Chapter Eighty-Six: The Old House

Su Hao was slightly surprised, "Dad, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, Miss Zhao hasn't discussed marriage yet, or call her sisters......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, and came to his senses, his father was trying to match him with Zhao Zhitong!

The Zhao family in Jiangzhou has long been lost, but Li Shilang loves this granddaughter very much. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Dad, the fourth sister is also Li Shilang's granddaughter." Su Hao directly pointed out what he thought, "Aunt Li has long been a member of our Su family, why do you want to marry Li Shilang's family?" ”

Su De's eyes were a little dazed when he heard this, and he sighed for a long time before he said, "...... Zhitong is a member of the Zhao family, your mother-in-law passed away early, and there are no relatives in the Zhao Guogong Mansion, this is the only thing a father can do for your mother-in-law. ”

Although Su Hao didn't know too much about what happened back then, he had been raised under the knees of the Zhao family since he was a child, and with the analysis of the court situation and his father's attitude over the years, he could guess more or less.

There is a great deal of mystery about my mother's death.

"But ......" Su Hao hesitated, "After all, the Zhao family in Jiangzhou has an inextricable relationship with the Zhao State Mansion, if the Su family gets involved, His Royal Highness the King of Ling will be in a dilemma." “

Su De didn't expect his son to see it so clearly, and his expression couldn't hide his surprise, but he immediately frowned again, and said solemnly: "The Zhao family in Jiangzhou is just a fallen merchant, don't say this in the future." ”

Su Hao immediately came to his senses and said yes.

Perhaps the decline of the Zhao family in Jiangzhou is also related to the emperor, but now the Zhao Mansion is no longer a threat, and the emperor will not pay attention to the descendants of the Zhao family next to him. As long as you don't pick the spot, Zhao Zhitong's identity is Li Shilang's granddaughter, and the emperor may not be aware of it.

Su Ximei had already left the house in a dignified manner and got into the carriage parked at the back of the street. Fourth Brother Tong drove the carriage and went all the way to the south city gate.

There is a small village on the bank of the Luohe River outside the South City Gate, there are more than 100 families in the village, the carriage is parked in a brick house at the entrance of the village, Su Ximei got down from the carriage, Ling Xiang stepped forward and knocked on the door.

There was a "squeak" and the door opened softly.

"Miss, the door is unlocked, and there's no one in the house." Ling Xiang took a look, and the room was empty, only a wooden bed and a table and stool.

Of course, Su Ximei knew that this was an empty room, because this room was where she once lived.

In the next room, an old man heard the sound and walked out slowly with a cane.

"Who are you? The house has long been unoccupied. The old man raised his voice and asked.

Su Ximei knew him, he was Uncle He, "Uncle, I was entrusted to find the girl who lives here, do you know where she went?" ”

He Bo walked over and glanced at the empty house, "I heard that I went back to my hometown to get married, if you want to find someone, go to Yu County, Jiangzhou." ”

"She's from Yu County?" Su Ximei asked rhetorically.

"My wife heard her say that."

"Then did anyone come to her after she returned to her hometown?"

He Bo frowned and thought for a moment, "It seems that someone has come, saying that someone from her hometown has taken some of her clothes away." “

Su Ximei probably had a bottom in her heart, this person should have been sent by Zhang Cheng.

If she doesn't take her clothes away, how can it be said that she left on her own initiative.

"Do you remember what the people who came here were like?" Su Ximei continued to ask.

He Bo was a little impatient, "How can I remember so much from an old man, let alone so long......"

Speaking of this, there was a sudden pause, and Uncle He seemed to remember something, and his expression was a little puzzled.

"But this girl's marriage was too sudden, the day before she said that she would take the two of us to the city to pick a piece of cloth, and she didn't come back the next night, I thought she went to Zhang's house, but it didn't take two days for someone to come and say that this girl went back to her hometown to marry, it was too sudden, and she didn't say hello, she also told my wife before, how the eldest young master of the Zhang family was, and it didn't become a couple."

Su Ximei's eyes sank when she heard this, and then she smiled again, "Maybe marrying the eldest young master of the Zhang family may not be a good marriage, she must have her own thoughts." ”

After hearing this, Uncle He also thought so, and after a few words, he heard the sound of a child crying, and Uncle He hurriedly returned to the house with a cane.

The door was wide open, and Su Ximei walked in with her feet raised, her fingertips gently brushing the table and chairs, leaving her handprints on a thick layer of dust.

The bed was still the same bed, and there were no cupboards in this room, only a table and a bench, and she was really mean to save money.

Su Ximei stood still for a while, turned around and asked Fourth Brother Tong to help her take out the two taels of silver from the gap under the bed.

Su Ximei took the two taels of silver, and her hands and feet trembled a little.

This silver was originally planned to pull two better silk horses to make a long gown and give it to Zhang Cheng herself, she was thrifty, and even the two taels of silver at the bottom of the box were reluctant to use it on herself.

She was really sad at that time.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Ling Xiang saw that her young lady's expression was wrong, so she hurriedly asked with concern.

Su Ximei relieved herself and handed the broken silver in her hand to Ling Xiang, "Let's go to Zuiyun Tower for a big meal today." ”

Ling Xiang was taken aback, "Miss, this silver ......" This silver is not ours.

Su Ximei realized that she was excited and said that she had leaked her mouth.

"A year ago, I lent this girl two taels of silver, and it was this girl who asked me to come here to get the silver, and this silver is the money she repaid to me." Su Ximei explained without being salty.

The two girls only came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to serve Miss Seven a month ago, how could they know about the past.

Miss Seven explained, and they believed it outright.

And although Tong Hai felt that this explanation was a bit far-fetched, Miss Seven even had the silver ticket number of the Shunfeng ticket, and there was something he couldn't believe.

Su Ximei walked out, looked up at the hill in the distance of the village, and wondered where Zhang Cheng would bury her body, or throw it in a mass grave?

It seems that we still have to start with the Zhang family.

Rushing from the village to the capital, Su Ximei lifted the curtain and said, "Fourth brother, go to Mobaoxuan on Shanglin Street." “

"Great!" Tong Hai shook his whip in response.

Yuan Xiang held a box of dim sum and put it on the small table, "Miss, this is the honey and red date cake prepared by Chen's mother this morning, you can try it." ”

Su Ximei sat back, smiled and picked up a piece and took a bite, and her mouth was full of sweet fragrance.

The honey and jujube cake are integrated, smooth but not greasy, and melt in the mouth.

"How? Isn't it delicious? Yuan Xiang smashed it, and her mouth was about to flow out.

Su Ximei said: "Yes, it is indeed very novel to combine honey with red date cake, you two also try it?" ”

The two girls suddenly flashed their bright eyes, and one took one piece and another piece.

Su Ximei smiled helplessly, "The fourth brother hasn't eaten yet." “

Tong Hai heard Miss Seven's words through the curtain, and smiled heartily: "Ling Xiang has left a box for me this morning, which is a whole big box." ”

Yuan Xiang pursed her lips and said unconvinced: "That's for the tiger head, hum!" ”

When Tong Hai heard this, he laughed even more heartily. (To be continued.) )
