Chapter 6 New Year (Part 2)
The most profitable industry in the four industries nowadays is undoubtedly the Yun Family Craftsmanship. Baojinhao has relatively reduced its profits because it has to supply Sun Banshan with free materials. As for Huaxia Bookstore, it is completely a loss of money. For Hong Yu, Hushan Mine is a "strategic resource" and is temporarily only supplying its own business names and Gu family. Therefore, although the profit is also good, it has not yet reached an astonishing level.
The rewards to the client and shopkeepers at the end of the year should have been paid long ago, but Young Master Hong Er had too many things to do before, and everyone understood them and they were all waiting for today.
Hong Yu took a look and it increased by 20% compared to previous years. This treatment is relatively safe. After all, I just changed my boss and I want to make the guys feel at ease.
He could give more. Young Master Yu is not a stingy person. But once this precedent is opened, it will be like this every year in the future. It will be a bad thing to mess up the rules.
So Hong Yu nodded and said, "It's great, hurry up and send it."
Hong Xi laughed with her: "I'll thank you for your kindness first. You'll be kind and everyone will have a fat New Year."
Hong Yu waved his hand to drive away the flattery.
On the New Year, everyone was busy and didn’t seem to know what they had done, and it was evening.
The custom of Daxia, this meal in the evening is the New Year. A large table was set up in the Hong family’s banquet hall, and Mr. Hong spoke, “The elderly people like Hong Shen, Hong Yin and others will be on the table tonight, and everyone will be lively together.
Hong Yin was originally a little worried about being out of line, so Hong Shen quietly pulled him and then turned around and told Hong Yin: Lao Shuai's family is now small, so let's join in the fun, so that Lao Shuai would not see the deserted table and remember his son and daughter.
Everything was ready, and Xiao Yan was also called by Mr. Hong: "Xiao Yatou, come, sit down and eat together."
Xiao Yan wiped her hands and felt a little embarrassed: "Master, I'll forget it."
"It's okay, I don't talk about so many rules today. You have worked hard for a few months, and today I will also try the delicious dishes I make myself."
Xiao Yan looked at Hong Yu, and the latter smiled, and she sat down with some restraint.
Hong Shengri waved: "Hong Yu, you guys are full of it!"
Hong Yu was dissatisfied: "Why me?"
"Because you have caused the most trouble for everyone!"
OK, Hong Yu touched his nose and endured it. Whether it was his former master or himself now, he seemed to be increasingly improving his ability to cause trouble!
He held the wine pot, and started from Hong Shengri, filled everyone one by one. Grandpa and elder brother and sister-in-law couldn't sit still, while the others quickly stood up and held the wine glasses in both hands.
After pouring wine, Hong Shengri raised his glass and raised his eyebrows, sighed a little: "In the past six months, our Hong family has undergone earth-shaking changes, and everyone sees it. My old man thanks everyone for not leaving the Hong family in the most difficult time. Fortunately, we finally survived the day when the Hong family rose again! It's done!"
Masters such as Hong Yin and Hong Shen also had a little red eyes. In the past, Hong Shuai supported him alone, Hong Lie was rated as "mediocre", while Hong Yu was simply recognized as a waste in Wudu City. The Hong family seemed to have lost their days and had no future.
These third-grade masters who show saints were secretly recruited by countless families, but they all refused. Only they themselves understood how difficult this persistence was! Now that the hardships were finally over, they saw the rainbow after the rain, and they were also a little choked up and raised the wine glass with the old coach and drank it together.
This time, Hong Yu was not needed. The maids came up separately and filled everyone with wine. Hong Shengri looked down at the wine glass: "In the future, our Hong family will continue to flourish. Our journey is still great. I, an old man, don't accept my old age. It depends on whether you are willing to join me to attack Dirong in the north and expand your territory!"
Hong Shen and others were excited and suddenly became excited: "Old coach, we have been waiting for you for a long time! We can still go into battle!"
"Hahaha!" Hong Shengri smiled generously: "Okay! There will be a chance soon!"
A good New Year was turned into a conference for remembering bitterness and sweetness by Mr. Hong Shengri. In this conference, Hong Yu was intertwined with love and hate. When he was "recalling bitterness", the one who was criticized the most was of course Hong Yu. When he was "recalling sweetness", the one who was praised the most was of course. Of course, he was also the one who was used for praise.
Hong Shen and Hong Yin and others gradually let go and criticized the ridiculous things that my master had done before. Many of them were unknown to Hong Shengri, and their servants secretly helped to deal with them.
Hong Yu was so amused that he realized that he had received the memory of his master. In fact, it was not complete. He couldn't remember many ridiculous things at all.
After the family dinner, everyone dispersed and left time to the three grandparents and grandchildren. Sister-in-law Lei Yuanyuan's face has always been bad. It is estimated that some rumors have reached her ears on New Year's Eve.
Hongyu cooked good tea he brought back from Qijun, and the four of them surrounded a small stove and chatted while drinking tea.
At this time, Hong Xi suddenly stepped in quickly and said with a strange look: "Young Master, someone is looking for you."
Hong Yu glared: "Someone is looking for, some people are looking for it. Why are you winking at me?"
Hong Xi covered her mouth and smiled: "Young master, it's a woman."
Hong Shengri is about to have an attack, and Hong Yu quickly explained: "I don't know who it is!"
Then he glared at Hong Xi fiercely: "Why don't you lead the way quickly?"
Hong Xi hurriedly led the second young master out, and only Hong Shengri and Hong Lie were left in the room. The eldest sister-in-law obviously had something else to say and said sarcastically: "The second brother is getting more and more prosperous, even if he is lucky, he will be more and more. The beauty is very kind, so he is afraid it will be difficult to endure, hum."
After saying that, he glanced at his husband, Hong Lie lowered his head and felt guilty, his face flushed.
Hong Shengri was already upset about this matter, and Lei Yuanyuan wanted to criticize the Sang and the locust. The old man angrily scolded: "If you have something to say, go back to sleep if you have nothing to do, what are you saying sarcastically?"
"Yes." The old couple bowed and left.
Hong Yu was thinking on the road, who will come to find him during the New Year? Mei Qianwu is definitely impossible. Now he must be with the old emperor in the palace. Yun Siyan and Fang Liuyun? It is unlikely. Could it be the plum shadow of Baili Pavilion?
After a long thought, I had arrived at my own yard. From a distance, I saw a slim figure standing in the yard, wearing a plain white cloak and a fox fur collar. I turned around and smiled at him: "I am a villain today..."
Suddenly the ice and snow melted, spring returned to the earth, and the flowers bloomed were not as good as such a beautiful beauty who was so beautiful that she was so beautiful that she smiled!
Hong Yu was stunned for a moment before he realized: "Your Highness, why are you here?"
He already knew Dao Qingyue's identity, so he naturally couldn't call him by his name.
Dao Qingyue was surrounded by two old servants, and her aura was restrained. Hong Yu couldn't tell what realm they were in for a while. He only felt that the abyss was as deep as the sea. Only when facing his grandfather could he feel this way.
Dao Qingyue's blue eyes seemed to be able to speak, with a faint smile on her face and looked at him, "This festival is a little lonely, but after thinking about it, I can't find anyone to chat in this huge Wudu City. That girl Qianwu is probably accompanying her father. I think about it, you are the only one. You shouldn't blame me for being the wrong time."
As her identity, no matter when, the other party would be flattered. However, Hong Yu had just helped him and Mei Qianwu and had not yet thanked her, and quickly invited her in with a smile: "What does your highness say? Even if you don't come, I will visit you tomorrow and thank you."
Dao Qingyue's eyes circulated and she teased, "I haven't congratulated you yet, Prince Concubine?"
Hong Yu couldn't laugh and cry: "Your Highness, this is different from what I think of you. You are not such a kind person."
Dao Qingyue covered her mouth and smiled, and then said to him seriously: "Actually, that girl Qianwu has a good impression of you. You can take advantage of the victory and make the fake come true, which is also a good story."
Hong Yu shivered: "Your Highness, don't joke like this. That girl is too wild, I can't bear it."
Dao Qingyue stared at him, as if she wanted to figure out whether what he was saying was true or not. Hong Yu was of course open-minded. Dao Qingyue shook her head, and her expression was a little sad: "Actually, you have caused me a lot."
Hong Yu was stunned: "Why? Why did I harm Your Highness?"
"Xiao Langjiang claimed to be romantic. In the Canglan court, he thought that if he came to Daxia, he would definitely marry the princess and complete the alliance between the two countries. But now, I still have to stay in Daxia for a while..."
She told Hong Yu all the twists and turns here. Hong Yu suddenly realized that unexpectedly, he felt a little lucky in his heart. Dao Qingyue had to stay in Daxia for a longer period of time. Does he still have a chance to see her again? When he thought of this, Hong Yu felt guilty and did not dare to look at Dao Qingyue's eyes.
"This, I didn't expect the inside story to be like this. I'm really sorry to Your Highness." He thought a little more: "If Your Highness is so bored in Wudu City, come to me at any time and I'll accompany you out for a break."
He hid his little thoughts under a high-sounding excuse. After saying it, he was a little nervous. He looked up and secretly looked at Dao Qingyue's reaction, but he didn't expect that his eyes as clear as lake water were looking at him for a moment. Hong Yu was caught and turned his head quickly like an electric shock.
Dao Qingyue chuckled, and Hong Yu was extremely embarrassed, not knowing what she was thinking.
Dao Qingyue said slowly: "It's really not your fault for this matter. You drove Xiao Langjiang and Rongqinghe away to prevent Sister Qianwu from marrying someone she doesn't like."
She smiled bitterly: "Actually, even if I go back, it's almost the same as here. My mother is busy with government affairs and has no time to accompany me. My brothers and sisters don't want to be with me. My good sister used to be Zhuang Han, but later, alas..."
Hong Yu almost blurted out why his brothers and sisters were unwilling to be with you, but fortunately he wisely held back. With her identity and beauty like her, anyone who is with her feels extremely stressed.
However, Hong Yu understood what happened later. It turned out that the person was not here to see him. Hong Yu ordered, and soon Zhuang Han came in.
When the two sisters met, they were so happy that they chatted, and Hong Yu was left aside. Fortunately, Dao Qingyue talked to him from time to time, which did not seem to be redundant.
