Chapter 52: Go out for an outing after seeing Hua Ping

Shutong wandered around for several days before seeing Hua Ping again. He was sitting at the window of the teahouse drinking tea and looking at the scenery. Shutong saw him and ran up to him: "Brother Hua, where are you?"

Hua Ping smiled and asked him to sit down, "There is something going on at home."

There was something going on at home, and my colleagues were too embarrassed to ask about the shop, and hesitated several times.

Hua Ping smiled and said, "If you have any questions, just ask."

Shutong asked cautiously: "Brother Hua, didn't you ask someone to burn the Qi family's house?"

"of course not."

Shu Tong clapped his heart: "Oh, it really scared me to death. I thought you burned the house down and was hiding it for fear of being investigated by the government. I didn't even dare to tell the second lady."

“Even if I mention it, your second wife probably won’t believe it.”

"ah?"

Huaping looked at the somewhat dumbfounded boy and replied casually: "I won't do anything that breaks the law, and I don't care about my longevity."

That's true, a helper is not that bold.

Shu Tong seemed to have put down a big worry and asked again: "Is it you who invited that Taoist priest?"

He nodded, "Yeah."

"How much will it cost? I'll give it to you." Shutong unfastened his wallet and asked for the money.

Huaping stopped him, "I'll give it to you when you get the shop."

Shu Tong looked at each other in surprise, "The shop has been sealed by the government, how can we get it?"

Hua Ping gave an unpredictable smile and did not answer directly, but said: "If your little lady is not in a hurry, just wait, the government will return the Qi family's yard in May at the most, and then let the old Taoist show up. That’s almost it.”

It’s not in vain that these guys got to know each other. They are so capable. Shutong smiled happily and said, “Then I will thank Hua Xiaodi for Su Ji.” After saying that, he had to pay for today’s tea. Huaping still said the same thing. , "After the work is completed, the reward will be calculated together."

Not a single penny was spent on him, which once again verified that Hua Xiaodi was not a liar. Shutong happily drank tea and chatted with Hua Xiaodi, and sat for a long time before leaving the teahouse.

 Huaping saw the Su family boy leaving happily through the window, and shook his head, "That's it. If I hadn't met him, I wouldn't have been able to be deceived."

Shutong ran home happily and told her about his meeting with Hua Ping, "Do you think Hua Ping is really capable? He can actually give us the shop."

After all, Great Kyoto is different from other places. The street gangsters in the market may not be simple gangsters, but may also be helpers of some powerful families who come to inquire for information. When Su Ruojin met Hua Ping for the first time, judging from his clothes and posture, One or two points can be seen in his conversation, but he didn't talk to Shu Tong, for fear that he would be constrained and unnatural when dealing with Huaping again.

So I don’t think that the burning of Qi’s yard was caused by Huaping. Why?

First, from the Su family's own analysis, Su Yanli is a serious eighth-grade official in the capital. He has neither power nor money. No one will have any ideas about him. Then Hua Ping does not intend to get close to Shutong, nor does he. Will burn down the house to frame the Su family;

Secondly, from Huaping's perspective, when Shutong talked to him, he asked someone to pretend to be a ghost, and the maximum was more than ten taels of silver. Huaping would not be stupid enough to burn down Qi's yard for more than ten taels of silver. If you are caught, you will be jailed.

That's why Su Ruojin was sure that the burning of the Qi family's house had nothing to do with Huaping. Whether it was an internal strife among the three Qi brothers or an intentional crime was a matter for the government and had nothing to do with her, Su Ruojin. She smiled.

Shutong was laughed at by the young lady and said, "Second lady, do you think the time is too long?"

From March to May, the results came out in the past two months, which is not long or short.

“If you meet the right one, don’t wait. Tell him in advance.” If you don’t meet him, let’s talk about it!

"Oh." After drinking tea with Hua Ping for a long time, Shu Tong felt that Hua Ping was reliable. They asked the young lady to wait until May, but the young master didn't want to wait. He felt a little sorry for her.

When you don’t see people, you feel that everything is unreliable, but when you see people, you feel that everything is promising. This is the thinking of ordinary people, and Shu Tong still needs to experience it!

When it comes to finding a shop, by chance, you might be able to find it tomorrow. If it's not by chance, you might be able to find it for a year and a half. There are all kinds of possibilities. Su Ruojin didn't encounter this in his previous life, so he calmed down. Do whatever you have to do.

On the last day of March, the sun was shining brightly and the spring breeze was warm. All the officials of Dayin Dynasty took a break, and almost all the officials in the city went to the suburbs for a spring outing.

The Su family's neighbors include the family of Mr. Xue, the head of the Ministry of Industry, and the family of Mr. Yang, the supervisory censor. It has been almost a year since the Su family moved here. The male owners of the three families are busy with their own careers and rarely come out of the house, except during the New Year. New Year greetings, this is the time we made an appointment to go on a spring outing together.

Adults interact with each other, and children who usually play together in the alley get closer.

Normally, Su Ruojinguang knew how many children there were in the Xue family and how many children there were in the Yang family. Except for the youngest who played together in the alley, the rest of the eldest children were either studying in the academy, Taixue, or Imperial College, or they just couldn't leave the house. Mai, it's a rare sight. This time because of the outing, Su Ruojin basically met everyone and recognized all the neighbors.

Mother Dong still stayed at home to take care of Su Silang this time. In addition to these two people, the Su family's servants and helpers also went out to have a picnic and fly kites. There were so many people. The Su family specially hired a carriage and brought their own mule cart with them. There were two full carriages. Kamono set out with the neighbors.

The carriages of people traveling on the official road came one after another, and it was really a lively scene with carriages flowing like water and horses like dragons.

Bathed in the bright spring light, the air is exuding refreshing fragrance, looking at the deep blue sky, all kinds of worries are swept away.

Along the way, the grass is lush and luxuriant, at the roots of trees, in the bushes, and under the feet of pedestrians; in the valley in the distance, the streams rotate, rush and jump, tinkling sounds, and silver mist splashes.

Fireworks in March are so beautiful!

Finally arriving at the destination, the children jumped out of the carriage with joy, jumping and running, filled with joy.

The eyes were filled with dignitaries wearing silks and brocades. Xianggui had never experienced such a scene. She was so frightened that her hands and feet became stiff.

Mao Ya had stayed in Zheng Guogong's mansion and had seen many big and small scenes. She was very calm. She, Shutong and Ershi brothers moved the things off the car in an orderly manner.

Su Yanli asked Shu Tong to come over and said, "First come with me to say hello to the teacher."

Shutong quickly adjusted his clothes and picked up Su Sanlang.

Su Yanli held his daughter in one hand and his wife in the other and was about to go to Mr. Fan. Director Xue quickly brought his son Xue Wulang over, "How about I accompany Dr. Su?"

Su Yanli subconsciously looked towards his neighbor on the right, Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang smiled and walked over with his eldest son Yang Mingyu, "Since we are all here together, let's go over together and salute Mr. Fan."

Su Ruojin saw that Mr. Xue had made up his mind to go there with his father, and Mr. Yang was afraid of his father's embarrassment and acted as a peacemaker.
