Chapter 1156: "Dog Licking" Brother
Xia Fengxiang is not as idle as Su Changan.
The reason why I can sit with Su Chang'an in Lingqi Pavilion today is that there is no morning court today, but there is a small court meeting, which is about the warships on the east coast and the transportation of food and grass from the south to the north and Yanbei. The most important thing is the envoys from various countries who are getting angry because they have been rejected everywhere.
There are also some other trivial matters that Xia Fengxiang needs to do personally. For example, Zhang Yuanyou and Yan Guixin have thoroughly investigated the matter that their son did and have a rough result, which they will report today.
Therefore, the barbecue on Su Changan's side naturally became a barbecue feast enjoyed by him and other people in Lingqi Pavilion.
The aroma of meat is refreshing.
Su Changan sat next to the small round table, and everyone else sat next to the fire and ate.
There was not much meat left, but the street food that Xia Xia and Lu Cai had bought was full.
Although it was a roadside snack, everyone ate it with gusto.
Su Changan held a piece of lamb chop and looked at Xun Xia and Lu Cai with a strange look on his face, and swung the lamb chop left and right in his hand. Ku Yue followed the lamb chop left and right, opening her mouth wide and trying to bite the meat.
After Su Changan listened to what Xuan Xia told Lu Cai about what had just happened at the Su Mansion, he was a little confused.
Even though such things have happened to him many times, he is still confused.
Because it seems that a lot of things have inexplicably become another version due to rumors.
Su Changan lifted the lamb chops and stopped moving.
Wow!
Kuyue bit the lamb chop, then ran to the side and started eating it happily.
Su Changan said: "Does it feel weird?"
After swallowing the fried dumplings in her mouth, Xia nodded: "I also felt it was very strange at the time."
Su Changan looked at Xuan Xia: "But is that little fat guy sure he wants to get 10,000 taels and send it to the palace?"
Xuan Xia nodded: "That's what Master Li Heng said to the man under Lord Su at that time."
Su Changan smiled and handed the water to Xunxia, "You bastard, why are you trying to do this?"
But after thinking for a while, he looked at Lu Cai and said, "How does that Shi Tuo look?"
Lu Cai was stunned for a moment, and quickly stood up: "Very..."
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately realized that the queen was not asking about this, so he changed his words and said, "He looked unhappy, but he didn't show it. However, from what the fourth young master said, I heard that he offended the Stone Village Master a little."
Su Changan couldn't help but frown. This silly boy was so smart in business, but how come he couldn't think that the man would be Youli's grandfather!
Why!
I worry so much every day!
Thinking of this, Su Changan glanced at the people around him and sighed again: "You will still need me to worry about you in the future."
Everyone raised their eyes and looked at Su Changan in confusion.
Su Changan shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I'm here, so you don't have to worry about the future."
Linghua, Xiangluo and the others looked at the empress strangely, not quite understanding what she was talking to herself.
However, after Su Chang'an took a look around, he found that the person who really worried him the most was Ruyu. But now Ruyu was in the martial arts field every day receiving instruction from Liu Huangwu, Diwu Shuang and others, and she was so absorbed in it that she forgot to eat and sleep, and was rarely around him.
But there is no need to worry about those things for them for the time being. The one who is giving a headache now is still Li Heng, after all, something has happened right now.
Su Changan actually wanted to show up, but he knew that his presence or absence were two different matters for Shi Tuo.
Shi Tuo would be wary of Su Wenqing being around, but he wouldn't be really wary of anything.
And since I am here, Shi Tuo would definitely not dare to say anything more.
For people in the underworld, identity is not important, strength is the most important.
But to be honest
Su Changan regretted not going.
The son scolds his father.
Want to see!
Su Changan fell into deep thought, imagining the scene of Su Liheng scolding Su Zifeng.
Seeing that the Queen was silent, Ku Yue licked her greasy fingers and said, "What are you worried about? I'll go and deal with Shi Tuo and it will be done. What! You still dare not marry that girl? You're stupid."
Su Changan turned around and looked at Kuyue.
Ku Yue said with a solemn oath: "I have dealt with the old poisonous creature, Meimada. Although it was troublesome, I have fought him. If the people from Twelve Caves had not come out, I would have won. He is just the leader of a village, even if he is from a big village, so what?"
Su Changan looked at Ku Yue.
Just as he was about to speak, he couldn't help but look back towards the end of the corridor.
I saw a young eunuch lifting the hem of his clothes and running towards this side quickly.
Seeing this, Lu Cai quickly stood up and ran towards the young eunuch.
When Lu Cai came back, he looked at Su Changan and said, "Madam, they said that the Third Young Master and the Third Old Master wanted to see you, and they were accompanied by two carriages."
Su Changan took the water and handed it to Lu Cai, motioning him to give it to the young eunuch and nodded to let Su Zifeng and the others come in.
When Xuan Xia heard this, she looked at Su Changan in confusion. After all, wasn't the Third Young Master meeting with Miss Youli today? Why did he come to the palace right now?
But Xuan Xia did not ask, but looked at Su Changan: "My queen, please clean up here."
Su Changan waved his hand: "You guys should eat and drink, it's not something shameful."
Xunxia nodded, but still went to the yard to carry chairs and prepare tea.
When he saw Su Liheng, Su Changan looked at him from afar and couldn't help but smile. He said that he went there to suffer, and he heard his mother and third aunt talking about it all the time, but he came back fatter and looked much better.
Seeing Su Changan from a distance, after not seeing her for a few months, Su Liheng looked over at her and thought, my goodness, why does the elder sister look better? Hmm! She is indeed my elder sister. She looks like she is holding some pearls and jade when she holds a bun in her hand.
But thinking like this, Su Liheng turned his head and looked at Su Zifeng beside him: "Dad, don't talk later, otherwise you will make my eldest sister angry, I..."
When he said this, Su Liheng noticed that his father looked at him with a bad look, so he immediately shut up, jumped off the carriage, ran a few steps in the direction of Su Changan, and then looked back at Su Zifeng: "Why are you glaring at me! If you did something wrong, just admit it! I'm here to apologize to you!"
After saying that, he didn't dare to look at Su Zifeng anymore, and quickly turned around and ran towards Su Changan.
As soon as he approached Su Changan, Su Liheng immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen."
Su Changan laughed and scolded, "You keep calling me big sister, and now you're suddenly like this?"
Su Liheng raised his eyes and grinned: "We still have to talk about the rules that shouldn't be mentioned."
As he spoke, Su Liheng lowered his head to look at the things on the table, and his expression suddenly changed.
Su Changan saw Su Zifeng coming over and stood up to greet him.
Su Zifeng immediately said: "I dare not. The palace still has its own rules."
As he spoke, Su Zifeng bowed and said, "Your Highness, I, Su Zifeng, greet you."
Su Changan quickly helped him up.
But before Su Changan could speak, Su Liheng came to Su Zifeng, pointed at the food on the table and said, "Dad, look at what big sister is eating. Think about what big sister brought us!"
After saying that, she looked at Su Changan, and even stepped forward to grab Su Changan and sit down: "Sister, sit down, standing will tire you out."
Then he pointed to the carriage parked not far away and said, "You know that my brother just came back. There is money in those boxes, 10,000 taels. It was all earned by your brother with great effort. I know you are short of money, but don't worry, now that your brother is back, my sister won't be short of money. Another 20,000 taels will be delivered in a few days. You and sister-in-law can spend as much as you want, you won't be short of money anymore."
Su Zifeng looked at Su Liheng. You worked hard to get this? Your money?
Su Liheng didn't look at Su Zifeng, but glanced inside Lingqi Pavilion, "Where is His Majesty?"
Su Changan looked at Su Liheng with a smile. This scene was very familiar. This earnest offering was exactly the same as it was at the beginning.
Su Changan replied: "Your sister-in-law is in the imperial study. Shall I take you to see her?"
When Su Liheng heard about the Imperial Study, his heart skipped a beat. That place sounded scary, and it was not a place that could be visited casually. He immediately shook his head and said, "Forget it, forget it. The main reason is that I know that you suffer in the palace, and you see, the food here is not greasy at all, so I quickly sent money in."
At this point, Su Liheng noticed that Ku Yue was holding a lamb chop in her hand, blinking at him, and then looked at Su Zifeng: "Look at my sister, she doesn't even eat meat herself, she only gives it to the people around her, aren't you ashamed, you're still the third uncle!"
Su Zifeng ignored Su Liheng and looked at Su Changan: "If you don't have enough money, just tell your family. My brother and sister-in-law are a little angry. We will give you money, and those people in the Censorate can't find fault with it. Besides, you have wasted the money yourself."
When Su Liheng heard this, he immediately looked at Su Zifeng and said, "Dad, you want my eldest sister to tell the family? How can you say that? Let's not talk about anything else. Just saying these few words will make my eldest sister tired. What should I do?"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone on the side looked at Su Liheng.
I can understand if you say you're sorry or something like that.
Are you tired of saying a few words?
Tired?
Ku Yue chewed the meat in her mouth and looked at Su Liheng. This fat kid was so good at flattering! ?
Su Zifeng rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Su Changan.
Su Changan smiled and poured tea for Su Zifeng, saying, "Third Uncle, we are indeed short of money, but we don't need to ask our family for it. Don't listen to what this kid says. Don't listen to what Xun Kuang says outside. There is a misunderstanding here."
Su Liheng immediately said: "Sister, why am I talking nonsense? This is what my teacher told me, and you are planting crops and vegetables, right?"
Su Changan nodded: "This is true."
Su Liheng then asked, "Then did you spend all the money on gifts for the ladies at the banquet, and on the rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival? Glutinous rice is much more expensive than rice, so it costs a lot of money. Not to mention the sugar and dates you have to buy."
Su Changan nodded: "It's true."
Su Liheng then asked: "Tell me, do you eat these? The meat and other things are given to Channv, Maomaojie and the others."
Su Changan glanced at the greasy-mouthed Ku Yue and nodded.
Su Liheng said immediately, "That's right! Look at you, you have such thin arms and legs, but you are still working. I feel bad when I think about it. It's my dad who is reluctant to spend that little money and refuses to send it in. I have to come back and give it to you. Sit down better and be more comfortable. It's so tiring to move around like this."
Xun Xia, Lu Cai and the others looked at each other in bewilderment as they saw Su Liheng carefully serving the Queen.
Especially when Xia Xia thought about how the fourth young master had been domineering towards the third old master in the Su Mansion before, it was completely different from what it is now.
Su Zifeng looked at his son and said, "That bastard has never treated me or his mother like this!"
Su Liheng picked up the snacks on the table and handed them to Su Changan: "I am here to send money to the palace, just like what my father said, what can those censors say, brother is sending money to sister, why, it's not okay."
Su Changan took the snack, looked at Su Liheng, and smiled at the two carriages: "Yours?"
Su Liheng said calmly: "I worked hard to get it, and I sent it to the palace immediately after I got it."
Su Zifeng took a sip of tea, said nothing, and just endured it.
Su Changan didn't point it out, but looked at Su Liheng: "Not enough."
Su Liheng patted his chest and said, "Another 20,000 taels will be delivered in a few days. Just rest assured that I will do the job."
Su Zifeng looked at Su Liheng and asked, "Can you do things in a way that people can trust?"
Su Liheng immediately looked at his father: "Dad, I brought back nearly hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from the Western Regions this time. You are the one who is reluctant to give even one tael of silver to my elder sister, and you are questioning me?"
Su Zifeng pinched the teacup and endured it all the way from home to the palace. It was not easy to do it at home because Youli's grandfather was there, and it was not easy to do it outside because so many people were watching.
We are in the palace now, so it would be inappropriate to take action. We can only continue to endure it.
Su Changan looked at Su Zifeng, smiled, and then looked at Su Liheng: "Your sister-in-law already knows about the money. She said she would reward you, but I don't know how to reward you. I don't get involved in such matters."
Su Liheng waved his hand: "We are all family members no matter what reward we talk about."
As he spoke, Su Liheng squatted down: "Sister, let me rub your legs for you."
Su Changan looked at Su Zifeng.
Su Zifeng was constantly rubbing his eyebrows.
Su Changan smiled and said, "You want me to give you some advice on how to deal with Youli's grandfather?"
Su Liheng squatted down chubby like a meatball, and now looked up at Su Changan, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice, but shook his head the next moment: "What are you talking about, it's not my fault to be nice to me? But if you can think of any solution, tell me, I can accept it."
But just after he finished speaking, Su Liheng saw Su Changan looking at him. The little fat boy curled his lips and stood up and said, "I really feel sorry for you. After listening to what the teacher said, I immediately rushed home, especially when I thought of him, Su Zifeng! He makes so much money and is still in Beijing, but you have to work in the fields with your skinny arms and legs and an injured body. I was angry, so I scolded him, and then I got his money to give to you. After all, he was reluctant to give it, but I was willing to."
"But I really don't know what to do. I thought about it with Youli on the way, but I couldn't think of a good solution. If I can't think of a solution, what if Youli is taken away? We finally met, and she even came to find me."
Su Zifeng couldn't help but sneer when he heard the previous words. His son took money from his father and gave it to others.
Su Zifeng took a deep breath and continued to endure.
But when the others heard what was said later and looked at Su Liheng's twisted face, they all fell into deep thought.
Ku Yue stood up and said, "Come on, take me with you. It's just a stone rubbing, no big deal. Then you can treat me to a meal."
As he spoke, Ku Yue waved the sheep bone in his hand and started to hit him with it.
Su Changan looked back and said, "Go over and sit down."
Ku Yue looked at Su Changan: "Okay."
Then he ran to the cat and sat down obediently.
Su Changan looked at Su Zifeng again: "You haven't told him yet?"
Su Zifeng nodded: "I'm afraid I won't be able to resist and beat him up."
Su Changan said, "Let's wait until night. After all, we have things to do during the day."
Su Zifeng nodded.
Su Liheng blinked, feeling as if he was being talked about.
Su Changan looked at Su Liheng: "Just go back."
Su Liheng was stunned and didn't understand.
Su Changan continued, "You will understand when you go back, and then you can adapt to the situation. It is not appropriate for me to think of a solution for you. As long as I get involved, it will be oppressive. Do you think that Youli's family agreed to your request because they were afraid of me?"
Su Liheng immediately shook his head like a rattle.
Su Changan continued, "So when you go back, just think of something based on your business mindset. What do you value most in business?"
Su Liheng said without hesitation: "Sincerity!"
Su Changan nodded: "That's all. As for your concern that You Li will be taken away by force, let alone Grandpa and Third Uncle, I promise you here that as long as You Li doesn't want to, no one can take her away. But if You Li wants to leave, I won't stop her."
Su Liheng still had a frown on his face, looking worried.
Su Changan looked at him, glanced around, and made sure that the old lady was not around, then he said, "Your sister-in-law also has an elder here, who is very difficult to serve. She scolds me and beats me at every turn, but I moved her with my sincerity. Compared with her, Shi Tuo is nothing, so you can do it boldly without any worries."
Su Liheng blinked and looked at Su Changan, wanting to ask again.
But he shut up, stood up and said, "Then you eat. The money is here. I have to go back quickly, otherwise it would be inappropriate if her family arrives and I am not here."
As he said that, he glanced at the food on the table, then looked at Su Zifeng: "Look at what my big sister is eating! You are such a disappointment to me as a son!"
As he spoke, Su Liheng reached into his arms, looked at Su Changan and said, “Sister, this is what I want to give you.”
Su Changan watched Su Liheng take out two letters from his arms.
Su Liheng said: "One is from Zhao Xin to you, and the other is from Zhang Mama and the others who asked me to pass it on to Maomao Sister."
When Maomao heard this, he immediately stood up and looked at the letter on the table.
Su Liheng gave the letter to Maomao.
Then he looked at Su Changan and said, "Sister, eat well. Then, I will get more money from your father and give it to you. You don't need to save money for me. Spend it when you can."
After saying that, Su Liheng bowed to Su Changan and said, "Then I'm leaving. I have to go back quickly. As long as Youli is not taken away by force, this matter needs to be handled slowly."
Su Liheng looked at Su Zifeng.
Su Zifeng also stood up and bowed to Su Changan.
Su Changan returned the gift with a brief greeting. After all, he knew that Su Liheng had to go out to get busy, so he didn't try to keep him. After letting Lu Cai and Xun Xia see him off, he glanced at the two carriages and then looked down at the envelope in his hand.
