Su Qingluan picked up the tea bowl, this time he blew it carefully, and only after making sure that it was no longer hot did he take a sip carefully: "There is nothing else I ask for, as long as our family can live a stable and peaceful life." ”

"I thought you would say that you would ask for some kind of reward for a big house or ten thousand taels of gold." Mu Xingzhi looked at Su Qingluan with interest—after all, the woman opposite didn't look like a high-minded character who "treats money like dung".

It's better to say that she even got into the eyes of money sometimes-even Su Qingluan herself was very generous to admit this more than once in front of Mu Xingzhi, and she didn't care about it, she was quite proud!

Su Qingluan asked rhetorically, "You should know about Hongfu Building, right?" Then he didn't wait for the man on the other side to answer, and said, "Of course I know, after all, the first time I heard about you was when I heard about the competition between you and Master Zhou in Hongfu Building." ”

Thinking of the anecdotes of the old days with his friends, Mu Xingzhi smiled slightly.

Su Qingluan said: "Even if I don't have any input, I just rely on the share of the menu provided to Hongfu Building, at least thirty or fifty taels of silver per month." ”

This number is almost equivalent to the chewing of the whole family in ten or even fifteen years by an ordinary family.

Speaking of food, Su Qingluan's eyes flashed with a confident light that was different from any time: "As the saying goes, 'people take food as the sky', whether it is a wealthy family or an ordinary person, they can't do without two meals and three meals a day." As you can see, whether it's those exquisite delicacies or the local snacks of the lower riba people, I can easily find them. ”

Mu Xingzhi didn't have the slightest suspicion. Whether it is the soup that only ordinary people can look at, or the jam that can be sold for ten taels of gold for rich and noble families, Su Qingluan's hands seem to have been cast by the Bodhisattva, as if they can turn any ingredient into magic.

So, the man immediately understood what Su Qingluan meant - even if she didn't ask for any mansion money, she would be able to earn back these things with her own skills one day.

"Compared with the small favors that can be seen with the naked eye, the promise of a person like you is more precious in itself."

Mu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows: "Are you flattering?" ”

Su Qingluan shook his head: "If you can only make a fool of yourself at this juncture, it's too cost-effective-don't you know, as the saying goes, the world is big, and the debt of human affection is the greatest?" ”

"There's such a saying?" Mu Xingyi was really stunned for a moment - although he had extensive knowledge of these market slang, he was not very proficient in it.

Su Qingluan was amused by the other party's rare confusion and hesitation: "Yes, I created it just now!" ”

Looking at the other party's stunned expression, Su Qingluan laughed so much that he shrank back on the chair behind him. This stool is the kind of very wide circle chair, Su Qingluan is thin, even if he is curled up on it, it is not particularly cramped, this time he leaned forward and closed, and almost fell down.

Mu Xingzhi was convinced that Su Qingluan really didn't have the slightest idea of sycophants - it was better to say that he had noticed from the beginning that although the girl in front of him was not a rude person, if she hadn't specifically mentioned it, she wouldn't have deliberately taken things like "status" to heart.

For example, now, even if she knows that she may have an extraordinary background, and even win the world in the future, she doesn't seem to take it very seriously.

Mu Xingzhi is not the kind of person who has to be respectful to the people around him, but Su Qingluan, a person who doesn't take "status" to heart at all, but is bent on getting into the eyes of money, is the only one he has seen in his life.

"Even if wealth and glory can be earned by yourself, wouldn't it be better to get more for nothing? What's more," Mu Xingzhi's finger tapped lightly on the armrest next to the wheelchair, "As far as I know, you have a younger brother and a younger sister at home, and you don't even help them find a future?" ”

Su Qingluan shrugged: "Maybe I'm thinking about it closer to the present, for me, what is rich and glorious, a splendid future and the like, it's too far away." Who can say for sure what is too far away in the future? ”

It's like in her previous life, she was originally full of ambition to become a celebrity chef, but the reality gave her a big fight, not to mention what kind of celebrity chef she was, and even her qualifications to be a person were forcibly deprived in advance.

"Whether it's my sister's marriage or my brother's future, it will be more than ten years later, who can say for sure what the situation will be at that time?" Su Qingluan sighed.

Mu Xingzhi looked at her obviously looking young, and her eyes were very desolate and distant, so he felt that he wanted to tease, so he knew that Su Qingluan didn't mean that, but he deliberately said: "You don't believe that I can achieve great things?" ”

Sure enough, Su Qingluan didn't show any trepidation: "It doesn't matter if you can achieve great things—it's just that children are one when they are old, and they may be different when they grow up." I'm just their sister, and I'm not qualified to choose the future for them, so I can only promise to make more money so that they won't suffer. ”

"But the eldest sister is like a mother."

"Don't say it's 'like a mother', even if it's a mother herself, she can't have the ability to dominate everything for her children, right? It's not a marionette Gu, and if you can move your fingers, your children will obey orders. ”

Amused by Su Qingluan's novel metaphors and sayings, Mu Xingzhi said: "Qingluan can always say refreshing opinions. ”

"It's a jaw-dropping opinion, isn't it?" Su Qingluan pursed his lips, "Elegant people are polite when they speak. ”

With a smile, Su Qingluan restrained the meaning of the joke, and said: "Actually, whether it is a younger brother or a younger sister, I don't know what life they want to live in the future, so I definitely can't arbitrarily set their future lives with their own preferences and judgments." What they really want is to fight for it on their own. ”

"Seeing that you were so tight that day, I thought you would take it all in." Mu Xingzhi sighed.

Su Qingluan asked a question that seemed to be impossible to beat: "Do you know how to break the cocoon into a butterfly?" Have you ever tried what happens if you help a butterfly when it breaks its cocoon? ”

Although Mu Xingzhi had not done this experiment, he was a smart person, and he immediately understood what Su Qingluan said: "You mean, the seedlings are promoted?" ”

"That's it," Su Qingluan looked at the person opposite and smiled, "The butterfly that was helped to break the cocoon will never be able to fly again in this life, and can only freeze and starve to death in the soil." ”

"My brother wants a great future, or my sister wants a happy marriage, and I can't just pave the way for them. Whether it's success or happiness, everyone's standards are different, so what qualifications can I define for them? ”

"So you're asking nothing for me?" Mu Xingzhi said with a smile.

"How can there be nothing!" Su Qingluan sighed, "What I ask for, ordinary people can't easily accept it!" ”
