Chapter 24: The First Business
"Cousin, she's gone."
"What do you say? Say it again! The woman came up to the speaker, to tell her not to deceive her.
"She was chased and killed five years ago, fled in a carriage and fell off a cliff."
At first, Su Yanshang wanted to hide it, but she felt that it was meaningless, after all, she had to know, what was the use of having a false hope? Besides, she couldn't see Feng Changning in the position where Feng Changning should be staying, how could she explain?
The woman staggered up to Su Yansheng and clasped her arms with both hands, "Tell the old woman, what you said is not true!" ”
Su Yanshang was silent for a moment and said, "So you can come with me to snatch back those things that belong to her?" So as to comfort her in the spirit of heaven. ”
The woman closed her eyes and did not want to remember, "But she may not want us to rob it!" ”
That's what she's willing to give.
"But she regrets it now, now, others have taken her place and enjoy everything she deserves, I can't stand it, she won't like her place to be occupied by others." There was a hint of firmness in Su Yansheng's tone.
"But what can I do? I'm just a wreck. ”
"Aunt Guo doesn't have to do anything now, just go back with me. This is your grandson, at least I can keep you fed and clothed so that you don't have to deal with unscrupulous businessmen. When I'm ready, I'm going to ask Aunt Guo for help. ”
The little boy hid behind his grandmother in fear.
She guessed something, and couldn't help but ask.
"His father and mother went out to do business two years ago, and the road was met with rocks and fell down, and they encountered misfortune."
The woman took her grandson and Su Yanshang to the capital, and Su Yanshang took the two to a hostel.
"I've already bought a shop, and in a few days the people in it will move out, and we can go and live there."
Lou Kee's storefront is the layout of the front shop and the back yard, and the area is not small, so it is not a problem for a few people to put a larger loom on it.
"Are you really Sister Ning's cousin?"
The woman was still a little incredulous, and she didn't want to believe that her little master was gone.
Su Yanshang really wanted to tell her that she was Feng Changning and asked her not to be so sad. But how can this be explained? Who would believe the unbelievable thing? I'm afraid that Aunt Guo will be scared and run away with the child, where will she find it.
"I was her cousin, and my mother was her mother's own sister. We also have an aunt who is now the wife of the Marquis of Dingning. ”
They are three sisters, and after they got married, two were in the capital and one was in the south of the Yangtze River. When Feng Changning's mother was in the capital, she went to the Dingning Marquis Mansion to visit her sister, but it was very rare.
"In a blink of an eye, the master, the lady and the young lady are all gone, it's really unpredictable!" Guo Niangzi wiped her tears as she spoke.
The only person in the world who can be sad for them is Aunt Guo. Mrs. Dingninghou should also be one of them, she is a good aunt.
"Aunt Guo, stay here, I still have some things to do."
Su Yanshang explained that she was going to open a tailor shop, and then roughly explained the plan for the collapse of Yunxiang Pavilion.
"Next ......"
Guo Niangzi nodded when she heard this, and there were ripples in her chest that had been cold for a long time.
"You're so much more daring than your cousin!"
There are many resolute people in this world, but they have been pushed to the extreme.
When Su Yanshang returned to the Dingning Marquis Mansion, she received a letter of worship from Xie Xinyuan.
On the second day, Xie Xinyuan came to the door, and the county lord of Poyang appeared at the same time.
The county lord of Poyang is the daughter of King Lu, and he also went to the flower banquet of the Guogong Mansion that day, he is fourteen years old this year, and his body is very thin, and he can't even hold up his clothes.
"Since you are Ayuan's sister, I'm not welcome, I saw your craftsmanship that day, I like it very much, it's almost the emperor's grandmother's birthday, and the families of officials above the fourth grade in the capital will go to the birthday banquet, and there will be envoys from neighboring countries to be present, I want you to make me a dress, I can be the kind of beauty that day."
On that day, at the flower viewing banquet of the Shinkoku Mansion, he showed his talent in dressmaking, which was to prepare for the opening of a ready-to-wear shop. It's just that I didn't expect that so soon, there would be business coming to the door, and there would be such a good opportunity as the Queen Mother's birthday.
She was very skeptical that her mother had said that women could not do business in her previous life if it was false, and she wanted to prove that it was false.
"Okay, what's your favorite color?"
"Ayuan said that you are very good at choosing colors."
"Well, Ayuan told the truth." She glanced at Xie Xinyuan, her face was slightly baby fat, and her body was already thinner than the original under the conditioning of the prescription she prescribed, which was really cute and good-looking.
Is it so immodest?
Advertise yourself, be humble and you're done!
"I'll give you a tailor first, do you have any requirements for the style?"
"It must be grand, beautiful, and stunning." Her father's fief was in the land of the Southern Barbarians, where she was the lord of the county and was respected.
But when she arrived in the capital, she was the object of ridicule, not only the royal princess and the county lord made fun of her, but even the little ladies of the official families who couldn't get on the stage didn't know how to look down on her, just because she was dark-skinned and thin.
She couldn't swallow it!
"Princess Lu has prepared clothes for you to attend the birthday banquet, can you bring them over for me to see?"
The county lord of Poyang was stunned.
Although Su Yanshang's craftsmanship that day was very amazing, what she was going to participate in was a state banquet, if she didn't stand at a certain height and have a broad vision, she probably wouldn't even be able to make a set of clothes that fit the shape.
Miss Su had never seen such a scene.
The county lord of Poyang was a little disappointed in his heart, the clothes made by her mother were those clothes that made her thinner and darker, and she didn't know how beautiful she could make.
Forget it, even if it is made, the mother concubine may not be allowed to wear it, but since she came to ask for someone, she will send it another day.
Su Yanshang happily and a little nervously took over her first business, she thought about it, and decided to make one more glamorous dress and send it to the Duchess of Xinguo.
Little sister Xie Xinyuan naturally has it.
The shopkeeper of Lou Ji was depressed because he couldn't find the owner of the shop.
"No matter, if it doesn't show up, then it's best, this shop is mine." The shopkeeper secretly expected that the owner of this shop would have been buried in the fire and fell off the cliff, and his bones were gone.
At this time, middle-aged people in their thirties and middle-aged people who were indistinguishable from male and female walked into the store and explained their intentions.
The shopkeeper invited the two to a cubicle and ordered someone to serve tea.
"Shopkeeper, this is the landlord of the shop, the lease of this shop has expired, please move out of the shop in these two days." Humane.
This landlord is the masked man who has taken off his mask and disguised himself as a middle-aged man.
The masked man was very depressed, according to him, Lou Ji's lease expired, and people would naturally move out, but Boss Su said no, he must let him pretend to be the owner, this time he had to get the two thousand taels of silver.
The lease is indeed the day after tomorrow: "I thought the landlord was not coming, what, I have been looking for the owner to renew the contract but I can't find it, and now tell me to let me move out, is it too much?" Why don't you let me know a month in advance, so that I can find a new shop in advance? ”
"I'm sorry, shopkeeper, I will give you five days at most." According to the situation that can be thought of before, it is humane.
"Five days can't work, we can't pack up our things so fast, and we have to find a new shop, if we leave, and there is no new shop, who will pay for the loss during this period?"
Zhongren: "This contract does not say that after the end of the lease period, the resumption of the shop should be informed in advance, and the lease period will be moved out, which is a matter of course, so the landlord has not breached the contract, and the landlord does not need to pay for the loss of the new shop." ”
The shopkeeper squinted: "Is there a title deed?" ”
The middle-aged man took out a title deed from his arms, and the shopkeeper believed in his identity.
The shopkeeper curled the corners of his lips, took out a contract that had been prepared a long time ago: "You can sign it." ”
The two of them looked at the contract, good guy, this is not a renewal contract, but a transfer contract, the contract says that this shop will be transferred to someone in the building at a price of five hundred taels, just need to sign, and it has been stamped with the seal of Jingzhao Mansion.
"This is what Lord Jing Zhaoyin meant, you have to think about it." The shopkeeper of the building gave a look, and the door of the store was closed tightly by the guy.
The masked man's eyelids jumped: No, it's all expected by Boss Su? Before this, she shouldn't have dealt with the shopkeeper before!
Zhongdao: "The shopkeeper only gives a transfer fee of five hundred taels? ”
"Five hundred taels is a lot."
"Hahaha, the shopkeeper is joking! The smallest shop on this street is rented for more than 500 taels alone. ”
"I said five hundred taels is five hundred taels, no matter how much it is, you don't want to walk out of this store today."
Several tall and strong men stood by the closed door.
"Boy, when I ran the rivers and lakes, you didn't have teeth yet, and if you want to fight with me, believe it or not, I won't give you five hundred taels." Looking at this middle-aged landlord, he is not a confident person, there must be no big backer behind him, and his aunt is the old lady of Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
The shopkeeper looked at him again, and two strong men stepped forward, holding the hands of the middle-aged man to cover the handprints, and at this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Open the door, open the door! The government investigates the case! ”
Hearing that it was the government handling the case, the shopkeeper who mentioned his heart put his heart at ease: the government is his family.
He commanded the strong man to open the door.
"Yo, what kind of wind blew the officials and old men here?" The shopkeeper took a look at it and saw a familiar official.
"The shopkeeper doesn't open the door to do business today?" The official asked.
"There are some things to go back to do at home today, so I closed the door in advance, why did the official master come here?"
"Someone reported to the official, saying that someone in Lou Ji passively lynched. Shopkeeper, come with us! "Just now, the person who reported to the official said that he closed the door during the day when he heard Lou Ji, and then he heard someone inside being beaten and someone calling for help.
"How is it possible, who reported this, this is a false accusation, my lord, you must be aware of it!"
