Chapter 211

So, why can't you just live a casual life?

"When I was young, I often heard the old man say: Flowers are not red for a hundred days. Now that the Liu family has a big business, you are naturally not afraid. But what if one day, Liu's family falls? At that time, without silver, maybe eating would be a problem, so how could I be free and easy? Lin Baoru looked at him, sighed and whispered, "The world is impermanent, and no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or the accident." ”

Liu Shulai was a little dazed, and he didn't seem to be able to recover at all.

He never thought about what she said. It's like when Lin Cairu asked Lin Caihe what to do if he ran out of money.

Although that question bothered him for a few days later, he still didn't pay attention to it. After all, there is no solution to that problem at all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, even if the Liu family is defeated, it will not reach the point of running out of money.

But now, when he met Lin Baoru's eyes, he couldn't say anything.

Lin Baoru turned sideways and flicked the water in the pool a few times, until her sleeves fell and became wet on the water, and the two of them silently returned to the shore.

When she got to the shore, Lin Baoru didn't bother with what she had just done. And Liu Shulai, who was in a slightly heavy mood, and then Zhang Xunsheng and Chen Rong's gags, gradually put aside the awkwardness.

A few people ate snacks and drank herbal tea, and Hu Tianhai blew a cowhide. Until Chen Rong got bored, he ordered someone to find a few amusing people and jugglers to come over to add some fun.

There are not many jugglers performing on the streets of Liulin Town, but there are some, and now that there is a rich young master who wants to see it by name, naturally there will be people vying to come over. So in the next half an hour, Liu Shulai pulled Lin Baoru to see a lot of acrobatics that she had never seen.

Playing swords, handstands, playing big sparrows, top rods, and even some names she has never heard of, such as fish and dragons, cutting horses, and playing the altar.

Liu Shulai leaned on the back of the chair loosely, peeling a few lotus seeds from time to time and putting them in the tea cup in Lin Baoru's hand. When he saw that she had eaten all three lotus flowers, he wiped his hands and asked Liu Da to put the rest of the fully loaded carriage up.

Lin Baoru didn't touch the lotus seeds anymore, and couldn't help but look at Liu Shulai suspiciously, but saw Liu Shulai directly grabbed a handful of preserved fruits and stuffed them into her hand, "That thing can't eat too much, Chen Laosan ate too much greedily in the past two years, and it was uncomfortable to go back for several hours." ”

Chen Rong, who was watching the acrobatics with relish, lay down inexplicably, and complained to his second brother complainingly: "Brother come here to talk about me again, come back a few times in the future, my sister-in-law is afraid that she will treat me as a fool." ”

Zhang Xunsheng said with a smile: "It seems that you are not stupid on weekdays." ”

"Hey, hey, you're not right......" Chen Rong opened his teeth and danced his claws, and then angrily threw away the lotus canopy beside him.

Zhang Xunsheng took the lotus pod, slapped his mouth twice, and teased: "Don't expect me to peel it for you!" ”

Chen Rong wailed even more when he said this, and finally simply beckoned the two people who were looking at the lotus pond to come over and peel the lotus seeds, and muttered something on his lips.

It's also a shame that it's not cold in the summer, so Rao is coat is a little wet, and several people don't feel cold.

It wasn't until it was late that Liu Shulai pulled Lin Baoru to leave.

In the evening, the wind on the lotus pond brought coolness, which made Lin Baoru instinctively shiver.

After Liu Shulai noticed it, he habitually hugged her shoulder, "I should have brought you back earlier." ”

Lin Baoru chuckled: "If I leave early, I won't be able to feast my eyes?" Speaking of which, I've never seen so much juggling in one sitting, as I am today. ”

Liu Shulai glanced down at the person who was shorter than himself, although he couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, he still felt an inexplicable sour in his heart.

"If you want to see it, I'll find someone to give you eight out of ten performances in the house tomorrow."

"Then forget it, when the time comes, it will be uneasy to make the house ding-and-waning." Lin Baoru sucked in her nose, which was suddenly a little uncomfortable, and took a few steps closer to the carriage.

It wasn't until she got back to the carriage that she didn't feel so cold.

Liu Shulai was afraid that she would suffer from the cold, so he first asked people to drive the carriage to Liu's ready-to-wear shop, and asked people to find clean clothes to change into, and then directly took her to Changshou Hall to find a doctor to prescribe a decoction to ward off the cold.

On this road, Liu Shulai was annoyed that he was not ready, and he didn't bring her to play in the water and didn't prepare a change of clothes. It's good now, let the black heart lotus wilt a little.

In fact, he doesn't blame him, where would he take women out to play in the past? Even if he was with a woman, he wouldn't care if that person would be cold, and those women who were taken by him and Zhang Xunsheng and Chen Rong valued their purses and silver tickets very much, so naturally they wouldn't really complain......

In this way, where would he have thought that picking a few lotus canopies would wet his shoes and socks.

And the result of the two of them playing happily this time was that on the night they went back, Lin Baoru began to have nasal congestion and discomfort. Even if she can't show grievances, she will be suffocated so that the tips of her eyes and nose are red, so that Liu Shulai can take care of her before and after the saddle.

Of course, he didn't really boil and feed her medicine, but his attitude was very courteous. What urged to drink medicine, coaxed with candied fruit, but nothing fell.

It was Lin Baoru who was worried about taking stock of the shop, and he reluctantly helped her check it for a few days. At first, he wanted to fool around, but he couldn't stand that the black heart lotus was too shrewd, and he could see the mistake just by looking at it.

Then, she sniffed and looked at him with a flushed face, which really made him feel uncomfortable.

As a result, many people in Liulin Town know that the gentleman who has been idle in the town for more than 20 years has changed his sex after getting married. It is said that not only did they get into trouble without spending a lot of time drinking, but they even started to do serious things. Hot search

Of course, those words changed their flavor when they came and went, and now some people began to bet that Young Master Liu Jiaxuan would be able to last for a few days. Anyway, if he can get better, no one in the town will believe it.

Lin Baoru's illness first worried Mrs. Liu.

After she asked the ins and outs, she directly twisted her son's ears and slipped people out of the house. As for how to teach it, Lin Baoru didn't know, but she found that since she beat Liu Shulai and came back, the inner drama was very rich, and she even sent her to the toilet.

Lin Baoru: "......"

She wanted to say that she was just suffering from the cold, and she was really not seriously ill......

When those decoctions are finished, Lin Baoru will be almost fine. However, in the past few days, she found that he could handle Liu Shulai's affairs properly. This somewhat surprised her.

But surprise is surprise, Liu Shulai didn't plan to carry the banner.

As soon as I saw that the black heart lotus was jumping around, she directly picked it, and refused to look at the account book and the booklet of the inventory of the goods again.

It's a shame that Lin Baoru didn't really expect to rely on him, so although she didn't go to the shop for a few days, she didn't feel unfamiliar when she took over now.

More than 20 days is enough time for Lin Baoru to find out the situation of the Liu family's shops in the town. In addition, in the past two days, she has been taking inventory of the shop almost all day long and checking the accounts, so when she says that she wants to find someone to change hands, she is not very embarrassed.

Regardless of whether it is Liulin Town or other nearby towns, the people who want to take over the thriving garment shop and timber shop run by the Liu family do not know how much.

Right now, she didn't just make an appointment to meet a merchant who came to Yanjing in the restaurant tomorrow. Speaking of which, this merchant was still the thread drawn by Mrs. Zhou, saying that the person had some relationship with the yamen, and wanted to buy some shops and industries through the yamen. Coincidentally, Zhou Zhutou, who was in the yamen at the time, heard about it, so he mentioned it to Mrs. Zhou.

Later, when Mrs. Zhou was chatting with Mrs. Liu, she knew that Lin Baoru intended to sell a few shops full of moths, so she simply pulled a line in the middle.

Regarding business talks, Lin Baoru is actually not scared. After all, in her previous life, for the sake of business, she didn't go to find customers once or twice.

It's just that right now, in this strange place, it is the first time for her to take the lead alone, and she is still a little worried about messing up.

So, at night, she had to harass Liu Shulai again.

I don't know when it started, whenever something happened, she always liked to mumble a few words with Liu Shulai. Even if she didn't plan to beat him up for a good idea, she could always listen to some crooked reasoning that she found interesting. Talking about the two of them for a while can always make her feel more relaxed.

Liu Shulai, who had just thrown himself on the bed and rolled comfortably, knew that this person was going to toss him again when he heard the smiling voice of the Xianggong.

Thinking of the previous times, he got up very well and consciously began to wipe his hair with black heart lotus.

"Ming'er, I made an appointment to talk about selling a shop, but I don't know if it will be successful."

Liu Shulai yawned and comforted casually: "What's not to do, there are shops and sales, and you're worried that no one will take over?" Catch up with Ming'er, you should talk boldly, it's time to ask for the price, it's time to hold it, first let people know in the attitude that the shop you want to sell is very popular. ”

This is really a bit of a profiteer, and Lin Baoru is happy first.

"If you don't do business, you're really condescending."

Liu Shulai was praised, raised his chin a little flutteringly, and said proudly: "What is this, you will know in the future, I am much more capable than you think." ”

"Yes, yes, like wringing your hair, you're better than me."

"Hey, you don't have a conscience when you say that, who am I doing this for?" Liu Shulai listened to her bury herself, and couldn't help but pout her lips and get unhappy.

Lin Baoru saw that he was pouted, so she simply reached out and pinched the corner of his mouth and pulled it up, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, what Xianggong said is right." ”

Liu Shulai saw that she was still perfunctory, threw the cloth towel directly, reached out to tickle her, and pretended to be powerful while laughing: "Let you laugh at me, if I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know how powerful your master is." ”

Lin Baoru was scratched and shrank back, but even if she hid quickly, she was not as fast as Liu Shulai's movements. In the end, the two who were laughing simply made a mess.

Or Xiaohua, who was keeping vigil outside, knocked on the door when she heard the movement, and asked in a low voice, "Young lady, do you need a slave to serve?" ”

Lin Baoru held back a smile, pushed the people around her away, and said with some embarrassment: "No, no, there were mosquitoes in the house just now, and I fought mosquitoes." ”

Liu Shulai was pushed on his back, and simply lay there lazily and didn't move. It wasn't until I heard her words that I snorted and said, "You are the mosquito, your whole family is a mosquito." ”

Lin Baoru nodded matter-of-factly, "Well, what you said is, after all, marry a chicken and marry a dog." ”

After speaking, she lay down on the inside of the bed and closed her eyes to rest.

Leaving Liu Shulai stunned for a long time, he snorted in annoyance, daring to scold himself just now.
