Chapter 34: Uncle Su's Confession.
An hour later, Su Chen walked to the small courtyard where the old man lived, and when he was about to arrive at the small courtyard, Su Chen saw Xiaohong, who had just inquired about things in the back kitchen, and walked in with a food box.
This is not the time to eat, and the old man is not in the habit of eating snacks, so it is a little strange for Xiaohong to go in with a food box.
Su Chen walked lightly into the small courtyard, and when he arrived at the door of the old man's room, he stopped and listened.
"Sir, this is a new little pastry made in the kitchen, you can taste it and still be appetizing."
"You girl looks at the eyes, is she new?"
"Yes, sir, the slave came to the house a few days ago, called Xiaohong."
"People don't like this sweet when they're old, you better take it back, take this newly made pastry to Chen'er, try it and maybe he likes it."
Su Chen stood outside the door and listened, but he didn't expect that his father would still think about himself for such a trivial matter.
I can't help but feel a warmth in my heart, and the feeling of being born before has disappeared a little.
If it is changed to another girl, she will immediately put away the snacks and send them to the eldest young master.
But this Xiaohong is different, but she opens her mouth to persuade.
"Master, you are so concerned about the eldest young master, but the eldest young master is not like this to you."
As soon as Xiaohong's words came out, Su Chen knew that this person couldn't stay in the mansion.
"How do I treat my son, how can you be a subordinate who can judge, get out of here!"
Uncle Su was a little angry, and opened his mouth to scold Xiaohong.
But instead of being afraid, she laughed.
"Hehe, you really think that you are still the same Uncle Su who can call the wind and rain!"
"You, you ...... Ahem......"
Uncle Su was coughed by Xiao Hongqi.
"Uncle Su, don't think that my words are ugly, in fact, your son's IQ is only like this, the Su family will lose in his hands sooner or later, wouldn't it be better to let Young Master Biao take over!"
Xiaohong looked at Uncle Su with a smug face, and then took out a piece of paper in her arms.
"Uncle Su, as long as you press your handprint on this piece of paper, you can continue to live here from now on, and provide you with delicious food and drink, and how about serving you for a hundred years?"
"You, you ......"
Uncle Su was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Bang!
The wooden door was kicked open.
After Xiaohong turned her head and saw Su Chen, her face changed instantly.
"Great, big young master!"
"Who the hell are you?"
"Big young master, the slave maid is the new girl Xiaohong, since the young master is here, the slave and maid will retreat first."
Xiaohong bowed her head and was about to leave.
Su Chen took two steps forward and grabbed Xiaohong's wrist, and the strength of his hand increased slightly, and he opened his mouth to question.
"I'll give you one last chance."
"Young Master, you hurt me, what are you going to do!"
The corners of Xiaohong's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Su Chen pitifully.
If he had changed to Su Chen before, he might not have the courage to rush out and question the little girl in front of him.
But now it's different, Su Chen has changed drastically, and he will never allow anyone to bully him and the people around him.
"Chen'er, this girl can't stay!"
Uncle Su had already gasped for breath and spoke.
"Dad, you can rest, I will deal with this girl!"
After Su Chen finished speaking, he pulled Xiaohong out of the door, and called two little servants to temporarily lock Xiaohong in the firewood room.
Su Chen was about to ask Wen Xiucai about the origin of this little red, and as soon as he walked to the door of the study, he saw Wen Xiucai walking towards him.
"Big young master!"
"You're just in time, I have something to ask you."
"Young Master, what's the matter?"
"The new Xiaohong in our house, do you know the details?"
Wen Xiucai heard Su Chen mention Xiaohong, so he thought about it in his mind.
"Oh, that Xiaohong seems to have been introduced by Sister-in-law Zhang."
Su Chen was a little puzzled, this sister-in-law Zhang has been working in the mansion for so many years, how could she suddenly introduce such a girl to the mansion, there must be a reason for it.
"Wen Xiucai, you will personally go and bring Sister-in-law Zhang to the hall!"
Su Chen went to the hall, and after sitting down, Wen Xiucai brought Sister-in-law Zhang over.
Sister-in-law Zhang had already heard that Xiaohong was locked up by Su Chen, and she couldn't help but be a little flustered.
"The eldest young master is well!"
Sister-in-law Zhang bowed down to greet Su Chen and carefully looked at his face.
"Sister-in-law Zhang doesn't have to be so polite, you have been in the mansion for many years and can be said to have watched Young Master Ben grow up, so Young Master Ben has always thought of you in his heart."
When Sister-in-law Zhang heard Su Chen say this, the expression on her face changed slightly.
"Now I'll give you a chance, let's talk about what is the origin of this little red!"
Poof!
Sister-in-law Zhang suddenly knelt down.
"Young Master, in fact, this Xiaohong is not a poor girl from an ordinary family, but a little maid who came to live in our house with Young Master Cousin many years ago."
After hearing this, Su Chen suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing.
That was three years ago, and when it was close to Chinese New Year's Eve, my cousin did take a little maid to Su Mansion to live for a few days, and now in retrospect, it seems that it was really this girl named Xiaohong.
"Then what is the purpose of her coming to the house? Sister-in-law Zhang, do you know!"
Sister-in-law Zhang shook her head.
"Young Master, the old slave really doesn't know about this, but I vaguely heard Xiaohong say that he came here to help the young master get back what belonged to him."
Su Chen kept thinking, what exactly is the Su family that belongs to his cousin?
Seeing that Su Chen was silent, Sister-in-law Zhang spoke cautiously in a panic.
"The eldest young master has been serving in the mansion for so many years, can you spare this time if you haven't made a mistake."
Originally, Su Chen didn't plan to drive Sister-in-law Zhang away.
Sister-in-law Zhang is in Su Mansion and takes good care of herself, but she just wants to beat her with this matter.
"If Sister-in-law Zhang has a next time, you should know what will happen!"
Sister-in-law Zhang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and thanked Su Chen again and again before leaving.
In the past, Su Chen did not have the right to speak in the mansion, so naturally he rarely cared about the big and small matters in the mansion.
He didn't remember that there was anything in this Su Mansion that belonged to his cousin, so it was better to ask the old man, maybe he could know some clues.
After Su Chen made up his mind, he went to the old man's courtyard.
As soon as I walked outside the door, I saw two little guys walking out with the old man in their arms.
"Dad, where are you going?"
When Su Chen saw it, he was shocked and hurriedly ran forward.
"Chen'er, Dad wants to go to you, and I want to talk to you about something."
Su Chen looked at his father in front of him with a face full of remorse and knew that there were too many things in this Su Mansion that he didn't know.
"Let's go back to the house and say, if there is something to do, just send someone to inform you in the future, you don't have to come in person."
For the old man, Su Chen still can't hate it, after all, he gave life to his predecessor, otherwise there would be no current Su Chen.
After returning to the house, Uncle Su leaned on the side of the bed and panted.
"Chen'er, in the past, my father listened to your second uncle's slander and felt that you were not the best person to be in charge of the Su family, so he didn't care enough about you, don't blame your father."
Su Chen's heart did not fluctuate when he heard this.
"This is your cousin's letter from earlier, take a look."
Su Chen took it and carefully read the contents of the letter, and after reading it, he snorted coldly.
"Well, this cousin is quite interesting, what he said can be described as high-sounding, and he directly said that he wanted the Su family to get it."
"This can't be blamed on him for being so ambitious, who told your second uncle to sign an agreement at that time. What do you say that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, although it is your cousin, he will not stand idly by if there is something in the Su family. ”
"Now in addition to those shops in the town, in fact, there are many industries in the Su family that are taken care of by your cousin, and it may not be easy to take them back now."
Su Chen looked at Uncle Su's expression, firstly, he regretted that he was ignorant and listened to others, and secondly, he hated his own brother for calculating him with outsiders.
