Chapter 166: A Thought of Friend or Foe

"Wow, Ah Niu, what are you doing here?" Xiao Yue glared at Ah Niu standing in front of her, angry.

Ah Niu saw that Xiao Yue was sitting peacefully next to the desk, so he was relieved, rubbed his hands, and said with a smile: "Uh... It's okay, I thought Childe was killed by bad guys. ”

"Bad guys?" Xiao Yue looked at Ah Niu with a wooden face, and Butler Huang who was staring dryly, and said angrily and funny, "Where are the bad guys?"

Ah Niu pointed to the door of the study and said, "Childe, come and see." ”

Xiao Yue and Steward Huang followed Ah Niu out of the study, and saw that there was a white palm print on the front of the door, Xiao Yue reached out after seeing it, wanting to touch what the white thing was, but was stopped by Ah Niu, "Childe, don't touch it yet." ”

Ah Niu didn't know where to take out a wooden stick, he tentatively touched the palm print with the stick, found that there was nothing unusual, and then said to Xiao Yue: "Does Childe have silverware on him?"

Satsuki has always disliked wearing gold and silver, and she shook her head.

Ah Niu looked at Steward Huang again, and Steward Huang pulled out a silver hairpin from his head and handed it to Ah Niu, "I only have this one that is silver." ”

Ah Niu took the silver hairpin, touched the palm print with it, and found that there was no vision, so he returned the hairpin to Steward Huang, "It seems that this white thing is not poisonous." ”

Xiao Yue looked at Ah Niu's actions, and became more and more curious, this person looked stupid, but he actually knew to be cautious, and he knew that silver could be used to test poison.

However, she didn't have time to think about this question now, but she saw the clue at a glance, "Don't try it, this white thing should be flour." ”

"Flour?" Ah Niu and Steward Huang said in unison.

Xiao Yue nodded, "Ah Niu, do you remember that I asked you to go to the old study in the morning to sprinkle flour?"

Ah Niu suddenly realized, "This person is... ?”

"Yes, he's here to warn me. Xiaoyue is not afraid now, this person obviously has the ability to hurt herself, but she hides it, either she is not interested in her, or she doesn't want to be her enemy, she smiled and said: "However, everyone who comes is a guest, as long as he doesn't come to disturb me, I'll go with him." ”

Ah Niu said inexplicably: "Childe, do I still need to go to the old study to have a look?"

"No, but the backyard will have to be locked every night in the future. Satsuki thought about the man who said that one day he would come back to find her, so she didn't want to meet him at night, especially when she was sleeping.

Ah Niu said a little angrily: "This person doesn't take his son too seriously, and I will sleep at the backyard door every day in the future, and I will see how he is rampant and domineering in this mansion." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Satsuki to speak, he left the study angrily.

Xiao Yue looked at Steward Huang and said helplessly: "This person is really good-tempered, no matter, let's get down to business first." ”

Steward Huang nodded, "It's all my business, Childe doesn't have to worry about it, I'll teach him well when I'm free, just tell Childe if he has anything." ”

"That's the case, someone sent a famous post today, that person is a small guy in the house of Chen Baiyu, the head of the household, Chen Shangshu wants to make an appointment with me, you go to Chen's house early tomorrow morning to reply, saying that I have been in Jiang Shangyue Restaurant tomorrow afternoon, if he is free, you can go to Jiang Shangyue Restaurant to talk. ”

"Got it, is there anything else you have to say?"

"Not for the time being. Xiaoyue suddenly remembered that there was still a month left before the Chinese New Year, "If you don't go home during the Spring Festival, don't your family have any opinions?"

Steward Huang smiled and said, "Childe's monthly money is so high, it's okay if you don't go home." ”

Xiao Yue shook her head, "Actually, I don't have that much to do here, you should go back and see your family after the Spring Festival." ”

Steward Huang's face turned red, and he suddenly became spitting, "Childe, I have something to ask for, I don't know if to say it." ”

Xiaoyue knew that this Huang Xing was honest, he had always been diligent and hardworking, but she didn't expect him to make demands for herself, but she was also a cheerful person, and said with a smile: "As long as I can do it, it shouldn't be a problem." ”

Steward Huang hummed, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence, "I have a mother-in-law and a pair of children at home, I don't want to go back by myself, can I take them here, and I will settle down in Yingjun City in the future, and I won't go back to my hometown." ”

Xiao Yue immediately understood what he meant, "What can your daughter-in-law do? How old are your children's words? Are you still studying?"

Steward Huang listened to her questioning like this, and his heart was relieved, he had put forward his ideas to his uncle, the old Huang housekeeper of Anfu, but the old Huang housekeeper said that his master was kind-hearted, as long as he did things well, he should help himself.

"My mother-in-law is a countryman, five big and three coarse, it is okay to do rough work, my son is just fourteen years old, only recognize a few words, I want to let him learn a craft, I want him to follow the Xu account room to learn to do accounts, I don't know if the Xu account room is collected, my daughter is still young, just five years old. ”

"Yes, I see. Xiaoyue thinks it's okay to let them come, but she doesn't like that there are too many people in the house, "I'll find a way to help your family find something to do, but they can't live in the house, you can rent a house outside by yourself." ”

"Childe, this is really a thousand thanks. Steward Huang kept bowing to Xiaoyue and thanking her.

"It's all a trivial matter, you go back to the front hall first, if there is something, I'll call you again." Xiao Yue calculated that the inn needed a rough mother-in-law, and Xu Guanfang was just short of apprentices, so he could see what his son's qualifications were, and then make a decision.

"En. Steward Huang left the study with a smile on his face.

On the second day, Xiao Yue took Yun Yan to Fengyi Inn early in the morning, and when she walked to the door of the inn, she found that the door was now fully open, and Hua Niang was standing behind the counter, watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street.

Xiao Yue looked at her from a distance and found that maybe it was because people were in good spirits on happy occasions, and Hua Niang looked a lot younger.

"Hua Niang, is business good?" said to Xiao Yue with a smile.

When it comes to business, Hua Niang's words don't stop, "Hey, Childe, why did you say you came, if I hadn't been able to leave alone, I would have gone to see you a long time ago." ”

Xiao Yue entered the inn, found a single stool in front of the counter and sat down, rubbed the stove with both hands, and said with a smile: "It's not like I haven't seen you for a few days, is there anything in a hurry?"

Hua Niang hurriedly brought Xiao Yue a cup of hot tea, visited the coffee table in front of her, and poured Yun Yan another cup of tea, but while she was doing it, her mouth was not idle.

"Childe paid a lot of money, and I can't let Childe suffer. She looked around before she spoke, and it seemed that she had remembered what Satsuki said about not being able to claim that the owner of the inn had changed hands.

"The inn business has been tepid, and I'm in a hurry. She pointed to the blisters at the corners of her mouth, "Childe, you see, I'm in a hurry." ”

Xiao Yue laughed when she heard this, "Hua Niang, you are really an anxious person! This business is not good, and it is useless to be anxious." ”

Hua Niang lowered her head and said embarrassedly: "Childe is really not in a hurry when he is rich, we poor people are in a hurry... ”
