Chapter 119: Madam Su Er is about to be beaten again (4000 words)
The old woman looked miserable and pitiful: "Ah Gui, this is all for your own good, you have to listen to me."
Xianggui turned away and said to Feng Wangtian, "I can't explain it to her clearly. Uncle, tell her that I am neither a member of the Chen family nor a member of the Feng family. I am a lifelong servant of the Su family. If the Chen family still insists on making trouble, I will ask the master to send them to the government."
When Feng Acao heard about the government, his legs trembled with fear, and he went straight to his brother, "Ah Tian, how did my own daughter get involved with the government?"
In her opinion, going to the government meant being beaten and imprisoned, which was very frightening.
Feng Wangtian sighed heavily, "Sister, this is not the mountains, this is the capital. Ah Gui sold herself to the Su family voluntarily, and you took the money from the Su family. If you insist on dragging Ah Gui back home, you will end up in the government."
Ershi felt sorry for his cousin and said, "Aunt, just look at your cousin and don't think about anything else, unless you want the whole Chen family to go to jail."
"What...are you all going in?" Ershi's words frightened Feng Acao so much that he trembled in his speech.
Feng Wangtian shook her head and saw Mother Dong and Hua Ping standing at the door of the kitchen. She quickly turned around and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I've never been out of the mountains in my life. I don't know anything. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Feng Acao looked over as her brother said, and saw a woman of about her age wearing a silver hairpin and neatly dressed. She looked at her and smiled, "Sister Feng, everyone here is a guest. The weather is cold, so hurry up and eat something hot to warm yourself up."
After saying this, Mother Dong turned around and went to the kitchen to bring the soup.
Feng Acao didn't move. Her eyes fell on the young man leaning against the door frame. He was wearing a brand new brown cross-collared robe. He was thin but strong. He had slightly furrowed brows and looked at her unkindly, as if he was going to get angry and hit her. She was so scared that she took a step back unconsciously.
Just a cowardly and ignorant old woman, Hua Ping snorted coldly, turned around and went back to his own hut.
Xianggui was originally inferior and cowardly, and now her unbearable family affairs were exposed to the public. At this moment, she seemed to have given up. She was depressed and said nothing. She took the soup plate from Dong's mother and called to her mother, "Come and eat. When your uncle returns, you can go with him."
Feng Acao pointed at Hua Ping's departing figure and asked, "He... is he your boss?" The young man's clothes looked very expensive, probably only the boss could afford it.
Everyone in the room: ...Hua Ping is more energetic and good-looking than the Feng brothers, but he is far inferior to the master of the Dong family.
Dashi quickly interrupted Dagu's nonsense and said, "Hua Xiaodi is under Su Ji's care. If there are hooligans, he can beat several of them with one hand. No one dares to mess with him."
Really...really good at hitting people! Feng Acao's legs went weak again when she heard this, and she almost fell down. It was Feng Wangtian who held her up. He shook his head secretly, and she dared to come to the capital to ask for someone like this. Alas!
Putting aside the thought of persuading his daughter to go home and get married, Feng Acao finally turned his attention to the present. Seeing the sumptuous three meals and one soup on the table, he exclaimed in shock, "Agui, do you eat so well every day?"
No wonder she doesn’t want to go back. If it were her, she would also want to stay.
Everyone: ...
The Feng family's father, son, daughter-in-law and others laughed at their ignorant aunt, but they also admitted in their hearts that they liked the capital city, not only for the money they could make, but also for the good meals their employers provided. Having been in the capital city for so long, they had more or less interacted with the people around them, and no one else fed their hired servants as well as the Su family did.
They feel lucky and blessed, and they are very motivated to do things.
Feng Acao was shocked and frightened in the shop that day, but the Su family didn't know about it.
In the evening, when Su Yanli got off work and the family was eating at the table, Su Ruojin mentioned to his father, "Dad, Father Feng sent his son and daughter-in-law to work here, and our family's business is back to normal."
It’s almost the 20th day of the first lunar month, it’s time to get back to normal.
He nodded. "That's good."
Su Ruojin smiled and said, "Agui's mother and old man Feng are here. My mother and I have discussed that we will prepare a table at home tomorrow. It will not only be a start-of-work meal, but also a treat for old man Feng and Agui's mother. It will be regarded as the proper host."
Su Yanli continued to nod, "Well, Ah Jin, just do whatever you want."
Hmm? Su Ruojin felt that something was wrong with his father.
The little eyeball rolled, "Dad, where was your Imperial College's opening dinner yesterday? Fengle Building?"
"Not everyone can afford to go to Fengle Building. The prison doesn't have that much money."
"That is..."
"Why are you asking so many questions, kid?"
Hey, why does this clumsy rhetorical question give off the flavor of a scumbag?
Su Ruojin suppressed her raised eyebrows and looked as if she would eat first and let you go.
Su Yanli: …My wife didn’t care, but my daughter did. He shook his head helplessly, turned sideways, and picked up a chicken leg for his wife, “Eat more.”
"Sir, ignore that girl Ajin, and eat too."
Su Ruojin: ... I ... who am I doing this for? Don't you know what your man looks like? He is a refined, handsome, mature man who women throw themselves at whenever he goes out!
Glancing at her parents who were showing off their love, Su Ruojin lowered her head and ate angrily.
After dinner, Su Ruojin went to the study room and waited until the father and son of the Su family finished their homework. She asked her eldest brother to wash up, crossed her arms, stood in front of his father, and snorted: "Did you go to the teaching office to listen to music and eat?"
"The Imperial College has a dinner party every year, sometimes in this restaurant, sometimes in that winery, and you, a little one..." Su Yanli stopped talking when he heard his daughter's groan.
"Every year you always come back to tell me where we went to eat, but you didn't tell me yesterday and I didn't pay attention. But today when I mentioned it, you deliberately covered it up. Dr. Su, this is a sign of guilt!"
Even Daddy didn't call her anymore. Su Yan smiled politely and reached out to give his daughter a slap. Su Ruojin would never let her father hit her, so she quickly jumped back to avoid him, still revealing the truth, "Is it because those beauties in the teaching office couldn't resist your mature charm and pounced on you?"
Su Yanli: ...What should I do if there is a villain at home?
Seeing her father agreed.
"Hehe, I knew it." Su Ruojin looked proud that she had guessed it right.
Su Yanli stood up.
Su Ruojin was just about to ask what kind of beauty couldn't resist his mature charm when she saw her father pick up the ruler on the table and swing it at her.
"Help!" Su Ruojin rushed to her mother's room, "Madam Su, your man wants to beat me, do you care..."
Mrs. Ding, who was changing Xiao Silang's diaper, was stunned by her granddaughter's words and actions. She stood beside the crib as if struck by lightning, watching her son-in-law walk into the room slowly with a ruler in his hand, staring at her granddaughter who was hiding beside her daughter with a look on her face that was neither smiling nor laughing.
she:……
Cheng Yingzhen didn't ask Su Yanli, but turned to ask her daughter, "Your father is so good-tempered and he can even use a ruler. You must have done something wrong."
These two...
Su Ruojin felt like she was redundant. She burst into tears and threw herself into Ding's arms. "Mom Ji, they all bullied me. I can't stay in this family anymore..."
As he spoke, tears really began to flow.
So sad.
Mrs. Ding was bewildered by her granddaughter's crying, "Sir... this is..."
Su Yanli had a headache: "Ajin, come here..." His tone was unusually stern.
Su Ruojin was stunned, stopped crying, looked over, tears still hanging on her eyelashes.
Dr. Su, who had just made up his mind to teach his daughter a lesson, softened his heart and softened his tone, "Go to bed quickly."
"Then..." Su Ruojin looked at the ruler in his father's hand. Does it mean that he won't be beaten anymore?
"I will tell your mother about my affairs. Don't be suspicious all the time."
What is this suspicious? Su Ruojin was dissatisfied. "If I don't mention it, will you tell Madam Su?"
What happened? He didn't even call her "mother". Cheng Yingzhen was confused. "Sir, what happened?"
Seeing his daughter's gossipy look, Su Yanli stroked his forehead and said, "Last night, the Imperial College held a dinner party for its opening ceremony. I went to the Jiaosifang to listen to music. A singing girl sang a song especially for me. My colleagues at the Imperial College teased me, but when I came back, your daughter..."
"I'm not joking, I'm just asking..." Seeing that her father was about to change his face again, Su Ruojin smiled as she walked away, "Don't be dazzled by beauty. If you are, I will take your wife and remarry and call someone else dad."
After saying that, he ran back to his room.
Su Yanli said to Ding, "Let's not talk about my lack of interest in these things. Just think about this little rascal. Do I dare to mess around outside?"
The son-in-law spoke so pitifully that even Mrs. Ding couldn't help laughing. She turned around and glared at her daughter, picked up Xiao Silang, and said, "Let the master tell you slowly." After that, she took the child and went to sleep with her.
Cheng Yingzhen: ...Did I stand on the wrong side just now?
Su Yanli closed the door, put down the ruler, and walked to his wife. "You are on the right side. I am worthy of your trust."
Cheng Yingzhen smiled and threw herself into his arms, "But why do I feel so sorry for my daughter?"
"Can your daughter stay with you until old age?" Su Yanli was still angry. He originally didn't want to bother his wife with these things, but this girl had to pick out these unimportant things. If he didn't beat her, who else would he beat?
"Can……"
"Don't worry, she will have a husband who loves her in the future."
"Oh." Cheng Yingzhen was a simple person. Once her husband coaxed her, she didn't think too much about it. Now that Ding was helping to take care of Xiao Silang, the couple had a lot more private time.
So... the night was not long...
On the side, in the dark corridor, Lu Dani saw that the main courtyard had finally stopped moving, and breathed a sigh of relief. She returned to her room, where Shu Tong was sorting out the shopping list for the day. When he heard his wife come in, he smiled and said, "If I say it's okay, then it's okay."
Lu Dani patted her chest and said, "I didn't expect that such a kind master would use a ruler to hit the second lady. Besides, the second lady is so sensible and capable, what could she have done wrong to make the master want to hit her?"
Shu Tong chuckled, "Don't think that the second lady is sensible and sensible. She is still naughty when she should be naughty. The adults must teach her a lesson."
"But..." Lu Dani had never seen such a capable and sensible young lady, and she couldn't understand what bad things there were about her that needed to be taught by the master.
Finally, the diary was finished. Shu Tong saw that his wife was still thinking, and said with a smile, "They might really hit you, but our master is just bluffing, he won't really hit you. Don't worry, the master is still pampering the second lady, he won't hit her, he's just bluffing."
Early the next morning, Su Ruojin told Shu Tong the general idea of the dishes to be cooked, and Shu Tong drove a mule cart to take Su Yanli to the Imperial College to take up his post, and then bought the dishes back.
With Lu Dani, Su Ruojin has now become a boss who only talks but does not do anything. "Aunt, when you give birth to a child and the child runs away, I will open a restaurant and let you be the chef."
Looking at such talented people, Su Ruojin couldn't help but think of opening a restaurant. Besides, by the time Lu Dani's child is old enough to run, it would probably be three or four years later, and the time would be ripe by then.
Lu Dani was a little worried, "My house is on fire..."
"In a few years, your sister will definitely be able to handle things on her own."
"That's right." Lu Dani breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt, you don't think it will open next year, do you?" Su Ruojin said with a smile, "Even if I want to, even if you can give birth to a fat boy by the end of this year, that fat boy won't leave until the end of next year or the beginning of next year, right?"
Isn't it just three years?
Lu Dani: … Is the Second Lady really eight years old? How come she looks older than her mother? What she said was weird and embarrassing. She was shy and wanted to slap the young master for some reason. Suddenly, an idea came to her: was it because of this senior official that the Second Lady was beaten?
If that's the case, then the Second Lady...really deserves a couple of claps.
Su Ruojin didn't know that in just two days, not only was her father so angry that he wanted to beat her, but even the honest and capable Aunt Shu Tong was too shy to slap her.
Su Ruojin: ...
When Feng Acao went out from home, she wore her best clothes, but when she arrived in the capital, she was still dusty and not much better than the beggars on the street. In the evening, the host's family held a family banquet. Xianggui couldn't bear it anymore, so she took an hour off in the afternoon, took her mother to the street, and bought a whole set of clothes from head to toe. Feng Acao cried out in distress.
"Let me take this money back and buy good food and clothes for your nephew. Oh, and your brother hasn't gotten married yet, so he needs money everywhere. How can you spend money so lavishly?
Xianggui acted as if she didn't hear anything. If it wasn't for the purpose of sitting at the host's table for dinner, she wouldn't have spent such thankless money.
After getting along with Dong's mother for a long time, I originally hated my original family and didn't want to take the money back to support Xianggui from her mother's side. But under Dong's mother's nagging, I understood a truth: in one's life, especially for women, the only one they can rely on is themselves in the end. So no matter whether they get married in the future, it is most reassuring to have money in their hands.
So no matter how much my mother nagged, Xianggui just wouldn't give in, and finally replied impatiently, "If you keep talking and crying, I have no money."
Feng Acao was shocked by her daughter's ruthlessness, "Agui, you were not like this before."
Before? Thinking back, it seemed like something from a previous life. Xianggui sneered, "What was it like before? Everything revolved around the Chen family. The betrothal gifts were all given to the boys in the family. If I married into the in-laws' family, I would be useless if I didn't get money from the in-laws' family to support my parents all year round. If I couldn't give birth to a child, I would be divorced and sent home. I would be useless, so the Chen family wanted to grind me to death..."
"Agui..." When her daughter talked about sad things, Feng Acao also felt sad. If she hadn't protected her daughter, her daughter would have starved to death by her mother-in-law.
Xianggui also understood that although her mother was confused, she had saved her life after all. She sighed and secretly wondered whether she should give her mother some money when she returned.
