Madam, go home and farm

Chapter 275
Originally, Puhuang thought that the Su family would do something about salted duck eggs, but he didn't expect that they would open a lo mei shop directly opposite them. Whatever they had in their shop, the other party also had them, and they also opened branches in other places in Spring City. The price is the same as that of others, and the taste is worse than that of our own and better than that of ordinary people.

Moreover, when it first opened, there were some discounts and promotions, and they advertised vigorously, which attracted a lot of people for a while, and part of the passenger flow was also pulled away.

Hong Hao'an didn't feel much. Although the ones he sells are more expensive, they taste really good. It's impossible for ordinary people to buy them often. However, there are many ships passing by, and there are many rich people. The impact is not large.

The guests might live in their own house, so Pu Huang and Hong Hao'an bought a lot of household items and prepared a lot of dry goods. Now, the yard is not so empty at last.

In a few days, Hong Haoan estimated the time, and went to the pier to wait. Now the other side is very lively, and of course it is a bit chaotic. Fortunately, a lot of yamen servants have been added, and there are more arrests in charge. Two, but I have a good relationship with Captain Cai, and no one is looking for trouble or anything.

While waiting, Hong Haoan chatted with Detective Cai. When it came to the children at home, there were many topics. Seeing that Detective Cai's youngest son was about to turn one year old and was learning to walk, there were a lot of interesting things to tell. , those who envy Hong Haoan wish that Wanwan will be able to call him dad sweetly when he is one year old.

Of course, when I think about it, I haven’t missed the business. I’ve written down the time. I have to prepare some longevity locks, a few bolts of good cotton cloth, and other dry goods. This gift won’t be too expensive, but it won’t be too expensive. too light.

Within an hour, a large ship heading south came into the port, and a group of people soon flooded the pier, soliciting customers, selling things, and all kinds of excitement. Hong Haoan took a look at the crowd for a while, and when he saw a familiar person, he couldn't help but wave. He started to say hello.

"Brother Chen, you've finally arrived. I thought it would take a while." Hong Haoan said with a smile. Originally, he wanted to help unload the luggage. too much.

"Now the river is well rested and the road is going smoothly." Chen Dahua said with a smile, patted Hong Haoan on the shoulder, and introduced him to the handsome young man next to him, "Come on, Brother Haoan, here you are Let me introduce, this is our boss, Young Master Xue."

When Hong Haoan heard that the surname was Xue, he thought to himself, what a coincidence, it has the same surname as the person the princess is looking for, but he didn't think too much about it. If it is really like what Lu Yuan said, there must be news channels that know that Princess Xinyuan is still in Chuncheng , How can you throw yourself into the trap?

"I've heard Brother Chen say that his boss is young and promising. Seeing him now, Hong really feels ashamed. I've already reserved a table at the Zhenwei Building, and I hope to show off for the two of you." Hong Haoan clasped his hands and said, He and Chen Dahua are called brothers, but this young master Xue is not, he is the eldest master, and those of different classes should not speak too casually.

Young Master Xue, that is, Xue Bai, Chen Dahua is indeed the steward of the Xue family, but he is just a small steward. He did not expect to find someone who has been to Spring City, and he knows Hong Haoan. A lot of trouble.

"I'm also relying on my family's blessings, but Boss Hong is the best. I've heard many people say that your lo mei and salted duck eggs are delicious. Boss Hong, don't be stingy, you have to let us Taste everything." Xue Bai looked at Hong Hao'an, and he could speak well, not to the level of those big managers under him, but being a small boss is almost the same.

"That's for sure, and it's also thanks to everyone's blessing to take care of my family's business. However, although that thing is good, it can't be used as a staple food. It's better to warm a pot of wine at night and eat it with it. It's more suitable for chatting and watching the moon." Hong Haoan laughed. Hehe said, this Young Master Xue looks like a precious person, don't you know if you are used to eating braised meat?

After exchanging greetings for a while, a few people went to the Zhenwei Building. The shopkeeper of the Zhenwei Building had recognized Hong Hao'an for a long time, and arranged for him the best box, with the best food and drink.

"This Zhenwei Restaurant is not a century-old restaurant, but it is famous for having so many famous dishes, especially the dried fish grilled in garlic sauce, which is very delicious. Young Master Xue must try it." Hong Haoan He introduced with a smile that the so-called professional cooks are different. He only has a few ways to cook dried fish, but he has created a unique style, and the business is so good that people are envious.

"Boss Hong introduced it. I must have a good taste." Young Master Xue narrowed his eyes slightly. This is his first time in Chuncheng. Although there are many beauties in Jiangnan, Chuncheng is not like a southern city. Now, and there is news that the girl from the You family is here, maybe he won't even set foot on it.

"Young Master Xue will definitely not be disappointed." Hong Hao'an smiled, talking with Xue Bai and Chen Dahua one by one, waiting for Xiao Er to serve the food. I put my luggage in the yard. According to the address, it is only a quarter of an hour away from my home. It really is a big family, and there are properties in any place.

It took an hour to eat and drink, and sent the person to Xue Bai's residence. Hong Haoan came back, feeling more tired than before talking about business, and entertaining such a young master, he really couldn't relax for a moment.

"Hey, why did you come back so early?" Pu Huang knew that Hong Haoan went to pick up someone today, could it be that he didn't pick up anyone.

"I just sent people to the place where they live, and it's not far from us." Hong Hao'an said a little sullenly, "Lady, I feel so tired. It's really uncomfortable dealing with those people. If everyone is like Runzhi Just fine."

Puhuang laughed, and stuffed Wanwan into his hand, "What are you thinking about, anyway, you don't want to see them every day, and when they leave, it's over, well, I'll do the laundry after seeing my daughter go."

"Hey, Wanwan, you haven't woken up when Dad went out this morning, do you miss Dad!" Hong Haoan held Wanwan in one hand, and held her little hand in the other, and said in a low voice, watching his daughter purely looking at her. For an instant, I felt that my whole body was revived in place.

It's not that Hong Hao'an doesn't help Puhuang wash clothes, but that she washes clothes directly in a big bucket, pours water into it, pours soap liquid, then spins it, and then spins it dry. The washing speed is fast and clean. After one time, he never said to help.

Teasing Wanwan, when Hong Haoan raised his head, he saw two large boxes on the table. He couldn't help feeling strange, "My lady, was there someone here before?"

"Yeah, Xiaoxi brought me some things she made, what's the matter?"

"Oh, I saw two boxes on the table, who did I think gave it to?" Hearing that he knew someone, Hong Haoan felt relieved, "Lady, today I saw Brother Chen's owner, named Xue Shao, I'm a bit skeptical if it's the person Princess Xinyuan is looking for, but Big Brother Chen said he's just a small steward, so will his employer be Xue Bai?"

Although he felt that there was nothing to doubt, but when it came to Princess Xinyuan, Hong Haoan felt that it would be better to discuss it with Puhuang.

"It's hard to say. By the way, do you still remember that Xiaoxi asked us to help her find out about a person called Mr. Xue. Tell me, maybe the person we asked didn't know, but the status is not low. At first, Puhuang didn't think too much about it, but when Xiaoxi talked about this person's attitude, and then Princess Xinyuan's waiting, plus Lu Yuan's simple description, if they were put together like this, some things might make sense Cleared up.

Hong Haoan was stunned for a moment, "Lady, what do you mean, the person Xiaoxi wants us to inquire about is Mr. Xue. He is probably the elder of Mr. Xue, or someone he knows?"

"What if one of them is Xue Bai? Take a chance and ask your elder brother Chen. If it is true, think about it and see if you can report it to the prefect Lu?" Anyway, I can't meet Princess Xinyuan again. Yes, there must be vigilance against him, and he doesn't want to get involved too much, it's best to avoid this kind of thing if he can.

If these few things were not related to his family, who would think so much, since there is some relationship, then everything is possible if they are connected together, Hong Haoan thought about it and agreed with Puhuang's idea.

"I will pay attention to this matter. By the way, Ma'am, Detective Cai's youngest son will be one year old in October, so gifts must be prepared in advance. I have already sent someone to break the longevity lock."

"I remember this. I almost forgot about it this day." Puhuang dried the clothes and went into the kitchen. But eat it yourself, don't care so much, "By the way, when is your birthday, I don't even know?"

"The second day of June has already passed." Hong Hao'an was a little surprised. Pu Huang asked what he was doing. Here, ordinary people usually celebrate their birthdays in the more important year. For example, a person's life is one year old, ten years old , 16 years old, 30 years old, 60 years old, after 60 years old, it happens almost once a year.

"I remember you are 26 now, and I was thinking of celebrating your birthday."

When Hong Haoan heard this, he couldn't help but grinned, "My lady, your birthday has passed, and we will celebrate it every year from now on, how about it?"

"Okay!" Pu Huang replied with a smile.

Originally, Hong Haoan thought he would stay with Xue Shao for several days, but he didn't expect that Chen Dahua came to the door by himself on the second day. Compared with yesterday, he was more enthusiastic, and he didn't seem so restrained without his employer. .

"Brother Chen, I was just about to find you, but you came here by yourself, hey, what about your boss, won't you come today?" It's better not to come, it's too uncomfortable to hold on to him for everything.

"My boss has other business, this time I come here, I don't need to follow all the time." Chen Dahua saw Puhuang, smiled and said hello: "This is a younger brother and sister, Dahua hastily came to disturb the door, I hope the younger brother will forgive me."

"How come, you and your husband are friends, why bother you? It's too late to welcome you. Sit down and I'll boil the water."
