Hot Farmer's Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

Quick Calculation

After confirming with Lin Xiaoyue that there was no mistake, they began to do the calculation.

Lin Xiaoyue only looked at it for a while before she frowned.

This... was too slow.

Remembering that there were no multiplication tables in ancient times, they could only rely on the abacus, Lin Xiaoyue understood immediately.

Since she had nothing to do, she took out a piece of paper and a pen, and began to calculate.

After a while, she came up with a total amount of 5,033.90 cents.

Then, Lin Xiaoyue checked again to make sure that she didn’t make a mistake.

After another incense stick was burnt out, the accountant finally came up with the result.

“It’s a total of 4 taels of silver and 8 cents. If there’s no problem, just sign it,” the accountant said to Lin Xiaoyue.

Liu Shi’s face lit up, but Lin Xiaoyue frowned.

“What’s wrong?” The accountant asked impatiently.

“There’s a mistake in the amount. You have miscalculated 126 cents,” Lin Xiaoyue said politely.

The accountant’s face stiffened, and his expression instantly turned ugly.

“Are you saying that I am scamming you?” He said angrily.

Just now, he saw that this girl was holding a strange pen and calculating on a piece of paper. She even looked as if she would get the answer very quickly.

She really didn’t know what she was talking about.

He was one of the most skilled accountants in Qingshi Town. Was she showing off in front of him?

“I didn’t mean that. Sir, why don’t you calculate again? You missed the payment for my 42 eggs,” Lin Xiaoyue said patiently.

She knew that this accountant probably didn’t have the intention to scam her. Otherwise, the result of the calculation wouldn’t have been exactly 126 cents less.

It was because of this that she talked to him so calmly. contemporary romance

The accountant paused. He quickly looked at the draft paper that he had just calculated.

Then, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten to add in the money for the eggs.

He could not believe himself.

He did not talk to Lin Xiaoyue. He quickly used the abacus and started to calculate again.

Liu Shi looked at her daughter with confusion. Seeing that her daughter gave her a look that said “it’s nothing”, she only stood by quietly.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at the room as he fiddled with the abacus while checking the draft that he had listed earlier. He frowned as he calculated.

Finally, after about ten minutes, he confirmed that he had indeed miscalculated 126 cents.

The cashier looked ashamed and angry. He did not expect that he had miscalculated. Not only that, he had even talked to the lady rudely just now.

An embarrassed and apologetic look flashed across his face. The cashier finally stood up and bowed to Lin Xiaoyue. “Miss, please forgive me. I miscalculated.”

Lin Xiaoyue did not hold on to it.

“It’s okay. You didn’t do it on purpose. Just give me the bill and I’ll sign it.”

“Eh, okay.” The cashier knew that he had made her wait for too long, so he quickly prepared the bill.

Lin Xiaoyue signed the new bill and then received the money.

After taking the money, the mother and daughter walked out of Ruyi Restaurant from the back of the kitchen through the back door that Chef Liu had pointed out.

The back door of Ruyi Restaurant opened to an alley.

After coming out, Liu Shi no longer felt restrained and smiled at her daughter.

“Yue’er, how did you do it? You actually calculated faster and more accurately than the accountant!” Liu Shi looked at her daughter with admiration.

“Master taught me. The calculation method in that world is simpler and faster than ours.” Lin Xiaoyue lied without blinking.

“Oh, then aren’t you better than the accountant?” Liu Shi was surprised.

“No, the accountant needs to do more than just calculation.” Lin Xiaoyue pulled her mother’s hand.

“It’s getting late, mom. Let’s go to the embroidery workshop first and then go shopping.”

“Okay,” Liu Shi thought about it and quickly replied.
