Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

Watching the bus Qin Huairu was on slowly go away, Han Li couldn't help but sigh: "What a woman who is suitable to be a wife. I am increasingly reluctant to let her go!"

No matter it was Qin Huairu's obedience and unconditional cooperation, or the nervous and exciting feeling lingering in his heart, they all made Han Li like Qin Huairu even more, and he developed a greedy desire to make her his own.

If you think about it carefully, Qin Huairu is just short-sighted due to the influence of her upbringing, and she has never made any mistakes in principle.

In addition, she is the first woman Han Li has met since he traveled through time. Both publicly and privately, she should be given a chance to prevent her from jumping into the big fire pit of the Jia family.

However, as the saying goes, a good horse never turns back, and Han Li felt uncomfortable about Qin Huairu's cancellation of the engagement.

Secondly, everyone in the hospital now knows that Qin Huairu is Jia Dongxu's fiancée. If Han Li intervenes at this time, he will definitely get into endless trouble.

At that time, not only will the Han family's good reputation be ruined, but they will also have to face moral sanctions headed by Yi Zhonghai.

After thinking about it, there is no perfect solution. I can only temporarily put aside my complicated thoughts and think about it when I have time.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at Lou's house. Han Li could even clearly feel that the nanny who opened the door today was a little cold and had none of the enthusiasm she had yesterday.

It's normal if you think about it. He was supposed to come after lunch, but he was several hours late. Even the best-tempered person would probably be angry.

After a body search, we went to the study on the second floor.

When the call was connected, I could still faintly hear the little girl sobbing. I guess she must have just been crying.

Han Li felt guilty and quickly explained on the phone: "I'm really sorry, I happened to be late because my family was moving today."

"That's all right. Let's start the story."

Han Li could naturally hear that Tan Xiaoli on the other end of the phone was upset, but it was not a big problem and there was still a chance to make amends.

Then, Han Li adapted the joke about "thick fish balls and noodles" that he had thought of on the way to warm up the atmosphere;

Xiaohong: Boss, please, I'd like a bowl of fish ball noodles.

Boss: No rough noodles.

Xiaohong: Then give me a bowl of fish ball rice noodle.

Boss: No fish balls.

Xiaohong: Then I’ll have a bowl of beef tripe noodles.

Boss: No rough noodles.

Xiaohong complained: How dare you open a store when you have nothing?

Sure enough, after the joke was told, the mother and daughter on the other end of the phone laughed out loud at the same time.

Hearing this, Han Li slowly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter of being late was over.

When Han Li finished telling a story, the nanny regained her warm smile and brought him a cup of tea.

On the way, Han Li thought that the afternoon was long and he had to tell longer stories. Otherwise, he would be tired after telling one story and then switching to the next.

Afterwards, Han Li began to vividly tell the story of "The Cornucopia", the legendary story of how Shen Wansan, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, became rich.

Han Li had some selfish motives in telling this story. He hoped to guide Lou Xiao'e through this story. As for how much Lou Xiao'e could understand, it depended on her own luck.

But I have to say that the story of "Cornucopia" is indeed long, and Han Li has not finished it even after almost an hour of telling.

But everyone knows how exciting the story is. The plot is gripping, tense and exciting. Shen Wansan always manages to turn danger into safety in critical moments, and his unexpected tricks often amaze the mother and son.

The mother and son on the other end of the phone were so engrossed in listening that they didn't even notice that Lou Bancheng, the head of the family, had returned.

"Life is nothing more than eating and sleeping. When you open your eyes, you open your mouth; when you close your eyes, you open your bed. Put aside your greed, operate legally, and benefit yourself and the people."

This word was changed by Han Li. After all, it is not very appropriate to talk about life and death to a little girl in her teens.

Besides, the Lou family is a merchant family, and it would be impolite to say words like black-hearted.

Since there was a loudspeaker next to the telephone receiver, Lou Bancheng heard these words when he entered the room.

At this time, Tan Xiaoli noticed that her husband had returned, and hurriedly said to the phone: "Xiao Han, have some tea and take a rest first, I'll call you back later."

At the same time, Lou Xiaoe also shouted excitedly: "Dad~"

Seeing his daughter's face full of joy, Lou Zhenhua was in a good mood. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What interesting story did Ezi hear just now? Let Dad listen to it too."

"I heard Brother Xiao Han tell the story of the Treasure Plate. It's really interesting."

As a businessman, Lou Bancheng naturally knew the meaning of "cornucopia". At first he thought it was a story to educate children and did not take it seriously, but his daughter's next words instantly caught his attention.

Lou Xiao'e said excitedly: "Dad, the Cornucopia tells the story of Shen Wansan's rise to wealth. Shen Wansan was very smart and eventually became the richest man in the Ming Dynasty. He was even more powerful than you, Dad."

Having been engaged in business for many years, Lou Zhenhua naturally knew Shen Wansan. He heard that when Shen Wansan was at his most glorious, he had "huge assets and land all over the world." To this day, stories about Shen Wansan's business are still circulating in many places.

"Not bad, very good!" Perhaps he was happy with his daughter, or maybe he found some sense of identity in the story of "Cornucopia", in any case, Boss Lou was in a good mood.

Lou Zhenhua thought for a moment and said, "Wife, go ask someone to prepare dinner. It should be something sumptuous. Well, let's have Tan's cuisine."

Soon, Tan Xiaoli went to arrange things, leaving the father and daughter talking and laughing happily.

In fact, Lou Zhenhua's test of Han Li had already begun since yesterday morning.

When he entered the room, Boss Lou deliberately revealed several important business information while making a phone call, but it turned out that the news did not leak out from Han Li's mouth.

Even Lou Bancheng suspected that he might be flirting with a blind man, or that Han Li was extremely cautious and unwilling to take risks easily.

But then Lou Zhenhua left Han Li alone in the study. As long as Han Li opened the drawer on his left hand side, he would find not only a large amount of cash but also some important documents.

Boss Lou caught a strand of hair between the gaps of the drawer, but when he went back the hair did not fall off, proving that Han Li did not have the greed to open the drawer on the left at that time.

Afterwards, Lou Bancheng arranged for someone to follow Han Li to see what a poor man would do after suddenly becoming rich, which could definitely reveal a person's character.

What surprised Lou Bancheng was that after Han Li received a huge sum of money, he just ate a bowl of noodles with soybean paste and then went straight into the Xinhua Bookstore.

In short, judging from the results of the current investigation, Han Li does not have any other special identity, has a good background, is diligent and willing to learn, and is a good candidate.

It can be said that Han Li has passed Boss Lou's test.

In addition, in Lou Zhenhua's heart, Han Li had helped him a lot and he deserved to be treated to a meal.

Han Li, who was in the study room on the second floor, finished his tea and waited for a long time but no phone call came. He was happy to have some free time.

Just as I was about to get up and stretch my muscles, the phone suddenly rang.

"Xiao Han, come up to the third floor."
