Chapter 1070 Daily Life
It was almost noon before he slowly got up.
Liqiu and Lixia took care of the household chores very well and even bought vegetables.
Songshi sat lazily under the eaves of the east wing, eating melon seeds to pass the time.
Shao Yunduan was only a seventh-rank editor, so it was impossible for him to bring an attendant with him to work. After Song Shi sent him to the Hanlin Academy every day, he had nothing to do.
Seeing how idle he was, Qiao Xuan thought to herself that she should open a shop or buy some land to start a business, so that Song Shi could have a place to run errands and do odd jobs. Otherwise, he would always be idle. It might be fine for a day or two, but it would not be a solution for a long time.
However, Qiao Xuan was worried about letting him go out and wander around when he had nothing to do.
Who knows if he will be tempted into doing bad things?
He was only a boy of about ten years old. When he first came to the extremely prosperous city like the capital, it would be easy for him to be dazzled and intoxicated by the sight.
He is close to Shao Yunduan and cannot afford to take the risk.
Having made up her mind, Qiao Xuan planned to go back and discuss with Shao Yunduan about buying a small shop to test the waters, and then decide what kind of business to start.
Anyway, she doesn't rely on this to make a living.
Qiao Xuan got up late, so she just ate breakfast and lunch together to save trouble. She didn't have much appetite at the moment, so she just asked Lixia to cook a bowl of noodles with shrimp, meat slices, mushrooms and vegetables.
The wheat in the north grows well, and the noodles are handmade, so they are very chewy. Qiao Xuan, who originally had no appetite, suddenly had a big appetite and ate a big bowl. Uh, maybe I consumed too much energy yesterday, so I need to replenish it.
Who would have thought that just after I finished a big bowl of noodles and was strolling in the yard looking at the flowers and plants to digest the food, someone knocked on the door.
Songshi finally got the job done, and he went to open the door in high spirits.
The person who came was an old woman with a maid. She looked respectable enough, but her expression was a little arrogant. She looked at Song Shi with pride and disdain.
Song Shi secretly pouted in his heart, but he did not dare to retaliate, fearing that he would delay his masters' work. He just pretended not to see the ugly face and smiled and said, "Oh, I wonder where this nanny of yours is from?"
The old woman snorted: "I am from the Qiao family. Your wife knows me. Why don't you call her over?"
Song Shi was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled and looked a little lazy. Fearing that he had killed someone by mistake, he asked, "Which Qiao family? The Qiao family in Liuzhi Hutong, West Sixth Street?"
The old woman snorted: "That's exactly it!"
Oh, then there won't be any accidental killing.
Song Shi's smile suddenly fell, and he said lazily: "Okay, wait for me, I'll report it right away!"
After saying that, he slammed the courtyard door shut, not considering the reactions and feelings of the two women at all, and hurried over to say, "Madam, the Qiao family is so shameless that they have another person coming. What should we do?"
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "Since you're here, let's meet them. Ask them to come in."
She clapped her hands and turned to go into the house.
It's impossible not to see them, and if I don't see them they will just keep pestering me.
I guess Qiao Hongxi told Shao Yunduan what he saw in the Hanlin Academy?
The Qiao family arrived quite quickly.
Song Shi agreed, and had no intention of ignoring the old woman, so he went to open the door.
The old woman was startled by his sudden slamming of the door. When she saw him, she glared at him fiercely and said coldly, "Where is our Second Miss? The Master and the Madam specially sent me here to talk, and this is how Second Miss treats her? Does she still care about filial piety? Does Master Shao Wu still care about filial piety?"
