The time of first marriage is always so sweet, and a week has passed before I knew it.
This morning, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and the wind was mixed with a moist breath. In the yard, the fallen leaves danced with the wind, curling up and down, like a group of butterflies chasing and playing, and suddenly flying outside the yard.
, causing the dead leaves from the trees outside the courtyard to fall one after another, and they chased after him.
In the study, Qin Huaidao was making tea and looking at the scene outside the window leisurely. He was in a good mood. He was newly married this week and did not care about worldly things. He lived a carefree life and his relationship with Li Xueyan also improved by leaps and bounds.
Just as he was thinking about it, two beautiful figures walked outside the door. It was Li Xueyan who was supporting He'er. The two had been together for a week, and they were as good as best friends. This made Qin Huaidao feel relieved and became more and more in love. He quickly got up and stepped forward, supporting He'er slowly.
He sat down slowly and said with concern: "The baby will be born in two or three months, but you have to be careful. If you have anything to do, ask the people below to sit down. Move around more, which is conducive to the birth."
"I know, I've said it many times." He'er smiled happily, stroking her growing belly, feeling very satisfied with everything in front of her, and added: "Sister Yan'er takes good care of me, so just
Don’t worry, young master, if you give birth to a daughter, will you still treat me like you do now?"
"No!" Qin Huaidao said.
He'er's face froze, and a flash of panic flashed in her eyes.
Qin Huaidao suddenly realized that He'er's character was somewhat inferior, sensitive, and couldn't take jokes, so he quickly explained: "I will only treat you better, because I like my daughter. My daughter is considerate and knows how to take care of her parents. My son is too naughty and difficult to discipline.
If I really have a daughter, she will be as beautiful as you."
"Really, don't lie to me?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
He'er thought about it carefully and realized that she had never been deceived before, and she immediately smiled with satisfaction.
Li Xueyan looked at this scene with some envy, but knowing that the two had grown up together and their relationship was unreplaceable, she thought of the purpose of her visit and asked: "Mr. Lang, I would like to ask your opinion."
"Yan'er, what's the matter?" Qin Huaidao looked at Li Xueyan curiously.
"I have a younger sister, Xueying. Last time you met, she is of marriageable age. I would like to ask if the person around you is a good match?" Li Xueyan asked bluntly.
Luo Zhang and Luo Ying flashed in Qin Huaidao's mind. Although the two brothers Luo Ying are not of marriage age, they are not far apart. It can be determined. However, is it inappropriate for my sister-in-law to marry her junior?
After thinking for a while, Qin Huaidao asked: "Do you already have a candidate?"
"How about Luo Zhang?" Li Xueyan didn't hide it either. After getting along with him during this period of time, Li Xueyan knew very well that Qin Huaidao was most annoyed by people who played tricks.
"Does your family want it, or does your little sister want it?"
"My family is interested, and so is my little sister."
Qin Huaidao understood immediately. He wanted to bring the two families closer through marriage. Although political marriage was not good, it was indeed beneficial to the development of the family. People in this era also did this. If two people
If they see each other right and are willing to be together, this kind of political marriage is a good thing.
After weighing for a moment, Qin Huaidao said: "I will find an opportunity to ask Luo Zhang about this matter. Luo Zhang's cousin Luo Ying is also a talented person with extraordinary martial arts skills, which will be of great help to me. There are many unmarried women around you. If there is a suitable one,
Candidates can also be recommended."
Li Xueyan heard that he was a confidant who was of great help to Qin Huaidao. Although he didn't know him or met him, he took it seriously. Since he was Luo Zhang's cousin, he would become a family in the future. He asked, "I do know a lot of unmarried women.
However, how old is Luo Ying and what does she look like? If there is a chance, can you let me meet her? "
"Not for the time being. Let's wait until he finishes his recent affairs. His father and Luo Tong are brothers. He died in the battle to save the Holy Lord. Later, his family fell into ruin. He has been working with me. He is a talented person."
"If you can be valued by your husband, such as being extraordinary, I will remember this." Li Xueyan agreed wholeheartedly, quickly calculated the candidates in his memory, and finally selected two people, and said: "Uncle Li, the king of Hejian County, has a young girl in his family.
Cheng, with a gentle personality and virtuous conduct, is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he is a good match."
The prince of Hejian County was Li Xiaogong, who also had great achievements. He and Li Daozong were close brothers. The two families had a close relationship. Qin Huaidao thought about it and said, "I wonder if Luo Ying likes such a gentle woman."
"There is another candidate, the daughter of General Wei Chigong. She has been fond of wielding swords and guns since she was a child. She is close to the little girl from the Cheng family, but she is also kind-hearted and well-educated."
"One literary and one military, it's interesting. I'll ask him later to see what he wants." Qin Huaidao smiled and looked at He'er: "At the end of the month, let them tally up the accounts. Let me take a look later. In addition, the recent roast
The chickens are selling like hotcakes, the supply exceeds the demand, and the supply is insufficient, so we can mobilize people from nearby villages to help raise them."
"Raising requires food, and many people in nearby villages don't have enough to eat and are unwilling to do it."
Qin Huaidao thought for a while and said: "This is simple. Give them chickens for free, and give them some coarse grains as feed. Pay them monthly, and buy them back after they are raised. It is cost-free for the people and it is profitable. They will definitely agree and send people regularly.
Check the breeding situation. If anyone cheats on food under the guise of raising chickens, he will be fined ten times. If a chicken dies accidentally, it will be fined. If someone steals food, he will be fined ten times."
"Remember, the workshop has recruited a lot of people some time ago, the output has increased, and goods have been hoarded. I heard from Brother Xue that the industrial park has also recruited a lot of people, and the output will definitely increase greatly in the future. Should we sell it as soon as possible, or do we plan to stock up for the future?
"?" He'er asked curiously.
"No, the goods cannot be backlogged. We have to open up another trade route." Qin Huaidao said and became thoughtful.
He'er never asked about the trade route and never asked again.
Li Xueyan's eyes lit up when she thought of her original plan, and she said, "Mr. Lang, can you let my brother Jingren come over to do business?"
Qin Huaidao suddenly realized that although Li Daozong was suppressed by Li Er in various ways, he had not suffered much loss in his background. He had enough connections and manpower, and he was a relative of the emperor. He immediately made a decision and asked with a smile: "What does your father mean?"
"No, I just thought of it, but my brother definitely agrees. He has nothing to do now and wants to achieve something, but he has no chance. My father will definitely agree." Li Xueyan said quickly, without mentioning that he had discussed it with his family before the marriage, for fear that
Qin Huaidao misunderstood and caused unnecessary trouble.
Qin Huaidao was not stupid. He could see that Li Xueyan must have talked with his family before, but it didn't matter. Having his family come over showed that he was not an outsider. He wanted to get closer to the two families. After thinking about it, he said: "It's dangerous to take Longyou Road.
Now that I have some knowledge, using my father-in-law’s methods, it’s okay to organize a caravan to protect him, right?”
"No problem, there are still some loyal guards at home." Li Xueyan was overjoyed.
"That's good. The conditions are the same as those of Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin, Li Derjian and others, 10% pure profit, okay?" Qin Huaidao suggested.
"It doesn't need to be that much." Li Xueyan knew how profitable the caravan was, and 10% of the profit was quite a lot, so it would be nice if he could come over, so he didn't dare to ask for too much.
"There is no rule without rules. Too much is unfair, too little is unjustifiable. By the way, what about Jingren's incompetence? Have you ever been on the battlefield? Longyou Road is not peaceful." Qin Huaidao asked with concern.
Li Xueyan thought for a while and said: "She is similar to Cheng Chuliang, a little weaker than Cheng Chumo, and has never been on the battlefield."
"The strength is somewhat lacking, and I have no actual combat experience. I cannot lead a team, otherwise it will be too dangerous. Let's go to Modong, towards Goguryeo. This area is relatively safe at the moment, but the road is far away, but the benefits are great, but some experience is needed.
Rich veteran assistance." Qin Huaidao adjusted the plan.
Li Xueyan didn't care which route he took, and he also knew that Qin Huai's words were reasonable, so he agreed: "Don't worry, there are a few loyal old men around my father, with good strength and experience. If you don't do it well, you don't need to tell me, I will stop it."
"
Seeing Qin Huaidao nodding, He'er smiled and said, "Sister Yan'er still considers the interests of the family."
"Of course, if you marry a chicken, you will marry a dog, and you will follow the dog. I am now a member of the Qin family, and it is my duty to help my mother's family, but I cannot harm my own interests." Li Xueyan said with a smile, but looked at Qin Huaidao with a pair of wonderful eyes, for fear of
Qin Huaidao misunderstood and had other ideas.
"Little Lord!"
Suddenly there was a rapid shout from outside.
When Qin Huaidao heard that it was Xue Rengui, he quickly shouted: "Come in and talk."
"Crunch——"
The door was pushed open, and Xue Rengui walked in, sweating profusely and panting. He obviously ran all the way over and saluted with clasped fists: "Young Master, two madams."
"Brother Xue, please don't be polite. If you have anything to do, you can talk." Li Xueyan stood up and prepared to help He'er leave.
Qin Huaidao smiled and said: "We are all one family, no problem, just sit down."
After saying that, Qin Huaidao looked at Xue Rengui. Xue Rengui saw that Qin Huaidao did not shy away from Li Xueyan. Naturally, Xue Rengui didn't say anything. He handed over a letter and said: "Yu Chi Baolin sent someone to bring a message and is waiting outside."
"Bring in and talk."
Xue Rengui quickly went out to call someone.
Soon he led a burly man in. Qin Huaidao recognized him as an old man from Yuchi's house. He followed Yuchi Gong to Wagang Village as a personal guard, and now he followed Yuchi Baolin. He poured a cup of tea and handed it over, smiling and saying:
"Uncle, come here, let's have a cup of tea first. Let's talk slowly. There's no rush."
ps: Thank you all for your continued support, you are the most handsome!
