Next to the bookshelf in the front, two pots of silver wire charcoal were burning, and the whole room was warm.

He is reviewing the strategy questions of the past years, and the palace exams are going to take the strategy questions. In order to prepare for the exam, he has been concentrating on reviewing these recently.

Liu Shun glanced in and saw that he was seriously reviewing, so he didn't dare to disturb him.

It wasn't until Xiao Sheng put down the pen and paper and stood up to move his muscles that Liu Shun hurriedly walked in and replied, "Master, the steward who went to Yangzhou has already rushed back. See you now?"

A few years ago, after discovering that Pei Xing was so interested in Zhong Li, Xiao Sheng sent Steward Qin to leave the capital. Seeing that he finally came back, his dull mood was a little better.

Pei Xing is no better than others. The people who are sent to his room, Xiao Sheng naturally needs to be in the palm of his hand. After all, in recent years, it is not that the emperor and ministers have not given him beauty, but he has refused all of them without exception.

Xiao Sheng straightened his sleeves, "Let the steward bring people in through the west door, and don't disturb others."

Ximen's wife-in-law, who belonged to Xiao Sheng, would never say anything that shouldn't be said.

Not long after, steward Qin brought two beauties to Qingsongtang.

These two girls are both wearing veils, although they can't see their true faces, when they walk slowly, their graceful posture and lotus posture are all attractive. After they take off their veils, two gorgeous little girls The face was exposed.

Both of them are among the top beauties in Yangzhou. In order to buy them, the steward almost spent all his money.

One is a charming and charming style. The girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her eyes are full of admiration. When she saw Xiao Sheng, she curled her lips lazily and said softly: "The little girl has seen the son."

Her voice is numb, and indescribably hooking. With this voice alone, she can capture the hearts of many men, not to mention she is beautiful.

She twisted her hips, blessed Xiao Shengfu, and leaned into his arms, "The slave family has always been curious, who spent a lot of money to buy the slave family, and now I see you, I know what a talented person is, with extraordinary bearing, can serve you, It's really a blessing from the slave family's previous life."

Before she could get close to Xiao Sheng, she was stopped by Liu Shun, "Bold! If the young master really intends, he will let you bathe and change clothes, and the girl should be respectful."

Yingying chuckled, knowing that the Gaomen mansion had a lot of rules, but she was obedient, she gave Xiao Sheng a wink, and did not go forward.

The other girl was also young, she was born extremely beautiful, her face was like a hibiscus, her body was like a water snake, she was pure and charming. After receiving the blessing, he only called softly, "Young Master."

In order to buy her, steward Qin almost broke his leg. He looked at Xiao Sheng with a smile, and said, "This girl is called Ting'er, and she is the most similar one that a slave can find. Is your son still satisfied?"

Xiao Sheng's eyes fell on Ting'er.

The girl drooped her eyelashes, her cheeks were dyed a little crimson, and her white and tender hands were unconsciously twisted together. She is also very beautiful, and she has a different style from Yingying. She is so beautiful that it does not leak. The more shy she is, the more people can't help teasing her.

Liu Shun could vaguely see Li's shadow on her body for a minute or two. He couldn't help being a little stunned, and it wasn't until this moment that he understood why the master was so urgent.

Xiao Sheng ignored the steward Qin's words, and his eyes stayed on the girl's face for a moment, a little dissatisfied. What he wanted was not one or two points of similarity, if he wanted to replace Li sister, he had to be like seven or eight points.

He also knew in his heart that he looked like Zhong Li, and he was afraid that he could not find a second person after searching all over the world. Fortunately, there was still time, and the other beauty was not bad.

With a two-pronged approach, he did not believe that Pei Xing would be indifferent.

Xiao Sheng didn't look any further, "Take the person down and put them in the west wing for the time being."

After the steward led the people out, Xiao Sheng said to Liu Shun: "You can find a nanny to teach them the rules. As for Ting'er, you have to do it yourself. There are ten days until the third uncle's birthday. A transformation."

He asked Liu Shun to listen to him, and gave a few key instructions. The more Liu Shun listened, the more solemn his heart became. How could that person from Zhaixing Pavilion be a good imitator? If he didn't learn the same way, he didn't know if the master would take anger on him. Now he just hoped that Ting'er would be able to live up to his expectations.

Picking Star Pavilion.

After the stove was built, the masters retreated. At this time, the sun just fell into the west, and the twilight gradually closed.

Cheng'er was thinking about the stove, and went to the west wing to see something fresh.

Zhong Li also came out to take a look. She had been a little dizzy all day, until now, the smile on her face became more, "Tomorrow, will I make shrimp dumplings for Cheng'er? Bao Cheng'er likes it. Plum dumplings."

Cheng'er couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

At this time, Qingsong walked in. Recently, he often left early and returned late, and sometimes stayed directly in the shop. When he returned today, he had a smile on his face.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Qiuyue joked: "People who don't like to laugh on weekdays have a smile on their faces. What kind of happy event did they meet?"

Qing Song coughed lightly and touched the tip of his nose. He does have good news. After searching for a long time, he finally found a suitable shopkeeper.

Knowing that he has something to report to the master, he came here just now, and Qiuyue did not continue joking, "The master and the young master are in the west wing, I will report, you can wait a while."

Qingsong nodded, "Miss Xie Qiuyue."

Zhong Li had already heard their conversation. She walked out of the west wing and asked with a smile, "But is there a candidate for a new shopkeeper?"

Qing Song nodded and briefly introduced the shopkeeper Li.

Shopkeeper Li originally worked as a shopkeeper in a jade shop. He has more than ten years of experience. Last year, when he went to the wharf to inspect the goods, he broke his leg and took a three-month leave. The owner found a new shopkeeper. The shopkeeper who came here is somewhat related by marriage to the owner. By the time Shopkeeper Li recovers from his injury, the new shopkeeper will have already established himself.

The owner gave him a compensation and dismissed him. During his years as a shopkeeper, he had no bad habit of enriching his own pockets. Qingsong had talked to him twice and admired his style of doing things.
