Sikong Ye didn't say much, just nodded, and then said to Cao Yi: "Brother Cao, if you don't want to go to Mengshi with me tomorrow, I want to visit Lu Lao before school starts, this time I brought a little souvenir from the family to Mengshi, and I will share a little with you when the time comes, it's not a good thing, just to show my heart." ”

Cao Yi said with a smile: "As long as you send it, it is estimated that Lu Lao will like it, and more importantly, you can get it to your heart." ”

Wait until noon, Cao Yi is in the private seat, picking up the wind and washing the dust for Sikong Ye and Sikong Youyi, and also letting the maids, Yu Youwei, Jin'er and the two brothers and sisters of Qingfeng Pavilion and Mingde attend the meeting, originally Cao Yi also wanted to introduce everyone at the luncheon, after all, in the next time, Sikong Ye and Sikong Youyi will live in Cao Mansion together, and it is still necessary for everyone to get acquainted with each other.

As a result, Sikong Youyi was dragged away by Tan Yun for only a short time, and she already knew everyone, but it was her brother Sikong Ye, who was introduced by Cao Yi to the rest of the people at the banquet. Cao Yi gave Tan Yun a thumbs up, and Tan Yun returned with a bright smile.

In the afternoon, Red Sleeves took Sikong Ye and Sikong Youyi back to Cao's Mansion first, after all, it takes time to arrange the yard, tidy up the sheets and bedding, and Cao Yi also specially arranged Red Sleeves to make a few sets of clothes for Sikong Ye and Sikong Youyi.

It's not that Cao Yi doesn't respect Sikong Ye because he uses ordinary fabrics to make clothes, but because he respects him, making two sets of clothes with the same fabric that Sikong Ye usually wears, Sikong Ye won't feel unaccustomed, Cao Yi is a human being, so he can naturally know some of the thoughts in Sikong Ye's heart, if Cao Yi unilaterally gives him too much, it will inevitably make Sikong Ye feel that he owes Cao Yi too much, so that when dealing with Cao Yi in the future, he will unconsciously feel that he is inferior to Cao Yi, which is a normal idea that ordinary people will have, unless that person is very, very strong.

Cao Yi deliberately arranged this way in order not to affect the pure friendship between him and Sikong Ye.

And to make a few sets of good clothes for Sikong Youyi, because when he first met today, he noticed that Sikong Youyi's clothes did not fit, and there was a sense of stale after years of washing, as Sikong Ye's friend, he naturally regarded Sikong Youyi as a sister, and from the contact in a short period of time, Sikong Youyi is young, not very literate, and not too knowledgeable, but in such a growth environment, she still behaves and talks well, and there seems to be a natural quiet temperament on her body, which attracts others.

What's more, Cao Yi's attitude towards relatives and friends has always been very good, and for the maids of Qingyun Pavilion, as well as Shantai Mingde and Shantai Yunlan, they have always been willing to spend money on food and clothing, and they are not divided into three, six, nine, etc., basically Cao Yi himself is there

With some things, such as the fabric of clothes and food, he will also make the same standard arrangement for other people as Red Sleeves. Although he has been trying to develop the Taibai Chamber of Commerce and earn more money, he is also willing to spend money on the people around him.

"Youwei, do you want to go to Lu Lao's side with me and Sikong Ye tomorrow morning, he wants to go over to pay New Year's greetings, and then let me come along, it just so happens that I also have something to tell Lu Lao. Didn't Elder Lu ask me to take you with me when I went before? Cao Yi was also wandering around the Drunken Immortal Building at this time, and happened to meet Yu Youwei, who was watching and learning with Jin'er, and said after stopping.

"Okay, do I need to bring something along? After all, I had never been to Lu's house before. Yu Youwei happily agreed, and then suddenly remembered that this was the first time she had gone to Lu's house, and she didn't know if she wanted to bring some gifts, so she asked softly.

"You don't have to bring anything, you can just go over, oh yes, let's bring some props to play, with my understanding of him, he will definitely want to hear you sing that song "Qingyu Case" tomorrow, so you can prepare now." Cao Yi thought about it and replied.

Yu Youwei nodded, "Well, I have practiced "Qingyu Case" before, but singing in front of Lu Lao, it is better to be fully prepared, Jin'er, you come to accompany me, we will practice a few more times in the afternoon, and strive for a perfect performance tomorrow." ”

Then the master and servant left Cao Yi and went to Cao Yi's exclusive seat to practice, without the consciousness of occupying the magpie's nest by himself, Cao Yi looked at the backs of Yu Youwei and Jin'er, and wondered whether to prepare a special practice room for them, so that it was more convenient for them to practice or rest.

Cao Yi shook his head, found the raider who was busy at the counter on the first floor, and told the raider his thoughts, and the raider nodded to indicate that he knew, and would immediately arrange for someone to carry it out. Now the two brothers and sisters of Sikong Ye have gone to Cao Mansion with red cuffs, and the Drunken Immortal Building is the master of the attack, and in the past few months, all the maids in Qingyun Pavilion have made great progress and growth, such as Raider, Musk Yue and others can completely stand alone.

Managing a Drunken Immortal Mansion alone is no longer a problem, which is the result of Cao Yi's conscious desire to cultivate them. After all, in the future, there will be more and more Drunken Immortal Mansions, and the scale of the Taibai Chamber of Commerce will also become larger and larger, and there will be a lot of management positions at that time, and they will all call outsiders to manage Cao Yi.

On the morning of the second day, Cao Yi and others first went to Zuixian Lou for breakfast, and then set off to Lu Lao, and forgot to deliver the worship post at one o'clock yesterday afternoon, so it was temporarily delivered at the door of Lu Lao's house in the morning, and I didn't know if Lu Lao was not at home. However, their luck was not bad, Lu Lao happened to be at home, and there were no other guests at this time, so they were led in by the little maid after a while.

"Good morning Lu Lao, good morning to the two sisters!" As soon as Cao Yi entered the middle hall, he saw that Lu Lao, Mrs. Qin, and Ya Niang were all there, obviously chatting about family life before, and they all had smiles on their faces. immediately stepped forward to say hello, followed by Sikong Ye, Sikong Youyi and Yu Youwei also stepped forward to say hello one by one, but the last three didn't dare to think that Cao Yi was so relaxed and casual, all of them were restrained and respectful greetings.

After some greetings and introductions, Lu Lao, Mrs. Qin and Ya Niang all showed their love for Sikong Youyi, and when they learned that their two brothers and sisters were now living in Cao Mansion, Mrs. Qin even offered to let Sikong Youyi stay in Lu Mansion for a few days and accompany them.

Although Sikong Ye also hoped that his sister could stay and have a good relationship with the two sisters and teachers, but seeing the pitiful eyes of his sister when she looked at her, she had to give up this idea and said respectfully: "Master, my sister has just arrived, and now she is still a little recognized, and I will let her come here to live for a few days after she is more familiar with Jiangning for a while, and she will start taking enlightenment classes in the Zuixian Building from the afternoon." ”

"Oh? Enlightenment class in the drunken fairy building? What's the matter, Cao Yi, you still do the work of a private school? Lu Lao asked curiously.

Cao Yi immediately invited someone to sit in the hall in Zuixian Building to teach, and told Lu Lao about teaching the waiter to read and write.

"Very good, Cao Yi, you still did a good job in this matter, especially the sentence you said to the waiter, 'knowledge changes fate', the words are not rough. Not everyone can read and become talented, and in my Great Yan Dynasty, women can't be officials, but being able to know more words and read more books will be of great benefit to everyone" Lu Lao praised, and Mrs. Qin and Ya Niang also nodded frequently.

Cao Yi received a rare compliment from Lu Lao, and he was also smiling at the moment, he smiled, and said happily: "That's, don't look at who my student is, how bad can I be?" ”

Yu Youwei covered her mouth and watched Cao Yi play treasure, it turned out that the son would also show his stubborn side in front of the elders, and there was still a difference between the previous image of a talented man, but now this look looks more kind.

Lu Laoqi squinted his eyes and looked at Cao Yi playing treasure, and said softly: "I didn't teach you to be a big girl, didn't you always wear a little girl with red sleeves before?" Why, now that you have Youwei, you don't abandon the red sleeves again? ”

Cao Yi's face instantly drooped, and he said aggrievedly: "Old Lu, you are wronged, didn't you say that you asked me to bring Youwei when I came?" ”

"Really? I just asked you to bring Youwei, but I didn't say that you should not wear red sleeves! Lu Lao laughed and said that he was happy to see Cao Yi eating deflated.

"......" Cao Yi looked at Lu Lao with a resentful expression.
