Chapter 113: Shu Tong's Wedding
Even though Lu Dazhu was a person who only cared about eating and not doing his business, he knew the general idea. He heard that someone in the Bo's Mansion had his leg broken by the princess's son, and then the Bo's Mansion came to take fewer skewers, and their family's business became worse day by day.
Hearing Shu Tong say this, everyone in Lu was shocked. The capital was full of powerful people and one could offend someone if one was not careful. The result would be either packing up and leaving or being mutilated. Everyone subconsciously stepped back.
Shu Tong did not spare them and said directly, "Don't have any ideas about this stall. It is my young mistress's dowry. From now on, it will be managed by Madam Lu. If you dare to have any ideas, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
Lu Da had always thought that Lu Er was lying to them, but he didn't expect that it was true. It was not a contract signed like before, but it was actually from the Su family. The whole family left in shame.
Everyone in Lu Zhitian's family breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over to thank Shu Tong. They still remembered the rule that they couldn't meet before marriage. So rules and regulations are not worth mentioning in the face of survival.
As the wedding day was getting closer, Shu Tong came to visit every now and then. Unexpectedly, he really saw Mr. Lu's cunning face.
"If they do anything treacherous and greedy again, just come find me."
Although Lu Zhitian was timid, he had a clear mind and asked worriedly, "Will it make it difficult for you to work in the master's house?"
It was just a small barbecue stall. Besides, Shu Tong had long been fed up with Lu Da's expression. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my little master understands!" She would definitely support his approach.
"That's good... That's good..."
The diners who were watching saw that Lu Ji BBQ stall had a backstage, and they came over with a smile, "Shopkeeper, give me ten skewers..."
"Shopkeeper, I want five skewers of gluten and mushrooms..."
…
Popularity gathered and business returned to normal.
The eldest brother's family, who were hiding at the entrance of the alley, were very envious. "How about we eat skewers and find a place to do barbecue at the same time?"
Lu Da's wife agreed completely. "It's just a crowded place at the entrance of the alley. Let's go. Our land is not bad either. I don't believe that we can't make money."
The whole family left in a hurry, looking at the owner with envy.
Shu Tong talked to the Lu family about some things to note about the wedding, and also discussed when the rented sedan chair for the wedding would arrive on that day. These were all trivial and small matters. Fortunately, as the manager of the Su family, he was good at these things, and no matter what he said or did, he was organized.
Lu Zhitian and his wife just nodded and did as they were told.
Lu Dani was listening to this and felt very happy. It was so nice to marry a capable man.
Shu Tong was admired by Lu Er's family, who saw that he was very satisfied and had a good life.
The day before Shutong's wedding, Su's breakfast stall and barbecue stall began to close for a total of three days. They all went to the Su family to help with the wedding, and everyone was busy from dawn to dusk. As long as there were children around them, the Su family would give them candy. The whole alley was extremely lively because of the Su family's wedding.
The day before the wedding, three tables were set up in the courtyard of the Su family. On the day of the wedding, six tables were set up in the afternoon and evening. The Su family did not have many relatives, and those who came were the housekeepers and maids from the surrounding neighbors, and everyone sat together to have fun.
Unexpectedly, the young prince Zhao Lan and Fan Yanjia's long-time servants also sent gifts, and even the shopkeepers of Mrs. Fan's Hongtai Restaurant and Daxiangguo Shop sent gifts. The nervous book colleagues didn't know what to do.
"Sir, Second Madam, do you want... do you want to accept it?" Shu Tongxin thought. This was a gift given entirely for the sake of Sir and Second Madam's face, so he didn't dare to accept it casually.
Most of the gifts these two families gave were for their daughter's delicacies. Su Yanli did not take the credit for this, and asked his daughter with a smile, "What do you think?"
"Since they've been sent, just accept them!" Just treat it as a normal favor. Not only that, Su Ruojin also said, "These gifts are for Uncle Shutong, uncle, just accept them."
After hearing this, Shu Tong waved his hands and said, "No, no..."
"Take it." Su Ruojin told Shu Tongshu not to worry, "They must have given it within your means."
Shu Tong understood that if these people had any happy events in the future, they would send a gift in his name. If he could return the favor, Shu Tong dared to accept it. He accepted the gifts from each family with a grin.
Shutong's wedding was much more lively than Su Silang's first birthday. Mrs. Xue, the neighbor next door, was puzzled with her bulging belly, "Is the servant going to climb over the master's head?"
Master Xue smiled and said, "Don't say that Dr. Su is quite good at winning people's hearts."
Mrs. Xue disagreed and smiled disdainfully at her neighbors, saying that she had never seen servants' affairs being more important than those of their masters.
Mrs. Ding sighed in the room, "If it weren't for me, our little Silang's first birthday celebration would have been celebrated in such a grand manner, but in the end..." She wiped her tears repeatedly.
Cheng Yingzhen quickly advised him, "Mom, this is not just for you. This is how our Ajin and Sanlang celebrated their first birthdays."
Mrs. Ding was puzzled, thinking her daughter must have lied to her: "It's impossible. My son-in-law is a teacher in the Imperial College, and his students are all from wealthy families. How can the child's first birthday party be so shabby?"
Now it was Cheng Yingzhen's turn to sigh, "Mother, you are alone in the capital, and it's good enough for you to be favored by Lord Fan and gain a foothold in the Imperial College. Before A Jin opened the breakfast stall, we lived in poverty and had to borrow money from Lord Fan every year. What do you think we should do for the first birthday? If you don't have money, people will know that you want to make money. Your son-in-law is arrogant and doesn't want to be criticized, so you can prepare a table of food for the child to celebrate the first birthday."
It turns out that my daughter had such a hard life in the past.
"Then why is the marriage for a servant so respectable?"
Cheng Yingzhen smiled, "Shutong is about the same age as you, and you already have four children, but he hasn't even gotten married yet. You can't bear the hardship he's gone through, so you treat him like a brother and give him a big wedding."
Ding was filled with deep emotion: "It would be great if I could meet a master like you!"
On the wedding night, Lu Dani was also shocked when she saw the gift list that Shu Tong brought over, "Madam, don't you want us to accept all of them?"
Shu Tong was dressed in red today, and her face was beaming with joy and pride. "Yes, my Lord, Madam, and the Second Lady all let me keep it. Ani, your husband is lucky to have met a good master. We must serve your Lordship and his family well in the future."
Lu Dani nodded shyly, "I will listen to my husband."
Shu Tong, who got married at the age of 28, looked at his wife with a drunken look, while Lu Dani was embarrassed and did not dare to look at the groom.
Shu Tong sat down next to the bride, "Madam..."
The red candles are flickering, and the room is full of joy.
Outside the corridor, Mother Lu and a group of people finished packing up and left. They no longer live here and have treated the shop as their home.
Ershi was shocked by the grand wedding of the secretary, "It would be great if my wedding could be as grand as this."
Mother Dong smiled and said, "Then work hard and make arrangements for marrying a wife when you return home."
Ershi scratched his head and chuckled, "I don't want to go back to the mountains in my lifetime." Life is too hard and there is no money. It's so good to be in Beijing. Although it's tiring, it feels so good to see money coming in every day.
"Then find a wife in the capital."
"I...that's what I thought."
