The Imperial Concubine Chef - C84
Back at the inn. Su Wenlan hurriedly asked: “Does Young Master Wen have any news for the shopkeeper here?”
Su Xinyu nodded: “Mn. Mother, don’t worry. Ling Ge did keep his word and did indeed have news for the Manager Zhang here. By the way, he also wrote me a letter. There was talk of the village. Take a look. ” With that, she took out the letter and handed it over to Su Wenlan.
Su Wenlan had originally learned a few words from Zhou Sanlang, and she had also learned them from him when she was teaching her. Recently, her daughter had taught Hu Ya how to read and she also studied under him, so although her writing skills were not very good, she could read everything. Reading the letter was no problem at all. After she finished reading the letter, she let out a long sigh. This is going to be tough for Seventh Aunt. ”
Su Xinyu kept the letter. Mother, don’t be sad. When we stand our ground here, we will bring the Seventh Grandmother over. ”
Su Wenlan nodded: “Mn. Your Seventh Grandmother has done so much for us. We can’t let her die alone in the village. Mother will support you this time. ”
Su Xinyu laughed: “I knew mother would support me. Then Hu Zi and I will go out for a stroll. Do you want to come along? ”
Su Wenlan waved her hand, “There’s no need. I’ll make the clothes for both of you. You’ve grown quite a bit in this half year. The clothes from before were already a little short. The weather seemed to have turned cold, and wearing these clothes wouldn’t be appropriate. “What you buy outside is always better than making your own.”
She knew that her mother was unwilling to reveal herself, and since they had just arrived at a large place, she was still worried. Su Xinyu did not force her mother to definitely go with them. Then mother, you need to rest well as well. Clothes don’t worry. The silver from Ling Ge that sold ginseng was given to me by the Manager Zhang. Even if the goods sold in the shop are definitely not as comfortable as you make them, buying two sets first is still possible. That’s three thousand silver. ”
Hearing “three thousand silver taels”, even the ball of thread in Su Wenlan’s hands fell to the ground. What? Why are there so many? ” In the past, she had always thought that a few hundred taels was a sky-high price. Who would have thought that it would actually be as much as three thousand taels!
Su Xinyu did not hide Wen Ling’s contribution: “I know that there is a Ling Ge in here that has helped us, but since he gave us the silver, I cannot return it. But if we can’t accept his kindness for nothing, I won’t let him give us the silver for nothing. I have already discussed this with Manager Zhang. I gave them some unique recipes. There were many restaurants in the Ling Ge, and if he sold these recipes to him, he would be able to sell them for quite a bit of money. “Seems like he bought the menu from me.”
Su Wenlan sighed: “Young Master Wen is truly a good person. To be able to flirt with us two like this, he even saved your life. ”
At this time, Su Xinyu had nothing more to hide. Mother. There’s one thing I never told you. I’m not acquainted with Ling Ge because of you. is a Ling Ge that Big Brother Yong knows through me. That year, when I went up the mountain to gather medicinal herbs, I met the master and his servants, who had all been bitten by poisonous snakes. I used the Spirit Spring and step grandfather’s antidote to save them. That’s why I saved the lives of the four of them. ”
Su Wenlan was shocked, “There’s actually such a thing! Kid, you sure are bold! But what if they find out that you used a Spirit Spring? ”
Su Xinyu laughed: “Didn’t they notice it? It’s all right, Mother. Ling Ge was a good person. And trustworthy. He also believed that I could do what I liked and accomplish what I wanted to accomplish. In this world, besides Mother and Seventh Grandmother, there were also people from the Tian Clan. Only he will believe me. ”
As Su Wenlan listened to his daughter’s words and saw the smile on her face, her heart moved. She thought of something, but didn’t say anything. Forget it. The past was over. “You should be more careful in the future.”
Su Xinyu nodded: “You don’t have to worry. I can never put myself in danger. ”
Hu Ya came back from outside with two candies in her hand. This candy was a little similar to the candied fruits that Su Xinyu was familiar with. However, the candy here is used to soak the various fruits in sugar water for a few days before being strung onto the sticks to be sold. Usually there were four fruits on a signature, most of them wild pear apricots, some hawthorn, some chestnut and some crabapple, so every one of them was different. Because of the sugar water, so the price of a string of three coins, very much like a child’s like.
After getting along with him for so long, Su Xinyu was quite assured in Hu Ya’s abilities. And Hu Ya was indeed a good helper. Although this little girl’s words were ugly, she was quick to learn them. Right now, she could already help her memorize a few things. Even though it didn’t look like it was meant to eat, its tongue was very sensitive. One could easily remember the taste of it after eating it once. This was very useful to Su Xinyu. Furthermore, Hu Ya had one good point, which was that she had a lot of strength and her body was very flexible. The key was that her attacks were ruthless enough when fighting, although she was only twelve years old and did not have any martial arts. However, in the past few months, she had grown a lot taller as well as more meat. She looked just like a strong young man. With her here, her mother would feel a lot more at ease.
Su Xinyu was never stingy, although she had a master-servant relationship with Hu Ya, she was not stingy with giving Hu Ya pocket money either. Su Xinyu would give Hu Ya money for every month, although it was not much now, so she only gave her fifty pieces of money every month. However, to Hu Ya, who did not even need to spend her own money, this was just pure profit. Therefore, she was also willing to use her private money to buy things for the Madam and Young Master. Today, these two bundles of candy were her filial piety.
In the end, Su Wenlan took a bite of the candy that she had received with a smile. Aiyo. This was really sweet. But I don’t like sweet food. Hu Ya, help me eat it. ”
Hu Ya felt that although tiger-like and simple-minded, she was extremely intelligent. She was not shy with her wife, so she got Su Wenlan a cup of tea while chuckling. Madame, you must not lie to me. I know you love sweet food. You like the glutinous rice root yesterday. Don’t eat too little just because you feel sorry for me. I have silver in my hand. I’ve saved up all the things that the young master has given me, there’s quite a bit of it. ”
Su Xinyu laughed, “Mother, just eat. “Don’t try to coax her like you would a normal child. Her brain is smarter than mine.” She took a bite of the strawberry. Sweet and sour indeed. Even if she had too much sugar and water, she would still laugh a little at this wild strawberry, but with Hu Ya’s help, she also felt it was delicious.
Hu Ya scratched her head with a smile: “How could I be as smart as you, young master? This praise is so great that I feel embarrassed. ”
Su Xinyu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. You still know how to be embarrassed? “When I fought with someone the other day, why didn’t I feel embarrassed forcing them to call you boss?”
Hu Ya’s words were logical. Isn’t that because we have to protect the madam and young master? If I wasn’t valiant, they would think we were easy to bully. However, those mischievous little mischievous kids, they can’t even beat me, they really are trash. Even if they call me boss, I don’t think it’s going to work. ”
Although this child had become a man, Su Xinyu truly liked her to do this. Okay. I know you can. Come, let’s go outside and take a look. Since we are going to settle down here, we should buy a courtyard to stay in. It’s not a big deal to stay in an inn. ”
Hu Ya nodded: “That’s true. I just went out for a walk and I know where the dentists are. I’ll take you there. ”
Su Xinyu shook her head: “There is no need to look for the Fang family member yet. Let’s see for ourselves. It’s always better to know what you’re thinking first. ”
The master and the servant left the inn and began strolling within the Haian City. It was after morning when they came out, so it wasn’t long before the sun was about to set.
Today they were visiting the most prosperous central district. There were quite a few restaurants with food and wine. Su Xinyu even went to the entrance of the Yun Lai Workshop to look around. Seeing that the place looked really like a place filled with guests coming from, she was happy for Wen Ling. After all, as an unfavoured son of a concubine, owning an estate was very important. Otherwise, after his son inherited the family business, he wouldn’t get much.
“Young Master, in the future, our restaurant will definitely be bigger than this Cloudburst Workshop!” Hu Ya firmly believed that his Young Miss was the most amazing woman. As long as she wanted to do something, she would definitely be able to do it!
Su Xinyu smiled slightly: “We don’t need to be that old, we have fewer people after all, and we are still young, so hiring too many people might not be enough to suppress their thoughts. So for now, the shop we’re going to press must be smaller. Actually, she didn’t necessarily need a shop. She could set up a stall on the side of the street. This way, we can slowly attract customers. In the future, when we open up a large restaurant, we will have a regular source of customers. ”
Hu Ya did not understand the way things were run. Of course she understood the difference between the silver used in restaurants and the silver used in street stalls. She did not know how much money the young lady had, but she knew she could spend as little as possible. “Life is always a matter of planning.” You’re right. Two more streets and it would be very lively. That’s the candy I bought on that street. The Fang Gang is at the East End of East Street. ”
Su Xinyu nodded: “Let’s go take a look. Actually, if possible, buying a small courtyard on that street and setting up a stall at the entrance every day would be the most convenient. ”
Hu Ya also felt that this was the best course of action. Yes. That way I can look after my wife. After all, Madam is so beautiful, so it’s inconvenient for you to come out. ”
Isn’t it? In this day and age, it was indeed very dangerous for a woman to be beautiful. Even if Su Xinyu had disguised his mother’s face, her temperament and appearance couldn’t change too much. If not for the coquettish crazy guy’s teasing, Hu Ya probably would not have been able to activate the skill “Violence”. That was the truth. “Then you lead the way, let’s go to the Fang Clan first.”
The two of them had just turned onto another street, and before Su Xinyu could see what this street looked like, she heard a woman crying at a door. That earth-shaking cry caused many people on the street to whisper among themselves, but no one went up to try and persuade them.
Su Xinyu frowned, and instinctively dodged to the side. As she was dodging, she happened to hear someone whisper, “What kind of sin has the Feng Family’s wife suffered!?” “He just became a sister-in-law and he wants to kick his out of the house.”
Another person said with a hint of anger, “This woman is very venomous. She said that she wanted to sell her sister-in-law to Brother Zhao to fill in the rooms. Tell me how wicked you are. Boss Zhao had already lost several wives, and he was already old enough to be Aberry’s father. Isn’t this forcing her to die!? ”
“Isn’t it because of this courtyard? This big kid is also a good-for-nothing. The woman would listen to whatever she said. He even gave the silver to his brother-in-law to sell! “When the time comes, we will have lost all our silver and there won’t even be a place to stay.”
This time, Hu Ya heard it too. The master and the servant looked at each other, frowning. The two of them had mostly been hurt by scum relatives, so they were especially sensitive and angry towards this kind of thing. Hu Ya asked softly, “Young Master. Can we do anything? ”
Su Xinyu sighed. She really wanted to do something. However, they had no power or power, so they could not reveal their wealth. However, she had an idea, “I have an idea. Take me to the Dental Hall first! “
