Abandoned daughter reborn, legitimate son is resourceful

"The wind and snow have been quite strong these days, so you'd better not go out, okay?"

Chu Xiaoran was standing by the window, looking at the howling snow and wind outside. He had just pulled down the window. A charcoal fire had already been lit in the room. It was pitch dark, making people feel a little suffocated.

"I know, I know, you should stop worrying about me."

When Chu Xiaoran turned around, he saw Nan Jinming who was already wrapped in a quilt on the bed.

I don’t know what Nan Jinming has been busy with these days. He always goes out early and comes back late, and he is nowhere to be seen during the day.

"Don't always say you know and then you don't listen."

Nan Jinming was lying on the bed, touching his forehead. It was true that people are shaped by the environment they live in. He had been here for such a long time, but had not yet adapted to this environment.

"Okay, okay, get up and drink some water."

Nan Jinming felt a little dizzy this afternoon, so he came back a little early, lay down and slept for a while. When he woke up, it was dark.

"I should be fine, right?"

Chu Xiaoran came to the edge of the bed with the warm water in his hand, and looked at Nan Jinming beside him, who supported himself with his elbows and put his face in front of him.

"It's nothing serious, I'm just overworked lately. What have you been busy with recently? And you don't want to tell me."

"I'm just afraid that you'll worry. I'm not busy with anything. I just want to move some of Yeguo's industries here so that it will be more convenient to withdraw money in the future."

"I see. I was wondering if you were hiding something from me and didn't want to tell me."

Nan Jinming took the cup of water, took a sip and moistened his throat. After sleeping for a whole afternoon, his throat was a little dry. When he woke up, there was no one else beside him except Chu Xiaoran.

"Have you had dinner?"

"I've already eaten. Are you hungry?"

"A little hungry."

Nan Jinming drank all the water in the cup and then handed it back to Chu Xiaoran.

I don’t have any property in Yu Country now, so it will take some time to open a store in Xuecheng. So I have been busy recently thinking about how to open a store.

But now it’s snowing and the supplies over there can’t be moved over quickly, so we can only settle the store matters for the time being.

"The snow and wind here seem to last for several months. No wonder there are only a lot of beef and mutton here. What kind of food can be grown in this weather? That's really strange."

Nan Jinming complained out loud, but he had some plans in mind.

It is said that grain from the south will be sold to the north. If you open some grain warehouses and shops yourself, maybe your business will be very good, because the original grain shops are monopolized. If the price you sell is reasonable and affordable, your business will probably be very good.

"These are not our concerns. What kind of shop do you want to open?"

Chu Xiaoran seldom gets involved in business matters on weekdays. Although he had learned some things when he was in Yuecheng, he still hadn't mastered all of them.

The main reason was that Nan Jinming was afraid of getting too tired, so he asked others to help him and was not familiar with the entire process.

"Open a few rice shops?"

"It's fine."

Chu Xiaoran smiled and nodded. Nan Jinming still had some business acumen.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Did you leave dinner for me?"

Nan Jinming touched his stomach with a feeling of grievance. He had slept for such a long time and only drank a few sips of water. How could this fill him up?

It was snowing so hard and windy outside, and she couldn't bear to ask her dear husband to get her food.

Nan Jinming struggled for a long time, but finally got up from the bed, threw off the quilt, took a cloak from the hanger next to him, and wrapped himself in it.

"Let me get it for you. There's dinner warmed up in the kitchen."

Chu Xiaoran also felt sorry for her. She was too tired these days. In the afternoon, she just lay on the bed and fell asleep in a short while.

Later, I thought of checking on him during dinner to see if he had woken up, but it turned out that Nan Jinming was already sleeping soundly.

"No, no, it's too cold outside. Go to bed and warm the quilt for me. I'll be back soon."

Nan Jinming said this as he opened the door and walked out, closing the door considerately, then walked towards the kitchen with the lantern in his hand.

The servants outside had already gone back to their rooms to rest, except for a few who were on night watch.

When he saw Nan Jinming, he greeted him and then continued to do his own thing.

When I came to the kitchen, I saw Yan Boxi doing something quietly in the kitchen?

"Yan Boxi, what are you doing so late at night?"

Yan Boxi was startled and the spoon in his hand fell into the pot with a plop. Then he reacted and quickly scooped up the contents of the pot.

"Master, why are you so scary?"

"What are you doing here so late at night?"

Nan Jinming looked at the black stuff in the pot with some disgust, not knowing what it was.
