Bai Baiqi did not answer directly, but looked at Bai Jinli and said with some lack of confidence.

"Little sister, before answering this question, can you agree to my request?"

"What requirements? Let's hear it first. ”

Bai Jinli didn't agree in one go, she said that she would listen to the second brother first and tell her what the requirements were, in case she couldn't do it if she agreed, it would be embarrassing.

"No matter what I say for a while, don't scold me."

"Huh?"

"Okay, I'll just get to the point. The two suggestions you mentioned that day, I seriously considered them for a long time and decided to choose both, cough. ”

"Oh, children only do multiple-choice questions, of course adults choose all of them, that's what you mean?" Bai Jinli looked at him.

"Ahem, little sister, I've thought about it, in fact, compared with the two, I'm more interested in doing business, and I'm also willing to learn from others."

"However, I think that since I am a member of the family, your second brother naturally wants to be a useful person, and in addition to doing business, I also want to learn some ways to save my life and fight.

In this way, you can not only protect your family and protect yourself, but also be more confident. In case I encounter trouble in my shop in the future, I can handle these well, don't you say? Bai Qi asked with a smile.

In fact, after pondering for a few days, he felt that he finally had such an opportunity to learn and progress, and he must not waste it.

Now that the eldest brother is an official, and the younger brother-in-law is also an official, he is not of much value at home alone.

He likes to do business, but he thinks that if he just does business, he doesn't seem to be as good as others.

If you can not only make money in business, but also know how to fight and defend yourself, then there are two skills that sound better than the big brother.

In case he fails to do business in the future, he has a second way to go.

"Okay, that's okay."

Hearing Bai Jinli nod in agreement, Bai Baiqi suddenly looked surprised, and was about to say thank you when he heard Bai Jinli continue to speak.

"Second brother, as a family member, I can stand up to any decision you make, but before that, I need to see your sincerity."

"You say you prefer to do business, okay, it means that you have chosen the first option subjectively, but you don't want to give up the second option as an add-on.

In this way, during the time when you go to the other courtyard to study with Steward Xu, as long as you can insist on writing three characters a day, reciting one page of the book, and running around the Zhuangzi twice with a sandbag tied to your legs.

If you've done all of this, I'll find someone to help you implement the second suggestion. The first suggestion is now. Bai Jinli said.

In order to test Bai Qi's sincerity, she came up with such a method.

Business can be done with a smart brain, but if she wants to learn martial arts and have certain achievements, she has to look at the patience and perseverance of her second brother.

After all, learning martial arts is something that needs to be persisted in for a long time, and it is not good if you give up halfway.

Just let him think about it during this time, whether he really chose to do both at the same time.

"Okay, no problem." Bai Qi nodded and agreed.

After chatting about this, Bai Jinli did not hesitate, quickly picked up the pen and wrote down an IOU of 200,000 taels of silver, and handed it to Bai Baiqi together with the 200,000 taels of money she took out from the room.

Bai Tianqi took the IOU and glanced at it, then solemnly wrote his name with a pen and pressed a handprint.

The moment he wrote his name, he suddenly saw the gap between himself and his little sister, and couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

Think about the time when my little sister was stupider than him in the past, look at the words that people write now, how beautiful and beautiful they are.

Look at the name he wrote, it's like a dog, it's too embarrassing.

No, when he has time, he must practice his words well.

"Okay, second brother, then it's decided. You go back and clean up now, and tomorrow you will take the bus and carriage to the other courtyard to report to Steward Xu. ”

Bai Jinli put the IOU next to her mouth and blew it, and folded it and stored it after seeing that the handwriting was dry.

"yes, okay." Bai Qi nodded and left.

After the trial operation of the Beijing bus carriage and the ox cart, and continuous improvement, this industry has been gradually improved.

At the suggestion of Lin Shenyuan, His Majesty launched several lines in the capital, and opened a line from the capital to the suburbs.

The first line to open to the outside is to Fangxin Village.

In any case, Fangxin Village is a demonstration park after all, and it can be regarded as the first test site on the outskirts of Beijing.

One of the stops on that line is not far from Bai Jinli's Courtyard.

This is the greatest good news for the tenant farmers in the courtyard.

The availability of bus, ox carts and horse-drawn carriages meant that they could go back to their homes from time to time.

The last time Xu Yu brought back those new news and told everyone, everyone was crazy with joy.

They had no idea that there was anything so good about it.

In the following work, everyone in the manor in the courtyard was very diligent, and they were struggling to express themselves one by one.

Because they all want to get a free monthly pass for riding the bus carriage and ox cart.

In the tea garden, some people are participating in the later affairs of tea, and some people are beginning to do new things in the manor according to Steward Xu's arrangement.

In the future, the manor will no longer grow tea, but fruit trees, medicinal herbs, and flowers, as they used to only grow tea, they have a lot to learn.

After the devastation of these days, Steward Zhao and the others in the manor cried every day and begged everyone to send him to see the official, he would rather be locked in a cell and spend his time in vain than live like a dog in a small dark place on that side.

However, no one paid any attention to him.

After Xu Yu finished the day's accounts, he put down his pen, got up and rubbed his wrists, and then walked outside.

"Dad, do you feel any abnormal changes in your legs these days?"

Squatting in front of Steward Xu's wheelchair, Xu Yu reached out to help his father pinch his legs.

This is also what the young owner told him before.

Although his father's leg is now crippled, in order to keep his leg from deforming, he has to pinch it more every day in addition to taking a medicinal bath.

After he helped his father pinch his leg the day before yesterday, his father said that his legs were slightly hot, and even his right leg twitched involuntarily.

So after Xu Yu finished busy today, he asked with concern.

"There's nothing too big of a back...... Hiss, it seems to be starting to heat again, and his right leg still hurts a little. ”

"Hurt? It's true? Dad, do you have a feeling in your legs? ”

Hearing Steward Xu say this, after Xu Yu said happily, he couldn't help but increase the force in his hand and squeeze it hard, and then looked up to observe his father's expression.

"Well, yes, it hurts a little."

"Great, Dad, it seems that taking a medicinal bath every day is really useful, why don't I take you to the Shaodong family early tomorrow morning and let her help take a look?"

"Isn't it good to go to the door tomorrow, there are still two days before the time the owner said." Steward Xu spoke with some hesitation.

He was actually a little surprised by the slightest reaction in his legs, but more uneasy and scared.

He didn't understand that, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing that his legs were reacting now.

He naturally hopes for a good outcome, but he inexplicably has a fear of the unknown.

Just like today's adults, in addition to checking the balance of the bank card, the most feared thing is to check the medical examination report of the hospital.

Afraid that if something goes wrong, and that I can't accept the result, I instinctively want to back down.

"It's okay, Dad. Time is dead, man is alive. Now that your leg has reacted, it's natural to go to the owner to help you take a look. ”

"The last time I came out of the owner's house, the owner also explained to me that you should pay more attention to the condition of your legs, and if there is a problem, go to her in time."

"That'...... Okay, let's go to the owner tomorrow. Steward Xu thought for a moment and nodded.

It's just that, it's one thing to be afraid, you have to face it.

He is such an old man, what else is terrible, the worst consequence is nothing more than the loss of his legs, which he can accept.

In this case, what is he afraid of, really!

It's true that sometimes people are easy to fall into a dead circle of thinking.

——

Xu Yu originally planned to take his father on his back to take a bus to the capital.

Before going out, Liu Luo offered to help Steward Xu push the wheelchair to the bus stop.

Xu Yu glanced at the package on his back, but did not refuse, and agreed with Liu Luo's kindness.

After a hint of blush flashed on Liu Luo's face, she pushed Steward Xu's wheelchair and walked side by side with Xu Yu on the road, and the two of them exchanged a few words from time to time.

When they arrived at the place, they found that the bus was full when they arrived at their stop.

It's really not long after this thing first appeared, and there are too many curious people.

Some people are also two-poles, and they just ride back and forth in the car when they have nothing to do.

However, because ox carts are more common and not so unusual, many people have also had experience in riding ox carts, so there are relatively few people who ride ox carts.

In order not to delay things, Xu Yu took Steward Xu on his back and got into the ox cart, and by the way, he paid an extra person's money and put the wheelchair that his father often sat in the car.

Liu Luo watched them leave in an ox cart, and then went back to continue her work.

As for Xu Yu and Steward Xu, the two sat on the ox cart, looking at the surrounding scenery, and chatting casually with the people in the carriage.

After arriving at the nearest station to Bai Jinli's house, Xu Yu waited for the ox cart to stop and put the wheelchair down first, and then carried his father off the ox cart and settled him in the wheelchair.

Pushing a wheelchair, he was walking towards Bai Jinli's house when he was stopped.

"Childe, take the liberty of excuse me, where did you come from with this moving chair? Can you tell us? ”

Xu Yu glanced at the somewhat rich middle-aged man in front of him, and replied politely.

"Are you talking about wheelchairs? I'm really sorry, but we just borrowed it from someone else, and I don't know exactly where it came from. ”

The middle-aged man was not discouraged when he heard Xu Yu's refusal, but continued to ask.

I want to talk with more like-minded people about "Peasant Girl Arita Super Power", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chats about life, and looks for confidants~
