Youcao didn't know the true identity of Meng Jiugongzi, and Lin Ruo didn't break it, but he didn't want to say more.

It was late at night, and under the persuasion of Youcao, Lin Ruo lay down again. After Yucao helped her tuck the corners of the quilt, she took the lamp and candle to the outer room. It's just that she closed her eyes and wasn't really falling asleep until she was still thinking about the next layout.

Because he slept late at night, Lin Ruo was a little groggy in the morning, but he did not indulge himself in being lazy in bed, but went to the courtyard to practice yoga for half an hour according to his daily habits. According to Pei Nian, this is the only thing she did that was worthy of praise after she was deeply in a relationship and her IQ and EQ both dropped off.

Pei Nian, as a chic and perfect celibate, has a famous saying: A person who has never given up investing in herself, God will never let her be depressed for too long.

The so-called "those who depend on others are in danger, and those who are subordinate are humiliated", Lin Ruo absolutely agrees with this.

And since she learned a lesson from Chu Haoze, her understanding of this has become more profound.

Half an hour in the morning was the best time for her to concentrate and calm her mind, and since she came here, she has been here every day except for the time when she is too sick to get out of bed.

At the beginning, Youcao was still curious about where her young lady had learned such a strange dance, and she had to change into such a flowing and weird dress, but she looked like a fairy out of the world.

However, since she completed a yoga with Lin Ruoyi's gourd painting, she understands why Lin Ruo spends half an hour enjoying this weird dance in the cold and summer.

Every time after dancing this strange dance, I only felt that my mind was open, my whole body was comfortable, and even made her body more delicate, so she actively responded to Lin Ruo's call, even more positive than Lin Ruo.

The wet slender feet stepped out of the bathtub, and the grass that had already been combed helped her dry the water stains on her body and green silk, changed into a refreshing dress, dressed up, and looked refreshed, gentle and decent, and then went to the hall to greet her uncle and sit down to enjoy a gentle and warm breakfast.

When she returned to the house, took out her pen, ink, paper, and paper, and wrote a few lines of words next to the drawings that had already been drawn, Lin Ruo found the young man lying on the edge of the door looking at her, with a handsome face and a smile in his dark eyes.

Lin Ruo put down the pen, beckoned to him with a smile, and said softly, "Xiao Qi, come in." ”

This young man is Lin Qian's only son, eleven-year-old Lin Qi.

Seeing that Lin Ruo had discovered herself, Lin Qi jumped into the room and walked to her side, with unconcealed attachment and adoration in his eyes. When he saw the drawings on the case, he asked curiously, "Second sister, what are you drawing?" ”

Lin Ruo smiled leisurely and replied inscrutablely: "Picking Star Tower." ”

"Star Picking Tower?" Lin Qi's eyes were a little confused, and he looked at the luxurious small building carefully outlined on the paper with wide eyes, "Is it a new business that our family is preparing to open?" ”

Lin Ruo nodded and responded: "Yes, now in Nanshi Street, construction has just started." ”

"Nanshi Street? Is that the chubby and small-eyed shopkeeper Yang looking for it? ”

"That's right, it's him."

Yang Zhuo is the shopkeeper she specially asked her uncle to find back, and then she has to take over most of the matters of the Star Picking Building, so she is naturally quite concerned about the matter of the Star Picking Building, and she will come to the Lin Mansion every few days to report the good news. This came and went, and the image of chubby little eyes also remained in Lin Qi's mind.

"When will it open?"

Lin Qi's eyes lit up, full of anticipation.

"When Uncle Ji's arrangement is complete, it can be opened."

"Uncle Ji? Didn't he go to Daiguo? ”

Lin Qi is Lin Qian's only son, although he is young and cannot be compared with Lin Ruo in business, but Lin Ruo has always made it clear that the Lin family will be inherited by Lin Qi in the future, so when she and her uncle Lin Qian discuss the business of the Lin family, they will let Lin Qi listen by her side.

The "Uncle Ji" in the mouths of the two is named Ji Hai, who is a subordinate who has followed Lin Qian for decades and has won Lin Qian's trust. Two years ago, Uncle Ji was sent to Daiguo, where he did business in the name of the Ji family, which was actually a business of the Lin family, which Lin Qi knew. Uncle Ji will come back every six months to report to Lin Qian and Lin Ruo on the business situation in Daiguo, as for the usual emergencies, Uncle Ji, who has followed Lin Qian for decades, has mostly coped with it, and if he can't cope with it, he will fly a pigeon and send a book for help.

When Uncle Ji came back at the beginning of this year, Lin Ruo, Lin Qian and Ji Hai had a secret conversation in the study for a long time, and Lin Qi was not present, so they didn't know what Uncle Ji was going to do when he returned to Daiguo this time. And the plan is not yet mature, Lin Ruo is inconvenient to disclose to Lin Qi for the time being, it's not that she can't trust this younger brother, but this matter is extremely involved, and it must be extremely secret to succeed, so she didn't say it in detail, and when the time is ripe, she naturally knows everything.

So, Lin Ruo diverted the topic and asked, "The account book that you were asked to read a few days ago, but you have finished reading it?" ”

Reading the account book is an indispensable skill as a shopkeeper and proprietor, the previous accounts of the Lin family have always been accounted for by Lin Ruo, although these accounts are redundant, but they are nothing more than the simplest addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, for Gu Mengyao, who has received an exam-oriented education and has a good math score, it is not a matter at all; And as the chief designer, the values of each design work are checked by it. Coupled with Pei Nian, a veteran of the financial industry, instilling the concept of "financial freedom" and devilish teaching every day, it almost does not take too much time to calculate the account books of the Lin family's large and small stores, and there is never a mistake. But if someone wants to make fake accounts to get by, they basically don't even think about it.

But Lin Ruo knew very well that after Lin Qian was a hundred years old, the Lin family would definitely be taken over by Lin Qi, and she would help and guide at most, so she discussed with her uncle Lin Qian and began to let Lin Qi learn to manage and audit accounts.

With such a big family business as the Lin family, being a family member can't be considered a fool!

As soon as he heard the account book, Lin Qi suddenly became one and two big: "Second sister, I originally wanted to listen to you tell the story of the White Snake and the scholar, the 'White Snake Thief Immortal Grass' hasn't finished yet, whether Xu Xian has come back to life or not, I'm almost curious to death!" It's hard to catch you in the study, can't you not mention the account book? ”

Lin Qi has been closest to Lin Ruo since he was a child, one of which is that Lin Ruo will always tell him all kinds of ghosts and gods. The story of the White Snake and the scholar in Lin Qi's mouth is Gu Mengyao's favorite "The Legend of the White Snake".

"Okay, you've finished the ledger, and I'll continue to tell you the rest of the story."

"Huh?"

Lin Qi had a bitter face, but he also knew that although Lin Ruo was friendly, he had always said the same thing only when it came to principles.

"But, I ...... I really have a headache to watch...... Second sister, am I really too stupid as my father said? ”

Lin Ruo touched his head and said with a smile: "How come, you just have less experience." After that, he put aside the drawings on the case, took out the original account book handed over to Lin Qi a few days ago from the drawer on the side, and asked while flipping it open: "Have you checked the number on this?" ”

Lin Qi nodded a little embarrassed: "For this silver book, I have been calculating for several days, and the result is different every time, it is really torturous!" Second sister, how do you account for so many books and account books? I haven't seen you even do the math! ”

"Want to learn?"

Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Qi with a meaningful smile.
