Chapter 44
On a rest day, the afternoon sun was a bit hot, but fortunately, the Songtao Pavilion was full of shade. Mrs. Chang was reading a book under the shade of the trees in the yard, and she was very comfortable, while Su Wu was practicing sword moves in the courtyard to stretch his muscles.

After a while, Su Wu put away the long sword and sat down to drink tea in front of his wife, as if suddenly remembering, he asked, "Where did Zijin go today?"

A few days ago, my daughter inspected the Su family property shop, but she often found work for herself. The last time Hu Da asked about it, he asked Anding Bo and others to drink a few times. The head coaxed or frightened the civilians who had sold their land to pay back the land, restore the scale when it was bestowed by His Majesty, and dealt with the leader of the village, and finally calmed down.

Those Zhuangtou were all meritorious or old servants, and there were hardworking people without credit. Apart from their own family, there were even some turmoil in the families of several other honorable families, and rumors spread in the capital.His Majesty also asked about it.

Thinking of His Majesty's inquiry, and knowing that Zijin's turmoil was caused by the investigation of the imperial gift land, Su Wu couldn't help but feel a little bitter and proud.

What's bitter is that the daughter is vigorous and resolute, checking the problem one by one every day, but leaving the follow-up processing of the problem to herself. When the girl is finishing up, she still has to smile and take the initiative to say that the girl is doing well.

Even if some people think that they are meddling in their own business, in His Majesty's satisfied expression, they don't dare to complain too much, but follow the crowd to praise their daughter against their will.

Su Wu had already made plans to rest and take a bath today, but he would continue to answer all kinds of questions from his daughter, but he didn't expect to be able to rest at home safely.

Hearing her master's words, Mrs. Chang raised her eyelids and looked away from the book, "Why, you don't feel used to it when my daughter doesn't arrange things for you?"

Su Wu smiled "hehe" and did not hide his thoughts, "In the past, I always felt that our family was clearly not a family of Lao Shizi, but we still had a few unspeakable chronic diseases. Now Zijin is going all the way to bring our family All the problematic areas have been cleaned and solved, and I feel indescribably relaxed and happy in my heart."

Mrs. Chang rolled her eyes, "Yo, so you know there is a problem? I thought you, a general, would be dismissive of this family property."

Yin and Yang complained strangely, and seeing her master scratching his head, Madam Chang said, "You are thinking about how much property our family can have? Your daughter is alone every day, and she has already broken through. She will deal with minor problems herself. There are too many things involved, and all the hard-to-handle items are thrown to you. Now Zijin has already handed over the account book. People said that she has cleared this bit of property, and the rest will be checked regularly. I don’t want to intervene in the small tasks I do on weekdays to relieve my boredom. Right now, I have nothing to do, and I took people out to go shopping in style.”

Su Wu couldn't help laughing, the tea in his mouth almost spewed out, coughed, Su Wu leaned on the back of the chair, and sighed comfortably, "I really should let the people in the household department see what my daughter is capable of."

Su Zijin didn't know that her father was suddenly idle and uncomfortable. She was shopping in the most prosperous tax street in Kyoto with Hou Yi and other guards.

"Miss, the Huibin Building just now looked luxurious, but the food tastes mediocre. Next time, let's go to Deyuelou to try Huaiyang cuisine. I heard that there are quite a lot of gourmets there."

Hou Yi followed behind Su Zijin, bending over to talk, looking like a dog leg.

Su Zijin glanced sideways at the flattering Hou Yi, "Okay, next time please."

Hou Yi's face wrinkled in an instant, and the already casual facial features were crowded together, which made it even more ugly, "You are a young lady, how can you be so humble as to do it for me?"

Su Zijin was annoyed, "You shouldn't have less money in your pocket than me, right?"

Hou Yi quickly clutched his purse and waved his hands, "How can I compare with you? The younger ones have to save money to marry a wife, and the expenses will be high in the future. You can't spend money recklessly. A meal in a restaurant costs several taels of silver, plus these animals , a meal costs dozens of taels, how can a humble person afford it.”

There was a black line on Su Zijin's forehead, "You mean to say that I've been taken advantage of, right?" Su Zijin winked at the guards behind, and the people who had just heard Hou Yi call them "animals" swarmed up and pressed Hou Yi's body. Neck, "Who are you talking about? The lady invites you to eat as long as you want, why do you say it out on purpose! In the future, if the lady doesn't invite you, it will be your fault?"

Hou Yi is a smart person. Hearing that the style of painting was wrong at this time, he hurriedly continued, "Where is it, the lady is so generous, why would you care about this with us? I am used to being poor, and I have said the wrong thing. It is time to hit me! Miss, You can take us wherever to eat next time, we don't choose!"

Su Zijin didn't bother to respond to the one who sang the same song, and walked away.

"Hey, miss, don't leave! Aren't you looking for the young master who holds the "Book of Songs"? It's right here, Guan Guan Jujiu, in the river continent. My fair lady..."

On the bustling Taxation Street, there was a sudden noise, causing passers-by to look over involuntarily.

On Taxation Street, people who come and go are wearing brocade clothes, either with status or wealth, so although there are many shops and shoppers come and go, there is no noise, but lively but orderly, even restaurants The waiter at the door entertains the guests with enthusiasm but without being noisy.Right now there is a sudden conflict, and it seems to involve the courtship of a man and a woman, which immediately attracts everyone's attention. From the street to the end of the street, everyone's eyes are attracted to it.

Su Zijin didn't like to join in the fun by nature, she only liked to read gossip, so she looked at the place of conflict, Su Zijin pointed to a teahouse opposite, "Come on, let's go there."

The second floor of the tea house is an excellent place where you can watch the excitement at close range without being crowded.

After going up to the VIP room on the second floor, Su Zijin sat at the window and looked down.

It turned out that the place where the conflict happened was a book store, which seemed to be quite large in scale, with four open doors, some introductory books and paintings of landscapes, flowers and birds were placed at the door. If it wasn't for the maid of the lady in front trying to stop her, I'm afraid the scholar who was dragging behind would have reached the arm of the lady in front.

The growth of the book is very strange. Obviously, the five senses are passable alone, but when they are combined, Su Zijin somehow reminds Su Zijin of the word "sharp-eared monkey cheeks". Compared with others, Hou Yi is even more pleasing to the eye.The brand new student uniform on the scholar was wasted in vain.

"Miss, isn't that Miss Jiaojiao?"

The young lady covering her face with a handkerchief in front of her was pulling her hand slightly away, revealing a small half of her face and immediately covered it tightly, but Hou Yi was born as a scout, and he was born to recognize people and things more sensitively than others. At this time, he said it was Su Jiaojiao. , Su Zijin's expression changed instantly.
