Chapter 233: Old Man Xu: Your sister can already call her father
"Master, you say, what does King Yan mean?"
Mrs. Xu ate another cold lychee and looked at Mr. Xu, "Could it be that he really fell in love with our family's Fubao?" ”
"It doesn't make sense!"
"What kind of family are we, what kind of lintel is King Yan, the door is not right!"
Mrs. Xu still felt that this matter was a little unreliable.
Even if Old Man Xu has a relationship with the Xu Mansion in the capital, their family has nothing to do with that family at all now.
"What do you want to do with all this?"
Old Man Xu smiled slightly, "No matter what he means, everything has me!" ”
"By the way, you send these two baskets of lychees to the old family's and the third family, as for the second family's basket, neither of them is at home, so let's put them in our house first!"
"Done!"
Mrs. Xu nodded, got up and carried the two small baskets of lychees out of the house, and sent them to Boss Xu and Mr. Xu's third room respectively.
As for how they plan to distribute this lychee in the hands of the Zhou family and the Wang family, it is not for Mrs. Xu and Old Man Xu to worry about it.
……
When Boss Xu returned home, he went to the hall as soon as possible, reported Zuoqiu's arrangements for Li Tuo to his father, and told him about the beating he saw Li Tuo on the road.
Of course, Boss Xu hid the situation where he stepped forward and kicked several times.
"That's it!"
Old Man Xu nodded, and did not comment too much on Zuoqiu's arrangement. After all, Zuoqiu is the commander of Anshun County, and although he is Zuoqiu's sworn brother, it is impossible for him to interfere with Zuoqiu's actions.
"Dad, I think it's embarrassing for this Li Xiucai!"
"That's not something we should worry about!"
Old Man Xu waved his hand, "Your fourth uncle is not a three-year-old child, he knows what he is doing." ”
"By the way, I look like it's going to be a big drought this day. I'm going to work with the village to build a waterwheel by the Peach Blossom River. I have already negotiated this matter with your seventh uncle. Wait for Ming'er and the second child to come back, and when you two are racing dragon boats in the Peach Blossom River, take care of them more! ”
"Dad, why do you see that there is going to be a big drought?"
Hearing his father say this, Boss Xu's eyes widened, "When did you have this ability?" ”
"Less poor mouth!"
Old Man Xu glared at Boss Xu angrily, "I'm not joking with you." In a few years, there is a high probability of a major drought. Our family has a large population now. ”
"You are staring at the construction of the waterwheel, your father and I have to find a way to find a way to get more food."
Even if it is a grain stockpile, it cannot be fanfare.
Otherwise, if there is really a big drought year, in case the imperial court does not provide disaster relief in time, this large family with grain may become the target of public criticism.
Therefore, even if you want to store grain, you have to come quietly.
"Got it!"
Although Boss Xu felt that his father was a little chattering, he was still very obedient and did not express any opinions, but was honest and obedient.
After all, whether it is a waterwheel or a grain stockpile, it is a beneficial and harmless thing.
The watermill was built and could be used at any time. When will the farmer be able to skip the work of watering the land?
As for food, there is a restaurant at home.
No matter how bad it is, it's good to keep the sake brewing.
The old wine of the house is more flavorful than the wine sold outside.
"Oh, yes, there's one more thing!"
Old Man Xu smiled and said, "Your sister can already call her father."
“……?!”
Is this also called a thing?
Boss Xu rolled his eyes, is it unusual for his sister to call her father?
