Chapter 74 Overthinking

Chapter 74 Overthinking

"Not only Gu Zixuan, but also Gu Suiyu. None of the youngsters in the family are worry-free. You'd better stay away from them!"

"Mother, Sister Sui Yu was framed!"

Yin Zhengnan was anxious: "It's all because of that beast Lin Yousheng..."

"That's enough!" Zhao Yingqiao scolded coldly, "If Gu Suiyu hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, would a beast have taken advantage of him? Flies don't bite cracked eggs, do you understand?"

In short, there must be something wrong with Gu Suiyu, otherwise, why would Lin Yousheng not look for anyone else's daughter but only Gu Suiyu?

As soon as Zhao Yingqiao opened her mouth, Yin Zhengnan was unable to utter a word.

He could only frown and resist silently, but fortunately he had an older brother. Recently, the eldest princess was keeping a close eye on Yin Zhengwei's studies and had no time to deal with her youngest son. She could only keep giving him lectures.

"Here, take this small piece of soap and use it."

Zhao Yingqiao gave the smallest piece to her youngest son, planned to give the middle piece to her daughter, and keep the big one for daily use. As for the eldest son's, she would wait until Su Jin sent it back.

When Su Jin returned home, Mr. Zhuzhi came to pay him a visit.

It was originally agreed that only Gu Zixuan would be taught, but in the end, he had to teach all the children in the family.

"Sir, this is a little gift from me. You have worked hard recently."

Su Jin presented the dim sum she had bought. These were dim sum from Luk Fook Sang, the most famous dim sum shop in Beijing. They were quite expensive, and of course, tasted delicious.

Su Jin brought back two boxes, one for Zhuzhi and one for herself.

Mr. Zhuzhi is tall and thin, with a beautiful goatee that is neither long nor short, smooth and slightly curled, and very stylish.

"My lady, you are thoughtful. I have been away from the government for so many years, and I have devoted all my energy to teaching and educating people. If I can teach more students, it will be more rewarding for me."

Mr. Zhuzhi was smiling and looked very well-educated, which made Su Jin feel a little relieved.

"I wonder what you think of the children, sir?"

"Hmm..." Mr. Zhuzhi thought for a moment and said, "Fifth Brother is a spiritual person..."

Fifth brother? Isn't that Gu Zilu?

Su Jin nodded and said that this youngest son was the only one who he could take care of without any worries, which was great.

"The eldest son, the second son, and the fourth daughter are all working very hard. The remaining one is too young and can't keep up, so we have to let him learn something else first."

Gu Zifeng is ten years old, but still can't keep up. He is not even a student, and Gu Changqing rarely asks about him. The original body didn't care about the children born to a concubine. His biological mother, Aunt Mei, not only has to look at the original body's face, but also Lin Wanhui's face, so she can't take care of the children.

"Actually, Brother Xuan is also very good." Mr. Zhuzhi said with a smile: "A gentleman does not necessarily have to be good at learning. Brother Xuan is good at riding and shooting, which makes him more comprehensive than Brother Lu."

Su Jin responded calmly, treating it as if her husband was just visiting her home. After the conversation, she personally sent her husband out and ordered the kitchen to prepare a few delicious dishes for him.

After dealing with these, Su Jin called Yuchuan and a few others to start settling today's accounts.

Soon, today's income was calculated. Four people paid 500 taels of silver in advance, and a lot of cloth in stock was sold, earning 220 taels. Everyone came for the 20 taels of soap, which helped Su Jin to use up a lot of stock.

An Xiaoniang was very happy: "Madam, today is a great start!"

Yuchuan was even more happy and asked, "Will it be like this every day in the future?"

"How could that be?" Su Jin flipped through the accounts. "It's only been prosperous during the opening period. A good iron must be made strong. Whether we can retain the customers we attract depends on whether we can always bet on the right trends. In addition, we must maintain our old customers, especially the ones who recharged today."

top up?

What's the meaning?

Although we didn't understand, we all knew who these four people were referring to.

"Everyone says that the eldest princess is arrogant and difficult to get along with, but who would have thought that she would have such a pleasant conversation with the eldest lady."

"Humph, who is our eldest lady? She has a lot of abilities!"

Yuchuan naturally praised Su Jin without thinking. After all, her own wife was the best and she would not accept any rebuttal.

Su Jin just smiled at this. After all, everyone likes to hear nice things.

"Madam, the tea is ready."

An Xiaoniang brought the tea over personally, so Su Jin could have some snacks with the tea.

Honey cakes and happy balls are both delicious, but the best is the crispy abalone, which is made of cream. Although the taste is not as good as those in the cake shop, it is not worse than the old-fashioned cream cake.

Su Jin took a bite and then a sip of hot tea, and felt that life was so perfect. It was a pity that the crispy abalone snail was missing something. It would definitely be more delicious if it could be topped with a thousand-layer egg tart crust.

“Can this crispy abalone snail be made into other shapes?”

Su Jin suddenly had an idea and asked casually. Jin Chuan smiled and said, "Yes, I heard that there is a maid in a family who can make all kinds of shapes, such as flowers, fruits, and phoenixes, and can also write poems!"

Su Jin was filled with surprise and thought to himself that our great Hua country was worthy of its name. In this era, there were masters of decorating flowers. That was amazing.

Su Jin tasted a few pieces and shared the rest with Yuchuan and An Xiaoniang. She wiped her mouth, stood up and walked out.

"Let's go to the old lady's room."

It would be better to tell the old lady about what happened today. After all, she still wants to be comfortable for a while. She doesn't want to wait until something happens and then the old lady comes to cause trouble for her and despises her for knowing the truth and not telling her.

Thinking of this she walked into the old lady's yard.

Zou was busy in the house, with an abacus and accounts spread out on the table. She held up a magnifying mirror and looked down at the account book. The mirror reflected the pearly light, and it was translucent and crystal.

Su Jin took a glance at it. This thing was called "叆叇" in that era. It was made of crystal and was very expensive.

"Mother!"

"The lady is here."

Zou smiled and put down her glasses: "I heard that your shop has a free soap event, which attracted a lot of people?"

"It's just a small fight, nothing compared to my mother."

Su Jin smiled, and Zou also smiled, thinking that she was indeed not as good as herself. Such a precious thing, she couldn't even sell it in time, but her daughter-in-law actually gave it away for free? ?

I can only say that she is indeed the daughter of a wealthy family, she is strong and wealthy.

Zou was a little upset, so she asked, "Why, you don't have enough soap to give away, so you want to get some from me?"

Free gift? People will go crazy to buy it. No amount of soap will be enough!

Su Jin smiled and said, "It's enough. I didn't give much in total. By the way, mother, there is something I don't know if my daughter-in-law is overthinking."

Zou was not very concerned about what Su Jin said.

In short, it's all about business. If I give away the soap for free, I'm afraid I'll lose money. So you want to go back to doing the soap business with me?
