Chapter 64: I am so enthusiastic, I have to express it!
Su Sanlang really had an idea, but Chen Yu's attitude made him embarrassed to express his worries. He could only say: "Then my son should go to Sanshu Su's house."
Chen Yu stood up: "It just so happened. I was still thinking about who would accompany me. It would be you."
When the couple went out, Su Sanlang walked beside Chen Yu holding a lantern and holding snacks in the other hand.
Arriving at Su Deyan's door, Chen Yu looked at the door in front of him. Although the door was wide, it was very strong. It had two leaves and a copper door knocker. There was also a weeping willow planted in front of the door, which was kept clean.
Su Sanlang stepped forward and knocked on the door knocker.
"Who is it?" Mrs. Zhao walked out of the house and asked in a loud voice.
"Third aunt, my mother and I." Su Sanlang said.
Mrs. Zhao's face lit up immediately when she opened the door, and she held Chen Yu's hand warmly: "Second sister-in-law is here, come in quickly."
When Miao heard the commotion, she also came out and quickly went to the kitchen to boil water and make tea.
After entering the room, Su Deyan was holding the account book and placing it on the table: "Second sister-in-law came by chance. I was thinking about going over there, and it just happened to be done."
"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything." Chen Yu put the snacks on the table with a smile and sat down.
Ms. Zhao sat next to her: "No matter how polite you are, it's our own family's business."
"Yes, it's my own family's business." Su Deyan opened the account book and handed it over: "Please check the number of fields that people in our village have taken out over the years. Second sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry to go into the mountains or go out to take people away tomorrow."
When everyone is gathered together, things will be done easily."
Chen Yu quickly got up.
Su Deyan said hurriedly: "Second sister-in-law, this matter is not due to me. We are all members of the Su family, and we all hope that our family will be well. Now our room is not like before, and everyone is happy in their hearts."
"I can't thank you enough for your kindness." Chen Yu was really not good at being polite, so when she sat down, Mrs. Miao brought in tea.
After taking a sip of tea, Chen Yu said: "De Yan, I am grateful to our Su family for helping us. You say that only when you come and go can you be close. The rules for collecting herbs are also set to prevent trouble in the future. In other professions,
I wish everyone in the Su family could try it."
Su Deyan thought to himself, "Good guy, I'm really working hard for nothing. Look, good things are coming!"
Chen Yu took out the popcorn and put it on the table: "But you still have to come up with an idea about this matter. This is popcorn, the kind found in the mountains..."
"Corn, mother, I think it's appropriate to call her Corn." Su Sanlang said.
Chen Yu smiled: "Okay, let's call it corn. Let's try this popcorn first. It would be great if we could grow more varieties. If nothing else, just selling popcorn in Qingniu County can feed the family.
"
With that said, he handed the popcorn to Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao looked at Chen Yu: "Is this how you eat it?"
"Taste how it tastes." Chen Yu's eyes were full of encouragement.
Mrs. Zhao carefully brought one to her mouth, and after taking two bites, her eyes immediately gleamed: "Ouch, it's so delicious, it's so sweet and fragrant."
Su Deyan asked from the side: "Second sister-in-law, is there a lot of corn here?"
Chen Yu shook his head: "I don't know either. I saw one when I went into the mountain today. If you are okay with this, you can have people go into the mountain to look for it. We have treasures in Laojun Mountain and Mingzhu Mountain."
Su Deyan believed that in the past, the biggest benefit of Laojun Mountain and Mingzhu Mountain to the surrounding villagers was that they could eat wild vegetables and hunt, but now they can collect medicine, so they are treasure mountains.
"It won't work if there aren't so many. We won't have to worry about the imbalance of resources." Su Deyan said with some worry.
Chen Yu took out another handful of chili peppers and placed the bright red chili peppers on the table. Su Deyan's eyes gleamed. He saw them when he was walking around. These are what Su Yunniang grew in the back garden of his house. These are what Su Yunniang made.
The secret to delicious food.
"This is the seven-star pepper, which was also found in the mountains. I planted a few in my back garden. If anyone is willing, I can give the seeds next year, and our family will harvest the seven-star peppers they planted." Of course, Chen Yu noticed Su Deyan's expression.
Expression, speaking in a leisurely manner.
Su Deyan stood up and paced back and forth with some excitement: "Second sister-in-law, can your family get so many seven-star peppers?"
"To be honest, Yun Niang wants to open a restaurant. She needs as much seven-star pepper as she wants. The price is one tael of silver per catty," Chen Yu said.
Su Deyan stopped and looked at Chen Yu with wide eyes: "What? One tael of silver per pound?"
Chen Yu smiled sheepishly: "This price is sky-high, and I don't have many seeds. However, although the price of these seven-star peppers is high, the yield is lower, but it is more cost-effective than growing grain.
"
Su Deyan sat down slowly and frowned: "Second sister-in-law, this seven-star pepper is also a treasure, but if everyone grows it, it will end up being wasted if it is not used up. It is you, second sister-in-law, who will suffer the loss."
"Don't worry, I will keep my word, but I still keep the ugly words in my head. There is no way to restrict this kind of pepper, but my family only harvests the seven-star pepper grown by our Su family, and you need to get the seeds from me every year." Chen Yudun
After a while, he said: "Our Su family has returned the fields so smoothly. One cannot repay a favor."
Su Deyan nodded slowly: "Let's do this. Let's not talk about the seven-star peppers and corns for now. After we get the fields back, we will select a few households that specialize in growing seven-star peppers and just take a look step by step. As for the price, don't reveal it.
It’s not too late to tell you once you’ve made the reservation.”
Of course, Chen Yu knew that Su Deyan was on the safe side, and that he and she were just throwing out the bait first, and the gains were not small. At least Su Deyan was a person with a sense of balance in his heart, and he would not be greedy in order to cooperate for a long time.
"There is one more thing, I need his third uncle's help." Chen Yu said.
Su Deyan looked over and said, "Second sister-in-law, the whole family doesn't need to say polite words like helping. All we can do is say something to Deyan."
Chen Yu pursed her lips: "That's right, I rescued a child in Qingniu County. The child was a helpless beggar. The third wife's wife had a weak body, so I brought the child back.
I want to record it in the name of the third child, do you think this is okay?"
Everyone knows that Ms. Cui is sick. When Chen Yu said this, how could Su Deyan say no? He nodded: "I will write it down when the family tree is opened next spring, but now it is better to be cautious and not to be immature."
"That's natural." Chen Yu finished his work and wanted to get up and leave.
Mrs. Zhao said next to her: "Second sister-in-law, I heard that my family is going to build a house. Erlang and the others have hired people to demolish the house and collect materials. Don't be anxious about this matter. Let Deyan go to the Yamen to make a call first.
Say hello, I just need to carve out a piece of land."
Chen Yu had also thought about this problem, but if there were too many things, it would be troublesome, so he didn't originally plan to talk about it, but he didn't expect Zhao to bring it up.
Without waiting for Chen Yu to speak, Su Deyan said: "Tomorrow, my second son and I will go take a look. It's probably about the same. Once you have a picture, go to the Yamen and get it stamped. It's not difficult."
Chen Yu originally wanted to leave, but now she can't. The couple is so enthusiastic, and it's hard to do anything if she doesn't express her feelings!
