Chapter 431: A Happy Magpie Arrives
"Wear this one." Xuanyuan Jin said, pointing to a dark red dress.
Wang Zhong immediately stepped forward, picked up the clothes, and said, "Young Master really has good taste. Today is the Su family's housewarming celebration, and Tang Bao will definitely wear festive clothes, and she will definitely wear that pink suit..."
This way, it just matches the young master's dark red suit.
Xuanyuan Jin: "...You're talking too much!"
Sometimes it is not a good thing to have a servant who is too smart.
Not even the slightest bit of thought can be hidden.
Wang Zhong had been with Xuanyuan Jin for such a long time that he naturally would not ignore the unnatural look on his young master's face.
Wang Zhong laughed secretly in his heart. It was at times like this that the young master behaved like an awkward child.
As expected, Little Tangbao was wearing that pink dress.
Just as Wang Zhong guessed, today is the Su family's housewarming celebration, so of course Old Mrs. Su wants to dress her little girl festively.
However, the other people in the Su family did not recognize the material of ice silk, but Old Madam Su did.
So much so that in the morning, while Old Mrs. Su was dressing her little girl, she was filled with mixed feelings.
Young Master Yang is so good to his little girl that it’s hard to describe how good he is.
How precious is this ice silk material?
However, Young Master Yang actually made several sets of dresses for his little girl and sent them to her in one summer.
Children grow up quickly, and these dresses will not be suitable for them next year.
Even the families of officials would not be willing to waste money like this...
It’s not that you can’t afford it, but that you can’t buy it.
Old Mrs. Su thought of the jade pendant that Xiao Tangbao had brought back and sighed silently.
Now that the little girl and Young Master Yang are so close, I wonder what will happen in the future?
**
The Su family naturally chose a good time to move.
Although you are only moving from the front yard to the back yard, you still have to move pots, pans, clothes boxes, etc. according to the time.
There weren't many things in other people's houses.
The only difference is that there are too many boxes and cages in Xiaotangbao's room.
The items inside included rewards from the emperor when he conferred the title of village chief upon him, as well as gifts from Xuanyuan Jin, Madam Xia and others.
In short, the large wooden boxes alone took up half of the wall.
"By the time Fuya reaches marriageable age, I wonder how much dowry she'll be able to save?" someone lamented, "I wonder which son will be lucky enough to marry Fuya in the future?"
These words expressed the thoughts of everyone present.
Any family that has a son hopes that the son is their own.
Although, they themselves know that there is little hope.
When Xuanyuan Jin arrived at the Su family, he saw the clothes on Xiao Tangbao and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
"Brother!" Little Tangbao ran over and shouted.
"Yeah." Xuanyuan Jin naturally took Xiao Tangbao's hand.
Then, everyone noticed that a little boy wearing a dark red brocade robe, with red lips and white teeth, and a delicate face, was holding the hand of a chubby little girl wearing a pink dress, with delicate eyebrows and eyes...
When two people walk together, they look like two little fairies walking out of a New Year picture.
Those who had some hopeless thoughts when they saw the wooden box in Xiaotangbao's house suddenly had their hopes shattered.
That naughty boy in my family who jumps around all day long like a monkey would probably be crushed into pieces if he stood in front of others.
"Brother, let me tell you something." Little Tangbao looked up at Xuanyuan Jin and whispered, "There will be a big happy event in our family today."
Xuanyuan Jin bent down slightly to accommodate Xiao Tangbao's height and asked, "How did you know?"
But I was thinking of Su Lao San.
Could it be that... the little girl has the ability to predict the future?
Little Tangbao blinked his big, bright eyes, curved the corners of his lips, and pointed his finger at the sky.
"Here, look."
Xuanyuan Jin looked up.
“Chirp…”
A large group of magpies, chirping, flew over and landed on a big tree in the Su family's yard.
"Oh my! Why are there such a large group of magpies?" someone shouted in surprise.
"Brother Su, your family's moving day is auspicious! Look, even the magpies have come to announce the good news..."
"That's right! This is the first time in my life that I've seen so many magpies gathered together..."
"This is a real blessing!"
"Exactly, exactly..."
…
For a moment, people stood in the yard, looking at the magpie on the tree, all with amazement on their faces.
When Old Man Su saw this, his face flushed and he was so happy that his heart was filled with joy.
——This is a very good omen!
As Shopkeeper Li and his wife entered the yard, they saw everyone craning their necks to look at the magpie.
Shopkeeper Li, “…”
My heart couldn't help but move, and a hint of doubt flashed across my eyes.
immediately--
"Oh! Congratulations, my dear relatives!" Shopkeeper Li smiled brightly and said loudly, "Who knows, the Su family will have many happy events in the future..."
Shopkeeper Li said this and presented the four-colored gifts he had brought with him, as well as a big red envelope.
This move by Manager Li can be regarded as a generous gift.
However, the people behind Shopkeeper Li offered even more generous rewards.
Who is it?
——The patriarch of the Li family!
"Master Su, congratulations." Patriarch Li smiled ingratiatingly. "It's just a small gift. I hope Master Su won't mind."
After saying this, he called to his son behind him and quickly presented the eight-colored gift.
And, a bigger red seal.
The smile on Old Man Su's face disappeared and his expression became gloomy.
Although it is said that one should not hit the person who gives a gift, it depends on who the other person is.
Patriarch Li allowed some of the Li family's descendants to bully Su Chengyao in the private school.
Not only that, he has been coveting Manager Li's property for years and allowing Li's family members with ulterior motives to squeeze out Su Lao Si.
Old Man Su now knows all these things.
Naturally, he was not in a good mood towards Patriarch Li.
"Patriarch Li is wrong." Old Man Su said mercilessly: "I am very disgusted, so Patriarch Li should take these things with you and go back quickly. I will not agree to what you said!"
Patriarch Li, "..."
The smile on his face froze immediately.
He never expected that on a day like today, Old Man Su would be so cruel and ruthless.
The son of the Li clan leader said angrily, "Su, don't be so shameless. My father..."
"Shut up!" Patriarch Li shouted harshly.
My son is young and hot-headed, and doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. He has experienced this deeply in recent days.
Not only would Li's private school be closed, but his position as the clan leader would also be in jeopardy.
There was no other way. Some members of the Li clan wanted to send their descendants to Fude Academy, but the Su family knew that they were from the Li clan and refused to accept them.
There are also several scholars that the clan has cultivated with great difficulty, and they have always wanted to be registered under the name of the top scholar to study.
Not to mention that your knowledge will be greatly improved, your status will also be greatly improved.
If I could get a letter of recommendation from the number one scholar, I would be more confident when I take part in the autumn examination in the future.
However, all of this could not proceed because it offended the Su family.
The top scholar ignored them completely.
They couldn't see anyone either.
Now, all the members of the Li clan are staring at him, the clan leader, and asking him to find a solution.
If he can't resolve this issue, his position as patriarch will be over.
Patriarch Li felt both aggrieved and regretful!
I regret it so much that my intestines are turning green!
"Master Su, my son's words are rude. Please don't argue with him."
Patriarch Li smiled and looked at Shopkeeper Li.
Shopkeeper Li thought of his son-in-law's dream, and with a sudden decision, he pulled Old Man Su aside and whispered, "My dear, here's the thing. Rumor has it that the Third Master, who brought back many novelties from his voyage, has recently come to Fengqi County..."
Little did they know that the Third Master mentioned by Shopkeeper Li had already entered Daliushu Village in a carriage.
