Returning to the show pavilion, Hua Zhuo sat down and said: "Baxiu, help me take off the golden bird crown quickly. It's so heavy that it hurts my neck from the pressure." The crown made of red gold is naturally heavy. Yes, even though the gold piece has been beaten very thin, Hua Zhuo is still young after all, and his body is not strong enough. It was really difficult to wear it for a long time.
Grandma Liu suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I am not the shameless old man like Hua Zhang who wants to save face in front of a little girl."
Qiqiao asked a little girl from outside to go to the kitchen to boil water. When she came back and saw this scene, she immediately laughed and said, "Sister Liushun is here to compete with us for work?"
The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water. After drinking water, Aunt Shuangcheng said something, and she could immediately draw inferences about other cases, especially the abacus beads. Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice. There are fifty stones of grain stored in Rongantang's rice warehouse. When asked how much rice she can exchange for, the little girl picks up her hands. I counted with my fingers for a long time, but without counting them all, I burst into tears.
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
Liu Shun complied, and Qiqiao brought tea. After she had eaten, she returned to Xikuoyuan.
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
Liushun was not annoyed and replied with a smile: "If you do better than me, I won't compete with you."
"But I also want to help Miss."
Liushun was not annoyed and replied with a smile: "If you do better than me, I won't compete with you."
"What's the prestige?" Hua Zhuo rubbed his sore neck and exhaled a long breath, "Qiqiao, I was so broke in a cold sweat when I ordered the kitchen to boil water. I almost felt embarrassed today."
Liushun looked solemn and said: "Madam has just taken the medicine and has fallen asleep now. Aunt Shuangcheng has already reported to Madam what happened at Qinshentang. Madam was very pleased and ordered me to send a message to Young Lady." Letter."
At that time, Hua Zhuo was a little dumbfounded. This was still the current situation of Rongan Hall. If it were the era of great-grandfather, when Rongan Hall was at its most glorious, what would it be like? Just imagining it made her feel like she was in a trance.
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.
"What's the prestige?" Hua Zhuo rubbed his sore neck and exhaled a long breath, "Qiqiao, I was so broke in a cold sweat when I ordered the kitchen to boil water. I almost felt embarrassed today."
Saying this, she couldn't refuse anymore, lest the young lady really wanted to send her back, so Grandma Liu took the hand of a little girl and left happily.
This was her mother teaching her how to manage the house. Her eyes turned red and she was silent for a long time before she said to Liushun: "Go back and tell your mother that I have kept your mother's teachings in mind. Now I can't say hello to my mother every day. I feel uneasy." , I can only pray for my mother in the show pavilion. I hope my mother can rest peacefully and stop worrying about me. I hope my mother will recover soon."
Thinking about it, if she hadn't lowered her body in time and escorted the chief steward to the sedan in person, I'm afraid her little face would have been lost long ago. Now that I think about it, I feel a little scared.
The curtain suddenly lifted, and it was Liushun who walked in.
The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water.

Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.
She felt a little guilty in her heart, as her aunt still had to serve her mother, and Grandma Liu was getting older. She could no longer stay so late in the evening. Only one hour of study every night was enough, and her rest could not be delayed.
"But I also want to help Miss."
"Hehe, why is the lady so embarrassed? She clearly performed well and made Madam very relieved."
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
Qiqiao patted her chest and echoed: "Yes, yes, luckily my aunt can speak, otherwise I would have almost been robbed of my job, and I would just stay here and have nothing to do with the young lady. She is crying and complaining. , I don’t dare to argue with her.”
The curtain suddenly lifted, and it was Liushun who walked in.
Only then did Hua Zhuo notice the time. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu came at Xu hour, and now it was almost Hai hour. She had been so focused on studying earlier that she didn't realize that two hours were about to pass in the blink of an eye.
"What's the prestige?" Hua Zhuo rubbed his sore neck and exhaled a long breath, "Qiqiao, I was so broke in a cold sweat when I ordered the kitchen to boil water. I almost felt embarrassed today."
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
Qiqiao asked a little girl from outside to go to the kitchen to boil water. When she came back and saw this scene, she immediately laughed and said, "Sister Liushun is here to compete with us for work?"
Saying this, she couldn't refuse anymore, lest the young lady really wanted to send her back, so Grandma Liu took the hand of a little girl and left happily.
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."
After laughing, Aunt Shuangcheng looked at the hourglass and said, "Miss, it's late at night, so we'll be here today. Aunt Liu and I will come back tomorrow night."
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms.
Qiqiao reacted quickly and said immediately: "I can't compare to you right now, but if you are willing to keep your secrets and teach me this tapping technique, within two months, I will definitely do better than you."
But the scenery and glory of the great-grandfather's era still failed to be passed down after all. Is it because the descendants like them are incompetent? Or is a family destined to never prosper for long? There will be rises and failures, but as long as people are still there, there will always be a day when things will rise again.
The curtain suddenly lifted, and it was Liushun who walked in.
"Miss, there's no need to hold on. Next time you go to Qinshentang, you can just do your hair. Why should it be so grand?"
Seeing Nanny Liu walking away, Hua Zhuo thought for a while and said to Qiqiao: "From now on, I will send a girl to pick up Nanny Liu every day."
The curtain suddenly lifted, and it was Liushun who walked in.
Qiqiao reacted quickly and said immediately: "I can't compare to you right now, but if you are willing to keep your secrets and teach me this tapping technique, within two months, I will definitely do better than you."
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water.

Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.

"Miss, just send someone to see Aunt Liu off. I brought my own maid to hold the lamp." Aunt Shuangcheng said with a smile.
Thinking about it, if she hadn't lowered her body in time and escorted the chief steward to the sedan in person, I'm afraid her little face would have been lost long ago. Now that I think about it, I feel a little scared.
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"

The crown made of red gold is naturally heavy. Yes, even though the gold piece has been beaten very thin, Hua Zhuo is still young after all, and his body is not strong enough. It was really difficult to wear it for a long time.
Qiqiao responded quickly.
So Baxiu cried even more sadly. She felt that she was really stupid.
Qiqiao patted her chest and echoed: "Yes, yes, luckily my aunt can speak, otherwise I would have almost been robbed of my job, and I would just stay here and have nothing to do with the young lady. She is crying and complaining. , I don’t dare to argue with her.”

Only then did Hua Zhuo notice the time. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu came at Xu hour, and now it was almost Hai hour. She had been so focused on studying earlier that she didn't realize that two hours were about to pass in the blink of an eye.
Liu Shun really didn't hide his secrets. While beating Hua Zhuo, he told Qiqiao the key points. Qiqiao listened carefully, but Baxiu was not very interested. He carefully put the golden bird crown into a brocade box and locked it. Into the box.
After laughing, Aunt Shuangcheng looked at the hourglass and said, "Miss, it's late at night, so we'll be here today. Aunt Liu and I will come back tomorrow night."
Qiqiao reacted quickly and said immediately: "I can't compare to you right now, but if you are willing to keep your secrets and teach me this tapping technique, within two months, I will definitely do better than you."
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice. There are fifty stones of grain stored in Rongantang's rice warehouse. When asked how much rice she can exchange for, the little girl picks up her hands. I counted with my fingers for a long time, but without counting them all, I burst into tears.
With a vague understanding, the hesitation and fear caused by her mother's miscarriage seemed to have dissipated a bit. Hua Zhuo regained her energy. In this life of hard work, maybe she, as weak as an ant, cannot change the general situation, but there are some subtleties. Things can definitely change. At least, she will try to keep people. As long as people are there, the family will not die. As long as people are there, everything lost will have a chance to be recovered.
Hua Zhuo scratched Baxiu's nose, turned to Aunt Shuangcheng and smiled: "Auntie still knows how to comfort people."
"If you want to learn, you won't be allowed to learn."
She opened the account book that Aunt Shuangcheng gave her. In fact, Hua Zhuo had already read this set of account books. The list of items collected in the warehouse was easy to understand. To be honest, she didn't know it without looking at it. It really surprised her at first glance. She was a little surprised. Although she had learned a little bit about her family's background from Aunt Liu, she didn't know how deep the foundation of Rong'an Hall was until she read this directory. Even in the blink of an eye, all her family's wealth was All the property was lost, but the collection in the warehouse was still enough for Rong'an Hall to live a prosperous life for three generations.
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
Liu Shun really didn't hide his secrets. While beating Hua Zhuo, he told Qiqiao the key points. Qiqiao listened carefully, but Baxiu was not very interested. He carefully put the golden bird crown into a brocade box and locked it. Into the box.
Liu Shun complied, and Qiqiao brought tea. After she had eaten, she returned to Xikuoyuan.
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.
Baxiu sobbed and choked. She was not crying because she was stupid. Anyway, she had known that she was stupid a long time ago and was used to it. What she was sad about was that she could not help the young lady. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu had been talking for almost two hours. , but she didn’t understand it at all.
She felt a little guilty in her heart, as her aunt still had to serve her mother, and Grandma Liu was getting older. She could no longer stay so late in the evening. Only one hour of study every night was enough, and her rest could not be delayed.
But Grandma Liu also said at the same time: "I don't need to send him off. Even if I am blind, I can still feel the way when walking in this courtyard in my life. What's more, the moonlight is good and bright tonight."
Hua Zhuo smiled as she listened to the back and forth between Liushun and Qiqiao. After Liushun finished knocking for her, Qiqiao diligently went to pour tea for her newly recognized "master" and then asked, "How is mother's health?"
"Okay, don't cry. Your talent is not in calculation but in needlework. I see that your embroidery work is much better than the other girls next to you. I'm afraid that within two years, even my aunt, I won't be able to compare with you." Shuang Shuang. Aunt Cheng pulled Baxiu aside and whispered comfort.
Baxiu sniffed. When he heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then stopped crying and nodded seriously: "Yes, I took away all the work, what will Qiqiao do?"
Liu Shun really didn't hide his secrets. While beating Hua Zhuo, he told Qiqiao the key points. Qiqiao listened carefully, but Baxiu was not very interested. He carefully put the golden bird crown into a brocade box and locked it. Into the box.
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.
"Baxiu, don't get into trouble in the future."
Liushun looked solemn and said: "Madam has just taken the medicine and has fallen asleep now. Aunt Shuangcheng has already reported to Madam what happened at Qinshentang. Madam was very pleased and ordered me to send a message to Young Lady." Letter."
How could Hua Zhuo let her go alone? No matter how bright the moonlight was, it was still not as bright as the day. If Aunt Liu didn't pay attention for a moment and fell somewhere, wouldn't she be even more regretful? Can’t you go out?”
"If you want to learn, you won't be allowed to learn."
Aunt Shuangcheng looked at her and couldn't help but smile. Although this girl was not smart or clever, she was cute and cute. She was really lovable.
Liu Shun really didn't hide his secrets. While beating Hua Zhuo, he told Qiqiao the key points. Qiqiao listened carefully, but Baxiu was not very interested. He carefully put the golden bird crown into a brocade box and locked it. Into the box.
After laughing, Aunt Shuangcheng looked at the hourglass and said, "Miss, it's late at night, so we'll be here today. Aunt Liu and I will come back tomorrow night."
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms.
Aunt Shuangcheng looked at her and couldn't help but smile. Although this girl was not smart or clever, she was cute and cute. She was really lovable.
Liu Shun complied, and Qiqiao brought tea. After she had eaten, she returned to Xikuoyuan.

I hope my mother will recover soon."
After dinner, Mammy Liu and Aunt Shuangcheng arrived hand in hand. Hua Zhuo had been waiting for a long time. It was late autumn and the night was quite cold, so he set up a soft couch in the Baoxia next to him, added hot tea and snacks, and lowered the curtains. To block the wind, candles were lit on all four walls, and the light bloomed. It was the time to sit down and talk.
Aunt Shuangcheng looked at her and couldn't help but smile. Although this girl was not smart or clever, she was cute and cute. She was really lovable.

Seeing Nanny Liu walking away, Hua Zhuo thought for a while and said to Qiqiao: "From now on, I will send a girl to pick up Nanny Liu every day."
In fact, Hua Zhuo couldn't figure it out for a while. She didn't know how to use an abacus, and she was too slow to pick up her fingers. However, she answered very skillfully. She said, "Of course it can be exchanged for fifty eight buckets of four liters of rice."

"Baxiu, don't get into trouble in the future."
"It's all my fault. I forgot the time. My aunt and my mother have many things to deal with tomorrow. Qiqiao, please order someone to light the lamp and send my aunt and my mother back home."
Returning to the show pavilion, Hua Zhuo sat down and said: "Baxiu, help me take off the golden bird crown quickly. It's so heavy that it hurts my neck from the pressure."

Qiqiao asked a little girl from outside to go to the kitchen to boil water. When she came back and saw this scene, she immediately laughed and said, "Sister Liushun is here to compete with us for work?"
As for the account books that recorded income and expenditure, she couldn't understand them at all. Although she recognized every word in them, she had never been in contact with them before and didn't know how to read them. She had to put these account books separately on the desk. It wasn't until Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu arrived that she seriously asked for advice.
"Miss, just send someone to see Aunt Liu off. I brought my own maid to hold the lamp." Aunt Shuangcheng said with a smile.
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice.

Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.

Qiqiao and Baxiu were also there to help read. After all, there were too many account books. Hua Zhuo could not read them all by himself in three days and three nights. The three girls listened carefully to what Aunt Shuangcheng was saying. The methods and techniques of making false accounts, while Grandma Liu would add some corresponding methods of making false accounts from time to time.
Liu Shun complied, and Qiqiao brought tea. After she had eaten, she returned to Xikuoyuan.

The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water. After drinking water, Aunt Shuangcheng said something, and she could immediately draw inferences about other cases, especially the abacus beads. Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.

After drinking water, Aunt Shuangcheng said something, and she could immediately draw inferences about other cases, especially the abacus beads. Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.
With a vague understanding, the hesitation and fear caused by her mother's miscarriage seemed to have dissipated a bit. Hua Zhuo regained her energy. In this life of hard work, maybe she, as weak as an ant, cannot change the general situation, but there are some subtleties. Things can definitely change. At least, she will try to keep people. As long as people are there, the family will not die. As long as people are there, everything lost will have a chance to be recovered.
She opened the account book that Aunt Shuangcheng gave her. In fact, Hua Zhuo had already read this set of account books. The list of items collected in the warehouse was easy to understand. To be honest, she didn't know it without looking at it. It really surprised her at first glance. She was a little surprised. Although she had learned a little bit about her family's background from Aunt Liu, she didn't know how deep the foundation of Rong'an Hall was until she read this directory. Even in the blink of an eye, all her family's wealth was All the property was lost, but the collection in the warehouse was still enough for Rong'an Hall to live a prosperous life for three generations.
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice. There are fifty stones of grain stored in Rongantang's rice warehouse. When asked how much rice she can exchange for, the little girl picks up her hands. I counted with my fingers for a long time, but without counting them all, I burst into tears.
Returning to the show pavilion, Hua Zhuo sat down and said: "Baxiu, help me take off the golden bird crown quickly. It's so heavy that it hurts my neck from the pressure." The crown made of red gold is naturally heavy. Yes, even though the gold piece has been beaten very thin, Hua Zhuo is still young after all, and his body is not strong enough. It was really difficult to wear it for a long time.
Qiqiao and Baxiu were also there to help read. After all, there were too many account books. Hua Zhuo could not read them all by himself in three days and three nights. The three girls listened carefully to what Aunt Shuangcheng was saying. The methods and techniques of making false accounts, while Grandma Liu would add some corresponding methods of making false accounts from time to time.
After laughing, Aunt Shuangcheng looked at the hourglass and said, "Miss, it's late at night, so we'll be here today. Aunt Liu and I will come back tomorrow night."

As long as people are there, the family will not die. As long as people are there, everything lost will have a chance to be recovered.
"It's all my fault. I forgot the time. My aunt and my mother have many things to deal with tomorrow. Qiqiao, please order someone to light the lamp and send my aunt and my mother back home."
Aunt Shuangcheng looked at her and couldn't help but smile. Although this girl was not smart or clever, she was cute and cute. She was really lovable.
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
In fact, Hua Zhuo couldn't figure it out for a while. She didn't know how to use an abacus, and she was too slow to pick up her fingers. However, she answered very skillfully. She said, "Of course it can be exchanged for fifty eight buckets of four liters of rice."
Qiqiao responded quickly.
At that time, Hua Zhuo was a little dumbfounded. This was still the current situation of Rongan Hall. If it were the era of great-grandfather, when Rongan Hall was at its most glorious, what would it be like? Just imagining it made her feel like she was in a trance.
Qiqiao responded quickly.
She felt a little guilty in her heart, as her aunt still had to serve her mother, and Grandma Liu was getting older. She could no longer stay so late in the evening. Only one hour of study every night was enough, and her rest could not be delayed.
"Hehe, why is the lady so embarrassed? She clearly performed well and made Madam very relieved."
"If you want to learn, you won't be allowed to learn."
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
After dinner, Mammy Liu and Aunt Shuangcheng arrived hand in hand. Hua Zhuo had been waiting for a long time. It was late autumn and the night was quite cold, so he set up a soft couch in the Baoxia next to him, added hot tea and snacks, and lowered the curtains. To block the wind, candles were lit on all four walls, and the light bloomed. It was the time to sit down and talk.
The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water.

"Okay, don't cry. Your talent is not in calculation but in needlework. I see that your embroidery work is much better than the other girls next to you. I'm afraid that within two years, even my aunt, I won't be able to compare with you." Shuang Shuang. Aunt Cheng pulled Baxiu aside and whispered comfort.
So Baxiu cried even more sadly. She felt that she was really stupid.
So Baxiu cried even more sadly. She felt that she was really stupid.
Baxiu sniffed. When he heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then stopped crying and nodded seriously: "Yes, I took away all the work, what will Qiqiao do?"
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.

"Hehe, why is the lady so embarrassed? She clearly performed well and made Madam very relieved."
Thinking about it, if she hadn't lowered her body in time and escorted the chief steward to the sedan in person, I'm afraid her little face would have been lost long ago. Now that I think about it, I feel a little scared.
Her words immediately made everyone laugh, and Baxiu even blushed and glared at her coquettishly.
"Okay, don't cry. Your talent is not in calculation but in needlework. I see that your embroidery work is much better than the other girls next to you.

Qiqiao reacted quickly and said immediately: "I can't compare to you right now, but if you are willing to keep your secrets and teach me this tapping technique, within two months, I will definitely do better than you."
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.
"But I also want to help Miss."
"But I also want to help Miss."
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice. There are fifty stones of grain stored in Rongantang's rice warehouse. When asked how much rice she can exchange for, the little girl picks up her hands. I counted with my fingers for a long time, but without counting them all, I burst into tears.
"What a silly child." Aunt Shuangcheng saw her look like this and vaguely saw her own appearance back then. She couldn't help but feel soft in her heart. She took her into her arms, gently stroked her hair, and whispered: "Everyone. You have your own strengths. You are not as skillful as Qiqiao, but you are the pistachio of the lady. You are good at needlework. From now on, you will only take care of the lady's clothes, shoes and socks. Let Qiqiao share the accounting. Otherwise, you If you take over all the work, will Qiqiao just eat and do nothing and become a slacker?"
Baxiu sobbed and choked. She was not crying because she was stupid. Anyway, she had known that she was stupid a long time ago and was used to it. What she was sad about was that she could not help the young lady. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu had been talking for almost two hours. , but she didn’t understand it at all.
But Grandma Liu also said at the same time: "I don't need to send him off. Even if I am blind, I can still feel the way when walking in this courtyard in my life. What's more, the moonlight is good and bright tonight."
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."

Otherwise, you If you take over all the work, will Qiqiao just eat and do nothing and become a slacker?"
"What's the prestige?" Hua Zhuo rubbed his sore neck and exhaled a long breath, "Qiqiao, I was so broke in a cold sweat when I ordered the kitchen to boil water. I almost felt embarrassed today."
Baxiu sobbed and choked. She was not crying because she was stupid. Anyway, she had known that she was stupid a long time ago and was used to it. What she was sad about was that she could not help the young lady. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu had been talking for almost two hours. , but she didn’t understand it at all.
This was her mother teaching her how to manage the house. Her eyes turned red and she was silent for a long time before she said to Liushun: "Go back and tell your mother that I have kept your mother's teachings in mind. Now I can't say hello to my mother every day. I feel uneasy." , I can only pray for my mother in the show pavilion. I hope my mother can rest peacefully and stop worrying about me. I hope my mother will recover soon."
Baxiu sniffed. When he heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then stopped crying and nodded seriously: "Yes, I took away all the work, what will Qiqiao do?"
As for the account books that recorded income and expenditure, she couldn't understand them at all. Although she recognized every word in them, she had never been in contact with them before and didn't know how to read them. She had to put these account books separately on the desk. It wasn't until Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu arrived that she seriously asked for advice.
Grandma Liu suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I am not the shameless old man like Hua Zhang who wants to save face in front of a little girl."
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.
Hua Zhuo smiled as she listened to the back and forth between Liushun and Qiqiao. After Liushun finished knocking for her, Qiqiao diligently went to pour tea for her newly recognized "master" and then asked, "How is mother's health?"
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.

Liushun looked solemn and said: "Madam has just taken the medicine and has fallen asleep now. Aunt Shuangcheng has already reported to Madam what happened at Qinshentang. Madam was very pleased and ordered me to send a message to Young Lady." Letter."
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.
Aunt Shuangcheng looked at her and couldn't help but smile. Although this girl was not smart or clever, she was cute and cute. She was really lovable.
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."
Only then did Hua Zhuo notice the time. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu came at Xu hour, and now it was almost Hai hour. She had been so focused on studying earlier that she didn't realize that two hours were about to pass in the blink of an eye.
Thinking about it, if she hadn't lowered her body in time and escorted the chief steward to the sedan in person, I'm afraid her little face would have been lost long ago. Now that I think about it, I feel a little scared.

"Baxiu, don't get into trouble in the future."
This was her mother teaching her how to manage the house.

The curtain suddenly lifted, and it was Liushun who walked in.

Hua Zhuo scratched Baxiu's nose, turned to Aunt Shuangcheng and smiled: "Auntie still knows how to comfort people."
After dinner, Mammy Liu and Aunt Shuangcheng arrived hand in hand. Hua Zhuo had been waiting for a long time.

Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
Qiqiao patted her chest and echoed: "Yes, yes, luckily my aunt can speak, otherwise I would have almost been robbed of my job, and I would just stay here and have nothing to do with the young lady. She is crying and complaining. , I don’t dare to argue with her.”
Thinking about it, if she hadn't lowered her body in time and escorted the chief steward to the sedan in person, I'm afraid her little face would have been lost long ago. Now that I think about it, I feel a little scared.

Seeing Nanny Liu walking away, Hua Zhuo thought for a while and said to Qiqiao: "From now on, I will send a girl to pick up Nanny Liu every day."
"Miss, there's no need to hold on. Next time you go to Qinshentang, you can just do your hair. Why should it be so grand?"
"Okay, don't cry. Your talent is not in calculation but in needlework. I see that your embroidery work is much better than the other girls next to you. I'm afraid that within two years, even my aunt, I won't be able to compare with you." Shuang Shuang. Aunt Cheng pulled Baxiu aside and whispered comfort.
"Miss, there's no need to hold on. Next time you go to Qinshentang, you can just do your hair. Why should it be so grand?"
How could Hua Zhuo let her go alone? No matter how bright the moonlight was, it was still not as bright as the day. If Aunt Liu didn't pay attention for a moment and fell somewhere, wouldn't she be even more regretful? Can’t you go out?”
Seeing Nanny Liu walking away, Hua Zhuo thought for a while and said to Qiqiao: "From now on, I will send a girl to pick up Nanny Liu every day."
Baxiu sobbed and choked. She was not crying because she was stupid. Anyway, she had known that she was stupid a long time ago and was used to it.

But the scenery and glory of the great-grandfather's era still failed to be passed down after all. Is it because the descendants like them are incompetent? Or is a family destined to never prosper for long? There will be rises and failures, but as long as people are still there, there will always be a day when things will rise again.
This was her mother teaching her how to manage the house. Her eyes turned red and she was silent for a long time before she said to Liushun: "Go back and tell your mother that I have kept your mother's teachings in mind. Now I can't say hello to my mother every day. I feel uneasy." , I can only pray for my mother in the show pavilion. I hope my mother can rest peacefully and stop worrying about me. I hope my mother will recover soon."
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
At that time, Hua Zhuo was a little dumbfounded. This was still the current situation of Rongan Hall. If it were the era of great-grandfather, when Rongan Hall was at its most glorious, what would it be like? Just imagining it made her feel like she was in a trance.

Grandma Liu suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I am not the shameless old man like Hua Zhang who wants to save face in front of a little girl."
The three girls learned at the same time, and the one who learned Qiqiao the fastest was not surprising. She has a very clever temperament, and when faced with these numbers of three pounds, five taels, ten stones and eight buckets, she was like a fish in the water. After drinking water, Aunt Shuangcheng said something, and she could immediately draw inferences about other cases, especially the abacus beads. Aunt Liu demonstrated it once and recited a few corresponding formulas. She carefully noted it down, sat down with the abacus and fiddled with a few. Next, the abacus beads were beaten into shape.
Baxiu chuckled and hurried forward to help her take off the golden bird crown. He only joked: "Miss wears the crown and looks majestic. How can she be tired?"
Qiqiao took the abacus beads she had just learned, clicked them, and read out a number: "Forty-two stone meters."
"Miss, just send someone to see Aunt Liu off. I brought my own maid to hold the lamp." Aunt Shuangcheng said with a smile.

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms.
Liushun said, stretched out his hands, clasped them into fists, and struck her body gently, which made Hua Zhuo scream in pleasure.

Qiqiao and Baxiu were also there to help read. After all, there were too many account books. Hua Zhuo could not read them all by himself in three days and three nights. The three girls listened carefully to what Aunt Shuangcheng was saying. The methods and techniques of making false accounts, while Grandma Liu would add some corresponding methods of making false accounts from time to time.
At that time, Hua Zhuo was a little dumbfounded. This was still the current situation of Rongan Hall. If it were the era of great-grandfather, when Rongan Hall was at its most glorious, what would it be like? Just imagining it made her feel like she was in a trance.
Grandma Liu suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I am not the shameless old man like Hua Zhang who wants to save face in front of a little girl."
But Grandma Liu also said at the same time: "I don't need to send him off. Even if I am blind, I can still feel the way when walking in this courtyard in my life. What's more, the moonlight is good and bright tonight."
Hua Zhuo scratched Baxiu's nose, turned to Aunt Shuangcheng and smiled: "Auntie still knows how to comfort people."
Saying this, she couldn't refuse anymore, lest the young lady really wanted to send her back, so Grandma Liu took the hand of a little girl and left happily.
On the contrary, Baxiu is simply a model of stupidity. One stone of grain can be exchanged for eight buckets of four liters of rice. There are fifty stones of grain stored in Rongantang's rice warehouse. When asked how much rice she can exchange for, the little girl picks up her hands. I counted with my fingers for a long time, but without counting them all, I burst into tears.
Only then did Hua Zhuo notice the time. Aunt Shuangcheng and Aunt Liu came at Xu hour, and now it was almost Hai hour. She had been so focused on studying earlier that she didn't realize that two hours were about to pass in the blink of an eye.
With a vague understanding, the hesitation and fear caused by her mother's miscarriage seemed to have dissipated a bit. Hua Zhuo regained her energy. In this life of hard work, maybe she, as weak as an ant, cannot change the general situation, but there are some subtleties. Things can definitely change. At least, she will try to keep people. As long as people are there, the family will not die. As long as people are there, everything lost will have a chance to be recovered.
"It's all my fault. I forgot the time. My aunt and my mother have many things to deal with tomorrow. Qiqiao, please order someone to light the lamp and send my aunt and my mother back home."
So Baxiu cried even more sadly. She felt that she was really stupid.
When Hua Zhuo saw her, he was overjoyed and said, "You came just in time. Come and help me. I'm so exhausted on my neck and shoulders."
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.
Returning to the show pavilion, Hua Zhuo sat down and said: "Baxiu, help me take off the golden bird crown quickly. It's so heavy that it hurts my neck from the pressure." The crown made of red gold is naturally heavy. Yes, even though the gold piece has been beaten very thin, Hua Zhuo is still young after all, and his body is not strong enough. It was really difficult to wear it for a long time.
Seeing Nanny Liu walking away, Hua Zhuo thought for a while and said to Qiqiao: "From now on, I will send a girl to pick up Nanny Liu every day."
Hua Zhuo opened it and saw that there were only four small characters on it: kindness and power.
Qiqiao and Baxiu were also there to help read. After all, there were too many account books. Hua Zhuo could not read them all by himself in three days and three nights. The three girls listened carefully to what Aunt Shuangcheng was saying. The methods and techniques of making false accounts, while Grandma Liu would add some corresponding methods of making false accounts from time to time.
"Baxiu, don't get into trouble in the future."
"Hehe, why is the lady so embarrassed? She clearly performed well and made Madam very relieved."
With a vague understanding, the hesitation and fear caused by her mother's miscarriage seemed to have dissipated a bit. Hua Zhuo regained her energy. In this life of hard work, maybe she, as weak as an ant, cannot change the general situation, but there are some subtleties. Things can definitely change. At least, she will try to keep people. As long as people are there, the family will not die. As long as people are there, everything lost will have a chance to be recovered.
Liu Shun complied, and Qiqiao brought tea. After she had eaten, she returned to Xikuoyuan.
Qiqiao responded quickly.
But the scenery and glory of the great-grandfather's era still failed to be passed down after all. Is it because the descendants like them are incompetent? Or is a family destined to never prosper for long? There will be rises and failures, but as long as people are still there, there will always be a day when things will rise again.
So I became happy again, and simply ignored the account books. I picked up the sewing box, sat on the other side of the soft couch, and started busy with stitches.
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms.
"What's the prestige?" Hua Zhuo rubbed his sore neck and exhaled a long breath, "Qiqiao, I was so broke in a cold sweat when I ordered the kitchen to boil water. I almost felt embarrassed today."
