Chapter 124: Do One Thing
"This Wei Youshan was born in a peasant household, his family is poor, but he is talented, he goes to the school to eavesdrop on and learn after working on weekdays, and he was admitted to the Tongsheng at a young age, Wei Youshan wants to study and test Xiucai, and hopes that the clan will sponsor him, but the patriarch of the clan said that he can pay for the exam, but the cost of studying on weekdays is unaffordable."
"Wei Youshan had no money for his weekday study, so he left Weijia Village, and went to Jiangnian County to find a job of copying books, barely making ends meet for his own study, the year before last, Wei Youshan came to Hedong Mansion to participate in the college examination, came to Hedong Mansion half a year in advance, and copied books and sold poems here, while reading, and finally passed the examination to show his talents, and entered the Jiangnian County School to study."
"Because Wei Youshan was admitted to Xiucai, coupled with the young unmarried, many people came to the door to say goodbye, and finally set a marriage with Wei Youshan, it was the daughter of a wealthy businessman surnamed Qiao in Jiangnian County, the two of them were three media and six hired, it was already a ceremony, a few days before the wedding, the Qiao family and Wei Youshan discussed the sedan car on the day of the wedding, such as rewarding money, but found that Wei Youshan was not in the small courtyard that Qiao's family bought for Wei Youshan."
"At first, the Qiao family thought that Wei Youshan had something to go out, but they didn't see him for two days in a row, and when they went to the county school to inquire, none of the master's classmates had ever seen him, only the neighbors said that they heard a quarrel in Wei Youshan's courtyard that morning, and then there was no movement, but they didn't worry about who came and when Wei Youshan went out."
"After the Qiao family heard this, they were afraid that Wei Youshan was killed by gangsters, so they were busy looking everywhere to inquire, but there was no news, so they could only report Wei Youshan's disappearance to the county government, and even posted a reward list at the gate of the county seat, in order to find this Wei Youshan, but after more than a month, Wei Youshan's body was found in a well in Hedong Fucheng."
After listening to Xing'an's explanation, He Yanxiu nodded, "I remember that at that time, I seemed to hear Qu Zhifu say something about clothes or something, but what was abnormal?" ”
He Yanxiu was busy staring at the Mint, and didn't worry about other things, but he just heard a few words by chance, and he didn't pay much attention to it.
Xing'an, as a personal servant, naturally wanted to be He Yanxiu's eyes and ears, so he paid attention to these things and inquired clearly.
"The clothes are ordinary clothes, but the clothes don't seem to fit, and they seem to be a little long." Xing'an said, "But speaking of the clothes, the texture seems to be good, and the workmanship is quite exquisite, this Wei Youshan is poor, and he can wear such good clothes, I don't know if it was the Qiao family's ......."
"I see." He Yanxiu nodded slightly.
Seeing He Yanxiu like this, Xing'an was puzzled by some of the second monks, "What does the second master mean by this?" ”
"Let's do something."
He Yanxiu commanded.

Su Yujin's sour radish and duck soup was quickly served on the table.
Because I suddenly changed my mind during the stewing process, I decided to simply make this sour radish and duck soup into a pot base and eat a vegetable shabu-shabu.
The duck meat is slightly cool, and drinking duck soup in spring can reduce noise and remove fire, plus some vegetables are cooked to eat, the taste is light and the entrance is comfortable.
Su Yujin asked wormwood and green kui to prepare tofu, spring bamboo shoots, spinach, lotus root slices and other vegetables suitable for shabu-shabu eating.
Wormwood hesitated for a moment and opened her mouth, "Girl, when you went to the kitchen just now, the second master came over, and saw that these two clothes were made for him, so he asked Xing'an to take the clothes back first." ”
"Hmm." Su Yujin nodded.
She went to send it again.
"Did the second master say that the clothes don't fit?"
"No ......"
It's just that when I left, my face was not very good-looking.
When Wormwood hesitated to tell Su Yujin about He Yanxiu's solemn expression when he saw the mandarin duck purse, He Yanxiu and Xing'an had already entered the house.
"I made the bottom of the pot with sour radish stewed duck and prepared to eat shabu-shabu, I was thinking about whether the second master would like to eat it, and I was thinking about whether to call the second master to come over for lunch together."
Su Yujin smiled very doggedly.
"That's a coincidence, I'm also thinking about what you're going to do for lunch tonight, thinking about coming and having a bite." He Yanxiu sniffed the aroma coming out of the pot, "It seems to taste good." ”
The sour smell of sour radish and the fragrance of duck linger on the tip of the nose and make people feel appetizing.
He Yanxiu suddenly felt empty in his stomach, and he was looking forward to lunch, so he simply sat down, and before Su Yujin lifted the lid on the casserole, he couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and prepare to feast.
Seeing He Yanxiu with a light smile on his face, his eyes full of the usual gentleness in Su Ri, Wormwood blinked his eyes.
Why didn't you look at the second master at this time like he was half unhappy, but a little ...... Joy?
Could it be that I saw that the second master's face was not good-looking before, but she was purely dazzled?
Wormwood scratched her ears, and then went to prepare bean skin, white mushrooms and other food, and rolled out some noodles by the way.
This kind of shabu-shabu, at the end, boil some noodles, and eat a bowl hot, which is the most comfortable.
April is full of flowers, especially because of a light rain last night, and the ground is full of colorful flower petals.
In May, the weather will start to get hot, and people will change into thinner summer clothes, so many people will order summer clothes at this time, which also makes Linglong Pavilion very busy at this time.
It is necessary to purchase cloth and various silk threads, receive various orders, measure them at home, come back to cut and embroider them, sew them, wash them and iron them, and deliver them to the guests.
And at this time, the busiest are those embroiderers.
Dozens of embroiderers are busy in the embroidery room, with slender and smooth needles in their hands adorned with long silk threads, flying up and down on the flat fabric, and all kinds of patterns are vivid on the embroidered cloth.
Only Fang Niangzi was looking at the outside to see if the petals were falling.
Yun Niangzi on the side patted her, "Why are you still stunned, if you can't finish these tasks, I'm afraid you won't have time to eat dinner." ”
He added, "You always seem to be distracted these days, and you are slow to work, although you can get out of the night by staying up all night, but you are always embroidering against the oil lamp like this, which is the most easy to hurt your eyes, don't make much money, and your eyes will be broken in a few years." ”
If it is boiled, it will be boiled, anyway, she doesn't want to be an embroiderer in the future, and embroider clothes for others.
Seeing that Fang Niangzi was indifferent to her persuasion, Yun Niangzi became more and more worried, "In the past, you were the most diligent, and you refused to even take a tea break halfway, and after you finished your work, you had to take some extra to do, why have you become more and more lazy recently?" ”
"Could it be that this silver is not fragrant enough, and it is no longer able to urge you to make money?" Yun Niangzi simply joked.
Oh, yes.
The silver is really not fragrant enough.
The silver stinks, and even those who touch it become foul.
Fang Niangzi bit her lower lip and bit out a few blood beads.
