Mrs. Su was very happy when she saw the fresh fruits on the table.
She blamed her subordinates for being ignorant and asking why they didn't invite the third son of the Xiao family in. At least they should have some tea before leaving. Otherwise, it would mean that they did not know how to entertain guests.
In fact, as long as you accept a person in your heart, you will slowly find that you like everything about her, and you will also like her family a lot more.
She found that she had been too prejudiced against them before. In fact, the whole family were good people. They earned money with their own hands and lived a better life. The most important thing was that everyone in their family had the spirit of climbing up.
When Su Yanqing learned that his mother had actually sent a gift to the Xiao family for the opening of the business, he was extremely happy.
He felt that he was getting closer and closer to his dream of marrying Lanlan.
When he returned home that night, Mrs. Su told him to find a time to invite Lanlan and other members of the Xiao family to the Su Mansion for a small gathering, and she would give them a warm welcome.
But Su Yanqing took into consideration that now is the busiest time for the Xiao family and everyone has a lot of things to do. If the two families were to meet, it would not be appropriate.
At least after the Xiao family's business stabilizes, they can withdraw at any time and discuss the meeting between the two families.
He explained the reason to his mother in detail, and Mrs. Su also understood.
Su Yanqing discovered that his mother had become more reasonable since Nanny Liu passed away.
It turned out that he was influenced by someone. A single bad apple almost spoiled the whole barrel. Fortunately, his grandfather was smart. Thanks to him, he was able to resolve this dilemma so easily like now, and everyone is happy.
…
Jiang Sui went to the pawnbroker again, found Nanny Qian, and bought two servants. This time they were living contracts for three years.
The two maids were almost fifty years old, and because of their age, their prices were relatively cheap.
It only cost seventeen taels of silver per person for three years. The people chosen were all honest and hardworking, and they could keep themselves clean and tidy. Jiang Sui brought them to the workshop and cleared out a room for them to live in.
After this workshop expires, if conditions permit, she will directly buy a bigger workshop.
The two maids will be responsible for making dumplings and pies in the future, sharing some of the pressure for the Xiao family.
This will make things much easier in the future.
The reason for choosing such an old person is that he/she will not affect the lives of the other two couples in the future.
…
The tasks at hand were finally almost finished, and Jiang Sui could start writing a reply letter to Xia Wanning.
She planned to write the scene of havoc in heaven to Xia Wanning, but she had to write it behind her back. She always remembered that she was an illiterate country girl, so she couldn't reveal it.
On this day, Xiao Hechuan was not at home. Only his second sister-in-law Zhou was at home. Jiang Sui secretly took a pen and paper and began to write a script, writing down the scene of the havoc in heaven from her memory.
It tells the story of how Sun Wukong was born, and how he went through numerous hardships to learn skills from a master. In short, this is a separate unit in the entire Journey to the West. It is very dramatic and conflicting, and very attractive. I believe that there is no such script in the whole of Daqing. If Xia Wanning can really stage it, I don't know how popular it will be.
As for her, she just made some money to fill her own pocket.
The other members of the Xiao family were all busy in the store and were not at home at this time. The second sister-in-law would not come to see her unless there was something important. She usually strolled around in the yard by herself. So when Jiang Sui was writing, she didn't even consider that Xiao Hechuan might suddenly come back at this time.
She had already written several pages, and she was so engrossed in writing that she was laughing as she wrote.
Xiao Hechuan went to the store at noon, but he didn't find Jiang Sui. Normally, she would be helping in the store, because she really cared about the family business, so he felt a little strange.
Suddenly he remembered that Xia Wan Ning had written her a mysterious letter some time ago, so he guessed that this little girl must be doing something that interested him behind his back.
Sure enough, when he returned home, the door of his room was closed. He knew at once that she must be replying to someone's letter.
At this time, Zhou happened to come out and saw Xiao Hechuan, so she greeted him:
"Hey? Hei Chuan, why are you back at this time today?"
When Jiang Sui in the room heard this, she immediately panicked and her pen fell to the ground. She hurriedly collected the written letter paper and stuffed it under the pillow. When she turned around, she accidentally kicked the stool. She hurriedly picked up new paper and spread it on the table, picked up the pen, and pretended that she was practicing calligraphy.
When Xiao Hechuan heard the noise in the room, he couldn't help but smile. The panicked look of a little girl automatically appeared in his mind.
"It's okay, sister-in-law. I'll come back to get something and leave."
Zhou was holding a plate of bayberries in her hand. She nodded, smiled, and went back to her room to rest.
However, she was not idle every day. At least when the Xiao family came back every night, she would prepare hot meals and boil hot water for everyone.
When Xiao Hechuan pushed open the door, Jiang Sui was sitting on a chair practicing calligraphy. She turned around and looked at Xiao Hechuan with a bright smile. She didn't seem surprised at all that he would suddenly come back at this time. After all, she was already prepared.
"You're back? I'm practicing calligraphy. Come and take a look at my writing. How's it going?"
Jiang Sui wrote Xiao Hechuan's name.
Xiao Hechuan walked to her side and looked at his own name written on it. It was written neatly, but from the details, it could be seen that the person who wrote it had some foundation.
"My wife's handwriting is getting better and better. It deserves praise!" He said, reaching out to touch her cheek, and couldn't help laughing out loud, his eyes full of helpless doting.
Just now, the brush fell to the ground and the pen holder was stained with ink. When she picked it up, it accidentally got on her hands. Just now, in a panic, she smeared some on her face without realizing it.
"However, when practicing calligraphy, why do you get ink all over the place? Look, it has become a tabby cat."
He held her shoulders and asked her to look back. There was a bronze mirror on the small table behind her. At a glance, one could see that the left side of the woman's face was stained with a large stain of ink.
Jiang Sui suddenly felt like he was socially dead and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
This is nothing. The key is that in the mirror, the man standing next to her is very close to her. He lowered his eyes and looked at her gently. His warm breath sprayed on her face, making her feel itchy.
"It must have been touched by my hand. I'll go wash it now!"
She wiped her face with her hands, then ran out of the room in a panic to get some water to wash her face.
This gap gave Xiao Hechuan an opportunity.
He naturally walked to the bed, lifted the pillow, and underneath was the secret that Jiang Sui was hiding.
