Chapter Fifty-Four: Nothing to Pull Out
Su Chen got up and looked at it, and found that two figures had walked in from the courtyard of the gate, and it turned out to be Bai Fengxian who had come to visit again.
It's only been a few days, why is he here again, is he still going to talk about the marriage contract?
Su Chen looked puzzled, after the last exchange, he didn't have a good impression of the old man.
Old man Bai walked slowly into the courtyard, looking at the courtyard full of spring, although it is not wide, but delicate and beautiful, the waste in the courtyard has been emptied, except for the bamboo and flowers, the mess is gone, very clean, and the desolation that I came to see a few days ago, there has been an obvious change.
"It seems that this kid is really changing." Old Man Bai's heart moved, his eyes looked at Su Chen, and he looked at it, whether it was his spirit or spirit, he was much better than before.
"Old man Bai, why are you here again?" Su Chen asked.
"It's not big or small, according to generation, you have to call Grandpa Bai when you meet, it's not too much!" The old white man reprimanded, the crutches touched the ground, although his body was a little rickety, but his eyes were shining, not cloudy, and there was no anger on his face.
Su Chen said indifferently: "If you have a friendship with the previous generation, you should indeed call Grandpa Bai, but since the decline of the Su family, you have not remembered the old love, what kind of care do you have for me, this friendship is gone, and the title of Grandpa Bai is not appropriate!" ”
This matter has been pressed in Su Chen's heart for a long time, although it was the former "Su Chen" who suffered at that time, not him, but the Bai family did not intervene later, and the marriage was silent, which meant regretting the marriage.
These hot and cold practices, even after his soul is pierced, he can feel some of them, and he doesn't have a good impression of the Bai family.
If it weren't for Su Chen's lack of other partners, he would never have contacted Bai Susu through Peng Jingqing to convey a signal to seek cooperation.
Old Man Bai snorted lightly: "Nonsense, after your father died in the Bai family, didn't the old man send someone to send silver, have you forgotten?" Your father was involved in the court dispute in the court and became a criminal minister, who dares to approach it openly? At the beginning, the old man could only send the steward to send a few hundred taels of silver, which was considered to be cared for, as the so-called emergency relief is not poverty relief, you have squandered all the silver in the past few years, and you have no reading talent, and you have no business acumen, resulting in a poor family and resentment of others? ”
"Before your Bai family, you gave silver?" Su Chen was a little surprised, and turned to look at Ling'er.
Yang Ling'er nodded: "Five years ago, once. ”
"Just once?" Su Chen was stunned, thinking that the Bai family was still a little picky!
Old Man Bai said coldly: "In this year, apart from your parents who can give you silver for free, who can give you silver for no reason?" Relatives? Friend? It's not that it's unreliable, but there's no obligation, and no one's money falls from the sky, after all, you still have to rely on yourself! ”
After Su Chen heard this, he wanted to ridicule a few words, but he shook his head helplessly, because this sentence is true, and no one is obliged to give you money! Poor people, there must be something to hate, if your family is poor, you can only find the reason from yourself, there is no need to complain, resentful rich friends do not take money to help you.
"Well, all that old is over, and I don't want to mention it again. Now Su Chen's heart is changing, and he is already a brand new Su Chen, and he doesn't have any friendship with each other. I don't know what happened to Old Man Bai's visit today? Su Chen didn't want to dwell on those things in the past, who was responsible for whom, who was more reasonable, and the reality of society lay in this.
"Come and see you, in addition, the prescription you gave that day is quite effective, thank you in person!"
Bai Fengxian smiled, last time before he left, he was a little disappointed with Su Chen's refusal, but Su Chen repaid his grievances with virtue, and took the initiative to give him a secret recipe for treating asthma.
Suddenly, I found that this kid not only knew some medical skills, but most importantly, that child's heart and kind character were commendable, so that this cunning old man like a fox accidentally discovered a quality that he lacked in himself.
The young man who was in the vortex of difficulties could give him a secret recipe so calmly for nothing, so that Bai Feng went back to think about it for a few days, but he couldn't figure it out, why was this?
The biggest characteristic of a smart person is that he is often smart, and he will consider the various motives and real thoughts of others in everything!
When this old fox Bai Fengxian figured out that Su Chen's move had no motive, just a simple act of repaying grievances with virtue, he couldn't help but sigh that this young man's conduct was indeed much stronger than himself!
Therefore, Bai Fengxian gave Su Chen a few more times, and this time, in the name of thanking him in person, he came to see him again, planning to sugar-coat the cannonball again and take down this grandson-in-law.
"You actually drank it, I thought that a cunning and suspicious person like you would just throw it away." Su Chen pursed his lips and smiled, anyway, he didn't have much friendship with the old man of the Bai family, so he spoke bluntly and didn't embellish it.
Bai Fengxian snorted lightly: "I don't trust you, but I can trust your ancestor's secret recipe!" ”
This duck's beak is so hard!
Su Chen stretched out his hand and said: "Since it has an effect, there is no need to thank you, whether to give some consultation money, you are the head of the Bai family, you are delicate and expensive, how can you get one hundred and eighty taels of consultation fees." ”
Bai Fengxian shook his head and said: "Young man, talk about money when you open your mouth and close your mouth, and it's also cheesy!" Besides, at that time, your kid said that it would be given away for free, what kind of consultation money did the old man give! ”
Su Chen was speechless, this is not only a duck's beak, but also an iron rooster, not a hair!
No wonder others say that the more money you can make, the more you slam the door!
"Then what else do we have to talk to?" Su Chen didn't want to talk to this old fox, so he opened the door and asked directly.
"The matter of the marriage contract needs to be discussed again." Bai Fengxian said lightly, feeling a little helpless, two days ago, the Ding family sent someone to propose to Bai Susu. Ding Jiaerlang's maternal uncle Yin Zhengxiong is stationed in Runzhou, in charge of local military power, coupled with the Ding family's strong financial resources and double coercion, Bai Fengxian also has a great headache and pressure.
Bai Feng first tested Bai Susu, and through the dialogue between her grandson and grandson, she also found out that she had no favorite object for other men, and if she rashly chose a man to be her son-in-law, Bai Susu would not agree, but would be self-defeating.
After thinking about it, Bai Fengxian still felt that Su Chen was the right candidate, after all, there was already a marriage contract between him and Bai Susu, which could be used as an excuse to reject the Ding family, but the premise was that Su Chen would nod his head and handle the marriage.
Su Chen shook his head and said: "It's nothing to discuss, I don't want to get involved, second, I have no relationship with Bai Susu, and third, I don't know where I will go in the future, I may not be able to stay in Runzhou for a few years, and the marriage with the Bai family will be forgotten." ”
"My granddaughter is Bai Susu!"
Su Chen looked at him with a proud look on his face, and snorted lightly: "It doesn't matter who your granddaughter is, then you have to be willing to talk about marriage, I don't have this idea now, let's talk about it in a few years!" ”
Old Man Bai glared at him and scolded: "In a few years, Su Su will become an old girl in a few years." ”
