Chapter 204
The account book in Li Qingyou's hand was written down by herself from memory, and the original account book was kept in the hands of Manager Cao on the grounds that he was the manager of the Shen family and he was literate and could calculate accounts. He used his actions to tell Li Qingyou that she was just a useless person.
The fact that all power is in his hands.
Of course, these are just appearances. As for the true meaning of this, Manager Cao knew it in his heart, and Li Qingyou also knew it, but Manager Cao probably didn't know whether she knew it, or rather, it didn't matter to him whether she knew it or not.
Regardless of whether Manager Cao means something, Li Qingyou definitely does. In Shen San's eyes, this business is just a ladder, but she really wants to find the foundation for her career.
This requires careful consideration.
I took the brush and dipped it in some ink, and continued to write and do calculations on the grass paper next to it. The brush was not good at this point. It was not as good as a pen or a marker pen that could write down in one go. To write a few words, I had to dip it in the ink once.
Li Qingyou sighed at the large ball of ink that dripped onto the paper, and then removed some of the over-moistened ink.
Looking at the accounts in the pen, judging from the price quoted by Manager Cao and the price she inquired about privately, it was more than double. This is still the market price. Those who purchase in bulk like them will get a lower price.
"It's really dark." Li Qingyou smiled and shook her head.
Adi didn't know when he came in. Xiaoshan Niang brought him a basin of water to wash his face and feet. Now he was sitting by the kang and looking at the brush in Li Qingyou's hand and the... words she wrote?
I don't know if he was unhappy after being made to stand, or because he was tired from standing, but Adi didn't say anything, he just stared at Li Qingyou's hands and words.
After a while, Li Qingyou sighed and put down the pen, "You have been staring at me for a long time. Besides the two of us, there are many other things in this room, such as cabinets, quilts, etc.
Could you please take care of their emotions a little bit?"
She knew why Adi was staring at her endlessly. It was just the way he held the pen and the words. She admitted that the posture was wrong, but this way her wrist would not be tired when writing, and her attention would not always be attracted by the sore wrist.
.
As for speaking, there is really no way around it. From preschool to graduate school, she studied for almost twenty years, and all she learned was simplified Chinese. If she was asked to write in English or code or something, she would have no problem, but this classical Chinese
I really can't play it.
She was even despised by her dear sister Adi because of this matter... It seemed a bit confusing, well, she was just despised, although Adi never said it out loud.
Adi touched his nose and turned his head. In fact, he wanted to ask why the house and land were taken away, but he felt that Sister Qingyou probably wouldn't tell her if he asked her. After all, in her heart, he always
There's nothing wrong with that, kid.
After keeping accounts for a long time, Li Qingyou was also tired. She had to get up early tomorrow and she had to ensure enough sleep.
Looking at my brother again, I saw that his feet were still in the basin, but he was already asleep on his side.
This child, Li Qingyou shook his head, got up, cleared away the kang table, account books and ink, and spread the bedding. Then he took Adi's feet out of the basin, wiped them dry with cotton cloth, and put him in the bed.
Then he came out of Xili Room.
Liu Xiaosan didn't go home tonight, so Li Qingyou planned to let him sleep here, but there were only two bedrooms in the house, one for her and her brother, and one for Xiaoshan Niang, leaving only the main room.
"It's okay. I'll just put these two stools together and find a board to put them up." Liu Xiaosan had already planned it. It won't be cold anyway, so he just needs a place to sleep.
"Don't mention it, that's too much. Besides, it's not convenient for you as a young man to have women in this room." Xiaoshan Niang said: "Why don't you go to my house to sleep for the night? Xiaoshan is not at home either, so you can still do it.
Help me look at the house."
This is just right.
Liu Xiaosan didn't know where the Zhao family was, so Xiaoshan Niang sent him there first, then asked Li Qingyou to go to bed first, "I'll be back in a while."
Having said that, Li Qingyou is not too reassured. After all, Xiaoshan Niang is a woman and a widow. She still has her charm in her thirties, so it is not safe to walk alone at night.
And Xiaoshanniang is afraid of the dark.
"I'll go with you. I'll be with you when I get back." Li Qingyou had already come out of the house as she spoke. She was still wearing men's clothes during the day. A man and a woman are always safer than two women.
"Then brother..." Xiaoshan Niang glanced into the room.
"It's okay. I'm already asleep. Besides, I'll be back in a while." Li Qingyou said.
Xiaoshan Niang was a little scared at first, so she stopped talking and the three of them walked out of the yard together.
Walking two blocks east from Li's house is Zhao's house. The three of them chatted and walked forward. Not long after they walked out, they were stopped by a group of patrollers, "Stop, who is staying here?"
,don’t you know the curfew?”
Li Qingyou was stunned for a moment, Qingshan County is a small place, the so-called curfew is in name only, and no one cares about it.
Looking at it, there seem to be quite a few people patrolling tonight?
At this time, the patrolling yamen officer had already arrived. Li Qingyou looked a little familiar to this person, and suddenly remembered that when she went to the yamen that day, it was this person who took the money but kicked her away.
Look at his angry face, has he been kicked out by his wife again?
"You guys, who are you by name..." The leader of the Yamen was about to scold him when he was stopped by Zhang Tieniu from behind. He whispered something. The man looked at Li Qingyou and said nothing more.
He waved his hand and told them to leave quickly.
What happened to this posture?
Li Qingyou wanted to inquire but felt it was inconvenient, so she could only retreat to the back and wait for the government officials to pass by.
When Zhang Tieniu walked in front, neither of them looked at each other, just like strangers. Zhubashan, who was following behind, shook his head and sighed, fell back a few steps to Li Qingyou, lowered his voice and whispered a few words quickly before chasing after him.
The officials left.
It wasn't until the government officials walked away that Xiaoshan Niang approached Li Qingyou in shock, "What's wrong? What did you say? Did something happen?"
Li Qingyou didn't say anything, and Xiaoshan Niang saw that her expression was not right, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Liu Xiaosan on the side lowered his head and did not dare to take a breath. He had heard what the yamen servant had just said to Li Qingyou. Two gangs of rogues from the east and west of the city gathered together to cause trouble and caused quite a stir. Many people were
Injured.
Without asking, he knew that this was a fight between Xia Shanhu and Zhang Sipao. When he thought that he was involved in this incident and had half of his relationship, Liu Xiaosan felt very excited.
Although he didn't know why he was excited.
