Chapter 30
A group of eight people finally squeezed out of the garden.
There were so many people coming out of Bian Jing to enjoy the spring that the garden, which was not small to begin with, was squeezed into a vegetable market.
Su Yinyin followed Wei Niangzi and her daughter, and on the other side were Huang Xiucai and others.
As the person most familiar to both parties, he naturally becomes the object of everyone's care.
"Let's go to Yuan Rui's relative's garden. It's quiet and has a place to fly kites."
Everyone nodded. There were really too many people in the garden just now, making everything inconvenient.
That place was not far away; it was the garden that Prince Ning had previously lent to his subordinates.
After that, it was occasionally lent to others for use, but most of the time it was not open to the public.
According to Yuan Rui, "We are relatives, so we can borrow it."
This could even explain why Yuan Rui was wandering around the garden last year.
Yin Yin was not surprised by this.
Considering Yuan Rui's usual demeanor, it's not surprising that he's a relative of Prince Ning?
Of course not surprising.
Prince Ning, who had clearly received the news, almost fell off his stool.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince uses his garden, can that be called borrowing?
Even if it is given to His Highness, it will be his blessing.
As for relatives, he, a distant prince, is indeed a royal relative, but he doesn't dare to claim to be related to the prince.
Therefore, when Su Yinyin and the others arrived, the garden was quickly cleaned up and a group of servants were called over to serve them. Li Ruiyuan's identity was not mentioned, only that they were to serve well.
The garden manager was standing at the gate to greet them. When he heard that they were here to fly kites and ride horses, he immediately said, "It's best to go to the West Garden. The grass there is flat and it's farther from the water, so it's safer. It's also close to the horse ranch."
Since it was a spring outing, the housekeeper took everyone to stroll around the entire garden first, and finally rested and flew kites in the West Garden.
Mr. Huang, Madam Wei and her daughter originally thought it was just a small garden. However, after entering, they realized that other gardens that one could enter by paying money were nothing compared to this one.
No matter the flowers, plants or landscapes, they are all exquisite.
Although it was not the first time for the Su brothers and sisters to come back, they were also overwhelmed by the sight.
The last time Sister Liu and Brother Ding held their wedding here, they only used one fifth of the space.
It would take half a day to walk through the entire garden.
The crowd dispersed in twos and threes.
Madam Wei chatted with Mr. Huang's cousin for a while, holding Su Xian's hand.
Su Yinyin and Yuan Rui talked together.
At the end were Lan Shuang and Huang Xiucai who were left behind on purpose.
As for the extremely excited Sun Dongjun, he followed the housekeeper and wanted to touch everything.
Both Lan Shuang and Huang Xiucai were too embarrassed to speak.
One was thinking that the other person could speak eloquently when seeing a flower, but she could only say "it's so beautiful" for fear of appearing timid.
The other one was still feeling annoyed. He had just lifted up the Su family's sister and called for help. It was really inappropriate. He wondered if the other party would think he was being reckless.
They didn't say a word until the person in front of them walked away.
"Why is this tree crooked?" Lan Shuang said whatever he thought.
Don't be fooled by her quiet appearance. In fact, when she is at home, she is just like Madam Wei, with a straightforward personality and speaks whatever she wants.
"Most potted toys are set up like this, which is called a spectacular cha ya. This should be the top of the head exposed with a fist." Huang Xiucai explained subconsciously.
Lan Shuang paused.
Damn, I didn't understand several words.
Huang Xiucai blurted out, then realized he was showing off, so he explained in detail: "Master Xiaosheng likes to play with pots, that is, bonsai. Many enthusiasts will build a variety of landscapes in bonsai, and the ridges are the shape of staggered branches."
"This pot will grow into a staggered shape with branches, and it will be given different names according to the different shapes of the staggered shapes."
"The topless fist is a popular one lately."
"Oh, just like embroidery patterns? Peony patterns, koi patterns, floral patterns. Is that right?"
Huang Xiucai nodded: "Yes, that's right."
By the time they reached the West Garden, Huang Xiucai and Lan Shuang had visibly relaxed.
When everyone else went to fly kites, Huang Xiucai gave up his kite and said, "Miss Lan Shuang, you can go and play too. Today is a good day, perfect for flying kites."
Yuan Rui only brought six kites, so it would be a bad idea to prepare them for Wei Niangzi and her daughter in advance, otherwise it would be too obvious.
Lan Shuang really wanted to play, and after a moment of hesitation, he asked, "How about we play together?"
Anyway, we are all family here and we all know what we are here for.
Su Yinyin and Yuan Rui had just put up both kites. Su Yinyin wiped the sweat off her head and whispered to Yuan Rui, "I feel like something good is about to happen."
Li Ruiyuan didn't care about these things, he just took a handkerchief and gave it to her: "Wipe the sweat off, do you want some water?"
The honey water is sweet and contains fresh flowers that make you feel less greasy.
The West Garden is full of spring. After playing with kites, we go horseback riding.
Even Madam Wei got on the horse and tried it out. Although she was the elder of everyone present, she deliberately lowered her presence to give the children space to play.
Madam Wei's good mood was self-evident. Although she was walking in front, she was always paying attention to her daughter's movements.
I felt relieved when I saw my daughter talking more and smiling more.
At noon, without any instructions, a table of delicious dishes was prepared in the pavilion, with fresh barbecued meat and freshly harvested fruits served with juice.
Enjoy the scenery while having a spring banquet.
This is what spring feels like.
After playing for a whole morning, Su Yinyin felt extremely happy and ran to grill three skewers of meat.
My brother’s, my own, original.
Su Yinyin’s barbecue skills are excellent, and the meat is neither too dry nor too oily.
Although Yuan Rui was always nervous, she was not worried at all. Her cooking was delicious.
"Try it." Su Yinyin handed over a piece of meat.
She knew that Yuan Rui usually ate very little, so she was very careful when cooking, and every extra bite was good.
Su Xian, who had been dragged by Madam Wei, finally had the time to go see his sister. His pupils trembled as soon as he arrived.
Fortunately, his sister immediately took his skewer and said, "This is yours, without any chili."
Fortunately, my sister remembered what she didn’t like to eat.
Su Xian walked to the other side of his sister, picked up the skewer and took a bite.
tasty.
The meat was grilled to perfection and the flavors were well seasoned.
Yuan Rui had already finished eating, and even felt a little unsatisfied.
Su Yinyin rarely has the opportunity to show off her cooking skills and is very satisfied with herself.
"Boss, where's mine?"
Poor Sun Dongjun said in disbelief: "Mine."
Forget about others!
He is the boss's younger brother!
Only then did Li Ruiyuan look at him straight in the eye.
I looked at him with sidelong eyes in the morning.
This is what the little baby is talking about, someone who is taller and stronger than him.
Li Ruiyuan turned to Su Yinyin and said, "Give me another skewer."
Before Su Yinyin could reply to Sun Dongjun, she asked in surprise, "Really?"
Even Su Xian silently took a step back and decided to grill it for Yuan Rui first, as it was rare for him to want to eat something.
As for Sun Dongjun?
Just let Su Xian drag him away. There are so many delicious foods on the table. Don’t let his sister suffer too much!
Li Ruiyuan joined in and ate more meat, which was unusual for him.
"If you eat more, you will grow taller and gain weight." Su Yinyin kept saying, "I drink milk every day. What if you are not as tall as me when you grow up?"
Su Yinyin and Su Xian both drink a bowl of milk every day, and they are obviously taller than other children of the same age.
Hearing this possibility, Li Ruiyuan took another bite of meat.
eat.
Eat hard.
Just like being afraid of the cold, he can also change it.
In the afternoon, Su Yinyin rode the pony for a while. When the time was almost up, the group reluctantly went home.
Madam Wei and her daughter took another carriage, but judging from Madam Wei's expression, she was obviously very satisfied with Mr. Huang as her future son-in-law.
What does Huang Xiucai think?
The six of them squeezed into a carriage.
A group of people looked at Huang Xiucai in unison.
Huang Xiucai's cousin coughed lightly: "Let's talk about it when we get back."
Although most of them are children, it is still not appropriate to say such things in public.
Huang Xiucai's cousin talked with Madam Wei for a while and could tell that the other party's family was simple.
The master is the deputy envoy of the West City Bingmasi, and he is also the patrol deputy envoy. It is a relatively important department of the Bingmasi, responsible for daily patrols, public security and arresting thefts.
The position was naturally not high in the capital, but it was definitely enough for ordinary people to live on.
Huang Xiucai was extremely embarrassed. After passing the examination to become a scholar, he had met several women, but he had no intention of getting married.
Today, something seems different?
Miss Lan Shuang is a little different.
She speaks her mind and is curious about many things without any hesitation.
Huang Xiucai felt that if he could be a little more natural like her, he might not be so easily embarrassed.
After sending the child to the door of Huinu Dim Sum, Huang Xiucai thanked everyone, especially Yuan Rui, a friend of Su's sister.
If he hadn't borrowed the house temporarily, he wouldn't be so calm today.
Before Huang Xiucai could thank him again, Sun Dongjun had already run back to his shop and excitedly told his parents that he had flown a kite and ridden a horse today!
Yuan Rui looked at the distance between the two stores and his expression became even uglier.
If this continues, will the baby have a better relationship with his neighbors?
He needs to come over more often in the future.
Huang Xiucai scratched his head. He still didn't say anything?
When I returned to the teacher's house, my cousin and the teacher came together to ask questions.
How about the girls introduced by Little Matchmaker?
Su Yinyin was also curious about this question.
The answer came within a few days.
Done!
Whether it was Madam Wei and her daughter, or Mr. Huang, or even the Jinshi and the Deputy Inspector, they all found an opportunity to meet and both sides were very satisfied.
One was a native of Bian Jing, and the other was a potential talent who had just passed the imperial examination.
No matter how things develop in the future, you can live a good life.
It worked again.
Su Yinyin herself was dumbfounded.
Madam Wei praised him for a long time. It was all thanks to Yin Yin that she recognized the person at the door as Mr. Huang, otherwise she would have missed this marriage.
Madam Wei also talked about some things about her mother's family.
After her parents' family was exposed, they knew they were in the wrong and kept going to apologize.
I thought he was sincere, but I didn't expect that the other party actually wanted to come in and persuade me.
What he meant was that Lady Wei's family was only a deputy envoy and a military general, and they couldn't find a good family in the capital. On the contrary, the Wei family had always been well-off in Dingzhou.
Madam Wei should have been angry, but when she thought about the fact that her daughter had been promised to a serious new scholar, she just thought the other party was ridiculous.
After learning that Lan Shuang had a fiancé, who was a scholar, the other party was embarrassed and could only apologize repeatedly.
result?
As a result, he was naturally kicked out of the house.
The deputy inspector had said before that if they were seen, they would definitely be beaten up.
Now that they've come all the way here, it would be inappropriate not to fight.
As a military general, he is best at attacking by surprise.
Of course, these are all jokes. The most important thing is that the marriage was successful.
Su Yinyin touched her face.
Is it really that magical?
Did she really become a matchmaker?
No matter how low-key this matter is, many people still know about it.
Coupled with the cleverness of Little Matchmaker before, everything made people around her believe that Su Yinyin was Little Matchmaker!
Any marriage she arranges will surely be a happy one.
There are also prerequisites.
Let it be, don't force it.
It will only be effective if the connection is made unintentionally.
You can't disturb Little Matchmaker too much, otherwise it won't work!
Of course, if there is a family you are unsure about, you can ask the matchmaker to take a look, maybe it will be suitable?
After reading through them one by one, Su Yinyin felt that everyone seemed to have found a pattern in her?!
As a result, Huinu Dim Sum had a stable source of customers.
They didn't come here for marriage, at most they came here to try their luck.
What if?
What if we accidentally get together as a pair?
Anyway, you can't force it! You can't do it deliberately!
They just came to buy snacks!
Apart from anything else, engaged families prefer to come to Hui Nu Dim Sum to order wedding cakes. Who doesn’t want to share in the joyous atmosphere?
Not to mention the marriage between Mr. Huang and Miss Lan Shuang.
Once the date is set, Huang Xiucai will come to pay the deposit, and he even plans to ask Hui Nu to prepare the snacks for the wedding banquet.
It just so happened that Madam Su had just learned five new kinds of dim sum, so there were more varieties for everyone to choose from.
Uncle Su and the others could only watch helplessly. It was estimated that in a few years, the variety of dim sum at Huinu Dim Sum would be the same as that at the Su’s Dim Sum Shop.
Their business will definitely be worse by then.
There was really no other choice, so Su's Dim Sum Shop gritted its teeth and went back to using its old craftsmanship without saving on raw materials.
Unfortunately, reputation is something that once ruined is ruined and it is very difficult to recover.
Then come and cause trouble for the second wife's family?
They didn't dare anymore.
He even regretted why he bullied Zhou Huinu. If he could have a good relationship with the second family, perhaps this would not have happened.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world.
They have separated a long time ago, so it would be best if they had no contact.
By the time Huang Xiucai's family arrived, it was already late summer when the wedding was scheduled.
Little Matchmaker’s achievements have been further enhanced!
In the West City Military Department, the Deputy Inspector and the Deputy Fire Ban Envoy are close, and their superior, Prince Ning, knows something about it.
But when the deputy inspector came to thank Prince Ning, Prince Ning realized that they were borrowing their own garden?
Borrowing the garden is a trivial matter, but recently the only one who has been using the garden exclusively is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Prince Ning looked at the deputy inspector.
Are you, old man, giving this prince some advice?
Prove that you have a good relationship with His Highness?
If that is true.
This prince will curry favor with you immediately.
They can all make the prince ask for the use of the garden. If we don't curry favor with him now, when will we do so?
After understanding the whole story, Prince Ning looked at Deputy Envoy Su with a complicated look.
OK, it's you.
The lucky little kid in your family actually has a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he can't do that.
But think about it again, the emperor and empress must know the whereabouts of your highness very well, and the palace is relieved because of Deputy Envoy Su's usually kind-hearted character.
Many people say that he takes too much care of his colleagues and old friends, and is even particularly good to his subordinates. He is not greedy or stingy, and is a little too silly.
Who would have thought that this would pay off.
Prince Ning thought about the recent personnel changes in the Military Department and decided that Deputy Envoy Su was indeed a suitable candidate.
Both his ability and character are rare in the Bingmasi.
Except for his lowly background, everything else is good.
Oh, I hope His Majesty and the Queen can see his good intentions.
Deputy Envoy Su, who had just returned from escorting a prisoner to the Bingmasi, was called over by the commander of the Fire Forbidden Division before he could even drink a sip of water.
The commander of the Fire Forbidden Department is fifty-eight years old this year and will retire in two years. This old man is thin and does not usually take care of things.
Anyway, the Fire Prohibition Bureau has capable subordinates doing the work.
The commander smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad. You are indeed a soldier that I value."
Back then, when Deputy Envoy Su was able to come back from the border and serve as a soldier directly in Bian Jing, he was of great use to the commander, after all, they had been on the battlefield together.
"I thought that with your background, your career as a commander would be your end, but I didn't expect that the court is really different now and actually gave you a chance."
Deputy Envoy Su was stunned when he heard this.
He hadn't reacted by the time he got home.
he?
From now on, you don’t have to go to the prison to watch over the prisoners, nor do you have to lead people to put out fires and prevent water leaks.
Just follow the commander.
What are you following?
Learn to do things!
Su Xian and Su Yinyin looked up at the same time.
Madam Su was stunned for a moment, then she reacted.
"Does this mean to promote you?" Madam Su asked in surprise.
Deputy Envoy Su also smiled: "It seems so."
It's not like that at all; it's clearly like that.
Su Yinyin counted on her fingers and said, "Dad got promoted to commander?"
Wow, that’s awesome!
Su Xian had been preparing for the Tongshi exam this year and was very familiar with the official positions: "Commander-in-chief, a military officer of the sixth rank."
Wow, from seven to six!
A definite promotion!
It also took a big leap forward.
Su Xian shook his head: "No, Daddy should be promoted to the seventh this year, so that he can be promoted to the sixth in two years."
All in all, Deputy Envoy Su has been in this position for four years and could indeed be promoted.
I just didn’t expect that this year’s promotion would pave the way for two years later.
It's a pleasant surprise.
During the peaceful years, it was extremely difficult for military generals to make any moves.
Su Yinyin was happy for her father.
Daddy is definitely worth it!
No matter whether it is hot or cold, Dad always does his job best.
Deputy Envoy Su suppressed his excitement, but no one would remain indifferent to a promotion, so he said, "The commander did say that in the September assessment this year, as long as I get a top grade like in previous years, I will definitely be promoted to the seventh rank."
"Not only will the salary increase, but we will also be able to get a lot more rice every year."
Indeed, this is the most practical.
Madam Su laughed and said, "We don't lack anything at home."
She is not rich, but she has enough food and clothing, so she is content.
Su Yinyin nodded.
Days like this are already very good.
She didn't even dare to imagine how happy life would be when her father became the commander.
Su Xian looked at his homework.
One day, he will get his salary back.
Life will be better then.
To celebrate, the Su family went out for a good meal.
Life will definitely get better and better!
While Su Yinyin was eating the food in the restaurant, she was reminded of the idea of cooking.
Unfortunately, she was too young and her mother didn't allow her to touch the stove at all.
I really want to grow up quickly.
Soon I’ll see daddy get promoted.
Oh, and my brother, he will take the examination next year.
These days are not only getting better, but also more and more hopeful.
The family was having dinner when the waiter came over anxiously.
Su Yinyin knew this guy. Last time, it was him who gave their family a discount from the chef.
He was still eloquent last time.
What happened this time?
The guy was a little embarrassed.
He has been troubled by something recently and wants to ask Little Matchmaker for help.
What's up?
"It's a marriage." The waiter whispered, "Someone introduced me to a matchmaker, I don't know if I can go."
The family who were eating looked at Yin Yin.
Their baby is famous.
However, in the past, the woman’s family would always worry that there was something wrong with the other party.
Why is it the man’s house this time?
Not a stereotype.
When it comes to marriage, the girl's family is usually more cautious. After all, they are going to marry into the family, so everything needs to be considered carefully.
After the guy explained, they understood.
"Marry into the wife's family. Someone asked me if I was willing to marry into the wife's family!"
???
Marry into the wife's family?
Although Wanlong’s national style is relatively open.
But for a man, marrying into another's family is indeed difficult to explain.
Su Yinyin raised her eyebrows: "The other party is in very good condition?"
"Yes, he has a house and land, and there is also an orchard at home. He asked me if I wanted to marry into his family's family. I don't have to be a waiter. I can go directly to the suburbs of Beijing to plant fruit trees." The waiter patted his thigh.
He has a stepmother and three younger brothers and sisters.
He had gone out to beg for food when he was five or six years old. Now at the age of twenty-two, he had become a waiter in a restaurant thanks to his cleverness. With the monthly salary, he could just take care of himself, let alone start a family.
As for his home?
As long as there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather, and that is not his home at all.
Unexpectedly, a few days ago, a female guest who came to the restaurant for dinner was attracted by his strong body and asked him if he was willing to marry into her family. She then stated the conditions and even told him her home address.
The woman was a tough, hard-working person who didn't care about the red tape at all.
Considering his strength, he must have worked hard picking the fruits.
To be honest, I was actually tempted.
There's nothing good about being a waiter here. You work so hard but can't save any money. You live in a bunk bed with more than a dozen people, and you are bullied by the customers every day.
It would be better to plant fruit trees. At least you will have enough food and drink and a place to live.
The woman had a rougher skin and was a few years older than him, but he looked just like that, at most younger and stronger.
But before he could figure it out, the guys around him found out and started laughing at him.
"That woman is six years older than you. Do you really want to go?"
"Tsk tsk, it's really different when a rich person takes a fancy to it."
"Which good man is willing to marry into her family? From now on, your son will have to take her last name."
"If your father knew about this, he would definitely break your legs."
The ridicule of the other guys made him back off, and he didn't dare to enter the woman's orchard several times when he passed by it.
Seeing Xiao Hongniang coming to dinner today actually made him feel moved.
It would be better to let Xiao Hongniang help him make the decision.
The Su family was dumbfounded after hearing the gossip.
This kind of thing is rare indeed.
And it’s really hard to say.
Su Yinyin asked: "That means you haven't visited the girl's home yet?"
"No, I'm so sorry."
"Just because I was passing by, I was laughed at for a long time by several people in the same room."
Su Yinyin said directly: "Is it a joke or jealousy."
ah?
Not to mention her friends, even her parents and brother looked at her.
Su Yinyin said, "You just said that the monthly salary here is not high, and you live in a large dormitory, and the food is okay."
"They have orchards, fields, and houses. Needless to say, their conditions are better."
"If that sister takes a fancy to them, do you think they will be moved?"
"So there's nothing to be ashamed of."
"He's just a tall, pretty boy. How can he marry into the family? She's a smart woman. You're so stupid. She must have tricked you."
Seems like, that's the case?!
If you think about it carefully, it does feel a bit sour every time the people in the same room bring it up.
Especially those whose family conditions are as poor as his, they are the ones who make the most jokes.
On the contrary, a few people with good conditions said that they would consider it, but asked him to ask his father.
"They are indeed jealous!"
Su Yinyin did not ask him to agree directly, and finally said: "Go to my sister's house first to make sure it is not a lie, and then consider whether to marry into her family."
"As for your father, it doesn't matter."
Why?
Su Yinyin spread her hands and said, "He won't support you, so why would you want to continue his family line? His family name isn't precious. And you have two younger brothers, but they may not care about you."
Su Yinyin's words immediately dispelled several of the waiter's doubts.
Especially the surname thing.
There is really nothing interesting about his father's surname.
Otherwise, let's go to the orchard tomorrow.
He just looked!
