Chapter 154 - 154 Accounting
154 Accounting
Since Su Binglan had said so, Su Wenzhe and his wife could no longer refute it. Still, the couple would never forget Su Binglan’s kindness.
It was just that Su Wenzhe felt guilty. After all, he was Su Binglan’s eldest brother and should be the one caring for her. Instead, his younger sister was the one caring for him.
Su Wenzhe felt sorry for himself and wanted to work harder to repay his little sister’s kindness in the future.
The oxcart traveled relatively fast, and the group soon arrived in town. Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin got off the cart and went to the shop, while Su Binglan sent her husband and the two little ones to Blue Mountain Academy.
When the oxcart stopped at the academy’s entrance, Su Binglan said, “I put some desserts in your bags. Remember to eat them during your breaks if you’re hungry.”
Afterward, she worriedly said to Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai, “When you two enter the academy, you must listen to your uncle. Look for him if you need anything, okay?”
The two little ones nodded thoughtfully.
Then Su Binglan took a money bag and handed it to Luo Jin’an. She said, “There are 1,000 coins in there, so keep them just in case you need them. I’ll be at the shop. Come and find me if you need anything. If you can’t leave the academy, send someone to call for me.”
She wanted to give her husband more money but thought it would not be convenient for him to carry anymore. Su Binglan talked a lot because she was anxious.
Luo Jin’an was patient and listened to his wife attentively. Still, it was rather cold during the autumn mornings.
He noticed Su Binglan’s nose getting redder from the cold wind. He frowned and said, “It’s cold out. You should return to the shop and drink some warm water.”
Su Binglan thought about it and agreed. Indeed, it was cold outside.
“You should go in quickly. I’ll bring you guys lunch at noon.”
“Okay.” Luo Jin’an held his two nephew’s hands and entered Blue Mountain Academy immediately after.
Su Binglan sighed and walked away until she could no longer see the trio. She was not a talkative person in the past, so she wondered why she could talk so much now.
She began feeling warmth and affection for this world since she arrived. She felt concerned for her family and others. It was a bizarre feeling, but it made Su Binglan’s heart feel at ease.
When she arrived at the shop entrance, she saw Lin Zheng and the others already helping in the tofu shop. After she opened the dessert shop doors, Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan went over to help her.
Su Binglan said, “Lin Zheng, you help with the accounting and collecting money while Li Shi and Zhou Shan welcome the customers. Since we don’t have any customers yet, I will teach you some accounting.”
She wanted to train Lin Zheng and the other two to be shopkeepers, not servers.
Lin Zheng had a foundation in accounting. In the past, his parents had forced him to attend a private school for a few years. However, he rebelled and quit learning later on.
Meanwhile, Li Shi and Zhou Shan did not have a foundation. Still, Su Binglan wanted to teach Lin Zheng first. When Lin Zheng got the hang of accounting, Su Binglan planned for him to teach the other two.
When she taught them how to keep accounts, Lin Zhen revealed a surprised expression. “I didn’t know I could keep accounts like that. It’s so convenient!”
Lin Zhen was smart and could remember numbers relatively quickly. Even his boss found it unbelievable and thought he was a bright young man. Whether martial arts or accounting, Lin Zheng was a quick learner.
