Gu Shouxin then looked at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin said, "Dad, I have a lot to do. First, I need to study at the Ministry of Rites. Then, I need to find time to go to the mountains to find medicinal herbs and work with Grandma Xiao to develop medicine. Also, I need to keep an eye on Fatty Wang from time to time. Like before, I'll probably be running around outside most of the time!"
Gu Shouxin asked with a smile, "Do you really enjoy going out that much? You can't seem to stay still for even a day."
Gu Xin pursed her lips: "If I stay at home, I'll be dragged to the daycare to see Xiao Qi and the others! They're getting bigger and bigger, and they're so clingy. They all rush over to me for me to hold, and I don't even know which one to hold. So, it's better to go out."
Gu Shouxin sighed, "No one else could come up with such an excuse."
However, those little ones are indeed becoming more and more clingy. Sometimes they rush up at you all at once, and most people really can't handle it.
After Gu Xin finished speaking, it was Gu Si's turn.
Gu Si was the happiest. She excitedly told Gu Shouxin, "Second Uncle, I have one more thing to do than before, which is to study at the Ministry of Rites. Oh, and Uncle Qian asked me to help him compile a book that teaches people how to keep accounts. He said I would compile it, and he would read it and revise it if it was not suitable."
Gu Si used to just do the household accounts and teach Zhang Shi how to do bookkeeping. Now that Zhang Shi can handle things on her own, Gu Si can only help Cai Xiaolian. But she can easily manage Cai Xiaolian's accounts as well.
So she seemed a bit bored and liked to go to Gu Ren's small study to read storybooks.
But she doesn't like reading storybooks at all, and she has no interest in doing anything else. Last month, she was only able to keep Qian company from time to time, otherwise she would have gone crazy from being cooped up.
As for why Gu Yingxue didn't accompany her, well, Gu Yingxue had to work at the daycare center. Gu Si, like Gu Xin, disliked the way her younger brothers all rushed over at once, so she usually tried not to go to the daycare center.
Now that she has something to do, she is naturally happy.
Hearing Gu Si say this, Gu Shouxin was a little surprised: "Your Uncle Qian took the initiative to contact you?"
Gu Si nodded: "Yes, yes! Uncle Qian told me to start by learning this and write a book according to my own ideas. I only need to write the content; how to publish it is up to him. Uncle Qian said that no matter how much content I write in the end, as long as he uses it and compiles it, he will give me one hundred taels of silver per book! Second Uncle, I can earn money on my own now, independently!"
Looking at Gu Si's innocent and happy face, Gu Shouxin smiled and said, "Yes, our Sisi is great, so you have to keep it up! If you don't understand something, ask your second aunt and your second sister!"
Gu Shouxin knew perfectly well that what Gu Si had learned was all taught by Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian, using unique bookkeeping and accounting methods from their region.
He didn't want Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian to get tired, so he never mentioned compiling these experiences into a booklet.
Since Minister Qian had this plan and was asking Gu Si for help, he would encourage Gu Si to get it done so that his wife and daughter would suffer less.
Gu Si clenched her fist and nodded seriously: "Don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely do it. Uncle Qian said there's no rush, it can be completed in one or two years. Anyway, I haven't had much to do in the past year or two, so this is perfect for passing the time. Besides, I also want to learn from more people to make all the accounts clearer."
