Chapter 380

Ye Xiaoxian invited a teacher for Dongdong and Xiaoxia, starting from teaching them to read.

After the two children began to study, her days became more leisurely.

Xiao Baoshan handles official business every day. The children are under the control of Mammy. She continues to study her recipes when she has nothing to do.

It's best to sell these recipes in Tianshan noodle restaurant, so that the big room and the third room can make more money.

……

That day, she went to the noodle shop with a recipe and inspected it to see its current operation.

There was no problem with hygiene and hospitality, and the table layout was also OK.

However, when turning over the account books, she felt that Xiao Baocheng had some flashes and didn't dare to look at her.

When the noodle shop opened, ye Xiaoxian didn't prepare Mr. accounting room. She wanted to cultivate Xiao Baocheng. After all, he read books and learned how to manage accounts with Xiao Baozhu when he was in Tianshan tribe.

Ye Xiaoxian wondered why Xiao Baocheng dared not look at her all the time?

However, after checking the account book, I saw that the account book was still neat, but some details were not written well.

For example, there were 200 bowls of beef noodles sold that day, with 12 Wen for each bowl, but Xiao Baocheng counted ten Wen more.

This is not a big problem, but it is also what Xiao Baocheng should pay attention to.

Ye Xiaoxian points it out with Xiao Baocheng. Although Xiao Baocheng sincerely accepts it, his forehead is sweating.

Ye Xiaoxian also comforted him: "Baocheng, you don't have to be nervous. The second sister-in-law knows that you are a careful child. As long as you are careful, you can do it well."

Xiao Baocheng quickly promised: "yes, second sister-in-law, I know. I will be careful in the future."

"Well, work hard. Maybe the noodle shop can open a branch in the future. At that time, your task will be heavier and more managed!"

Xiao Baocheng sincerely agreed again.

……

In the palace.

It's time to turn on the lights again.

The eunuch came over with a sign and asked Li Chengru to turn it over.

I don't know why. In the past, he hated this moment very much. He felt like those cattle and sheep under Tianshan Mountain. He only knew how to breed.

However, when the eunuch brought the sign again and asked him to turn it over, he had a glimmer of expectation.

He suddenly thought of a sentence that I don't know who said: some people will forget their original heart when they walk.

He looked at the signs and chose a "beauty Zhang".

These days, he spoiled Chen Guiren, Shu Guibin and Shu Fei.

I don't know why. In the past, these stiff beauties in front of him suddenly became enlightened. They all have flesh and blood and personality. Some can dance, some can tell jokes, and some can sing poetry and paint with him, each with their own style.

Unconsciously, he felt that his previous ideas were too old-fashioned. How can he only regard himself as a tool for reproduction.

This is clearly a matter of enjoyment.

He has enough to worry about the previous dynasty. Only when he returns to the harem can these concubines relax him.

However, he still adheres to a principle, that is, rain and dew should be mixed, and we must not favor one over the other.

Therefore, even if he saw a concubine who didn't agree with him, he turned to the concubine as well.

Therefore, the harem has never been so harmonious.

Li Chengru went to Zhang Meimei's place tonight. When he first entered the door, he found that Zhang Meimei was a little reserved.

He even whispered, "you don't have to be afraid of me."

Beauty Zhang is still squeaking and nervous.

Li Chengru simply asked, "do you have any unspeakable difficulties? It's inconvenient to sleep, or for other reasons?"

Zhang Meimei said nervously: "tell the emperor, I heard that the sisters in each palace have talents, some can tell jokes, some can recite poems against them, and I'm a slave... I've been lazy since childhood. I can't even learn words well, and I can't dance. I can only do the same..."

"What?" Li Chengru asked with great interest.

Zhang Mei humanitarian: "slaves and maidservants will... Imitate the cries of various animals."

"Oh? Then learn a cow's name for me first." Li Chengru and Taoism.

Zhang Meimei learned a cow's name.

Li Chengru also saw many cattle in Tianshan. The moo of cattle was like Zhang Meimei. He was happy and said, "where is the sheep barking?"

Beauty Zhang seemed to hear a sheep cry again.

Then there is the crow of a chicken and the bark of a dog.

Li Chengru watched songs and dances, listened to the piano and played the flute a while ago. Now he actually heard these. He liked them very much. At the same time, he thought this beauty Zhang was very interesting.

That night, Li Chengru spoiled beauty Zhang again.

The next day, he also let beauty Zhang reward a lot of things.

The concubines of the harem came again and asked her how she did it. Zhang Meimei told her what happened last night.

The concubines found that the emperor really liked versatile women.

It seems that the way of attacking and scheming in the harem doesn't work. They have to have talent. Therefore, they don't feel that they have talked about life. They have enough strength to practice their talents and swear that they must practice their current talents until they are proficient.

……

After "Tianshan" noodle restaurant launched new products, there were more people.

Ye Xiaoxian improved the pearl milk tea and gave the formula to Wang Mudan and Chen Ju. As soon as the milk tea was pushed out, it immediately attracted many customers.

In the former dynasty, this was a favorite drink for the harem and officials' families.

Now not only female customers, but also male customers are in love.

Ye Xiaoxian also asked Wang Mudan to open a new window to sell pearl milk tea and line up to buy it. In this way, the people who bought pearl milk tea lined up for dozens of meters and almost lined up in another street.

Xiao Baocheng didn't wait until the procuress sent someone to collect the money. He relaxed his heart and thought that maybe the procuress didn't dare to come, or maybe the princes didn't want his account.

But that day, Xiao Baocheng was busy at the counter when seven or eight fierce looking servants with sticks rushed in.

Xiao Baocheng suddenly shivered.

The clothes of these servants he recognized were those of the red sleeve workshop.

Did they come to collect money every half a month?

Seeing these people coming to the store, they were threatening again. The guests in the store realized that it was bad. Some did not order or had not paid, so they ran away.

Xiao Tieshu and Xiao Tongshu were also in the store. When they saw these people coming, they didn't find out why.

Last month, someone in this street came to pay the protection fee. Xiao Tieshu told them that they were general Xiao's people, and those who collected the protection fee did not dare to come.

So Xiao Tieshu came over and said, "what's the matter? It's not easy for General Xiao's family to do small business. If you want to eat noodles or other things, we welcome them, but if you want something else, we don't have this rule for the time being."

The Xiao copper tree also said, "yes, yes."

They used to be soap servants in the Yamen of Qinghe County and knew the way.

The head servant said with a straight face, "we're not here to eat or want anything else. We're here to collect debts. Young master Xiao Baocheng, what are you doing hiding on the counter? Don't you have to pay back the silver you owe yourself?"

Hearing that Xiao Baocheng owed money, everyone was stunned.

Xiao Baocheng himself dared not hide, but stood out and stood behind Xiao Tieshu.

The first servant took out the IOU from his arms, Then hand it to Xiao Tieshu: "There are 220 taels of silver with his own Monogram on it. It's clear in black and white. It says that if you don't pay it back within the time limit, you'll have to add one or two interest every day. Seeing that you're from General Xiao's family, we won't calculate the interest with you. But we can't take less of the 220 taels of silver. Please take out the money quickly and we'll go back to pay the job. ”

"220 liang?" Xiao Tieshu and Xiao Tongshu were shocked.

"Is this a misunderstanding?" Xiao Tieshu asked, "what did he do to owe so much silver?"

"You ask him!" The servant is a person who owes money. He is full of confidence and doesn't pay attention to anyone.

It is natural to pray for the law and owe them money.

Xiao Tieshu looked at Xiao Baocheng and his tone suddenly became fierce: "what have you done? Why do you owe so much money?"

Xiao Baocheng hesitated: "I went to have flower wine with... Some of your sons."

"Drink flower wine?" Xiao Tieshu was so angry that he was angry: "you are a loser. You don't learn well. You should learn to drink flower wine. No wonder you come back so late every day recently."

I heard that someone was making trouble in front of me. Wang Mudan and Chen Ju also came out. Seeing so many people around Xiao Baocheng, she couldn't help but go over and ask, "what's the matter, what's the matter?"

Xiao Tieshu pointed to Xiao Baocheng: "your beloved son owes 220 liang of silver for drinking flower wine outside!"

"What? More than two hundred liang?" Wang Mudan has made money these days, but she has never taken over 200 liang of silver. She can't help but panic: "just drink flower wine. Do you want so much money?"

Xiao Tieshu stared at her: "Ye told us earlier that there are many temptations in the capital, and the money is different in different places. He mixes with those dignitaries and dignitaries. Can he go where people go?"

Xiao Tieshu became more and more angry when he said this. He picked up a wooden stick and beat Xiao Baocheng.

Wang Mudan worried about breaking the child and hurried to pull it.

But Chen Ju and Xiao Tongshu didn't pull it.

This rice official is shared by both of their families. If Xiao Baocheng owes money, can't he take money from their restaurant to eliminate his debt? With so much money, aren't they working for nothing in the past two months?

Those who come to collect debts are not stopped. They have seen a lot of such scenes. Since hongxifang has raised them, they ask for debts everywhere, and the objects of asking for debts are often those black sheep.

There was a big noise in the store, and the guests were almost running. Xiao Tongshu went to Xiao house to inform Xiao Baoshan.

Xiaobaoshan has been busy with official business. There is only Ye Xiaoxian in the mansion.

When ye Xiaoxian heard the Xiao Tongshu say about what had happened, she couldn't help feeling a tingle in her scalp.

Sure enough, the last thing she wanted to see happened.

No matter which generation, or modern, it is difficult for people who come to big cities from small places to resist the temptation. Unless there is no temptation, few people can resist it once they have it.
