There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 66

After Tang Ju was happy, he learned about the whole thing in detail.

There were no loopholes in Su Xian's statement, and there was shopkeeper Luo testifying beside him, so it could be said that there were witnesses and evidence, Tang Ju believed it.

Mrs. Chen, Tang Shujing, Tang Shuwan, etc., also understood the whole story through the audition.

Finally, there was no need to resign, and finally there was no need to return to the divine capital. The mother and daughter were all smiling.

Mrs. Chen looked at Su Xian and nodded slowly, like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, becoming more and more pleased with her.

Tang Shuwan, who was hiding behind the screen, held her breath, glanced at Su Xian secretly, and then immediately shrank her head.

This brother I just recognized is so handsome...

Tang Juzhen carefully put the jade plaque away, his face glowing red and high-spirited, he looked at Su Xian and said:
"Nephew, the old man will be busy for a while, so please come back first, and I will invite my nephew over the house for a talk at the latest."

"Uncle Shi, although you are busy first, you should focus on important things and don't worry about me." Su Xian said with a smile.

Tang Ju nodded, looked at Shopkeeper Luo and said a few words, roughly "I'll treat you to tea later", which made Shopkeeper Luo's face flush with excitement. This time it was not in vain.

Su Xian took shopkeeper Luo to leave, and Tang Ju ordered Tang Shujing to see off the guests.

After they left, Tang Ju looked back and saw the exquisite wooden box Mrs. Chen was holding in her arms, and said with a smile:

"Madam, you just said you wanted to increase the reward to 2000 taels? Okay, I think it's great for my husband!"

"roll roll roll!"

Mrs. Chen hugged the small wooden box tightly and cursed: "I don't know your little thoughts? You are so courageous that you actually want to swallow 1000 taels!"

"..."

On the way back to Jiaolou Street, Su Xian packed a sumptuous meal from a large restaurant.

After returning to Jiaolou Street, I waved goodbye to Shopkeeper Luo.

After paying for the car rental, Su Xian carried large and small bags and went to the stinky tofu stall to get two portions of stinky tofu. At the same time, he told Zhang Cuihua the result of the trip.

After Su Xian came home, Zhang Cuihua immediately left the stinky tofu stall, went back to the house, and told the frightened Liu Huixiang about the results of Su Xian's county government and his party.

"It's fine!"

Liu Huixiang breathed a long sigh of relief.

After what happened in the boudoir that night, she made up her mind to entrust herself to Su Xian as a concubine.

So she was very concerned about Su Xian's safety.

Zhang Cuihua added: "As soon as tomorrow or the next day, the Ming government will invite Mr. Su to go to the county government office. The reward of 1000 taels should be collected at that time."

"A reward of 1000 taels..." Liu Huixiang frowned slightly, looking worried.

"Miss?"

"Oh, it's okay. Just go and guard the stall."

After Zhang Cuihua left, Liu Huixiang sat blankly for a long time, muttering to herself: "Master Su has not come to collect the dividends from Stinky Tofu for several days."

"After that night, I expected Mr. Su to be embarrassed and not come here easily...I was originally worried that he would be short of money, but now it seems... Mr. Su has the 1000 tael reward, let alone see it. You should get the dividends from having this little stinky tofu!”

Liu Huixiang sat there alone, full of sadness.

She wore newly made gorgeous clothes and used expensive "Chun Huetang" rouge and make-up. She sat there sadly, very lovable.

But no one came to love her.

Originally, before taking a cold shower that night, Zhang Cuihua had suggested inviting Su Xian over to discuss "cooperating with a restaurant to make stinky tofu."

But when that incident happened, Zhang Cuihua gave up her proposal.

After a while, Liu Huixiang got up, walked to the study room on the second floor, sat down in front of the case, and wrote the accounts of the stinky tofu stall.

She has received a good education since she was a child, and she has dabbled in arithmetic, but she is too good at it.

Especially the dense pile of words on the account book gave her a headache.

"Make your accounts more detailed. The more you can earn, the more you can earn, and the more you can save, the more you can save."

The ledger was already in a mess, and now it would be even more difficult for her to overturn and redo it.

But in order to increase her "weight" in Su Xian's heart, she took action without hesitation.

I don’t know how much time has passed. Liu Huixiang put down his pen and rubbed his eyebrows with both hands. He suddenly remembered what Su Xian said before leaving that night——

I need to give her an explanation.

What should I explain?

When will the explanation be made?
She was thinking about these questions in her mind and unconsciously lost her mind.

……

It is said that Su Xian returned home carrying a large bag and two portions of stinky tofu. As soon as he closed the door, he saw a head popping up at the top of the stairs with hair as messy as a chicken coop. It was Yang Zhilan.

Su Xian was about to ask her to come down and help get things.

As a result, Yang Zhilan retracted her head and did not appear again.

I don’t have the eyesight to see... Su Xian muttered and shouted: "Zhilan comes down to help get the things."

"You said, I'd better not go downstairs." Yang Zhilan appeared at the top of the stairs, her short figure as straight as a wooden stake, her voice remained calm and without any emotion.

You remember this sentence clearly... Su Xian said numbly: "As long as I'm here, what are you afraid of?"

Yang Zhilan paused and stepped on the worn wooden ladder to the first floor.

Su Xian was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "As expected, he is indeed the number one killer of the inner guards. He is as light as a swallow, and he didn't even make a creak when he stepped on the worn-out wooden ladder."

Su Xian handed all the big and small bags in his hand to Yang Zhilan. When she couldn't hold them anymore, he hung them directly on her body.

Yang Zhilan remained motionless and expressionless.

Su Xian saw her staring at the oil paper bag she was wearing for several times, and smiled: "These are the food and drinks I packed from a big restaurant! I wanted to take you out for a big meal, but it's not convenient for you to go out..."

Yang Zhilan listened to his chatter quietly. In fact, what she was wondering about was——

Didn't you say you were going to buy her a bedding this morning?Why are you missing?

It's just that Yang Zhilan didn't say much and didn't ask.

The two of them went up to the second floor and came to the study. They took out the wine and food from the oil paper bags and placed them on the desk one by one. The two of them sat opposite each other.

After a while, the study room was full of delicious food, and the food and wine were still warm, making people excited.

Su Xian saw Yang Zhilan's throat moving slightly and knew that she was hungry, but for some reason, she still "held up her airs" and sat opposite her like a wooden sculpture.

"There is nothing wrong with the county government team." Su Xian did not ask her to eat. As he said this, he took out two small oil paper bags and put them on the table.

Yang Zhilan didn't say anything.

"The 1000 taels offered by Uncle Shi will be received at the latest tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Su Xian slowly dismantled the small oil paper bag and said with a smile: "Your contribution is also part of this. I decided to give you half, 500 taels!"

Yang Zhilan remained motionless.

Su Xian nodded and said, "Just treat it as your acquiescence."

At this time, Su Xian had opened the first small oil-paper package, and a strong odor spread wildly, covering up the aroma of vegetables in the room, leaving it full of stench.

Yang Zhilan's brows trembled slightly, and then returned to normal.

Su Xian handed this stinky tofu to her, and said with a narrow smile, "Come here, this is my stinky tofu. It has a special flavor, you must try it!"
