After his health was completely healed, Xiao Jing embarked on the journey back home.
As Lu Shanshan said, he did not leave any sequelae; even if he jumped, his body was as light as ever.
Unfortunately, the two teeth on his left can never be found again. However, in this era, there is already a denture technique, and at least inlaid with dentures made of sandalwood or cow bones in the future, it can be used as a makeshift.
Ten days later, Xiao Jing rushed back to Puhua Town.
Including the time he went to Fengzhou, he had been walking for four months. When he set out, it was still April on earth; when he came back, it was late summer and early autumn, and even the cicadas on the trees were screaming weakly, as if they were protesting the arrival of autumn.
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the newspaper, Xiao Jing suddenly became childish and asked the driver to park the car. He jumped out of the car. He sneaked into the direction of the newspaper, not knowing what the idea was.
Turning the last corner, he suddenly became stunned.
Am I taking the wrong path?
Xiao Jing looked around and scratched his head again: That's right, isn't the newspaper here? The neighbors' homes haven't changed!
However, the newspapers are indeed different.
The original south wall was demolished, and replaced by three downed rooms. Like all the yards that entered, a door was opened in the southeast corner of the yard for people to enter and exit.
Xiao Jing touched his head. He had been doing the transformation that he had not been able to do for a long time, but Xiaoya did it!
What he cared about the most was not the renovation of the yard, but the man standing outside the door staring at him. He looked around alertly, feeling that he was a very professional wardrobe. Xiao Jing, who kept stumbled on his head, was glared at by him.
Just as he coughed lightly and was about to come forward to report his home, someone walked out of the yard cursingly. Behind him was Dong Xiaoya with an apology look.
The moment she saw Xiaoya, Xiao Jing really let go of her hanging heart: It turns out that this is still the territory of the newspaper!
"Sorry, I've made you a waste of time." Dong Xiaoya smiled and said, "What you said really makes me embarrassed. President Xiao should be coming back soon. You'd better discuss it with him then?"
The man snorted and said impatiently: "This is the government's business. I hope your president will not be perfunctory."
Seeing that his attitude was not very good, the man who was guarding him coldly glanced at him. The impatient one immediately closed his mouth and ran away in shame, not even daring to say anything more.
Is he wearing soap clothes?
Xiao Jing felt a sudden blow. What happened during this period when he was not here? Didn’t Xiaoya mention it in the letter? Why did someone from the government come to him for no reason?
While he was still thinking, Dong Xiaoya had already walked into the yard. He didn't want to be handsome anymore, and he quickly walked towards the yard gate. Unexpectedly, he was still five steps away from the door. A thick arm blocked his way: "Young Master, who are you looking for?"
Now, I will be asked who I am looking for when I return to my home!
"I'll look for Xiaoya." Xiao Jing, who was anxious to enter the hospital and was not minded at all, said: "Okay, let me go!"
He was still moving forward, but he was still blocking him tightly and refused to let him go further.
What is going on? Could it be that my family really hired a security staff?
Xiao Jing, who was very discouraged, stopped. The strong man in front of him roared: "Miss Xiaoya, someone is looking for him!"
Not long after, Dong Xiaoya's figure appeared in front of the door again. She was full of surprise in her eyes, covered Cherry's mouth with her hands for a few seconds before she was blessed with joy and said softly: "Young Master, you are back!"
Xiao Jing, who was helpless, said "um" and looked at the man blocking the way again.
Dong Xiaoya hurriedly said, "Brother Zhao, this is Mr. Xiao. You haven't seen him for a while, so it's not your fault..."
The man named Zhao quickly clasped his fists and said, "I don't know that President Xiao has a good eye and I don't know that President Xiao has arrived, so please don't blame me."
Xiao Jing smiled and said, "Those who don't know are not guilty. Besides, Brother Zhao is also a conscientious person. With you here, the newspaper should be much safer."
After the three of them saw Li, Xiao Jing and Dong Xiaoya walked into the yard.
"What's going on? When did our family hire a guard?" He lowered his voice and said, "Who arranged it? Why didn't I hear it at all?"
Dong Xiaoya whispered: "It was the one Shanshan found. As soon as she came back, she took the lead in rebuilding the yard, and the money was also built by herself. When the house was built, she hired six guards from outside, and now these six people live in three rooms on the south side. Every day, there are four people on duty in and outside the yard, and two at night."
Xiao Jing smiled bitterly and didn't know what to say. Lu Shanshan must have been so careful because she was afraid that Lu Chong's people would come to cause trouble, right? That's fine. Anyway, the newspaper was going to hire a guard. Even if there was no Lu Chong, there would definitely be countless pairs of eyes staring here in the future. It would be no harm to be careful.
Dong Xiaoya paused and said, "By the way, Shanshan moved in. She also paid for an old lady to hire a mother, saying that she usually helped me with housework. Now the house is full of people, and the house between the west wing and the east wing is also placed on a bed. Shanshan, the old lady and the slave live in the west wing, and Xiaoyuan moved to the middle between the young master and Xiao Pan..."
She carefully talked about the changes in the yard, and Xiao Jing became more and more surprised the more he listened.
What did Lu Shanshan move in? Hasn’t she always had no place to live? Could it be that she was worried about the situation in the newspaper that she decided to take charge in person?
He was happy to see someone who could help Xiaoya share the housework. After all, his energy was limited, and he had to be a servant and an editor in the past, which was really embarrassing her.
In order to avoid the recurrence of the misunderstanding that "the leader of a society was stopped outside" just now, Dong Xiaoya took him to see several guards before returning to the office with him.
Xiao Jing walked around and found that there was no one; according to Xiaoya, the reporters went out for interviews, and several editors went out for something, so she was the only one who was there now.
The two chatted for a while and the past few months, Xiao Jing suddenly asked, "Xiaoya, I saw a man in soap clothes outside going out, or did you send him to the door? Who is he? Did the government come to cause trouble for us?"
Speaking of that person, Dong Xiaoya was helpless: "He is a tax collector in the government. This is his second time today. He told the slave that Mirror Business has a lot of money, and that money should be taxed, so he is talking about paying taxes."
Xiao Jing nodded. Sooner or later this day, anyone who sees a profitable emerging industry will be helped. Only then did the government remember to impose taxes, which is already very good for the Mirror.
He thought for a while and asked, "Where is the tax rate?"
Dong Xiaoya said two words softly.
