Chapter 31 The Liu family repays the favor

Cheng Xiujie did not approach, but stopped by the bamboo gate, and said in a slightly deep tone: "Since it is a guest, you should be invited home, Ran'er!" ”

Cheng Aoran's hand hanging down at his side shook slightly, and a trace of tangle flashed in his eyes, but he still turned around, bowed to Cheng Xiujie, and said: "Dad, this, this girl is her son's friend, she is from Huang'an Village under the mountain, let's say a few words, she, she will leave immediately." ”

Before the words fell, he turned to Su Mulian and said, "Don't worry about that, you ...... You go first, turn back, turn back and I'll look for you. ”

Su Mulian frowned slightly, but thinking of what Cheng Aoran had just said, she also knew that she had embarrassed Cheng Aoran, so she didn't say anything more.

She nodded to the dignified old man at the door as a sign of respect, then turned and left.

Cheng Aoran watched Su Mulian enter the forest, and then turned to look at his father, "Dad, I ......"

"The next time a friend comes over, please come to the house and sit down, I will teach you hospitality, not for you to tell a story." Cheng Xiu looked into the distance, and looked at the woman who was walking away in the forest again.

This figure is almost ......

After evaluating Su Mulian's figure, Cheng Xiujie looked at his son again, "Next time in front of outsiders, just talk, don't stutter hard, you don't eat people." ”

Cheng Ran hung his head proudly, not daring to say a word.

Cheng Xiujie was used to his son like this, he frowned slightly, and turned around and walked towards the courtyard, but what he had to say was still passed on, "Next time that girl comes over, please come into the house and sit down." ”

"My son got it." Cheng Ran hung his head proudly, and a trace of pain flashed in his dark eyes.

When Su Mulian went down the mountain, she almost collided with the sons of the Su family, but fortunately, she was clever, and with a flash of her body, she hid in the grass behind the tree, and when the sons of the Su family left, she went down the mountain and went home.

The Sun family had already taken Su Mutian and Su Muze to the town, and Su Mulian saw that there was only the Qin family who was feeding the chickens in the yard, so she didn't bother to go in again, and turned around and went to the town.

Sister Lian'er's dim sum shop has already opened, and there are many customers lining up in the store, Su Mulian saw that the Sun family seemed to be too busy, and shouted "Mother", so she immediately stepped forward to help.

This busy has been busy until the afternoon, lunch is Sun's own sorghum rice in the dim sum shop, Su Mulian ate half a bowl, then pushed the rice bowl, and said to Sun: "Mother, I want to go to Master Liu's house, do you watch the shop yourself?" ”

"Old Man Liu's house? What are you doing at Mr. Liu's house? Sun asked, his eyes full of worry.

"I sent some herbs to the Liu family before, it's been a few days, I want to go over and take a look, then the Liu family's illness is cured." Su Mulian got up and took off her apron, seeing that Sun was still worried, she didn't want to explain anymore.

Her mother is good at everything, but she is too timid.

Directly from the nod shop, Su Mulian walked along the East Street to the West Street entrance, and this was to Master Liu's house.

"Steward Liu, I'm here to thank you." Su Mulian handed over the pastry in her hand, "If it wasn't for your help last time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known that my aunt would be like that." ”

The Liu family is a big family in Qingyuan Town, if it weren't for Steward Liu's good heart, seeing Su Mulian come to inquire about infectious diseases, he asked a few more words for a while, and later helped analyze and arrest people, Su Mulian's ability to be a poor girl in the countryside would not be able to catch Quanfu's little guy at all.

Steward Liu was already old, and his gray beard and hair made the old man look easy-going.

He waved his hand to push the pastry away, and said kindly: "I can't accept your pastry, but girl, I'm afraid you have to accept this gift from our master." ”

As he spoke, Steward Liu invited Su Mulian into the front hall.

"The herbs you sent last time are very useful to my son-in-law, my lord said, the son has been good in the past two days, and he will come to the door to thank you, since you came here today, then wait here, I went to invite my lord to come over." Steward Liu told the inside story, and then left the front hall and went to the backyard.

Su Mulian looked at the front hall, and it didn't take long to see Steward Liu leading a half-aged man in.

This person is Liu Xuan, the lord of the Liu Mansion, who is the only businessman who is called a great benevolent man by the townspeople of Qingyuan Town among the few wealthy businessmen in Qingyuan Town.

"Master, this is Miss Su Mulian Su." Steward Liu introduced Su Mulian Dao.

"I've seen Master Liu." Su Mulian's status is too low now, and she wants to salute when she sees Master Liu.

"She's a smart girl." Liu Xuan looked at Su Mulian and asked Steward Liu to bring over the prepared things.

It was ten ingots of silver, twenty taels each, a total of two hundred taels, which is equivalent to forty thousand pieces in modern times.

"My Liu family only has one child, Xinghe, and you saved the only son of my Liu family, these should be regarded as thank you." Liu Xuan had already heard Steward Liu talk about the Su family, knew what people needed, and repaid the favor, so he sent what Su Mulian lacked the most now.

Although Su Mulian is a poor person now, she also knows that the money can't be taken casually, so she immediately bent over and refused: "Master Liu, I can't take this money." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to excuse yourself, these silver taels are not just thank-you gifts." Liu Xuan showed his approval of the girl in front of him, and just now he heard Steward Liu say that although the girl of the Su family is poor, her character is excellent.

Two hundred taels can be regarded as verifying Steward Liu's praise.

Su Mulian's eyes were suspicious.

Master Liu invited Su Mulian to sit down, and then said: "Little Lao'er will turn sixty in June this year, I heard that the pastries made by the girl are good, I wonder if the girl can make longevity peaches and longevity bags?" ”

Shou Tao and Shou Bao are things that will inevitably be on the table when ancient people do big birthdays, these things Su Mulian has never done, but thinking that with Sun's guidance, it will not be too difficult, so she nodded and said: "I will do it, do you want to leave these to me to do?" ”

Master Liu smiled and nodded, "The girl is smart, these two hundred taels should be used as a deposit, and after the big birthday, Xiao Lao'er will give the rest of the silver taels." ”

Su Mulian didn't know the price of Shou Tao and Shou Bao, so she didn't shirk anymore, she asked about the number of Shou Tao and Shou Bao, and asked the time of Da Shou, and then she took the silver tael.

Then he asked about the situation of Liu Xinghe, the son of the Liu family.

"This child has been sick for a long time, and even if he is cured now, it will be difficult to get off the ground for a while." When Master Liu mentioned his son, he felt distressed.

Su Mulian nodded slightly, didn't ask any more, and then got up to say goodbye.

Master Liu asked Steward Liu to personally send Su Mulian back to the nod shop, and when Steward Liu left, Su Mulian told Sun about the custom-made shou bao and shou peach.
