You don’t even need to ask, Xiao Han didn’t clean it up!
You want Xiao Han to take the initiative to clean up the house? That is simply a dream! If it doesn't look like a pig's nest for you, you will be thankful!
"It seems that your new maid is very diligent..."
For some reason, Xue Pan looked at the room and felt a little bit tasteful again.
Thinking of a beautiful girl who was with Xiao Han every day these days, even if the girl's life experience was very pitiful, Xue Pan felt uncomfortable in her heart, like a child who had his beloved toy stolen.
"Ahem..."
Xiao Han, who was drinking water, almost spit out a mouthful of water from his nostrils when he heard this!
He quickly wiped his mouth and changed the subject: "Hey, just so-so! Panpan, you haven't said why you came from Chang'an yet? Is there anything you can't do to write a letter? It's so dangerous along the way!"
"What? Can't I come? Or don't you welcome me?" Xue Pan snorted softly, pretending not to hear the worry in Xiao Han's words.
As for the reason for coming here, she naturally couldn't say that she had received a message, which vaguely stated that Xiao Han had brought home a beautiful woman, so she rushed over anxiously.
Xiao Han smiled bitterly, knowing that you can't reason with women, they won't reason with you at all!
Hitting a nail that was neither soft nor hard, and still unable to explain it, Xiao Han could only continue to pick up the cup and drink water helplessly, as if he was full: "If you can come, why can't you come? Of course I am happy that you can come.
Yes, I'm just a little worried about you! Besides, I guess I should be able to return to Chang'an by winter."
Xue Pan felt much better after hearing these words, so he stopped embarrassing Xiao Han, pointed outside and said: "Okay, okay, look at your sad face, I will tell you! In fact, I am following Butler Lu
Come here, he wants to come over to check the accounts with you, so I thought it would be fine anyway, so I just thought he was here to learn more, so I followed him. After all, my brother also said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.
"
Xiao Han nodded, thought for a while, and suddenly looked up at her: "Just because of this? Isn't it because you miss me and come here to see me?"
Xue Pan rolled his eyes at Xiao Han and said with a half-smile: "Look at you? What's so good about you? You're not handsome either, not as good-looking as Xiao Qi!"
This was undoubtedly another heavy blow! Poor Xiao Han's head hit the table hard, making a crisp "clang" sound, which made Xue Pan giggle.
"Okay, stop pretending to be dead! I still miss you a little bit!"
"Just a little? How big?" Xiao Han suddenly became energetic and hurriedly raised his head to look at Xue Pan expectantly.
Xue Pan blinked, pinched two fingers together, made a movement smaller than the skin of a melon seed, and said seriously: "Probably, just a little bit..."
"Bang..."
Xiao Han's head hit the table again, and this time there was no other sound.
The fun and banter between lovers is always so cheerful and interesting.
Although a marriage where everyone respects each other as if they are guests, is envied by countless people, is such a relationship really perfect? Xiao Han always feels that it is not necessarily the case!
People live forever.
Youth is free, youth is wild, middle age is calm, and old age is healthy.
Only after going through these four stages can this be the most perfect life! At this age, if you don't have a vigorous love, wouldn't you be sorry for yourself?
At least Xiao Han felt that if he was asked to marry a woman he had never met in the future, he would not be too happy even if he died! It would be better if she was more beautiful, but if she grows up to be like Zhong Wuyan, wouldn't half of her life's happiness be ruined?
?
Laughing, making some harmless jokes, and so on until evening, Xue Pan and Xiao Ai, who had enjoyed a big meal, returned to the prepared room early to rest.
The past few days of wind, food and rain were indeed very tiring. Even Xiao Ai, who never made a sound when sleeping, began to snore on the pillow, as low and deep as a sleeping kitten.
Xiao Han was not asleep yet. He was sitting opposite Butler Lu in his room, listening to Butler Lu's detailed description of the affairs in the fief.
Although I have roughly understood it through letters, some of the details can only be understood by listening to it with my own ears.
Butler Lu was in good spirits. He took a nap at the fat cook's place in the afternoon, so he was not sleepy at all now. He was holding a small purple clay pot and said to Xiao Han:
"Don't worry, Mr. Hou, everything is fine at home! The girl in purple has completely adapted to the role of shopkeeper, and even the old shopkeepers can't find fault with everything she handles.
It’s just what you told me in your letter. You are not allowed to sell more of the rare things at home, so every time good products are released, they are always snatched away as soon as possible. As for ordinary goods, after all, our store opened a little late.
There are no channels and no money to be made, so the business is not very good.
However, Ziyi has already started arranging manpower, and plans to go around to see if there are any rare goods or good items, so that we can get some back to enrich the store. It is said that some of them have traveled far and have reached Hebei."
I told Xiao Han everything about my family in detail. He already knew these things very well!
Because Butler Lu's youngest son lives a busy life, he is also among the personnel assigned this time. Even though there is chaos outside, running around is really worrying.
Xiao Han, who was sitting opposite, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, he interrupted Butler Lu and said solemnly: "Uncle Lu, there are specialties in martial arts. You can handle these matters as you see fit. I won't interfere too much!"
As for the spreading of manpower, that’s what I told you to do!
It can be said that everything in our family is starting from scratch. Now, we may not have to worry about food and clothing, but our family is not my home alone. I should think about the future in advance! More trade routes means more eyes and ears. In the future
It’s also an extra guarantee!”
Butler Lu stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Lord Marquis, your vision is naturally beyond the reach of people like this old slave. Since Lord Marquis, you have this plan, let the people behind you make more preparations for them!"
Xiao Han remained silent and did not correct Butler Lu's claim. In fact, he knew that as long as he lived, the Xiao family would at least not make fundamental political mistakes! After all, he had the farthest vision in the world! But in the future,
Without this foresight, can the Xiao family still live comfortably in this world?
I have said it many times, Xiao Han is not a saint, he is also an ordinary person. As an ordinary person, it is the most common thing to think about himself and his descendants! Not to mention the current Xiao Mansion, there are thousands of people
You can't help but be careless when eating with him.
Knocking on the table, Xiao Han looked at Butler Lu and said slowly: "Get everything ready! It can be said that they are going to open up new opportunities. This matter is not as simple as opening up a territory and expanding the territory! The rewards for those who have meritorious deeds will be doubled.
!
And one more thing, when our family members go out, they must pay attention to safety first! If money and goods are lost, they are lost, but people cannot be lost! Even if the goods in hand are worth thousands of gold, we can make up for it in the future.
But if a person’s life is lost, it can never be replaced!”
Butler Lu nodded heavily. He knew that Xiao Han was absolutely sincere when he said these words! He was not thinking about some invitation to win people's hearts.
The Marquis is kind-hearted and always protects his own family first! Butler Lu was greatly relieved that he could meet such a master in his lifetime. It was him and so many people in the Xiao family.
Lucky!
Of course, that's why! Although the family has grown rapidly, nothing as disgusting as other big houses has ever happened! Not even the most common petty thefts!
The high wages and rewards every month! There are even vacations, so that the people of the Xiao family can straighten their backs when facing anyone!
I heard that things were often dropped in the palace, but this did not exist in the Xiao Mansion! Even if I picked up a penny on the ground, I would wipe it clean carefully and put it in the concierge waiting for someone to collect it.
Yan Zhitui, an old man from Chang'an, said in his family motto: A room full of orchids is a good place, but you won't smell its fragrance for a long time!
The Xiao Mansion used its own actions to prove the truth of this statement.
