Green Luan Banquet

Although Shen Qingyan gave Yan Xiu the jade pendant, he thought about it for a long time and decided to return it.

The Shen family's willingness to take him in and give him a place to stay is already a great kindness, not to mention, the adoptive father treats him so well, and Yan Xiu never really paid attention to Qingyan's childish tricks.

One day he went to the study to look for Shen Shuyan, thinking that since Shen Qing didn't accept the banquet, it would be okay to return it to his adoptive father.Before entering the study room, I heard a few coughs, followed by Uncle Yu's voice, "Master, the manager Duan sent the account books of four silk shops today, and I'm waiting in the side hall."

Yan Xiu walked over and saw Uncle Yu taking over the medicine bowl that Shen Shuyan had finished drinking.

His heart sank. His adoptive father's health had always been poor. After winter, he seemed to take medicine more frequently.

"Ahem. I know." Shen Shuyan still had a few open account books in his hand, and his face was a little tired. "You collect the accounts first, and I will read them later."

Uncle Yu nodded and stepped back.

"Father." Yan Xiu called out.

Shen Shuyan nodded and called him in.

"Father, I still think this jade pendant is too precious." Yan Xiu took out the jade pendant from Shen Qingyan, and still wanted to return it.

"This jade pendant." Shen Shuyan took it over and looked at it, then raised his hand to let Yan Xiu sit next to him, then lowered his head, and tied the jade pendant on Yan Xiu's belt, "Father thinks , this jade pendant is quite suitable for you."

Shen Shuyan smiled and praised.

"I."

"Since Qingyan gave it to you, you will keep it." Shen Shuyan raised his head and looked at Yan Xiu, "You and Qingyan are equally important as fathers, if Qingyan deserves it, you naturally deserve it too Cough cough." He said and patted his head.

"Father." Looking at Shen Shuyan's appearance, Yan Xiu couldn't refuse anymore, "I see, you should rest for a while."

Shen Shuyan waved his hand, "There are many things at the end of the year, but I can't rest."

"Then. Shall I watch it with you?"

"Xiu'er still understands this?" Shen Shuyan raised his head in surprise.

"Before. Daddy taught me some things." More than just a few, Yan Xiu was taken by his father when he was seven years old, and he was able to understand the account book when he was ten years old. Later, he occasionally went out with his father to practice. At the age of 13, he has already started to take care of the family business with his father. If it weren't for Yan Xiu lowered his eyes, he took a few books of accounts from Shen Shuyan's hand, "These should have been read by the adoptive father. I'll read them again. There are mistakes and omissions How about checking with foster father again?"

Shen Shuyan looked at his serious appearance, smiled, and said, "Then, it will be hard work."

Yan Xiu nodded, picked up the account book, walked to the side, sat down, and began to read it. He didn't make any comments on the account. When he saw something strange or doubtful, he wrote it down with paper. Now he can only use his left hand. Yes. So he simply wrote the number of lines on the page, and then dictated to Shen Shuyan after finishing. The action was not slow, and after two hours, he roughly read the three account books.

Shen Shuyan took it over and read it again, and was a little surprised. The few places Yan Xiu wrote were roughly the same as the places he told him to check again, "Here." He nodded, "The previous autumn rain, put it in the warehouse The batch of materials that I bought was damp, and that's why I made this loss." Yan Xiu nodded, and raised a pen to cross out that place.

Then Shen Shuyan explained several other doubtful points, and Yan Xiu took note of them one by one.

"Xiu'er is really amazing." Shen Shuyan patted him on the shoulder, and seeing that it was getting late, he said, "It really helped my adoptive father a lot. Let's go to dinner first, and you can come and help my father look after tomorrow, okay?" ?”

Yan Xiu nodded.

"The adoptive father didn't know before, Xiu'er, you know these things?" Shen Shuyan took his hand and walked out, and asked again.

"It's just a superficial learning." Yan Xiu replied in a low voice.

"This level of superficiality is almost surpassing that of foster father." Shen Shuyan grabbed his hand and patted it. He seemed to have thought of something, and sighed, "Brother Yan taught you very well."

"He taught you so hard, and he must hope that you can make a difference in the future. If you are interested in these business matters, you can learn from your adoptive father in the future, okay?" Shen Shuyan stopped and looked down. he.

The boy's stature reached his chest, his back was thin and straight, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed. He nodded, "Thank you foster father."

He followed Shen Shuyan for a few steps, and then said, "My child thinks that Qingyan should follow suit."

"Qingyan, I think about it as a father." Shen Shuyan turned his head and thought for a while, "It's just that he dozed off when he saw these account books, and he couldn't sit still, really." Shen Shuyan sighed, "Forget it, let's go first Let's eat, by the way. Is Yan'er back?"

"Master, the academy sent someone to send a letter today, saying that the young master had a fight with the young master of the Chen family, and both of them were left to copy books, and they will be back two hours later." The servant following behind bowed his head. replied.

"This kid." Shen Shuyan was used to him getting into trouble every day, so he just sighed, and turned back to Yan Xiudao, "I said he couldn't sit still, that's all, wait for him to come back and ask what happened."
