Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 97 Counting Money

Back home, Mrs. Li was making lunch.In fact, it is the stewed pork left by Mengyuan, which is boiled with rice noodles and then eaten together.

"Mom, we're coming back!"

Li Shi, who heard the noise in the courtyard, came out to take a look, and saw her daughter and husband sweating on their foreheads, and felt distressed!

"Oh, Mengya, hurry up, get a bucket of well water to wipe, look at your sweaty forehead, and her father too. Why don't you two bring straw blankets on this hot day? What if you get burned in the sun? What can I do? My daughter is not sensible, don't you, as a father, know how to feel sorry for her?"

Mengxiong wanted to cry, but he didn't have any tears, he... didn't come back in such a hot day just to come back sooner.As soon as the father and daughter were happy, they forgot about the matter of being in the scorching sun.If it weren't for the sweat on their foreheads, they wouldn't know that they would just come back from the sun.

Meng Yuan was quite happy to see her father suffer.However, now is not the time for her to be happy!
"Mom, don't blame dad, it's just that Mengya didn't listen! We sold all the rice noodles today, and we got a lot of money. Mom, let's count the money together, shall we?"

She is an accountant, so she can do mental arithmetic, but she wants to feel some of the fruits of her busy work all morning.

Mrs. Li heard that the rice noodles were all sold out, and she didn't have time to talk to her husband who was still complaining, so she followed her daughter to sit on the deck chair under the tree.Meng Yuan slammed all the copper plates in her pocket onto the bamboo table made of bamboo.

Listening to the sound of the copper plates touching together, looking at the small pile of copper plates on the table.Li's mouth was wide open, and even Mengxiong, who had been helping him all morning, was stunned.

"Mengya, this... is this really what you guys earned today? So much? How much does this have to be?"

It was the first time for Li Shi to see so much money, and his whole body was in a state of wandering spirit.Mengxiong was not much better than him, he was busy washing dishes and lighting the fire all morning, so he didn't get in touch with these things.

Looking at the copper plates being poured out with a splash, I was quite surprised.

Seeing her parents staring at the copper coins she poured out, they seemed afraid that they might run away.Can we have something to do?What she wants to earn is silver, these are copper plates, when can they be exchanged for silver?

"Father, mother, what are you still doing stupidly? Come and count the money for me?"

"Huh? Oh, come here, come here."

After recovering, Mrs. Li looked at her daughter with some embarrassment, and her hands were not idle, and the copper plates were strung together in the twine.

Mengxiong moved a small stool and sat down and counted the pieces carefully.A family, counting copper coins together under the tree in the afternoon...

Meng Yuan thought to herself, during this period of time, they will count the copper coins, and after half a year, they will count the silver coins here.That feeling is perfect enough!
Not long after, the three of them counted the copper coins in their hands.

"I have 530 Erwen here." Mengxiong reported the number he had counted.Then came Li Shi: "Mine is 670 Qiwen, Meng Ya, what about yours? How much is it?"

"Hey, here is 290 pennies. We sold a total of 250 bowls of noodles. In addition to the original stewed meat, each bowl of noodles also had customers asking for additional meat. I can't remember the exact amount, but let's take it. I didn’t run out of the braised pork, so I gave the rest to Uncle Beard. Calculated in this way, our family earned [-] Wen this morning, which is one or two and a half!”
