Chapter 122 Chapter 122 The Main Courtyard, ...
main courtyard,
"Please let me see the young master, Madam." Cao Rou, who was blocked outside, begged bitterly.
"Madam..."
Meanwhile, a woman was looking at the account book below. Hearing the noise, she became a little annoyed and quickly closed the book. She asked the maid next to her, "What is she doing here again?"
"She" is the term Song used to refer to Cao. Yes, in her eyes, Cao was just an insignificant object.
But this object gave birth to the first eldest son of the Wang family, which made it impossible for Song to just send her away like an object.
Unable to send her away, nor to do anything to her, the Song family could only ignore her as much as possible and pretend she didn't exist.
But sometimes, it cannot be ignored, such as now.
"She heard from somewhere that the young master couldn't eat due to the heat, so she insisted on seeing him."
The old woman replied respectfully.
This is another annoying thing. Recently, the child born by that bitch has refused to eat for some reason. Song has found several doctors and changed several cooks, but it’s all useless. The child just refuses to eat. It’s really annoying.
If she hadn't given birth to her own child yet, she really wouldn't want to care about it.
"Hmph, if she wants to see him, let her see him. See what she can do." If she can't do anything, what else can that little bitch do? Song didn't care at all.
"But my lady..." The old woman always felt that something was wrong.
Song interrupted the mother-in-law directly, "How can there be so many buts?"
"Don't bother me with such trivial matters in the future." The recent events at the restaurant were enough to annoy her, and she still had to worry about these things...
When the old woman heard this, although she was still a little worried, she still responded.
"Yes, ma'am." Then he turned around and went out to tell Aunt Cao about it.
"Our wife is magnanimous and allows you to see the young master, but aunt, you know that the young master takes a nap every day, so please go and come back quickly." The old woman looked like she was giving alms, but Cao found her pleasing to the eye for the first time.
"Yes, yes, please tell the mistress that I will come out as soon as I get there."
"That's the best." The old woman glanced at Cao and thought to herself, she really came from a poor family and has no rules.
However, Cao pretended not to see the other person's expression, and was only thinking about the joy of seeing her son soon.
But when she really saw it, she didn't feel happy, but uncomfortable instead, probably because she saw that her son, who used to be fat and plump, was now so thin that there was no flesh on his face.
"My son." After driving away the servants who were serving her son, Cao rushed over and hugged her son, tears streaming down her face like crazy. It was only after the old woman behind her reminded her that she came to her senses.
"Yes, my son, mother brought you some delicious food. Come on, bring it here."
Cao excitedly asked the maid to put the food on the table. After seeing the food, the child, who had been silent all the time, finally said, "Little rabbit."
"Yes, it's a little rabbit. Mother asked someone to make it specially for you. Do you want to eat it?" Cao looked at the boy in front of her tenderly and coaxed him softly.
The little boy nodded timidly.
He likes bunnies.
Seeing that her son was willing to eat, Mrs. Cao suppressed her excitement, picked him up, sat him at the table, picked up the spoon and slowly fed him. She first fed him yam puree, which was still warm and paired with sweet osmanthus sauce. The taste was delicate and smooth. The little boy fell in love with it after one bite. When Mrs. Cao was still scooping another spoonful, he was clamoring for more.
Seeing this, Cao was even happier. "My son, this is a rabbit bun. Do you want to eat it?"
“I want to eat!”
After eating half of the purple sweet potato bun, Cao fed him several spoonfuls of yam paste before feeding him the rest. "This is egg custard, it's delicious. Do you want some?"
The little boy nodded, and Cao fed him egg custard again.
The egg custard was delicious, too. Su Li's steamed egg custard was incredibly tender, without any holes at all. She even drizzled sesame oil and soy sauce on top, making it incredibly tender and smooth. Before I knew it, I'd finished a small bowl. The little boy ate most of the yam puree, half a bunny rabbit purple sweet potato, and a few spoonfuls of soup. By the end, his stomach was bloated.
When Cao saw this, she almost cried again. Damn Song, she really didn't know how to feel pain even though the child was not her own. Her son was not suffering from the summer heat, it was obvious that he didn't eat what he wanted. Look how happily he was eating now.
No, she couldn't let her son follow her.
Thinking of this, Cao suddenly came up with a plan.
At this time, on the other side, Song, who had said she didn't care, couldn't help but ask about the situation over there after Cao left. After learning that everything Cao sent was eaten, she almost pinched her nails off.
She is indeed a little bitch born of a bitch, she just loves to eat those low-quality things.
She has been so worried about him.
At this time, the old woman next to her said with some worry,
"Madam, if the master knew about this, would he think we were not taking good care of him?"
When Song heard this, she also thought of this and felt a little panicked, but she still said, "It's okay, the master won't be angry with me for such a small matter."
It can only be said that Song still underestimated how much Wang Gun valued his son. After hearing about this, although she didn't say anything, she was biased towards Cao in her heart and even allowed Cao to visit her son every day.
But these have nothing to do with Su Li. She is just a cook and all she has to do is cook the food.
Taking the silver and a few bags of cakes given by Madam Cao, Su Li and Su Tao left the Wang family.
"Mrs. Cao is so generous." Su Tao sighed. She gave 10 taels of silver just for cooking a meal.
Su Li also felt that it was a bit too much, but since Madam Cao insisted on giving it to her, it was hard to refuse. It was just as well that it was hot today and everyone had worked hard, so it would be a good idea to buy some cold melons and some summer drinks for everyone to drink.
However, when she went to buy the winter melon, she met Song Ling and his group. In addition to Shu Jiu, whom Su Li knew, there was also a nine-foot-tall man with a scar through his left eye.
"Madam Su, are you here to buy winter melons too?" Shu Jiu said happily when he saw Su Li.
"Yes." Su Li also responded with a smile, and then whispered to Song Ling beside her, "Mr. Song."
Song Ling, "Madam Su Si, Madam Su Wu."
After saying hello, they were supposed to go their separate ways, but the next second Song Ling said,
"I heard that Madam Su caught a cold a few days ago. I wonder if she's feeling better now?"
Su Li was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the other party to ask this. She first thanked him, then said, "Better."
Song Ling, "That's good. Xiao An cares about you very much."
During this period, Song Ling would bring his nephew Song Cheng'an to Su Ji Restaurant for dinner almost every day, and Su Li became more and more familiar with the two of them.
At this time, she was quite touched when she heard that the other party cared about her health. She said to the young man, "Please tell Xiao An that I am fine now. Thank you for your concern."
Song Ling agreed, "Okay."
Then Su Li asked the other party to bring Xiao Cheng'an to the restaurant if he was free, and she would prepare delicious food for them.
Song Ling agreed to all of them, which left Shu Jiu stunned again and again. When did his young master become so easy to talk to?
"Then we will buy the winter melon first. Mr. Song, please do as you please." The weather was hot, and Su Li just wanted to buy the winter melon as soon as possible and go back to the shop.
Song Ling, "Okay."
Song Ling then left. However, not long after, Shu Jiu returned in a carriage, "The Master asked me to take you back."
Su Li felt a little embarrassed. If they used it, wouldn't Young Master Song have to leave?
Furthermore, since they were not related, it was embarrassing to ride in someone else's carriage. However, Shu Jiu pretended not to hear Su Li's refusal and just said, "It was the master's order, ma'am."
The implication was obvious: as a servant, he had no power to influence the young master's orders.
So, Su Li and Su Tao had to sit on it, each carrying two cold melons.
The carriage must have been newly bought, and the furnishings inside were all very new. There was a small square table in the middle, on which were placed a book and a chessboard. The faint scent of ink and the faint scent of incense were well intertwined, and even in the hot summer, the restless heart instantly calmed down.
"This carriage is so comfortable to sit in."
"No wonder it's so comfortable, it's actually made of silk." Su Tao exclaimed.
"When we have money in the future, we can buy silk and satin to make cushions."
"Okay." Su Li also felt comfortable. She could do the same when she had money in the future.
Before I knew it, I arrived at Su Ji Food Shop.
Shu Jiu was very good at driving a carriage, and he did not make Su Li and Su Tao feel uncomfortable throughout the whole journey.
After getting off the carriage, Su Li thanked Shu Jiu and he left.
Wen Mansion,
"Delivered it?" The young man sat in the yard and played the piano. The sound of the piano was like the gurgling stream.
"It has been delivered to you, young master." Shu Jiuhui said.
The young man then stopped talking.
Shu Jiu then said, "Sir, Madam Lin said that your birthday is in two days and she wants to hold a birthday banquet for you."
The piano music paused, and the young man seemed to think of something. "It's just right, it's time to say goodbye to my aunt."
This was planned when he came to Qinghe County. After handing Cheng'an over to his master and aunt, he could do what he wanted with peace of mind. But why did he feel a little reluctant at this moment?
Why exactly? Song Ling asked herself.
He looked at Feiyan outside the courtyard wall and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Shu Jiu felt reluctant to leave when he heard that they were going to leave. He had not yet had enough of the food cooked by Madam Su, but his life was given by the young master, so he would go wherever the young master went. Moreover, they had come here to settle the young master, and now that he was settled, he had nothing to worry about.
“Sir, I’ll write to Shen Wu and ask him to pick us up when the time comes.”
"Um."
On the other side, at Su Ji Food Shop, when Su Li and Su Tao returned to the shop, there were not many customers in the shop. Everyone was either sitting or dozing in the yard.
Seeing Su Li coming back with a cold melon in her hand, they immediately stopped dozing off and came forward.
“It’s a cold melon!”
"What is a cold melon?"
“It’s an edible melon!”
"All right."
Everyone gathered around, talking to each other.
Su Li gave the cold melon to everyone and asked them to share it. In addition, she also distributed the drinks she bought to everyone. Everyone cheered when they saw this.
Who can resist the winter melon and iced drinks in summer? When the hot summer comes, eating a piece of winter melon is so delicious.
The only thing that Su Li felt sorry about was that the watermelons of this era were not particularly sweet. After she ate a piece, she began to miss the red and sweet watermelons of the past.
Fortunately, the drink was really delicious. She bought kumquat snow tea, which had a strong orange flavor and was icy and cool, which was very comfortable. After taking a sip, she felt that all the summer heat in her body had dissipated.
Everyone was drinking and chatting, and the laughter never stopped. However, when Su Li looked, Aunt Mo was not among them.
She found her mother Chen and asked her where she had gone, but she found out that Aunt Mo had gone back to move things.
What he meant was that he wanted to divorce Huang Lao Er.
