Before exile, the imperial concubine emptied the palace

Chapter 50 Is it really the first meeting?

Lin Xiaoyue sneered, what are you pulling?Don't cry until the end!
She smiled and said, "Let's each do ten arithmetic problems, and see who can do it faster!"

Wang Fugui felt that Lin Xiaoyue's smile was extremely dazzling, how many women can do arithmetic?Most of them are the daughters of rich families. They learned it for the future when they go to their husband's house to be in charge of the house keys. The girl in front of her is plain-looking, and she wears linen clothes that are only worn by farmers. Can she be considered a ghost?

He ran to fetch paper and pen, and said, "Miss Mu Yao, it's too late for you to regret it now!"

"Let's leave this to you!" Lin Xiaoyue took the pen and paper, walked directly to the table and began to write.

The writing brush is not what she is good at, it writes crookedly, not as comfortable as she writes with charcoal pens, but now she has no time to worry about this matter, she just ignores the numbers that look like earthworms crawling, and writes down ten arithmetic problem.

"I've finished writing!"

Wang Fugui also stopped the pen in his hand and said, "I've finished writing too!"

Lin Xiaoyue directly took the paper in front of Wang Fugui, it was all addition and subtraction of three or four digits, it was a piece of cake!
"Treasurer Wang, then I'll start answering the questions, please join me!"

Wang Fugui took the paper in front of Lin Xiaoyue with his eyes wide open. When he saw the title on the paper clearly, he was stunned!
"You, what are you?"

Lin Xiaoyue quickly finished answering the question, straightened up and said, "Multiply and divide, does Mr. Wang know the nine-to-nine multiplication table?"

Wang Fugui's eyes darkened, and he almost fainted. What is this?
"What ninety-nine multiplication table? Miss Muyao, you can't cheat this old man just to be the shopkeeper!"

Lin Xiaoyue was secretly delighted. It turns out that there is no nine-to-nine multiplication table in this world, so she is sure to win?

But in order to prevent Shopkeeper Wang from destroying the questions she made, she first handed over the questions she had finished to the man behind her, "Master, can you see what I did right?"

The man picked it up and looked at it, nodded and said, "Well, all of them are right!"

Wang Fugui snatched the paper in disbelief, but the answers above were all correct!
"This, this is impossible! Then what do you say about what you wrote?"

Lin Xiaoyue thought shopkeeper Wang knew the nine-nine-nine multiplication table, so the problem she asked was three-digit multiplication. If the ratio of light to speed, she is still very confident in mental arithmetic!
But shopkeeper Wang doesn't know the nine-nine multiplication table, so how should she explain it?You can't start teaching one by one, right?
She picked up a pen and said, "Treasurer Wang, if you haven't learned the nine-nine multiplication table, then these are really too difficult for you! Let me tell you the most basic ones!"

With limited time, it was impossible for her to memorize the entire nine-nine multiplication table, so she just wrote from one to one to three to three to nine, and then began to explain: "Look, one multiplied by one equals one means one One is one, two times one equals two means one two is two, two times two equals four means two twos add up to four, and so on. Shopkeeper Wang, you can take it slowly to understand. "

Because what Lin Xiaoyue said was straightforward, Wang Fugui understood it right away, but it took a while to understand it. Anyway, Wang Fugui was completely convinced this time!
"Miss Muyao, I was the one who was rude. If you want me to be the shopkeeper, I'm willing to give it up!"

Lin Xiaoyue doesn't want to stay in the capital, there are many people here, what if she accidentally shows her feet?

"Shopkeeper Wang, don't be like this. Yangming Town is quite suitable for me. I will come to you for help if I have any problems in the future. Don't leave!"

Wang Fugui's face finally looked better, he said with a naive smile: "Miss Muyao is extremely intelligent, I will do my best to help where I can!"

Lin Xiaoyue thanked kindly: "Thank you, shopkeeper Wang. It's getting late and I should go back. I'll let the carrier pigeon notify you to pick it up after I prepare the bamboo shoots. Here are a few bamboo shoots that I peeled. You can take them and use them first. "

As she spoke, she untied the burden on her back and handed it to Wang Fugui.

When Wang Fugui heard that Lin Xiaoyue had brought bamboo shoots, he was very happy. He will let the boys in the kitchen try it tomorrow morning!
He caught it carefully with both hands, nodded and said: "Okay, then I will wait here for your good news!"

At this moment, the man spoke up and said, "I happen to be preparing to leave too, why don't I give Miss Mu Yao a ride?"

Lin Xiaoyue rejected the man's kindness without hesitation, no matter how fast the carriage is, there is no space for her to use, so it won't take much time to take her to the bamboo courtyard!

She waved her hand and said, "No need, it's quite close to Yangming Town, I can go by myself."

Astonishment flashed across the man's eyes, and he asked strangely: "Miss Muyao, don't you know that there is a curfew now? You can't leave the city now. If you are found out, you will be whipped, or you can stay in my Juewei Building for one night. , I still have vacant rooms in this yard."

Lin Xiaoyue patted her forehead, how did she forget the curfew?Space can take her out, but she can't talk about the problem!

Living in the Juewei Building is definitely not an option. Brother Liang will help her build a house tomorrow morning. She can't do coolies, so she must boil water and make snacks!
Since the owner of Jueweilou said he could send her off, he must have something that could leave the city. It seems that he can only rely on him to send her some way.

She smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot the time. Then please send me a favor!"

The man nodded and said to Wang Fugui, "Fugui, prepare the carriage!"

Soon, a spacious carriage parked outside the side door of Juewei Building.

The man stretched out his hand and said, "Miss Muyao, you get on the carriage first."

Because the carriage was a bit high, Lin Xiaoyue put her hand on the man's arm, stepped on a low stool and walked into the carriage.The carriage is full of satin upholstery, which adds a lot of warmth to the late autumn night.

After the man got into the car, he brought a box to Lin Xiaoyue and said, "The road is boring, Miss Muyao can eat some candied fruit to relieve fatigue."

Lin Xiaoyue opened it and took one and put it in her mouth. It was sweet and sour, very delicious!
"Thank you, Master! After entering the gate of Yangming Town, the Master will leave first. My house is near the gate of the city, and we will be there in two steps. At night, if men and women can't kiss each other, it's better not to be misunderstood."

"Okay!" The corner of the man's mouth rose slightly, and he took out a stack of bank notes from his arms to Lin Xiaoyue's hand, and said, "I will ask Fugui to finalize the location of the restaurant in Yangming Town early, and the specific decoration matters can be according to your ideas." Come on. You keep the money and ask Fugui for it when you run out. I don’t often stay at Jueweilou, but I will tell Fugui to take care of your branch.”

Lin Xiaoyue looked at the 1 taels of silver bills in her hand in a daze. Can people really be trusted like this when they meet for the first time?
"Boss, why do you trust me so much? Is it really the first time we met? How many 10 taels are here? What if I run away with it?"
