After dressing as a top-quality old woman, I became the pillar of the whole family

Chapter 60

Zhang Xiaoying took it with a blank expression, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, compared to what you took out, my copybook is nothing, it's just a casual thank you." Zhou Tao waved his hand, "You can take care of yourself, I have to sort out "Thousand Characters" and "San Zi Jing" .”

Zhang Xiaoying took the copybook and went out of the house, only to see Mrs. Zhou instructing Dashun to pack his things.

"Come on, Xiaoying, let's have breakfast first." Mrs. Zhou saw Zhang Xiaoying and called her over.

The food was already set up in the yard, Zhang Xiaoying was not polite, and had breakfast with Madam Zhou.

"I'll ask Dashun to take you back." Before leaving, Zhang Xiaoying realized that Mrs. Zhou had prepared a lot of things for her, "Compared to the value of your books, these things are not worth mentioning. Don't be polite to my sister." .”

Zhang Xiaoying smiled and said, "Isn't this too much?"

"Okay, the family doesn't talk about each other. Your family is waiting for you to go back, and the old sister will not keep you. I will go to see you when I am free some other day." Mrs. Zhou patted Zhang Xiaoying's hand.

Zhang Xiaoying nodded and got into the carriage.

By the way, he drove the carriage and left Yinghua Academy.

After leaving the gate, Zhang Xiaoying took a deep look at the academy, this is where the children study.

Xu Wencong's temperament can be straightened, she will definitely send Xu Wencong here to study.

"Dashun, how much does the academy earn for a year?" After leaving the city, Zhang Xiaoying opened the curtain and asked Dashun, "What are the requirements for studying in the academy?"

"It's not difficult to enter the academy, as long as you pass the exam." Dashun scratched his head, "Mr. said, Yinghua Academy is not only for those who do well in essays. If you have a talent for arithmetic, you can also be admitted to the academy." .”

"But isn't the imperial examination only for essays? It seems that I haven't heard that it counts!"

"That's Mr.'s consideration, and I don't know, but next time you see Mr., you can ask him."

Zhang Xiaoying thought for a while, and tentatively asked: "Is it because there are too few people who know how to count?"

"I don't know." Da Shun smiled innocently, "I really don't understand, why don't you turn around and ask Mr.? I'm afraid I'll misunderstand you by talking nonsense."

Zhang Xiaoying smiled. As a military doctor, she is not very good at liberal arts, but her talent in science is not something to brag about.

Since "Thousand Characters" is so useful, I don't know if there are any basic mathematical formulas here?

With the lessons from the previous three books, Zhang Xiaoying became more cautious.

"Then how do you count?" Zhang Xiaoying asked again, "Since Zhou Shanzhang attaches so much importance to counting, then he should be good at counting, right? You have been with Shanzhang for so long, so you should be able to learn something?"

"Hey, that's natural. I, Dashun, am a reckless man. I can't remember what I said to me, and I can't listen to it patiently. But the counting, my husband still teaches some things on weekdays, such as Jiujiuge, watch."

"What is the Nine-Nine Watch?"

Zhang Xiaoying once again felt the despair of being illiterate in this world.

"Nine-nine 81, nine-eight 72...two two makes four, one one makes one!" Da Shun stumbled and began to recite.

Zhang Xiaoying: "..."

So is this a multiplication formula, or is it the other way around?
"With this, counting is convenient." Dashun said with a smile, very enthusiastic, "It's easy to remember, how about I teach you?"

No, thanks.

"I remember." Zhang Xiaoying said.

Dashun's eyes widened, "You will memorize it once I recite it? Then you are the same as Mr., why don't you forget it?"

"Yeah, I won't forget after hearing it."

"It's amazing, sir, you have a good eye, so many people can see that you are smart."

Zhang Xiaoying smiled politely, "But if you have a lot of money like those peddlers, how can you count?"

She remembered that she had gone shopping a few times, but she had never seen an abacus. Since the business was not too big, people who had been in business for a long time could calculate the population.

"Use calculations, don't you know?"

"Ah, oh, umm..."

So what is it?

Zhang Xiaoying was embarrassed.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoying seemed to really not know, Dashun told Zhang Xiaoying again.

It turns out that counting chips are small sticks with a length of 13-14 cm and a diameter of 0.2-0.3 cm. There are about 270 sticks in a bunch, made of bamboo, wood, animal bone, ivory or metal, and are generally carried around. , which is convenient for calculation.

But that's all Dashun knew, Zhang Xiaoying asked him how to use the counting chip, he really didn't know this time, let her ask the husband again.

Zhang Xiaoying didn't ask any more questions.

Since there is only abacus, the abacus did not appear.

The abacus is more convenient to carry than this large bunch of small sticks, but Zhang Xiaoying's previous life was already popularized by computers, and the abacus has long been eliminated, and Zhang Xiaoying does not know how to use the abacus.

However, there should be information about the abacus in the space.

Zhang Xiaoying was extremely fortunate that the information she had left behind was now in use.

While the two were talking, they had already walked halfway.

As a result, Zhang Xiaoying ran into Li Laosan and the others.

Mrs. Jiang was tightly tied up and thrown into the bullock cart. She no longer had the usual image of a good person, cursing and being as vicious as she wanted.

And Li Laosan didn't block her mouth, and let her scold him.

Li Guang and Li Xing were also among them, being detained by the villagers.

I don't know if Mrs. Jiang is blessed, but suddenly she looked towards the carriage and caught a glimpse of Zhang Xiaoying behind the curtain.

Zhang Xiaoying didn't dodge either, she slightly curled her lips towards her, and said silently: "You have today too?"

"Zhang Xiaoying, you bitch, you're going to die..." Seeing that Zhang Xiaoying was sitting in the carriage neatly dressed, and she was in the same sky as herself, she couldn't help but yell, "You're going to have to cut off your sons and grandchildren sooner or later." retribution."

Zhang Xiaoying was unmoved.

The carriage slowly missed Jiang.

Jiang's eyes seemed to be poisoned, wishing to tear Zhang Xiaoying's body to pieces.

Until now, Mrs. Jiang does not feel that she is at fault, and thinks that Zhang Xiaoying is to blame for all this. If Zhang Xiaoying hadn't been troublesome, no one would have known about those things.

"I'm a ghost and I won't let you go!"

Then I will beat you to death!
Zhang Xiaoying lowered the curtain, not bothering to look at Jiang who was on the verge of death.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jiang became even more resentful, twisting and struggling like a snake, trying to rush over and tear Zhang Xiaoying's face.

But she was doomed to fail.

Because Li Laosan wanted her to pay Yu Shi with her life too firmly, Jiang Shi would not have a chance to escape.

"This woman's mouth is really dirty." After passing by, Da Shun looked disgusted, "At such an old age, she doesn't do any good for her descendants. Hey, by the way, was she scolding you just now?"

Dashun realized later.

Zhang Xiaoying: "...my name is the only one in our village."

"Ah? What happened? What is she doing?" Dashun pricked up his ears gossipingly, "Can you tell me?"

"Does Master Zhou know that you are so curious?"

"Hey, I can go back and tell my husband."

Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
