Chapter 235 A gentleman came to the village
Su Tai smiled more kindly and winked at Han. Soon Han went to the backyard and brought Ke Yunyun over.
Ke Yunyun took off her veil and bowed to Tang Yu respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Tang."
"What is this?" Tang Yu was a little confused.
Su Tai hurriedly introduced, "Mr. Tang came to our village to educate Mrs. Zhu's grandson, didn't he? This is the child's biological mother, her surname is Ke."
Tang Yu quickly stood up and returned the greeting.
Ke Yunyun smiled and said softly, "Mr. Tang, you're welcome. I came to see you today because I have something to ask of you."
Then Ke Yunyun and Su Tai told their situation in detail.
Fearing that Tang Yu would not spare Ke Yunyun and her son, Su Tai told them the original situation, "My uncle's family lives in the Ice Field, and their life is hard. Her body can't stand the climate of the Ice Field, so she wanted to stay in our house temporarily to recuperate, but who knew that Master Zhu would take a fancy to her.
Mr. Zhu insisted on taking her as a concubine, but my cousin was unwilling. Due to many considerations, she had no choice but to become Mr. Zhu's mistress.
But my cousin has never thought about the Zhu family's money. She has always lived a closed-door life. She earns her own money, but she has never thought of relying on Mr. Zhu for survival."
Wan nodded her head in agreement, "We have been selling strawberries and watermelons in the city for two years. The money my niece has saved is enough for them to live comfortably for the rest of their lives. They don't want to be involved with the Zhu family anymore, but the eldest lady of the Zhu family knows about them.
My niece and the child are in danger now, and we can only hide them temporarily, but we can't hide them forever, don't you think? "
Tang Yu nodded slowly and said thoughtfully: "If that's the case, the young lady and the young master are indeed in a worrying situation. How do you plan to deal with it?"
Su Tai was a little excited when she heard this, "Mr. Tang, I knew you were kind-hearted and would not stand by and watch someone die."
Tang Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Before he could speak, Su Tai had already told him her plan, "I want Mr. Tang to act as a family with my cousin and her son. My family has many houses, so I will rent them to you. In addition to teaching my cousin's children, Mr. Tang can also take care of other children in the village. Even our daughter can be taught by Mr. Tang.
In addition, my family has a workshop. Considering other businesses at the beginning, the workshop was built a little bigger. The front row is useful, and the back row is empty. It can be used as a classroom for teachers for free. There is also a living yard in the backyard of the workshop. There is a small door in the yard that leads to our house, but only my husband and I know about it.
The villagers have always believed that the two courtyards are independent. In the future, my cousin and the child can return to my side through that small door, and my husband can live in the backyard without being disturbed. What do you think?"
Tang Yu was stunned by Su Tai's boldness, "Mrs. Shen, this is inappropriate! What if people misunderstand it?"
Su Tai blinked in amusement, "Mr. Tang, you want to make people misunderstand you. When the time comes, you can just say that your wife is in poor health, so you sold your wealth in the city to pay for her medical treatment. Because I want to find an enlightenment teacher for my child, I brought my family to Shenjiazhuang. I will then tell others that Mr. Tang intends to open a school, but the number of places is limited, and ask everyone not to spread the word. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
After hearing this, Tang Yu couldn't help but praise Su Tai in his heart. This excuse was really perfect, and it could also give Ke Yunyun and her son a good identity. He was really impressed.
"Mr. Tang, what do you think?" Su Tai said nervously, "If you feel that these conditions are not enough, you can raise them again. Everything can be negotiated!"
Tang Yu came back to his senses, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "What Madam Shen said today is really a big shock to me. Can I think about it carefully?"
Su Tai nodded vigorously, "Mr. Tang, don't worry, think about it carefully. Anyway, we have to wait until it's completely dark before going back, so you still have time."
After finishing the main things, Su Tai relaxed and suddenly felt a little hungry, so she ran back to the donkey cart and went to the Fire Time and Space Food Street to order a super large beef hotpot.
After that, she took over the life in the kitchen, and whenever Ruan Xiaoyu wanted to help, she was driven out.
She waited until the time was almost up before going to Fire Time and Space again to pick up the goods.
The people who were talking in the main room faintly smelled a strong aroma of meat and all fell silent.
"What's that smell? What delicious food did Xiaotai make?" Wan said as she walked towards the kitchen.
Soon a small charcoal stove and a thick wooden board were brought over.
Han also went over to help.
After a while, a big hot pot appeared on the two large tables put together in the main room, and there were plates of fresh beef, meatballs and vegetables on the side.
Sun Ying'er asked in shock, "How did my cousin do that? It was like a magic trick."
Su Tai joked, "I brought it from home."
Ke Yunyun, Su Zhan and Su Ming were all a little puzzled.
Ke Yunyun thought that these things were placed on another ox cart, while the two brothers thought that Su Tai brought them into the carriage. Although they were puzzled, they did not investigate further.
Tang Yu was still hesitant at first, but after a meal of beef hotpot, he immediately made up his mind, "Okay! I promise you, but I will have to wrong the young lady and the young master."
Ke Yunyun was overjoyed and hurriedly stood up to thank me, "I am sorry, sir. As a result, you have not been able to find a partner for the past ten years. I really feel bad."
Tang Yu waved his hands and said, "I have no intention of getting married, so this is fine."
After the matter was settled, Su Tai asked the Su Ming brothers to drive the ox cart and donkey cart to take them back to Shenjiazhuang that night.
The two brothers rushed back overnight, and Tang Yu was temporarily arranged to work in the backyard of the workshop.
"There will be work tomorrow morning. After the people picking up the goods leave, sir, you and my cousin and her son will go to my second aunt's house to say hello. I will then take you to see the village chief and explain the situation. That's all."
Tang Yu bowed deeply, "Thank you for troubling Madam Shen."
It was the middle of the night and Tang Yu couldn't see the yard at all. He could only see the flat ground through the faint candlelight of the lantern in Su Tai's hand.
Just by looking at the ground, he could be sure that the Shen family was better off than the Su family.
After he entered the backyard wing room and lit the candle, he looked more and more surprised after seeing the furnishings in the room, “Mrs. Shen’s house is so beautiful!”
Not only is the floor of this house paved with bricks and stones, the walls are also painted neatly white, and the room is fully equipped with beds, cabinets, tables and chairs.
Su Tai smiled and said, "I'll fetch some water in a while. Sir, just wipe the bed and spread out the quilts and you can sleep. The quilts are all new and in the cupboard."
Tang Yu expressed his gratitude again.
When the water came, he did not ask Su Tai for help, but wiped the bed, tables, chairs and cabinets by himself.
He had just made the bedding when he heard some faint noises coming from the front yard, but it did not affect his rest.
