Su Miao rushed back to the mansion after noon, and as soon as she got out of the carriage, she went straight to Steward Su.

I have to go to Uncle Su first, the situation I saw outside today is not very good, there are so many people, the things that need to be prepared are enough for the kitchen in the house to be busy for most of the day.

Carrying the hem of the skirt across the threshold, he saw Steward Su who received the news and was about to rush to meet him at the door.

"Uncle Su, I'm just going to look for you!"

Su Miao said with some surprise.

Steward Su bowed down to Su Miao and finished saluting, stood up straight and said kindly: "The eldest lady is polite, just order someone to call the slave if you have something." ”

Su Miao said: "Uncle Su, don't go outside with me, let's go to my grandmother together first, and then tell you what I saw outside." ”

Steward Su nodded: "Yes, eldest lady, please go ahead." ”

After Su Miao finished speaking, she also walked directly to the old lady's yard.

As soon as she arrived at the door, Su Miao shouted with a smile: "Grandmother, Miao'er is back!"

The old lady who was facing the account book heard Su Miao's voice, and told Mama Liu on the side to hurry out to see if she had heard it wrong.

After waiting for a sip of tea, I saw Mama Liu walking in with a smile: "The old lady's ears are really good, it's the eldest lady who is here." ”

In the next moment, I saw Su Miao, who was following Mama Liu, jump out and walked directly to the old lady's side to hold the old lady's arm.

The old lady looked at Su Miao, reached out and touched Su Miao's face, her eyes were full of distress: "It's a big summer, it's hard work." ”

"Mama Liu, go and bring the mung bean soup that has just cooled. ”

The old lady said to Su Miao with some seriousness: "On this day, drinking mung bean soup to cool off is better than medicine." ”

Su Miao didn't refute, listened carefully, and nodded obediently.

The old lady looked at Su Miao's obedient appearance, and patted Su Miao's hand with a smile: "You have always been worry-free." By the way, you'll be back this time, have you had lunch?"

Su Miao didn't worry the old lady, nodded firmly and said, "I've eaten." ”

Su Miao saw that Steward Su had finally arrived when she was far away, and waited for Steward Su to catch her breath, and asked the old lady and Su Miao to say goodbye: "The slave has seen the old lady, the eldest lady." ”

After Steward Su finished speaking, he said to the old lady and Steward Su: "Grandmother, I just went to look around in the morning, and found that the homeless people around us are basically gathered in the ruined temple five miles away. Lianxin and Zirao, the two maids, roughly paid attention, and there should be about two hundred people. ”

Su Miao said, thinking of the handsome man she met in the morning.

Su Miao, who reacted to what she was thinking, shook her head, trying to shake out the irrelevant thoughts in her mind. Continued:

Miao'er saw that they were really in a bad condition, so she bought some steamed buns and let them eat them first. He also told them that we would go to the soup kitchen tomorrow and asked them to wait there tomorrow. ”

The old lady and Steward Su were both listening carefully.

"There are too many people, and there are still some differences from my original estimate, Miao'er is afraid that the arrangement will not be good, so I thought about coming over first to ask my grandmother and Steward Su, what should I do?"

The old lady and the steward Su were shocked when they heard the number of people Su Miao reported back, the entire Su Mansion was only more than 200 people, and if it was a soup kitchen, it would be like raising another Su Mansion.

The old lady still praised Su Miaodao: "Miao'er did a good job." ”

The old lady pondered quietly for a while, and Su Miao didn't bother, drinking the mung bean soup brought by Mama Liu, waiting for the old lady's arrangement.

The old lady opened her mouth and asked, "Steward Su, what do you think?"

Steward Su took the lead in opening his mouth: "The emperor has already issued an order, it is impossible for our house not to do something." But if there are so many people, the minions may have to open a granary. Then we will send some more people from each courtyard and room to help in the kitchen first. ”

The old lady's eyes were dark, Su Mansion, like other big families, would leave a few granaries in the countryside or Zhuangzi in private, and when the way of heaven was good, the grain could be resold and resold when the way of heaven was bad, and when the way of heaven was bad, it could also be left for her own family to eat, and she would not have more unjust money when the price of food rose.

Steward Su is right, now that he has taken over this hot potato thrown by the emperor, it is naturally impossible to say not to do it halfway, which will become a disaster for Su Fu to say that it is not big or small.

Su Miao was also thinking in her heart, the emperor in her previous life transferred a large amount of money from the treasury to privately raise a secret guard, and this matter was known when she knew that Sun Hou's Mansion was standing on the emperor's side after she and Sun Zhuo got married.

I have to say that the standing level of the Sun Hou Mansion family is still quite high, at least before the new emperor ascends the throne, it is safe and sound, even if the new emperor ascends the throne later, Sun Hou Mansion is always on the emperor's side, so it also makes a way for the Sun Hou Mansion family to survive.

Even if you want to say that Sun Zhuo's brain is not bright, it is only for him personally, and the IQ of Sun Houfu's family has somehow not been passed on to this sister-in-law, I am afraid that in the end, Sun Houfu will be defeated in Sun Zhuo's hands. Su Miao sneered in her heart.

The memories came to an abrupt end, and Su Miao concluded that the emperor must have let the secret guards investigate when the homeless people poured into the city, and the emperor should also see that there were too many homeless people, and the treasury couldn't come up with so much money to appease the homeless people after raising the secret guards, so he thought of such a way to let the family of hundreds of officials transfer the burden.

The old lady made up her mind and shouted, "Steward Su." ”

Steward Su replied intently, "The slave is here." ”

"You wait a minute, go to Mama Gu to get the key to the granary on the Zhuangzi, and then, according to your arrangement, draw people from each courtyard to help, you must do everything foolproof. ”

He said to Su Miao: "Miao'er will go to the soup kitchen with Steward Su early tomorrow morning, you are in the façade of Su Mansion, and you must not make a mistake, you must not let the scene be chaotic, and finally let Su Mansion do bad things with good intentions." ”

Su Miao left the old lady, stood in front of the old lady, and gave a salute, "Miao'er knows."

Steward Su also continued: "Don't worry, the old lady, the slave will assist the eldest lady well." ”

After hearing this, the old lady nodded: "Then Miao'er will go back to the yard to recuperate first, and I will arrange the matter of transferring manpower with Mama Gu first." ”

Su Miao moved the old lady to worry about everything, and she really just made herself a reputation.

Seeing the busyness of the old lady and Steward Su, Su Miao also thought that she would help tomorrow.

said goodbye to the old lady, and Su Miao and Steward Su left together.

......

A courtyard on the other side of the capital.

Xiao Yexiu stood in the hall with a cold face and his hands on his hands, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Tiannan?"

The man in blue on the side pondered for a moment and returned: "It must be greedy for fun and ran away again, don't be angry, Tiannan knows how to measure, and he will definitely come back soon." ”

After Su Miao left, Xiao Yexiu quietly turned around and left while the homeless people were sharing food, and on the way back, he didn't find Tiannan hidden in the shadows behind him, so there was a scene of coming back and asking Tianbei coldly.

Xiao Yexiu thought of the deer-like woman he saw outside the temple in the morning.

As soon as Tiannan came back from outside, he saw the contemplative appearance of his seventh master, and Tianbei, who originally wanted to remind Tiannan, was also curious when he saw him smiling with a look that I knew everything, and glanced at his own master, decisively and quietly moved to Tianbei's side, biting his ear: "What do you mean by laughing?"

Tianbei seemed to have found a partner, and suddenly became even more interested.

"I'll tell you, when I was guarding our master outside the temple this morning, I saw ......"

Before Tiannan finished his sentence, he saw Xiao Yexiu's calm black face that was about to drip water, and the cold voice came into the ears of Tiannan and Tianbei.

"You're back. Xiao Yexiu noticed it as early as the moment Tiannan's footsteps stepped into the courtyard, and he endured it without saying a word, just like to see what this guy was going to show.

Tiannan instantly felt that he had fallen into the ice cellar, trembled, and instantly coaxed: "Master, master, I was wrong, I was wrong." I really got down to business. ”

Tianbei suppressed the curiosity in his heart, and was hooked by half of Tiannan's words like a cat scratching, and he felt uncomfortable.

Xiao Yexiu's eyes pierced Tiannan's body straight: "Oh? Then tell me, what did you do?"

Tiannan raised his hands to show his innocence, "Really, master, I followed that girl in Tsing Yi all the way today." ”

"What are you doing with others?" Xiao Yexiu's eyes became even colder.

"Originally, I was suspicious of her, how could a boudoir woman suddenly say that she would give porridge. I was afraid that she was some kind of bad person, so I followed. ”

If Su Miao was here, listening to this sentence, she would definitely jump up and give this kid a shave.

Who are these people, they are suspicious of good people.

Tiannan glanced at his grandfather, and when he saw that his expression was relaxed, he knew that what he had done was what Xiao Yexiu had in mind. Knowing that he was exempted from this punishment, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and couldn't help complaining: He also said that he didn't care, but now it's exposed.

Continue to make persistent efforts: "I followed all the way to the gate of General Su's Mansion, and I found out that the woman this morning was General Su's daughter-in-law, and she was the eldest lady of General Su's Mansion, Su Miao. ”

Xiao Yexiu nodded secretly with satisfaction, but his face was silent, this guy finally did one thing right by himself.

still said with a cold face: "What is your fault, remember to reflect on it, okay, retreat." ”

Tiannan hurriedly fled, and Tianbei, who was anxious to know the truth, also retreated, and hurriedly chased Tianbei out.

Xiao Yexiu looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly, Tiannan and Tianbei can be regarded as growing up with him since he was a child, what kind of temperament he is, he also knows, because of this, the relationship between the three of them is not like a master-servant relationship, but a bit like a brother. Let them make trouble, they'll find out in the end anyway.

In an instant, he thought of the news from Tiannan, and said softly in his mouth: "General's Mansion, Su Miao." ”

Then, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
