Chapter 33: Rumors Spread
Su Chen took the letter and took a general look at the contents of the letter.
It turned out that his cousin Luo Qingyu was going to live in his house for a while.
"Cousin is coming to stay here?"
Su Chen was a little surprised.
Uncle Su nodded and said.
"Your cousin has been doing business outside all the year round, and it is said that he has had bad luck recently, so he wants to come here to learn how to do business."
That's a nice thing to say.
Su Chen understood in his heart, but he didn't pierce it.
"Okay, I know, my cousin will be treated well when he comes."
Uncle Su wanted to speak and stopped, but Su Chen ignored it and left the courtyard directly.
Seeing the back of Su Chen leaving, Uncle Su muttered to himself with a desolate face.
"Chen'er, you still refuse to forgive Daddy!"
Su Chen went to the main hall and didn't see a single zhangqing.
Then I went to the study, but I didn't expect Yizhang Qing to look at the ancient books on the shelves in the study.
Yizhang Qing turned around and saw Su Chen walking in, put down the ancient book in his hand and asked.
"What's the matter?"
Su Chen handed the letter to Yizhangqing.
Yizhang Qing read it and put the letter aside and said.
"I'm afraid your cousin didn't have a good heart when he came this time!"
"Madame, you think the same thing, but it's hard to refuse."
"Who told you to reject him, can he come and come out of it under his nose if he wants to?"
If you come, I won't be afraid of your momentum.
Su Chen likes Yizhang Qing the most, which is both rigid and soft, and looks at her like a god, and the more he looks at it, the more he likes it.
Yizhangqing was stared at a little uncomfortable, and the smile on his face was instantly replaced by a cold eye.
Su Chen felt a chill, shivered, and instantly sobered up.
"Madame, is she hungry? Let's eat first!"
Yizhang Qing ignored Su Chen and stepped out of the study directly.
Su Chen looked at her back and couldn't help but think in his heart.
"Madam, what can you do to make you truly accept as a husband......
This meal is very comfortable, but Su Chen is not, he has been thinking about what this cousin is going to do this time this time?
Meal.
Su Chen called the little third son, explained a few words, and then asked Wen Xiucai to send someone to clean up the side courtyard, and let him live there when his cousin came.
Wen Xiucai arranged for someone to clean up the side courtyard tomorrow morning.
Yizhangqing and Su Chen returned to the bedroom.
Although the two were lying on the same bed, there was still a quilt in between.
Su Chen lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and he couldn't sleep peacefully.
Yizhangqing sat up and said with some annoyance.
"Isn't it just someone? Look at your restless look!"
Su Chen knew that he was in a bad place, and opened his mouth to explain.
"Madame, let me tell you something."
Su Chen opened his mouth to talk about an incident he experienced with his cousin when he was a child.
When the two were six years old, Mr. taught in Su Mansion, just because Mr. beat Luo Qingyu's hand. Later, while others were unprepared, Luo Qingyu actually put laxatives in Mr.'s teacup.
Yizhang Qing spoke after hearing this.
"This Luo Qingyu has been a sinister villain since he was a child."
As soon as Zhang Qing looked at Su Chen's expression, he knew that when he was a child, Luo Qingyu had caused some shadows on his psychology.
"Don't worry, husband. If he dares to make trouble in Su Mansion, the old lady will definitely chop him. ”
Su Chen saw Yizhangqing's expression, and his heart was warm.
It seems like no one has cared so much about him for a long time.
The morning of the second day.
Su Chen was looking through the accounts left by Wen Xiucai.
The little third son ran in.
"Young master, you are really a god, sure enough, there are some people on the street outside who say that our Su Mansion is not authentic, the price of the food in the restaurant is too high, and the wine is mixed with water, and the dim sum sold in the dim sum shop is either long hair or has insects and so on."
When Su Chen heard the little third son say this, he didn't raise his head but nodded.
"Young Master, don't you want to think of a way? If this continues, our shop business in Sufu will not be easy to do. ”
"It's okay, let them pass it on for a few more days!"
"Huh?"
The third son didn't understand why the eldest young master didn't hurry up to stop it, it had too much impact on the business.
"Send a few people to follow the rumors that spread the most, and then find out where the rumors came out in the end, and don't do anything else."
Su Chen closed the ledger.
Looking at the little maids and maids walking around the door, today they are always walking towards the hall intentionally or unintentionally.
It seems that the rumors outside also have a certain impact on them.
Su Chen got up and walked out of the hall in the direction of the back kitchen.
At the corner of the back kitchen, Su Chen saw Sister-in-law Zhang, who was in charge of the back kitchen, carrying a basket and a few silly little girls, and didn't know what she was talking about.
Look at that expression, his eyebrows flutter.
"Did you hear that? People outside are spreading the word about our Su Mansion. ”
"Naturally, I heard about it, but the eldest young master is very good to us, much better than the second master."
"The eldest young master has just taken charge of the family, and he has seen the hearts of the people for a long time."
"Sister-in-law Zhang, you have always been in the mansion, you are a veteran, I don't know if such a big Su family also has some unknown secrets."
It was Xiaohong, who had just arrived in Su Mansion, who asked this.
"Let me tell you, the eldest young master is not fully in charge of the Su family now, in fact, the Su family still has a side power."
Su Chen heard their conversation.
"Sister-in-law Zhang!"
Su Chen suddenly spoke.
Sister-in-law Zhang's body stiffened suddenly, and she could hear that it was Su Chen's voice, and she turned around and shouted respectfully.
"Young Master, why did you come to the back kitchen? Just ask me what you want to eat. ”
"It's empty today, so come and have a look."
Su Chen hooked the corners of his mouth, and kept staring at Sister-in-law Zhang when he said this.
Sister-in-law Zhang was a little weak by Su Chen's eyes.
"Young master, don't listen to the old slave's nonsense, I just heard it."
"Oh, is it? Where did you hear that? I haven't heard of it in all the years I've lived in Sufu, so why don't you tell me about it?"
At this time, Sister-in-law Zhang really wanted to slap her two mouths, why did she talk so much about it.
Su Chen sat down on the stone bench next to him, and Sister-in-law Zhang stood on the side with her back bent, her hands holding the corners of her clothes tightly.
"Sister-in-law Zhang doesn't have to be so nervous, you just have to say it clearly."
"Young Master, this is when I passed by the second master's courtyard a few years ago, I overheard him and the second lady talking about this matter, I really don't know the specific situation."
Su Chen looked at Sister-in-law Zhang's expression and knew that she was not lying.
"Okay, let's not take this matter as an example, don't talk nonsense in the future."
"Hey, okay, young master."
After Sister-in-law Zhang finished speaking, she ran back to the kitchen with a cigarette.
I don't know if the old man knows about this matter.
Su Chen calculated in his heart, and he would ask the old man later.
