Su Yu turned her head to Su Dayu and said, "Sister, let's throw her out." "This Yu Mei has nothing to do with her family, even if she dies, then don't die at her doorstep.

When Su A-Niang heard this, she pressed Su Yu's hand.

Su Yu frowned and looked at Su Aniang: "Mother, you don't want to take her in, do you?" ”

I saw Su A-Niang shaking her head and saying, "The big girl is about to get married, let her rest, I'll come." After she finished speaking, she thought of something again, looked at Su Yu with a sad face, and said in a low voice, "Alas, forget it, you can also go and rest, after all, it is also the person who said kiss." It's just that this Yu Mei has a little difficulty dragging her alone.

However, she didn't want this matter to interfere with the reputation of the two children, so she gritted her teeth and walked over, she grabbed Yu Mei's arm, Yu Mei woke up with a scream, and then she covered her arm and looked at Su Aniang pitifully: "Sister, why are you pinching me?" ”

The scream drew back the crowd that had dispersed.

Su A-Niang was taken aback, and immediately said, "I didn't." ”

As she was explaining, Yu Mei pulled her sleeves up, and Bai Huahua's arm was exposed, with a deep nail mark pinched on it, and she was about to bleed.

Su A-Niang was stunned, she didn't do it.

Of course she didn't do it, it was Yu Mei who pinched herself, Yu Mei was still a little proud in her heart, and it was very easy to deal with Su Aniang. Leave this mark, and then rely on Su Aniang, anyway, as long as she has a hard tone, this little woman will definitely have no master, and then become obedient, which was the case before.

Scold.

Su Yu sneered lightly: "Who can you fool with this self-directed trick?" After she finished speaking, she looked up at the crowd, her eyes were deliberately looking at the women, and then she said to Yu Mei: "Public, who do you want to seduce when you expose this white flower arm and flesh?" ”

Before Yu Mei could speak, Su Yu raised her voice again: "My father is dead, you said that you are pregnant, this is really a joke, we don't recognize this foolish account." ”

When the women heard this, they immediately took their men home.

When Yu Mei heard Su Yu's words, her face turned red with anger, and she pointed to Su Yu's face for a long time.

The people around dispersed, Su Yu walked to Yu Mei's side, and said coldly: "I haven't counted the fire in the Su family's village with you, but you came to the door, which is just right." ”

Yu Mei's pupils shrank suddenly, "You, how do you know?" ”

Su Yu squatted down, pinched Yu Mei's chin and said, "Originally, I wanted to let you go, but it seems that you are unwilling." Su Yu chuckled lightly after speaking, "I'm afraid that the people of the yamen are very happy to see you, after all, maybe you still know the whereabouts of Zhu Shizi." ”

Yu Mei suddenly held Su Yu's hand, and then pressed it on her stomach, she said in horror: "The child is fake, you touch it, it's fake, I, I, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously." ”

Su Yu's hand touched the soft cotton, and she said that Yu Mei's abdomen was not right, it turned out to be because of this.

Yu Mei barely squeezed out a smile, but the smile was more ugly than crying, she took advantage of Su Yu's distraction, and ran away, never daring to come back.

Su Daniu walked over, looked out the door, and asked Su Yu, "Just let her go?" She was a little unhappy, in the past few years in Shudi, Yu Mei did not make it difficult for her and her mother.

Su Yu looked out of her eyes and asked Su Daniu: "Think about it, if she escaped like this, she will live in fear in the future, running around for a living, and she can be regarded as a fugitive, this is called living miserably, let her live like this, isn't it better than being sent to prison?" ”

Su Daniu thought about it seriously, it was really this reason, and she was happy.

The main reason is that Su Yu doesn't want to toss with Yu Mei anymore, if Yu Mei dares to make trouble again, or has any bad ideas, then she will definitely not be soft again, anyway, Yu Mei claims to be her concubine, and it is not her family who has the final say on whether to buy or sell when the time comes?

She easily spared Yu Mei this time, mainly because she didn't want to get involved in Zhu Shizi's affairs anymore, who knows if anyone is staring at Yu Mei.

She didn't want to do that again in the short term.

After Yu Mei left, Su Yu put her mind on the wild lotus, she hadn't drunk lotus root soup for a long time, and fried lotus root slices, especially wild lotus root, the taste of fried and eaten was really amazing, Su Yu liked to eat it very much.

Wild lotus root and pork ribs, the Su family drinks lotus root soup at night, the fragrance wafts far away, and the surrounding neighbors smell the smell and are hungry.

It was probably because this soup was too fragrant, and within a few days, the reputation of the Su family's lotus root soup spread. Some acquaintances deliberately stepped on the rice to come over, just to rub the rice, and if they were not familiar, they thought of a way to get acquainted with the Su family.

Su Yu didn't expect that just a pot of soup would become like this.

Two days later, there was a fat man with a rich appearance outside the door of the Su family, the Su family did not see anyone, the fat man knocked on the door, it explained the intention, he came to buy soup recipes.

It's lotus root soup.

This thing has been very famous recently, and it doesn't have money or land to buy it at all, this fat man's brain is good, no, he came to the door with a silver ticket.

The fat man was polite, and told Su Yu about it, but Su Yu shook his head and refused, the recipe for lotus root soup is a trivial matter, the key is to have lotus root, but lotus root is a seasonal thing, how can it be available all year round.

The fat man said with a bitter face: "Recently, the business of the restaurant has not been very good, so I point to this thing to attract customers, Miss Su, otherwise, if your mother is too little two thousand taels, then, how about five thousand taels, this is already the highest price, and I really can't get any more." ”

Su Yu smiled and shook his head: "It's not a matter of silver, you better go back." ”

There are not many wild lotus roots, and it is a little difficult to do business, and besides, the pearl matter has been on track, and the money earned there is enough for Su Yu to spend in her life, and she doesn't need to touch the menu of the restaurant again.

The fat man's face was even more bitter, he refused to leave, and persuaded Su Yu vigorously.

As he was talking, there was another knock on the door of the Su family, and I saw a middle-aged man in his forties stretching in half of his body, and said to the rich and fat man with a courteous face: "Dongjia, the person surnamed Zhang is here again, saying that he is in a hurry to find you." ”

Rich and fat people don't

The rich and fat man waved his hand impatiently and said, "I didn't see that I was busy." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "But the surnamed Zhang knelt down outside the door, the owner, here, there are people watching around, just tell her a few words." ”

When Su Yu heard this, he walked towards the door, and when the rich and fat man saw it, he followed with thick legs, and he explained to Su Yu as he walked: "You are resting in the house, and I will solve this matter immediately." ”

Su Yu paused when he heard this, and said, "Don't let people kneel outside my house, if outsiders see it, they will think that our Su family is bullying people." Su Yu's voice was gentle, but the meaning of the words was extremely strong.

The rich and fat man nodded again and again: "Yes, yes." ”

As he spoke, he trotted out of the door, and as soon as he went out, he pointed to the person kneeling outside the door: "Kneel what kneel, get up quickly, you are not ashamed, I am ashamed, your brother eats overlord meals in my store, I will not let people go if I don't come over with silver, and it is useless for you to kneel badly!" ”

The man kneeling outside the door didn't seem to get up.

The rich and fat man snorted coldly: "If everyone is like you, do I still want to open a store?" Eat a meal and kneel once, heh, don't you have food to eat every day when you kneel every day? ”

The man outside the door kowtowed again, and it was a woman who knelt down and kowtowed, and she begged in a low voice: "Boss, please, that table of food is not eaten by my brother, but by the family of Young Master Chang of the Chang family, my brother is young and ignorant, so he ate a bite of meat, and they relied on that meal on my brother's head, you know this." Please, spare my brother this time, we really can't afford to pay for these hundreds of taels of food. ”

As he spoke, he began to sob.

The rich and fat man's face sank: "I don't care about this, the young master of Changjiatang said that it was your brother's guest, and everyone said so." ”

The woman kowtowed again: "Shopkeeper, our Zhang family is just a small family, and we don't even dare to enter the door of your restaurant, how dare you have a treat, you can check the matter and give my brother justice." ”

The rich and fat man is also bitter in his heart, how can he not know about this, but the Chang family, who has recently been favored, how dare he, a small restaurant owner, come to the door to collect debts, it is not that he has not been there, but he was kicked out. He dared to open a restaurant in Beijing, naturally there was a backstage, but the backstage didn't matter, he went to the Chang family to ask for the guilt for a meal, isn't this asking for hardship.

Simply, he detained the last kid who was left behind, locked it up for a few days, and it was good to get angry.

Those hundreds of taels of silver have been lost, can he not be in pain!

At this time, Su Yu had already walked out, because she was a little familiar with the female voice outside, as if she had heard it somewhere, but she was not sure, so she wanted to come out and take a look.

It's a pity that the head of the woman kneeling on the ground has been lowered, and Su Yu didn't see her face clearly.

When the rich and fat man saw Su Yu come out, he smiled with a smile on his face: "Miss Su, she is about to leave, I promise not to delay you." ”

The woman kneeling on the ground immediately raised her head when she saw the rich and fat man talking to another person in a flattering voice, and she thought that maybe she begged this person to work.

As soon as she looked up, she was dumbfounded.

On the other side, Su Yu's eyes also widened a little, and she called out with some uncertainty: "Little Sister Peach? ”

Zhang Xiaotao looked at Su Yu in a daze: "You are, you are ......" She seemed to recognize Su Yu, but she didn't dare to be sure, because Su Yu was not at all like before, skinny bean sprouts, and now Su Yu is so good-looking and noble, she doesn't dare to recognize it.

Su Yu showed a smile, she stepped forward and helped Zhang Xiaotao up, she patted the ash on Zhang Xiaotao's trouser leg again, and asked, "Sister Xiaotao, why are you here?" Su Yu didn't know that Second Uncle Zhang's family followed Changzhi County to Beijing, she had only seen Chang Qian, and Chang Qian didn't know that Second Uncle Zhang was related to Su Yu, besides, Second Uncle Zhang's family was just a small servant in the eyes of the Chang family, who would care?

Zhang Xiaotao lowered her head and said, "I'm here to find this shopkeeper." Her voice was so low that it seemed difficult to talk about.

Su Yu looked at the shopkeeper, then at Zhang Xiaotao, and then said, "Let's go into the house and talk." With that, he took Zhang Xiaotao and the rich and fat man into the house together.

The three of them sat in the west wing, and Su Yu made them tea again, and then asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

The rich and fat man wiped the cold sweat on his head and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding, Miss Su, if you can sell me Fangzi, I will politely send this girl's brother back." ”

Su Yu smiled slightly: "What kind of misunderstanding?" ”

Zhang Xiaotao wanted to explain that Su Yu asked her to drink tea first, which was only rich and fat in advance.

The rich and fat man said simply: "Here's the thing, this Miss Zhang's brother booked the most expensive private room in my restaurant, served a few extremely expensive dishes, and took people to eat, but no one paid the bill." The girl's brother left it for us. ”

Su Yu looked at Zhang Xiaotao: "Is this true?" ”

Zhang Xiaotao nodded first, and then shook his head: "What he said is true, but this private room was ordered by Mrs. Chang, and the meal was eaten by the young master of the Chang family. ”

Su Yu understood it, but she didn't understand: "How could you have something to do with the Chang family and move to Beijing?" ”

Zhang Xiaotao told the previous story, and later said: "I thought that Shangjing was here to enjoy happiness, but I didn't expect that Changzhi County was no longer an official, and my father became the guardian of Changfu, and we didn't sign a deed of sale, but in the eyes of the masters and young ladies of the Chang family, we are slaves, and they use us as maids." Zhang Xiaotao cried as she spoke.

She stretched out her hands and said, "Look at my hands, they are full of needle eyes." I used to be in Zhangjia Village, even if I did embroidery, it was not like doing it day and night now. My body is the most consumed in Changfu! ”

Yes, Zhang Xiaotao has lost weight, just like ordinary girls, and she can't see her previous fat at all.

Su Yu listened

When Su Yu heard this, she was silent for a while, and asked, "In that case, why do you want to stay in the Chang family?" The Chang family treats you as a slave, haven't you told them in Changzhi County, don't they care? ”

It is also said to be the grace of life.

Zhang Xiaotao smiled bitterly: "I took care of it at the beginning, but then I didn't care about it after many times, some villains said bad things about us behind our backs, and the Changzhi County family thought that our Zhang family forced them with this kindness, and they didn't see each other a few times later." ”

Zhang Xiaotao's voice became lower and lower: "I didn't dare to tell them about my brother, only the three brothers and sisters of the Zhang family knew." Originally, my father planned not to work in Chang's house in the future, and the family has the strength to do it, so why can't I do it? But since Chang Qian's son got the holy grace, his father felt that the opportunity had come, and he wanted his brother to follow Chang Qian's son's side, so that he could have a future in the future, and then he didn't mention leaving. ”

Su Yu didn't know what to say, the second uncle wanted to make his family better, and now that the opportunity came, he was naturally reluctant to leave.

After the rich and fat man knew that Zhang Xiaotao was a relative of Miss Su, his little eyes rolled, and he knew that the opportunity had come.

Su Yu said to the rich and fat man: "Shopkeeper, you see that I have a guest, it is inconvenient to receive you, I will come to visit us in the future, what do you think?" ”

The rich and fat man looked happy, "Good, good." ”

After that, he said goodbye, and after he left, Su Yu took Zhang Xiaotao to see Su A-Niang, and Su A-Niang cried again when she saw her mother's relatives.

And Su A-Niang knew that the second brother's family was in Beijing, so she was anxious to come to the door to meet.

On the other side, after the rich and fat man returned to the restaurant, he not only released Zhang Xiaotao's brother, but also took a bath and ate food, and then sent it to the Su family.

In this way, Su Yu owes him a favor, the money is easy to repay, but the favor is not easy, with this human relationship, he doesn't worry that Su Yu will not hand over the recipe and materials of the lotus root soup to him.

He personally sent someone to send Zhang Xiaotao's brother to Su's house, and when he knocked on the door, the door of Su's house opened, and he saw Su Yu with Su A-Niang, who was neatly dressed, and Su Daniu, thinking that Zhang Xiaotao, who had washed his face, seemed to be going out.

When Zhang Xiaotao saw her brother, she pounced at once: "Brother, you have lost weight." "Zhang Xiaotao has three elder brothers, and this one is the youngest.

Brother Zhang San looked at Zhang Xiaotao and smiled innocently: "I'm fine." ”

Only then did he take a look at Su A-Niang and the others, Su A-Niang he recognized, it hadn't changed much, and it was the same as before, but Su Da Niu and Su Yu had changed their appearance, they were smart and good-looking, he just glanced at it, his face turned red, and he hurriedly lowered his head: "Hello aunt, good cousins." ”

Su A-Niang saw Brother Zhang San, and her face was happy: "Why are you here, are you here to pick up Xiao Tao?" ”

Zhang Xiaotao didn't tell Su A-Niang that her brother was locked up in the restaurant, and Su Yu didn't say it, Su A-Niang didn't know about it.

So Su A-Niang thought that it was Brother Zhang San who came to pick up people.

Brother Zhang San answered, didn't say yes or no, the people from the rich and fat faction said to Su Yu, Su Yu said: "I wrote down this matter." The man smiled and walked away.

Su Xiaobao is in the academy and is not at home, so there is no him this time.

The Zhang family lives in the lower room of Changfu, a small courtyard of Erjin, which is quite spacious, and when Su Yu and the others went, Zhang's second uncle was quarreling with a mother-in-law in Changfu.

The woman was very powerful: "Don't look at what you are, a good citizen is not a good citizen, a subordinate is not a subordinate person, crowded in our place, what is it." He also said that he was the benefactor of Master Chang, phew, and he didn't take a mirror to look at, just your virtue, and you still want to climb up, but there is no door! ”

Second Uncle Zhang: "You dead mother-in-law, what kind of ability is it to be reckless with me here, you have suffered a loss under your wife, you are angry with us, but you are a cheap slave, what is there to be proud of, the family has a son, to put it nicely, you have been a slave all your life, your children and grandchildren have been affected, for generations, you can't even participate in the imperial examination, what is there to be proud of!" ”

The war continues.

The mother-in-law was so angry by Second Uncle Zhang's words that her liver hurt, and she pounced on Second Uncle Zhang to beat her, and Second Uncle Zhang was not to be outdone, she used to be a farmer and had great strength.

The two fought.

Su Yu touched Zhang Xiaotao: "Don't just look at the excitement, go up and help." ”
