Chapter 150 He Asks for Something
Today is a day of rest in the military camp.
The snack shop was simply too busy to handle it.
Although the soldiers didn’t buy much with just one or two cents, there were many of them.
Moreover, they usually ate very poorly. The food wages issued by the court and the relief food issued by the government were the same coarse grains, which were not enough and needed to be supplemented with many other things.
Anyone can spare a penny and will basically come to try it.
Su Huiye's rule is strict. Although the soldiers look rough, they still abide by the rules. It's just that the looks of some people make people feel uncomfortable.
Although her shop is small, it can still contribute a little to Liangzhou City.
Fortunately, Bai Yi knew that there would be many people here today, so he sent two officers to guard the place.
So, it went pretty smoothly.
In just half a day, all the food was gone.
Sang Ning gave the last few to two officials.
"We will prepare more when you have a day off next time." Sang Ning told the soldiers who didn't buy anything.
"You keep your word! I saved my salary this month and didn't spend it. I came here just to eat this!" A soldier shouted in frustration.
"Of course, of course!" Sang Ning promised, and asked, "By the way, where is your General Su? I need to talk to him about something."
"Do you still know our general?"
The officer, chewing on a skewer, informed him, "You're late. We've told you several times before, this is Miss Sang who found the water source. Of course, she's someone your general knows."
The military camp also sent many people to find water.
The soldier suddenly realized.
No wonder the county magistrate sent people to a snack shop.
It turned out to be her.
The people around the soldier winked and laughed.
"Where can the general go on his day off? Of course..."
"Don't talk nonsense! Be careful, the general will cut you!"
I dare not say anything. If I make Miss Xiaofang cry, I will be beaten with a military stick!
"Madam Sang, the general should be near Li's Tofu Shop now!"
Li Ji Tofu Shop.
Sonning knew.
But that store has closed down long ago.
"Okay, thank you. I'll go find him now."
Sang Ning gave some instructions to Huo Jingya and the others and went to Li Ji Tofu Shop.
When I walked over, I saw a man with a broad chest and a thick back squatting in front of a closed shop counting ants.
She looked several times before she recognized that it was Su Huiye.
The beard is gone, the face is a little paler, and he looks ten years younger in an instant!
"Oh my, oh my, did General Su take some magic medicine that can make him look younger? He has become so handsome!"
Su Huiye looked up, his eyes filled with astonishment.
"Really? That obvious?"
"It's really special, very obvious! I saw him from a distance and wondered where such a handsome and tall man came from in Liangzhou. It took me a long time to recognize him when I got closer. It was General Su.
Oh, you should have shaved off your beard long ago, it's covering up your beautiful face."
Su Huiye's old face turned red.
Is this a bit exaggerated?
He touched his chin, then his face.
"Are you talking about me?"
"General! Be more confident! I'm talking to you!"
It’s okay to say something against your will occasionally, or tell a white lie, and she has no psychological burden at all.
If you want to listen, she can continue talking!
only……
Why do you feel back discomfort?
It was as if someone was watching her.
Sang Ning looked back and saw that there were many people on the street today, with soldiers walking in groups of three or four.
Probably to see Su Huiye and her at the same time.
Looking at Sang Ning's sincere and incredible eyes, Su Huiye straightened his chest and believed it!
The brown face was glazed with confidence.
"Mrs. Sang's method is the best. I've been smearing yellow mud all over my body during training lately. Not only does it protect me from getting sunburned, but it's actually made me a lot whiter."
"Really? Then you were born with fair skin, that's why you can grow so fast. If you were born with dark skin, you wouldn't get any whiter even if you grow dark skin your whole life."
"Hahahahaha! Then I really need to take care of it for a few more days!"
Su Huiye's face fell as he was smiling.
What’s the use of knowing it’s white? Xiaofang is leaving.
"What's wrong, General Su?"
"Hey! Xiaofang's father is selling the store. He can't continue the business anymore, so he has to go live with his relatives."
Sang Ning understood immediately! Without soybeans, how could one make tofu? There were only two tofu shops in the city, and they used old, shriveled soybeans, which didn't taste good at all.
But she has soybeans, top-quality soybeans!
The bean dregs left after making tofu can be made into bean dregs cakes and sold for money!
"Madam Sang, I have to go back to the military camp without telling you." Su Huiye stood up and looked at Li Ji Tofu Shop with disappointment again.
Although he was the city defense commander, he had no food and no money. He had to worry about the soldiers' rations all day long, so he didn't have the face to ask them to stay.
Except for the families accompanying the army and those who cannot leave, no one with any way out is willing to stay here.
"No, General Su, you can't let them go. There's chaos and chaos outside, with bandits rampant. Who knows what might happen to them. Even if they get to their relatives safely, can you guarantee that those relatives are good people?
These days, even biological fathers can sell their daughters. If Miss Xiaofang is sold by a relative...it will be too late for you to regret it then!"
Su Huiye was startled, his eyes widening: "What should I do?"
"General Su, you know I opened a shop? I just happen to need tofu..." Sang Ning made up the story with ease.
She leaned forward and whispered, "We in the Huo family have quite a few in-laws, so it wouldn't be difficult to have people send us beans regularly. However, we are criminals after all, and it would be too conspicuous to openly ask for special treatment. If we use General Su's name, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
"Are you serious?"
"It couldn't be more true..."
Soon, Sang Ning persuaded Su Huiye, and the two of them entered the Li family together.
At the corner of an alley, an uncle and a nephew, one big and one small, with similar eye shapes and equally handsome, were silent for a while.
"Fourth Uncle, General Su is only slightly better than Black Charcoal. How did Fourth Aunt praise him so highly?"
"I still need help from others."
Although, I still feel very unhappy!
It's fine if she just manages to balance things at home, but does she need to be praised for working so hard in front of outsiders?
"But Fourth Aunt's expression is so sincere!"
Who says it’s not!
No wonder Su Huiye took it seriously without any self-awareness.
Full of resentment.
But he still said, "Your fourth aunt said that sincerity is the ultimate skill, learn from her."
"Uncle, I understand."
The uncle and nephew slowly walked into the alley and continued their conversation.
"Fourth Uncle, will you accept me if the moon is not full?"
"meeting."
"Why?"
"You can tell what he means by his name, because he is not perfect, he also has something to ask for."
All he wanted was to return to the capital and let the Yue family regain its former glory.
But now, he is banned from entering Beijing forever.
That was three years ago, during the golden autumn of the imperial examination.
In front of the Imperial Examination Hall, a student was found guilty of cheating and was expelled from the examination room. He cried out for justice but was severely beaten.
Huo Changan and his friend were rushing to the city gate to pick up their second brother, but they hurriedly stopped the official. When they came back, the man had disappeared.
He recognized it the first time he saw a moon that was not full.
He has something to ask for.
He then has a ladder to win over people's hearts.
