son-in-law

Chapter 333
The Bailu solar term is cool in the morning and evening.

The weeds are dark green, and the lotus leaves are exposed.Before dawn, the maids went to the nearby lotus pond to board the boat.A short kettle and a long bamboo stick to get the dew.Feng Yu went out early for several days in a row, competing with the maids, just to get some tea for her "sister-in-law".

Originally Xiao Huan was going, but Feng Yu said: "I don't have much time left. I don't know where I will be sent in the future. Maybe I will never see my husband again. Let me take care of you."

She said so, how could Xiao Huan compete with her, she only thought that time was short, and Xiao Mei Niang cherished it even more.And with the help of Huang Tongxi, the old and the young, Feng Yu can return home with a full load every day, and will never lose to the maids in other people's houses.It is said that the old and the young are notoriously good at robbing things, with sharp eyes and quick hands, known as the double evil of the lotus pond.

When swan geese came, they offered sacrifices to Dayu, brewed grain wine, and drank white dew tea.Although Princess Chang'an is a bit picky, she has relatively loose control over the funds of the Duke's Mansion.To ensure that all kinds of rules are preserved, there are also many etiquettes in princely and noble families.Similarly, the government's care for Chang'an Princess is no weaker than that of the elders, and they sent someone to bring grain and wine early in the morning.

It is said that the princess got up very early today, but no one knew what she was busy with.Wang Xun blocked the door of the furnace room mysteriously, not allowing others to approach.Xiaohuan was annoyed because she couldn't get hot water, so she sat on the threshold and stared at the movement in the furnace room.Later, Wang Xun yelled, telling everyone to boil water, and a group of servants went to line up with kettles.

A while ago, Su Yu added a stove to the stove room, and also added a rotating maid who specialized in boiling water, but later, due to the departure of Lin Wan, Wang Xiu, Chen Qi, Tang Fei, Tang Cui, and Li Duocai, this post was abandoned by the county government. Master canceled.Su Yu asked Tang Ling'er to arrange another maid on duty, but Tang Ling'er said that you are just spoiling the servants and destroying the way of master and slave, so she refused.

The furnace room has returned to the previous scene, and every morning, servants carry kettles to boil water.Now that Su Yu's status is quite high, when Wang Xun took a pot of water for Tang Ling'er, Xiao Huan rushed to the front as a matter of course, took away the pot that Zhen Qiaoqiao put on the stove, and put it in her own hand. The empty pot was handed to Zhen Qiaoqiao.

Zhen Qiaoqiao had no choice but to leave with her mouth pouting, and wanted to fetch water again and start the fire again.Before Zhen Qiaoqiao, it was Shi Yao, and Wang Xun took Shi Yao's kettle away.

This batch of eight new maids, Wang Zhu, Tang Ji'er, Shi Yao, Zhen Qiaoqiao, Kong Yun, Zhang Miao, Li Xiao, and Dian Tao, suffered this kind of treatment in turn.The little maids of them seem to have formed a tacit understanding, and they know who will be unlucky today.If the master got up early or late today, so the water bottle was not snatched, they would also feel secretly happy.But that is clearly not the case today.Today, when the two unlucky guys came to meet in front of the well, they both smiled miserably and comforted each other.

Ever since helping Tang Linger win the business war, it seems to have become a routine for Su Yu to come to the princess's house for breakfast every day.

Tang Linger ate a little fast.When she finished eating, it was equivalent to announcing the end of breakfast.She insisted on "not talking when eating", but she put down her chopsticks and started talking.And Su Yu ate slowly as usual, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at any time.

According to Tang Linger, Han Dafu, the president of the Grain and Rice Chamber of Commerce, invited the Tang family to return to the Chamber of Commerce, but Tang Linger did not agree for a while considering the anger he received half a year ago.At that time, the Han family obviously had a full grain depot, but they just said that there was no rice at home.After being exposed by Tang Linger, Han Dafu also turned down his face to Tang Linger, saying that Tang Linger used ghost tricks to steal information.He also said that the landlord's family has rice and it is not cheap to sell it to the poor, let alone borrow it.

It would be embarrassing to borrow rice, and Han Dafu's words seriously irritated the princess. Tang Ling'er was annoyed and made a decision to quit the chamber of commerce.Seeing that Tang Ling'er was angry, Han Dafu was afraid of the Tang family's revenge, and it is said that he hid for a few days.Later, he pretended to send ten carts of old grain, and after getting some promises from Tang Zhen, he dared to show his head again.

When mentioning the past, Princess Chang'an's face turned red and then pale, and his mood changed drastically.Now Tang Linger is facing the same problem as Meng Sixun. Joining the chamber of commerce will bring many benefits to the Tang family, but it is a bit embarrassing.The game of reason and emotion made the princess a little distressed.

"If you join the chamber of commerce again, the Han family must agree to one condition. The supply of food to Qinghuafang cannot be cut off at any time. If they cannot agree to this, we will not join."

"Oh."

"I promised them that I will talk about things in Zuixian Tower this morning. Fourth Brother should have been arranged to go, but you know Fourth Brother's temper. I'm worried that he will start a fight with others after he goes."

Tang Ling'er put down half a bowl of egg custard, and all she had left was Wang Xun's breakfast.While Wang Xun was eating, she still squinted at Wang Xun.She is not like this usually, she looks a little weird today, I really don't know what answer she wants to find on Wang Xun's face.

Su Yu thought to himself, this is arranging work for himself again, but he just didn't understand what he said: "Then let me go."

Regarding Su Yu's volunteering, Tang Linger did not show any joy, but asked with a straight face, "I heard that you brought the Kong family into the Grain and Rice Chamber of Commerce?"

"Ah."

"There are more than a dozen members of the Grain and Rice Chamber of Commerce. How did you get through the joints? Ask one by one?"

"I didn't go, I just let Kong Xiang do it."

"Everyone knows that the Tang family is behind the Kong family, that's why they accepted the Kong family so smoothly. It's no wonder that Han Dafu told me with a shy face that he has helped me a lot. It turns out that the root is here. This is why he had the courage to come here. The reason for talking to me."

Su Yu raised his eyes to look at Tang Ling'er, the princess's wide eyes had a trace of undetectable resentment.It seems that some vested interests of the Tang family were handed over by Su Yu, but without her consent.

If the atmosphere is not good, it is the best policy to go.

Just as Su Yu wanted to get up, she heard Tang Linger say again: "I also heard that Qiu Gu arranged for an actor to be in the Meiling Hall. I have seen that actor before, and he was disgusting. And the rumors outside the Meiling Hall are all about us. Founded by the Tang family. Our family has never been involved in this industry before, and I even said all the ugly things."

Su Yu shrugged: "A few years ago, Wanhualou belonged to the Tang family?"

Tang Ling'er said with a cold face, "That was before I became a financial authority."

The princess' face became more and more ugly, Su Yu felt that he was walking a tightrope, challenging Tang Linger's bottom line.

Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere in the room was too dull, Tang Ling'er took the initiative to break the ice and asked Su Yu if he was still used to the egg custard today?

Su Yu said that the taste is not the same as usual.

Tang Linger asked, is it delicious or not?

Su Yu blinked, and said truthfully: It's a little salty, and it seems to have a taste of pepper, and I'm not used to it.

The princess's complexion suddenly became very bad, and he remained silent, and the resentment on his face became heavier, and gradually a touch of rosy color appeared on his face.

-

Feeling that Tang Linger was about to explode, she ran away.

However, Su Yu didn't go directly to Zuixian Tower, because he felt that going too early would make Han Dafu feel that the Tang family was eager to return home.

Su Yu came to Li's warehouse to tease the cats. The last time the six kittens fought with the cats in Dongdacang, one died and one was disabled. The other four also lost their skin and ears. They looked very miserable.However, this kind of semi-free-range cat is very tenacious, and the disabled cat can still catch mice with a limping leg, which is very gratifying.

Xiao Huan has long discovered that Su Yu is especially attractive to children and animals.As soon as Su Yu came to Li's warehouse, the five kittens gathered together meowing.Su Yu broke up the dried fish and fed them one by one.

When Chen Shi passed, all the bigwigs from the Grain and Rice Chamber of Commerce gathered, but there was still no sign of Su Yu.I went to the princess mansion to inquire three times in a row.The concierge maid said that the Princess is not at home, and Su Guiren has already gone out, and I don't know where he went.

In fact, Tang Linger was at home all the time, and her big car was parked not far from the door.Knowing this, Han Dafu did not dare to break into the door and expose Tang Linger.It wasn't until Sishi that Su Yu walked slowly into the Zuixian Tower, and had a few polite words with the oligarchs in the grain and rice industry, only saying that he was guilty of being late, and held a banquet at noon to make amends.

Adhering to the Tang family's usual domineering style at various negotiation tables, Su Yu didn't talk too much with this group of people, and threw out the conditions straight to the point.In addition to Tang Linger's conditions, Su Yu also added two more.Each one seems a bit overwhelming.Su Yu required that the storage capacity of the Tang family's granary must be twice the average of the warehouses of the five big chaebols, and also required that new rice entering Luoyang must first pass through the Tang family's warehouse.

Everyone knows the Tang family's temper very well, even when they were the poorest, they were the most violent.At the beginning, Mrs. Chen was such a strong person, facing Tang Zhen's harsh words, she was also sending food to Qinghuafang.However, the three conditions proposed by Su Yu were too harsh, and the negotiation quickly reached a deadlock.
