Datang New Giants

Chapter 5 Tian's Shameless Prodigal Son

"Clatter!" The fine sand in the hourglass kept flowing, and a quarter of an hour passed without knowing it.

On the second floor where guests come to live, apart from the sound of quicksand, it is the sound of Chen Hai using beads. Whether it is Lin Zhengshi, Chen Xundao, or the second uncle, they are all quietly waiting for the results of the test. Occasionally, they say a few words, which are deliberately suppressed. The voice, for fear of disturbing the two who are still counting accounts.

At this age, winning or losing is a lot more bearish, and no matter winning or losing, he has lost his demeanor and temperament in front of Lin Zhengshi.

Standing behind Lin Zhengshi, Zheng Yanzhi looked at Chen Hai, who was so nervous that he was sweating on his forehead and didn't care to wipe it off. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. No matter how hard he tried, it was doomed to be in vain. For those who are familiar with bookkeeping, it would take at least an hour to figure it out. , only those who have done more than ten years and are talented in bookkeeping can complete it in half an hour. Xun is the highlight.

In other words, it was only a matter of time before Chen Hai was eliminated.

When Zheng Yanzhi turned her eyes to Lu Ting, she immediately became disdainful: I have been paying attention to this bumbling guy just now, and I haven't touched the lottery for a quarter of an hour. What makes people speechless is that it seems to have flipped through the account book As if it wasn't satisfying, Lu Ting went back and read it again, and the second time was almost finished.

This prodigal son doesn't even pretend to look like one, shame on him.

Lu Ting felt that someone was staring at him, so he couldn't help but look up, and saw that pretty maid named Xiaozhi was looking at him, and winked at her mischievously. Turning red, she immediately turned her head.

He is so bold, he dared to tease himself. If he was in Xingyang, he would definitely be rewarded with ten or eight mouths. This prodigal son is ignorant, and he is not serious, but his stinky skin looks a little bit good-looking, shameless.

Lu Ting turned her face away a little embarrassed when she saw the maidservant, and didn't tease her. There are still a few pages left, so hurry up.

Life is getting worse, finding a job is the most important thing, just now my second uncle made a bet with Chen Xundao, and I heard it, if I lose, with my second uncle's black-bellied temperament, he will definitely not let me off easily Meals are also good.

Bear paws, roasted whole lamb, silver knife fish, just listening to it makes your mouth water. In order to have a good meal, you should sell some strength. Besides, you should not be underestimated by a little maidservant. Isn’t Lu Ting Blind, that pretty maid didn't say anything on the surface, but that look of contempt and pride is not uncommon.

Not only did she have to figure it out, she didn't mean that she would finish it in three quarters of an hour, but she had to finish it before three quarters of an hour, surpassing her, how proud she was.

The little maidservant has a pretty face and a tall figure. She always likes to lift her pretty chin slightly upwards. Coupled with her white and slender neck, she really looks like a proud peacock.

They are all income and expenses for eating, drinking, oil lamps and candles. There is no loss and depreciation involved, and the amount is not large. Lu Ting has learned quick calculations from his girlfriend in his previous life, but adding, subtracting, and subtracting is relatively simple. After a while, Lu Ting, who had finished the calculation, confidently picked up the pen he had prepared earlier, and wrote his answer on a piece of blank jute paper.

It's over, so fast?
Chen Xundao and Lin Zhengshi saw that they both had surprised expressions on their faces. The second uncle looked at Lu Ting expressionlessly, not knowing what he was thinking. Chen Hai raised his head and looked at Lu Ting in surprise, then lowered his head. He continued to fiddle with his bead chip, but the movement was obviously faster, the hand holding the bead chip trembled slightly, only Zheng Yanzhi had a clear expression on his face.

I just guessed that this prodigal son would finish it ahead of schedule. It was wrong for him anyway. It would be better to finish it early to leave a deep impression on people. Look at the position of the hourglass one stick of incense ahead of yourself.

After Lu Ting finished writing, he folded the paper to prevent Chen Hai from peeking at it, and then he looked up. That Chen Hai was still busy with calculations, and the beautiful maid was standing beside Lin Zhengshi, and she didn't know what she was talking about. The uncle lowered his head and ate the pastry, only Chen Xundao looked at him with a half-smile, and it seemed that he had malicious intentions.

I thought there was some surprise and applause. Looking at the situation, no one was optimistic about myself.

Lu Ting didn't care, feeling a little thirsty. Looking around, the second uncle also poured tea by himself. The pretty maid named Xiaozhi seemed to have Lin Zheng's trust. The two women whispered to each other. Shi smiled quite happily, and based on her contemptuous eyes just now, it is estimated that there is little chance of letting her pour tea for herself.

Forget it, bear with it, seeing that Chen Hai, who arrived first, didn't have any tea to serve him, Lu Ting felt much more balanced in his heart.

After the last pinch of hourglass was finished, Zheng Yanzhi immediately announced: "It's half an hour, you two gentlemen, please stop, you can write the final result on paper."

Chen Hai had no choice but to put down the bead chip in his hand, stood up and said with shame on his face: "I'm ashamed, the student is stupid, I only counted half of it."

The second uncle looked at Chen Hai, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "If you don't finish the calculation, you will give up automatically, lady, now you can announce that Lu Ting has been selected."

"Joke" Chen Xun immediately retorted: "If you can't finish it in time, it's a problem of ability. If you don't know how to pretend to understand, it's a problem of character. Ability can still be cultivated, but character is not good. Get yourself into trouble."

Seeing that the two wanted to quarrel again, Lin Zhengshi immediately said: "The two gentlemen are safe and don't get bored. Whether they will succeed or not depends on the performance of the two young gentlemen. Xiaozhi, go and see."

Zheng Yanzhi responded, walked over without looking at Lu Ting, directly picked up the jute paper on the table to read the answer, glanced at it casually, was obviously taken aback, as if she couldn't believe her eyes, and looked at the paper again In the end, he put down the jute paper, turned his head and said to Lin Zhengshi: "Returning to Madam, neither of the two gentlemen finished it within the stipulated time."

Mrs. Lin Zheng had expected this result a long time ago. Upon hearing the words, she cupped her hands and said, "The two gentlemen and the two young gentlemen did not complete the test as scheduled. I can only say sorry here."

"Miss, don't blame yourself, it's because they are not up-to-date." Chen Xundao said generously.

No matter what, Chen Hai didn't complete it within the stipulated time, and seeing that Lu Ting was not hired, Chen Xun was in a much better mood.

The second uncle also said with a smile on his face: "How can you blame the lady, it's the little bastard who can't meet the requirements of the lady, so you have to give him a good spur when you go back."

Second Uncle knew what Lu Ting was, and he wanted to sell his old face to let him find a job. Express satisfaction.

Everyone was satisfied, only Lu Ting was dissatisfied, he stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Wait a minute, old lady, can this junior ask a question."

"Of course, I don't know if Mr. Xiaolang has any questions?" Lin Zheng asked kindly.

"Old lady, this junior dares to ask, is this test just a formality?" Lu Ting asked seriously.

Before Lin Zheng could open her mouth, Zheng Yanzhi immediately questioned: "Mr. Xiaolang is very confident. Could it be that he thinks that he can pass the test after completing it? Completing it doesn't mean doing the right thing. Let me tell you clearly. I have to say yours." I was lucky, the difference between the number filled in and the correct number is only eleven coins, but unfortunately the requirement is within ten coins, do you have any questions?"

When she saw it for the first time, Zheng Yanzhi thought she had read it wrong. The profit in March should be 38 pennies and 560 eight cents, while Lu Ting's writing for a few days was 38 pennies and 550 seven cents, a difference of only eleven pennies. I haven't seen him use a lottery to calculate, and the random numbers are so close, what luck.

"Miss Xiaozhi, I miscalculated this account?"

"yes"

Lu Ting glanced at her, and said casually: "Why must I be wrong in the calculation, and Miss Xiaozhi can't be wrong?"

"No." Zheng Yanzhi said confidently.

Zheng Yanzhi had enough confidence in herself to settle the accounts personally only yesterday.

"If Miss Xiaozhi is so confident, do you dare to make a bet?" Lu Ting quickly had an idea when he heard that there were only eleven coins.

How dare this prodigal son bet with himself?Are you deliberately looking for trouble or showing your face in front of so many people on purpose?It can't be that he deliberately wants to attract his attention, no matter what he is, he likes to teach this kind of person the most, and he said without hesitation: "What are you betting on?"

Look down on this kind of person, even Xiao Langjun doesn't want to call him.

Lu Ting coughed dryly and said with a smile, "Throat is a bit dry. If I win, please trouble Miss Xiaozhi to pour you a cup of tea. If Miss Xiaozhi wins, you can tell me the prize."

I've been here for a long time, not to mention tea, not even a cup of water, this Lin Zhengshi's airs are really not small, and this proud maid is obviously not going to come.

"If you lose, you can clean every corner of the guest house by yourself, do you dare to agree?" Zheng Yanzhi said her request.

Ke Laiju has 28 guest rooms, five independent small courtyards, and stables, hay houses, firewood houses, huts, etc., among other things, just washing those huts is enough for him. The prodigal son actually wanted to pour tea and water for him by himself, without looking at his identity, Zheng Yanzhi secretly felt ruthless: When Lu Ting was cleaning, he would check every corner by himself, and if he failed to meet the requirements, he would clean it again. Cleaning must teach him a deep and unforgettable lesson.

Mrs. Lin Zheng couldn't get in the conversation, so her little niece Rongzhi bet on the young man of the Lu family. Hearing this, she felt apologetic and smiled at her second uncle: "Young people are full of vigor, Lu Lang, look at this. "

"It's not a bad thing for young people to be victorious. This old nephew has always been arrogant. It's a good thing for him to suffer some setbacks. Let them go." The second uncle said with a smile without even looking at Lu Ting.

It's good for the little bastard to be taught a lesson, anyway, he wasn't the one who was punished, and the second uncle quickly thought of a possibility, whether Lu Ting deliberately found trouble, and created more opportunities for himself to communicate with Lin Zhengshi, it is possible, you know This kid is ignorant, and he didn't even show himself just now, so he wouldn't see this maid looking good-looking and intentionally find a chance to get close to him, right?This point is up to you, if the "Gong" and "Sun" take down the master and servant, that would be fine.

Although it is a maidservant, it can be used to warm the bed or fill the room.

Thinking of this, the second uncle was happy, his old face had a smile, and he thought that no matter whether Lu Ting lost or won, he would give Lu Ting an extra catty of meat when sending out school rice.
