Ning Yuan stood at the door and looked around, the room was very small, but because there was only one plate of kang, there were only two kang tables, one large and one small, on the kang, and Li Tong next to the kang, the hut was also very spacious.
There was no place to sit except on the kang, so Ning Yuan unceremoniously took off his shoes and sat opposite Li Tong.
Li Tong turned the pages of the account and planned to discuss, engrossed, Ning Yuan finished looking at the room, his eyes fell on Li Tong, and he looked at her from top to bottom.
The shiny hair was tied in a simple bun, and a red gold and red sapphire was inserted on one side of the bun to cover the temples, and the earrings on the ears were also red gold and gems, with pigeon's blood rubby on one side and cornflower sapphire on the other.
The red gold yellow can reflects the luxury of the red sapphire, coupled with the dense and crisp sound of the abacus, Ning Yuan wants to laugh inexplicably, this Li girl is really interesting.
Li Tong quickly finished turning the account page, dipped the pen in ink, and wrote down the number on the account page, Ning Yuan leaned forward and stretched his neck, watching Li Tong write, Li Tong finished writing a few lines, blew, saw that the words were dry, and closed the account book.
"You don't have to take the Xiucai test, how can you practice a book" Ning Yuan sighed, and was very sorry that Li Tong actually wrote a book with incomparable rules.
"Although you don't need to take the Xiucai test, you have to keep accounts, and you have to use the main book in the account book."
Li Tong closed the account book and replied to Ning Yuan's words.
"Just for bookkeeping" Ning Yuan didn't believe it at all.
"Hmm."
Li Tong snorted, picked up a small silver bell from the small table next to him and shook it a few times, the door curtain was lifted, Shuilian and Lumei came in, took away the account book, and put tea and snacks up.
Shui Lian and Lu Mei packed up and just exited, Ning Yuan couldn't wait to ask: "It's really for the bookkeeping practice."
"Yes."
Li Tong poured a cup of tea and pushed it to Ning Yuan, "Just like your Ning family, you build a family with martial arts, your children will practice kung fu from the time they can walk, and they will go to the battlefield to fight and experience when they are older, like the Ji family, poetry and books are heirlooms, and the children will read and write articles since they can walk, and then they will go to the Xiu test to take the examination for the Jinshi, a merchant like ours who makes a living from business, and the children must learn to plan and keep accounts from the time they can walk, and when they grow up, they will look at the accounts and do business, isn't it all like this?"
Ning Yuan stayed for a moment, and laughed, "Miss Li, this is not self-abandoning, I mean, the world is stupid, and I am also stupid, don't mind, girl." ” "What do you have to mind?"
Li Tong took a sip of tea, picked up a piece of dim sum and took a bite.
Ning Yuan was stunned when he heard it, what did he have to mind, this sentence made his heart inexplicably warm.
"This dim sum is from the class building, or your embroidery workshop from the embroidery workshop, the tea and snacks are surprisingly good."
Ning Yuan couldn't tell why he wanted to divert the topic, so he took a piece of dim sum and threw it into his mouth, and asked vaguely while chewing.
"This is made by my girl, and the dim sum in the embroidery workshop is passable, after all, it is made from a cauldron of a few catties and more than ten catties, no matter how delicate it is, it is limited."
Li Tong pushed another plate of dim sum in front of Ning Yuan, "You taste this." ” Ning Yuan picked one up and threw it into his mouth without hesitation, chewing it a few times, "This is a bean bag" "Yes."
Li Tong's smile bloomed, "You can eat it, it doesn't seem to be too far off, it's a little smaller, I think the lard is too greasy, and the bean paste is put in peanut butter, but not lard." ” Ning Yuan ate one, ate another, one bite at a time, and ate the five or six bean buns on the plate in the blink of an eye, still unsatisfied, "It's still delicious lard, and peanut butter is not fragrant." ” Li Tong only smiled and didn't answer him.
"This was brought to me on a special trip" Ning Yuan pointed to the snack plate, Li Tong nodded, Ning Yuan was a little surprised, but couldn't help laughing, "Shouldn't you say that it wasn't brought to me on a special trip, but by the way" "What's the point of that" Li Tong interrupted Ning Yuan's words and smiled, Ning Yuan snorted, "Also, the two of us have a friendship, don't have duplicity, it's best to say anything directly, how about the account check?"
Ning Yuan's last sentence asked Li Tong had a feeling of flashing his waist, the first few sentences, shouldn't the last sentence ask her what is the matter with him, how did she ask how the account was checked "Fortunately, thanks to the blessing of the Seventh Master this year, I earned a few taels more silver than last year."
"Thanks to me is the blessing of the embroidery workshop, as long as you take a few taels of silver out, the embroidery workshop can take care of everything properly, those women like what they don't like, the embroidery workshop knows clearly, I turned around and said that it was my confession, it was my TOEFL, how much heart was saved, this embroidery workshop is you take care of" Li Tong listened to him talk farther and farther, so he had to pull back, "A-Niang take care of it, I just came over to look at the account, it's not far from Layue, you are alone in the capital for the New Year."
"Hmm."
Hearing Li Tong ask this, Ning Yuan's face sank obviously.
"Are you going to see your eldest sister" Li Tong then asked, Ning Yuan was stunned, and looked at Li Tong's gaze with a bit of inquiry, "Eldest princess" "It's not her, I'm here to see the account, since I've entered the city, I'll see you by the way, say a few words, I don't mean anything else."
Li Tong interrupted Ning Yuan's words.
"Oh, it's teary-eyed to go, don't go."
Ning Yuan replied quickly, and Li Tong was silent for a moment, "I remember you said that your kung fu was first taught by your eldest sister, and she also took you to war, if your eldest sister didn't become a queen and married someone else, wouldn't she be the same as when she was a girl?"
"The eldest sister wants to be a female general wholeheartedly, Daddy doesn't care, Auntie feels that the eldest sister is spoiled by Daddy, even if she gets married, as long as it is not like now, the eldest sister must be the same as when she was a girl, leading a team of people, the same as the eldest brother and the second brother."
Ning Yuan replied, looking at Li Tong's gaze with solemnity, in his cognition, the girl Li in front of him didn't talk much, and there was no nonsense in the few words, she must have a deep meaning when she said this.
"That day, I heard you say that your eldest sister taught you kung fu and took you to fight, and then I heard you talk about a war, I just thought about it, I felt terrible, if I was like your eldest sister to step on the flesh and blood, the first breath cut off other people's heads, the next breath of their own head may be cut off by others, even if it is not their own battlefield, just watch such a scene on the side, not to mention watching, just think about it, I feel unbearable, if someone forces me to go to the battlefield, like your eldest sister, I will definitely throw a rope and hang myself."
Li Tong said as he looked at Ning Yuan, Ning Yuan frowned slightly, he couldn't think of what she meant by telling him.
"I learned abacus from A-Niang since I was a child, checked the account books, and listened to A-Niang talk about the way to do business, and later when I was older, A-Niang gave me a few shops to learn to do business, and then took over other businesses
