  Chapter 171 Private room

  More than a dozen accountants sat at two tables, the rich man Li and the black-bellied girl Li Shu sat at a table alone, and Hua'er, a maidservant with buns, waited on them.

  Zhu Pingan was invited to his table by the gray-haired old accountant, and everyone at the table was very enthusiastic. Although Zhu Ping'an was young, none of the people at the table dared to underestimate him, and they treated Zhu Ping'an as equal or even higher in their speech.

   Rich Man Li is generous. Many dishes are not necessarily available in the county town, but there is a full table here.

  Color, fragrance and taste.

  Zhu Ping'an was naturally unceremonious. He didn't feel restrained at all when eating, and he didn't have the feeling of being unpromising when eating in the village. It looked very harmonious, and there was no sense of disobedience.

   While eating, rich man Li suddenly said:

   "Young master Zhu, come to me and be my helper."

   Zhu Pingan, who was eating deliciously, paused when he heard the words, and raised his head to look at rich man Li.

  Master Li patted the table lightly, stretched out his hand to Zhu Ping'an, and said, "Be my helper, and I will give you this amount for one year."

   "Fifty taels?"

  A accountant was surprised. For a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, fifty taels of income a year is quite good. The rich man Li is really generous.

   Unexpectedly, rich man Li shook his head when he heard the words.

   "Uh, it can't be five taels, it's too little." The accountant's tone was a little skeptical, as if Zhu Ping'an was not worth it, thinking that Zhu Ping'an was definitely worthy of fifty taels of silver.

   Rich Man Li shook his head with a smile when he heard the words, and said, "How could it be five taels? It's five hundred taels."

  Five hundred taels?

  Many accountants gasped when they heard the words, they were really generous and envied others.

  As soon as rich man Li finished speaking, Li Shu, a black-bellied girl, dropped her chopsticks, and her pursed mouth could tie a cow.

   "Why, I don't agree!" The black-bellied girl Li Shu put on a dirty face.

  "Shu'er, be good." Rich man Li hurriedly coaxed his baby Pidao to go.

  Under the eyes of the envious accountants, Zhu Pingan slowly got up, and bowed his hands to rich man Li. He said apologetically:

   "Thank you Li Yuanwai for your appreciation, but Ping An Zhi is not here, please forgive me."

   I don't know why, Zhu Ping'an finished speaking. Then she felt that Li Shu, the black-bellied young lady over there, seemed to have let go of a big rock in her heart.

   As for it, isn't it five hundred taels of silver? This girl is stingy!

   Yes, I almost forgot, this girl is a money worshiper!

  Zhu Ping'an has mixed slanders.

   This matter is over. Afterwards, everyone chatted and ate while laughing. The cooks of the Li family were very skilled, and the food tasted delicious.

  After eating this meal, the sun was already setting outside, so Zhu Pingan put the selected books into his schoolbag, got up and said goodbye.

  The accountants have already mastered the double-entry bookkeeping method, and then they only need to check it step by step with the books of several years using this method. When the problematic account is found, it is natural that rich man Li decides how to deal with it.

so. Zhu Ping'an no longer cares about the audit.

  Twilight is dim, the sun is gradually setting in the west, and the west mountain is full of red afterglow. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Zhu Pingan walked slowly towards Xiahe Village with his schoolbag slung across his shoulders.

   Along the way, Zhu Pingan met villagers returning home from the fields, and Zhu Pingan also greeted them one by one, but the villagers took each one of Mr. Zhu's, which made Zhu Pingan a little uncomfortable.

  When Zhu Ping'an returned home, his father, Zhu Shouyi, had already arrived and was taking care of the family's hero, Da Hei Niu. Zhu's father took good care of the **** cow. As soon as he got home, he unloaded all the burdens on the **** cow, brushed his bristles and brought water to feed him, so that the **** cow would hold his head high when he saw Zhu Ping'an. As if to show how favored he is.

  Mother Chen's mother saw Zhu Pingan coming back, so she asked with concern if the food at Li's house was good, and whether the account book was troublesome.

   It seems that the servants of the Li family made things very clear.

  Zhu Ping'an answered one by one, and said that he should not make his own dinner just after eating. Mother Chen said disapprovingly, there is nothing wrong with doing more. If you can eat it, you can eat it, if you can’t, you don’t. Anyway, there are pigs at home.

  Only mother is good in the world. Zhu Pingan looked at his mother, Chen Shi, and this song echoed in his mind.

  Father went to the house after feeding the cow, and came out after a while, "Mother, where are my cloth shoes under the bed?"

  Mother Chen heard the words, and said lightly, "The pair of cloth shoes are too old, and two toes are exposed, so I threw them away."

Hearing this, Zhu's father said anxiously, "Where are you throwing away, the old ones can still be worn, and the toes are fine. I ride a bullock cart all the time. If I can save as much as I can, the days will be better. I'll go and pick them up. "

  My mother, Mrs. Chen, gave Zhu's father a hard look, and said, "Don't pick it up, I took out all the money in the shoes!"

   Father Zhu

  When Zhu Pingan heard this, he couldn't help but look at his father twice. It's not like, his father is so honest and dull. After so many years, he never knew that his father still had a heart for hiding money.

  Mother Chen's face was cold, and she stared at Father Zhu without blinking her eyelids.

  Father Zhu turned pale with fright.

  Father, you can ask for more blessings, who told you to hide your private money and your mother found out, forgive your son for being unfilial.

   "Uh, I'll put the borrowed books in the room first." Zhu Ping'an got oily on the soles of his feet.

  Zhu Ping'an returned to the room and watched the scene outside from the window. If something was wrong, he had to go out to persuade the fight.

   "Ahem, cough, mother, what are you eating tonight?"

  Outside the window, Father Zhu rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and it took him a long time to say a word.

   "Ask me what I'm doing, you, Zhu Shouyi, are guarding the small treasury, and you can buy and eat yourself!" His mother, Chen Shi, was so angry that she spit on Father Zhu's face.

  Father Zhu didn't even wipe it, but smiled awkwardly, and reached out to help Chen Shi's shoulder, trying to coax Chen Shi, but he opened his mouth for a long time, but didn't say a few words, "Damn, I, I"

   "What are you, you are capable, and you have opened a small treasury!" Mother Chen sneered, and opened Father Zhu's hand with a slap.

   "Tell me, why are you hiding money from your private house? Should I miss your food or your clothes?" Mother Chen was furious.

   "I" Zhu's father concluded.

"Zhu Shouyi, do you feel that you have a lot of stinky money in your pocket, and you don't know who you are anymore?!" Mother Chen's tears were about to come out, and she greeted Father Zhu's shoulder with a powder fist, "Are you It’s not about saving money to find some vixen, you talk.”

  Father Zhu blushed and waved his hands again and again.

   "You've learned to renege on your debts, Zhu Shouyi, you..." Mother Chen shivered angrily.

"No, no, his mother, I just want to give you a bracelet when you are born, and I will send it to the jewelry store in the town when I save a hundred coins. I have saved for several months, and when you are born It’s just right, if you don’t believe me, you can go to the Zhangji Jewelry Shop in the town and ask.”

  Seeing that Chen Shi was so angry, Zhu's father didn't care about waiting for the time to surprise Chen Shi, so he hurriedly told the whole story.

  Mother Chen’s heard the words, the tears that she didn’t shed when she was angry, spewed out all at once, hugged Father Zhu and patted him on the back vigorously.

  Mr. Chen and Father Zhu have been together for so many years, so it is natural to hear that Father Zhu is telling the truth.

  Father Zhu naturally understood Chen Shi too, his worried and nervous black face relaxed, and he held Chen Shi stiffly in his arms, coaxing him neither crying nor crying.

  Fantasy show love

  Zhu Ping'an was shown another face, and he turned around and sat down to start copying.
