Hu Yunqing recalled what Chongzhen said, as if he knew what he was going to do.
Didn't he just ask Xiao Yi to do something in the morning? I got the news so quickly. Xiao Yi was one of my own, so he shouldn't have said anything. I didn't expect that on the surface, this emperor ignored political affairs, but in fact he knew everything.
After night, Xiao Yi also returned to the house.
"You are finally back. Hurry up and bring the dishes."
Hu Yunqing hasn't eaten yet and will wait for Xiao Yi to come back to eat together.
Xiao Yi, who came back, was also a little touched. Master Hu actually refused to eat and had to wait for him to come back to eat together. He was also very touched in his heart.
But his eyes turned to another person sitting at the table, Zhao Shuangshuang, who was having lunch with him.
Zhao Shuangshuang looked at Xiao Yi and nodded with a smile.
"Hurry up and sit down to eat. It's been a tiring day."
After all the food was served, Zhao Shuangshuang quickly served a bowl of rice to Hu Yunqing, and then a bowl of rice to Xiao Yi. After serving the rice, he said to Xiao Yi with a smile.
"Thank you, Miss Zhao."
Xiao Yi didn't hear what it meant at all, thinking that Zhao Shuangshuang cared about him, and said to him happily.
Regarding Zhao Shuangshuang's words, Hu Yunqing knew very well what they meant. He just smiled awkwardly and continued to eat the rice in the bowl.
"Sir, I found it today."
While Xiao Yi was eating, he remembered that he had not reported the matter yet, so he stood up habitually and wanted to report it.
"Hey, cough, cough, cough."
Seeing Xiao Yi stand up suddenly, Hu Yunqing was so frightened that he choked.
"Hurry up and drink some water."
Hu Yunqing wanted to drink water, but found that his cup was gone. Just when he was about to ask someone to pour water, Zhao Shuangshuang took his cup and said.
Looking at the cup handed over to him, Hu Yunqing looked at Zhao Shuangshuang in surprise. He felt a little uncomfortable, so he didn't think about it anymore and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking the tea, I felt relieved.
"Sir, it was me who was rude."
When Xiao Yi saw Hu Yunqing being choked, he quickly knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
"Okay, okay, we are all our own people, so we don't need so many etiquettes. Let's eat well when we eat. We will talk about these things later."
Seeing that Xiao Yi was still so polite, Hu Yunqing waved his hand and said to him.
"Yes, sir."
Xiao Yi sat back in his seat and said.
After eating and drinking enough, Hu Yunqing held her stomach.
"Now you can tell me about today."
He sat lazily on the chair and looked at Xiao Yi in front of him and asked.
"I found a place in the mountains, and the cowherd boy has been sent there. There are also a lot of refugees in the city. I found more than 30 orphans and sent them to the mountains together."
"In the mountains? What are you doing there? Can't you cultivate them if you stay in the house?"
After hearing Xiao Yi's arrangement, Hu Yunqing only had a one-sided understanding of Dongchang's selection criteria, but did not know the specific selection process. Does this have anything to do with where they were trained?
"Sir, you don't know something about this. The environment in the mountains is not good, which can better stimulate their potential. The too comfortable environment in the city may also reveal our purpose. Raising orphans privately can also be noticed by people with intentions. , it will also be very troublesome by then.”
After listening to Xiao Yi's explanation, Hu Yunqing also felt that it made sense, but he always felt that Chongzhen must know.
Now that everything has been done, Chongzhen will not stop him from doing anything.
"Well, now all the money in the house is in the hands of Miss Shuangshuang. If you have anything to spend money on, just go to Miss Shuangshuang and ask for it."
"Master Xiao, if you have any questions, just ask."
Zhao Shuangshuang was dignified and decent, looking like the hostess of Hu Mansion, and said to Xiao Yi with a smile.
Zhao Shuangshuang was also a sensible person. He saw how much Hu Yunqing valued Xiao Yi, and even asked a guard to sit down and eat together.
Xiao Yi looked at Zhao Shuangshuang with some doubts. He knew Zhao Shuangshuang's identity very well. The amount of silver in Hu's house was simply an unimaginable amount.
I didn't expect that it could be handed over to the daughter of a guilty minister. Are you really not afraid that people will take away all your money?
"Miss Shuangshuang is one of our own now, and she will be responsible for everything in the house from now on. If I am not in the house, Miss Shuangshuang, you must obey my orders!"
Hu Yunqing saw the surprise in Xiao Yi's eyes and quickly warned Xiao Yi.
"Xiao Yi obeys the order. If Miss Shuangshuang has something to do, please ask for help. Xiao will definitely do the work of the dog and horse."
Xiao Yi never thought that Zhao Shuangshuang could gain so much trust just now. Even if he wanted to say something, he could only hold it in his heart and say it to Zhao Shuangshuang respectfully.
Looking at Xiao Yi's appearance, Hu Yunqing was also very satisfied. He hated talkative people the most. After all, Xiao Yi was a rough man who could not manage the whole family. He finally thought of Zhao Shuangshuang. After contacting him, he was completely can take on this important task.
"During the day, my lord ordered you to take in a lot of orphans. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Everything requires money. This money is given to you. You must do what the lord has told you to do well."
Zhao Shuangshuang looked at Xiao Yi respectfully and understood that the latter was unconvinced. After all, she was just the daughter of a guilty minister and a scapegoat. She didn't expect that she could order him.
He took out a thousand tael silver note from his sleeve, handed it to Xiao Yi's hand and said.
"Thank you, Miss Zhao."
The money I asked for at the beginning was thought to be more than enough, but when I actually started working on it, I realized how difficult it was. Money is needed for everything, and the little money was already stretched thin.
After coming back, I was still thinking about how to ask for money. Unexpectedly, Zhao Shuangshuang gave it directly, took the banknote gratefully and said.
"My lord and I have already seen it. How can you do it if you ask for such a small amount of money? Are you trying to show off this time?"
After watching Xiao Yi take the money with a smile, Zhao Shuangshuang and Hu Yunqing looked at each other and said to Xiao Yi with a smile.
"Sir, have you seen it a long time ago?"
After hearing what Zhao Shuangshuang said, Xiao Yi felt a little embarrassed and looked at Hu Yunqing and asked.
"You want to save money for me. This is a good thing. You are a little sneaky. I have told you that I am not short of money now. Even if I am short of money, I will tell the emperor and the money matter will be solved soon. You Just let it go and I'll take care of the rest."
Hu Yunqing stood up and patted Xiao Yi's shoulder. Hu Yunqing could feel Xiao Yi's loyalty to him and encouraged him with a smile.
"Okay, I will let people go into the mountain now and train all these people as soon as possible so that they can work for adults as soon as possible."
Xiao Yi knew that Hu Yunqing must have some place to use these people, seeing that Hu Yunqing trusted him so much. It was also very touching.
