Chapter 005 Thank You Second Lord
The large characters floating in the wind are eye-catching - Su Ji, and they seem to be selling wontons and noodles.
It is an ordinary place to eat, but since people come and go, the taste here is extraordinary.
Xing'an took two quick steps, but stopped again.
Because I saw clearly the face of the young girl greeting the guests.
Wormwood?
Taking a closer look, I saw the man making wontons sitting in the stall...
Miss Su?
Xing'an rubbed his eyes.
Yes, Mother Liu is here too.
But why?
Before the second master left, he personally handed over the five hundred taels of silver to Miss Su...
After hesitating for a moment, Xing'an found a person on the roadside, handed him some money, and asked him to help him buy a bowl of wontons.
When Xing'an brought the hot wontons to the carriage, He Yanxiu picked up the spoon and asked, "Why did it take so long?"
“There are many people in front of the wonton stall, and we queued for a long time.”
Come to think of it, these wontons taste good?
He Yanxiu paused for a moment while scooping up wontons. After swallowing one, he nodded slightly and said, "It's okay."
"Second Master, actually these wontons..."
"What's wrong?"
Xing'an's voice was as thin as a mosquito's, "It was done by Miss Su."
Miss Su?
He seemed to know only one Miss Su, and there was only one in Qinghe.
Magistrate Cui of Yong'an Prefecture paid tribute to Su Yujin, who was good at singing and dancing.
He Yanxiu raised his eyes.
Only then did Xing'an dare to continue, "Originally, I was just watching the bustle of the wonton stall. I thought it tasted good, so I thought about buying a bowl for the second master to try. But when I got closer, I saw that it was Miss Su, mugwort.
I opened it with Mama Liu and the three of them. The younger one didn't dare to show up, so he asked someone to buy a bowl. He also told the second master about it. Look at the second master..."
How to decide.
He Yanxiu thought for a while, then lowered his head and continued eating wontons.
After finishing the bowl of wontons, he said, "Go to Shuanggui Lane."
Rather than making random guesses, it's better to ask for yourself.
"Yes." Xing'an agreed.
---
Su Yujin and three other people closed the stall at the end of noon.
"Business is good today, and the stalls are closed earlier than usual."
On the way back, Ai Cao was in great spirits, but when he saw a rather large carriage parked in the originally narrow alley, and it was parked just in front of the house, so that it was difficult to take the board in his hand, he suddenly raised eyebrows.
Upright.
"This carriage is parked very well. It is specially chosen to block people's doors."
Ai Cao's words fell to the ground, and a low and cold voice rang out, "Hurry the carriage to the street and wait for me."
The carriage moved in response, and after leaving completely, Ai Cao saw clearly the two people watching from one side of the carriage.
Among them, the one with tall stature, handsome face and extraordinary temperament is He Yanxiu.
The wooden board in his hand almost fell to the ground, his legs were a little weak, and Ai Cao's voice was trembling, "Second...Second Master?"
"Second Master is here?" Mother Liu poked her head and saw that it was He Yanxiu and her boy Xing'an. She hurriedly reached out to pull Su Yujin, "Girl, girl, Second Master is here, Second Master is here."
Is He Yanxiu here?
Even if he was looking forward to it on weekdays, this moment came a bit suddenly. Su Yujin was caught off guard. He couldn't remember how Su Yujin greeted He Yanxiu in a delicate and charming manner in the past. He could only step forward hurriedly and straighten up.
Zhengdi Blessed Yifu, "Second Master."
"Go in and talk."
"Yes, Second Master."
Su Yujin hurriedly opened the door.
He Yanxiu walked into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, there is a lot of greenery.
Loofah vines are climbing all over the wall, the pale yellow flowers of the cucumber are already withered, the slender cucumber strips have taken shape, and the tomatoes are forming clusters of small green balls...
He Yanxiu, who serves in the Ministry of Household Affairs, naturally knows these common vegetables and knows that they are commonly grown in ordinary people's courtyards and are not considered unusual.
However, as an outer room, instead of planting some pleasing flowers and plants, this courtyard is planted with these?
He Yanxiu turned sideways slightly and glanced at Su Yujin who was diagonally behind him.
Seeing this, Su Yujin hurriedly took a step forward, "There were originally some flowers and plants in the courtyard, but my maid thought they were a bit useless, so she asked Mugwort and Mother Liu to plant some seasonal vegetables, which are convenient for eating on weekdays."
She is a concubine, not even a serious concubine, so calling herself a maidservant does not break the rules.
He Yanxiu didn't respond and went straight into the hall.
Instructing Ai Cao and Mama Liu to pack up the things in the stall, Su Yujin sat He Yanxiu down and hurriedly went to boil water to make tea.
"I really don't know what kind of tea the second master likes. He doesn't have to entertain guests on weekdays, so he doesn't prepare decent tea. In the spring, there were a few peach blossoms on the mugwort. My maid saw that the flowers were blooming well, so she picked some petals.
It has been dried into peach blossom tea, can you try it, Master?"
When Su Yujin came over with tea, she saw a bowl on the coffee table next to He Yanxiu.
In order to make the stall look more neat and formal, Su Yujin bought bowls of the same design and color, so she could recognize the bowl at a glance as the one used in Su Kee's stall.
The second master knew that she was doing business by setting up a stall, so he came to investigate?
Su Yujin first brought the tea to He Yanxiu's hand, first praised He Yanxiu for a blessing, then lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, saying the reasons he had prepared.
"It's my servant who has taken charge of setting up a stall and doing business without permission. Please punish me."
He Yanxiu picked up the cup of peach blossom tea, blew on the hot air, took a sip, and said, "Tell me the reason."
"Thanks to the Second Master, I was lucky enough to follow the Second Master. The Second Master treated the maid kindly, arranged a place to live, gave servants, and even gave the servant some money for expenses. However, the servant was temporarily blinded by lard, so she only
When I flew up the branches and became a master in the future, I spent every day so much that I had no rice to cook with, so I had to think of some ways to make a living..."
"Since you have no money to live, why don't you write a letter to Beijing?" He Yanxiu asked.
"The second master is busy with government affairs, and I don't dare to disturb you. I know that I made a big mistake because of myself, and I also feel that I shouldn't let the second master deal with my servant's aftermath."
Su Yujin's voice was small, "My servant knows a little bit about cooking. After discussing with my servants, I opened this wonton stall. The business is pretty good, and now I can take care of the daily needs of the three of us..."
Because he was proud for a while, he squandered it wantonly, only to regret it when all the money was spent and he had no food to eat.
This is a situation that ordinary people often encounter.
However, in this situation, most people will ask others for help and shout, I will never do it again, you have to believe me.
There are very few people who can figure out a solution on their own like Su Yujin.
Although some things were done incorrectly in the early stage, in the final analysis, it was a peace of mind.
He Yanxiu's face softened, "I understand."
"Thank you, Second Master." Su Yujin breathed a sigh of relief, "Second Master, I'm full for lunch, do you want to use some more? There are ready-made vegetables, and it's quick to make two dishes."
"I still have something to do, so I won't stay any longer."
He Yanxiu stood up, called Xing'an over, and asked him to bring something to Su Yujin, "Take this first."
When Su Yujin saw that it was a two hundred tael silver note, she thanked him happily again, "Thank you, Second Master, for the reward."
He Yanxiu raised his feet and walked out.
Su Yujin went to deliver food. When he reached the street, he boldly asked, "Second Master, what about..."
He Yanxiu saw that her eyes were timid and full of expectation. He remembered his original intention and the words "it will come when there is time" lingered on his lips for a long time, thinking about whether to spit it out.
"Then...can I continue to set up the wonton stall?"
