Chapter 596 Brother, You Have Really Grown Up
The fact that the old prince and Jiang Yubai personally went out of the city to welcome them was already a great honor to the Xu family.
Knowing that the Xu family had just arrived and had a lot of things to settle down in, Jiang Yubai specifically told Xu Yu when they parted ways outside the city gate that they would see each other in three days.
Giving Xu Yu three more days to rest is already the limit of the young prince's patience.
If Jiang Yubai hadn't been concerned about the other members of the Xu family watching, he would have wanted to tie Xu Yu up on the spot.
Otherwise this bastard will find another opportunity to slack off!
After shaking off Jiang Yubai, who was like a dog-skin plaster, Xu Yu finally walked into the door of his home where he might be staying for a long time.
Apart from some suspected mistakes in his conduct towards men and women, Xu Minghui has always been calm and thoughtful in his work and rarely makes major mistakes.
He considered for a long time the residence of the Xu family after they arrived in Lingnan, and only chose a place after considering many possible factors.
Even though they didn't have time to take a closer look, a quick glance at it made those who were originally worried feel much more at ease.
Much better than expected.
Xu Minghui explained: "The front door is small, which makes it look a little stingy, but being small has its advantages."
From the outside alone, this house looks like a small structure with two entrances and exits, but the world inside is different.
Xu Minghui pointed to the gates on both sides and said, "I bought the houses on both sides. After connecting them, it will be equivalent to eight complete courtyards of different sizes."
"There's a front and back courtyard inside the main house, and three smaller ones on each side, east and west. You can usually enter and exit each courtyard through the main gate here, but if you find it troublesome, you can also enter and exit through the side doors behind each courtyard."
Judging from the size carefully, Xu Minghui bought a house that is half the width of the street here.
But if you don't go inside, no one outside can see what's going on inside, and there's a high probability that they would mistakenly think that these families are just ordinary neighbors and would not think of any deeper connection.
Taking into account the fact that there were many female members in the family, Xu Minghui also made changes to the structures of several affiliated hospitals.
Tinghua Courtyard, where Xu Yu and Sang Zhixia lived, lay between the main courtyard and the other three subsidiary courtyards, acting as a partition, keeping the female family members who might not be willing to show up in public often in a more secluded and quiet place.
Xu Wenxiu and Xu Jinxi lived together.
Aunt Xu lives in one place.
The other place was for Liu Qingfang to live alone in a courtyard.
Even if there are guests coming and going, or Xu Yu and Sang Zhixia need to do something at home, the noise outside will not disturb the people inside.
As for the three courtyards on the other side, they do not need so much shelter.
Xu Minghui smiled and said, "Mingyang, Yanyou, Chen Yun, and the others are all grown up. Together with Mingxu and the others, we just happen to live in the same courtyard. It's convenient for us to study or practice martial arts, and we can also keep each other company. The other place is Yanran's."
Xu Minghui obviously knew that Xu Yanran had an excellent talent for studying medicine and poison with Mr. Hu and Mr. Qi. He paused and said, "It is said that a girl's yard should be deep in the garden to avoid being disturbed. A secluded place is best."
"But Yanran, if you really want to learn some skills, you can't just hide in your boudoir."
No matter how much you read in books, it is not as good as personal experience.
Long before they set off, Mr. Hu asked Xu Minghui to help him find a suitable place to open a clinic.
As Mr. Hu's direct disciple, Xu Yanran naturally had to go out with him to diagnose illnesses and prescribe medicines. It would not be good if it was too secluded.
Xu Minghui's thoughts coincided with Xu Yanran's.
Xu Yanran smiled generously and said sweetly, "Thank you, second brother."
"As long as you are satisfied."
Xu Minghui gently touched Xu Yanran's head and continued, "The east side of the courtyard is separated by my eldest brother and sister-in-law's Tinghua Courtyard, so it's quiet and undisturbed. As for the west side, I can only ask my third uncle and aunt to take care of it. Living closer, they can focus more on keeping an eye on the little ones."
"Do you think the outermost auditorium is okay, Uncle San and Aunt San?"
"become!"
"Why wouldn't this be possible?"
Aunt Xu said with a smile, "Before we came, we had planned to squeeze into one courtyard. I didn't expect you to arrange it so thoughtfully. Everything is fine."
Xu Yanran is old enough and should live in a separate courtyard.
The couple were close to each other, and with Xu Mingyang and his group of little wolf cubs protecting them, Xu Yanran felt safe everywhere.
Aunt Xu was so satisfied that she kept praising it, and the old man and the others were also very satisfied with Xu Minghui's arrangement.
The main room is spacious, and the three elders in the family can live together without feeling lonely.
But the place is really big, and taking care of the flowers and plants in each courtyard is a big job, so it would be inappropriate if we don't add more people.
Xu Minghui didn't make the decision himself on this matter. Instead, he said, "The house has been specially cleaned, and the furnishings and appliances have all been replaced. It's very convenient to live in right away. I've already asked someone to inquire about hiring servants, but they haven't been decided yet."
"I thought I'd wait until Auntie and Third Auntie arrived, then take a closer look and choose."
"There's still a long way to go. There's no need to rush."
Xu Wenxiu and others nodded in agreement, feeling tired from the long journey. They returned to their respective rooms according to their assigned yards to rest.
Sang Zhixia was not idle.
In opening a farm in Lingnan, Xu Minghui took every step steadily, but the reason why he was able to take such steady steps was because Sang Zhixia had been giving him advice behind the scenes.
The farm has grown in size, and nothing in it has ever passed Sang Zhixia's attention. In fact, Xu Minghui himself is also nervous and not very confident.
Nuonuo and Yuanbao were both tired, so Xu Yu carried them into the house to sleep.
Sang Zhixia watched Xu Minghui take out a box of account books that he had prepared long ago, and said with a smile: "I've seen all the ones you sent back before. Isn't it done very well?"
"Actually, you don't have to give me such detailed instructions. If you think it's okay, then do it as you wish. Don't I trust you to do things?"
Xu Minghui said sternly, "That won't work either."
"The farm is my sister-in-law's property. I'm just helping out. Since I've done something, there should be traces of it. I have to wait for my sister-in-law to review it before deciding anything else."
Xu Minghui's murderous intention towards Xu Yu has not diminished over the years and has grown stronger day by day.
But in front of Sang Zhixia, he is a gentle and good brother who is reliable, considerate and considerate.
If Sang Zhixia is not around, then he can overcome all difficulties and handle everything on his own with ease.
But if Sang Zhixia were still alive, he would always ask Sang Zhixia's opinion before anything else and would never make decisions on his own.
This kind of self-awareness should have made Sang Zhixia feel fortunate, but now she only found it funny: "Brother, you have really grown up."
Xu Minghui remained calm.
Sang Zhixia suppressed a smile and said, "Even if you just want to keep your eldest brother busy, there's no need to rush over to deliver the account books, right?"
Everyone in the family knew that although Xu Yu was not in charge of the farm and the shop, anything that Sang Zhixia could not finish in a short time would be handled by Xu Yu.
Sang Zhixia just arrived in Lingnan today and has not had time to catch her breath. Xu Yu will definitely not watch her suffer.
These things were said to be sent for Sang Zhixia to see, but what's the difference between that and just grabbing them and smashing them in Xu Yu's face?
