Views:

After arguing with the little girl for a while, Li Zexuan lost sleep, so he picked up Lan'er and left the room.

With Xiao He and Xiao Xi waiting on them, the brother and sister finished washing and went to the front yard together to prepare for breakfast, but they happened to meet San Bao.

"Hey, Sambo? Are you feeling well?"

"Yes, young master, the little one's body is strong. He was almost healed last night!"

Sanbao quickly came over and scratched his head, smiling innocently.

"Hey, let's see what you can do! You can go to Butler Wang later to receive the reward of three guans! Thank you for your hard work yesterday!"

Li Zexuan took a closer look and found that Sanbao was indeed fine, so he waved his hand and led Lan'er to the front hall.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

Sanbao was extremely surprised when he heard this and thanked him profusely from behind. When the other servants nearby saw this, they all cast envious glances at Sanbao. The reward they received was worth several months of their wages!

… … … …

lobby.

The family of four enjoyed breakfast happily.

Mrs. Li hasn't seen her son for three days. Yesterday's dinner and today's breakfast were very sumptuous, and they were all Li Zexuan's favorite foods.

Li Zexuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if he eats like this every day, he will probably become a big fat man in a short time. By then, Chang'an City will lose another beautiful man~~Tsk tsk!

"Xuan'er, come here, drink some mushroom pheasant soup. This pheasant was delivered by my father-in-law yesterday!"

Mrs. Li scooped soup for her son with a smile. The tragic Li Jingmo next to him was naturally left out. Not only that, because Mrs. Li stood up to scoop soup in front of him, Father Li couldn't even pick up the food and could only remain silent. Picking up the rice in the bowl.

"Well~, okay, okay, mom, you shouldn't eat too much for breakfast!"

Li Zexuan said quickly.

"Who said you shouldn't eat too much for breakfast? That's totally unreasonable!"

Mrs. Li rolled her eyes at her son, but even though she said so, she still put down the spoon and sat back down.

"Haha, by the way, mother, you just said that Han Lizheng sent someone to send this pheasant, but why didn't he come in person?"

Li Zexuan asked while eating.

"Haha~! Isn't Han Lizheng doing it just for you?"

Father Li, who was eating silently on the side, spoke up at this moment: "My father heard that Han Li is busy preparing for your Han girl's wedding these days, and at the same time he often goes to the nearby Plum Village to check the status of the chicken farm there. How could I have time to come over and deliver a pheasant to your boy? This pheasant was bought by the dealer in Hanjiazhuang. After it was given to Han Lizheng, he was reluctant to eat it, so he asked someone to deliver it to him!"

"Oh I got it!"

"What have you been tinkering with in the workshop recently?"

Li Jingmo asked after taking a bite of food.

In the past, the Li family had always been very particular about eating and sleeping without saying a word. Since Li Zexuan came back, the atmosphere of the entire Li family has been distorted.

"Hehe, it's nothing. The kid is just bored and messing around with small things!"

Li Zexuan explained casually.

"Brother, what's so fun? Lan'er wants to play too!"

"Well, okay, I'll teach you how to play later!"

… … … …

After breakfast, Li Zexuan did not forget that there was still business to do today. He called Sanbao, Xiaohe, Xiaoxi, and Laner, then took out a telegraph machine and several spare batteries, and said to them: "You guys put the Send these things to the Han family. I have put the instructions for using the telegraph machine and the code book inside. Xiao Xi, you know a lot about the telegraph machine. If Yu Xi doesn’t know how to use it, you can teach her!"

"Okay, Master!"

"Lan'er, don't run around, do you understand?"

"Hehe, I know! Brother is so verbose!"

Li Zexuan was too lazy to pay attention to her. He looked at Sanbao and said, "Sanbao, please ask some nursing staff to go with you in a while to protect the safety of the young lady!"

Li Zexuan had no intention of letting Lan'er go with him, but he couldn't help the little girl's persistence, so now he could only arrange a few more people to take care of her.

"Well, don't worry, young master, I will definitely not let anything happen to Miss Lan'er!"

Sanbao patted his chest and assured that his sincerity for Li Zexuan was unquestionable, and he was almost the number one "dog legger" under Li Zexuan.

"Well, go quickly! Xiao Xi, remember to send me a telegram when you arrive!"

"Yes, Master!"

… … … …

The group of people drove the carriage out of Yonglefang and headed straight to the west gate of Chang'an City.

Li Zexuan estimated that Xiaoxi and the others would not be able to reach Han's house within an hour (after all, the road from Chang'an to Hanjiazhuang was not a wide and flat official road, and it was not easy to walk), so he went back to his room to catch up on his sleep. For three days, he had been working overtime and had very little rest time. He originally planned to sleep all morning today, but Lan'er woke him up.

Anyway, the telegraph machine is in his room, and he can hear the message from Han Yuxi immediately.

Li Zexuan slipped back to the west courtyard, closed the doors and windows, and began to fall asleep.

After eating and sleeping, if Father Li was at home now and found out about this, he might have to teach Li Zexuan a lesson for not doing his job properly and being useless.

Li Zexuan lay on the bed and fell asleep after a while. Anyone who comes here will be impressed by the speed at which he falls asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Zexuan heard an intermittent "didi-didi" sound. He woke up suddenly and knew that it was Xiaoxi who had arrived at Hanjiazhuang.

Li Zexuan took three steps at a time and came to the long table where the telegraph machine was placed. He began to record the telegram. It may be that the person who sent the telegram was not very skilled in the operation, so it took nearly a quarter of an hour to write a very short message. The time was spent.

Thanks to Han Yuxi's slow delivery, Li Zexuan had never been exposed to telegrams in his previous life, so this was his first time with telegrams! He was also very slow in recording the telegrams. After memorizing the telegrams, Li Zexuan opened the code book and began to translate the telegrams.

He was relatively fast at this, because he had written all the telegrams. It cannot be said that he had memorized them all. At least he was very familiar with them. After a while, Li Zexuan translated the contents of the telegram.

"Master, I am Xiao Xi. We have a safe journey. We have arrived at the young lady's house now. The young lady is learning how to use the telegraph machine!"

With just thirty words, there were nearly seven hundred telegraph codes. Li Zexuan sighed in his heart: This telegraph machine is still not as convenient as a mobile phone!

"Hey, this is really a long way to go to Shu. We already have a telegraph machine, so why do we need a bicycle?"

Li Zexuan laughed and shook his head. He thought for a while, stepped forward and sent a telegram with reference to the code book: "Well, take good care of Lan'er and don't let her run around. Also, tell Yu Xi not to worry and learn slowly. , Master, I can afford to wait!"
