Since Cao Shuo returned to Xudu, he has hardly eaten in the small courtyard where he lives.

Knowing that he was there, of course the partner worked very hard.

In Jia Pei's room, four women sat in the accompanying seats, and Cao Shuo sat upright.

Meals have been served.

Cao Shuo smiled shyly and said to the women: "It's quite comfortable to live like this." ”

Zhen Mi and the others looked dazed.

Even a woman as smart as Jape didn't understand why he suddenly came up with a sentence.

"Why did Childe say that?" Zhen Mi asked.

"It would be nice to have you with you every day when we eat." Cao Shuo said: "The country is fragrant and beautiful, and it is better to have a feast with those men." ”

"If you don't like it, you can not go." Wang Yan said lightly.

"If you don't like it anymore, Childe has to go." Jia Pei smiled slightly: "Men want to achieve great things, accompany us all day long, and we can't help Gongzi lead troops to kill the enemy." ”

"It's still Mrs. Jia who is insightful." Cao Shuo said: "There are many things that I have to do if I don't like them. It's like eating these things, which are not very tasty with less oil and no salt. However, in order not to starve to death, I still have to eat. ”

Cao Shuo was talking about the food on the low table in front of him.

Zhen Mi said in surprise: "The food is very exquisite, it can be seen that the guy has put his heart into it, why does the son say that it is not delicious?" ”

"Have you ever eaten stir-fried vegetables and braised dishes?" Cao Shuo asked.

The four women looked dazed.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, vinegar already existed, but soy sauce had not yet been invented.

Without soy sauce, of course there would be no braised dishes.

As for stir-frying, there is no, because people in this era do not know how to refine vegetable oil or animal oil to fry food, let alone cook with relatively complex processes.

In this era, Cao Shuo has been thinking about how to change weapons, and he really hasn't focused on improving food.

Seeing the four women at a loss, Cao Shuo smiled and said, "Fortunately, I have dinner with you today, but I have thought of a good way to make a fortune." ”

"Childe is not a businessman, what do you want to do with this?" Zhen Mi said: "Selling goods is a cheap business, don't tarnish your reputation." ”

"I am the son of the Cao family, and my status is honorable, of course I won't do that kind of thing." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to Zhen Mi: "But I really need money, I need a lot of money......"

Looking at Zhen Mi, Cao Shuo said: "I heard that the Zhen family in Zhongshan is very insightful about the sale of goods, I wonder if Zhen Ji can ask them to send someone over to help me take care of everything?" ”

"The Zhen family is all taken care of by her mother. Childe needs it, and I ask her to send someone over. Zhen Mi responded.

"That couldn't be better." Cao Shuo hurriedly responded.

Zhen Mi promised to find someone from the Zhen family to make money for Cao Shuo, and Jia Pei and Zhang Chunhua felt uncomfortable for a while.

Jia Pei invited Zhen Mi to be a guest, just to let her share some of Cao Shuo's savage collision at night.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Mi actually compared her to her in terms of making money.

"Miss Zhen." Jia Pei smiled slightly, and said to Zhen Mi: "Gongzi said earlier that he wanted to buy horses, Zhongshan happens to be in the north, I wonder if you can buy horses nearby?" ”

"There are no horses in Zhongshan." Zhen Mi said: "If Gongzi wants to buy a horse, he has to send someone to Hanoi. ”

"Hanoi?" Cao Shuo was stunned: "What are you doing in Hanoi?" ”

In order to buy a horse, he asked many people's opinions, and even thought about going to Liaodong to find Gongsun Du.

If it weren't for Jape's dissuasion, he would probably have to go out in two days.

"After years of war, a lot of horses were trafficked to the Central Plains from the north." Zhen Mi said: "Childe asked who to buy the horse from, but the money was not enough. The concubine remembered that Gongzi had a marriage contract with the young lady of General Lu's family, and a few days ago, Gongzi helped General Lu break Yuan Shu. And General Lü had a very good relationship with Zhang Yang in Hanoi, who sat in the Yewang and had many contacts with the Xiongnu. Gongzi might as well ask General Lu for help and beg Zhang Yang to bring some horses over. ”

"It's complicated." Cao Shuo shook his head and smiled: "Although General Lu promised to marry his daughter to me, he has not sent someone over for a long time, and this family business has not yet been finalized. In addition, I am a member of the Cao family, and General Lu is in Xuzhou, how can he not be wary of the Cao family? Ask him for help, I think it's better to forget it. ”

He said to the women: "It's rare to get together for dinner, and we won't talk about that." ”

"Wang Yan, you will accompany me out of the door when you go back." Cao Shuo said: "Let's go to meet someone. ”

When teaching Cao Shuo's swordsmanship, Wang Yan was very harsh on him.

However, she has an advantage, no matter what Cao Shuo says, she will not ask for reasons.

Cao Shuo offered to take her out, and Wang Yan nodded in response.

Looking at the food cooked on the table, Cao Shuo really didn't have much appetite.

It's either boiled or smoked, it's been a long time since it came to this era, and in addition to buying a horse, many things are progressing step by step.

During the meal, Jia Pei asked this painting to come to live in the small courtyard.

Of course, Cao Shuo, who had seen through it a long time ago, would not say anything, he wished that there would be two beautiful women to sleep at night.

Wang Yan and Zhen Mi have an extraordinary relationship, and they hope that Zhen Mi can live closer.

As for Zhang Chunhua, she has a good relationship with Jia Pei, and of course she will not object to what Jia Pei suggests.

After dinner, Zhen Mi went back to Mrs. Ding and asked her for permission to stay in Cao Shuo's courtyard.

And Cao Shuo left Cao's house with Wang Yan.

When she got to the street, Wang Yan was not as curious about everything as she was when she first came back to Xudu.

Following behind Cao Shuo, she only occasionally looked to both sides of the road.

"In my absence, did Zhen Ji take you to the street?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Nope!" Wang Yan said: "Sister Zhen said that I am a daughter's family, and I shouldn't often go to the market to show my face. ”

"Did she say a word less?" Cao Shuo asked with a smile.

Wang Yan even turned red.

"It seems that it's not that she says less, but that you learn less." Cao Shuo blinked his eyes twice and asked in a low voice: "Did Zhen Ji say that you will marry me in the future, since you are the daughter-in-law of the Cao family, you shouldn't be like a woman in the market and wander outside all day long?" ”

"How is Childe's swordsmanship?" It was clear that if he continued to speak, he didn't know what unacceptable words would come up, Wang Yan asked Cao Shuo.

"You taught me swordsmanship, don't you know?" Cao Shuo said: "I remember you also said that there are few swordsmen in the world who are my opponents. ”

was robbed by Cao Shuo, Wang Yan rolled his eyes.

Cao Shuo took the opportunity to ask in a low voice, "Did the emperor say when he would marry you into the Cao family?" ”

"What?" Wang Yan asked.

"Such a handsome little daughter-in-law can only watch but not eat every day, what a pity?" Cao Shuo pursed his lips and said helplessly: "I want the overlord to bow hard, but I'm afraid you won't." If it's really a fight, I don't think I can get you! ”
