The Imperial Concubine Chef - C134
Although Su Family had moved away from East Street, Su Family’s courtyard was still occupied by the servants. Sun Xiguang and He Minggui stayed there. There were also two boys with indenture contracts. had set his eyes on the two of them and was currently doing chores in chef. However, Sun Xiguang’s intention was to take them in as his disciples, but whether or not they could even pass down their culinary skills to him still depended on whether they could become his disciples in the future.
Actually, it also meant that the Su Family had not left the east street. When there was nothing to do in the day, a woman that he was used to would still visit the Su Family. In the beginning, they did not dare to do so. To them, the Su Family s today were too deep. However, the attitude of the Su Family was still as close to them as ever. In addition, the business with Su Family and Zhao Family had never stopped, so with her aunt in the middle to change things, it didn’t take long for everyone’s relationship to recover to how it was before.
The Qiao Family came fairly frequently. So Su Xinyu directly brought Tian Liyong to find Qiao San.
“If you want to buy a yard with a door in front of it…” Isn’t it better to open a medicine store anyway? ” After hearing Tian Liyong’s request, Qiao San’s eyes lit up.
Tian Liyong thought for a moment, then nodded: “Indeed. “But is there anything suitable?”
Qiao San hurriedly said, “What a coincidence.” Yu, do you know the Xin Kang Hall at your side? The father of that family, Zhao Langzhong, was severely ill in his hometown. Zhao Lang was in a hurry to return to the village. Coincidentally, one of the teachers in his shop had been taken away by someone else, so he decided to return home to live in a fit of anger. It was because I had helped his family that they had handed over such a big matter to me. The price was not cheap, but it was almost the same as the one in the Yu’s house, and there was even a ready-made medicine store in front. However, there is still one more problem, and that is the things that the Zhao Family cannot take away from the medicine store, so if you want to convert it into silver, it is not like the people who open the medicine store can’t buy it either. ”
Su Xinyu felt that it was reliable. Even if her family was sick, she could cure them herself. However, he knew about this Xinkang Hall. The boss was a doctor herself. Although her medical skills were not bad, she mainly relied on his fellow junior brothers to sit in the hall. If she was betrayed by this fellow disciple, then she would indeed be discouraged. But in the end, it was a huge matter and he had to discuss it with Tian Liyong. Thus, she first told Qiao San that they would go back and think about it, and then Su Xinyu brought Tian Liyong to the side of Xin Kang Hall to take a look.
Probably because there was no doctor sitting in the hall, there were not many people buying medicine at the gate of Xinkang Tang right now. As the two of them went in, Su Xinyu picked a few commonly used tonics. Looking at the quality of the ingredients, it was indeed not bad.
Returning to the Su Family, Su Wenlan hurriedly asked if she found a suitable house. Su Xinyu then told the matter of Xin Kang Hall to her mother. Su Wenlan also knew about this medicine store. However, because she was used to it, she generally maintained a lifestyle of not going out of the door and not going out. In fact, she had never been to Xin Kang Hall. Would it be inappropriate to buy their medicinal ingredients? ”
This time, it was Tian Liyong who replied: “Aunt, I actually think it’s pretty good. Otherwise, if grandpa came over and opened a medicine store as well, if the medicinal herbs were of good quality, it would be convenient for him to store them all. I don’t mind the price. This time, because I didn’t reward my manor with anything, the emperor rewarded me with a thousand gold. Fourth Prince also gave me five thousand taels of silver in private. So as long as I can get the right ones, the price won’t be a problem. ”
Hearing that, Su Xinyu’s eyes opened wide: “So much money! “Then aren’t you rich!”
Su Wenlan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Your brother risked his life for this. “How is it good?”
Tian Liyong laughed: “Aunt, how could Xinyu not know, she, is just teasing me.”
Su Xinyu chuckled: “Of course. Big Brother Yong understands me. However, you have to make good use of this silver. “In the future, you must marry me to a virtuous and beautiful sister-in-law.”
Tian Liyong’s smile stiffened for a split-second, but he quickly resolved the helplessness in his heart. I’m not in a hurry. The situation in the middle of the kingdom was unstable. As long as the Fourth Prince was not crowned as the emperor, then there would be no absolute stability. Furthermore, other than the enthronement of the new emperor, there will definitely be a long period of turmoil.
Although Su Wenlan disagreed, she knew that she shouldn’t talk too much about Tian Liyong. Actually, she had already thought before that if her daughter could marry the Tian Family, then bravery was the best choice. Unfortunately, she could also see that her daughter only treated Tian Liyong as her own brother, and she also had other kinds of feelings towards him in her heart, so it was even more inconvenient for her to say more.
In the end, the matter of the Xinkang Hall was settled. The price was not cheap, but Tian Liyong felt that it was worth it, since no one else had the qualifications to say anything. Actually, Su Xinyu was already aware of the fact that Qiao San had already helped to coordinate the most reasonable price.
Although he bought the house, Tian Liyong still wanted to renovate it. Only after the Zhao Family s were all moved away did Tian Liyong find someone to renovate the mansion, and also close the medicine shop to restore the face in front of him, so the signboard would naturally be taken off of him.
However, Tian Liyong, the shop assistant from the medicine stores did not withdraw. Firstly, there were two servants that had bought back with his Zhao Family. This time, they were not brought away, and were brought over by Tian Liyong. The other four were all good people who caught medicine and medicine, so Tian Liyong asked them to help him with the shop’s decoration. He paid them to do so, and when they reopened the store in the future, it would be to prevent his grandfather from looking for others.
In the blink of an eye, October arrived. The platform outside the city had already been built. Su Xinyu and Hu Ya went to take a look around, and felt that it was suitable. So she didn’t think too much about it. On the other hand, the other families were all nervous. Half a month before the restaurant opened, they had already started to win over people with all sorts of preferential treatment.
However, Su Xinyu didn’t do that. Firstly, she was confident in his and Sun Xiguang’s skills. Secondly, she didn’t think that these methods of these people had any use. After all, she had mentioned this to Li Baoxiao herself. However, for those people who had been preparing for so long, ‘fairness’ or ‘fairness’ was not her concern.
Tian Liyong only found out about this after he came. He was very angry that Su Xinyu had been bullied by the other restaurants. He had originally thought that he might as well teach those few people a lesson. But Su Xinyu told him that she wanted to win once with her own ability. Only by publicly defeating these people would these people not dare to do so in the future. They would no longer have the ability to cause trouble for themselves. So Tian Liyong listened to Su Xinyu. However, he did not completely give up on helping out. And the help he chose to do was to get people to speed up and tell Shangguan Lin what had happened.
Because of the old emperor’s relationship, Shangguan Lin had not come out of the palace for a long time. He neither made friends with the imperial court, nor did he even look at his own mother in the imperial harem. Many people felt that the Fifth Prince had been placed under house arrest in the palace. At the beginning, when he returned, the Emperor’s suspicion that he had not been angered was somewhat lessened. At least Shangguan Lin was like this, they wouldn’t feel that there was any change in the situation.
This also gave Shangguan Lin more opportunities to freely move. In reality, the reason why he hadn’t stepped out of the door for so long was entirely because someone had been disguising themselves in the palace. He himself had always been in the military camp.
Tian Liyong was now Shangguan Lin’s trusted aide, so he naturally knew where Shangguan Lin was. That night, the letter landed on Shangguan Lin’s table. After reading the letter, not only did Shangguan Lin not frown, he smiled. Seeing Master acting in such a manner, Xiao Tong thought that something good was about to happen. Fifth Master, did something good happen? ”
Shangguan Lin handed the letter over to him: “Read it for yourself.”
When Xiao Tong finished reading, he frowned. “Master, why are you still smiling? This group of people are bullying Miss Su. ”
Shangguan Lin swept through the worries of the past few days, smiled and picked up the tea leaves, “How could that girl be so easily bullied? You should know her cooking skills well. It can’t be said that she was unique to the world, but he wasn’t something ordinary people could compare to. To be able to make all of the large wine and tea shops in the Haian City fear her and even go as far as’ swindling ‘her without sparing their reputation, it is sufficient to show that those people have felt threatened. ”
Xiao Tong did not find it funny. But even so, they are still bullying people. ”
Shangguan Lin nodded, “That is indeed the case. At first, it was them who were bullying Xinyu. But in the end, not all of them fell into Xinyu’s plans. ”
Xiao Tong sighed: “But I still feel angry. You said that they had the audacity to join hands against someone you love so dearly. If this was what they wanted, then Miss Su’s previous efforts would have been in vain. As you know, they are widows and orphans. Was it easy for a little girl like her to support such a large family business? The more I think about it, the angrier I get. ”
Shangguan Lin put down the teacup: “Aren’t you trying to provoke me?”
Xiao Tong stuck out his tongue: “Hey. This servant is only speaking your mind. Aren’t you worried? Moreover, it’s already been a few months, don’t you feel like going to see Miss Su? ”
He would be lying if he said that he didn’t want to. However, Shangguan Lin also knew that it would be best if he stayed still and didn’t move at all. When he was in the military camp, in Fourth Brother’s line of sight, whether it was Royal Father or Royal Father, both of them would feel at ease. If he were to leave, there was no guarantee that he would be suspicious. Although he did not think that the Fourth Brother would do anything to him, after all, their relationship was something that they had for many years. But Royal Father’s words still made him feel fear. ” I can’t leave the camp for the time being, much less leave it. Other people might not be able to help, but take Tu Fu along, don’t show your face before the competition, and then bring my letter to Xinyu. Make Tu Fu stay by Xinyu’s side in the future. In case someone tried to harm her again. The previous kidnapping cannot happen again. Last time it was just a small fight, but if these sellers were up to no good, the result wouldn’t be so easy to control. ”
Xiao Tong hurriedly accepted the order: “Then this servant will do it right away! “But your side …”
Shangguan Lin waved his hand: “I’m fine. It would only take ten days to half a month, and there wouldn’t be any changes to the situation in the middle of the court. But after you go over, tell Tian Liyong to come back quickly. I have something for him to do. “
