Chapter 96: Decisive Rejection

Chapter 96 Decisive Rejection

Author: Yuan Jia

Chapter 96 Decisive Rejection

County seat, Fengjia.

Shopkeeper Xu carefully looked at Feng Yicheng who was sitting on the main seat drinking tea, and thought to himself, Feng Yicheng likes to stay in restaurants on weekdays, but... since when, Feng Yicheng doesn't go to restaurants at all.

"You came here but the restaurant is out of business?"

Feng Yicheng's voice rang in his ears. Shopkeeper Xu quickly recovered and shook his head: "The restaurant business is very good. Among the restaurants currently operating in the county, our restaurant dares to be ranked second in business, and no one dares to be ranked first."

"Yeah." The expectation in Feng Yicheng's eyes dimmed.

When Shopkeeper Xu saw that Feng Yicheng was silent again, he was a little confused about what he meant: "My boss really doesn't have to worry about the restaurant's business. Miss Ehuang came to a small business to cooperate with Douhua some time ago."

"Goose Huang found you?"

"Yes. Miss Gouhuang said that boiling tofu pudding in spicy fish is a special feature, and it can also be named tofu pudding. After trying it, many people really like it." Shopkeeper Xu laughed when he thought of tofu pudding.

Hey, there are really many ways to eat bean curd and tofu. Being able to establish a cooperative relationship with Xiao Su Restaurant is not a loss at all. Su Jian is a capable person!

When Feng Yicheng heard this, his expression became even darker. The restaurant's business was good and there was no shortage of new dishes. What excuse could he use to find Su Jian and visit Qi Mo? After all, Qi Mo had just started studying to be a master, but... Su Jian was so busy.

, can he see her?

At this moment, Fengyi City felt very powerless.

Shopkeeper Xu felt the low pressure on Feng Yicheng and thought of the main purpose of his visit today: "My boss, our relationship with the general's wife must be firmly consolidated." He had a hunch that Su Jian could make money from him.

There must be many ways!

Feng Yicheng's heart sank, and he looked at Shopkeeper Xu with an evil look. He didn't need Shopkeeper Xu to remind him that Su Jian was Zhan Zhan's wife!

"My boss knows about it. My eldest brother works as a master in the county government. At yesterday's party, I happened to hear my eldest brother talk about the Su family. He said that the Su family is still beautiful on the surface, but there has been a problem inside for a long time."

"Something went wrong?"

"Yes, it is said that most of the Su family's shops have changed owners, and even... yesterday, the Su family's ancestral home was listed for sale."

Feng Yicheng's eyes changed and he looked straight at Shopkeeper Xu: "Are you sure?"

Shopkeeper Xu felt guilty when Feng Yicheng saw it: "The younger one was also very surprised at the time, so he drank a few more glasses of wine to make sure it was true."

"..." Feng Yicheng was confused. The Su family was one of the richest families in the county. In a sense, the Su family could stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the county.

Shopkeeper Xu saw that Feng Yicheng was silent and thought he was worried about the demise of the Su family: "My boss, in fact, nothing about the Su family will affect our cooperation with the general's wife.

Although the general’s wife’s surname is Su and she is a daughter of the Su family, she is already the general’s wife. And in our cooperation with her, what we value is not her surname, but her background. What we value is her ability!”

After Shopkeeper Xu finished speaking, when Feng Yicheng didn't speak, he boldly continued: "If Madam is in trouble now and we help her at this time, she will definitely feel grateful and will think of us when there are new dishes in the future."

Feng Yicheng turned his head and felt confused: "Pay more attention to this matter. I'll go find Su Jian and ask about the situation."

Shopkeeper Xu was stunned and was about to say something, but Feng Yicheng didn't give him a chance to speak and left directly.

Feng Yicheng had always wanted to find a reason to see Su Jian, and now he indeed had a reason, but... he was worried and began to worry about Su Jian's ability to bear it.

"Ah sneeze!"

Su Jian sneezed. Logically speaking, the weather was no longer cold, and was even very warm, but standing on the ridge of the field, with such a small wind blowing, it was still quite cool.

"lady!"

Su Jian turned her head and looked at Xiong Da who appeared next to her: "Is school over?"

"yes."

"Did you go to all Zhenghe Tieniu's classes in the village today?"

"Yes." Xiong Da glanced at Su Jian and continued: "At first, they were very reserved in their lectures, but later on, everyone just chatted about how to farm, how to check the quality of crops, and how to judge the weather.

And so on.”

Su Jian nodded: "What about the people attending the lecture?"

"You guys are still eager to learn, but..." Xiong Da was silent for a while, and then he clasped his fists and saluted Su Jian: "Madam is smart, there are some things that even if you hide them from Madam, Madam should be aware of them."

Su Jian glanced at Xiong Da, is it clear? She has been in a semi-clear and semi-confused state since she came to the General's Mansion. Although she was confused about some things, she did not want to clarify them, because even now, she has not

She completely regarded herself as a member of the general's palace.

Seeing that Su Jian was silent, Xiong Da said bravely: "There are many people in the General's Mansion, so it is inevitable that some people's thoughts are not on the General's Mansion. I was thinking... Madam has already asked everyone to sign the deed of betrayal, so why not sign it?"

Those who sold themselves out...can we let them leave?"

Su Jian's eyelids moved and she raised her eyes to look at Xiong Da: "Are you sure you can let them leave?"

Xiong Da felt guilty when Su Jian saw him, but he didn't want to be as confused as before. Since he decided to live a good life, he wanted to follow Su Jian and make the general's mansion better: "I think this way I can manage it better."

Good General Mansion, after all, thunder, rain and dew are all the Lord’s favor.”

Su Jian withdrew her gaze. She knew what Xiong Da said made sense, but she still had to think about it. She was not worried about what her actions would cause. After all, when she had nothing before, she still relied on her lonesome courage.

She has done whatever she wanted to do, not to mention that now she has so many bonds of renunciation in her hand and has something to rely on.

It's just... she just doesn't want to agree to Xiong Da right away. She needs to figure out what the situation is in the General's Mansion. Or maybe, if she delays it for a little longer, Xiong Da may tell her more.

But... get rid of the people who don't belong to her, leaving only those who belong to her and listen to her words. In other words, her living environment, family, safety and stability are guaranteed.

The temptation is too great!

Xiong Da did not wait for Su Jian to speak, and did not dare to urge her. He only continued with other things: "Madam, before leaving the village, I want to hear what Madam said."

"..."

"Many wheat fields in their village are infected with powdery mildew, and a lot of medicines were taken away from the village. I heard from the villagers that the medicine prepared by my wife is effective."

Su Jian understood: "As long as it works."

"They want my wife to be the crop steward in the village. They said that after the grain harvest in the village, they will collectively collect a hundred catties of grain for my wife." Xiong Da continued.

Su Jian's eyes moved and she looked at Xiong Da thoughtfully: "Give me a hundred catties of grain?"

"yes."

That was a disguised way of paying her a salary! But... Su Jian shook her head and refused without thinking: "A general's office is enough to give me a headache, but now I don't have the ability to take care of more."

Xiong Da pondered the meaning of Su Jian's words, and immediately admired Su Jian more deeply. As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but the words "greater responsibility" are very important, because people must learn to recognize their own abilities.

Instead of thinking that you are great, you can take care of everything.

"I understand, I will come to the village tomorrow. I will make it clear to him."
