Du Jinning stood up and bowed to Liang Xiankuan very sincerely, "Thank you Senior Brother Liang for your love and care." ”

She raised her head and looked directly at Liang Xiankuan: "It's just that I really don't have time." As you know, I have to go to the mountain chief every morning to attend lectures, and in the afternoon, ......," she smiled embarrassedly, "I have to write a book at home." ”

It's not that she looks down on the five coins. Although the salary of five coins of silver a day is indeed less than the two taels of silver in the book, with her calculation ability, she can calculate the accounts that others need to calculate clearly in a day, and this is still a way to cooperate for a long time. At the end of each year, I go to help the Liang family settle the accounts, and maybe I can earn her back a year's shackles.

Moreover, not every book can be sold. The reason why her words could be sold, each book could be sold for two taels of silver, was all because Guan Jiaze and Qi Muyuan had the heart to help her, so they could be sold at a high price. For this, her heart is like a mirror.

Moreover, she didn't mind Liang Xiankuan's solicitation at all, on the contrary, she appreciated the honesty of the person in front of her very much.

There is no love without a reason, and there is no hate without a reason. Liang Xiankuan saw her ability and was optimistic about her future, so he was willing to be good to her and willing to help her. Seriously, this is better than Guan Le, his uncle and nephew, Yuan Xiuzhu, and Qi Muyuan to her, and it makes her feel at ease. At least she knew that everything she earned was based on her ability, not on the kindness and favor of others. Those kindnesses and favors actually made her sincerely afraid, and she didn't know how to reciprocate, lest she would be disappointed if she was not careful.

She is actually the same kind of person as Liang Xiankuan. If she had a choice at the beginning, she would rather choose to cooperate with Liang Xiankuan than accept the kindness of Guan Lehe and others. The former is a transaction, which can be calculated in money and can be paid off; The latter is friendship, even if it is the grace of a drop of water, she has to repay it with a spring, and the spring will still have a psychological burden, lest she disappoint people's hearts.

What she is most afraid of is personal debt.

But fate didn't let her choose. She first met Guan Lehe and others, and inherited a lot of their affection, so she came to this point. Now that she has a heavy debt of human affection, she can't do anything that chills Guan Le and them.

It is true that she went to the Liang family to settle an account, Guan Lehe and Yuan Xiuzhu may not care, and they are happy to see it happen, after all, she can earn a little silver to solve her urgent needs. But Guan Lehe and Yuan Xiuzhu don't care, it doesn't mean that Guan Jiaze doesn't care. Guan Jiaze and Liang Xiankuan don't deal with each other, if she goes to Liang's house to settle accounts, will Guan Jiaze feel that she has betrayed their friendship? She doesn't understand the thinking of an adolescent child very well, but she doesn't dare to take this risk.

Therefore, I can only stand Liang Xiankuan.

Liang Xiankuan really didn't expect Du Jinning to reject him. He was stunned for a while before he reacted, and asked tentatively, "Are you afraid that Guan Jiaze will be unhappy?" ”

Talking to smart people is a matter of convenience.

Du Jinning smiled, did not deny it, but stood up and gave another salute: "Anyway, Jinning still has to thank Senior Brother Liang for his favor." No matter who you are, you are always happy to be appreciated by others. The grace of knowing is very valuable for today's Jinning. ”

"Actually, Guan Jiaze won't be so small-bellied." Liang Xiankuan's expression was complicated.

"It's not a question of how he thinks, it's a question of how I think." Du Jinning shook his head and arched his hand again, "Please forgive Senior Brother Liang." ”

"Ugh." Liang Xiankuan sighed, and after sighing, he laughed again.

He said, "Okay, if you don't settle accounts, you won't go." However, you won't refuse my intent to make friends, right? Don't worry, I won't do anything to embarrass you. ”

"That's nature." Du Jinning also laughed.

It is true that Liang Xiankuan is a scheming person, but he is frank enough, which makes Du Jinning appreciate it very much.

She herself is a scheming person, without scheming, she would not have escaped from the Du family with the Chen family so quickly. Silly Bai Tian can't survive in a difficult situation. But what about the scheming, as long as they don't harm others and have good thoughts, who can deny that they are not good people?

Speaking of which, Du Jinning felt that it was almost the same. She changed the subject: "You just said that you are in the lumber and furniture business?" ”

"Yes." Liang Xiankuan said, "Our family's business is actually not in Lishui County, but in the county seat. ”

"Sure enough." Du Jinning nodded.

When the Chen family went to carry the wood, they thought it would be the mountain of the Liang family.

"How?" Liang Xiankuan asked, "What is it?" ”

Du Jinning didn't have anything to say to others, so he told the family that was difficult at the beginning, and the Chen family went to carry wood for oil and salt, and said: "If my mother knew that it was your family's business, she would definitely be willing to meet you and thank you in person." ”

"Well, I don't dare to see my aunt." Liang Xiankuan smiled and waved his hand, "I will be very ashamed to see her." It was the fault of our Liang family that we didn't know you and didn't take care of our aunt at the beginning. ”

"How is this your fault?" Du Jinning also laughed.

The two chatted a few more words, and Liang Xiankuan stood up and said goodbye.

ruthlessly rejected a way to make money, Du Jinning was very regretful. So she turned her grief and anger into strength, sharpened the ink, and buried herself in writing the script, vowing to make back the lost money from the script—of course, through the teahouse storytelling, rather than directly selling it to Guan Jiaze and Qi Muyuan.

She was writing angrily for most of the hour, and she was resting to rub her sore wrist when she heard someone outside shouting, "Is Young Master Du at home?" ”

Du Fanghui had already gone out quickly, and when she asked about the situation, she turned her head and shouted to Du Jinning: "Brother Ning, it was the young master of the Guan family who sent you a message." ”

At this time, Du Jinning had already come out and recognized that it was the little guy who had followed Guan Jiaze, and she asked, "What did your young master say?" ”

"My young master told Young Master Du that he had already found the person in charge of the teahouse, and Mr. Qian, the storyteller, had also signed a five-year contract with the teahouse. Please ask Young Master Du to gather in the teahouse when he is out of school. The little guy said.

"Okay, I'll be there on time." Du Jinning nodded.

When he went back to the house to see the time, it was very close to the time when the academy was dismissed, Du Jinning did not write any more scripts, dried the paper and put it away, washed the pen and inkstone, and went to the academy.

Now is not the time for Yuan An to be there, and she doesn't know if the steward the Guan family is looking for is in the teahouse, she is too lazy to go over first, and is going to wait here for Guan Jiaze and the others to come out, and then go to the teahouse together.

Because Du Jinning would come over every morning after classes in the academy, Guan Le and the old man who had been guarding the door greeted him, and the old man was already very familiar with Du Jinning. When he saw her coming, he hurriedly beckoned her into the house to sit down.
