The white shopkeeper was in the Hou Mansion today, Qin Xiao thought that Tang Rong was also there, but there was no Tang Rong around.

"Rong'er didn't come over today." Seeing Qin Xiao looking left and right, the white shopkeeper actually saw through Qin Xiao's thoughts, and said with a smile: "She is a little unwell, so I didn't let her come over today." However, the eldest prince arranged for you to be next door to me, and I can see you from time to time in the future. Rong'er's cooking skills are very good, if you have time, you can come to my house to eat at any time. ”

Qin Xiao smiled: "That's great." Shopkeeper, or I'll give you some food money every month, and I'll partner with you in the future. ”

"I'm afraid it's just an excuse to partner with me." The white shopkeeper smiled: "What you really want to partner with is someone else, right?" ”

Although Qin Xiao was thick-skinned, when the white shopkeeper said this, he still felt that his old face was red, and he laughed dryly.

Since someone sent the white shopkeeper home, Qin Xiao and Yuwen Chengchao rode to the new house.

The house is not too big, but the east and west wings of the front door and backyard are equipped, with blue bricks and white tiles, compared to Qin Xiao's house in Turtle City, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth, I don't know how good it is.

Two servants were arranged in the house, a man and a woman, both of whom were not young, who were responsible for cleaning and cooking, and the two entered the house, and the lights were already lit in the house.

Yuwen Chengchao took Qin Xiao around the house, everything that should be ready, whether it is tables and chairs or decorations, it is obviously expensive, Qin Xiao knows that the Yuwen family is sincere to win himself over, as the old marquis said, the Yuwen family can have today, that is to reuse talents.

In the eyes of the Yuwen family, he can obviously be regarded as a talent.

"Eldest Prince, thank you so much." Qin Xiao said: "For so many years, I really don't have a real home, and this will be my home in the future." ”

Yuwen Chengchao shook his head and smiled: "You are wrong, the so-called home has never been a house, but a wife and children, as long as the wife and children are around, everywhere is home." He pointed to the left, there was a stone wall, and said softly: "Next door is the white shopkeeper's house, anyway, the white shopkeeper has said it, you can go to his house at any time to eat, since he has already said this, you don't have to be polite." Leaning closer to Qin Xiao's ear, he whispered: "Tang Rong's side, then you still have to pay attention to it and let her become the master of this house as soon as possible." ”

Qin Xiao said: "I'll do my best, I'll do my best." ”

"Don't just talk about it." Yuwen Chengchao chuckled and said: "A manly man, even a woman can't conquer, if you go to do something big?" Pointing to the high wall, he said: "You don't have this wall, I heard that the white shopkeeper goes to bed early at night, you can go over the wall in the middle of the night to talk to Tang Rong, the talented and beautiful women in the drama are all doing this, you want to live next door to the white shopkeeper, isn't it just for convenience?" ”

Qin Xiao didn't expect Yuwen Chengchao to give him such an idea, so he immediately shook his head and said, "Eldest prince, this will never be possible, I am not that kind of person, Rong..... Tang Rong is not that kind of person, the more I like her, the more I have to respect her, this kind of thing like going over the wall, with my temperament, I can't do it. ”

Yuwen Chengchao said: "I'm just casually saying, what to do, you can do it yourself." He shouted, "Song is honest." ”

The manservant hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down his hand, and Yuwen Chengchao said: "In the future, your husband and wife will be responsible for serving the Wang Riding School, and as before, the salary will still be received at the Hou Mansion, but you will work here." Wang Qixiao is an errand boy in the army, so he can't live here often, and your husband and wife take care of the house on weekdays

Child. ”

Although the old marquis already knew Qin Xiao's identity, he still concealed Qin Xiao's true identity from the outside world for the time being.

Song honestly said: "Yes, eldest son!" He turned to Qin Xiao and saluted: "Young master! He saw that Qin Xiao was less than twenty years old, so it was naturally difficult to call him "master", and the title of "young master" was the most appropriate.

"Song Laoshi used to be an errand boy in the shop, he was very honest, but he was very capable and did things in an orderly manner." Yuwen Chengchao said: "His mother-in-law is also very diligent, and her cooking skills are very good, she was a cook in the Hou Mansion before, and she can cook dishes from all over the world, and my father specially sent her over to take care of you." ”

Song is not fifty years old, and his wife Song is much younger than him, only thirty-five or sixteen years old, white and fat, worthy of being a cook, with a plump figure, at this time, he has already come over to salute Qin Xiao, and said: "What the young master likes to eat, give an order, and the rough woman can do it." ”

"Okay." Qin Xiao smiled and said, "If you want to eat anything in the future, I'll tell you." ”

Yuwen Chengchao settled Qin Xiao, and didn't stay long, he left, Qin Xiao sent out the door, returned to his house, looked around, and was really satisfied.

The room was spacious, ancient and ancient, Qin Xiao suddenly thought of the little aunt, and thought that if she was greedy for money, if she knew that she had such a house now, I am afraid that she would not leave here again.

Chef Song seemed to have been prepared, and it didn't take long for her to bring the food over, and said respectfully: "Young master, it's too late today, and I don't know what you like to eat, so I made a few specialty dishes casually, you taste them first, if you don't like it, I'll make them for you again." ”

Maybe it's because the Hou Mansion is very strict with the selection of cooks, Chef Song looks clean and clean, and her appearance is not bad, half-old, so people will naturally not lose their appetite when they see it.

She is also skillful, and she is also very particular about the presentation of dishes.

"Aunt Song is a good cook!" Qin Xiao tasted a few dishes, and the taste was really not bad, worthy of being the cook from the Hou Mansion, and gave a thumbs up: "With you in the future, I am really blessed." ”

Chef Song smiled and said happily: "It's good if the young master likes it." He said, "Young master, I'll go and prepare bath water for you, you can take a bath after eating, and then have a good rest." ”

"No, no, no." Qin Xiao hurriedly said: "I'll come by myself later, don't bother you." ”

Chef Song hurriedly said: "With us, where to use less initiative." If the young master thinks I am rude, I will be careful and never drive us away. ”

Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment and said, "I didn't say I wanted to drive you away?" ”

"Young master, we will serve you well." Chef Song said: "I won't tell you anything, the Hou Mansion will give us double wages, just to let us serve well here, if you kick us out, then .....!" ”

Qin Xiao suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "You can rest assured, just do a good job here, unless you want to leave one day, I won't drive you away." ”

"It's nice to have a young master." Chef Song was relieved and said with a smile: "You are so young, you have such a big house, you are really promising." The rough woman will go and prepare the bath water for you. ”

Qin Xiao knew that these two people were paid to work, and if they were polite, they would be uneasy and nodded: "Then there is Aunt Lao Song." ”

Chef Song retreated with a smile on her face.

Qin Xiao has been in Turtle City for a few years, never

It's all he who serves others, where has there been a time when he was served by others, now the Yuwen family is both a house and a servant, and he is very enveloped by himself, which naturally hopes that he can be loyal to the Yuwen family in the future and work hard for them.

He didn't think about really being a slave in the Yuwen family, thinking that after the collapse of the Zhen family, he would carry hundreds of thousands of taels of silver tickets in his arms, and it would not be up to the world.

When the time comes, go back to Turtle City first, find Momiji, and ask Momiji who is instructed to protect himself secretly, if Momiji tells the truth, it's okay, if you really don't say it, then you buy a big house in Turtle City, and then open a few shops, naturally you are at ease.

The Zhen family fell, and he had no enemies in Turtle City, but many of the officials in the Governor's Mansion were familiar with him, and there was no shortage of friends.

Suddenly thought of the white shopkeeper's house next door, Tang Rong also lived in it, if he returned to Turtle City, wouldn't he have to be separated from Tang Rong.

At the moment, he thought that even if the Zhen family collapsed, he was not in a hurry to leave immediately, if he could marry Tang Rong, it would be the scenery to return to Turtle City with Tang Rong.

He couldn't help but think of himself riding a high-headed horse, taking Tang Rong, a great beauty, back to Turtle City, buying a house and buying a property, and a picture of the scenery of returning to his hometown in fine clothes, and he couldn't help but get excited in his heart.

After eating, taking a shower, and changing into the home clothes that I had prepared long ago, I felt relaxed all over my body.

It was late, Qin Xiao asked Song Laoshi and his wife to go to rest by themselves, and he closed the door and practiced for an hour, his fingers poked and poked dozens of times, although it was late at night, he was full of energy and did not feel sleepy.

He walked out of the room and walked among the porches, only to find that the house was too empty, there were only three people living in this house, and everywhere seemed empty and deserted, which really made people feel very comfortable.

suddenly remembered Yuwen Chengchao's words, and only felt that what he said made a lot of sense, the house itself is not a home, only when the wife and children are together, that is the home that really belongs to him.

This house really seems to lack a hostess.

He couldn't help but look up at the east wall, and across the wall, there was the white shopkeeper's house.

The night was deep, and it was quiet.

Qin Xiao didn't know how many people there were in the white shopkeeper's house, but he had heard Yuwen Chengchao say that the white shopkeeper had already had this house, although he was far away in Wutuo, but this house had been cleaned and cleaned up, thinking that the situation over there should be the same as his own side, and there were also servants like Song Laoshi in the house.

The moonlight sprinkled down, but Qin Xiao couldn't help but walk to the root of the east wall, hesitated, suddenly took a deep breath, jumped down, the whole person was already lightly rising, his hand was on the wall, his arm was forced, the whole body had turned over the wall, squatting on the wall, looking down condescendingly, but below was also an elegantly laid out courtyard, rockery flower garden, there was a pool not far away, on the edge of the pool, there was a small pavilion, but it was much more beautiful than his side.

Qin Xiao took a closer look at the pavilion and found that there was a lantern hanging on the pillar of the pavilion, the pink lantern was glowing with a faint light, among the stone pavilions, there was a figure dancing, he was on the high wall, condescending, not too far from there, and his eyesight was good, he could see that the dance was beautiful, like flowing clouds, dancing with light yarn, and the silhouette of his body was not Tang Rong.
