645 You’ve even learned to take the initiative to attack

Xi Rui thought it made sense.

“Then why don’t I open a car shop and you invest in it?” he said with a smile.

With Shi Qingluo around, he was more at ease and could do whatever he wanted.

Shi Qingluo smiled. “Alright, then I’ll buy a share. When the time comes, we’ll open our car dealerships all over Daliang.”

Xi Rui was full of energy. “Okay, I’ll send someone to find a place to build a workshop tomorrow and a shop for the car dealership.”

“What else do you think I can do next?” he asked.

He wasn’t interested in doing business. When the workshop and the car dealership starts, he would hand them over to a special steward.

He was getting more and more fond of tinkering with new things.

Shi Qing thought for a moment and said, “Last year, Prince Jin arranged for many places to plant white cotton, so there will be a bountiful harvest of white cotton this year.”

“However, the current weaving machines are not suitable for weaving cotton fabrics, so you can make a specialized weaving machine for weaving cotton.”

“We can also modify the existing looms to increase the efficiency of weaving.”

She had previously conducted an investigation and found that although there was cotton cloth available now, due to the small quantity, they were still using traditional hand-woven machines, which made weaving cotton fabrics very laborious and time-consuming.

Fortunately, Xi Rui was good at this area, so he was asked to study the new type of weaving machine carefully.

Xi Rui immediately nodded. “I can do that. I’ll find a few looms to study.”

Shi Qingluo told him about the general principles of the cotton loom that she knew.

Xi Rui noted it all down.

Shi Qingluo was prepared to go back and write a proposal for a car rental agency. She wanted to start it in Northern City as soon as possible.

“I’ll go back and plan for the garage first. Are you guys going back?” she asked.

Xi Rui stole a glance at Xiao Baili, then said to Shi Qingluo, “The tricycle was just built today. I haven’t ridden it properly yet.”

“I brought Erlang to ride it for fun. You can go back first.”

Then, he turned to Xiao Baili and said, “Baili, you’ve never been on this kind of tricycle before. I’ll take you and Erlang for a ride later?”

He was a little nervous, and his palms were sweating. He didn’t know if Baili would agree.

Although it was his family who suggested it, after returning to Northern City, he had spent a lot of time with Xiao Baili recently. He couldn’t help but fall in love with her.

Not only could they play together, but they also had a lot in common.

Xiao Baili looked at his handsome face with a bit of shyness and chuckled. “Alright!”

She looked at him with bright eyes and praised him generously. “Brother Rui, you’re really amazing. You made a tricycle in such a short time.”

She genuinely thought that Xi Rui was talented in this area, just as her sister-in-law had said. A man who could make good use of his strengths and work diligently was very attractive.

Xi Rui’s ears turned a little red, and he felt a surge of indescribable pride and motivation welling up inside him.

This was the first time he had been praised, especially by the girl he liked.

Back when he was in the capital city, those young ladies from wealthy families all thought he was a useless dandy who couldn’t support himself. They wouldn’t even bother to praise him, and would keep their distance whenever they saw him.

Or there were women who were interested in his family background and tried to flatter him by deliberately speaking kindly to him.

He didn’t like those women.

Unlike Baili; he looked at her clear and bright eyes and knew that she was sincerely praising him.

“This is nothing,” he said with a smile.”I’ll work hard to come up with more things that benefit the country and the people in the future.”

Xiao Baili encouraged him proudly, “I believe Brother Rui can do it.”

Xi Rui puffed out his chest. “Yes, I can definitely do it.”

Looking at the two of them like this, Shi Qingluo felt like she had eaten a mouthful of dog food.

She waved her hand. “Then you guys go for a ride. I’ll be leaving first.”

Leaving behind Erlang, who was acting as a tool between Xi Rui and Xiao Baili, she left by herself.

Under the nurturing of her brother, sister-in-law, and future stepfather, Erlang gradually became a black sesame seed stuffing. Coupled with his past, he was very intelligent and smart.

How could he not see the relationship between Xi Rui and his sister?

He actually wanted to go back with his sister-in-law and not be sandwiched between the two of them.

However, for the sake of his sister’s reputation, he could only stay and play with the two of them.

His vacation was gone again. It was all taken up by Brother Rui…

Then, Xi Rui rode the tricycle with Xiao Baili and her brother sitting in the back. He pulled them out of the city for a ride.

Xi Rui had carefully arranged for several layers of cushions to be placed at the back of the seat. The back of the seat was also padded, so it was quite comfortable.

His personal guards rode their bicycles and followed behind to protect them.

Because no one has seen this type of tricycle before, it has become a beautiful scenic spot wherever it passes.

Everyone is curious about what kind of vehicle it is.

Not only could it be ridden by a person, but it could also fetch passengers. It even had three wheels.

After riding out of the city, the chain slipped off.

Xi Rui got out of the car and fiddled with it for a long time before he pressed it on and noted down the areas that needed improvement.

Now that the weather was getting warmer, his forehead was covered in sweat when he fiddled with it for a long time.

He wanted to reach out and wipe with his hands, but realized that his hands were very dirty.

Xiao Baili took out a handkerchief. “Brother Rui, let me help you wipe your sweat.”

Xi Rui was stunned at first and blurted out, “Sure!”

Xiao Baili wiped the sweat off his forehead and face with a handkerchief. “It’s done.”

Smelling the light and comfortable fragrance of the girl’s body, Xi Rui’s face blushed when he was gently wiped off his sweat.

Xiao Baili smiled and teased him. “Brother Rui, why is your face so red all of a sudden?”

Xi Rui blushed even more and pretended to be calm. “Ahem, the sun is too hot today.”

“So it’s because of the sun!” Xiao Baili chuckled.

Xi Rui’s heart raced. “I’m going to wash my hands. Let’s continue the ride.”

Then, he hurriedly asked the guard to let him wash his hands with a water bag to hide his shyness.

The smile in Xiao Baili’s eyes deepened. As her sister-in-law said, Brother Rui was really innocent.

After that, Xi Rui took the two of them for a ride before they rode back to Northern City.

He brought the two of them to a restaurant for dinner before sending them home.

The next day, Xi Rui devoted himself to the research of the cotton loom.

Although he was very busy, he would go to Northern City every day to buy Xiao Baili’s favorite snacks or food and ask his personal attendants to send them to her.

Of course, in order to cover up his little thoughts, he also bought for the other members of the Xiao family.

In the morning, she ate the hot soybean milk and fried dough sticks that Xi Rui had sent over.

Shi Qingluo smiled and said to Xiao Baili, “Xi Rui is quite thoughtful. He’s been sending breakfast, snacks, and food for more than a month.”

“I also think he’s quite thoughtful,” said Xiao Baili with a smile.

“Sister-in-law, why don’t I make some delicious food tomorrow and send it to Brother Rui?”

It would be better for them to develop a relationship with each other.

Shi Qingluo smiled. “He’s been working very hard on the textile machine recently. It’s good that you make something delicious to reward him. ”

She realized that her sister-in-law was becoming more and more generous and had even learned to take the initiative.

Xiao Baili smiled and nodded. “I think so too.”

Just then, one of Xiao Hanzheng’s guards rushed in.

“My Lord,” he said to Xiao Hanzheng, “the Ge Kingdom’s army attacked the border. The Third Prince is injured and unconscious.”
