When Hua Yuanqing learned from his son that Hua Yuansheng's business had been good that day, his heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, instantly settled down.

Seeing that Hua Yuansheng and the other two had finished eating, he urged them to hurry home to wash up and rest.

The two families lived not far apart, but the three of them still chose to drive an oxcart home.

just because,

"Quick, quick! Is the door closed properly?"

"Close it properly! This room isn't soundproof, so keep your voice down when you talk later."

Liang Yili saw that her grandfather couldn't even take care of settling his beloved old ox.

He casually tied it to the shed, threw in a large handful of hay, and quickly walked into the house.

They quickly closed the door and turned off the lights.

Then he sat down at the table, looked at her expectantly, and smiled knowingly.

Liang Yili walked quickly to the dining table, untied the small bag tied around her waist, and dumped all the small bills inside onto the table.

Liang Ruotao and Hua Yuansheng simultaneously reached out and blocked the table.

I was afraid that the small bills would grow legs and flip over the table.

A tall stack of bills stands on the table, creating a strong visual impact.

Liang Ruotao and Hua Yuansheng both swallowed hard: "This...so much?"

Fearing that they would be too busy and cause chaos, the three of them clearly divided up the tasks on the way there.

Liang Ruotao was in charge of selling shrimp, while Hua Yuansheng was in charge of maintaining order to prevent any disturbances.

Liang Yili was in full charge of the ring toss game.

After Liang Ruotao sold out of shrimp, she followed Hua Yuansheng to help maintain order and keep an eye on others to prevent anyone from stealing them.

Therefore, all the two knew was that the ring toss business was doing very well tonight.

However, it is unclear exactly how much money was received.

"Sis, what about the money for the shrimp?"

Liang Ruotao slapped her forehead and quickly untied the small bag from her waist: "Right, the money for the shrimp is with me!"

"Let's put the shrimp's money aside for now and count how much we've won in total from the ring toss game."

Liang Yili stopped her sister from pouring money onto the table and said...

Hua Yuansheng nodded and said directly, "Li Zi, you count the money."

“Yes, Pear, you count the money!” Liang Ruotao added.

Seeing that the two insisted, Liang Yili picked up the tickets and smiled:

"To avoid me miscounting the money, let's not be lazy and have all three of us count it, taking turns, and then reconcile the accounts."

trouble?

Who would complain about the hassle of counting money?

That must be impossible!

Let alone such a small amount of money, even if it were more, no one would find it troublesome to count until their hands cramp.

Liang Ruotao and Hua Yuansheng thought silently in their hearts.

Knowing that Liang Yili wanted the two of them to experience the joy of counting money, they no longer refused.

Small bills may seem numerous, but their face value is small.

To avoid mistakes and to count faster.

Liang Yili divided them into several piles according to their different denominations, and then counted them one by one.

Considering that the accounts would grow larger and larger, while Huayuansheng was still counting the money...

Liang Yili got up and went back to her room, bringing back a notebook that hadn't been used much.

“From now on, we will keep daily records. We will record them separately according to gross revenue, cost and profit.”

"Then, we conduct a review every month to ensure that the accounts match the actual situation."

"That way, even if we do a lot of small businesses in the future, and they get messy, we'll still have a clear understanding of the situation. Most importantly, we won't make any major mistakes."

Liang Ruotao glanced at Liang Yili thoughtfully.

Hua Yuansheng, who hadn't received much formal education but deeply admired scholars, glanced at Liang Yili's head with amusement.

The pride in my heart was almost bursting forth like a flood.

Goodness gracious, how did his pear's head grow like that?

Not only do they have one profitable business after another, but they also do things in such a methodical way.

No, I need to go to his ancestral graves to offer incense when I have time and have a good talk with his ancestors.

Liang Yili was busy taking notes on the previous day's accounts and didn't notice the two people's glances.

"Have you counted them? How much?"

Hua Yuansheng suppressed his eagerness to visit his ancestral graves to see if they were emitting auspicious smoke, and blurted out, "47 yuan and 5 cents!"

Liang Yili turned to look at Liang Ruotao, and after receiving the same answer, began to report the expenses:

"The gross profit from the ring toss game is 47.5 yuan."

I spent 11 yuan during the day on toys, ring toss, cigarettes, and other such items.

In other words, the winnings from the ring toss game today are 36.5 yuan.

"hiss!"

Filled with excitement, the three of them began counting the money they made from selling shrimp.

Since Liang Ruotao was mainly in charge of the shrimp business, she was also responsible for the accounting.

"Today we made a total of 22 catties of shrimp, about one catty was tasted, and 21 catties were sold."

But the shrimp spent 5 yuan on spices during the day, so it earned 16 yuan today.

Hua Yuansheng tapped his finger on the table, a hint of disbelief in his eyes, and said:

"We only earned 52.5 yuan today?"

"Correct!"

Even though they were somewhat prepared, the three of them were still taken aback.

In an era where a monthly salary of 300 is considered a high income, how could they earn one-sixth of what others earn in a month in just one day?

If it's 525 yuan a day, then it'll be 525 yuan in ten days.

That month has 30 days...

Hua Yuansheng shook his head, feeling drowsy.

Liang Ruotao stared at the small bills on the table, her lips trembling slightly.

The vague and indistinct thought in my mind suddenly became clear and visible.

Pears...you're telling the truth!

She really has a way of earning enough money for both sisters to go to high school together!

She... really doesn't have to be separated from her sister!

Liang Ruotao gave Liang Yili, who was keeping her head down and doing the accounting, a deep look.

Suddenly, I realized that my younger sister, whom I had tightly protected behind me during the beating, had somehow disappeared...

No, it was from the day they severed ties that he took the initiative to stand in front of her and shield her from the wind and rain.

Liang Ruotao blinked hard, suppressing the stinging in her eyes.

Never before had she felt so grateful to Hua and Chun.

Thank you for leaving her with her younger sister.

These days, she often wonders if she is too cold-blooded.

The moment she learned of Hua Hechun's passing, her first reaction was... relief.

That's right, it wasn't sadness or despair, but rather a sense of relief.

No one would believe it if I told you, right?

To outsiders, Hua and Chun are kind and good in every way, but to the sisters, they are like madwomen with no sense of reason.

Of course, most of the time, she is a gentle and loving mother to her daughter.

However, every night when all was quiet, or after Liang Yongchang hadn't been home for several days, what awaited the two sisters was a torrent of abuse.

She blamed them for not being boys.

She blamed them for not knowing how to please Liang Yongchang and keep him around.

She even...never gave up the idea of ​​having another boy.

Even if it means losing my job, I'm willing to do it.

Hua Hechun's slightly protruding abdomen every two years is the best proof of this.

In fact, there are hidden reasons behind Hua Hechun's drowning due to exhaustion.

More than half a month before Hua Hechun's incident, Liang Ruotao followed her to the front of a private clinic.

When Liang Ruotao saw Hua Hechun emerge with a face so pale it was devoid of any color, she felt both heartbroken and relieved.

Heartbroken by Hua and Chun's stubbornness.

It's heartbreaking to see yet another sister leave this world before she even got to see it.

And I'm also glad that she never came into the world.

"sister?"

As soon as Liang Yili looked up, she was met with Liang Ruotao's cold, emotionless pupils, which startled her so much that she quickly cried out.

Liang Ruotao shook her head and said softly, "It's okay! Pear, let's go find out about the registration fee for the first year of high school tomorrow!"

The road ahead is long yet bright.

Let that poor, pathetic woman remain sealed away in her memories.
