"Master, tell me, what does King Yan mean?"
Mrs. Xu ate another cold lychee and looked at Mr. Xu, "Is it possible that he really has a crush on our Fu Bao?"
"That doesn't make sense!"
"What kind of family do we belong to, and what kind of family does King Yan belong to? It's wrong to not be a good family!"
Mrs. Xu still felt that this matter was a bit unreliable.
Even though Mr. Xu has a relationship with the Xu Mansion in the capital, his family has no relationship with that family at all.
"Why do you think so much?"
Mr. Xu smiled slightly and said, "No matter what he means, I have everything!"
"By the way, you send these two baskets of lychees to the old man's family and the third child's family. As for the basket of lychees from the second child's family, they are both not at home, so let's put them in our house first!"
"become!"
Mrs. Xu nodded, got up and carried the two small baskets of lychees out, sending them to Mr. Xu and Mr. Xu's houses respectively.
As for the lychees in the hands of Zhou and Wang, how they plan to distribute them is not what Mrs. Xu and Mr. Xu need to worry about.
…
When Boss Xu returned home, he rushed to the hall immediately and reported Zuoqiu's arrangements for Li Tuo to his father. He also told his father about the time he saw Li Tuo being beaten on the road.
Of course, Boss Xu hid the fact that he stepped forward and kicked him several times.
"That's it!"
Mr. Xu nodded and did not comment too much on Zuoqiu's arrangement. After all, Zuoqiu is the magistrate of Anshun County. Although he is Zuoqiu's sworn brother, he cannot interfere in Zuoqiu's actions.
"Dad, I think this Li Xiucai is afraid of embarrassing his big job!"
"This is not something we should worry about!"
Mr. Xu waved his hand, "Your fourth uncle is not a three-year-old child. He knows what he is doing."
"By the way, I think there will be a severe drought today. I plan to build a waterwheel with the village by the Taohua River. I have already reached an agreement with your seventh uncle on this matter. I will wait until the second brother comes back tomorrow. , when you two are racing dragon boats on the Peach Blossom River, please pay more attention!"
"Dad, how did you know there was going to be a severe drought?"
Upon hearing what his father said, Boss Xu's eyes widened, "When did you have this ability?"
"Stop talking so much!"
Mr. Xu glared at Mr. Xu angrily, "I'm not kidding you. There is a high possibility of a severe drought in a few years. Our family now has a large population."
"You guys are focusing on the construction of the waterwheel. Your father and I have to find a way to collect more food."
Even if we are collecting grain, we cannot make a big show of it.
Otherwise, if there is a serious drought year, if the court fails to provide disaster relief in time, this large family with food may become the target of public criticism.
Therefore, even if you want to collect food, you have to do it quietly.
"got it!"
Although Boss Xu felt that his father was a bit nagging, he was still very obedient and did not express any opinions. He was honest and obedient.
After all, whether it is getting a water tanker or collecting grain, it is a beneficial and harmless thing.
The water wheel can be used no matter when it is built. When will farmers no longer need to water their fields
As for food, my family has a restaurant.
No matter how bad it is, it’s still good to keep it for wine making.
The homemade old wine is more delicious than the wine sold outside.
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing!"
Mr. Xu chuckled and said, "Your sister can already call her daddy."
"…?!"
Is this a thing
Boss Xu rolled his eyes. Is it unusual for his sister to call her daddy? (End of chapter)
