Daming female local tyrant

Although Shen Wan was doing accounts and dialing the beads of the abacus, she had already heard the sound of the door curtain lightly touching the threshold.

But she didn't look at Jing Lan who came in right away, probably because although she was reborn, her mentality hadn't returned yet, which made her not irritable, and her movements were much more relaxed.

She waited for Jing Lan to come over first to salute, saying that she was here.

But after a whole page of accounts was settled, Jing Lan still didn't make a sound. Maybe she saw her doing accounts and was afraid of disturbing herself, so she stood by the door.

Thinking of this, Shen Wan stopped settling accounts, looked up at Jing Lan who was standing by the door in a daze, and said, "Alan, why don't you come over and salute me when you're here?"

Jing An suddenly came back to his senses when he heard the words, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed when he remembered that he had lost his composure just now. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute Shen Wan, and then said, "Girl, I saw you were settling accounts just now, so I dare not disturb you..."

Sure enough, hey, he is still a child in the village, young and timid.

"Get up, come here, go get a chair and sit down in front of me. In at least an hour, I will take you and others to Qixia Temple to worship the Buddha, and donate [-] Shihao rice to Qixia Temple Porridge." Shen Wan raised her hand towards Jing Lan and said.

Jing Lan answered yes, straightened up, and then followed Shen Wan's instructions to bring a chair to sit beside her.

She didn't dare to sit too close, Jing Lan and Shen Wan kept a distance of more than one meter or two meters.

When Shen Wan saw her, she asked her to sit down, and if she saw that there was no tea in her tea cup, she would refill her tea.

Jing Lan said "oh", moved the chair closer, about one meter, and sat down again.

Seeing this, Shen Wan didn't ask her to get closer, and started to settle accounts again.Because she had to delay going to Qixia Temple to worship the Buddha today, she seized this hour of free time to settle accounts.After today, she plans to stay in Shen's other courtyard for another three days before going back to Xiao's house. Before that, she has to settle all the accounts for this season after the new year.After returning to Xiao's house, she will start to act.

Jing Lan saw that Shen Wan's abacus was skilful, and that pair of gracefully shaped hands fluttered up and down, which was different from the elegance when she was holding a pen and painting.

Out of the corner of Shen Wan's eye, she saw Jing Lan staring at her plan, thinking, is this girl interested in settling accounts?Then I thought, if she is interested, I can teach her how to settle accounts. First, I can get closer to her. Second, after she gets to know her well, I have someone I can trust to help manage the shops and farms in my hands. .Anyway, in a few years, when An Chun and An Dong reach their age, they will be released to marry, or they will be willing to come back to help themselves after they get married, but it is still not as suitable as training Jing Lan to be his right-hand man.

Thinking of this, she stopped listening, looked at Jing Lan and asked, "Alan, do you want to learn abacus, do you want to learn how to calculate accounts?"

Before Chuanchuan, Jing Lan was originally a freshman in a financial college. Although she had only studied for a year, she felt that her mathematics knowledge should be no problem for the account books in Shen Wan's hands, and even if it was abacus calculation, she had also learned formulas and was able to get started. I have played, but not as proficient as Shen Wan.

But thinking of her age and background, it would be really scary if she said she could.

Jing Lan shook her head, saying she couldn't.

"Then I will teach you."

"...Alright."

"However, this is not something that can be learned in a short period of time. To learn to calculate accounts, you must first learn to read, and you must start learning simple characters."

"Ah."

"You still have a lot to learn. For example, the etiquette of meeting people, such as how to speak, is different from person to person. Isn't there a saying that the sophistication of human feelings is an article? Sophisticated human feelings are a university question, and it doesn't take three or five days. It can be learned, but some people haven’t mastered it for three to five years, and even they don’t know it for the rest of their lives. We women are no better than men, we can learn and go into official career, they can be poor, and hope to find a way out of the mountain of books. Therefore, we A woman's knowledge lies in her mastery of human feelings, and if she does it well, it will benefit a lot both at home and abroad."

"Ah."

It has to be said that Jing Lan felt that what Shen Wan said was very reasonable, at least in line with the reality of this era, so she still had a lot to learn.

"Girl... I want to ask, may you agree to what I begged you last night?"

Jing Lan looked at Shen Wan, and asked tentatively, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else in front of her, and the atmosphere between the two of them was good.She had been thinking about this matter since she woke up in the morning, and now she couldn't help but ask what Shen Wan meant.

Shen Wan started to make calculations again, calculated the accounts, and finally said slowly after a long time: "I haven't made up my mind yet, it depends on how well you, little girl, serve me."

Upon hearing this, Jing Lan became happy, and hurriedly stood up and picked up the cup of tea on the small mahogany table, lifted the lid, and held it to Shen Wan: "Miss drinking tea, I see that you have been busy for a long time , said a lot to teach the slaves."

Shen Wan took Jing Lan's tea, took two mouthfuls, put it down, and continued to make plans.

Jing Lan stood behind her again, and beat Shen Wan's shoulders and the back of her neck, while saying that it would take a while for Shen Wan to settle accounts, she kept her head buried, sure that her neck and shoulders were sore, so she gave her a beat herself.

Before wearing it, every time Jing Lan asked her parents for help, she liked to do this, hitting her shoulders and the back of her neck, so it was very easy to do.Moreover, if she wants to achieve her goal, she is willing to put down her figure and flatter and say sweet words against her will.

Obviously, she served tea and tapped her shoulders in such a doggy manner, and even called herself a servant girl, which was beyond Shen Wan's expectation, because Jing Lan in her previous life was very reserved.She remembered that when Jing Lan had just become her maid, she was just sweeping the floor in the courtyard, and when she passed by her, she shrank nervously, lowered her head, and couldn't speak well when she saluted and greeted herself.Unlike the current Jing Lan, she just said that, and she immediately served tea and beat her shoulders, she seemed not afraid of herself at all, and she was very flexible.

Doubts are doubts, this does not affect Shen Wan's enjoyment of Jinglan's "service".

Jing Lan tapped Shen Wan's shoulder for about a quarter of an hour. Shen Wan was afraid that she would be tired, so she told her not to tap, and sat back to rest for a while.

"Girl, did your servant serve you well?" Jing Lan asked as soon as she sat back, rubbing her hands and salivating.

Shen Wan said lightly: "I can't tell if it's good or not for a while."

As soon as Jing Lan heard this, she began to slander Shen Wan as an old fox who never leaked her words. First, give her hope and let her serve her like a dog, and when she finishes serving her, she will say something ambiguous.

The implication of Shen Wan's words is to let herself continue to work hard and continue to dogged?

Well, in order not to go to Xiao's house, it's okay to be shameless, she continued to lower the limit to make her master happy, and achieved her goal.

With a smile on her face, Jing Lan said that she would continue to work hard to satisfy Shen Wan.

"That's good." Shen Wan said, her eyes continued to look at the account book, her hands kept flipping the abacus beads.

Jing Lan got up to refill Shen Wan's tea, and then sat quietly watching the beauty settle accounts. She also knew that Shen Wan was doing something serious, and she couldn't keep bothering others with her own affairs.

Half an hour later, An Chun and An Dong came back one after another to report to Shen Wan that what Shen Wan told them to do had been done.

Mother Chen had already prepared several sedan chairs, as well as the incense candles needed to go to the Qixia Temple on the mountain to worship the Buddha.Steward Fan took the bank notes, and asked the boys to open the door of the grain depot, and took out twenty shi of grain to load into the truck, and it would be ready in a short time.After putting it on, he will send a servant to pass the message, and then Shen Wan can leave.

Shen Wan nodded and said she got it, and asked An Chun and An Dong to come over, and gave them each an account book, and asked them to use the time while waiting to set off to settle accounts.

Since An Chun and An Dong came in, Jing Lan consciously moved the armchair away and stood in the corner of the room, but Shen Wan didn't let her go again.

When An Chun and An Dong came back, they were surprised enough to see Jing Lan sitting not far from Shen Wan, how could Jing Lan be more eye-catching.

Shen Wan calculated for a while, and suddenly remembered that Jing Lan was standing stupidly in the corner of the room, motionless, she must be uncomfortable, so she told her to go out first, go to the ear room to find the green bamboo, then set off for Qixia Temple, and then come to serve her.

Jing Lan felt that standing was boring a long time ago, she accepted Shen Wan's order as if she had received a pardon, and hurriedly withdrew.

After retreating outside, she let out a sigh of relief, she felt a lot more relaxed, just now standing in the room like a puppet made her suffocate.

She went to find the maid outside the gate and asked where Cuizhu was.

The maid guarding the door knew that she was Shen Wan, the aunt of the Shen family's new favorite maid, so she hurriedly took her to the side room on the right, which was the sitting room of the maid who usually served the master.Generally speaking, when the female relatives of the Shen family in the city come to Huixiangju, the maids who are arranged to serve will wait in the side room for the master to call, or wait for the big maids to assign them to be on errands.

When Jing Lan went in, she saw Cuizhu sitting at a wooden table, eating melon seeds and laughing with a maid.

Seeing Jing Lan coming in, she hurriedly beckoned Jing Lan to sit over, and introduced to her that the servant girl sitting next to her was Chun Tao, who had been in this Shen family courtyard for two years. Old seniority.

Chuntao probably talked a lot with Cuizhu just now, and knowing that Jinglan is valued by the Shen family's aunt, she has the intention of currying favor with her.

As soon as Jing Lan sat down, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds piled in a handkerchief on the table and gave Jing Lan some to eat.

Melon seeds are the favorite snacks of women who have nothing to do, especially when they get together to gossip, knocking melon seeds can make the content of the gossip more fragrant.

Originally, things like melon seeds are very common snacks, whether they are worn before or after.

But for Jing Lan, she hasn't had enough to eat in the past six months, and she is hungry every day. Snacks like melon seeds have become rare snacks for her.Chuntao grabbed a handful of melon seeds for her, and she was a little happy.

She also likes eating melon seeds and talking about the mountains, especially when she sits with someone like Cui Zhu who loves gossip.
