She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.

Qin Qiang took the money she handed him, somewhat surprised.

Why did they give me so much money?

"Sister, I don't need that much, fifty taels will suffice!"

Qin Qiang said, "How can I take so much?"

If she takes it herself, her sister will definitely be looked down upon by her mother-in-law.

"Brother, this isn't all for you; this hundred taels is for Father and Mother!"

Qin Yu explained.

“I know you’ll be moving after you buy the house, and your sister-in-law needs to see a doctor.”

All sorts of miscellaneous things cost money.

Qin Qiang's sense of propriety and boundaries made Qin Yu feel comfortable.

"Besides, you're my own brother, and I want to help you out. You don't need to pay me back this money."

She was short of money, but she was willing to give it to them.

"Sister, you're giving me so much money. Won't your mother-in-law scold you? This isn't a small amount of money!" Qin Qiang felt uneasy.

Qin Yu did not explain after hearing his words.

Qin Qiang was unaware that she was now in charge of the household.

She also makes the decisions about the money; her mother-in-law doesn't interfere.

"Don't worry, my mother-in-law won't blame me!"

Qin Yu repeatedly assured him that there was no problem, and only then did Qin Qiang nervously accept the money.

"I'll go to the workshop to keep an eye on things these next couple of days. You should settle things at home before you go back to work."

Since the workshop started operating, no holidays have been mentioned yet.

Qin Qiang had been working in the workshop, where he was in charge, albeit in a minor role.

Moving usually takes two or three days, so let Qin Qiang rest for two or three days.

I'll feel more at ease once I've moved in and started working!

Summer has arrived, and the morning sun is already quite strong.

Because of the high water usage, the workshop is still quite cool inside.

Qin Yu arrived at the workshop and looked around.

Seeing that they were already working in an orderly manner, he nodded in satisfaction.

Now that we've arrived at the workshop, it's natural to take a look at the accounts.

The workshop's initial start-up capital was two thousand taels.

Once everything was set up, including labor, it wouldn't cost more than a thousand taels.

So there are still 1,000 taels left for fund allocation.

This money will be used to deal with any issues that may arise in the workshop.

The accountant was a twenty-eight-year-old man named Zhang Wensheng.

My father was also an accountant, and I grew up in that field, so I developed a liking for accounting as well.

Xu Shaoting had told her about it, so she had also heard about Zhang Wensheng's background.

She entrusted the accounting to Xu Shaoting because she was also good at reviewing accounts.

So I'm not afraid they'll falsify their own accounts.

Upon arriving at the accounting office, Zhang Wensheng looked up and glanced around.

This was the first time I had seen Qin Yu come to the accounting office, and it was also the first time I had seen Qin Yu come alone.

Somewhat surprised, he asked her, "Is there something you need?"

"This is the accounting office; if you have something to discuss, go see Steward Qin."

Zhang Wensheng was about to get up and tell her to leave.

Qin Yu glanced at Zhang Wensheng with amusement and looked him up and down.

Wensheng does indeed give off a somewhat frail, scholarly vibe.

It also revealed the shrewdness of an accountant.

"What are you still standing there for?" Zhang Wensheng asked, looking at her more closely when he saw that she wasn't leaving.

She has a bright and beautiful appearance with a touch of charm, but her eyes and brows convey a cold and aloof feeling.

Zhang Wensheng has been here for so long, and he has never seen such a beautiful woman.

Seeing her walk in as if no one else was there, he wondered if she was someone related to Xu Shaoting.

So he said, "Madam, Young Master Xu is not here. If you need anything, you can go to Yunlai Residence to find him."

When Qin Yu heard him say that, she thought that this person probably had thought about it for a long time but still didn't know who she was.

I walked past him and went inside.

"I've come over to take a look at the ledgers!"

Zhang Wensheng laughed at her words and looked at her as if she were a fool.

"Madam, you want to see the account books? Account books aren't for just anyone to see. I don't even know who you are, yet you come up here wanting to see the account books. Isn't that a bit ridiculous?"

Zhang Wensheng had his hands behind his back, but there was a hint of guilt in her eyes.

"Isn't Steward Qin here? Why are they letting people barge in?"

Zhang Wensheng shouted out to the outside.

Wu Cuicui was passing by outside when someone called out to her, and she immediately began to explain to Zhang Wensheng.

"Sir, Steward Qin has taken three days off and is not coming today!"

Just as Wu Cuicui finished speaking and was about to leave, she saw Qin Yu sitting behind her.

Their eyes lit up.

"Sister Qin Yu? What are you doing here today?"

Upon hearing Qin Yu's name, Zhang Wensheng seemed to realize something and looked at the woman inside.

"Qin...Qin Yu?"

Wu Cuicui pushed Zhang Wensheng aside and walked to Qin Yu's side.

"Sister Qin Yu, what brings you here? It's been so long since I've seen you. Is there something you need today?"

Wu Cuicui was overjoyed to see Qin Yu, and looked at him with a beaming smile.

"Steward Qin is resting for the next couple of days, so I came to see if there's anything I can do!"

Qin Yu casually asked her, "Are you getting used to it here?"

"I'm getting used to it. The food and drinks are great, and the accommodations are convenient!"

There are places to stay here, which is to accommodate those who need accommodation and to keep watch over the place if it's inconvenient for them.

Wu Cuicui lives here with two little girls.

Having someone with you to keep you company and give you courage will make you less bored.

Wu Cuicui was sold to Qin Yu, and she didn't want to go back, so she stayed here.

Wu Cuicui talked to Qin Yu for a while, and Qin Yu just listened.

She didn't dare to miss too much work.

"Sister Qin Yu, I'm going downstairs now. Call me if you need anything; I'm in the front yard!"

After Wu Cuicui left, Zhang Wensheng came over.

"You must be Miss Qin Yu!"

Qin Yu smiled and nodded, then asked him, "Can I look at the ledger now?"

Zhang Wensheng nodded, knowing it was Qin Yu, and didn't stop him, taking out the account book.

Qin Yu sat down and patiently began to read.

Zhang Wensheng just watched, and deep down he thought Qin Yu couldn't understand it.

But he was clearly wrong.

Qin Yu not only read very carefully, but also asked him questions whenever he encountered problems.

He wrote and drew on the paper, and soon the accounts were checked.

He took a closer look and was quite surprised to find that the characters were ones he couldn't understand.

"Miss Qin Yu, what is this?" Zhang Wensheng wanted to ask how she had figured it out.

Surprisingly, after writing these words down, he quickly turned to the next page.

So he was puzzled and asked the question cautiously.

"It's just simple numbers; these words are replaced with numbers, which makes it easier for me to calculate."

Qin Yu explained and wrote down all the numbers.

They are actually Arabic numerals.

There were many numbers in ancient texts that I didn't recognize, so I kept asking questions as I looked at them.

As someone from the future, she would automatically apply these numbers, so it's not surprising.

Zhang Wensheng, eager to learn, wanted Qin Yu to teach him.

Qin Yu didn't hesitate and wrote down the numbers one by one, then told him how to add and subtract two-digit and three-digit numbers, which would be very convenient.

After she finished speaking, Zhang Wensheng stared at the numbers for a long time, as if he had discovered a new continent.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Qin Yu changed from disdain to admiration.

He only began to grasp the basics after pondering it until evening.

Seeing that he was studying diligently, Qin Yu did not disturb him and instead strolled around the workshop.
