I thought I would sneak out of the house at night, but I didn't want to leave openly during the day.
Sitting in the carriage, Si Ning looked at someone opposite Yun Danfengqing and asked with a smile.
"Then where will General Lu plan to take me, a frail and depressed patient, next?"
"Let's go check out the store first."
This was one of the reasons for the two of them to come out today. Lu Hanxiao was never ambiguous when it came to important matters.
The visibility is not good at night, and there is no way to determine whether there will be customers at that location. This is a very important point when opening a store.
No matter how advantageous the location is, it is of no use if there are no customers.
Lu Hanxiao will fully support whatever Si Ning wants to do and will never act ambiguously.
The carriage stopped in front of a street in the busy city. Ming Han drove and reported to the two people in the carriage.
"Master, madam, the carriage ahead cannot continue moving forward."
Lu Hanxiao lifted the curtain and walked down, turned around and stretched out his hand to Si Ning in the carriage.
When Si Ning was stunned for a moment, Lu Hanxiao reminded him in a low voice.
"This is on the street, you just had a miscarriage..."
It means that Si Ning is extremely weak and needs to be held by this hand.
Si Ning had no choice but to put her hand on his palm.
The man's thick palm surrounded her hand, and the hot heat from his palm made Sining's limbs feel like they were electrified, with numbness all over.
She slightly wanted to let go, but Lu Hanxiao had no intention of letting go at all, and instead held her tighter.
"There are many people on the street, please come closer to me."
As soon as she finished speaking, before Si Ning could react, another hand had already put his arm around her shoulder.
This time, Si Ning's whole body was leaning in his arms, and he was really weak.
People were coming and going on the street, and both of them had good looks, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
Si Ning blushed like something, and tried to push the person away several times, but Lu Hanxiao used the excuse just now to force her to give up her struggle.
Finally, we came to a shop. The shops around were either restaurants or rouge shops. Only this shop was different, selling weapons.
Si Ning looked at the shop, then at Lu Hanxiao, and asked in confusion.
"Is this your shop?"
Lu Hanxiao understood what she meant and nodded.
"The people below are taking care of it. I don't know what was opened."
Originally, he didn't even know where the shop was. If Si Ning hadn't said he wanted to open a shop, Lu Hanxiao would never have taken care of it himself.
Si Ning could also understand that Lu Hanxiao had been guarding the border all year round and came back only a handful of times.
The shop property under his name must be handed over to others to take care of it.
The people below are probably people who don't know how to do business. Lu Hanxiao probably doesn't care much about losing money.
The emperor would reward him generously every year. Except for those who provided for the Lu family, he had no expenses. Money was just a number to him and was not of much use.
Seeing her concentration, Lu Hanxiao spoke and added another sentence from the side.
"From now on, I will leave all these things to you to take care of. Now that I'm married, I won't bother others with everything."
"ah?"
Si Ning came back to his senses and looked at the person next to him uncertainly.
Lu Hanxiao pointed to the shop in front of him and asked.
"How are you satisfied?"
His thoughts were diverted, and Si Ning nodded ignorantly.
"not bad."
Seeing that she was quite satisfied, Lu Hanxiao felt relieved.
"I'm worried that you won't like it, so we have prepared other shops."
"No, I think this is very good. There are restaurants and clothing shops around. The ladies are tired of shopping and just sit down and have a rest."
Lu Hanxiao said, "Okay, I will have the shop vacated tomorrow."
"Okay." Si Ning nodded.
"Let's go eat first."
Lu Hanxiao originally planned to take Si Ning to a restaurant, but Si Ning wanted to try some street snacks.
She has been here for so long, and what she eats every day is the food cooked by the chef in the house. It is rare that the food is made by the master chef in the restaurant, which does not represent the customs and customs of the capital at all.
Si Ning insisted on eating, and Lu Hanxiao followed her and took her to a noodle stall.
The noodle stall was run by a couple, and their eyes lit up when Lu Hanxiao came in.
"Master, why do you have time to come here today?"
Si Ning asked Lu Hanxiao with his eyes, and Lu Hanxiao introduced Si Ning to them.
"This is my wife, Aning, and this is Uncle Li and Aunt Li."
The two of them looked at Si Ning following the voice, and hurriedly gave up the seat next to her for her to sit down.
Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao called Uncle Li and Aunt Li, and the two of them smiled and waved.
"Madam, please don't call us that. Just call us Mr. Li and Mrs. Li."
"You have to shout." Si Ning said with a smile.
The two of them made no secret of their love for Si Ning and chatted with Si Ning about Lu Hanxiao's previous visit to the noodle stall.
"The young master takes good care of our old couple. Once, officers and soldiers passed by our stall and ate noodles without giving us any money. The young master begged for it for us. The two of us were worried that the young master would suffer a loss."
Si Ning heard the meaning of their words and guessed that they did not know Lu Hanxiao's identity and did not reveal it, so he smiled and catered to her.
Uncle Li hurriedly urged his mother-in-law to make noodles, while he turned around and took out the pancakes and some side dishes from the pot on the side.
"My mother-in-law likes to eat these, so I keep them ready. Madam, don't dislike them."
"Won't."
Si Ning reached out to pick up the pancake, but someone picked it up first.
Although Lu Hanxiao has been holding a knife all year round and has a thick layer of calluses on his palms, his hands are very beautiful.
He opened the pancake, put the side dishes inside, rolled it up patiently, and handed it to Si Ning naturally.
Si Ning was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly took it, put it to his mouth and took a small bite, then gave Uncle Li a thumbs-up gesture with crooked eyebrows.
After gesticulating, I realized that this was ancient times and hurriedly started to praise him.
"too delicious."
Uncle Li smiled even more warmly when he saw it, "Hey, okay, as long as you like it. You eat first, and I'll watch the old woman give it to you."
Si Ning nodded, and Uncle Li turned around and went to the front.
Lu Hanxiao raised his hand, poured a cup of hot tea for Si Ning and put it in her hand.
"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke."
Si Ning, "Have you come here often?"
"Sometimes I go into the city and walk around. One time I passed by Uncle Li's stall and saw him in trouble, so I helped him. Uncle Li is a very nice person and his noodles are delicious."
He raised the newly rolled pancake in his hand towards Si Ning and smiled.
"But thanks to you, I'm eating this cake for the first time."
Si Ning was amused by him. Maybe it was because the atmosphere was harmonious, or maybe the environment he was in was relaxing. Si Ning's tone was rare and a little more teasing.
"Then you have to repay me for this great kindness. How do you plan to repay me?"
Lu Hanxiao looked at her, his eyes full of smiles, and replied half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"How about I pledge myself to you?"
