Mother Qin had heard many stories about Chen Wei, such as being a couple for life, advocating equality between men and women, being a mistress if not loved, and so on. All of these stories were related to Xie Yuchuan, and each one was accompanied by romance.
But these farces were not enough to make Qin's mother take Chen Wei seriously.
A concubine will always be a concubine and can never become a wife.
Even if Xie Yuchuan loved and doted on her, it was impossible for him to promote Chen Wei to be his legal wife.
Especially after seeing the shop opened by Chen Wei being sealed off by the government, Qin's mother was even more contemptuous of Chen Wei.
She believed that once Chen Wei lost the novelty of Xie Yuchuan, he would be discarded and would not be able to shake her daughter's status at all.
After the notification.
Qin Shuyu personally came to the door to greet Qin's mother.
After leading Qin's mother into the main courtyard where she lived, Qin Shuyu was still worried. This was the first time Qin's mother had come to her house. "Mother, what brings you here today?"
"Could it be that Zihong has caused trouble again?"
Apart from these, Qin Shuyu couldn't imagine that Qin's mother would come to see him again in such a short time.
Perhaps it’s some important matter that requires the Marquis’ Mansion to step in and resolve?
A hint of self-mockery flashed across Qin Shuyu's lowered eyes, followed by a hint of loneliness.
Mother may be disappointed this time.
She had been deprived of her rights as the housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion, and had been subjected to Xie Yuchuan's anger and the cold war. The old lady of the Marquis also became dissatisfied with her, and was afraid that she could not help her mother in any way.
Mother Qin didn't notice Qin Shuyu's expression. Her originally happy face suddenly froze after hearing Qin Shuyu's words.
"Shuyu, what are you talking about? Do you still want your brother to get into trouble?"
"Is your brother so ignorant? As his sister, how can you be prejudiced against him? He is just young and has not yet started a family. He will mature in the future."
"Besides, I'm not here because of Zihong this time."
"I want to ask you, where did you get those counting methods?"
"Your father said this counting method is extremely ingenious and may be helpful in solving the problem of the destroyed general ledger. He asked me to ask you in person."
Ledger?
What account book?
Qin Shuyu looked up in surprise and saw Qin's mother take out a piece of paper covered with words.
She took it and looked at it, her eyebrows and eyes suddenly tightened. After a careful look, her expression changed slightly and she was shocked. She said with rapid breathing:
"Where did you get this from?"
Mother Qin was startled and asked in surprise, "Didn't you give it to me? Don't you know? It's among the pile of gifts you asked Su Zhu to bring."
Qin Shuyu was bewildered and shook his head in confusion: "This is not written by me. This is the first time I have seen such an ingenious counting method."
Qin Shuyu took another careful look at the handwriting. It looked a bit like Chen Wei's handwriting?
Qin Shuyu suddenly remembered the last time Chen Wei came to see her and handed her a box. What did she say?
She didn't care at the time and just let it go.
Maybe it was mixed in with the pile of gifts she had prepared?
Thinking of this, Qin Shuyu immediately raised her head: "Mother, this calculation was not written by me."
“It should be written by Miss Shen!”
Hearing the word "Chen Wei," Mother Qin was initially incredulous. Then, she frowned in disdain and subconsciously scorned, "Chen Wei? That unremarkable woman, how could she have such a brilliant idea?"
"That's impossible!"
"How could such an ingenious algorithm come from her?"
"She is clearly a..."
Having said this, Qin's mother suddenly fell silent.
Even though she looked down on Chen Wei, thinking that Chen Wei was a country girl who might not even know how to read, how could she have such an exquisite way of counting.
But when it comes to creative ideas, Chen Wei is the only one in the capital who can be so extraordinary and come up with something new and strange. Maybe it's really her.
Ordinary people would never think of this way of counting.
Maybe only people with different brains can think of this?
Although Qin's mother disdained to talk to Chen Wei, she thought that if she could figure out the principle behind it, she would not only be able to keep Zihong's official position, but might even get him promoted.
Mother Qin thought about it and felt that it might be worthwhile to see Chen Wei.
So, Mother Qin's face was very awkward, but she finally put on a sullen face and said in a noble and condescending tone:
"If it's really her, then ask her to come over."
"If this urgent matter can be resolved, as long as she serves you obediently in the future, you can take extra care of her in this mansion and even give her a concubine position."
