Xiaoyue has always believed that kindness is rewarded, and she did two good deeds today, except for getting two pieces of waste paper, the other two people didn't even thank you in person.

Of course, she didn't do good deeds just because she had a good reward, but she just made her conscience better, but the practice of the master and apprentice made her feel too unhappy.

"Forget it, let's go. Go back to bed and talk about it when it's dawn. Satsuki closed the door and turned around and lay back on the bed. Although she was a little angry just now, she had a big heart, and she fell asleep after a while.

By the time Xu Chengchang came to wake her up again, the sky was already slightly white.

The messenger of the yamen put breakfast at the gate of the courtyard, and Xu Chengchang told her to get up and eat while it was hot.

Satsuki was eating breakfast while planning what things she would do today.

Her original plan was to find Lord Wang to understand the situation of water control, but yesterday she learned that Lord Wang was not easy to find, so she could only ask the locals first to see if there were any people who were familiar with the local hydrology and geography, but it was estimated that Xu Chengchang would have to help with this matter.

After breakfast, Xiaoyue called Xu Chengchang to the study and wanted to discuss it with him.

When Xiao Yue walked into the study, she noticed that something was wrong, she found that there was an extra note on the desk, and two books.

She picked up the note and saw that it was a message from Mr. Cao, which read:

"Xiaoyue, thank you for your help, thank you very much. However, my master and apprentice still have something to hurry urgently, and I have not personally resigned and thanked him, I am very sorry, and I am still sorry. If he meets again one day, he will make amends himself. In addition, there is another matter, I have two books, please help me transfer them to Lord Wang Hanbing as soon as possible. Good luck. Cao Hongyan's message. ”

It turned out that this old Mr. Cao was called Cao Hongyan, and Lord Wang was called Wang Hanbing.

After reading the note, Xiaoyue felt that it was still necessary to help with this favor, and it was just a matter of using this matter to get close, that strange-tempered Lord Wang was really difficult to deal with. Then I hastily flipped through the two books left by Mr. Cao, and found that some passages in the books were marked, and when I looked closely, they were actually remarks about water control. She looked at these passages carefully, and there was a comment from Mr. Cao Lao, as if it was a suggestion to build a reservoir upstream, which would be used to store water during the rising season, and prevent the river from flooding downstream.

Xu Chengchang was silent on the side, quietly waiting for Xiaoyue's instructions.

Xiaoyue put away the note, closed the book, looked at Xu Chengchang on the side, and then said to him: "Chengchang, I've always wanted to talk to you, but I don't have time." ”

Xu Chengchang immediately straightened his waist, stood upright, and asked very seriously: "If the son has anything to say, just say it." ”

"Don't be so nervous, let's talk casually, you sit down and talk. ”

"Childe, I am your subordinate, and I have to obey the rules. ”

Satsuki smiled and said, "That's my rule." ”

Xu Chengchang looked surprised.

Xiao Yue explained: "Chengchang, if you follow me to do things, you have to follow my rules. ”

Xu Chengchang said with a serious expression: "Childe, what you say is what you say, but please tell Childe the rules first, and I will definitely do it." ”

Xiao Yue waved her hand and said, "You sit down first and relax." ”

Xu Chengchang found a stool, sat down and looked at Xiaoyue and said, "Childe, please speak." ”

Xiao Yue looked at him appreciatively and said, "Chengchang, I want you to understand that following me to do things, we are friends first and employment relations second. I don't know what you think of me as a person, but I want to know if you think I'm worthy of being your friend?"

Xu Chengchang was slightly surprised, after all, the concept of hierarchy has been deeply rooted in the world of people's hearts, and people like Xiaoyue are really rare, he pondered for a while and said: " Childe, when I was helpless, you hired me without saying a word, and when Xiao Dongzi was desperate, you also took out money to help him, and yesterday when the strange master and apprentice needed your help, you did not hesitate to provide them with accommodation, and did not take a penny, although I had a relationship with Childe before, but these two days of getting along, I feel that Childe is a kind-hearted person, and it is my luck to be able to help you do things. ”

Xiao Yue couldn't listen to other people's praise, and her face was slightly red, "It's so good what you said there, if you get along for a long time, you may find that I have a lot of problems." ”

Xu Chengchang looked at Xiaoyue and said seriously: "Childe's problem is also there. ”

Xiao Yue was happy: "Is it? What's wrong with it, hurry up, come with me, don't talk to it, be happy." ”

Xu Chengchang also smiled: "I said, Gongzi won't blame, right?"

Xiaoyue laughed: "I may be angry when you say it, but I won't blame it, if what you say is right, I will reward you." ”

Xu Chengchang thought for a while and said, "I don't want a reward, and I don't want my son to be angry." ”

Xiao Yue pretended to be angry and said: "I also have a rule that people who don't like me have something to hide from me, if I know that you cheated on me, I will fire you immediately." ”

Xu Chengchang said anxiously: "I don't want to hide my son, I said that my son can promise me not to be angry." ”

Xiao Yue couldn't hold it back, and laughed again: "You really don't have a sense of humor, I'm joking with you, I remember you don't like to laugh, so more and more serious." ”

Seeing her like this, Xu Chengchang also relaxed a lot: "The problem of the son is that he is too innocent and has no scheming in the city. ”

Xiao Yue nodded, and said with satisfaction: "Well, that's a good point! Although the female is loyal to her ears, I like it." ”

Xu Chengchang also smiled, thinking that Childe looked about the same age as me and acted calmly, but sometimes he was a little childish.

"Childe, I will try to follow your rules in the future. ”

Xiao Yue nodded and said, "I know it's not easy for you to change it for a while, so let's do it, in front of outsiders, you can follow your way, but when there are no outsiders, follow my rules." ”

Xu Chengchang was even more relieved when he heard this, it seems that Gongzi is not a rigid person, "I know." ”

"What did you do before?"

Xu Chengchang sorted out his thoughts and said: "My father is a businessman, and when I was a child, I followed him to study business and settle accounts. But when my parents were killed visiting friends, I stayed in the town to take care of my grandmother, sometimes helping the town's merchants to make accounts and earn some money to make a living. Later, there were fewer and fewer people in the town doing business, and in recent years, they have lived on the money saved by their father's previous business. ”

When Xiao Yue heard this, she was overjoyed, thinking that there was still a lack of an account room around her, and this Xu Chengchang had a little foundation to cultivate, so she said: "Since you can settle accounts, let you try it in the future." ”

Xu Chengchang said happily: "I will use everything I have learned to repay my son, and I should do my best to complete my son's trust in the future." ”

Xiao Yue waved her hand and said, "Don't say that, you will rely on this to eat in the future, not me." However, with your current ability, it is estimated that it is not enough, and I will teach you in the future. ”

Xu Chengchang looked at Xiaoyue with admiration, but he didn't expect that Gongzi even knew about the accounting room, so he nodded: "Please ask Gongzi for more advice in the future." ”

Xiaoyue is not modest, although she did not take the CPA exam back then, she still knows the general principles of accounting. She was still worried about the water control, so she said: "The work of this account office does not need you for the time being, and when I have time to teach you some of the methods I need, there is still an urgent matter for you to do." ”

Xu Chengchang leaned forward and hurriedly asked, "Childe, please speak." ”

Satsuki looked at the dark sky outside, thinking to herself that it was going to rain again.

"You go to the mountain today to find out if there is anyone on the mountain who is familiar with the local hydrology and geography, and let me know when you find it. ”

Xu Chengchang listened and nodded, "I'll go right away." ”

Xiao Yue instructed: "Don't worry, look slowly, you must find the most powerful person." ”

"Okay. Xu Chengchang stood up and prepared to go out.

Suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside, Satsuki stood up and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate, the courtyard door was not closed, and there was a person standing by the door.

Xiao Yue sighed in her heart, why did this person come again.
