Chapter 163 Is this the Miss Su that everyone praises?
"Ma'am, what would you like to buy?" the waiter asked politely.
The mother and daughter walked around the store for a long time. It seemed that they were here to sell vermicelli, but they kept walking around the store with their bags, as if they were looking for someone.
"Hey, are you Hu's Grocery Store?" Su He glanced around.
"Yes, girl, do you have vermicelli to sell?" The waiter smiled.
The grocery store, which was on the verge of collapse, suddenly became very popular after it started buying and selling vermicelli.
Stores in various towns and villages purchase and deliver the goods regularly, which are then aggregated and repackaged in the county town and quickly sent to surrounding provincial capitals. These days, large quantities are being sent to Jiangnan.
We recruited several batches of staff, but we were still unable to handle the work, so we also increased the purchase of honey and tea oil.
The guy is now a small manager, his salary has doubled, and life at home has become much better.
"Is your boss the second son of County Magistrate Hu?" Su He asked again.
"That's right!" The waiter looked at the mother and daughter calmly.
She was wearing shabby clothes. It was early winter and she was wearing only a few pieces of clothing. She was shivering and looked poor. Her eyes were rolling around, looking too lively.
The woman next to him had flickering eyes, as if she was nervous or afraid of something.
"Mr. Hu Erlang is very familiar with me!" After getting confirmation, Su He immediately changed his demeanor and acted domineering.
"A friend of the boss?" the waiter hesitated. "May I ask your name?"
"My last name is Su, and I'm from Black Wind Township!" Su He puffed out his chest. "Where's your boss? Why isn't he here?"
I went to the grocery store in Heifeng Township several times, but never met Hu Erlang.
This time, it was their mother, Xiao Qin, who tricked Feng Dazhuang into bringing them out. They set out before dawn, took a ox cart in Heifeng Township, and arrived at the county town around noon.
I didn't dare to rush to the county government office, so I went to Hu Ji Grocery Store first to take a look.
"Oh, you are Miss Su! I'm so sorry!" The guy's attitude immediately changed and he became warm.
I have always heard from the shopkeepers that the Hu family's business prospered thanks to the daughter of the Su family in Heifeng Township.
Especially the shopkeeper Zhu, when he talked about Miss Su, he admired her very much.
I finally got to see his true appearance today, but I was a little disappointed. He seemed petty, especially those rolling eyes, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
He suppressed his doubts, invited the mother and daughter to sit in the backyard, poured them hot water and added honey to treat them.
It was originally just a test, so I deliberately left it vague and said I was from Black Wind Township, but I didn’t expect it to work!
The mother and daughter looked at each other, proud of having taken the first successful step.
I originally wanted to make a good living in the Feng family in Nangou Village by using the artificial beekeeping and tea oil pressing that Su Ying mentioned.
It turns out that things are not as simple as imagined.
They persuaded Feng Dazhuang to raise bees. They didn't know what the structure of the beehive was like. They had only seen the appearance, and they tried for a long time but failed.
I also wanted to squeeze tea oil, but the tea oil fruits on the mountain were already past the picking time and all fell to the ground, and some began to rot.
I picked up some and brought them back to dry in the sun. I had no idea about the following steps. I tried to figure out how to fry, crush, and steam them, but since I didn't have an oil press, I stopped again.
Feng Dazhuang's mother, Mrs. Li, was initially tempted by the trick, but after repeated failures and a lot of time and effort, she gained nothing and her face became unhappy.
After tinkering with it for a while, Su He, who was used to being lazy, couldn't stand this miserable life of "getting up earlier than the chickens and sleeping later than the dogs" anymore, so he started to give up.
How could Li see that? At least the cheap daughter-in-law could still look forward to giving birth to children for the Feng family.
What kind of woman is this? She's lazy and a burden, unable to carry anything.
Li is not a member of the Su family. She cares about face and only educates people with words.
Seeing that Su He was staying in bed in the morning, Li scolded him twice but it didn't work. She went straight into the room, lifted the quilt, and dragged him out by the ear.
Su He was very excited at first. When she fought with Li, Feng Dazhuang kicked her so far that she couldn't get up for a long time. Only then did she realize that she could not reason with a rough man.
From then on, my laziness was cured and I had endless work to do every day.
It wasn't long before the whole county learned how to make vermicelli, keep bees, and press tea oil, and the things that Su He was proud of in Nangou Village became worthless.
The key point is that she is just a half-baked person. Compared with those who have received formal training in the county, the things she produces are not good to look at.
Therefore, she only eats her own vermicelli, and the shopkeeper Zhu in Heifeng Township refuses to buy them.
When it became popular in the village, the Li family went to learn how to make it, and only then did the Feng family make real vermicelli.
Both mother and daughter are very ambitious and cannot bear hardship or loss.
Feng Dazhuang was fond of the fact that Xiao Qinshi was an official's wife, and he earned enough face in the village. He would occasionally take over Xiao Qinshi's work, and at first the two of them lived a sweet and romantic life.
Su He was unhappy and kept whispering in Xiao Qin's ear, saying that Feng Dazhuang was a rough and ugly man and was not as good as his good-for-nothing father.
Xiao Qin, who originally wanted to live a peaceful life, was provoked by her daughter's words. She became upset and started to find fault.
This is not right, that is not right. Feng Dazhuang was greedy for her beauty and tried to coax her in a humble manner with a smile.
Xiao Qin thought she had Feng Dazhuang under her control, so she became more and more rude in her words, even calling Feng Dazhuang a coward.
Feng Dazhuang was not Su Laoer, so he immediately gave Xiao Qinshi a slap in the face. Her ears were buzzing and she couldn't hear anything for two or three days.
At night, he was no longer gentle and considerate, but rather tortured me to death.
Xiao Qinshi then realized that she was scared and begged for mercy repeatedly.
After that, Feng Dazhuang stopped pretending and stopped trying to please others.
When she was angry, she would drag Xiao Qin into the house and torment her. If she didn't obey, she would be beaten until she cried for her parents.
The mother and daughter hit a wall and saw who the real villain was. They regretted it and missed their days in the Su family very much.
She wanted to escape back to the Su family, but Feng Dazhuang was watching her closely, so Xiao Qinshi couldn't escape.
Since she couldn't see Hu Erlang, she could only find a way to get to the county town. As long as she could hug Hu Erlang's big, thick legs, she could escape from the sea of suffering.
The mother and daughter planned for several days and finally succeeded in tricking Feng Dazhuang into coming to the county town.
"Girl, are you coming today..." the waiter asked.
"It's nothing important. I just haven't seen Mr. Hu for a long time. I wonder where he went?" Su He acted like a mistress and sat upright.
"?" The guy stared at Su He in astonishment.
Didn’t the boss just come back from Heifeng Township a few days ago? He said that Miss Su proposed to open a paper mill, so he hurried to the provincial capital to find a papermaking master.
Why did this Miss Su say she hadn't seen the boss for a long time? Was it because I misheard, or did she feel like she hadn't seen him for a long time?
"What? It's not convenient to say?" Su He cheated.
"No, the boss went to the state capital two days ago!" the waiter said respectfully.
Miss Su is the God of Wealth of the Hu family. She must be treated well and not offended, otherwise she will be exposed by the shopkeeper and the boss.
The boss was so busy that Mrs. Hu, who had been away from work for a long time, came back and took charge personally.
"Going to the provincial capital?" Su He was surprised. "What are you going to do there? In just a few days, Mr. Hu's business has grown so big!"
In Su He's opinion, only poor people would want food made from worthless grass roots and tree roots.
She doesn't understand business operations and is not a new modern woman. She is an ancient boudoir girl, the kind of brainless person who is not smart enough and likes to act up.
The only difference between her and the poor girl is that she knows a few words, nothing more.
"?" The guy was full of doubts.
Why does something feel wrong? This Miss Su is not as smart as I imagined. She even seems shallow and brainless!
"Hey, what are you looking at? I'm asking you a question." Su He hated the way people looked at her, as if she was stupid or suspicious. Su Ying always looked at her like that.
"How would a shop assistant like me know about the boss's affairs?" The shop assistant chose his words carefully, not as enthusiastic as before.
The girl's attitude was condescending and made the guy feel uncomfortable. If she said a few more words, the guy would want to kick her out.
Is this the Miss Su that everyone praises?
