Chapter 377: Girls should not ask about men's affairs
"Thank goodness for your advice, Chenglou can stand out among so many peers. You are really smart in doing business." Su Yun was very satisfied looking at his Chenglou.
There are dozens of guys running errands and doing odd jobs in the front of the building. We rented a yard and arranged accommodation for them.
The environment is pretty good. It's a four-person room with a yard, a kitchen and a living room.
In short, if you want your subordinates to work hard when doing business, you must first show them how good you are as a boss, instead of just making empty promises.
"The taste is the most important thing. Everything else is secondary. So, Fourth Brother, you are still the one who has made the most contribution. If the food is not delicious, it will be useless no matter how fancy you make it. So, believe in yourself. You are the one who has put the most effort into Chenglou."
Su Wan always adheres to a belief about Fourth Brother: you have to praise him when you should, and criticize him when you should, otherwise Fourth Brother will easily become arrogant.
However, when it comes to professional matters, we still have to give him absolute affirmation and support and not let him lose confidence.
As Su Wan expected, Su Yun immediately became proud after hearing her compliments.
"That's because there aren't many people with my level of talent."
"Come on, where do you put Fifth Brother?" Su Wan felt that when it came to talent, it still had to be Su Yi.
"Every profession has its specialties. I'm only talking about cooking. Please don't get it confused, okay?" Su Yun said proudly.
He admitted that Lao Wu's talent was unquestionable, but he didn't want to compete with him in painting.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Have you spread the news that Chenglou will open the day after tomorrow?"
"They released it, and even posted a notice at the city gate. I begged my third brother for a long time before he agreed to let me put it up."
Su Yun shrugged. Su Chen was in the city defense camp. He said he wanted to borrow the bulletin board at the city gate, but he insisted that this was abusing public power for personal gain.
He wondered what the big deal was, it was just a piece of paper.
Finally, he threatened him that if he didn't agree, he would expose an ugly incident from his childhood and tell it to his other brothers.
Su Chen had no choice but to agree, but he only agreed to post it for one day.
"What secret can you tell me?" Su Wan was curious about what kind of scandal could scare her third brother, and she asked with a gossipy look on her face.
Su Yun pushed her head away with his hand:
"Girls shouldn't ask about things between men."
Su Yun directly rejected her and turned away.
Okay, Su Wan said, if you don’t want to ask, then don’t ask.
The two siblings returned home. The fifth brother still hadn't come back today, but the eldest brother brought a message.
"On the first day of June, there will be a royal hunting trip. Our family has an invitation. As a princess, you, Wanwan, must attend. Your third brother and I will go and can bring our families. Your sister-in-law will accompany you."
Su Jing is now deeply favored by the emperor, so he must be on the invitation list.
Su Chen is a military general and is in the city defense camp. This time he was transferred to the enclosure and cooperate with the commander of the Royal Guards to protect the safety of the emperor and the overall security of the enclosure.
With him were several young military generals.
Su Wan guessed it again. If the third brother was going, he would definitely be a bodyguard.
"Okay, I'll get ready."
It is said that we will be staying in the enclosure for half a month, so we have to pack some luggage, including spare clothes, daily necessities and so on.
"You've never been there before, so you might not know what to prepare. Let me help you prepare."
Shen Qingli took the initiative to take on this matter.
Su Wan is not only her sister-in-law, but also her good sister. She did so much for her voluntarily.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. If you keep doing this, I'll start to doubt whether I'm a three-year-old child." Su Wan stepped forward and took her hand.
"We are a family, why are you being so polite? Besides, you are the youngest child in the family. If we don't spoil you, who will?" Shen Qingli scratched her nose.
For a long time, Su Wan's image of her has always been that of a gentle big sister who is very caring.
Shen Qingli was very grateful to Su Wan. If she had not traveled thousands of miles to the capital to find her, perhaps she and Su Jing would have missed each other in this life and would never have been as comfortable and happy as they are now.
"Princess, Princess Jiacheng is here and said she sent you some riding clothes."
It seems that Jiacheng is well-informed and even prepared clothes for her.
"Let's go, let's go see Jiajia."
Su Wan always called her Jia Jia in private.
Su Chen came back after patrolling the streets this morning. They take turns, sometimes he patrols in the afternoon and sometimes in the morning.
In the front hall, Jiacheng had indeed prepared several sets of riding clothes, in bright red, with two different styles, similar to the grassland style. They were not bright red, but they were very suitable for Su Wan.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!"
"I think this color definitely suits you better than me, but I was afraid it wouldn't fit you, so I bought it directly from a ready-made clothing store. You can try it on and you can exchange it if it doesn't fit." Jiacheng explained with a smile.
When Su Wan heard that it was bought, she felt a little embarrassed. She was so good to her, what should she buy in exchange?
After thinking carefully, she said to Firefly:
"Liuying, I still have an unopened box of Ice Skin Jade Bone Cream. Go get it and give it to Princess Jiacheng!"
The jade bone paste sells for one hundred taels on the market, which is enough to repay the favor.
"Is it the signature beauty cream from the newly opened Bingjitang? I've heard about it. My brother bought me a box a while ago, and it's almost finished."
Jiacheng is a princess, so she should have used all the new things in Kyoto.
Yuyan Cream is useful but the dosage is small. If you use it morning and night, you need at least two bottles a month, which is two hundred taels. What kind of family spends two hundred taels a month?
What's more, if there are many women in a family, it would be a huge expense for each of them to have a can.
"Yes, I happen to have some, but I don't know what gift to give you in return. Please don't be disgusted."
"I don't mind, I don't mind." Jiacheng waved his hand.
…
In the back garden, Su Chen was practicing with a sword and was sweating all over. The weather was getting hotter, and the more exercise he did, the more sweat he would sweat.
He stopped to wipe the sweat off his face, and when he turned around he found Mimi standing behind him with a fruit plate in her hand.
The green grapes, each one crystal clear and round, as well as sliced apples and lychees that are ripe in season, are cooled with crushed ice and emit a cold air.
"General Su!" Mimi called him. She was now wearing the maid's uniform of the Su Mansion, but it still couldn't hide her beauty.
"Why are you in the front yard?" Su Chen asked with a frown.
He remembered that his sister-in-law had told her not to appear in the front yard unless necessary.
"I saw you were sweating from practicing martial arts under the sun, so I thought of bringing you some iced fruit to quench your thirst. Don't worry, I'll be back in the backyard right away."
Mimi explained with her head down, feeling aggrieved.
