Manager Cao felt that his mood along the way was like that of riding a boat or on a windy day. He was up and down, left and right, sad and happy, alive and dead, and he didn't know how he got better.

.

He would press the tea bag on Li Qingyou's knees tightly, not wanting her to put the money back again. The tea bag is his rice bowl, money is his future, and he doesn't want to give up on any of it.

"Huh?" Li Qingyou looked over doubtfully, her eyes scanning his hand that placed the tea bag on her lap.

Manager Cao was also very embarrassed, but he still didn't let go of the hand holding the tea bag. This was his last chance and he didn't want to back down.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and the servant's voice sounded outside, "Miss Li, we're here."

"Okay." Li Qingyou responded and continued to look at Manager Cao. The boy was standing outside the carriage with a wooden board separated by a layer of wood. He couldn't speak, so he could only look over nervously.

Seeing him like this, Li Qingyou suddenly felt a little unbearable. Manager Cao had some minor problems. He was stingy, snobbish, favoring superiors over inferiors, greedy for petty gains, bragging and looking down on others, but he had never done anything to regret her.

.

He did have some thoughts when he carefully stuffed himself with money, but what does it matter? Who in the world doesn't have some thoughts?

On the way to Yuzhou Mansion, he didn't do anything excessive. Thinking of this, Li Qingyou raised his hand and stuffed the money into his purse, and returned the tea bag to Manager Cao.

"You'd better take this bag of tea back. I think you need it more than me." Li Qingyou put the tea bag in Steward Cao's hand and smiled before lifting the curtain and getting out of the carriage.

The boy outside is still the one who has been with Shen San all year round. Li Qingyou remembers that his name is Shen Xiaohu. He is a son of the family and takes the surname of his master's family.

Shen Xiaohu paused for a moment when he saw Li Qingyou, as if he wanted to take a closer look to confirm. When he went to pick her up from Li's house just now, surprise flashed in his eyes when he first saw her.

At this moment, Li Qingyou looked directly at her, her clear eyes were open and clear, which made him afraid to look at her. He scratched his head and pointed to the courtyard door next to him, "Miss Li, please, our third son is waiting for the girl inside."

"

Li Qingyou nodded and walked in the direction he pointed. Although she didn't look back, she could feel that Shen Xiaohu had been looking at her.

Li Qingyou didn't care about this. Now she was no longer afraid of being recognized by the Shen family. If she wanted to be recognized, she would have recognized her a long time ago. If something happened, it would have happened a long time ago. She would never wait until now.

What's more, Shen San still relies on her as the hub to connect with the Wei family. In this case, even if he knows her identity, he will definitely pretend not to know.

In front of him was a rather unique small courtyard, with a green painted gate and two courtyards, and Li Qingyou was taken to the courtyard at the back.

Shen Xiaohu led the way, but Manager Cao did not follow. When he turned the corner, Li Qingyou saw his look of disdain in his eyes, but the moment she looked over, it turned into flattery.

Suddenly regretting his kindness just now, Li Qingyou shook his head, thinking it was funny, and continued to follow Shen Xiaohu.

Young Master Shen was half leaning on the soft couch. There was an incense burner in the corner with smoke rising from it. There was an Eight Immortals table on the floor with various snacks placed on it.

"Third Young Master, Miss Li is here." Shen Xiaohu brought Li Qingyou inside.

Mr. Shen got down from the soft couch, walked to the table, raised his hand towards Li Qingyou, "Miss Li, please sit down." He said that he also sat on a chair.

Li Qingyou also sat down, and Shen Xiaohu helped pour the tea. When his master waved his hand, he turned around and left.

"I heard from Manager Cao that the matter is done." Third Young Master Shen spoke first.

Li Qingyou nodded, and took out the document written with the Wei family and showed it to Mr. Shen.

"Not bad." Mr. Shen looked at Wei Siqi's signature on it and nodded with satisfaction. He then took out the documents he had prepared in advance. This was the same as the Wei family's. It was a unilateral cooperation between the Shen family and Li Qingyou. documents.

After both parties signed and pledged, they talked about opening a racecourse.

Li Qingyou took out the sketch he drew last night and pointed at it to explain one by one, "In addition to the horse farm, this is a pig pen, a chicken coop, a tofu shop...another circle should be built here..."

I wanted to talk about staff dormitories, but the other party probably didn't understand what I meant, and for a while I couldn't think of what to say.

"Servant's room?" Mr. Shen said for her.

Li Qingyou nodded, "Yes, there must be someone permanently stationed in such a large pasture. Don't they say that horses will not be fat without grass at night? They have to be fed at night and so on."

Third Young Master Shen nodded indifferently. He didn't take this small business seriously and didn't even bother to ask. It was just used to contain the Wei family.

"It seems that you already have the regulations in mind, so you don't need to worry about it anymore. I'll send someone to you. You can tell him exactly how much money you need and report it." Mr. Shen picked up the teacup and drank. He said, "But you have to be quick. The foal will arrive before it freezes, and it can't be built before it's finished."

Time is a little tight before the freezing weather. Autumn will begin in two or three days, and a lot of things like choosing a location for the ranch, building a yard, building walls, and recruiting workers have not yet been decided.

"No problem, we will definitely handle it as soon as possible." Li Qingyou nodded and assured.

"Let Manager Cao, who is going to Yuzhou Mansion with you this time, follow you. What do you think?" Third Young Master Shen said, "You are already acquainted, and it is easier to communicate than strangers."

Li Qingyou had no objection, "Let him do it, but you must listen to me on what to do and how to do it."

Third Young Master Shen had no objection, so the matter was settled. The two of them casually exchanged a few words, and Li Qingyou thought it was almost time to leave.

At this moment, the door curtain was raised, and someone came in from the outside. He saw a slim figure in a trance, and before he could reach him, he was greeted by a burst of fragrant powder smell.

No wonder he didn't go to other villages or the Shen family's house in Qingshan County. It seemed that this was an outhouse settled by Shen San. Li Qingyou thought about it and was about to stand up and say goodbye when he suddenly heard a familiar voice. .

"I heard that a guest is coming?" The woman's voice contained a deliberately charming smile, "Who can ask the Third Young Master to personally receive the guests? The slave family also happens to have good eyesight."

This sound...

Li Qingyou looked over in surprise, and happened to face the woman who was almost completely attached to Mr. Shen. Both of them were stunned.

"Qin Xiu?"

"Li Qingyou?"

The two of them spoke almost at the same time. Li Qingyou looked at Qin Xiu in shock. It had been less than a month since he last saw her. Why did she appear here now?
