Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Chapter 143 I'm an experienced person

So, Cuizhu was heartbroken. It didn't matter that she was scolded by Aunt Zheng. The most important thing was Zheng Laoshi's attitude. It was obviously not her fault, but he still followed his mother's wishes.

He began to resent Zheng Laoshi in his heart, and asked himself, since he started working for the young mistress, has the young mistress ever treated him badly? No!

This is obviously Tianxilou's doing because they are jealous of the shop's good business. If it happened to someone else, the same thing would happen. It's not the young lady's fault.

The young mistress not only asked a doctor to treat you, but also gave him money for medicine and asked her to take care of him. If this happened to any other family, which boss would be so responsible and would just give some money and be done with it.

Zheng Laoshi was also ashamed. Without waiting for his explanation, Cuizhu packed her luggage, left home at night, and returned to the prefectural government.

Lu Yun couldn't help but be shocked when she heard this. Zheng Laoshi seemed like a very honest man, so how could he have such a mother?

She was making trouble without reason. She offended Cuizhu. Wasn't she afraid that Zheng Laoshi's job would fail?

Lin Yuxi was also furious after hearing this. She slammed the table and cursed, "Any maid around me is more valuable than her, but she scolded my maid. Forget it, Zheng Laoshi is unreliable, don't be too sad, I will find you a better one later."

Cuizhu knew the truth, but her relationship with Zheng Laoshi was not just a one- or two-year affair, so how could she withdraw from it all at once?

She responded with a whimper, but when she turned around she still had a sad look on her face.

Lin Yuxi sighed. Everything in this world is easy to deal with except family affairs and emotional matters. It is difficult for a third party to interfere in the relationship between two people. She can only give some advice. The final decision depends on the parties involved.

When they returned to the room, Yang Chenchuan was looking at the account book. Lin Yuxi walked over and took a look, and her head felt dizzy.

The ancients wrote with brushes. Not only were the characters large and paper-consuming, but they were also all written in complex characters. In addition, there were no abacus in that era, so if they wanted to calculate, they had to write down each character one by one with pen and ink to add and subtract, which was extremely time-consuming. How could she, a modern woman, tolerate this?

Yang Chenchuan looked up from the account book and happened to see Lin Yuxi holding her forehead with her hands, so he asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Do you have a headache looking at the account book?"

"Yes!" Lin Yuxi was very honest.

Yang Chenchuan raised his eyebrows. His wife could cook, do business, and read. He didn't believe that she couldn't do accounting, so he asked again: "What's bothering you, wife? Do you want your husband to share the burden with you?"

Lin Yuxi curled her lips. She didn't need him to share the burden, so she pulled his arm and said, "Husband, how should we look at this account and settle it?"

Yang Chenchuan looked at her suspiciously, pinched her nose and said, "My wife is very good at business, and every household in Yingshan City knows about it. How come you have changed after you got married?"

Lin Yuxi pulled his hand off and pouted, "That's the shopkeeper's credit. How dare I take credit for it? But I do have a good idea. If you want to learn, I'll teach you."

Yang Chenchuan was in the mood. This was his first time doing business, and he learned how to read the account book from the shopkeeper these days.

Lin Yuxi has enough to do every day, so he doesn't want to bother her, but since she brought it up on her own initiative, wouldn't it be unfair for him not to take the opportunity to learn a thing or two from her?

"Appreciate further details."

Lin Yuxi did what she said and immediately taught him Arabic numerals and multiplication and division methods. Originally, she thought that Yang Chenchuan might need some time to accept Arabic numerals, but unexpectedly, in less than a quarter of an hour, he had mastered them all, and multiplication and division were also easy for him.

This surprised Lin Yuxi. She didn't expect that he had such a strong ability to accept things. Even if she listed a few examples, he seemed to be able to give an answer with just a twinkle in his eyes.

This was a big blow to Lin Yuxi. She thought back to the time when it took her three or four years to learn the multiplication and division conversion methods. She couldn't help but sigh again. It was indeed the Chinese-style education that was harmful.

Yang Chenchuan was amazed at these new numbers and conversion methods, and became even more curious about Lin Yuxi. How many surprises would she give him? It seemed like the new things in her mind would never be exhausted, and they would pop up from time to time to scare you.

The following calculations were much easier. Yang Chenchuan finished reading the two account books in less than two quarters of an hour. The Lin family's Niangzi store had a total profit of 108 taels in four days, which included the profit from mooncakes. Zui Furong opened the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, two days later than the Niangzi store, and its profit was even higher, at more than 180 taels.

Zui Furong is somewhat different from other restaurants. Its business cycle is ten days, and its signature dishes are different every day. There are also various pastries, which are also different every day, and its business cycle is five days.

Moreover, the dishes and pastries were very fresh and tasted great, which attracted many people. The most important point was that every customer had a chance to squeeze a lemon. As long as they squeezed out a drop, they could get a plate of the signature dish for free. Of course, the lemon was not a whole lemon, but one that had been squeezed dry. This was a trick that was often seen in bars, and in ancient times, it was also for the sake of novelty and fun.

Yang Chenchuan threw the account book away, pulled Lin Yuxi and started to act coquettishly, "Wife, I'm hungry!"

Lin Yuxi's heart trembled when he called her. She raised her eyes to look at the sky outside the window. It was already time for lunch, no wonder he was hungry. She pinched him twice and scolded him for being frivolous. Just as she was about to push the door, she heard Lvyun and Cuiping talking in a low voice outside.

"It's getting late, why haven't the Madam and the Master come out yet? The food is getting cold," Cuiping asked.

"Shh, keep your voice down," Luyun made a gesture for silence, then pointed at the study, winked and smiled brightly.

Cuiping opened her eyes wide in astonishment, and suddenly raised her voice, spewing out a series of questions, "You mean the young master and the young mistress are in the bridal chamber? But there is no bed in there! Are they sleeping on that small couch? Wouldn't it be too crowded...?"

Lu Yun glared at her, pouted and scolded, "Stupid, it's because of the crowd that it's even harder to separate. I've been there, I can't be wrong."

Cuiping quickly covered Luyun's mouth, her face flushed like a big red flower. She glared at her fiercely and looked around to see if anyone heard her. Luyun also felt that her voice was a little loud, so she bit her lip and said nothing, but her eyes blinked playfully, which made Cuiping feel powerless.

Cuiping was speechless. She was still shouting loudly. She was not afraid of disturbing the young master and young mistress inside. She even dared to say that she was an experienced person. How could an unmarried woman like her say such things? If it got out, it would cause trouble for the young mistress again. She was too wild!

Lin Yuxi's hands were stretched in the air, her face was as red as an apple, even her ears were red, she was so embarrassed, these two girls were really imagining things, she really wanted to sew Luyun up, if there was anything to say, why not just keep it in her heart, why did she have to say it out loud.

She turned around slightly and glanced at Yang Chenchuan, only to see that he was beaming with joy, and whispered in her ear: "Madam, why can't you let go of something that even the maids understand? Should we..."

Lin Yuxi stepped on his foot fiercely, glared at him with a red face, opened the door, walked out, and snorted coldly: "How come I don't know that my maid is an experienced person? Who can you find to be your experienced person?"

Luyun originally meant to say that she had ruined the young master's good deeds several times, and that she must never disturb the young master and the young mistress when they were intimate together, otherwise she would be killed by the young master's cold eyes. This was what she meant by someone with experience. Unexpectedly, the speaker was unintentional, but the listener took her words seriously and misunderstood them. Her face immediately turned red, and she ran away with a scream.

Lin Yuxi was amused and speechless. She looked at her back, shaking her head and laughing.
