You don’t even need to ask, Xiao Han didn’t clean it up!
Do you want Xiao Han to take the initiative to clean up the house? That's just a dream! If it doesn't look like a pig's nest for you, you'll 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 for a while, 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, it's 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, 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 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, let me tell you! In fact, I am following Butler Lu Come here, he wanted 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 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 is undoubtedly another heavy blow! Poor Xiao Han's head hit the table hard, making a crisp sound, which made Xue Pan giggle.
"Okay, stop pretending to be dead! I still miss you a little bit!"
"Just a little? How much bigger?" 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 playful banter between lovers is always so cheerful and interesting.
Although a marriage that treats each other with respect and treats each other as equals is envied by countless people, is such a relationship really perfect? Xiao Han always feels that this is not possible!
One lives for one life.
Youth is free, youth is wild, middle age is calm, and old age is healthy.
Only after experiencing these four stages can this be the most perfect life! At this age, if you don't have a vigorous relationship, wouldn't you be sorry for yourself?
At least Xiao Han felt that if he was allowed to marry a woman he had never met before in the future, he would not be too happy even if he died! It would be fine if she was prettier, but if she grew up like Zhong Wuyan, wouldn't half 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 exhausting. Even Xiao Ai, who never made a sound when sleeping, started to snore on the pillow, as low and deep as a sleeping kitten.
Xiao Han hadn't slept yet. He was sitting opposite Butler Lu in his room, listening to Butler Lu's detailed description of things 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 does.
Just what you said in your letter. The few rare items at home are not allowed to be sold more, so every time good products are released, they are always snatched away immediately. As for general goods, after all, our store opened a little late. We don’t have many channels and we don’t make much money, so the business is not very good.
However, Ziyi has already started arranging manpower and plans to look around to see if there are any rare goods or good items, so that he 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 has a busy life and is among the personnel assigned this time, it is really worrying that he is running around in chaos even though there is chaos outside.
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 spreading the manpower, that’s what I told you to do!
It can be said that everything in our family is starting from scratch. Now, I 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, and more protection for the future! "
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 prepare more 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 has 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 ordinary thing to consider for yourself and your children and grandchildren! Not to mention the current Xiao Mansion, where there are thousands of people eating with him, so he can't help but be careless.
Knocking on the table, Xiao Han looked at Butler Lu and said slowly: "Prepare everything that needs to be prepared! 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 service will be doubled. !
And one more thing, when our family members go out, they must pay attention to safety first! Money and goods are lost when they are lost, but people cannot be lost! Even if the goods on hand are worth thousands of gold, we can replace them later if they are lost, but if a human life is lost, we can never replace it! "
Butler Lu nodded heavily. He knew that Xiao Han definitely meant it sincerely when he said these words! Rather than thinking about the invitation to win people's hearts.
My Lord Marquis is kind-hearted and always protects his family first! Butler Lu was greatly relieved. He and so many people in the Xiao family were so lucky to meet such a master in his lifetime!
Of course, that’s why! Although the family has grown rapidly, nothing like the disgusting things that have happened in other big houses has never happened! Not even the most common petty theft!
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 often fall out of the palace, but this does not exist in the Xiao Mansion! Even if I find a penny on the ground, I will clean it 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: If you are good at a house of orchids, you will not smell its fragrance for a long time!
The Xiao Mansion confirmed the truth of this statement with its own actions.
