Chapter 15 Arithmetic

Zhang Beiting didn't expect Song Yanqing to not know arithmetic.

He thought about it. The ice jelly was sold for two cents a bowl. Even simple addition and subtraction didn't need to be used. When he went home to count the money, he was the one who counted it. Song Yanqing separated the money that was stuck together beside him. He never counted it by hand.

Song Yanqing mustered up the courage to make the request. After waiting for a while, he didn't get a reply. The smile on his face couldn't be held back. He lowered his head and blinked, saying, "If...if it doesn't work..."

"Of course." Zhang Beiting said hurriedly.

He was just surprised that Song Yanqing didn't know arithmetic. The Song family was a merchant family. Logically speaking, the children of merchant families would learn arithmetic and do business from an early age. For example, Leilei from the He family next door, when he was only six or seven years old, followed the adults to watch the stall. Sometimes when the adults were too busy, he could help weigh and collect money.

And Song Yanqing had been in the Song family for 19 years, and no one had taught him these things.

Song Maozu seemed to have never considered him as his own child.

Thinking of this, Zhang Beiting felt bitter. How did Song Yanqing grow up in the Song family?

Song Yanqing had no idea that he had thought so much. When she heard his promise, her smile returned to her face. Her bright eyes were covered with a pair of beautiful bags under her eyes.

The two of them went to the blacksmith shop again.

Zhang Beiting took out a drawing and asked, "Can this be made?"

"Isn't this just leveling the bottom of the iron pot? It's very simple." The blacksmith said confidently.

Zhang Beiting: "I want two of the same. When can they be ready at the earliest?"

The blacksmith: "If you are in a hurry, it will be ready tomorrow afternoon."

Zhang Beiting paid the deposit and said, "Okay, then I will come to get it tomorrow evening."

When the two returned home, they put aside learning arithmetic and making clothes.

Now the most important thing every day is the afternoon business.

In fact, according to Zhang Beiting's idea, his current strength is no problem kneading the ice jelly to be sold in the afternoon. Song Yanqing only needs to help him when adding clarified lime water.

But Song Yanqing disagreed. The work of kneading and rolling the noodles has been hired, and he can't even not make ice jelly.

The two kneaded the ice jelly in a vat, so they were naturally very close.

At this time, except for discussing what to eat in the evening or some trivial matters at home, they didn't talk much most of the time.

But today Song Yanqing said she wanted to learn arithmetic.

Zhang Beiting thought for a while and asked: "Have they taught you to count?"

He had to get a basic understanding of Song Yanqing so that he could formulate a teaching plan later.

Fearing that Song Yanqing would feel embarrassed, he did not directly ask what Song Yanqing knew, but asked what the Song family had taught.

Even so, Song Yanqing's hands kneading the ice powder were much stronger in an instant after hearing this.
