"These are my parents. There are two young masters in the family. You guys should get to know each other first. I bought you back. As long as you do your own things honestly, I won't treat you unfairly. If some of you try to be clever, it's better not to let me find out, otherwise..." Han Xiao didn't say the rest of the words, but just squinted his eyes and looked at them.
Several people shuddered at the same time. They seemed to be getting along well with their new boss just now, so how come he changed his attitude so quickly?
Han Xiao looked at the fear in their eyes with satisfaction, and then continued, "Alright, go down and wash yourselves first and then come back. We have distinguished guests coming today, so make sure you are well-groomed before you go out."
"Yes, young master." The seven people said in unison.
Han Xiao felt a chill when he heard the word "Young Master".
Han's mother felt a little sorry to see them still wearing thin clothes, so she took out all the old clothes that Han Xiao and Han Mingyuan didn't wear in the room and gave them to them.
The cook wore Han's mother's clothes, the little boy wore Han Yu'er's clothes, and only the big man and the two maids had no clothes to wear. Han's mother had no choice but to make do with her own clothes for the time being, and then she would go to the cloth shop to buy some.
The few of them had just arrived in the new environment and were very quick to act. By the afternoon, they had all tidied themselves up, and the big man even cut his hair short.
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and thought that foreigners probably didn't have hair or skin on their bodies.
Looking at the people standing in front of him, Han Xiao said softly, "Tell me your names."
At this time, the big man was the first to stand up: "Xing Yi, this is my wife Xia Xuesong, and my son Xing Bai."
After saying that, he retreated with his wife and children. Han Xiao nodded: "Xing Yi, you will follow me from now on."
Xing Yi nodded without saying anything, just put his arm around Xia Xuesong's shoulders.
Seeing Xing Yi finished speaking, Gu Yunsheng walked out tremblingly: "Humble... humble Gu Yunsheng, greets the young master, the master, and the madam."
"You will follow the master from now on." Han Xiao settled the person down. Han Mingyuan was puzzled. He was old and didn't need a servant.
"Dad, Gu Yunsheng can read and write. I found him specially for you. If you have any problems in the future, just tell him." Han Mingyuan thought so and did not refuse.
Seeing so many people there, Han's mother wondered how much it would cost.
The two maids were named Huangli and Cuiying, both of which were birds. Han Xiao thought it was interesting so he didn't change their names and kept them. They followed his mother from then on.
Needless to say, the cook will have to cook more meals in the future, so Han's mother can no longer cook. The cook's husband is responsible for both the doorman and the daily kitchen purchases, as he has experience in this.
Han Xiao was not afraid that these people had bad intentions. If he really found out, he would just sell them off and get another batch.
It's just that Xing Yi's wife Xia Xuesong currently has no suitable job. Just when Han Xiao was thinking about it, Xia Xuesong came out and said that he was good at needlework.
Han Xiao just let him follow Han's mother. Han's mother looked worried when she saw that so many people were under her care. She had never dealt with such a thing before.
After Han Xiao finished his explanation, he threw the matter to Han Mingyuan and Han's mother. The two watched Han Xiao leave and then glared at the rest of the people.
Han Mingyuan had no choice but to ask them to clean the house quickly and then wait for Mr. Qinghe to come.
Han's mother took the cook and Xia Xuesong to the kitchen to help. Mr. Qinghe must not be perfunctory when it comes to cooking.
After working for the whole afternoon, Mr. Qinghe finally arrived with the child in the evening.
Mr. Qinghe was also a little surprised when he saw where his student lived. In his impression, Han Mingyuan's family background did not seem to be very good.
As soon as Mr. Qinghe arrived outside the door, Han Mingyuan came jogging down with his clothes in his hand, and Gu Yunsheng almost couldn't keep up with him.
"Teacher." Han Mingyuan bent down and bowed deeply.
Mr. Qinghe reached out and helped him up: "Why are you making such a fuss? I just came over to take a look."
"The students were so excited to see the teacher coming." Han Mingyuan's eyes were a little red.
"Mr. Qinghe, Dad, why don't we go inside and talk? It's quite cold outside." Han Xiao couldn't help but remind them when he saw that the teacher and student were about to hug each other.
"Yes, yes, yes, teacher, please come in quickly. I have prepared some dishes that you may like. Please come and try them."
As he helped Mr. Qinghe into the house, Han's mother was already waiting in the living room, looking helpless.
Seeing that Han's mother was so nervous, Xia Xuesong couldn't help but comfort her softly: "Madam, you just need to relax."
When Xia Xuesong first heard that Mr. Qinghe was coming, he was very surprised. He didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary Han family was actually related to Mr. Qinghe.
"Yes, Xuesong, see if there is anything inappropriate, let's change it quickly." Han's mother was just a peasant woman in the countryside. She really couldn't relax in front of a great scholar like Mr. Qinghe.
"No, ma'am, you have done a great job, and the master is very satisfied."
Mother Han nodded, but she was still a little worried and could only pace around anxiously.
Seeing Mr. Qinghe and Han Mingyuan come in together, Han's mother hurriedly took Xuesong out to greet them: "Mr. Qinghe."
Mr. Qinghe nodded: "You must be Mingyuan's wife."
Mother Han didn't dare to raise her head: "Yes."
Han Mingyuan looked at his wife's nervous expression, walked over to his mother and took her hand: "Teacher, this is my wife Chunniang, Chunniang is my teacher."
Han's mother looked at Han Mingyuan in disbelief. Why did he call him teacher?
But even after her husband had spoken, Han's mother still stammered, "Teacher Qinghe."
Mr. Qinghe laughed heartily after hearing this: "I can see that Han Xiao looks like you."
Han Mingyuan looked at his teacher helplessly. He really had no burden in front of people he was familiar with.
"Teacher, please take a seat quickly, or the food will get cold."
Today's meals were all prepared under Han Xiao's supervision. The new cook has good cooking skills, and with Han Xiao's guidance, Han Xiao was drooling just looking at the meals she prepared.
Mr. Qinghe took a quick look. He had eaten all kinds of delicious food before coming to the Han family, so he thought it was just an ordinary home-cooked meal. However, he didn't expect that many of the dishes on the table were things he had never seen before.
I couldn't help but become curious: "Why haven't I seen this kind of food before?"
Han Mingyuan picked up the serving chopsticks and served food to Mr. Qinghe: "Teacher, please try it. These are all Han Xiao's methods. They taste pretty good."
Mr. Qinghe took a bite, and his eyes lit up. Mr. Qinghe was already quite old, and he couldn't eat much because of his light diet.
He didn't expect that he could taste different flavors here, and they were something he had never tasted before. He had been to Yipinlou in Beijing before and had eaten there for a while, but he felt that these dishes had never appeared in Yipinlou.
Mr. Qinghe took a few more bites with his chopsticks, and sure enough, they were all new dishes.
