When Cao Shuo arrived, Zhen Mi was looking through the accounts of the back house in the house.

Since Yuan Fang handed over the back house to her to take care of, she has been busy every day.

was looking at the accounts, and the personal maid came to Zhen Mi: "Madam, the son is here." ”

Hearing that Cao Shuo was coming, Zhen Mi hurriedly stood up.

She was about to go out to greet her, and Cao Shuo had already walked in.

"What for?" As soon as he entered the door, Cao Shuo asked with a smile on his face, "It seems to be very busy." ”

"Every month, I have to check the consumption of the back house." Zhen Mi bowed and said: "It's almost the end of the month, and it's another day to calculate how much it cost last month and how to distribute it next month." ”

"How much can I use in the back house?" Cao Shuo said: "If you want to use anything, let people buy it for them." ”

"How can that be?" Zhen Mi said: "The husband doesn't know, there are too many people in the back house, in addition to the use of the ladies, the cost of servants is also not small. If you don't plan carefully, you may spend more money than your husband training a soldier and horse. ”

"So many?" Cao Shuo was stunned.

"Husband, just look at it." Zhen Mi picked up the accounts she had made herself, held them in both hands and handed them to Cao Shuo.

After taking over the accounts, Cao Shuo just briefly browsed it and knew that Zhen Mi had indeed spent a lot of thought on the use of the back house.

Handing the account to Zhen Mi, Cao Shuo said: "It's hard for you to be able to make the usage so clear." ”

"I can't do anything for my husband, the only thing I can do is to be careful in the use of the back house and try to save as much as possible." Zhen Mi replied: "Let people go out to procure, and I will also appoint someone who is not fixed to find out the price first." These people who inquire about the price are not responsible for procurement, and if there is more than one person sent out, no one will take advantage of it. ”

"You've even thought of that?" Cao Shuo smiled: "In this way, the person in charge of procurement will be unhappy." ”

"If they are happy, the husband does not know how much they will lose." Zhen Mi said: "When purchasing this kind of thing, the price is secondary, and the key is that I am afraid that someone will take advantage of it." Originally, what could be done with two copper coins, as long as someone took the benefit, maybe fifty copper coins could not be done. ”

"That's right." Cao Shuo said: "Mi Heng also mentioned this matter to me, and he also suggested that the army and local procurement should use this method. All those who inquired about the price were all sent from Shouchun, and they were not allowed to have any contact with the enemy's government, so as not to collude with Shouchun and local officials and cause losses to me. ”

"Miyo Heng?" Zhen Mi asked, "Is that the madman that the husband used to mention from time to time?" ”

"That's him." Cao Shuo said: "Although Mi Heng is arrogant, this person has a benefit. He is too upright, but he is comparable to the judges in Hebei. Lately I've kept him busy running the school, and when that's done, I'm going to put him in charge of the law and finances. ”

"Except for the husband, I'm afraid no one wants to use someone like him." Zhen Mi said: "Being arrogant is always unlikable. ”

"If he is likable, I dare not use him." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Some things have to use this kind of character who attracts people everywhere. If he is the kind of person who is exquisite, how can he be willing to offend others for the sake of business? In charge of finances and the law, you really need to use such people. ”

"It's still thoughtful." Zhen Mi said: "I also planned to tell my husband about these things in the back house, I thought it might be of some help to my husband, but I didn't expect that someone under my husband had already done this." ”

"I don't have some talents in my hands, how dare I fight in the north and south?" Hugging Zhen Mi's waist, Cao Shuo asked, "Yuan Fang will give birth in two days, are you ready?" ”

"The eldest lady's delivery is the top priority of the back house." Zhen Mi replied: "I have already arranged for Mrs. Wen to live in the back house, and she can deliver the eldest lady at any time." ”

"A woman loses her body the most when she gives birth." Cao Shuo said: "You have to take care of her, and you must not let her body fall into any problems." ”

"Don't worry, husband, I have all the arrangements." Zhen Mi responded, and then asked Cao Shuo: "The husband said earlier that the eldest lady was pregnant with a daughter, I don't know what the evidence is?" ”

"I'm just casually saying that experience is mostly useful, and there are times when I get it wrong." Cao Shuo said: "Actually, it makes no difference to me that she gives birth to a boy or a girl. ”

"How can there be no difference between boys and girls." Zhen Mi said: "The husband fought in the south and the north, and the foundation he laid down must be inherited in the future. If the eldest lady gives birth to a son, her husband will also be a successor. ”

"If there is a successor, you must be able to keep the family business." Cao Shuo said: "What I am most worried about is that in the future, when the children grow up, they will kill each other for the sake of the family business. This kind of thing has happened throughout the ages, but it has never happened less. ”

"Other people's homes may be, but the husband's house will definitely not." Zhen Mi said: "I will take care of the rooms for my husband and the eldest lady, let them all stop a little, and don't think about fighting for anything with the eldest lady's son." ”

"Don't you want the children you will give birth to in the future to be great?" Cao Shuo asked suddenly.

Zhen Mi shook her head: "To tell the truth, I don't want my children to be heroes like their husbands, I just hope that they can live well, and it's best not to experience the invasion of war again." ”

"If everybody could think like you, there would be no more fighting." Cao Shuo said: "You are right, in fact, in this life, as long as you can live in peace." I fight because I have too much to protect, and I don't want to lose, so I can only keep making myself stronger. ”

"With the husband here, we are also at ease." Zhen Mi responded softly.

"Yuan Fang mentioned something to me." Putting Zhen Mi in his arms, Cao Shuo smiled and said, "She said that you are a flat wife, since she is pregnant, it will be your turn next." ”

"I also want to give birth to a son and a half daughter for my husband." Zhen Mi lowered her head and said, "I just don't know if I can have the blessing of the eldest lady." ”

With her lips pressed to Zhen Mi's ear, Cao Shuo whispered: "Yuan Fang was able to get pregnant because I was with her every day in those days. She slept alone for many days before she finally had ......"

"Husband doesn't want to ......" Zhen Mi was stunned for a moment and asked in amazement.

"Wouldn't you like to sleep alone?" Cao Shuo smiled wickedly at her.

"Husband, don't let me sleep alone." Zhen Mi hurriedly said: "Even if there are sisters, every time I serve my husband, I am still sore, and my bones seem to be falling apart." If you sleep alone, you won't die......"

"Since you're afraid, let Guo Xin sleep with you." Cao Shuo smiled wickedly and said, "But I will take special care of you and give you more." ”
