Chapter 187 New Year’s Trivia

The woman who was nourished by love may not have seen the face of her sister-in-law opposite because of the backlight, or maybe her fear was diluted by happiness. She suddenly gained courage, smiled sweetly, and bowed slightly, "Azhen has seen my sister-in-law, I don’t know that my sister’s visit is too far away.”

Cheng Yuzhu stared at her with dark eyes.

Cheng Yingzhen didn’t seem to see it, so she turned around and said, “Ah Jin—”

“Mother—” Su Ruojin hurriedly came to meet her, “I’m—”

“It’s rare for my aunt to come here, so hurry up and order a table of good wine and food.”

"Yes, mother." Su Ruojin turned around and bowed dignifiedly and politely, "Auntie, Ajin went down to prepare dinner first."

Cheng Yuzhu sneered, "Cheng Yingzhen, I didn't come to your house for dinner. Artai's leg is almost healed. After the first month of next year, let your man resume Artai's happy position."

After saying that, she stood up, raised her chin, and looked like a condescending Madam Hou, "I brought the message. If after the first lunar month, Atai has not been reinstated, you will wait for your father and mother to go to the Ministry of Etiquette to accuse you of being unfilial." ”

Cheng Yingzhen had never faced this kind of thing before. She didn't know how to respond. Just when she was about to turn around and call her daughter, Su Yanli stood behind her and replied expressionlessly, "If my father-in-law and mother-in-law feel that my son's legs are not enough, If the treatment is good, then go to the Ministry of Rites to report it, and I will wait at home for the official to come and pick him up. "

Su Yanli has a bright look on his face, and he usually looks like a gentle gentleman, but when he is serious and unsmiling, he is cold, indifferent and ruthless.

Changed, everything has changed!

Without Mrs. Ding, neither the wife of the Houfu nor her natal uncle could coerce Su Yanli and his wife. Cheng Yuzhu stared at the two of them with gloomy eyes, "I hope you don't fall into my hands. have…"

She snorted coldly, "Let's go -" After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves, raised her legs and left.

The one who came in an arrogant manner seems to be the same as the one who left in an arrogant manner. Only Cheng Yuzhu himself knows whether this is true or not.

Su Ruojin stood next to her parents and looked at Cheng Yuzhu who was leaving. "Mom, tell us about your childhood!"

Cheng Yingzhen was so afraid of her uncle's house that she almost never talked about what happened in her natal family before getting married.

Maybe it was the first time that she had the courage to face her evil sister, or maybe it was because her mother was by her side and her family was harmonious and happy. Cheng Yingzhen returned to the wing, sat next to her mother, and told the children about the past.

When a declining concubine wants to enjoy life but has no money, the limited money in the family is controlled by her aunt, and her aunt and concubine become the targets of her oppression. On the one hand, she rubs the man's life away. Women, on the other hand, use them as money-making tools to maximize their money in times of poverty. The life of luxury and extravagance that we see now is basically based on the money earned by treating aunts as servants and marrying concubines openly and selling them. Living.

Perhaps when Cheng Yuzhu came, he thought that Su Yanli would not be able to reinstate Cheng Baotai as the Cheng family wanted, and just wanted to give it a try. However, Su Yanli was angry and left without even having a cup of tea.

My sister’s last words are still scary, “Husband, are you okay?”

Su Yanli said, "As a small seventh-rank official, I can't help him grasp anything. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Cheng Yingzhen always believes in her husband, nods, and feels relaxed.

When you face the past squarely, you will have a more confident tomorrow.

The Su family's childhood was a prosperous one. Not to mention the two shops of the Su family, just the share of Prince Zhao, Mrs. Fan, and Mrs. Yang. At the end of the year, Su Ruojin was merciless in collecting money, whether it was loose money, coppers, or preparations. The scraps of silver used at home are still saved for large sums of money, which makes people feel confident!

Su Ruojin asked, "Dad, how about we buy a big yard?"

Su Yanli is a nostalgic person and can't bear to part with the small courtyard where he lives now. It is big enough for people and he can see the whole courtyard at a glance. This kind of space and scenery are just what he wants.

Su Ruojin still hit him, "Dad, your three sons sleep in separate rooms, and the younger sister also has to have her own room. Not only that, each of them should have at least one servant girl. There are too many servants in the house, which is not enough." Live.”     Do children grow up so fast? Su Yanli likes the current life. The children surround him and let him enjoy family happiness. How can he grow up just by looking at his children?

Having to face time like running water.

“It’s time for Da Lang and San Lang to be accompanied by a book boy.”

Su Ruojin said, "My little sister also has to have a little girl by her side."

Su Yanli nodded in agreement, "After that year, let's look at the house and pick two children and girls."

“Dad, I’ll buy a house next to the Taichang Temple Office, so that it can be convenient for you to get up and down.”

Su Yanli did not respond to her daughter's thoughtful thoughts, "It's just this small courtyard..." She couldn't bear to part with it.

Su Ruojin saw that her father was so attached to the yard, and her heart moved. She thought to herself, why don't she ask the landlord to buy it?

Of course today is the New Year’s Eve, and buying a house or a person will be done after the New Year.

After the first day of the Lunar New Year, Su Yanli became busier than before. He visited relatives and friends, invited colleagues back, and went out every two days. He was busy until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to watch the lanterns together.

Su Ruojin was also busy. After the heavy snowfall, the weather finally became clear and stable. On the eighth day of the first lunar month, both shops were opened, and they started making money again. Before opening, they asked the Siping Gang to find a driver to drive the mule cart.

Siping didn't ask any questions, and Baba sent the person over. He was a fat old man who smiled all day long and seemed to have wealth.

Su Ruojin raised her thumb and said, "The fourth manager is very good." The people she found were all in her eyes. Doing business was just to make money and make peace. She even made them so talented.

Siping smiled: "I heard that my wife is planning to buy a house, right?"

“Who did you listen to?” After asking, Su Ruojin realized who had said it.

Siping still smiled, "Do you need my help?"

Of course.

But Ruojin subconsciously didn't say anything. She always felt that if Siping was asked to help, Prince Zhao Xiaojun would give his family the entire big yard, and it would be sold and given away. She didn't think it was good, but besides knowing him, she was Mrs. Fan. .

Otherwise, she should ask Mrs. Fan for help. At least a favor is a favor and money is a money.

Siping seemed to know what she was thinking, "Second Lady is so busy with business, so she has time to go shopping for a house. Besides, the water in the capital is so deep. If you don't have an acquaintance to watch you, you can be deceived by accident."

This Su Ruojin believed, "Let me think about it first."

“Okay, when the second lady wants to buy it, just ask Huaping to let me know.”

Su Ruojin nodded.

Siping went to work on his own.

He had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by Su Ruojin, "Steward 4, wait a minute."

“Second Lady, is there anything else you can do?”
