As expected, one should never underestimate the second master's shamelessness!
He Yanxiu has always been a man of his word, and today is no exception.
The candlelight in the house burned almost until dawn, and the hot water was boiled four times in the small kitchen in the yard.
It happened to be a day off the next day, so He Yanxiu simply didn't get up early and just stayed with Su Yujin.
Su Yujin felt as if her whole body was falling apart. She fell into a deep sleep in the morning. When she opened her eyes, she found that it was already past noon. She got up quickly and said, "It's over, it's over..."
"What's wrong?" He Yanxiu, like a lazy cat, put his arms around Su Yujin's slender waist and rubbed her body, "What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"We agreed yesterday to have lunch with grandma and mother today, but we haven't gone yet. They must have sent someone to ask several times."
People came to ask one after another, and what they saw was that the two of them had never gotten up...
Su Yujin's face suddenly turned as red as an apple.
"So it's about this matter." He Yanxiu said with a smile, "Grandmother and mother didn't send anyone to ask."
"Huh?" Su Yujin's face was full of confusion, and she even paused in putting on her clothes.
"The candles were lit all night last night, so grandma and mother must have known about it." He Yanxiu smiled slyly, "I guess grandma and mother didn't plan to have lunch together, at most they would have dinner together. It's still early for dinner now, so it won't be too late to sleep for a while."
Su Yujin, "..."
This is more embarrassing than asking over and over again! In short, Su Yujin couldn't stand it anymore, and she insisted on getting out of bed regardless of He Yanxiu's trickery and not letting her get up.
Seeing this, He Yanxiu had no choice but to call people in to clean up and fetch water for washing.
After some tidying up, Su Yujin changed her clothes and combed her hair, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Shui Lan bowed, "The old lady had some food sent over earlier, and I told them to warm it up on the stove in the small kitchen. Do the princess and the second master need some now?"
"Bring it here." Su Yujin said.
There was still some time before dinner, and she was starving because she was too "tired" last night, and she urgently needed a meal.
"Yes." Shuilan responded and called the other maids to go to the small kitchen to get food.
A variety of dishes were soon served on the table.
Fish maw and abalone stewed with morels, black chicken stewed with ginseng and deer antlers, spare ribs stewed with donkey hide gelatin and cordyceps, pigeon stewed with angelica and red dates...
They are all very nourishing!
Su Yujin, "..."
The old lady is so worried about her.
Su Yujin was sighing here, when she suddenly noticed a small soup bowl placed alone in front of He Yanxiu. He Yanxiu's expression looked quite strange at this moment.
"What is this?" Su Yujin poked his head to take a look.
He Yanxiu took the lid to block it, and said with a smile, "Something that cannot be described."
After these words were spoken, Su Yujin immediately understood and the corners of her mouth twitched even more.
The old lady is the old lady, she is very fair! ——Su Yujin spent a few more days checking the business conditions of other shops in the capital.
Like Juweizhai, the business of other shops is also booming, and can be described as making huge profits every day.
Seeing the thick stack of large-denomination banknotes handed over by the chief shopkeeper, Su Yujin couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
It turns out that getting money is the best feeling!
Speaking of which, when she first came to this world and started making money, she had an immature idea, which was to try the feeling of sleeping on money.
Now it seems that I am fully capable of covering the entire bed with silver ingots.
And it’s an extra-large bed!
But then again, silver ingots and the like have sharp edges and corners, and even if you cover them with thick bedding, they would still feel uncomfortable and you wouldn't sleep comfortably.
How about...
Sleeping on banknotes?
Su Yujin thought this was a great idea, so when she returned home that night, she asked Qingkui and Shuilan to help her pack her bedding and spread the banknotes on the bed one by one.
When He Yanxiu returned home from the Ministry of Revenue, he happened to see Su Yujin busy at work.
Has my wife's preference changed from shiny gold to silver bills?
He Yanxiu subconsciously tightened the purse hanging around his waist, and after tossing and turning all night and unable to fall asleep, he went to the Ministry of Rites early the next day.
He wanted to find Su Wenxuan and inquire about the recent business conditions of shipping trade.
In addition, I would also like to discuss whether there are other better ways to make money.
Suitable for him to do.
But after arriving at the Ministry of Rites, He Yanxiu did not see Su Wenxuan.
After asking, it was learned that Su Wenxuan did not come to the yamen today. The reason for not coming to the yamen was that he needed to accompany the fifth princess to Yunling Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings today.
He Yanxiu, "..."
Although the eldest uncle is older than him and usually does things more calmly and rigorously than him, he has changed now! His mind is full of love and affection, which is really beyond words.
Can't you be more mature like him?
Really...
Soon it was the Dragon Boat Festival.
Taking advantage of the fact that the weather was not yet completely hot, Su Yujin took a carriage to Qinghe. He Yanxiu accompanied her and they all went to Su Yujin's Princess Mansion in Qinghe.
When Mother Liu saw Su Yujin, she was very excited and hurriedly pulled Su Yujin to ask about her well-being. "Miss, you have been away for such a long time. I really missed you so much..."
As he spoke, he was already in tears and choking with sobs.
"My old servant's eye sockets are shallow now, and tears are easily shed. I have been laughed at by the young lady." Mama Liu wiped her tears with her hand and grinned, "The young lady has been doing well in recent years. Look, the young lady has gained some flesh on her face compared to before."
"Everything is fine." When the master and servant met again, Su Yujin's eyes also became misty, "Is mom okay? Is she well?"
"Okay, all is fine. Here, everything has to be done by the boys and girls below. I am very free here and have never been tired."
Mother Liu smiled and said, "The young lady is thinking about me, so she always sends people to bring me food, drink, clothes and daily necessities. I am here purely to enjoy myself."
"That's good……"
After a detailed chat, Su Yujin noticed that Mother Liu had a rosy complexion and was in very good spirits. The maids under her were also well-behaved. Su Yujin felt relieved.
It was noon, and Mother Liu went into the kitchen to prepare lunch for Su Yujin.
Three-cup chicken, stir-fried bean sprouts, celery and dried tofu, and sweet and sour carp are all home-cooked dishes that Su Yujin liked to eat when she was still in Qinghe.
Especially this three cups chicken, which was how Su Yujin taught Liu's mother how to make, and now Liu's mother made it specially for her to eat...
Su Yujin felt warm in her heart and praised her endlessly, "Mom's cooking skills are getting better and better. The chicken she cooked is even more delicious than mine."
