Chapter 170: Can't Be the Master
"If you want me to say, this one-time spirit root test charm is very powerful, even the thickness of the spirit root is clear at a glance, and it only costs eight thousand taels, which is two thousand taels of silver lower than the Treasure Pavilion! ”
Compared with the admiration of the people, the Zhao family's faces were already black.
The people of the ancient family are even more anxious:
"I found out nothing!"
Many people who are watching are very worried, and can only say:
"No, nothing too suspicious, but a little ...... I don't know if it's an anomaly. ”
When the Gu family master and the others heard this, they immediately said:
"Hurry up, as long as there is something abnormal, there is something suspicious!"
A few staring people glanced at each other and said:
"We found a phenomenon, a small servant of the Su family will appear in the Treasure Pavilion every three days, and every time he will buy spiritual herbs and go back, but the strange thing is that after he has been there, the white shopkeeper will announce that a large number of runes have been sold every few hours, and he will also inform that the amount of one-time spiritual root test runes is also very sufficient......"
When the subordinate who was watching said this, everyone's faces looked a little good.
A middle-aged man immediately said:
"The Su family, are you sure it's the Su family? That must be a coincidence, right? What is the details of the Su family, we all know it clearly, there used to be so much support, but now, other small forces are rising, and there are scattered immortals left in the Shangqing area, I heard that many people have taken refuge in that scattered immortals, and Su Shiren can't even get the rent back!"
"That's right, how can the Su family provide the talisman seal, Su Shiren's eldest son, Su Wenze, you know, it was measured that there were twin spirit roots at the beginning, but it is said that he has been in the sect for six years, and he is still an outer disciple, and he is only at the third level of qi refining, and he doesn't know how to cultivate!
"Then why does the Su family buy so many elixir materials, elixir materials are not cheap!"
The people of the Gu family couldn't figure it out, they really didn't think that the Su family could find a way to find an immortal who supplied a one-time spirit root test talisman and sell it to the Treasure Pavilion, no matter how they thought about it.
The head of the Gu family thought for a while and said:
"Find a way to find out, if there is anything unusual about the Su family recently!"
At the same time, the Wen family and the Zhao family finally discovered this, but in the same way, they also felt that it would be too for the Su family to provide so many one-time spirit root test charms to the Treasure Pavilion.
The Wen family sneered:
"It is absolutely impossible to have anything to do with the Su family, don't forget, Miao Miao is the mother of the Su family, if it is true, will there be no news at all? I still remember, two years ago, Miao Miao didn't ask us for silver, in order to give his child to the Treasure Pavilion for testing! If you want me to say that this Su Shiren is really unacceptable, the head of a family is actually cut like this, and he can't even give up the money for his own child's spiritual root test, really!"
As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly the servant hurriedly came over and said:
"The two little masters of the Su family are here, saying that the master of the Su family treats the master harshly!"
When the Wen family heard this, they frowned, didn't Su Shiren have been treating Wen Yiyi and them harshly? Every time they have clothes and jewelry, not to mention how many they have, they can't be seen on their heads and hands! The clothes are also half-new and not old, and they haven't seen a few times wearing brand new clothes, like other families, when the clothes are worn eighty percent new, they are bound to be changed, but as a result, this Su family has even worn four or five percent new, and they don't see anything to change!
They felt that it was estimated that Wen Miaoyi had come to ask for silver again, and many people wanted to leave, but Su Wenhao and Su Wenxuan had already broken in, and they could only be forced to listen.
After they heard what the two brothers said, they couldn't believe it and asked:
"Say it again, your mother is locked up in the ancestral hall?Su Shiren is crazy, lock up the main mother in the ancestral hall?!"
"Isn't this Su Zimu only thirteen years old, Wen Yiyi, as a mother of others, can't even fight a child, it's a shame for the Wen family!"
"That's right, but Su Shiren is really good, I don't know if Wen Yiyi is a member of our Wen family, and he dares to treat him so harshly!"
"Housekeeper, go to Su's house for a ......"
The head of the Wen family also felt that this was not good, and Su Shiren knew that the Wen family was not easy to bully, otherwise if it was spread out, everyone would still think that the Wen family could be treated harshly!
The head of the Wen family thought of something, and before Steward Wen left, he secretly said:
"By the way, pay attention to whether this one-time spiritual root test charm has anything to do with the Su family!"
I don't think it's likely, but I can still look into it.
Su Zimu didn't know that the Su family had been targeted.
She was drawing talismans when Su Shiren suddenly came.
Su Zimu was very surprised and went to his small hall to meet the other party.
Su Shiren looked at Su Zimu differently at this time, as if he was very pleased, and he no longer had a black face, but he felt a little like a handsome son, obviously he was going to be forty, looking at the beautiful uncle who was only in his early thirties, I have to say that Su Shiren's appearance is still very top-notch, so whether it is the original owner or Su Ziye, there is no ugliness, and the appearance is quite outstanding!
And Su Zimu, I don't know if it's a coincidence, the appearance of every life is the same! But it is similar to the Su family, so it will not be particularly abrupt.
Bo Zhixing too, I don't know why, every world, the appearance is the same, but this also makes Su Zimu recognize it at a glance, although the soul is not the same, now Xiao Bo Zhixing is too small, it is not certain, but there is still fifty percent of it may be Bo Zhixing of the previous two lives.
Su Zimu asked suspiciously:
"Father, you came to me out of nowhere, but what's the matter?"
Su Shiren rarely gets close to his children, so Su Zimu's businesslike tone, Su Shiren is even more relaxed.
He said to Su Zimu:
"In the blink of an eye, you are so old, I am very happy to be a father. I heard from the housekeeper that you have already embarked on the path of cultivating the truth, and you can draw talismans, right?"
Su Zimu was a little surprised, did Su Shiren ask so directly? The first two kind words, not to mention how blunt they were.
But she was not the original owner, so she naturally didn't feel anything, nodded and said:
"I can draw a few talismans, and my cultivation is also suddenly comprehended, and they are all not in the stream......
Su Shiren naturally heard about the popularity of the one-time spirit root test charm, and seeing that she was modest, he said happily:
"That's right, that's it, no matter what you do, keep a low profile, don't let people know how many hole cards you have, the enemy can't see your strength clearly, so you won't act rashly. ”
Su Zimu was even more puzzled, why did Su Shiren suddenly say this?
She was a little incomprehensible, and always felt that she had a bad premonition, and sure enough, Su Shiren's next sentence was:
"The current situation of the Su family, you shouldn't have to worry about a girl, but your brothers are not angry, only you can save the Su family at present, you can only let you work hard for a few years first, but don't worry, when you want to get married, your father will definitely let you marry beautifully!"
Then, regardless of Su Zimu's obstruction, Su Shiren told Su Zimu about the situation of the Su family.
Su Zimu also thoroughly understood Su Shiren's thoughts.
It's nothing more than the big burden of the Su family because of his young age, but because he has no support, he can only think about the future well, and he doesn't have any extra energy to care about the children and the like. Just to think about the lives of everyone in the Su family in the future, it almost made Su Shiren worry about his gray hair.
Su Zimu can be regarded as understanding the root cause of Su Shiren's slamming, because Su Shiren can't solve it.
When she heard this, she thought it was easy to do:
"Which immortal did they take refuge into? Since it is not called rent, the land is recovered, and these lands can be sold to others!"
When Su Shiren heard this, he immediately shook his head and said:
"How can this work, the land is the foundation of the Su family, if you sell it, you will cut the root, even if it is better now, what about a hundred years later......"
Su Zimu smiled:
"Although the words are said so, have you thought about it, they don't pay rent, and over time, they will occupy the land in vain and not pay it back, isn't it cheaper for them? At least they sold the land, the money is in hand, and it can be reshaped at all, the Su family has relied on the land for hundreds of years to live well, but it can't be the same, you also said that the Su family will be eliminated from the five major families this time, do you know what the root cause is? Because it is set in stone!"
Su Shiren looked at Su Zimu in surprise, he didn't expect his daughter to be so young and so transparent.
He naturally also knew that looking at the entire Shangqing City, the Wen family mastered various shops, the Zhao family and the Gu family, respectively, took the immortals, and the Tian family ranked fourth, but also mastered the transportation of various places.
There is only the Su family, there is no backstage, only the ground, and it looks like it is going to collapse at any time. He wanted to change careers, but he couldn't do it!
But if Su Zimu knows how to run the seal, he can rely on the business of the seal and rise again, just like the ancient family!
Su Shiren said to Su Zimu:
"I don't have any skills, fortunately you have talent, and you can draw talismans, I want to put the Su family in your hands, I hope you don't let the Su family decline......"
Su Zimu didn't expect that she would be asked to take over the Su family!
This is too caught off guard, she is a person who is going to the cultivation realm, and it is impossible for her to stay here forever.
Su Zimu originally wanted to refuse directly, but suddenly saw Su Shiren's hand trembling slightly under the table.
Su Zimu had already understood why Su Shiren's previous temperament was so picky, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear the burden of the head of the Su family and support the Su family, so he would think too much, resulting in a particularly bad reputation.
Seeing such a person who worked hard but misunderstood, Su Zimu couldn't say anything to refuse.
She was thinking, the main reason was that she knew that she had always misunderstood her father, and that in her father's heart, she had never forgotten that the original owner was the eldest daughter, would she regret misunderstanding Su Shiren.
When Su Shiren learned that the Su family was in his hands and was about to be eliminated from the five great families, he must have been very sad, the local rent was becoming more and more difficult to recover, but the feeling of powerlessness to change it must have made him very painful.
Su Zimu used the identity of the original owner, but when she learned the truth, she still watched the original owner's father unable to return to the sky, making the Su family fall.
Su Zimu suddenly smiled and said:
"You don't need me to take over the Su family, after all, you are the head of the family, father, but I have a way to make the Su family not only not be excluded from the five great families, but also become the first family of the five great families!"
Su Shiren was very surprised, and he didn't know how Su Zimu could say such shocking words at will.
Their Su family, now in the eyes of many insiders, where is it worthy of the five great families, but as soon as her daughter opened her mouth, she actually said that she could make the Su family the head of the five great families!
This sounds unbelievable, but Su Shiren still can't wait to ask:
"What's the solution?!"
Su Zimu said with a smile:
"I have explored a set of my own cultivation methods, what does the eldest monk father of our Su family know now?"
Su Shiren shook his head stupidly, what advantage could the Su family have besides their own daughter who could draw talismans, he pointed at Su Zimu and said:
"The biggest advantage is...... You?"
Su Zimu choked, but thinking about it the other way, there is nothing wrong with this!
She had no choice but to say directly:
"Didn't my father listen to the housekeeper?Most of our Su family have spiritual roots, and I have my own cultivation method, you say, if I let the Su family all cultivate, how many more monks will there be in our Su family?!"
Su Shiren finally understood what Su Zimu meant!
There are nearly two hundred people in the Su family plus the subordinates! Among them, there are one hundred and sixty who are sure to have spiritual roots!
If they all become immortals, then who else can compare with the entire Su family in Shangqing City, and who else dares not to pay the rent of those who refuse to pay!
Su Shiren looked at Su Zimu with some shock, this really surprised him, no wonder Su Zimu said that this method could make the Su family the head of the five great families, even he felt that it would definitely shake the entire Shangqing City!
However, these are still assumptions, and Su Shiren couldn't help but ask:
"Can we really let them all cultivate? What if they can't?"
Su Zimu said with a smile:
"This father doesn't have to worry, I'll just worry about it. I suggested to my father, it is better to sell all the land outside, as long as the Su family rises again, it is easy to buy it back, and it will take at least three years for the Su family to become a cultivation family, before the Su family can make a blockbuster. ”
Su Shiren naturally understood that cultivation could be achieved in a day or two, and now the immortals were already flying all over the sky, although they had not gone to the cultivation realm, they had also heard that the immortals didn't seem to be so good, but for ordinary people, they couldn't imagine that they could fly to the sky, which made them envious!
Su Shiren immediately said:
"Then when will you start teaching them to cultivate? I will set off tomorrow to sell so much land outside, and save it cheaply Those small nights! A month later, it will be the banquet of the five great families, and there will be a public judgment at that time, I am afraid that our Su family will be temporarily excluded from the five great families, I will rush back within a month, I will not let you face it, I will go by myself when the time comes!"
Su Zimu didn't say anything, and let Su Shiren do his own thing.
When Su Shiren left, it was obvious that the whole person seemed to be much more relaxed, and he actually had a more bookish atmosphere.
Seeing this, Su Zimu thought of Su Shiren in the memory of the original owner, who obviously looked like a scholar who had no power to restrain the chicken, but he had to bear the entire Su family at a young age, and the whole person was wrapped around with a heavy breath that was difficult to breathe!
Su Shiren shouldn't want to be the head of the family at all, because it's too restrictive and the responsibility is too great, but as the only child of the Su family, he can only take on this heavy responsibility!
……
When Steward Wen came to Su's house the next day, he was told that Su Shiren had left early in the morning.
Steward Wen almost vomited blood, is this not sure that he is avoiding him!
Naturally, he didn't believe it, and said to Steward Su:
"Since the head of the Su family is not here, what about the lady of your house!"
How could Steward Su not know what the people of the Wen family were here to do, after all, they came with the two little masters.
The Wen family is also enough, every time they meddle in the affairs of the Su family, those who don't know still think that the Su family is the guest of the Wen family!!
However, Steward Su couldn't offend the Wen family, so he could only say unceremoniously:
"You are wrong about Steward Wen, except for the master, the second lady of our Su family is the biggest, the master is not there, and she has the final say on the affairs of the Su family!"
Steward Wen was very surprised, in front of him, could someone from the Su family still say such a thing?!
He snorted coldly, it's just a little girl, and she's still a housekeeper?
Steward Wen sneered and said:
"Since it's your second lady in charge, our Wen family is here, why don't we even have a way of hospitality, our Wen and Su families are still in-laws!"
Steward Su sighed in his heart, does the Wen family treat the Su family as an in-law? Pointing fingers, something happened to the Su family, and the Wen family didn't plan to help at all except to watch the excitement!
But Steward Su could only let his subordinates invite Su Zimu.
When Su Zimu heard the other party say that Steward Wen was coming, she remembered that Wen Miao was the concubine of the Wen family.
She roughly guessed the other party's purpose, nodded knowingly, and came to the premise.
After coming to the front hall, I saw Steward Wen sitting leisurely drinking tea.
Su Zimu came in, and Steward Wen got up very perfunctorily and greeted Su Zimu:
"Second Miss. ”
He said that he was about to sit down, however, Su Zimu didn't even look at the other party, and after he sat down in the first place, he looked at Steward Wen with a smile and said:
"Steward Wen, so polite, please take a seat. ”
As soon as Steward Wen saw Su Zimu speak, he felt that the little girl in front of him was really shameless, and he deliberately slapped his face!
Steward Wen squeezed out a dry smile and sat down again, but Su Zimu said to Steward Su:
"Steward Su, what are you doing standing? ”
This is interesting, Su Zimu is obviously saying that Steward Su and Steward Wen can sit on an equal footing, that is to say, the Wen family and the Su family can sit on an equal footing!
Steward Wen finally knew that the second lady of the Su family was really not a fuel-efficient lamp, no wonder Su Shiren didn't care about Wen Miao's detention in the ancestral hall.
Steward Wen said to Su Zimu:
"Second Miss, take the liberty to come and disturb, please don't mind, it's really our Wen family's master who misses Miss Miao, so I asked me to come and ask Miss Miao, why haven't you gone back to the Wen family to see ...... after so long?"
These words are obviously beating Su Zimu, telling Su Zimu that Wen Miao has the support of the Wen family, if he is interested, he should quickly release Wen Miao from the ancestral hall, and the Wen family should not know about it, otherwise the Wen family will not give up.
How could a person as perceptive as Su Zimu not hear the meaning of these words.
She deliberately changed her face, and asked with a sinking face:
"Speaking of Wen Miao, Steward Wen, I want to ask, are you Wen family people like Wen Miao, this is considered vicious!!"
Steward Wen didn't expect Su Zimu to change his face when he said that he would change his face, and he even directly scolded the entire Wen family for being vicious?!
This was simply too much, and Steward Wen really wanted to point at Su Zimu's nose and scold.
But he can't do this, otherwise the Wen family and the Su family will be torn apart.
He could only say angrily:
"Second Miss Su, what do you mean by this? Where did our Wen family offend you to let you curse our Wen family like this!!"
Steward Su was on the side, looking at Su Zimu's calm appearance, and admired it very much.
The second lady is only thirteen years old, and she can make the eight-faced exquisite housekeeper Wen lose her etiquette in a few words, which is really amazing!
But he was also worried about whether Su Zimu would be able to cope with Steward Wen.
Su Zimu smiled slightly and said:
"Steward Wen, what kind of anger are you doing? Is this a curse? Then I'm going to ask, Wen Yiyi, as my stepmother, deliberately bribed her subordinates, slandered me, the daughter of the Su family, for having an affair with someone, and also announced to the world that she wanted to use family law to close the ancestral hall against me! Not to mention the trumped-up charge on my head, she deliberately chose the day before the immortals came to choose a disciple, who couldn't see that her purpose was to ruin my future, and her heart could be punished! I'm just asking if the Wen family is evil-minded, and you say that I'm cursing the Wen family, so Wen Yi intends to ruin my future and tarnish my reputation, is this a thunderstorm that day!"
Steward Wen couldn't refute a word that was said.
Because of this matter, he knew as soon as he heard it, what Wen Miao's plan was, after all, a young lady was fifteen years old, and she couldn't participate in the test because she was seriously ill three years ago, and there was a thirteen-year-old young master, if she didn't test this time, there would definitely be a child who couldn't go to Xianmen, so she wanted to make Su Zimu unable to participate in the test.
He naturally knew that Wen Miao's thing was wrong, but after being locked up for so long, the ancestral hall was not released, and he just didn't take the Wen family in his eyes.
Naturally, he couldn't let the Wen family lower the Su family.
Steward Wen says:
"Second Miss's words, so much so that I can't say it, the left and right are what happened to the Su family, who knows whether it's true or not, the Su family is the second miss and you are in charge, that's not what you say, it's what!"
These words are really scoundrels, and Steward Su will be angry by Steward Wen's words.
But when Su Zimu heard this, she laughed and said:
"Well, Steward Wen knows who has the final say in this family now. Didn't the master of your Wen family say that he wanted to be gentle, then Steward Wen must have wanted Wen to return to the Wen family when he came this time, right? Yes, I'm approved, Wen Miao, you can take her back, when does my father say that she can come back, and come back! After all, such a vicious person, our Su family doesn't dare to let her out casually, otherwise if any of the brothers and sisters in the family are poisoned again, it will be too late to regret it!!"
Steward Wen couldn't believe it, what did Su Zimu mean by this?
Is she so arrogant that she wants to drive Wen Miao back to her parents' house?
If others knew about this, they wouldn't die laughing!
But Steward Wen also heard it, if he didn't pick him up now, Wen Miao could only stay in the ancestral hall!
This is spread out, and it will damage the reputation of the Wen family!
Steward Wen said angrily:
"Second Miss, you can't be the master of this matter!"
