Chapter 55: The Talented Female Housekeeper's Mother
"Husband, you hate it." Diao Xiu'er raised her pink fist and wanted to smash him.
Yuan Xi held her little fist, kissed it, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, how is the current home, and what will be the future home, it has always been the two of you who are in charge, and it will not change, this is my promise to the two of you." ”
Cai Yan looked at a few maids who were still tidying up the house in the distance, and thought: "I hope everyone can get along in harmony, it's messy enough, I hope we can have a warm home." ”
"Yes." Yuan Xi gently patted the back of her hand.
Although Diao Xiu'er said so, she still liked to play with the little princess very much, seeing the little princess looking towards this side from time to time, her eyes rolled, she got down from Yuan Xi, kissed him on the face, and said with a smile: "Husband, I'm going to play with Sister Yan'er." ”
"Go ahead." Diao Xiu'er is still young after all, she is still a playful age, and she has more fun to play with the little princess and Fu Shou, Yuan Xi is naturally happy to see such a thing.
Looking at Diao Xiu'er's back bouncing and running, Yuan Xi pulled Cai Yan into his arms and asked, "Has my father-in-law arrived safely?" ”
Cai Yan was happy when he saw Yuan Xi coming back, but he forgot about his father's affairs for a while, and when he saw him mention it, he hurriedly replied: "Not long after you left, you have already arrived, and it is arranged not far away, but husband, my father is very annoyed with you." ”
Yuan Xi sighed lightly: "What's there to be annoyed about, Luoyang has been burned, and most of the people who advise have been killed, what kind of person do you say your father-in-law is?" Will Dong Zhuoke kill him? ”
Cai Yan's eyes were slightly dull, and it took a long time before he said: "I have also heard about Luoyang, but I didn't expect that it would really be gone, husband, thank you." ”
Yuan Xi lowered his head and kissed her crystal lips, and said softly: "Thank you, you and I are husband and wife, your father is my father, shouldn't I help my father?" ”
Cai Yan's face was slightly red, and he glanced at him lightly.
"Do you want to see him?" Yuan Xi thought about this old man, although he didn't treat him very well, but he couldn't hide all the time, he still had to see what he should see.
"Not for now." Cai Yanliu frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "His mood has only been a little better recently, if you go, I will definitely scold you again, or wait for a while." ”
Yuan Xi said: "My father at this time, it is estimated that he has already arrived in the Kanto region, Jizhou will be obtained by him sooner or later, and the surrounding states will definitely not be a problem, when the real troubled times are coming, if my father sends me to a certain place to take charge of affairs, I will let him be in charge of local civil affairs, what do you think?" ”
Cai Yan smiled and said: "What are you thinking, there is no thing about the eight characters, what you said is like the truth, if you can really be in charge of a state, even if my father is not willing to follow you, I promise to persuade him to go." ”
Yuan Xi raised his palm and said with a smile: "A word is a certainty!" ”
Cai Yancai was not afraid of him, and closed his small palms: "A word is a certainty!" ”
The two chatted for a while, and Cai Yan went to get busy, after all, she had to ask about all the big and small things in the house, and the most important thing was that the eighteen cars of treasures before made her a little calm.
Yuan Xi saw her intentions, so he simply let her go.
Just now, those treasures were just transported in and placed casually, but now that I think about it, they are all placed in the second courtyard, which is somewhat inappropriate, and I think Cai Yan will also go with him.
She can not care, but she can't care.
This little housekeeper, Yuan Xi felt a faint warmth in his heart, so that a talented woman who is famous for her talent and learning can be a housekeeper for herself, and she is happy to think about it.
After a while, walking out of the backyard with small steps, Yuan Xi went out to the front, and when he walked to the second courtyard, he saw Cai Yan instructing the maids to get things.
Yuan Xi said from afar: "If you can't get it, you can go to the front yard and find someone to carry it." ”
"Got it." Cai Yan replied to him from afar, without raising his head, as if he didn't mean this at all.
Yuan Xi could only follow her.
The easternmost corner of the first courtyard is a martial arts arena that is not too big, but not small, which Yuan Xi deliberately left, and now Pan Feng, Xu Chu, Yuan Le, Yuan Xiang, Yuan An, Yuan He, and Xu Chu's hometown children and daughters, and some family members are all around there, talking, looking like they want to compete.
If Yuan Xi usually went to see it, but now he still has something to do, so he can only miss it, and come back next time to see Pan Feng's martial arts.
Walking out of the courtyard gate, Yuan Xi walked straight ahead.
Here, he still bought two houses privately, a little smaller than his own, and walked about a hundred meters away, Yuan Xi turned a corner and looked up at the front of a house.
There were two bored family members standing in front of the door, and he thought that this should be Cai Yong's mansion.
After looking at it for a while, he turned his head, passed by an alley, and walked to another house, and sure enough, he saw no figure in front of the door.
Looks like this is it.
With a smile on his face, Yuan Xi stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door.
"Knock, knock."
After a while, a very rude-looking woman opened the door, and was about to ask out loud, but the next moment she swallowed her voice back, and said with a smile: "When did the second son come back, Yu Niang is nagging you these days, come in quickly, I'll take you to see Yu Niang." ”
Yuan Xi walked in casually and said with a smile: "I just came back today, I didn't finish dealing with the affairs in the house, I rushed over, you guys are quite used to living here, right?" ”
"Hehe, get used to it, get used to it, it's just that some sisters are used to teasing Hongchen, why are they quiet for a while, but they are not happy, and they are shouting to make money."
Yuan Xi frowned and said, "Mo is short of money?" ”
The woman looked left and right, turned around and whispered, "Yu Niang strictly forbids us to nag you, but after all, we had the means to make a living before, and we didn't miss the money." But now it's different, dozens of sisters have dozens of mouths, they have to eat and drink every day, rouge and gouache, this is a lot of expenses, this is not a lot of days, we brought back from Luoyang The money used up a small half, and then don't find some livelihood to live, I'm afraid that I will really have to drink the northwest wind then. ”
The woman paused, and then said: "The second son is not me nagging, I just feel sorry for Yu Niang to worry about us all day long, but she is a weak woman, and she has just come to Hebei, thinking about the means of making a living, how difficult it is." Therefore, I pondered, if the second son has some means, he can help think about it, and it is okay not to do some other things without making flesh and skin, in short, it is good not to let the sisters be empty-handed. ”
