The days passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, it was almost late autumn, and Tong Yan's hard work was finally not in vain, and he passed the assessment of the second-class apprentice with great enthusiasm, which made Su Hao quite pleased, and finally did not lose his face. It's just that the rumors in the embroidery workshop are even worse, and even the childish face who doesn't hear anything outside the window knows a thing or two.

When he first heard the rumors, Tong Yan didn't care, but after a long time, when he heard several versions, Tong Yan was a little uneasy. That's right, she entered the embroidery workshop because of Su Hao's relationship, and was "specially taken care of" by the steward, and now she is only a second-class apprentice, and there is a separate "special" cubicle, but she really doesn't have the same relationship with Su Hao, let alone the same relationship with the steward and the shopkeeper Qiu, right?

Tong Yan spit bitter water indignantly at Miss Yin in the pink compartment, and for a whole morning, she didn't even touch the embroidery needle. Miss Yin didn't believe that Tong Yan and Su Ershao were ordinary friends at first, after all, the young master of the East family had come to see Tong Yan in person that day, although it was only for a glance.

Later, Miss Yin believed it, because Tong Yan was disrespectful, dissatisfied, and disdainful of Su Hao in her words, and even had an expectation that Su Hao would get out of her sight early. But Tong Yan still kept nagging, so Miss Yin began to persuade Tong Yan not to pay too much attention to the rumors, after all, she is indeed a special existence in the embroidery workshop.

Obviously, Tong Yan did not take Miss Yin's suggestion, and still poured bitter water, telling Su Hao's various childish behaviors. Miss Yin was a little helpless, the second young master of the owner was really as unbearable as Tong Yan said, how could he kindly put Tong Yan into the embroidery workshop without any foundation.

In the end, Miss Yin had fallen into a mess, and she only felt that Tong Yan was now completely in a state of magic barrier, and she couldn't save Tong Yan anymore, so she only nodded silently and continued to do embroidery work in her hands.

Tong Yan, who had been nagging all morning, saw that Miss Yin almost ignored herself, and she had no interest in pouring bitter water, looking at the blank embroidered handkerchief and the dustpan on the side, only to realize that she had wasted a morning like this. Well, I promised Su Hao that within a month after passing the second-class apprentice assessment, he would pass the third-class apprentice assessment. Tong Yan wailed in his heart, but he still picked up the needle and thread and embroidered it according to the pattern.

Su Hao, who stayed in the silk village to check the account book, sneezed two more loudly, Su Hao rubbed his nose and tightened the big snees on his body. Is it already so cold?

Shopkeeper Qiu asked with some worry on the side: "Second Shao, it's been cold recently, aren't you suffering from the wind chill?" Shall I get a doctor for you? ”

Su Hao raised his eyes to look at the shopkeeper Qiu who was still sweating on his forehead after taking off his big hat, it wasn't cold, who did he provoke when he sneezed this morning? Or is someone speaking ill of him behind his back again?

It's been a morning! This girl can really say, could it be that she just said bad things about him this morning? Su Hao secretly rolled his eyes in his heart and continued to look down at the account.

Su Hao glanced at him inexplicably, and he didn't reply to Shopkeeper Qiu's words, Shopkeeper Qiu began to wonder if he had said something wrong.

Just as Shopkeeper Qiu was thinking, a Xiao Si opened the curtain, looked in, and shook the letter in his hand towards Shopkeeper Qiu. Shopkeeper Qiu looked at Su Hao, who didn't raise his head, walked over to take the letter, and waved Xiao Si to retreat. Turning over the envelope, it was written by Master Su to Er Shao.

Su Hao still didn't look up, but asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Shopkeeper Qiu respectfully handed over the letter: "It's a letter from the master." ”

Su Hao's hand shook: "The old man gave it to me?" "Well, counting the time, I did stay in Donglin for a longer time, but I won't be urged by the old man, right?

"Yes, Er Shao, it was written to you by the master." Ignoring Su Hao's address to the owner, Shopkeeper Qiu handed the letter to Su Hao.

Su Hao took the letter, rubbed his nose, and pondered whether to open it now. Don't think about it, the old man must have scolded him first, and then he didn't go back to Beijing before he asked him to go back to Beijing, and then he taught him seriously, and finally threw a cruel sentence.

Seeing that Su Hao didn't open the letter immediately, Shopkeeper Qiu thought that Su Hao must be hindered by being here, which was not very convenient, so he took the initiative to retreat.

Su Hao nodded with satisfaction, he was really a sensible shopkeeper. Only then did he open the letter and shake it open.

Shaking the five pieces of letter paper in his hand, Su Hao pursed his lips, how could the old man be so reluctant, he wasted so much pen and ink, a whole five pieces of paper! It's unprecedented!

Looking at what was written in the letter, sure enough, first all kinds of swearing without dirty words, then reprimanding him for not returning to Beijing immediately after receiving the previous letter, followed by earnest teachings, the old man's uniform rhythm, he had expected it a long time ago. But it's only two pages.

Continuing next, the old man began to introduce to him the age, conduct, appearance, and so on of the young lady of a certain family.

Wait, Miss Some, what's that saying? Su Hao was stunned for a moment and looked at it again. This is the sixth lady of the Yang family, the largest salt merchant in Shudi, and the youngest daughter of the Yang family!

Su Hao hurriedly looked down, and after the old man praised the eldest lady of the Yang family, he still unexpectedly threw out a cruel sentence: If Su Hao's figure is still not seen before the New Year, then the marriage between Su Hao and Miss Yang Liu will be decided by the family.

Su Hao suddenly felt that he was really sick, and he was cold, but his palms and foreheads were sweating.

Su Hao is already twenty, but after all, he is not the one in charge of the family's business, so his marriage The master of the Su family also turned a blind eye, as long as Su Hao did not do anything to ruin the reputation of the Su family, he would go. Now that he suddenly proposed a marriage with the Yang family, Su Hao was indeed frightened.

The Yang family is the largest salt merchant in Shu, and their status in terms of wealth is not under the Su family. And Miss Yang Liu is the pearl of the Yang family's palm, which can be described as the kind that is afraid of falling in her hand and afraid of melting in her mouth. Now the old man wants him to discuss marriage with the Yang family, which is definitely a conspiracy. If this marriage is really successful, maybe even the family business will be transferred to him.

Thinking about his eldest brother's resentment towards him at that time, and then thinking about his mother's embarrassment between his two brothers at that time, Su Hao clenched his fists.

And the other party is Miss Yang Jialiu, he has never even met someone he has never met, although the old man said that she was impeccable in his heart, but he couldn't even mention his interest in seeing this person, and he talked about getting married. Although he never thought of finding a so-called person who is in love, Su Hao really can't look down on this kind of blind marriage and dumb marriage.

Putting the letter back in, Su Hao rubbed his face, Well, it seems that this time I have to succumb to the old man's obscenity, and I have to pack my luggage and prepare to go back to Beijing. Just throwing Tong Yan's family here, Su Hao was still a little uneasy.

After all, he promised Shi Sanshao and Miao Yuyu to take care of Tong Yan's family, no, he can't say that he doesn't care about it. Su Hao found a good reason for his unease.
