Chapter 51. Have one's hand in the till
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything for a while, Su Musha stopped asking and whispered a few words to Chuncao. Chuncao walked into the stove room in response, and after a while, he brought out a cup of hot herb tea, fed it to Xinxin's mouth, and said softly: "Drink some, be careful of scalding." ”
Xinxin didn't drink it from her hand, but took the teacup and took several sips in one go, and then "hiccuped" and burped loudly.
As soon as the cold wind came out of his stomach, the love in his heart also settled down a little, and he said with a sob: "Aunt Su, grandma doesn't allow me and my mother to live at home, and she wants to rob the store." Yesterday, my mother was guarding the store during the day, and a bunch of bad people came to block the door, so my mother had to close the store, and they just patted the door outside, and they took pictures until late before leaving......"
"And after that?" Su Musha's expression became even more severe, "How did you run out?" Where's your mother? ”
"My mother didn't sleep all night, and she didn't close her eyes and stare for a while when I woke up. I took advantage of her sleep and got out of the grass hole in the corner of the backyard wall. Aunt Su, I don't know who to go to, please save us......" Xinxin raised her hand to cover her eyes and cried, "You go and talk to that heroic brother, he is so powerful, he will definitely be able to save our ......"
The "heroic brother" in her heart is undoubtedly Su Liang, listening to her mention Su Liang's trust and dependence momentum, Su Musha really didn't expect that the mean-speaking Su Dao Chang could win the hearts of children so much.
It's no wonder, after all, it was Su Liang who came forward and rescued Xinxin from Di Yuanwai.
But it is obviously not a good way to find Su Liang at this time, who knows where he ran and what task he went to.
"Xinxin, don't cry yet, tell me the matter slowly. Do you know who is causing trouble? ”
Su Musha's calm and calm voice slightly stabilized her heart, she forced a whimper, and whispered: "Three, three days ago, grandma suddenly took her sister-in-law, and also, the owner of the opposite shop, Wu ...... Wu," she hesitated. After all, I couldn't say anything unpleasant, "Uncle Wu, when I arrived at the store, I said that my mother didn't abide by women's morals." Being a widow can't stand loneliness, seducing something, something...... I want to open the ancestral hall and retire my mother, and let my mother hand over the house deed and key of the restaurant......"
It's too ugly, and she can't say it. Or he didn't understand it at all, so he pinched his head and removed the tail, but Su Musha still understood it, and secretly scolded Mrs. Wen for being shameless, and actually splashing this kind of dirty water on her daughter-in-law, obviously ignoring the life and death of this mother and daughter.
She understood why she would say in her heart that the restaurant run by Sister-in-law Gu was going to be robbed, after all, she was running it for her husband's family, if she was really taken off by Mrs. Wen, then she would no longer be a member of the Wen family. Naturally, the restaurant will have to be returned.
But what she didn't understand was that the grandmother of her heart didn't like the mother and daughter for a day or two, not only did she not have a good reputation for Sister-in-law Gu, but she also sold the little girl as a fire maid before. But Mrs. Wen knows that if she doesn't rely on Sister-in-law Gu, she and her daughter can only drink the northwest wind, so there are people who don't like it, but they can't kill them all.
So why did you do so much this time? Is it to find a backer to rely on?
It won't be the "Uncle Wu, the owner of the opposite shop" in Shicai's heart.
"Xinxin, who is Uncle Wu?" Su Musha asked.
"He, he's opened a restaurant on our side. It is made of Jingzhou cuisine. Xinxin didn't know much, and he couldn't even say the name of Boss Wu, only that the people nearby called him "Wu Lao Er".
"My mother won't let me talk to him, and I won't go to his shop." Xinxin bit her lower lip, "But he always comes to our door, and every time he comes, he looks around, always staring at his mother." However, I haven't been here much in the last half month. ”
Although Xinxin is still young, he also vaguely understands some things. I was bored with Wu Laoer's behavior, and every time I saw that person, I silently muttered in my heart, hoping that he would leave quickly and not stay longer.
Su Musha's expression gradually became solemn, and her heart's words only showed a half-clawed information, but she had a bad feeling from the bottom of her heart: this matter is not just a matter of discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Wu Lao Er has always coveted Gu Sister, this will be mixed in, maybe what conditions have been reached with the old woman.
Does one win soul, and the other side gets wealth?
"Xinxin, I'll go see your mother, you ......" Su Musha groaned, it stands to reason that she should be sent back to Sister-in-law Gu, but if Yihong Weicui is really like Xinxin said, someone comes to make trouble twice in three days, then it is better to let the little girl take refuge from the limelight here.
"I, I want to go back with you, I'm afraid they will bully my mother." Xinxin sniffed and plucked up courage to say.
As soon as Xinxin said this, Su Musha didn't dare to let her go, so as not to hurt her by mistake, and persuaded softly at the moment: "You obediently follow Sister Chuncao and Little Cucumber, and wait for your mother to pick you up," she looked at Xinxin's lowered head, and admonished again, "Don't run around, you have to greet them wherever you go." ”
"I, I won't run around," said with a lack of confidence, and after looking at Su Musha's gaze, he lowered his head and explained in a panic, "I came out to leave a note for my mother...... I know, I listen to Aunt Su. ”
"Chuncao, you take care of the dim sum, wait a while for the little cucumber to get up, you should open a store, what should you do."
*****
On Baogu Road, Gu's sister-in-law held a large head lock that was not light, and hurriedly closed the door of the store of "Yihong Cui", and her trembling hands were about to padlock the lock.
She stayed up all night, she couldn't stand it anymore, closed her eyes and slept for a while when it was almost dawn, and woke up to find that her daughter was gone.
Sister-in-law Gu was really frightened, the changes in the past few days made her a little soldier, and her first reaction was that her mother-in-law found someone to rob her heart, but the tables and chairs against the door of the store were still the same, stacked like arhats pressed over the lintel, and it was impossible for anyone to enter.
She panicked, but fortunately, after turning around, she finally found a note left by her daughter, which said that she was going to find Aunt Su for help. Sister-in-law Gu took a look, took the lock, hurriedly moved away the tables and chairs that resisted outsiders, and left the store to lock it, she was in a hurry, her hand was uncertain, and she had missed the keyhole several times, and suddenly heard someone behind her say:
"You little slut, where are you going early in the morning? Are you thinking about escaping? ”
This voice made Gu's sister-in-law feel cold, but the quasi-head in her hand was much stronger, and with a click, the door was locked. She turned back to face the comer, and forced herself to calmly greet, "Mother, are you here?" ”
The person who came was Gu's sister-in-law's mother-in-law, she lived to this age, what her mother's surname was, the juniors no longer knew it, and they all called her "Aunt Wen" or "Mother-in-law Wen".
Although Sister-in-law Gu was spicy outside, she was still stunned by her mother-in-law, her eyes were down and she stared at the steps, pretending not to hear the words.
