A piece of paper

All the bosses ate and drank well and left drunk.

A large bright lantern hung high under the eaves of the restaurant. The moon was rising in the sky, and the clear light poured down from the gap between the rubble and the white wall. Xian Jin lowered his head and swayed back and forth on the threshold with his feet like a child—— Here she was waiting for the mule carriage to return to Orange Yard.

For example, working in the inner ring road and living in the North Fourth Ring Road have a long commute.

Well, unlike poor Beidiao, she has her own car and driver.

Hehe, I'm so sorry.

Xianjin's thoughts flew to nowhere, and a gentle voice sounded behind him.

"Don't step on the threshold—"

Xian Jin turned around and saw the star of hope, Boss Duan, who was showing off his power today, walking calmly and gently, with a smile on his lips. He no longer looked like he was crazy today. "Children, please remember not to step on the threshold. The threshold is a wall. There will be no future." Good things are blocked outside the house, and if you step on them, you will open a way for bad luck to flow."

Xian Jin:! ! !
Jump down now!
He even bent down to pat the dust off Lord Chunzi, and apologized respectfully, "Master Chunshi, it was an unintentional mistake. Don't blame me, don't blame me!"

Boss Duan laughed, with a warm smile in his eyes, "This kid seems to be fearless, but he believes in these nonsense talk about cause and effect."

Xian Jin raised his head and said confidently, "Businessmen, there is no one who doesn't believe it! I once met a boss who never reconciled the accounts in the morning. Even if the money is really urgent, we have to wait until noon before discussing."

Boss Duan tilted his head, "Why?"

"If you go out with money in the morning, your business luck will be bad all day long!"

Boss Duan laughed, "Doesn't it mean that there is no reconciliation on the first day of the new year? - If you give money out at the beginning of the month, the fortune will be unlucky for the whole month?"

Xian Jin nodded.

"Then I won't give it to you in the first month, otherwise your luck will be bad for the whole year?"

Xianjin thought for a while, felt it made sense, and nodded again.

Boss Duan was overjoyed, "Isn't this just because you want to delay the bill?"

Xian Jin also laughed, "But that boss's business is indeed getting bigger and bigger!"

Boss Duan smiled and said clearly, "That's for sure. A boss who is stingy and eloquent, making excuses for his stinginess, will definitely get bigger and bigger business!"

Xianjin laughed.

The laughter of the two gradually weakened.

Xian Jin's mule cart stopped at the door, Xian Jin opened the curtain and asked Boss Duan to get on the carriage, "Auntie, it's getting late, I'll take you back."

Boss Duan was not polite to Xian Jin. He put one hand on Xian Jin’s arm and held the basket door with the other to get on the mule cart. , "Your willingness to take over this big stall of the Chen family is beyond my expectation."

Boss Duan stretched out his hand and licked his hair elegantly, his voice a little arrogant, "I took it, not because of the Chen family. It was because I saw the clerk in the shop helping his old lady with gray temples to get some medicine - except for your new recruit. Those nineteen people, these twenty old guys from the Chen family have been helping all their lives, and they should not bear the punishment brought about by their master's incompetence."

Xian Jin was stunned.

She thought Boss Duan was talented because of Chen Erlang's father.
Xian Jin was in awe.

The corners of Boss Duan's mouth slightly raised, revealing a small dimple, "Actually, I don't understand anything, but someone has to stand up. If it chills people's hearts, then the sin will be really big - after the death of Erlang's father , I couldn’t sleep well all night, and that night after I volunteered to stand up, I actually slept until dawn for the first time in my life.”

With a smile on his lips, he listened quietly to Boss Duan's words. After a while, he said softly, "People have to find something to do." Boss Duan nodded slightly, "That's the truth. It's a pity that I didn't understand this truth until I was over 10 years old. clear."

"It's not too late." Xian Jin said softly.

Boss Duan's eyes were always gentle and calm, "It's not too late - I thought I would be so busy that I would be blinded, but I didn't know that although it is difficult, it is not impossible to complete. Although I am not good now, I am also from a serious scholar's family. I also went to school at home and can read and do math.”

"Let me start with the account books - thanks to you, the Chen family's account books in recent years are clean and clear at a glance. When and where did the raw materials be purchased? How much did they pay? When did they place more orders for Xiaocao Village? , when do you make more paper by yourself? Where is the cost of each type of rice paper? Where is the profit? There are many things and complicated things, and the emotions are long and complex, but it is still interesting. "

Boss Duan's voice was calm, but he could hear the obvious joy.

The smile on Xianjin's face rose slightly.

Boss Duan seemed to have saved a lot of words, and today he finally found a chance to talk, "Oh, I also stopped the monthly payment of the second brother's family! I also stopped the wages of the maids, servants, and mother-in-law in their yard! - —If you don’t work for a day, you won’t be able to lie down comfortably!”

"There are also the two men of Sanfang! Sanlang though"

Boss Duan thought for a long time how to evaluate Chen Sanlang, who was delicate and soft. "Although Sanlang is a little strange, he has been taking care of the shop. Silang has always used the excuse of studying to neither contribute nor work. I will I'm rushing to work as a cashier in Xuantian!"

The Chen family is like a winter bug with its legs stiffened by the severe cold. If they don't splash some hot oil on it, they may be dead before spring comes.

"Now the eldest son is the widowed mother who heads the house. I am not their biological mother or grandmother. I am trying to control myself, but the men in the family are living a happy life!"

Boss Duan said in a relaxed tone, "Second uncle is an honest man after all. After working at home for a few days, he went to work in the paper mill. The second brother and sister also took the initiative to take over the cards from home and help take care of the middle feed. The third brother and sister also had a busy day."

Xian Jin couldn't help but said, "What is the third wife busy with?"

Boss Duan pursed his lips, "I dug a few big holes in the yard the day before yesterday, and filled those holes yesterday. When I went out today, I saw her holding a shovel, so I guess I have to dig the ground again."

Show gold:.
Mainly because of the sense of busy participation, right?
Boss Duan said and shook his head, "No matter what she is busy with, it is better to be busy with things than to stay at home all day long."

Xian Jinshen thought so: Those gossiping old ladies at the head of the village were all free, so they gave her two acres of land to plow. Let’s see if she still has the energy to talk behind her back all day long!
The mule cart swayed and stopped all the way at the gate of Chen's house.

Boss Duan got off the car.

There was a tacit understanding between the two that they did not mention the grievances between Xian Jin and the Chen family, the love and hate between Chen Fu and his mother, or the harmonious atmosphere between the female boss and the two to attract wealth.

The mule cart continued towards its destination.

Boss Duan was waiting at the door of Chen's house. Seeing the mule cart disappearing at the end of the street, Fang sighed and said in a low voice, "It's a pity that it's Erlang."

The maid behind him didn't hear clearly, so she put her head in and said "ah".

Boss Duan shook his head, lifted up the hem of his skirt and walked inside, "It's okay - I'm very tired today. Warm up two pots of hot wine for me and let me relax!"

The maid smiled and went to the kitchen.

Boss Duan suddenly remembered an incident from the past: when she just got married, Erlang's father asked her what she thought was the biggest benefit of getting married.
She thought for a long time before answering: You can drink whenever you want without fear of your mother tugging on your ears.

现在
Boss Duan looked up at the moon hanging on the eaves.

It's pretty good now.

She can still drink whenever she wants. (End of chapter)
