Chapter 337 Insulting IQ

Song Ziling first copied three ancient poems, and then started doing arithmetic homework. He was always terrible at arithmetic, and as soon as he read the questions, his brain turned to mush.

"One, two, three, four..." Song Ziling put down his brush and counted on his fingers. He should have used the abacus, but today he left his abacus in the academy.

"Oh... not enough!" After he finished counting his knuckles, he realized that there were not enough knuckles at all.

"What are you counting?" Shen Wan, who was sitting there chatting with Ling'er, couldn't help but asked.

Song Ziling said a little irritably: "I'm doing arithmetic problems! I forgot to bring my abacus back today, and I don't have enough fingers to count."

Counting her fingers? Shen Wan looked at Song Ziling with a look of disgust. Counting her fingers to do arithmetic problems was something she did in kindergarten! Song Ziling was nine years old, but she still had to count her fingers when doing arithmetic problems.

Shen Wan said: "Please read the question to me."

Song Ziling thought: "A person has two chickens at home and they lay two eggs every day. How many eggs can he lay in a month?"

"..." Shen Wan looked at Song Ziling speechlessly, feeling that such a question was simply insulting her IQ.

"Do you still need to count your fingers? You can't count even if you add your feet directly. Ling'er, do you know how many eggs this chicken can lay in thirty days?" Shen Wan looked at Ling'er and asked, he was always smart, You must know the answer.

Chu Ling thought for a while and said: "If you lay two eggs in one day, you will have twenty eggs in ten days..."

"Wait..." Shen Wan interrupted him. She twitched her eyes and said, "Your algorithm is too complicated and too slow. Two eggs a day. How many eggs can be laid in thirty days? Multiply two by three. Wouldn’t ten be enough? Two and three make six, and thirty days would be sixty, wouldn’t it?” It’s such a simple calculation!

"Multiply?" Song Ziling and Chu Ling both looked at Shen Wan with blank expressions.

Looking at the confused faces of the two children, Shen Wan was stunned for a moment. Wait, there seems to be no multiplication table in this era, let alone addition and subtraction tables. Addition and subtraction are just done with the abacus.

However, if you can memorize the addition, subtraction, and multiplication and division tables, it will be much easier to calculate.

Shen Wanchong said to the two of them: "This is a new algorithm. I will change it tomorrow and make a table of it. If you memorize it, you will be able to excel in arithmetic and other students will be beyond your reach." She said this, absolutely. Not bragging.

"Oh..." The two of them groaned and looked at Shen Wan without saying anything. Although they had never heard of this new algorithm, this algorithm calculated really fast!

When Shen Wan saw Song Ziling still looking at her, she said, "Why are you still looking at me? Why don't you finish your homework quickly and have dinner."

Song Ziling hurriedly turned around and filled in the answer to sixty eggs under the arithmetic problem.

Song Ziling had just finished all his homework, and Qiu Ju's dinner was also ready.

As usual, the rice bowl consists of five dishes and one soup. The soup is winter melon and pork ribs soup. The dishes are pickled fish, stir-fried chicken, braised tofu, sweet and sour cabbage, and stir-fried beef with ginger.

Song Ziling, who was very hungry, even helped set up the bowls and chopsticks in order to eat early.

Song Ziling ate pickled fish for the first time. After taking the first bite, he was fascinated by the taste. The fish was tender and sour, spicy and fragrant. It was really delicious, even better than the sour radish and duck soup. tasty.

"Knock knock knock" Just halfway through the meal, there was a knock on the door.

"I'll open the door." Qiu Ju stood up, walked to the courtyard door, and opened the door.

"Brother Qiao?" Qiu Ju opened the door and saw Qiao Mu, who was wearing a brown suit and his hair was tied up with a copper crown.

As soon as he saw Qiu Ju opening the door, Qiao Mu grinned, showing his big white teeth.

Seeing him smile, Qiu Ju's ears felt hot for no reason and turned red.

"Why are you here?" Because Qiao Mu's smile was too dazzling, Qiu Ju lowered her head slightly, and her heartbeat accelerated a little.

Qiao Mu replied: "I heard from the brothers that you came to see me today."

As soon as he returned to the yard, he heard someone say that Qiu Ju had gone to look for him not long ago, so he put down his sword and ran over without even bothering to eat.

Shen Wan in the courtyard heard Qiao Mu's voice and raised her voice: "It's Qiao Mu! Come in!"

Qiu Ju turned sideways and let Qiao Mu into the yard.

As soon as he entered the yard, Qiao Mu smelled the pickled fish, and the glutton in his stomach came out. He had been thinking about it after eating the pickled fish in the madam's yard last time!

"Madam," Qiao Mu stopped one meter away from Shen Wan and others, and bowed to Shen Wan with clasped fists.

Shen Wan looked at Qiao Mu and said, "Have you eaten?"

Qiao Mu smiled and replied: "Not yet!" If it had been anyone else, he would have said politely that he had eaten. But with Madam, he didn't want to be polite.

"Then sit down and eat some!" Shen Wan said and rushed to Qiu Ju, "Give Qiao Mu that pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Song Ziling ate the fish, looked at Qiao Mu with a frown, and thought to himself: "Why do you let everyone eat at the same table with us? Sister Qiu Ju, let's forget it. Now that Qiao Mu is here, she wants to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to eat at the same table with us. , there are really no rules at all.”

Both my sister and Aunt Lin said that the servants and soldiers in the mansion are there to serve them, and there is no need to be too nice or polite to them.

Qiao Mu didn't hesitate and walked to sit on the empty stone bench next to Ling'er.

"Are you busy tomorrow?" Shen Wan asked, looking at Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu smiled and replied: "Tomorrow happens to be my day off and I have nothing to do. If Madam wants me to do something, just give me your instructions."

He can take four days off a month, and it will be his turn tomorrow.
