Chapter 13 Chen Siyu makes trouble again
The old lady of the Su family stood up.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, even though Second daughter-in-law spoke bluntly, she also cared about the children. Why do you have to be so harsh?"
Wei Furong was embarrassed to contradict her mother-in-law, so she had to change the subject.
"Father, Mother, this is Jun Moye, Chuchu's husband."
The subconscious meaning is, the Jun family is still here! You are not afraid of losing face.
Jun Moye bowed to the old lady.
"Mo Ye greets the old man and the old lady."
Su Hanchu also greeted with a smile.
"Grandma, when I was still at my mother's house, my mother often taught me that the Su family has been able to do things without worries for many years thanks to my grandparents' understanding of things.
Therefore, the younger generations of our Su family must all respect our grandparents. Food wasn't easy to find along the way, but Mo Ye and I were lucky enough to catch a few fish today. Remembering Mother's teachings, I brought two and asked Mother to cook them for Grandparents to taste."
Upon hearing this, a relieved smile appeared on Mr. Su's face.
"Well, your mother has always been a very good Mrs. Su, and has taught you children very well."
Su Hanchu took out a seasoning packet containing salt, MSG, a few chilies, cardamom, ginger slices and garlic, and placed it in Wei Furong's hand.
"Mother, when you boil water later, put this in. Once the water boils, cook the fish. This way, the fish will taste delicious. Don't refuse this fish. The Jun family has enough. I know my limits. Besides, Jun Moye took the initiative to send it to me."
Then he looked at the old man and old lady of the Su family.
"Grandpa, grandma, I'm going back first. I'll come to see you another day. Take care on your journey, grandpa and grandma."
Jun Moye also bowed to the old master and old lady of the Su family.
Then he said to Wei Furong.
"Mother, please rest assured. I will take good care of Hanchu."
Seeing that she couldn't refuse the fish, Wei Furong had no choice but to accept it. She hurriedly took out the fish and returned the fish basket to Su Hanchu, thinking that she would give something to the Jun family next time.
Jun Moye took the fish basket and walked back with Su Hanchu.
When we returned to the Jun family's resting place, Mother Cui had already sliced the fish, washed the wild vegetables, and the water in the pot was boiling.
Jun Linfeng came over with a bundle of firewood.
"I'm back."
Su Hanhan called out "Father" with a smile, then took out a packet of seasoning from her bag and threw it into the pot.
Jun Moye looked at her taking the things, but his expression changed. The bag was not big. What did she put in it? Why did it feel like there was everything in it? And when did she buy so many seasoning packets?
This isn't the first time it's been brought out.
Su Hanchu waited for the seasoning packet to cook for a while, tasted the soup and felt that the saltiness was a little lacking, so he added some more. Alas, he really wanted to take out a packet of hot pot base. If he added a packet of hot pot base, the taste would be simply amazing. Unfortunately, he took it out himself and didn't know how to explain it.
After making sure that the saltiness is enough, put the fish into the pot, and soon the fish aroma will be released.
After the fish was cooked, Su Hanchu served it out in a large bowl, put the remaining fish meat in a basin, and poured the fish on the chopping board into the basin to cook.
Although the fish are not very big, there are four of them after all, and I can't cook them all at once. Next time I buy some, I have to find a chance to take out the big pot in the space.
After signaling Ping'er to keep an eye on the pot, Su Hanchu took the bowl of fish soup and went to the waiter.
The leader who led the Jun and Chen families away in groups was You Chatou, and there were four other escorts.
Su Hanchu's face was full of smiles.
"Captain You, we're lucky today. We caught two fish. I've cooked them. Give you a bowl to try. Don't think it's too little."
You Chatou took a sip of wine to warm himself up.
Looking at the steaming fish, the aroma filled the air and made me hungry.
He signaled a bailiff to bring a bowl.
He took the bowl from Su Hanchu's hand and poured out the fish.
"Mrs. Jun is a very kind-hearted lady. Why don't you tell me what's going on?"
Su Hanchu took the empty bowl and spoke with a smile.
"It's nothing, it's just cold. A little hot soup, a little token of my appreciation. Next time, when you guys go shopping, could you please give us a favor and let us do some shopping? The weather is getting colder, and we need to buy some fabric to make some clothes or something."
Yu Chatou spoke upon hearing this.
"When have you not gone shopping? Okay, I promise you can go in pairs, just don't cause any trouble."
Su Hanchu's face lit up when he heard that.
"Yes, don't worry, Chief Youcha, we will definitely not cause any trouble."
Then walk back.
Su Hanchu just arrived at the Jun family's resting place.
But he saw several ladies with some unhappy-looking children kneeling down in front of him all of a sudden.
"Princess Consort, please, have mercy on the child and give him something to eat! We, as mothers, are incompetent and the child has been hungry for two days."
Su Hanchu was shocked by this scene. What was going on?
Jun Moye walked to her side, held her hand, and looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground with a bad expression on his face.
Su Hanchu calmed down for a moment, and his voice was a little cold when he spoke.
"What are you going to do?"
A woman kowtowed fiercely to Su Hanchu.
"Please, Princess, please be kind. We are really desperate. If we continue like this, the child will starve to death. Please have mercy on the child."
Su Hanchu narrowed his eyes.
"Although the food wasn't very good during the exile, the escorts gave out steamed buns in the morning and wowotou in the evening. What makes you say the child is going to starve to death?"
The woman continued to cry.
"Princess, we haven't eaten for two days. Please, give us some!"
Su Hanchu looked at these children, all of whom looked timid. He was afraid that they really had nothing to eat. He looked at these people carefully and saw that each of them had a desperate look on their faces. He was afraid that their food had been stolen.
"We are on the road of exile, and we are all common people. If you want your children to survive, then you as mothers must stand up for yourself.
Don't be unable to protect your own things. If someone steals your steamed bread, you should take it back yourself. I'm not a saint, so it's okay for you to come to me and cry."
Two of the women stepped aside, holding their children with sad expressions.
One of the women looked at Su Hanchu angrily and started crying.
"Princess, we've fallen into this situation because of the Qin Palace. Since you're capable of finding so much food, why can't you have some pity on the children? Are all those of you in high positions evil?"
Su Hanchu couldn't help but frown. What kind of talk was this? Should he share the food he found with others?
Suddenly a voice was heard.
"Cousin, since you can always find so much food, why not share some with these children? Look at them, they are so hungry that they have no energy. You are a kind person, you will not watch them starve to death, right? They will be grateful to you in the future."
Su Hanchu looked over when he heard the voice, and saw Chen Siyu supporting Chen Wenqiao walking towards him...
