n110 The Construction Begins

n“100.” Liang Chengcai immediately said.

n“Then what about the sum of the second and the second-to-last numbers?”

n“Also 100!” Liang Chengcai’s eyes lit up.

n“Therefore, according to the distributive and associative properties, the final equation becomes fifty 100, leaving only 50 unmatched!” He said in surprise.

nLin Xiaoyue nodded. Her eyes were filled with admiration.

nHe understood with just one hint, so he must be very smart.

n“That’s amazing! I had to calculate for half a day to get the answer, but according to your method, the result can be obtained so quickly!” Liang Chengcai was so shocked that he stood up.

n“Young lady, you’re so talented!” He saluted Lin Xiaoyue.

nLin Xiaoyue waved her hand.

n“I also learned it from someone.” She said humbly.

nThe crystallization of thousands of years of wisdom, of course it’s awesome in the eyes of ancient people.

nThis was only the curriculum for the lower grades of elementary school. Other than addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, there were also powers.

nShe had almost forgotten about the more difficult ones such as geometry, probability, calculus, and linear algebra.

n“May I know who your master is?” Liang Chengcai’s eyes flashed as he asked Lin Xiaoyue.

nLin Xiaoyue paused.

nThen, she looked at Liang Chengcai with no smile in her eyes.

nLiang Chengcai froze. “If it’s not appropriate, please forget that I asked.” He hurriedly said.

n“Hmm.” Lin Xiaoyue responded. She ignored Liang Chengcai’s question.

nHer master? A 21st-century math teacher.

nOf course, she couldn’t tell him that.

nAfter the meal, Lin Xiaoyue rested for a while before continuing the lesson.

nIn the afternoon, they mainly did some practice questions. Lin Xiaoyue gave Liang Chengcai more questions until Li Xiao came.

nLiang Chengcai wanted to see Lin Xiaoyue off, but Lin Xiaoyue didn’t let him. She hurriedly said goodbye to him and left.

nLiang Chengcai hesitated for a moment when he thought of the last time he met Li Xiao. In the end, he gave up on chasing after her.

nForget it. Even if there was no Young Master Li, he and Ms. Lin were impossible…

n“Young master.” At this moment, a shop assistant came to him.

n“Tell fifth uncle that I’ll go immediately.” As he spoke, Liang Chengcai started to clean up the papers on the table.

nThese things were valuable, and he wanted to take them with him.

nThe next day.

nThe construction of the Lin family’s house had finally begun.

nMore than 20 people came and began to measure and lay the foundation.

nLin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao to stay behind to work with the construction team. She then handed the ox-cart to Wang Shuanzi and asked him to help transport the bricks from town.

nIn less than a day, Li Xiao had become familiar with everyone.

nBecause Li Xiao did things quickly and was strong, everyone praised the Liu family for their good taste.

nWith Li Xiao dealing with the workers, Lin Xiaoyue was much more relaxed.

nShe was now mainly in charge of purchasing and helping Liu Shi and the others cook.

nThe workers were all full of praise for the food.

nThere were three meals a day. There were eggs in the morning, and meat for lunch and dinner. They were never provided such good food when they worked in town.

nAfter eating, and with Li Xiao’s help, the work progressed quickly.

nIn the blink of an eye, the skeleton of the Liu family’s house had been completed.

nIt was another sunny day.

nIt was close to the end of July, and the summer heat was getting stronger.

nThe workers were resting after lunch.

nLin Xiaoyue let Liu Shi rest, while she, Aunt Wang, and Erya cleaned up the dishes.

n“Uncle Jiang came to see me just now. From tomorrow onwards, we’ll have everyone start work an hour earlier in the morning, get off work earlier in the afternoon, and start work later in the afternoon.” Lin Xiaoyue said as she did the dishes.
