Chapter 400: Abacus



Chapter 400: Abacus

"I heard that the top scorers in each province have all gone to military universities...some of this news has spread from one level to another, and people working in related industries have heard a little bit about it."

Sister Liu said, waving her hand:

"This may not be true. I also heard it from other family members in our hospital."

Lu Miao could basically come up with a general idea.

Most likely, the man in the family is engaged in a related career, and he casually said something about it after returning home, and it was exposed.

It's killing me!

She really didn't expect it.

She didn't lose face in that small place of Xi County, but she unknowingly lost face in the Beijing circle!

Those who follow related matters have heard the news to some extent, so...

Does Lu Yuanzheng know?

"The total is eighty-nine yuan and sixty cents. Comrade, keep it."

"Thanks."

Lu Miao took the money and the stamped note handed to him by the comrade inside the window.

Under Sister Liu's ardent and envious gaze, she went into Director Ma's room again.

Director Ma had already written the recommendation letter and asked Lu Miao for the expense list and put it in an envelope.

Director Ma sealed the envelope and handed it to Lu Miao:

"Please keep this letter of recommendation carefully."

"yes."

Lu Miao nodded, put the envelope into the book, and then held it in his arms.

"Then Director Ma, I'll go back today. I'll come see you again when I'm free."

"Haha, sure, go ahead!"

Director Ma waved his hands with his palms facing inward and the backs of his hands facing outward.

Lu Miao had translated more than ten manuscripts in the past few days. When he saw the English letters while translating, his eyes began to feel dizzy.

Fortunately, all the hard work is worth it.

There are eighty-nine yuan!

If she saves this money and gets the chance again in the future, she will be able to buy a bicycle for her child's father.

With the warm remuneration in his pocket, Lu Miao chuckled happily and trotted home.

It was getting dark when we got home. The two children were wearing playful and cheerful tiger-head hats, and Fu Jingyou was leading them to play in the yard.

Seeing her come back, Fu Jingyou picked up Ming Xia and winked at her.

Lu Miao came over without realizing it, closed the door to the courtyard and said:

"What's wrong with your eyes? Why are they twitching today?"

“…”

Fu Jingyou glanced at the direction of the small hall in the main house and reminded quietly:

"Dad went to school today and came back unhappy. Please speak more smoothly later."

“…”

Lu Miao looked suspicious, but he actually understood something in his heart.

But she didn't believe it would be such a coincidence.

When she came back, she heard someone talking about the abacus. Could Lu Yuanzheng be waiting for her at home with the abacus?

Lu Miao held a book in his arms, opened the thick curtain at the door, and just as he put one leg in, he pulled it back.

able!

It really works!

Take a look at what's going on in the hall?

Lu Yuanzheng stood in the hall with a solemn look, waiting for her!

She understood the abacus in one hand, but what did it mean when the ruler was held in the other?

What's wrong? You can't accept the reality, so you want to beat her up now?

"Brother You!"

Lu Miao looked at Fu Jingyou for help.

Fu Jingyou held the child and patted the back of her head comfortingly:

"Go ahead, I'll study with you at night."

“…”

Lu Miao didn't do the questions about the abacus, and Lu Yuanzheng didn't know about this.

The last time he called to ask about his grades, the Education Bureau called him back and wanted to talk about this, but he didn't answer the phone.

Today, the school delivered various learning materials that would be needed for the upcoming semester, and Lu Yuanzheng went there.

The person I contacted happened to be the comrade who called last time.

While chatting, the matter was brought up again.

Being the top scholar in the province sounds honorable and impressive, but if the top scholar doesn't know how to calculate, it just sounds out of place.

When Lu Yuanzheng came back, he took out the abacus at home and found several pages of password formulas written on it.

When Lu Miao entered the house, he didn't say anything about the leaky little cotton jacket.

After dinner, he would sit aside holding a ruler and stare at people's backs.

Add the number that does not carry, add until it reaches five, add ten, and add until it exceeds five, add ten.

The reduction without abdication is the reduction with abdication, the reduction directly breaks five, the reduction with abdication is ten and the reduction is supplemented by five.

Lu Miao started memorizing from addition and subtraction, and he was so exhausted that he felt a headache.

The further back he went, the more Lu Miao admired the predecessors in modern history who could calculate the detailed data of hydrogen bombs and atomic bombs using only an abacus.

She was a little unhappy at first, but as she thought about it, she couldn't help but become serious and recited a little louder.

Some special things may not really come in handy, but you have to know them.

Lu Yuanzheng sat on the right side holding the ruler.

Fu Jingyou poured hot tea and placed it next to her hand, then sat down on the other side.

Tang Mei sat on the sofa with her two children.

Xiao Mingyi listened to the noise and muttered as he imitated them:

"The horizontal line is the beam, the number is the crotch, add one, one up, one down, five minus four..."

With his family and children by his side, Lu Miao straightened his back and focused more.

It was not until eleven o'clock that Lu Miao managed to memorize all the formulas.

After learning how to use an abacus, she was able to calculate numbers slowly and clearly.

For the rest, you can slowly deepen your memory later.

Lu Miao took notes carefully that night, but Lu Yuanzheng really didn't say anything to her. Seeing that it was almost time, he let her go upstairs to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Lu Miao snuggled into Fu Jingyou's arms, acting coquettishly and begging for comfort.

Fu Jingyou was also patient and held her and coaxed her over and over again.

In his past and present lives, Lu Miao had never been so focused on anything.

A single calculation directly injured her.

I fell asleep in a daze at night and was calculating in my dreams.

Fu Jingyou also had some ideas in his mind.

I live with my father-in-law now.

The father-in-law is the boss and when things get serious, he can't interrupt.

I'll just have to wait until I move into my own house.

My wife can do whatever she wants, even if it’s something harmless, it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t know how to do it.

Look how scary it is...

Lu Miao was dreaming and groaned uncomfortably for half the night.

Fu Jingyou kissed his wife's forehead lovingly, and he didn't sleep at all. He leaned his back against the pillow, hugged his wife, and patted her to comfort her for half the night.

The next day, Lu Yuanzheng went to the school to work and took the couple to Qingta Hutong on the West Second Ring Road.

School is about to start tomorrow, and Lu Yuanzheng made a statement on the way, mainly to Fu Jingyou.

Just as Lu Miao had guessed before, Lu Yuanzheng meant that in the future there would only be students and principals in school, and no sons-in-law and fathers-in-law.

After all, Lu Yuanzheng was transferred from a public office to serve as the principal.

There are too many personal relationships involved, which may not be a good thing for him or his family.

There is nothing wrong with this instruction, but it always sounds weird to people.

Lu Miao made a "tsk" sound.

Lu Yuanzheng looked at her in the rearview mirror and immediately turned the conversation to her:

"Don't tsk tsk, you're the same. To the outside world, your father is just an old farmer, not a school principal."

"knew!"

Lu Yuanzheng previously served as the president of the Beijing North Military Region University, and he was familiar with all the teachers there.
