Xiao Man was a little surprised, "Xiao Qi, I didn't expect to see you for a few days, you know so much about the time when this pheasant hatches eggs, it seems that you are quite serious during this time." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Qi smiled and scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed, "Madam, I listened to what my master said, if he hadn't told us these things, how would I know this." ”

These days, Lu Li took them to hunt, to the mountains to find wild fruits, to clean up the garden, fences, etc., and to do things they had never heard of.

It is precisely because of these times of getting along with each other that these secret guards and Lu Li have become more and more familiar, and they feel more and more that they are not only living in the dark, but also feel that they are flesh and blood, and they are vivid, of course, they are most grateful to Lu Li, and they don't just treat them as a few guards.

"By the way, ma'am, what are you here for today? It's not getting early, and I guess the master won't be back until after dark! If you are in a hurry to return to the city, you may as well tell me anything, and I will tell my master. Xiao Qi suddenly remembered what was going on.

Ran Xiaoman just smiled slightly. "It's okay, from today onwards, I won't be living in the County Lord's Mansion."

"Huh?" Xiao Qi exclaimed, full of surprise: "You don't live in the County Lord's Mansion, where do you live?" Madam, it can't be that something is going on in the city, right? ”

Xiao Man just laughed and didn't respond, but Jade on the side pouted and pretended to be angry: "Keep saying that something is going on, what are your intentions, are you looking forward to something happening to your wife?" ”

Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and then twisted his eyebrows in embarrassment, and defended himself a little anxiously: "I... Of course I didn't mean that! But the sun is about to set, and if Madame doesn't go back by car, and when it gets dark, it will be difficult to hurry! ”

"Why does Madame have to go back, can't she just live here?" Jade retorted with reason.

"Live... Live here? Xiao Qi was even more confused.

Seeing this, Xiao Man explained softly: "From today on, I will start preparing for growing vegetables in the suburban greenhouse, the suburban land is not far from here, only a village away, and I will live here in the future." How, isn't it welcome? ”

Xiao Qi, who had only reacted for a long time, touched his head with a smile, and said with a smile: "Welcome!" Of course welcome! ”

After the welcome, Xiao Qi scratched his head again, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Madam, there are only five rooms here, if you live here, where do Pearl and Jade sisters live?" You can't always talk to... Huddle with us, right? ”

When he said the last sentence, Xiao Qi's face turned red inexplicably, and he lowered his head slightly, obviously extremely embarrassed.

However, after hearing this, Jade directly stepped forward and patted Xiao Qi's head, and shouted, "What do you want?" How could Pearl and I be huddled together with you, don't think about all that mess! ”

"I... I just..."Xiao Qi touched his head a little aggrieved, and whispered to justify: "Just ask, besides, I care about you, otherwise where do you two girls live?" It's so cold outside and there are no other houses around......"

Although Xiao Qi's initial idea was a bit excessive, what he just said was not unreasonable, after all, there was indeed no place around where the two of them could stay.

But if you are as smart as Xiaoman, why don't you prepare in advance?

"The two of them will go back to the greenhouse later, and there is also a makeshift house over there, and they live there, so it's easy to check the greenhouse." Xiaoman patiently explained.

Xiao Qi nodded when he heard this, secretly raised his eyes to look at the jade, and after making sure that the other party was no longer staring at him, he touched his nose weakly and straightened up.

Seeing that it was indeed not early, Xiao Man asked Pearl and Jade to move their own things off the carriage, and then sent the two back to the greenhouse, while she went to the kitchen of this small house, let Xiao Qi light the fire, and made a meal alone.

Coincidentally, as soon as the meal for the two was ready, there was also the sound of Lu Li and others talking outside. Xiao Man hurriedly wiped his hands and trotted out to greet him.

At that time, it was already completely dark, and it was already at the outermost edge of the village, and the surrounding area was deserted, so it was getting darker and darker in this neighborhood, Xiao Man was standing at the door, and Lu Li, who was already preparing to enter the door, didn't even notice it.

Until Xiaoman shouted: "Lu Li!" ”

Lu Li, who was talking and laughing with the secret guard in the yard and preparing to put down the things he hunted today, straightened up, and looked at Xiaoman in the voice, he was stunned at first, and when he saw the outline of Xiaoman on the door by the light of the kitchen, he was sure that it was indeed Xiaoman calling him.

He ran forward in three steps and two steps, hugging Xiao Man, but soon relieved, he was pleasantly surprised, and his voice trembled slightly when he spoke: "Why are you here?" If you don't go back after dark, are you going to stay here today? ”

"yes, what, can't you?" Xiao Man wrapped his arms around the other party's waist, tilted his head slightly and looked at the other party's eyes, with a little cunning, the corners of his mouth hooked into a smile, and asked coquettishly.

Lu Li chuckled, full of pampering: "Yes, of course." ”

Xiao Man smiled proudly, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "How good it is to have me, dinner is ready, you can sit down and eat directly when you get home after a hard day." With me here, you'll have to save a lot of time and energy, right? ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Lu Li's vigorous nodding was indeed pampering and joy from the heart.

He took the woman's shoulder, hugged the other party tightly in his arms, put his chin against the top of the other party's head, and sighed: "It's good to have you, if only you could be here in the future." ”

The other party didn't know the reason, and thought that Xiao Man was only here for one day, so he was both moved and joyed, but also with a bit of longing and expectation, which couldn't help but make Xiao Man's heart more and more warm.

She was moved in her heart, and couldn't help but tell the reason why she came here, and when she learned that Xiao Manhui had been living here, Lu Li let go in disbelief, leaned over and asked, "Really?" ”

"What did I lie to you about this." Xiao Man smiled lightly.

Lu Li became more and more happy, and couldn't help hugging each other tightly, and said with some emotion: "I really didn't expect that we could meet under such circumstances." ”

Xiao Man was about to talk, but as soon as Lu Li's words fell, he remembered a low dry cough, Lu Li couldn't help but smile, turned his face and ordered, "What should you do, don't get all together." ”

As he spoke, he raised his chin at Xiao Qi, who ran out of the kitchen to see the excitement, "You take them to eat, and rest quickly after eating, there are still a lot of things waiting for you tomorrow." ”

"Yes!" A group of people responded, but there were also a hundred twists and turns in this short word, with countless ridicule and envy.

After taking away the group of secret guards, Lu Li pulled the people into the room, poured a cup of hot tea for the other party, and asked, "You want to come here to take care of the greenhouse, what about Wangshu in the house?" Who will take care of it? ”

Xiaoman had already decided not to live in the mansion anymore, so he naturally took this issue into account, so he explained in a hurry: "Youhe and other embroidery girls want to teach in the mansion, and I have to go back from time to time, so Wangshu will stay in the mansion first, and He Miao will accompany him, he should be fine." ”

Both of them love to read, He Miao is quiet and quiet, Wangshu is young but old, and he doesn't like lively places, although I don't know how the two got acquainted, but seeing that the two can talk, Xiao Manbian did not stop him, but entrusted He Miao to take care of Wangshu.

Since King Rong was disposed of, the capital city of Bei'an is still peaceful, plus the night pearl that the king rewarded not long ago, it is enough for the government and the opposition and ordinary people to know the weight of Xiaoman in the hearts of the canglan and the king, and now at this time, no one dares to go to the county lord's mansion to make waves.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Xiaoman can rest assured that Wangshu will continue to live in Fuzhong.

After listening to Xiaoman's explanation, Lu Li nodded, "It's okay like this, Wangshu has a calm temperament, and there shouldn't be an accident." By the way, you just said that Fuzhong is going to teach recently, what's the matter, have you recruited the right students? ”

As early as after the two arrived in Canglan, Xiao Man had already discussed this matter with Lu Li, but until Lu Li left the county lord's mansion, he had not been able to recruit suitable students, and now that he heard that he was about to start teaching, he was inevitably curious about what kind of means were used to recruit him.

Speaking of this matter, Xiao Man couldn't help but smile and said: "This matter is thanks to Master Zhang Shangqi Zhang, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid I'm still anxious about finding students." ”

"Oh?" Lu Lihuan asked with interest: "What, is Lord Zhang also interested in these things?" ”

In his impression, Zhang Shangqi should be a person who spends all day in the study and the court, how could he guide Xiaoman in this regard?

Xiao Man laughed a few times when he heard this, "I won't tell you anything, after Lord Zhang said this suggestion, I had the same idea as you, but later I learned that we were looking at Lord Zhang too one-sidedly." ”

After speaking, Xiaoman told Zhang Shangqi the advice he gave him, and by the way, he also told the matter between Zhang Shangqi and Mrs. Zhang.

After listening, Lu Li pursed his lips and smiled, "So that's the case, but I think that in the city of Bei'an, there are still many ladies like Mrs. Zhang, if you are interested, I think you can open another class to teach these ladies, what do you think?" ”

After the other party said this, Xiao Man's mind flashed, and then he said: "At that time, I will teach in person, and I can also charge tuition appropriately." I thought, of course, these ladies are not here to make money, maybe just to pass the time, or just like Mrs. Zhang because they like it, or maybe they just want to come out to breathe, anyway, no matter what they are for, they can come here! ”

"And how much do you want to charge?" Lu Li's eyes looked at each other without blinking, full of doting.
