Chapter 143 Pomegranate's Request
Su Tai smiled and thought seriously, "My cousin's child is named Su Yongzhang, so let's name our daughter after him, Chen Yuezhang. 'Zhang' means beautiful, how do you think?"
"This is a good name! It sounds grand." Shen Yi gave great affirmation.
Han originally thought that the young couple was fooling around, but when she heard the name Su Tai gave her, she immediately fell silent.
So Shen Yuezhang's name was established.
Shen Yi was delighted and even went to Shen Zhuang's house to tell them about it.
"Uncle and aunt, listen to how grand my daughter's name is. She will definitely be extraordinary in the future."
Xu was amused by his silly look and laughed out loud, "Yes, yes, our girl Yue Zhang is definitely destined to be rich!"
After hearing this, Shen Yi left with satisfaction.
Xu laughed so hard that tears were about to come out.
Shen Liang murmured, "Mom, my cousin must be so happy! With his and his wife's ability to make money, how can their daughter not be rich?"
"So your mother wasn't wrong!" Chen Zhuang knocked on his son's head and shook his head, "So stupid!"
Shen Liang: “.”
A baby born in the middle of winter is precious, and no matter how much Shen Yi wanted to show off, he didn't dare to take the baby out, let alone let too many people come to his house. He had to discuss with Su Tai to make some big brown sugar steamed buns and give one to each family, as a way of announcing the good news to the villagers.
The people who got the brown sugar buns were very surprised, and auspicious words came out like crazy.
Shen Ying took a bite of the brown sugar bun, and her eyes lit up immediately, "Good stuff! Definitely good stuff! It seems that Shen Yi really loves this daughter! Mother, you should also send some gifts later and praise the child more. Shen Yi and his wife will definitely be happy."
Shen Ying's wife, He, was confused.
Shen Ying explained, "You haven't understood in the past few years? Since Shen Yi married Su, his life has changed every day. This autumn, the twenty acres of wasteland that was reclaimed had a bumper harvest. The grain sold was worth at least a thousand taels. Their family is bound to be rich. We have to get closer to them. We may be able to ask for help in the future."
He thought of Shen Yi's ability, and without saying a word, she went to the kitchen, picked up a basket of eggs, and hurried out.
When He walked to the door of Shen Yi's house, she happened to meet Huang Xinghua coming over.
Huang Xinghua hurriedly greeted He.
He looked at the basket of yellow apricot flowers.
Huang Xinghua smiled shyly and explained, "We have saved some eggs at home. Thanks to Chen Yi and Su Tai, our family has been better off this year, so I came here to congratulate them."
He smiled and said, "Me too, come on, let's go in together. By the way, your family bought some land, how is the house going?"
Huang Xinghua suppressed her inner excitement and said with some stammering: "It's almost done! We can pack up slowly, there's no rush."
He nodded, "It will be plenty of time for your eldest son to get married in two years, there's really no need to rush."
As they were talking, the two of them entered the yard.
There were not many villagers who came to give gifts that day, but not a few either. Some gave eggs, some gave steamed buns, and the kitchen of Su Tai's family was filled with things.
In the evening, Shen Yi had just closed the shop when he unexpectedly saw another visitor.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was a pomegranate.
Shi Liu came in with two boxes and handed them to Shen Yi politely. "Our eldest young master specially prepared this gift for Miss Shen's full moon. Please don't dislike it, Master Shen."
"Mr. Ma, you are too polite." Shen Yi took the things readily.
This made Shi Liu look at her with a higher opinion. She straightened her mind and asked nervously, "My master asked me to ask Master Shen if he could send more Guokui during this period?"
"Hmm?" Shen Yi didn't quite understand.
Shi Liu sighed and explained, "Some time ago, our eldest young master's wife's brother from her mother's family came to Moshi Town and ate Guokui in our restaurant. He then asked our eldest young master to give him the chef who made Guokui.
Our eldest young master explained the situation, but the man from the Bai family didn't believe it. He thought our eldest young master was trying to evade him and scolded my master.
My master feels wronged, but this thing was definitely not made by our chef, so what?
Because the Bai family left in anger, my master and the eldest master were afraid that they would be blamed by the Bai family, so they asked me to ask Master Shen if he could make more pot cakes. I asked someone to send them to the county town, and then I would explain to the Bai family master and mistress in person. "
Chen Yi frowned when he heard this, "The people in the Bai Mansion are too overbearing! Even if this pot cake was really made by Mr. Ma's chef, he can't just ask for it so naturally!"
Shi Liu's face turned pale, and she forced a bitter smile, "Who made my master just a concubine of the Bai family? How can the Ma family be compared with the Bai family? But the master has always loved my master, so he should not know about it. If I don't make this trip, there is no guarantee that Master Bai will confuse right and wrong, and then things will become complicated, which will not be good for anyone."
Shen Yi didn't want to cause any trouble. Now he had to support his wife and daughter, so he had to make more money. He didn't want to lose the Ma family's business, so he nodded and agreed, "Whenever Mr. Ma wants you to come over, just tell me in advance."
Pomegranate was overjoyed and said anxiously, "Tomorrow, tomorrow!"
After Shi Liu left, Su Tai asked in confusion, "Shi Liu seemed to have stayed a little longer today."
Shen Yi explained the situation.
Su Tai was subconsciously unhappy, "The Bai family is really overbearing! It's not a good thing for my uncle's family to follow such a master! Especially my eldest cousin, we don't know when Cuilan's matter will be exposed, what will we do then?"
Seeing Su Tai's worry, Shen Yi also frowned, "Well, I'll go find my father-in-law later, and tomorrow we'll go to the county town with Mr. Ma's people and personally deliver the things to the Bai family. If we get the chance, we'll meet with my uncle and the others.
If you need us to bring anything, please prepare it in advance. We will not be going into the city before the New Year this time."
I have to go there anyway, just a few days in advance.
Su Tai immediately went to the warehouse, took out some winter cotton cloth, and prepared a lot of brown sugar and some white sugar.
Shen Yi drove the donkey cart to Dongmen Village.
When Su Chunlin learned that Shen Yi was going to the county town, he agreed without saying a word, and also went to Su Yu to tell her.
That day, Su Chunlin and his group followed Shen Yi back and worked overnight to make pot cakes.
Before dawn, an ox cart set out from Shenjiazhuang and swayed slowly towards the town.
It was almost dark by the time they arrived at Baifu County.
It was so cold that Mr. Bai didn't go out again after inspecting the shop. Shi Liu asked the doorman to pass on the message.
Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai were waiting in the hall.
She led Shen Yi and the others in, and as soon as she stepped into the hall, she knelt down with a plop and saluted firmly.
Mr. Bai was in a good mood and said cheerfully, "Get up! What did Miss Rong ask you to come back for?"
