Chapter 243 Agreed
The next day, Huo Xi was stunned when she heard Li Shiwu's decision.
"You asked Uncle Yu to follow me?"
Li Shiwu nodded: "Your Uncle Yu is not as knowledgeable as your Uncle Yi. He is more detached, and not as good as your Uncle Yi who can concentrate on teaching and educating people. In the early years, he followed me in Beijing. Communication is considered proficient."
"Uncle Keyu is now married and has a child, so it's a little bad to let him leave his hometown and be separated from his aunt Yi'er?"
"It's okay, I discussed it with your Uncle Yu, and he is willing. If it weren't for my age now, I would be more willing to go to the capital with you. But there are many people in the capital who know me, and I'm afraid it will ruin your business. "
"This... that Shushu is busy?"
"Don't worry, it's very easy to recruit another gentleman from the school."
Hearing his arrangement, Huo Xi complied, feeling very happy.
Li Shiwu saw her nodding, and said with a smile: "Uncle Yu may not be able to do it alone, I will help you find the old ones your grandfather used before. When they are found, I will send them to find you."
"Okay, thank you grand-uncle for taking care of me."
"You child is a heretic. I treat you with the same heart as your grandfather. They are all blood relatives."
"yes."
Since Li Yu was willing to follow her, Huo Xi consulted with his father and son.
I plan to let him be in charge of the shop in Jiaxing, collect some local goods in Jiaxing and Nanxun, mainly silk, and then send them directly to Songjiang.
Now there is Uncle Li Yu who is willing to run on both sides. In order to see him and his family often, he is not arranged to go to the shop in the capital, but let him go to Nanxun and Jiaxing, and the silk is collected and shipped directly to Songjiang.
At that time, we will open another shop in Songjiang, rent a big yard, let the nanny and Mama come out of the weaving workshop, buy a few looms for the two of them, and weave for ourselves, and weave whenever we want. , not bound by others.
At that time, I will hire a few more people to work with them, and weaving cloth will be collected in Songjiang at the same time.
Let Uncle Li Yu run around to help collect grain and cloth and sell silk.
Nanxun can get there in two days if it is fast, or three days if it is slow, and it will not affect his reunion with his family.
Li Yu was very happy when he heard Huo Xi's arrangement. He originally thought that he would be separated from his family for a long time, and he was reluctant to part with his wife and children. With this arrangement, he would be able to see his wife and children often.
Nod your head in response.
Huo Xi discussed with him, and gave him a thousand taels of silver, asking him to collect some silk and send it to Songjiang, and then help the nanny buy a few looms.
The nanny and the grandfather's family also knew each other, so there was no need for Huo Xi to go to Songjiang himself.
It was agreed that Huo Xi had been out for about ten days, so he was going to return to Beijing.
Li Shiwu's family was very reluctant to let her go, and prepared a lot of local gifts for her. Mrs. Wu held onto Mrs. Yang and couldn't finish talking.
"Don't worry, the two children are the lives of my father and me, and they are the treasures in our hands." Yang's sympathy for her and Li Shiwu.
Ms. Wu nodded again and again, thank you again and again.
Huo Xi saluted them, took his leave and left. Li Shiwu took his family along the embankment to the river mouth at the entrance of the village, and then watched them turn into another river, and turned home when they couldn't see them.
Mr. Yang looked at the stuff on the boat, and was very emotional: "Your uncle's family gave you a lot of things, and the gifts we gave are too thin."
Huo Xi looked through it, and was moved in his heart: "I will visit them often when I have free time, and prepare a gift for my uncle on New Year's Day."
Huo Erhuai nodded: "Exactly. When I'm free later, Dad will bring you here again."
"Yes. Dad, we also have a shop in Pingjiang, let's go there and have a look."
Mr. Yang smiled while putting things away: "A few days ago your father came to Jiaxing shop to act as the owner, but you can pretend he is addicted."
Huo Erhuai chuckled: "Then we can't let Xi'er stand in the way? How old is she, don't let people look down on her."
Huo Xi nodded with a smile: "My father was originally the boss. It's very imposing to pretend to be the boss."
Mr. Yang and Huo Erhuai both laughed. Mrs. Yang thought of Nian'er and sighed: "We haven't been back for so long, Nian'er probably misses us. I don't know if he will cry."
Nian'er, who was abandoned by her parents and sister, really started to cry.
After school this day, all the classmates went out happily. After a while, they were picked up by the parents, servants and servants at home, leaving him standing alone at the gate of the school.
Tiptoed to look to the left, but did not see uncle. Stretching his neck to look right, he didn't see his uncle either. The little face was deflated.
Waited for a while, but still did not see my uncle. The little stomach growled again.
Pi Xiaozi looked at all kinds of food sold at the entrance of the school on the roadside, and swallowed his saliva while clutching his stomach.
I keep chanting scriptures to myself: "When uncle comes, ask uncle to buy it for Nian'er. Nian'er is at the door. Parents and sisters say not to run around. If you are kidnapped, you will not see your parents."
The old man who guarded the gate saw him running on tiptoe to look at him for a while, and stretched his neck to look at the other side. He was a little distressed, and called him: "Nian boy, come, come to grandpa."
Huo Nian moved his feet, but he didn't pass. Shaking his head: "I'll wait for my uncle."
"Do you want to wait in the school with grandpa?"
"No, I'll wait at the door."
Seeing that he was unwilling to enter the school, the gatekeeper didn't force him, and just looked at him. After a while, I got tired from sitting, and went in by myself, and came out to look after a while, and saw that he was still there, and felt relieved.
In and out, come out from time to time to have a look at him.
Huo Nian didn't know if his uncle was too busy to pick him up, so he didn't dare to walk away. Walking around the door of the Shushu, squatting here and standing there.
After all, I was so hungry that I took out my purse from my book bag, walked to a stall selling food, and bought a pie with three copper coins.
Squat down to a corner of the Shushu, grab the pie and eat it. As soon as I took two bites, I cried aggrievedly.
Feeling like the unwanted puppy in the corner.
The puppy was still staring at the food in his hand, and wanted to come up and grab it from him. Pi Xiaozi tore a piece for it, drove the puppy away, and squatted back to the corner.
After a while, he began to cry aggrievedly, sobbing softly at first, but as a result, more and more little golden beans fell.
Zhang Fu left the Yamen and made an appointment with a few colleagues to have a drink at Mochou Lake.
Get out of the sedan chair and stroll along the edge of Mochou Lake.
I heard a small sobbing sound, looked for the sound, and saw a little boy, squatting in the shadow of the corner, a small ball, holding a pie, biting a bite, crying, and sniffling .
Aggrieved, with a pitiful look.
Zhang Fu's heart instantly softened into a puddle of water. Taking a closer look, it turned out that he had met once before.
That day, the child ran out of the school with a smile on his face, his eyes were so crowded that he couldn't see, only his mouth was full of small teeth, and he rushed straight to his mother who picked him up at the door.
How could he be squatting in a corner by himself?
Zhang Fu looked around and saw no one. The door of the Shushu was also deserted, and the door was still ajar.
My heart softened, and I walked towards the kid.
There is another chapter in the afternoon
