Chapter 378 A Zhi's Thoughts

Bai Boze said with a smile: "Of course, this matter still needs to be discussed carefully after Master Lin returns. Why don't Mrs. Lin bring the children to visit my house some other day, and meet my little daughter by the way?"

Yao Shu blinked blankly.

Is this a kiss to Ah Zhi?But Ah Zhi hasn't even finished replacing his deciduous teeth!
Seeing Yao Shu's undisguised startled reaction, Bai Boze felt a little embarrassed, and said embarrassingly, "I'm being rude. I shouldn't have brought this up, but I had a few more conversations with the elders today, and I was lucky enough to When I ran into Mrs. Lin, I couldn't help but say it...which made Madam laugh."

Yao Shu couldn't hold back the smile on his face, and shook his head helplessly, "Mr. Bai, there is nothing rude about it. Since Ah Zhi worships you as a teacher, the Bai family and our family can naturally talk about everything. .only……"

Her gentle and gentle tone made people feel like spring breeze. The world loves gentle and beautiful women, and Bai Boze is no exception.

When he was talking to Yao Shu, his voice couldn't help softening: "Madam Lin has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

Seeing Yao Shu not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he pointed to his son and said, "Ah Zhi is still young, Ling Qianjin is just a child, isn't this marriage a bit too anxious?"

This reason did not convince Bai Bize.

He shook his head and said, "What's the point of being young? As long as our two families are right, it's a good talk even if we marry each other with our fingertips."

As he said that, he looked at Xie Qian, maybe he remembered that Xie Qian's marriage was settled since childhood.

Xie and Xue's two families quickly fell apart, and he pressed the words that came to his lips.

Seeing Bai Boze's high-spirited appearance, Yao Shu didn't want to disappoint, so he smiled and said, "I'm not in a position to make decisions about marriage. So I wrote to Ah Zhi's father, asking when he can come back, so I can talk to Mr. Bai." See you."

Lin Rong just set off today, even if the battle goes well, at least it will take a few months to come back.

Not to mention that if the war does not go well, I am afraid it is possible for a year or two.

Although Bai Boze hoped to finalize the matter early, he had to respect Yao Shu's opinion, nodded with a smile, and agreed.

Xie Qian has never expressed his opinion, but in fact, he has his eyes on the White House.

Not to mention that there is only one girl in the direct line of the Bai family, the influence of the Bai family in the court and academia alone is enough to be worthy of Ah Zhi.

In the next few years, when the daughter of the Bai family grows up, I'm afraid that all suitors will step through the threshold.

However, seeing that Yao Shu seemed to have other plans, Xie Qian was not prepared to intervene.

He only opened his mouth, and said to Yao Shu in a low voice: "The Bai family is a well-mannered family, you will know if you walk around more in the future. Ah Zhi should also visit often, and ask your teacher questions."

Both Yao Shu and Ah Zhi agreed.

After chatting for a while, Xie Qian was still busy, so he offered to leave, and Bai Boze followed.

After seeing off the two of them, Yao Shu took Ah Zhi back to his small courtyard. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help asking him: "Mr. Bai, have you known him for a long time?"

Ah Zhi nodded: "Grandpa Xie often takes me to the White Mansion to ask my master for advice, and the teacher is always there."

The boy hesitated for a moment, and said, "Aniang doesn't trust the Bai family?"

Yao Shu patted his son's head and sighed, "No one in Dayan Dynasty knows about the Bai family's reputation? Besides, it's a family that Grandpa Xie knows very well, so their character is naturally not bad."

Ah Zhi quietly waited for Yao Shu's next words.

She thought for a while before she opened her mouth and said, "That Bai girl, have you ever seen her before?"

Ah Zhi nodded: "I've seen it once or twice. Junior sister is about the same age as Erbao, and has a lively personality."

It was hard for Yao Shu to imagine how a boy who hadn't had his baby teeth replaced would have any feelings for a girl who was a few years younger than him.

Azhi's description clearly regarded the little girl as his younger sister.

She struggled and said: "My mother is in trouble, it's actually your marriage."

Ah Zhi rarely blushed a little, but still restrained himself and asked softly, "What's so embarrassing, A Niang?"

Yao Shu straightened his expression, and said to his son: "A Zhi, have you ever seen how father and mother get along with each other?"

The boy recalled it for a while, nodded and said: "When Father is busy, Mother sometimes waits for him to come home under the lamp, and at that time, the expression on Mother's face is serene and calm; when Father is at home, she also I often help my mother with small things..."

When he said this, he paused, showed his white teeth and smiled: "In the future, I will also find such a wife to accompany me for the rest of my life."

Yao Shu's eyes softened, he patted Ah Zhi's head, and said to him: "Aniang believes that if you marry a junior sister from the Bai family in the future, you will treat her well. But Aniang doesn't want any relationship between you two. Pity."

Ah Zhi obviously couldn't understand Yao Shu's words.

She patiently explained to her son: "People's feelings are very strange. You can see the daily relationship between father and mother because we chose each other and chose to live together. If one party is not willing, this relationship will be broken." It's very painful and tormenting. Junior Sister Bai is still young, how can she understand this? If she grows up and has someone she likes, wouldn't it be you? A Niang doesn't want to make a choice for you early."

Ah Zhi's heart was shaken, he frowned, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I never thought about this..."

That's right, if Junior Sister Bai has someone she likes in the future, but she will be bound by his side by a marriage bond——

At that time, could he still see the innocent and carefree smile on the face of the little junior sister?
Seeing the embarrassed and struggling look on his son's face, Yao Shu guessed in his heart that he should love this little junior sister.

She said softly: "Okay, what is a major marriage event is a major event that causes headaches. Let's discuss this issue slowly in the future. Besides, your father is not here, so it is too early to say anything."

Ah Zhi gave a "hmm", then glanced at Yao Shu, as if he hesitated to speak.

Yao Shu smiled, and said with crooked eyebrows: "What's the matter, what can't you say to A Niang?"

Ah Zhi also smiled, shook his head and said: "It's not a big deal. That is, the Bai family only has a teacher now, and the younger junior sisters rarely play with sisters on weekdays. Every day is very boring. She once told me that she wanted to Ah Si will play together. If it's convenient, Aniang will take her younger sister to the White Mansion often, okay?"

Yao Shu laughed, and said deliberately: "Then I have to ask what your sister means. Now A Sichang and Teng'er are playing with their two cousins. Let's see if you can coax her to go to the White Mansion."

Ah Zhilie grinned, thinking to himself: How can I get Junior Sister Bai to join her little group.

……

Since Yao Shu had a chat with Ah Zhi about his "marriage event", he temporarily put this matter behind him.

When Ah Zhi went to the Imperial College in the future, he wanted to see Bai Boze every day, and his relationship with the Bai family gradually became closer.

Lin Rong is now temporarily going to the northwest, so that the relationship between the two families cannot go any further for the time being.

Yao Shu's main energy was concentrated on the cloth village.

These days, she always stays in the shop, and she has long been familiar with the patterns and prices of the cloth sold by her cloth shop, and even which cloth sells well, which cloth is liked by what kind of customers.

Taking advantage of the fact that the shop was not busy in the morning, shopkeeper Wu walked to Yao Shu's side with a smile and said, "Boss, we don't have much fabric in the warehouse. When do you think you can go south again to stock up?"

The quality of the cloth imported from the south is obviously better than that of the local cloth, so the price is naturally higher.

Yao Shu and Yao Feng also bought a lot of gorgeous silks and satins on their own initiative, even fabrics that ordinary people could not afford.

However, this part is the most profitable, which makes shopkeeper Wu have to admire Yao Shu's vision.

She took the opportunity to ask a few words: "How much is left in the warehouse? How many customers have long-term contacts with us now? How many people have taken a fancy to the silk we bought from the south?"

Shopkeeper Wu answered them one by one.

Seeing that there were not many silks and satins left in the cloth shop, Yao Shu really had to make a trip, so he nodded and said, "This time I'm going to the south to buy goods, please ask shopkeeper Wu to pick a good-sighted, smart and reliable guy to follow. My elder brother and I also We will go there together, take him for a few runs, and let the guys do the buying in the future."

Shopkeeper Wu's eyes lit up, and he sighed, "The boss is still bold. If it's someone else, how can he trust his buddy to do such an important thing?"

The purchase of goods involves the source of goods, and you can still hold a lot of money in your hands. It can be said that it is not the most important thing.

Yao Shu shook his head and said earnestly: "So I hope Mr. Wu will carefully select and choose a suitable one. My eldest brother and I will also investigate for a while. If possible, let him do it in the future."

Shopkeeper Wu shouldered such an important responsibility, and felt that his back was slightly bent, but he couldn't help straightening up a little.

He also said seriously: "My boss, don't worry, I will choose this person carefully, and I would rather be short than excessive."

Yao Shu smiled: "That's exactly the reason."

The two chatted for a while, shopkeeper Wu suddenly sighed, shook his head and said, "If I met my boss in the morning 20 years ago, I wouldn't look like this today."

Seeing that there was something in his words, Yao Shu seemed to want to confide in his heart, so he silently refilled tea for shopkeeper Wu and signaled that he was listening.

Shopkeeper Wu sighed and said: "When I was young, I was very ambitious. I always wanted to earn all the money I could get my hands on. I especially had a desire to control. I had to do everything by myself... In the end, things were done well. , but the family broke up."

Shopkeeper Wu, who has always been in good spirits on weekdays, looked a little lonely, and he looked a few years older.

Yao Shu didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only listen to him in silence.

"If I had the vision of my boss, I knew how to train my subordinates to do things for me, so I wouldn't have to worry about everything by myself. It's really hard to buy, I would have known it earlier!"

Yao Shu added a cup of tea to the old man, and said softly, "Mr. Wu, don't worry about it too much. The experience you have accumulated over the years, how can us juniors learn it in a short while? I still have to learn from you for a long time. .”

The sincerity of what she said made most of the boredom in Old Wu's heart go away.

Shopkeeper Wu smiled brightly, and said: "My boss's words can always make people suddenly enlightened, let alone I teach you, I, who is half buried in the soil, really learned a lot from my boss."

The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling like they were confidantes.
