Forget it, it's just a math problem, and it's not a romance book, so there's nothing to hide about it, it just makes me look petty.
Thinking of this, Li Shoucheng generously placed the note in the center of the small table.
Zhuang Keqing didn't hesitate, he took the note directly and unfolded it in the palm of his hand. He saw only three or two lines of small characters on it, but the writing was very compact.
Taking a closer look, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and smile.
I thought it was an ancient classic arithmetic problem like a chicken and a rabbit in the same cage, but I didn't expect it to be this.
How many people are buying things together today? If one person buys eight, there is a surplus of three; if one person buys seven, there is less than four. How many people are there? What is the price of the goods?
Isn't this something that can be solved by making a linear equation of one variable?
Zhuang Keqing raised his eyebrows slightly, curved his lips slightly, raised his head and glanced at the young scholar across the small table, and asked: "Who asked this question? Are the scholars in the promotion class really unable to solve it?"
He looked a bit disbelieving on his face.
Li Shoucheng was a little uneasy for some reason at first, but now that he heard the other party's questioning, he felt a little anxious, and his face was flushed.
This question was a question specially left for Sheng Jia by Master Xiu Mu a few days ago. He finally found a friend among them and copied it for him. At that time, the other party said that he could not solve it no matter what, so he was distressed and asked himself if he could solve it. If you go out, you must let me know.
Why, if you can’t figure it out, you can’t figure it out. Is this still false?
And after all, I am also in Class A, and my arithmetic skills are pretty good, but I feel like I don’t know where to start after taking this question. It can be seen that it is indeed a bit difficult.caset
"What does Miss Zhuang mean by this?"
Li Shoucheng's face flushed, and his voice could not help but rise a little, "Girl, please don't underestimate this question. Master specially left the homework for Class A, how can it be easy?"
"Or does the girl have a way to solve it?"

After saying these words, the little scholar took a deep breath and raised his chin.
I thought to myself, is it possible that you can solve the problems that we talented scholars like Xiang Gong cannot solve?
Thinking of this, his face showed some arrogance in his bones.
Unexpectedly, the girl in front of him smiled brightly, picked up the note with her fingertips and waved it slightly, "What if I can figure it out?"
Wha, what?
Li Shoucheng heard what the other party said, but he didn't seem to understand what the other party was saying.
What does she mean she can figure it out?
What can she solve?
Is this a math question?
What a joke!

If a woman could figure it out, wouldn't it mean that all the talented people like them, who have studied hard for many years, would become a joke?
But the expression on the girl in front of her was not fake. She was just playing with the note in her hand leisurely, unfolding and folding it, as if she didn't care about Li Shoucheng's answer.
"Miss Zhuang, stop joking, this is not funny at all."
Li Shoucheng twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled dryly, and tried to find a way to go down the stairs, either to the other party or himself, "When will Brother Shen return, I will discuss it with him and I will be able to figure it out."
"Master Li, do you really not believe that I can solve it?"
Zhuang Keqing finally put down the note in his hand and pushed it back in front of Li Shoucheng. The expression on his face instantly became serious, and his moist eyes were no longer as gentle as before, but looked fierce.
"What if I tell you now that there are seven people buying things and the total amount of money is fifty-three coins?"
The little scholar was stared at by this look, his chest suddenly stagnated, and he still tried to excuse himself.
"The girl is really joking. These numbers cannot be made up casually..."
No! Wrong!
Seven people buy something, and each person contributes eight cents. If the total price of goods is fifty-three cents, then there is indeed a surplus of three cents. On the contrary, if each person contributes seven cents, there is a shortage of four cents!
this!
What the hell is going on?
Is it possible to guess so accurately? Is there really a way to solve this question?!
Li Shoucheng, who had just frowned and shook his head with a look of rejection, now had his eyes wide open like bells, full of surprise and confusion, and his normally eloquent tongue seemed to be tied up in a knot, hesitating and hesitating.
Nothing can be said.
"It seems that Mr. Li still doesn't believe that a little girl like me can solve this problem."
On the other hand, Zhuang Keqing's demeanor was relaxed and his brows were calm, but he still had the sharp look just now.
"That's all. Then please let me wait here for a while. I think he will be home soon."
It was just a temporary solution to the problem. Zhuang Keqing did not have the intention of forcing others to convince him. At this time, he saw that the young scholar still looked hesitant. He did not say anything and did not force himself. He just raised the corner of his mouth, stood up lightly, and turned around.
Just leave.
"Miss Zhuang, please wait!"

Let's not mention the turmoil in Li Shoucheng's heart, but he was about to leave when he saw someone, so he subconsciously tried to persuade him to stay.
Although he still found it incredible, the numbers he chewed over and over in his mind were indeed correct and exactly the same as what the question asked for.
When Zhuang Keqing heard this, he paused and raised his eyebrows. The faint teasing look in his eyes made Li Shoucheng's cheeks turn red.
No, no, that's not what he meant!
"Master Li, would you like to know how to solve this problem?"
Li Shouchen suddenly felt his cheeks burning.
Regardless of how Miss Zhuang solved the problem, her arrogant behavior was enough to be rude, and even more so, she paid off the tea and treated her well, without showing a trace of offended displeasure.
"If, if Miss Zhuang is willing..."
Li Shoucheng was speechless, and he pushed the note in front of him again.
When Zhuang Keqing saw that the young husband had changed his previous pride, he couldn't help but nodded in his heart.
Indeed, in the eyes of others, it is already rare for a woman to be literate, and to be able to solve problems that even scholars and ministers cannot solve. Speaking of others, I am afraid that it will not end with just being scolded for being ridiculous.
, but this little scholar quickly adjusted after refreshing his knowledge, and he was actually willing to put down his body and ask for advice. This alone is very rare.
It would be a good thing for Aling to have such a friend.
"Master Li, please wait a moment. I'll go into the house to get some pen and ink, and then I'll talk to you in detail."
With a gentle smile at the restless little scholar, Zhuang Keqing entered the room. After a while, he took some paper, pen and ink and placed them on the small table. Then he took the water to polish the ink and started talking to the other party.
"It is still hypothetical here..."
…
Shen Ling went out early in the morning and went to the bookstores in the north of the city. He spent the whole morning choosing a classic annotated by a great scholar to read. Before leaving, he bought two fathoms of the cheapest paper and paper under the disgusted look of the clerk in the store.
pen and ink.
"Shopkeeper, why don't you chase this person away and let him go in vain every time?"
The bookstore clerk had known Shen Ling for a long time. When he first met this scholar, he was well-dressed and talented. He thought he was a big businessman. When he got tired, he walked around introducing and recommending books. He didn't expect that he was a shameless person who only read books but did not buy them.
I still come here every few days and read one book every time I come. I don’t know how much I can learn from it.
"Anyone who just buys some rough paper and broken pens will not make much money."

"Silence! Don't talk nonsense!"
The shopkeeper looked up at the scholar who was about to leave his shop, frowned, and scolded the clerk.
"This scholar has a noble temperament. I'm afraid he's not a scholar studying in an official school. You should be more polite from now on and don't say anything outrageous in front of others."
The guy reluctantly agreed, but he still didn't think so.
If you are poor, you are just poor. What is the meaning of Bai\/Ladle? Do you still think that his family's study is a charity?
If all scholars behave this way, why should we still do this business?
The waiter cursed in his heart, picked up the book he had just read, patted it, put it away again, and then went to greet the guests without mentioning it.
Shen Ling held pen and ink in his hand, recalling the book he had just read in his mind, and walked through the streets to his home. The gate of the yard was unlocked, and faint sounds could be heard from outside.
"How can I add this?"
"Why is there another reduction here?"

Frowning slightly, Shen Ling gently pushed the door of the courtyard, and after a creaking sound, he could clearly see the situation in the courtyard.
There was a small square table with a girl sitting on one side, holding a brush in her hand. Opposite was a young scholar with delicate features. He seemed to be puzzled by some problem. He moved his head closer to the girl and asked something in a low voice.
Li Shoucheng!
Zhuang Keqing heard the sound at the door and turned around. When he saw it was Shen Ling, he smiled brilliantly and immediately put the brush on the table and stood up to greet him.
"Aling, you're back!"
Move your fingers and cast your precious gold and silver votes. Thank you!
