Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 11 Family Dinner
It was almost impossible to communicate, Su Yizhao was about to give the dog a love education, when he heard the sound of footsteps from far to near.

"I heard that there are delicacies from mountains and seas for the dinner party. I have to prepare it now. Brother Dog, let's go!"

After Su Yizhao finished speaking, he left with his hands behind his back. Gouzi licked his mouth, grunted, and lay down again.

"Look, it's not that I want to laugh at you. Anyway, you are not as good as a dog."

At this time, Shumei poked her head out of her sleeve, just now she was rolling in her sleeve with laughter.

Su Yizhao pulled it out, casually threw it on the grass beside him, and strode towards the yard.

Before leaving, I heard the mouse muttering, saying that she crossed the river and demolished the bridge.

Su Yizhao snorted coldly in her heart, she can go anywhere without walking in her sleeves, she is really lazy.

When she returned to the yard, Yue Rong and Yue Qiu were immersed in joy.

"I didn't expect my wife to ask the people in the sewing room to prepare it. This new dress is so beautiful. The young master has fair skin now. As long as he wears it, he must be the most handsome young man."

Yueqiu took out the clothes to have a look, seeing that the size was just right, she couldn't help laughing.

"This time, let our master take a look. How ugly is our young master? He is prejudiced."

Yuerong was also overjoyed, completely forgetting that when she first met Su Yizhao, she was too ugly to speak.

How deep is the courtyard? Spring is here in Yunchuangwuge!
The door curtain embroidered with red hibiscus flowers in sauce red keeps out a little spring cold outside the flower hall, and six screens carved with rocks, flowers and birds separate men and women, and separate them into seats.

There are three tables for men and women each, and the flower hall is packed to the brim with a large family.

Su Yizhao couldn't help becoming absent-minded when he heard the movement of the female family next door.

I went to meet the old lady just now, and this is the first time she has met her elders on a formal occasion when she returns home.

Because it happened that the juniors in the mansion were going to pay their respects, the other three house heads finally saw the real person.

The Su family is also considered prosperous. Mr. Su has four sons and a daughter, and his daughter Su Rusi is married to He Zhongsheng, the eldest son of the He family.

He Zhongsheng is Zuo Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, from the official position of the fifth rank.It is not as good as the old man in the family, but it is said that he is expected to be promoted next year.

Don't ask Su Yizhao how he knew, just now at the banquet when the cups were being exchanged, it was all congratulations to this one, and it was pretty much the same after all.

"Xiaoqi, eat more and take good care of your body!"

Suddenly an egg yolk lion's head was put into Su Yizhao's bowl, and she looked over in surprise.

This is a handsome young man with profound facial features, sword eyebrows and deep eyes, with a good appearance.

Wearing an emerald green round-neck gown with tufted flowers, it made the other party look a little more bookish, and his eyebrows softened a lot.

This is the eldest son of the third master Su Wenzhou, named Su Yijue, he is eighteen years old, and he is the fifth in the family!

The Su Mansion has always ranked men and women separately. There are several sisters. Su Yizhao has not yet matched their names and faces.

"Thank you Fifth Brother!" Su Yizhao raised his face and smiled sweetly.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, this is the first person to show kindness to himself today.

"Xiaoqi eat more!"

Su Yijue touched Su Yizhao's head, and the soft touch under his hands made the corners of his mouth slightly rise.

Although I don't know why this person showed kindness to her, but for the current Su Yizhao, this is not the focus of her attention at all.

I have to say that the noodles of Zhongming Dingshi Home are really exquisite.

The steamed chicken feet in drum sauce tastes very good, the mandarin fish with pine nuts is also delicious, and the chicken marrow bamboo shoots are even more delicious.

Bamboo shoots in early spring are very tender, but they are hard to come by.

It's just that these big families can afford it, I'm afraid it's not cheap.

Su Yizhao squinted her eyes, this was the first delicacies she ate after she came to this dynasty.

Su Yijue looked at Su Yizhao with a satisfied expression, but his eyes became intriguing.

This table is full of juniors, while the elders and promising grandchildren sit at the first table.

"The second child has been in office for three years. I don't know if there will be a transfer this year!"

Su Yizhao's eyes were immediately attracted by the speaker. This is the third master Su Wenzhou, who is now working in the Imperial Academy, serving as a sixth-rank attendant.

Mr. Su has put down his chopsticks and is stroking his beard.

The girls who were waiting at the side hurried forward to clean up the dishes. The big family pays attention to eating and sleeping without talking. It is already finished eating!
"After the three-year term expires, if you are selected as an excellent candidate, you will naturally be promoted. However, I heard that there was a plague of locusts in Wenshan County, Changbei Prefecture last year. I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

The elder Su Wenchun sighed. He is a doctor of the household department. This year's tax revenue in Changbei Prefecture has decreased by [-]% compared to last year, so he naturally knows.

Plague of locusts?Su Yizhao immediately pricked up his ears.Locusts like drought, so Changbei Prefecture should be in the north.

A few days ago, I heard from Yueqiu that the second master, Su Wenjing, was released as the magistrate of Wenshan County, Changbei Prefecture, and took his female relatives to take up the post.

"This? Then the second brother may have no hope of promotion next year!" The third master Su Wenzhou also shook his head and sighed, looking rather regretful.

"This is a natural disaster, not human-made! Wenshan County is a poor place. Even if the second brother advocates honesty and wisdom and works hard, he will be powerless!"

After the elder aunt He Zhongsheng finished speaking, he glanced at the crowd, his eyes were dark and inexplicable.

Everyone had different expressions, but he continued: "The previous county magistrates of Wenshan County all did not seek nothing but nothing, but I don't know why my second brother wants to seek a job here."

"Even if it's a place of bitter cold, someone has to go. If it's not you and me, it's someone else."

The elder master said something specious, but he didn't explain much about the second master's move.

"Before now, my son-in-law and my second uncle had occasional chats. Seeing that my second uncle was sad about the times and worried about the country and the people, I thought it was to share the worries of the court and the Holy One. I couldn't bear the suffering of the people in Wenshan County. I just wanted to save the people from the fire!"

The eldest son-in-law Jiang Lianzhi took what his father-in-law said, but it was just a scene.

"If you are successful, you will naturally not worry about the future. But in Wenshan County, if you can keep it, you can be considered as capable."

Sun Su Yiyuan, head of Su’s house, shook his head. The second uncle has always been ambitious, but he was not able to please the county magistrate of Wenshan County, and he was lucky to retire in the end.

"Cough cough!"

The elder Su Wenchun suddenly coughed lightly, and Su Yiyuan realized that he had made a slip of the tongue.

Su Yiyuan felt a little regretful, he was a little casual in front of his father on weekdays, so he forgot about today's occasion.

What is Jiang Lianzhi's identity?Grandfather has always been fond of him, and if he inherits the title in the future, the family will have to rely on him.

I am just a junior, so it would be frivolous to talk about my elders like this.

Su Yizhao pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation at that table while eating, it seems that the second master is having a difficult time in office!

It stands to reason that Mrs. Su is a member of the third rank, so it shouldn't be difficult to find a rich place for his son to work in, right?
Is it for political achievement?That's a little radical.

"His own choice, our Su family's family motto, must have a beginning and an end. What happens in the future depends on his own fortune."

The old man put down the teacup and said suddenly.
