The next day, after breakfast.
When Li Zexuan saw that Tie Dan was walking more naturally and easily than yesterday, he knew that Tie Dan's injuries were more or less healed. He called San Bao over and asked him to hire a carriage to head to the Han Family Manor.
But in his heart, he thought, "After Yan Shaoning finished making the roller bearings, I have to make a luxurious carriage for my family first. Otherwise, I have to hire a carriage every time I go out. How troublesome it is." As a rich second generation, it was not too much to ask for a luxurious carriage, right?
After letting Iron Egg and Han Yuxi get on the carriage, Li Zexuan was embarrassed to go in the same carriage as Han Yuxi. He could only ride the big white horse at home and follow the carriage to the Han Village.
…
"Father, Iron Egg and I are back!"
As soon as they arrived at the door of the small courtyard of the Han Family, Han Yuxi jumped off the carriage, supported Iron Egg, and shouted into the courtyard. After being away from home for so many days, she was also a little homesick.
Then she heard footsteps in the courtyard. Before the person arrived, the sound came first.
"Yuxi, Iron Egg, you're back?"
Han Lizheng walked out and saw that his son and daughter were back. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes. A few days ago, Li Zexuan asked someone to send a letter to him, saying that Iron Egg was injured in Chang 'an City and was recuperating in the Li Family. He had been very worried these days.
Although he usually ordered his son around and didn't care about him at all, when he heard that his son was injured, Han Lizheng couldn't help but worry. He had been feeling uneasy for the past few days. Now that he finally saw that his son was fine, he felt relieved.
At this moment, Han Lizheng caught a glimpse of Li Zexuan standing to the side. He was shocked and interrupted his thoughts of talking to his son and daughter. He hurriedly went forward and said, "Young Master, you're here too!"
Li Zexuan said apologetically, "Uncle Han, this time Iron Egg and Yuxi came to the city. It's my fault that I did not take good care of them and let Iron Egg get injured. I'm really sorry, Uncle Han!"
Han Lizheng quickly waved his hand. Although he didn't study much, he could still distinguish right from wrong. It was too far-fetched to blame Li Zexuan for this matter.
"Young Master, please don't say that. You can't blame Young Master for this matter. Young Master, thank you for taking care of Iron Egg after he was injured! Let's not just stand outside. Let's go in and talk. "
…
"Uncle Han, other than sending Iron Egg Yuxi home, I also have something to discuss with Uncle Han."
They sat down in the room and chatted for a while before Li Zexuan cut to the chase.
"Young Master, if there is anything you need, please tell me." Han Lizheng sat up straight and earnestly said.
"I don't dare to instruct you, but I have something to discuss with Uncle Han. Previously, when I was at my house, I found that Yuxi's winemaking skills were very good, so I wanted her to help me make a new wine. The monthly salary is ten strings of coins. I don't know if Uncle Han is willing. "
Han Lizheng's eyes widened. Ten strings of coins! It was more than what he worked hard to earn in a year. He quickly shook his head and said, "Young Master, you can't do that. It's our family's honor that Yuxi can help you. Previously, Young Master has brought so many benefits to our family. You can't ask for such a high salary from Young Master."
Li Zexuan said, "Uncle Han, what I want to discuss with you is not about money. I want to ask if you are willing to let Yuxi help me make a new wine. As for the money, if Yuxi is willing to help me, she deserves it. Once the new wine is made, the profit will be far greater than this small amount of money. Please don't refuse."
When Han Lizheng heard this, he finally thought of the crux of the problem. His daughter was still an unmarried daughter. Although the villagers would not be as particular as those wealthy families, if his daughter were to appear in public to help the young master make a wine, it would inevitably cause gossip. However, his family had received so many favors from the young master's family. Now that it was rare for him to be able to help the young master, it was really difficult to refuse. Han Lizheng was also in a dilemma for a moment, so he might as well give the choice to his daughter.
"Yuxi, are you willing to help the young master make a wine? I respect your decision. "Han Lizheng's tone was somewhat solemn.
When Han Yuxi heard that she could help the young master, she was only excited and did not think so much. Now that she saw her father's solemn expression, she realized that things were not as simple as she thought. She was a girl. If she agreed to help the young master, she would definitely not be able to avoid getting along with him day and night. It would easily cause gossip.
However, it was rare for her to have the opportunity to help the young master. She really did not want to refuse. Moreover, she did not hate working with the young master. She even had some faint expectations in her heart.
Han Yuxi gritted her teeth and said, "Father, I want to help the young master make a wine."
Even though she knew that she should not do this, Han Yuxi still could not bear to refuse the young master's request for help. As long as I can help the young master, let others gossip if they want to, Han Yuxi thought in her heart.
Han Lizheng sighed softly in his heart. Ever since Li Zexuan left the Han family manor last time, he realized that there was something wrong with his daughter. However, as a father, it was really difficult for him to speak about a girl's private matters. If only the child's mother was still alive. Sigh, he hoped that his daughter would not regret it in the end and would have a good ending!
"Young master, since Yuxi has agreed, then this old man has no objections."
Li Zexuan did not think as much as the father and daughter. He was still in the mindset of a modern person. He did not think that there was anything wrong with letting Han Yuxi help him make a wine. However, he also noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange. When he heard Han Lizheng's words, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart and cup his hands to thank him.
"Uncle Han, there is one more thing. Iron Egg told me yesterday that he wants to be my disciple and wants me to teach him martial arts. You are his father, so I thought that this kind of thing should only be done with your consent."
"Ah, this … this!" Han Lizheng was a little shocked. He secretly thought that Iron Egg, this stinky brat, even knew how to find someone to be his disciple? He looked at Iron Egg in surprise. At this time, Iron Egg had his head down and was counting ants. He was quite courageous when he wanted to be his disciple, but after that, being looked at by his father like this, this brat also felt a little embarrassed.
"I heard that the young master also has a famous master. Iron Egg can be your disciple, it is his good fortune. As long as the young master does not think that this brat is stupid, of course I will agree!" Han Lizheng thought about it and said with some gratitude.
His son's future following the young master was obviously better than playing in the mud in the countryside. Which father did not want his son to be successful? In the past, he could not even take care of his children's food and clothing. Naturally, he did not have the time to think about his son's future. Now that there was such a good opportunity, of course he would agree.
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "Since Uncle Han has agreed, then after two days when I am done with the matters at hand, Iron Egg will follow me back to Chang 'an to study martial arts."
Han Lizheng solemnly bowed and said gratefully, "Thank you, young master, for promoting this stinky brat. If this brat is disobedient in the future, young master, feel free to scold and discipline him. If he is beaten to death, he deserves it. This old man will not say a word. "
Li Zexuan smiled and shook his head. He said, "Uncle Han, this time I came to the Han Village because there is a very important matter that I need to discuss with you."
Han Lizheng saw that he was serious and asked in confusion, "Young master, what is it?"
