"Today's incident is too abrupt for me, and I apologize again here!" However, Ji Feng still apologized to Li Hui repeatedly, "I still have official business in the future, and I have left!"

After Ji Feng finished speaking, he turned around and left, and Li Hui, who saw Ji Feng leaving, took off the veil on his face and leaned on Li Shuo's body with a pale face.

"I just said that I was going to make a table of noodles to thank Dr. Liao! You help me get the rest right!" Li Hui, her current body is not enough to support these banquets, and now she is so tired that her whole body is shaky.

Li Shuo didn't think about it and hugged Li Hui directly, he instructed the housekeeper: "Bring out all these dishes, go and get a bottle of peach blossom drunk, and greet Doctor Liao!"

Doctor Liao will not be angry Li Shuo put himself aside, a bottle of peach blossoms drunk! That is a rare wine, I have only heard that I have not tasted it, I have to taste it today.

As for Tang Wanrou and Jiang Mingyue, Li Shuo acted as if he hadn't seen them at all, so he just hugged Li Hui and left, and although Dr. Liao saw them, he didn't say anything, humming an unknown song, and followed the housekeeper to the side hall.

Jiang Mingyue was so angry when she saw this, she had never been so snubbed. And Tang Wanrou's gentle smile couldn't hold back, and she stood there with a gloomy face. At this time, Emerald Butterfly hurried over.

"I'm really sorry for the two girls, our girl is unwell and can't entertain the two, so let me send the two girls back, my girl also said that when she recovers, I am inviting the two girls to come over and entertain them!"

Everyone said so, Tang Wanrou and the others were embarrassed to stay here and not leave, although the two of them were unwilling, they could only leave. But when she was on the carriage back, Jiang Mingyue finally couldn't help it.

"It turns out that the person surnamed Li is just a cook, but she put such a big shelf in front of me!Hmph~~!

Tang Wanrou just smiled when she saw Jiang Mingyue like this, but she didn't say anything, although what happened just now confirmed that the other party was a cook, but she could also see that Li Shuo was very interested in her, a woman with a humble background, but as long as a man is willing to touch her to his heart, then she can be high. But Jiang Mingyue's guy is a fool, if she is allowed to make trouble in the past, it will definitely look good, and Li Shuo will definitely dislike her even more at that time, but this Li girl, it seems that she has to find a way to humiliate her well.

Li Shuo put Li Hui on the bed very guilty and said, "It's all my fault, if I left, this wouldn't have happened today!"

"You're the same!" Li Hui changed his position to make himself lie more comfortable, "But that's okay, now that I've confirmed my identity as a chef, don't be suspicious of anything, this is also a good thing!"

"But ~~~!"

"There's nothing!" Li Hui directly interrupted what Li Shuo was going to say next, and then found a topic to divert the matter, "By the way, what did you bring me when you came back?"

"Bring it~!" As soon as Li Shuo heard Li Hui ask himself this, he hurriedly asked someone to bring up a basket, "The place I went to is not far from here, there is a large pear grove there, and they also dug a cellar to store pears, I picked some pears by the way and came back to stew for you to eat!"

"That's good! It just so happens that I've been drinking medicine all the time these days, and my mouth has a bitter taste, you can steam a pear for me first!" Li Hui nodded, it was already a shame to be able to eat fruit in this season, and sure enough, no matter when it came, Li Shuo still cared about himself the most.

Li Hui said that he wanted to eat steamed pears, Li Shuo hurriedly went to prepare, personally selected a pear of moderate size, cut it all together with a knife, and then shaved off the pear core inside, dug out the pear flesh, and then cut the pear flesh into small pieces and put it into the pear with rock sugar, covered the part that was cut before, steamed a cup of tea on the basket, and then served it in front of Li Hui while it was hot.

The pears in the small bowl looked like they were finished pears, Li Hui opened the covered part of the pear, only to see that the rock sugar inside the pear had turned into water, scooped a spoonful with a small spoon and tasted it, the soup was sweet and with a hint of pear fruit, Li Hui ate half a pear while it was hot, and then handed the rest of his food directly to Li Shuo.

Li Shuo didn't dislike it, he directly took the tableware that Li Hui had just used and ate the remaining pears directly, which made the maids standing on the side stunned, you must know that in their memory, the master of their own family is a little clean, usually even they can't serve closely, and the food is also a lot of generals, but now they eat the leftovers of others without any guilt, which makes them unbelievable, but they are now clearly aware that the identity of the other party is the fiancée of their son-in-law, that is to say, the other party should become their housewife in the future。 At this moment, their hearts began to panic again, for fear that Li Hui would remember their neglect and contempt before.

Li Hui sat on the bed at night and looked at it with a travelogue in his hand, and after turning a few pages, he suddenly thought of something, stretched out his leg and kicked Li Shuo beside him, "You go and get me a pen and paper, I want to write a letter!"

Li Shuo hurriedly got up and found a pen and paper, and personally polished the ink for Li Hui, Li Hui thought for a while and wrote a letter, sealed the envelope and drew a pattern on the envelope, and then handed it to Li Shuo, "You should also have business dealings with the Huo family now, right?

"Huo Eighteen handed over to the Huo family?" the expression on Li Shuo's face was a little strange.

"yes! what's wrong?" Li Hui looked at it, and Li Shuo knew that he had something to say.

"It's nothing, it's just that the nearest Huo Eighteen is in Pengcheng, which is not far from here!"

"Really?" asked Li Hui in disbelief.

"Hmm~~!" Li Shuo nodded, "This Huo Shibai is now the leader of the Huo family's fleet going to sea, he came to Pengcheng this time to purchase goods for the next voyage, and the wine in our winery is also on their purchase list, this is the thing I went out to deal with this time, the amount of wine he ordered is too large, and some of the winery can't be prepared!"

"Then hurry up and send someone to contact Huo Eighteen, remember that this letter must be called to Huo Eighteen by hand!" Because of excessive excitement, Li Hui's originally pale face became red first, and the whole person gasped.

"Don't be excited, I'll arrange for this to be sent over immediately!" Seeing this look, Li Hui frightened Li Shuo and hurriedly patted her on the back to give her a smooth breath.

"Hurry~~!

Li Hui fell into a round of violent coughing as she spoke, and when she finally calmed down the cough, it was still almost midnight. And Li Shuo waited until Li Hui fell asleep, then he got up and asked the steward to come over, settle him, and personally go over and hand over the letter to Huo Eighteen.

Li Quan is actually not surnamed Li, he used to be the manager of a commercial house, and later because the main family was down, their family could only find a way out, and then they followed Li Shuo in circles, because he signed a death deed at that time, so he changed his surname to Li. Before he came to the Li Mansion, Li Quan was in charge of taking care of the business dealings of the trading house, and at that time, Li Shuo also valued this and bought his family.

Li Quan still admires his new master very much, not to mention anything else, just relying on this hand of wine-making skills, it is very powerful, and now the place outside is not all clamoring for their wine! It has only been a few years to earn such a big family business.

It stands to reason that the master told him to do things, and as a subordinate, he must do his best to do it, but at this time, Li Quanxin was a little reluctant, not to say that he would get up in the middle of the night on such a cold day, but that he didn't like his father's fiancée very much, not to mention how this woman came from, just looking at her influence on his master didn't like her, in Li Quan's opinion, as a man, he had to do big things, how could he not praise a woman like that!

"The eighteenth master handed over to the Huo family? she still knows the eighteenth master?" Li Quan took out the envelope from his arms and muttered, although he didn't believe it in his heart, but if this person could tie up with the eighteenth master, it would be very powerful, you must know that this master is now in control of the Huo family's ocean-going fleet, and it can be said that in the Huo family, in addition to the head of the family, this master will be counted.

"Steward Li~!" At this time, the driver who was driving the car outside suddenly shouted, "It's snowing, what are we going to do?"

"It's snowing?" Li Quan, who was interrupted from his thoughts, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and suddenly a cold wind poured into the carriage with snowflakes, "It's really snowing!"

Li Quan thought for a while and said: "Continue to hurry, I think this snow should not be small, let's take advantage of the snow just falling, the road can still go, hurry to Pengcheng, don't be in case of such a delay, the snow will fall heavily and there will be trouble if there is no way to hurry!"

"Okay~!Then Steward Li has done a good job!" The coachman also knew that what Steward Li said was reasonable, so he shouted, shook the horsewhip, and urged the horse to speed up.

Finally, when the sky was slightly bright, they rushed to Pengcheng, and at this time the heavy snow continued to fall, although this is the first snow of the year, but it is menacing, the snow on the ground is almost to the calf of the person, fortunately they were in a hurry overnight, otherwise the snow will become like this walking, a bad one will be trapped on the road, and then it will be troublesome.

Coming to the outside of the Huo family's garden in Pengcheng, Li Quan got out of the carriage, tidied up his clothes, and then grabbed a handful of snow from the side of the road and rubbed his face to refresh himself.

"Here you go~!" Li Quan took out a small money bag from his arms and threw it to the coachman, "Go to the old place and wait for me, I'll go and finish this matter first!"

"Okay~!" the coachman quietly weighed the money bag full of copper coins, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Li Quan walked outside the gate of Huo Jiayuan in a few steps, he knocked lightly on the gate, and after a while he heard a trembling voice.

"Who is it? I came to knock on the door early in the morning on such a cold day!" the porter was very unhappy and flashed a small crack in the door, and looked at the people outside with sleepy eyes.

"I'm really embarrassed to disturb my little brother's sleep!" Li Quan stuffed a silver ingot of five taels down the concierge room as he spoke.

This silver was just taken out of Li Quan's arms, and it also carried a trace of his body temperature, and this trace of temperature seemed to warm the other party in an instant, and the expression on the concierge's face instantly became warm after receiving the silver.

"Who should I be, it turns out to be Steward Li of Hongli!" As concierges, they must have a super good memory, so he recognized at a glance that it was Steward Li of Hongli Commercial Bank standing outside the door.

"I'm really sorry, my master has an urgent matter to see the eighteenth master, and I trouble the little brother to report it!" Li Quan finished speaking and stuffed another ingot of silver.

The porter who got the benefit immediately responded to this matter, but it was too early this day, so he invited Li Quan to the small house of the porter first, and then wrapped his clothes tightly and went in to report.

"I don't know if Lord and Master Situ drank until midnight last night and didn't come back until midnight?" I heard the report outside, and the big maid in Huo Eighteen's house said with an unhappy face.

"I also know the coral girl, but the person who came is from Hongli Trading Company, and said that he has something important to find the eighteenth master, isn't it that I am afraid of delaying the big thing before I came!" said the steward with a flattering smile on his face, but he had taken the advantage, so he had to run over at this time.

"I don't see~!I don't see~~!I haven't even woken up from the wine until now!No one is there!" Coral didn't care about this, and just pulled his face and said.

Hearing Coral say this, the person in charge didn't dare to say anything, it must be that this Coral is the person next to the Eighteenth Master, although it is just a room, but the wind on the pillow is still very terrible.

"What's wrong, what's the hell outside!" a voice suddenly came out of the room.

"Master~!" Hearing the movement in the room, Coral glared at the steward, and then hurriedly went in.
