Ever since she cooked a game on the mountain that day, Su Xinyu had seen Wen Ling on the mountain four days in a row. But they didn't make her a cook every day. Wen Ling also brought along many delicious delicacies from the big restaurants. Even if these delicious delicacies were not all delicious for Su Xinyu. However, she had always wanted to savor the delicacies of this world. She had never had a chance before, so she was very satisfied that someone had willingly delivered some of it to her.
Remove the food. Wen Ling even brought over a lot of books. It even included the code of the current dynasty. this made Su Xinyu very surprised. Young Master Wen, why are you giving this to me? It's not like I can rely on the top scholar. "
Shangguan Lin laughed: "Xinyu is so smart, how can you not understand what I'm saying? Moreover, she wouldn't need these to become the top scorer in the Imperial Examinations. However, when it came to dealing with treacherous people and doing business, the Codex was useful. I know Xinyu always wanted to do business on your own. Although it was hard for a woman to reach this goal. But I'm sure you can. That's why I gave you these. "
After Su Xinyu finished listening to all these, she was sincerely moved. Young Master Wen... Thank you so much! " That was the theory. If you want to do things without leaving any loopholes, you need to understand the rules. As a human being, so was business. If one did not understand the laws of this era and only followed the rules of their previous life when doing business, then something might happen very soon.
"Seeing how precious Su Xinyu was as she touched the cover of the book, Shangguan Lin smiled in satisfaction. Our lives were saved by you, so it's not worth thanking me for just giving you a few books. "
"That's different. I did save you, but you helped me a lot, and you gave me my medical fees. So it was that they owed each other nothing. And these codes are your faith and blessing in me. I must thank you. "
Seeing Su Xinyu's serious face, Shangguan Lin's heart moved. For a moment, he really wanted to keep the little girl by his side, but he felt that the little girl was too young now. He needed to wait a bit longer. Then don't stay in Young Master Wen all day. I treat you as my friend, just call me Ling Ge. "
Su Xinyu was startled, but she did not object. It was just a form of address, if they continued to interact like this, then calling Young Master to come to the girl would be really strange. Then in the future, Ling Ge will need to take care of you too. "
Shangguan Lin felt at ease being called Ling Ge. "He took out a small wooden sign from his pocket." This is a peach talisman that my mother gave me. It isn't anything valuable, but it can be used to pray for safety. Call me brother. This is the greeting gift that brother gave you. Remember to keep it well. If you ever meet someone from the Wen Family in the future, take it out. They will help you with the Wen Family's imprint on it. "
Although it was called a peach rune, how could it be something simple that could be used as a keepsake? Su Xinyu received the Peach Rune, and her expression became serious. Ling Ge, actually … What I've done is really not worth your while. "
However, Shangguan Lin still had a faint smile on his face. If I say it's worth it, it's worth it. Besides, I want to see you do what you want to do. I hope you can. "
Su Xinyu looked into Wen Ling's eyes: "What is your wish? That is … What do you want to do? "
Shangguan Lin thought for a moment, then replied: "Me? It was like living a peaceful life with his mother. Do a small business, buy a few acres of thin land to collect rent. "They don't need to be rich or powerful, as long as they don't have to worry about food or clothing."
Thinking about Wen Ling's background, she sighed, "You can definitely do it!"
How could Shangguan Lin not guess what Su Xinyu was thinking? It was a pity that what this little girl knew was not the truth. Her identity. Whether it was to allow the three Royal Brother s to ascend the throne, or to allow the Fourth Brother s to ascend the throne themselves, it was impossible for them to have the kind of day he had hoped for. "Then I'll be counting on your blessings."
Since the day he was given the Peach Rune, Wen Ling had not appeared for three days. Although Su Xinyu was a little disappointed, after thinking about it for a bit, it became colder and colder. Furthermore, Wen Ling did not do nothing every day just to meet him. Thus, he decided not to go to the mountain every day.
He saw his daughter sit back down and begin to embroider with him. Madam Su was finally relieved. She thought her daughter had run mad for more than a month on the mountain. It was impossible for this girl to not think about home all day. It was a good thing that their little girl was very obedient.
Very soon, the sky turned extremely cold. The temperature dropped especially quickly this winter. In December, it snowed heavily for two days and it was impossible to walk from the village to the county town. If he wanted to enter the city, he would have to walk on two legs. But no one wants to go that far into knee-deep snow. Fortunately, there was nothing that the farmers needed to buy. The food was already in the cellar, and it was much more comfortable than the people in the city who still needed to buy rice and vegetables.
However, because of this, buying New Year's gifts became troublesome. He had thought that it would take less than three to nine days for the snow to subside, but in the end, he had no hope of doing so. As the new year approached, another heavy snow fell. This time, it was even more severe than the last time. The old house had already been crushed by the snow.
Even though it was said that a snowstorm was not enough, the number of people affected was not small. However, it had not reached the point where the imperial government would have to lend a helping hand. The local county magistrate was a good official. He sent his men from village to village to see if they wanted to send out the county's storehouses for food.
Since Two-boundary Village had a High Scholar and a woman, they naturally received the greatest attention. However, the situation with the Two-boundary Village was still alright. There were only two families whose houses had collapsed, and both the village head and the village head had been placed in the ancestral house. Because the village had more dried fruits in the autumn, there was nothing that needed relief. The constable personally went to Madam Liu and Zhou Tian's house to inquire about the situation. In the end, he only left two taels of silver to the Zhou Tian family, saying that it was as a subsidy to the High Scholar, and then left.
Due to the heavy snow that was almost like a snowstorm, Mr. Li was unable to continue teaching Su Xinyu at Madam Liu's place. When the road finally cleared, it was already the ninth day of the first month.
This year's Su Xinyu could also be considered to be living quite comfortably. When they returned to Zhou Tian's home for dinner, there were no Madam Wang nor was there Zhou Shitou. Only she and her mother were busy in the kitchen, doing whatever they wanted to eat. Although Chow Dalang's entire body was filled with a depressing aura, she still revealed a smile on her face. Hearing her intentions, Su Xinyu decided to use the two taels of silver that was given by the yamen to find the Chow Dalang something that she would be willing to do. Appearance was secondary, character must be good.
With regards to this point, Su Xinyu was completely in favor of it. She pretended to be innocent and asked, "Granddaddy, will the new auntie give the little girl a cute little brother?"
After Lady Wu heard her granddaughter's words, she nodded happily. "That's right. "Do you like girls?"
Su Xinyu nodded strongly: "I like it! That way, the little girl would be the big sister. You can give whatever is good and fun to your little brother! " After saying that, she ran in front of Chow Dalang and pulled his sleeves. Eldest Uncle, is little brother going to let little girl bring him? "Little girl likes little brother."
In the end, Chow Dalang was also a person of the Zhou Family. Although he didn't treat the girl well, he still knew in the bottom of his heart that she was his niece. It was just that his wife and son kept talking about him in his ears. On top of that, the little girl from before did not feel any presence at all. So I can't like it. Now, seeing that the little girl didn't hold a grudge, and still looked forward to him having a son for her to be her little brother, it was probably because the winter was too cold, making it easier for people to feel warmth in their hearts. He rubbed the top of Su Xinyu's head. "Sure. When he had a little brother in the future, he would let the little girl take him. Make him treat the little girl well. " In fact, if the family stone can be a little girl, their family would be very good.
Su Xinyu's mood did not change because of her. She knew that this year, that trash of a dad was going to take the Imperial examinations again. Success or failure would be decided in this year. She could not think of a way to escape from her home, so she could only try her best to make these people have a better impression of her. This way at least her and her mother's position would be more stable.
The others didn't have as many thoughts as Su Xinyu. The whole family also thought that Zhou Sanlang would definitely go to high school this year, because this way, they could change their Zhou Family to become rich and powerful. However, after the end of the year, he still had to work and earn money.
There will be very few people in this lantern on the fifteenth of the first month. Although the roads between the villages had been cleared out, it was too cold for anyone to go out for a stroll. Not to mention that some families had suffered. Thus, on this day, at least most of the people with Two-boundary Village had burned their own homemade paper lanterns.
Returning back to the house, Su Xinyu picked up the bowl and took a sip of the warm soup. Spreading some dried fruit crumbs and white sugar over the sticky and thick YuanXiao soup was also an excellent thing.
Madam Liu also took a sip, sighing after drinking it, "Why does it have to be said that our Xinyu is from the lower realms of the Heavenly Star Realm, and a pot of Yuanjia Soup can become so delicious? This is incredible. "
Madam Su also smiled, but he didn't wait for her to speak. Su Xinyu suddenly cried out, and when she opened his mouth, it was full of blood, and even had a tooth missing.
This time, Madam Su was completely frightened. Girl, what's wrong with you? " As he spoke, he hurriedly used the handkerchief to wipe the blood off the corner of Su Xinyu's mouth.
"Su Xinyu hurriedly pushed her mother away, in case her handkerchief was dirty. "If you have something to do, go and change your teeth."
Only now did Madam Liu realize that it was about time for the little girl to change her teeth. Thus, she quickly picked up the tooth that the little girl spat out. She then asked, "The upper and lower teeth?"
Su Xinyu pointed upwards. Although it was the change in her teeth, when she bit the peanut, it was really painful. Even the last piece of flesh was torn off, otherwise it wouldn't have bled. Right now, she really didn't want to speak. It hurt!
When she heard that it was a change of teeth in Madam Su, she finally relaxed. I forgot about that. I didn't hear you talk about dental activities before. "Aiyo, I'll go get you some water and rinse your mouth."
Su Xinyu was also depressed in her heart. Since I'm so grown-up, of course I know that if my teeth are moving, it means I have to change my teeth. Furthermore, every day with the Spirit Spring, even though my teeth were moving, it didn't affect anything. I had forgotten about the toothache myself. When Madam Su brought the water in, Madam Liu also threw his teeth in.
Seeing Su Xinyu gargling, the Madam Liu laughed, "After we change our teeth, we would be big girls."
Su Xinyu's heart felt like it was about to collapse. She didn't want to grow up at all, okay? A girl who grew up in this world had even less human rights!
