Chapter 256 Mung Bean Soup, Yan Ruyu

The world Su Zhi came to is a dynasty that did not exist in the history she knew before, but it was almost the same as the Song Dynasty she imagined, but there were many civilizations that should have appeared before the Song Dynasty, but there were many people or things that had never appeared in the 5,000 years of history she knew in her previous life. Of course, it's roughly the same, but it's just a change of form. This has never been a problem for Su Zhi. Instead, it makes her live a more wonderful life because she has a lot of knowledge that she doesn't have here.

Here, there is an abacus, but there is no addition and subtraction. If you leave the abacus, it is easy to calculate a simple number. If the number is too large, it will be difficult, so the abacus is very important. And ordinary people don't need to abacus. They can count slowly.

Su Zhi taught the children to arithmetic not because she realized how troublesome it would be without an abacus, but because in the previous life, the child had to learn to read and count. Since she had even memorized the poems, she did not fall behind the arithmetic.

Shen Zi'an was very surprised by the ten Arabic numerals, and was also very surprised by the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division that Su Zhi said, which made Su Zhi understand that there was no such way of arithmetic in the world. But because Su Zhi gave him too many surprises, he just learned this method and said nothing more.

Su Zhi has never thought about making herself a well-known big shot. Even if she knows that she has too many things in her hand to make her famous, such as poems, songs, and this kind of arithmetic. However, she doesn't plan to make a lot of publicity. She just wants to work hard to make money, live a peaceful life with her father-in-law and children, and be a leisurely landlady who can't count money every day, and let others do it!

However, Su Zhi never wanted to hide what she knew in the past, and she would not be arrested. It doesn't matter to say it, and if she is found and hides it, it's too much. Now that Shen Ziju has found it, she doesn't care. It's so easy to explain.

Su Zhi is very natural and relaxed. Shen Ziju felt as if he had found another amazing thing.

"Fourth sister-in-law, what you said about adding and subtracting the number, is it all the numbers? No matter how much it is?"

Shen Ziju himself is a very smart person. He can calculate the number with his heart, even hundreds plus hundreds, but if there are more. Even if he can figure it out, sometimes he will make mistakes. And this is for ordinary people, which must be wrong. And now Su Zhi said that she had a way to calculate it easily with a pen. He really wanted to know what the method was. After seeing these poems. He felt that there must be a bigger surprise behind him.

Su Zhi looked at Shen Ziju and thought that he was really interested in this, so she didn't mind telling him that spreading knowledge was also a good thing.

"Naturally, the number can be calculated."

Xing'er said, "Uncle, we can count within a hundred!"

Yueyue also nodded, although she would still miscalculate. But forget it!

Xiaori is relatively calm, but he also nodded on the side. He likes to learn what his mother taught him very much. In the words of his father and mother, he knew that only his mother could do this method of counting, and no one else could do it. He felt that his mother was the smartest person. Now Shen Ziju has a little doubt about Su Zhi's idea, and he has to prove it for his mother.

Shen Ziju said, "Fourth sister-in-law. Can you show me how the arithmetic is done? I'm very curious. I think it must be very interesting.

Su Zhi said to Xing'er, "Xing'er, ninety-eight plus nineteen, you calculate it on the sand table. Show it to your uncle."

Xing'er nodded, wiped the words on the sand table, and then took the bamboo branch to write the numbers on it. After only two or three times, the result was calculated.

"Mother, it's one hundred and seventeen."

Shen Ziju looked at the winding strokes written by Xing'er on the sand table. I don't think this is a word. It's not a painting. It looks like a sign. Can you calculate all the numbers with these things?

Su Zhi said to Xiao Ri again, "Xiao Ri, you also count as one, just seventy-six minus eighteen."

Xiaori answered and calculated it in the sand table. He calculated the same quickly. After his hand stopped, the result also came out and said, "Mom, it's fifty-eight."

Shen Ziju really believes it this time. This kind of strange stroke can replace the abacus and add or subtract the number with pen and paper. It's really amazing.

"Fourth sister-in-law, what are these crooked strokes? Do they represent the words one, two, three, four? Can you tell my brother me? I think this is a very interesting knowledge.

Shen Ziju looked at Su Zhi, looking very eager for knowledge. He really wanted to learn this method.

Su Zhi said, "If the fifth brother is willing to learn, he can naturally learn."

"Thank you, fourth sister-in-law!"

Shen Ziju heard that Su Zhi was willing to let him learn, with a smile on his face. He gave Su Zhi a big salute and bowed to the ground, which was a great gift.

"Fifth brother, what are you doing? How can you give your sister-in-law such a big gift?

Shen Zi'an's voice sounded. He just went to the bamboo forest, cut bamboo there, planted some vegetables at home, and had to set up a fight. He had to prepare it. He happened to be busy there today. He heard Father Lan say that the fifth brother was coming, and he just came back. Because he was going to work, he was wearing a piece of coarse cloth that was already a little worn, with his sleeves up and two bamboo leaves on his head.

Shen Ziju looked at Shen Zi'an, looked at his dress, and then at Su Zhi. Although he felt that they were the same age, he still felt that his fourth sister-in-law could find a better man. But if the fourth sister-in-law is not his fourth sister-in-law, it doesn't matter to them? He didn't think so. He just thought in his heart that it was really a trick to make the fourth sister-in-law meet such a strange person, and she didn't look like a rural woman at all.

"Fourth brother, I'm asking my fourth sister-in-law for advice. The fourth sister-in-law is willing to teach me, and I am grateful. Naturally, it's time to make a big gift.

"Well, that arithmetic is very useful. As long as you write down the numbers and methods, it will be easy to learn."

Shen Zi'an nodded. This fifth brother is smart and easy to learn. He knows that he can ask his daughter-in-law for advice, and he feels very comfortable. In fact, this is a sense of pride. In Shen Zi's peace of mind, his daughter-in-law is smarter than his fifth brother, which is his pride.

Su Zhi walked to Shen Zi'an, raised her hand to take down the bamboo leaves from his hair, and said to him, "I put water on the table. Go and wash your hands and face. Are you tired? Have a good rest. There is mung bean soup in the kitchen. I added sugar to it. It's not very sweet. Why don't I bring it out and drink with my fifth brother?"

Shen Zi'an nodded and said, "Okay, then go ahead. I'll wash my hands and face. I'm really thirsty."

Su Zhi went to the kitchen.

"Fifth brother, why did you think of coming here today? How's your body?

Shen Zi'an rolled his sleeve down again and asked Shen Ziju while pulling it up. At this time, Xiao Ri came and wet the cloth towel in the water, dried it again, and held it in his hand. Shen Zi'an washed his hands, and then Xiao Ri gave him the cloth towel and asked him to wipe his face. Shen Zi'an patted Xiao Ri's little shoulder.

Shen Ziju said, "Fourth brother Lao, I'm fine. It's hot, and it's okay to fall into the water. Thinking that I haven't been here for a long time, I came here for a walk, so I don't want our brothers to be far away.

Shen Ziju thought that Su Zhi took down the bamboo leaves for Shen Zi'an so gently just now, and her gentle questioning, and then watched Xiao Ri handing the cloth towel to Shen Zi'an so filially. Watching Su Zhi come out of the kitchen with a sick tray. I'm really envious of this fourth brother in my heart. I think this fourth brother is really blessed. Marry a woman like the fourth sister-in-law, and even pick up such a child.

Shen Zi'an walked over to pick up the tray in Su Zhi's hand, walked into the room, put the mung bean soup on the table, and turned back to Shen Ziju and said, "Brothers, as long as you don't do anything that really hurts your heart, how far will it be? Don't think too much. The other day, I saw that you were very uncomfortable when you came out of the water. I thought it would be better for you to lie down for a few more days. Don't miss reading. You also know that Dad is still pointing at you.

Shen Zi'an asked Shen Zi to lift it in, asked him to sit on the spring and autumn chair, and put a bowl of mung bean soup in front of him.

"Drink it, the mung bean soup made by your fourth sister-in-law. It's too hot these days to relieve the heat."

The current weather is not the hottest dog days of the year, but it is almost the same as that weather, giving people a kind of impetuous heat. Almost everyone said that the weather today is different from that of previous years, saying that this is a sign before the drought. For the sake of her family's health, Su Zhi began to make mung bean soup early, and made it with Lingquan. She didn't want anyone to fall ill in this weather.

The three dolls sat on the other side and lined up in a row. Su Zhi gave each of them a bowl and let them drink slowly.

Shen Ziju looked at this bowl. Adults used large bowls, and the little dolls were small bowls, all of which were black pottery bowls. There were a few red plum blossoms on the side, and there was mung bean soup in it, which looked cool. After taking a sip, he felt a sweet breath flowing into his mouth and involuntarily flowed into his throat. After the first sip, he wanted to take the second sip. He seemed to be really thirsty. Although he tried his best to let himself drink slowly, he still drank a little faster than usual. It was not until the bottom of the bowl was empty that he put down the bowl and felt as if his whole body was refreshed.

"The fourth sister-in-law's cooking is delicious, and even this mung bean soup is so delicious."

Shen Ziju sincerely praised this. He really admired this fourth sister-in-law from the bottom of his heart. He felt that such a woman was simply the Yan Ruyu he saw in his book.

Unfortunately, this Yan Ruyu got married and became her own sister-in-law. RQ
