Dingguo

Chapter 48

Su Yi also roughly understood the meaning of this, and after thinking about it, Su San said: "So, I'm also a little curious about this 'golden fish'; I'm also curious, what kind of sauce is there? Such a unique taste, even the two elders can't forget it.【】If the third brother has more, you might as well get some, so that the eldest brother and the second elder can taste it, too?"

This is considered a request, so he chuckled, "Brother wants to taste it, of course that's fine. I'll bring some when I go back home later, and I'll bring some for my brother. But if Mr. Zhou asks for a few jars as soon as he opens his mouth, there are none." There are only a few jars in total, how can there be so many to give away? A letter came from the store, because of the lack of preparation, I have to go to Ningyuan to borrow some first. It can’t be justified, but it must be donated. Even if there are extra sauces, I have to share some with my family and my younger brother’s father-in-law. Even if there are surpluses, I’m afraid there won’t be much..."

Su Yi felt a little embarrassed now... Su San laughed again, "However, since brother has opened his mouth, no matter what, we should share some... Yu'er, come here... All the sauces are yours Did you make it yourself? How much is there? Only you know best, tell me, except the ones in the store, the ones that are deducted from the mansion, and the ones from Li’s mansion, can you even order them out?"

He waved at Yu'er... As he spoke slowly, he gave the little girl a wink... Yu'er had heard about this for a long time.She was already clever, and she was only thinking about her master, so she had noticed the young master's attitude early on. Even if the young master didn't give her that wink, she knew what to do.

Then he came over, bowed to everyone, and said to Old Zhou: "Mr. Zhou, the maidservant did make some spares, but the quantity is not many, and there are absolutely no jars... To be more even, this house The ones in the store and the ones in the Li’s house are indispensable. Instead, some can be deducted from the part of the store that needs to be donated... It’s okay to barely spare a small jar..."

"Oh, it's good to have a jar..." Mr. Zhou said with a chuckle.

"The young master once said that if outsiders want to take it, he is not willing to sell it for 50 taels a jar. Even if he comes to get it from the store, it is not counted as materials, and he has to give Yu'er 20 taels of manual money. Since Mr. Zhou is a good friend of the young master Well, it's not easy for Yu'er to charge too much silver, so the old man will give you 18 taels... This is Yu'er's handmade money..."

"Ah..." Old man Zhou was stunned for a moment... Su San nodded slightly, very satisfied with Yu'er's performance.It provoked Desheng to laugh all the time... Su Yi also smiled wryly, but I don't know where Su San got such a little girl, who speaks without mentioning anything, and knows how to handle people, cooperates with her master, and asks outsiders for money... Elder Zhou pointed to the tip of Su San's nose and said, "Really, really... Could it be that the 50-year storage of my two jars can't compare to your jar of sauce?"

He chuckled and said, "Mr. Zhou...it's incomparable. Besides, these two jars of old wine, but you gave it to my eldest brother, what has it to do with Ning Yuan? Besides, I didn't make the sauce, but Yu'er I made it by myself, and it is reasonable to charge some manual fees, didn't I give you a discount..."

"You... I won't talk to you anymore. Whether I love you or not... It's not rare..." Old Zhou became angry, like a child... He was just making fun of Old Zhou... Seeing Zhou Ji lose his temper, Only then did he say to Yu'er, "Forget it, it's because I didn't get along during this period of time. I was going to send it to the second elder first. Yu'er, after you go back, send the second jar to Mr. Zhou and Mr. Sheng." Well, it’s just a meaning. After a few days, the new sauce will come out, and it will be relaxed. At that time, if the old man wants to eat, he will send more. It’s okay... This handmade money joke, Don't mention it to the second elder in the future..."

"That's about the same..." Elder Zhou also knew that Su San was taking him, but he didn't want to simply hand over the second jar of old wine to Su San, since he already had a handle in his hands, so it was no wonder that he fought back.

Feeling a little annoyed, I had no choice but to vent to Lao Sheng a little bit, "I let you pick up a big deal..."

Gongsun Sheng just laughed lowly, his temperament has decided, he has always been a cheap picker.

Everyone chatted and laughed a few more times in the hall, and waited for the servants to carry the wine jars into the carriage before leaving.

Su Yi came back from this trip very low-key, besides his family member Su Xing, he also brought the family's internal errands with him.On the first day when Su came out of the capital, he and the others rode fast horses. After driving for half a day, they hired a carriage on the road. Otherwise, when they came out of the capital and visited friends on the road, there would be no time in time... The two walked out of the inner city Hall, under the gatehouse in the outer hall, Su Yi's entourage is waiting under the door.Su Xing is an old servant in the family. His father, Su An, served at the mansion when he was an old man.

Su Xing even became Su Yi's book boy when he was still young, and has been following Su Yi since then.

Su San had heard Su Xing mentioned by his family, but he had never seen him before, so he didn't recognize him... "This is the third young master... This is Su Xing... the youngest son of old housekeeper Su An..." Su Yi Pointing at Su Xing, he introduced him.

"Third young master..." Su Xing quickly stepped forward to salute, and looked at Su San with a little curiosity.But I didn't want to understand why the third young master didn't stay at home, but appeared here.

Su Xing is actually not young, he is in his thirties, and he has been running around with Su Yi all these years, and naturally he has never returned home.

He glanced at Su Xing with a smile: he is not tall, with a dark face, shrewd eyes, and a steady momentum in his actions.Having practiced outside these years, Su Xing naturally carried an aura of a high-ranking person. Su Yi probably used Su Xing as his confidant.

He hurriedly stepped forward to support Su Xing who was about to salute, and said with a smile, "They are all from my own family, so there is no need to be so polite."

Seeing his friendly voice, Su Xing was a little moved in his heart.

Su Xing is Su Yi's confidant, so Su Yi never hides from him about Yi Ying's family affairs.He knew no less about Su San than Su Yi.I have long heard that the third young master has a bit of a temper, so he has to go to the brothel to gamble on weekdays.

I thought that even if I met the Third Young Master when I came back this time, the Third Young Master would not treat a servant like myself, but I didn't expect that the legendary Third Young Master was quite different from the Su San in front of me.

Not only is he kind to himself, but he is also affectionate.

In the feudal dynasty system, servants have the least status, and servants of merchant families have even lower status.If it wasn't for Su Xing's parents, who were really forced into desperation, Su Xing's father, Su An, would not have come to the Su family to be a servant.

Fortunately, the Su family treated their servants very well.

Su Xing's father, Su An, had been Mr. Su's long-term follower for decades, and in Mr. Su's generation, he raised Su An to the position of the chief housekeeper.Su Xing's second brother also arranged to help at the counter.Su Xing has followed Su Yi since he was a child. When he was young, he was a playmate. When he was older, he was a book boy. Now he is also Su Yi's housekeeper.Although in the eyes of outsiders, Su Xing and the others are just servants of the Su family, but the Su family has long treated them as their own, and even some relatives cannot match their status in the Su family.

From the desperation of his father's generation to his generation, there is a way out, especially for myself. I have been with the young master these years. I have not seen any scenes or places. Compared with a few brothers, even compared with For most ordinary people, he can be regarded as beautiful.What's more, Su Yi is trying to figure out a way to find some errands for himself in the capital, so as long as he has the opportunity, he can be regarded as completely out of the status of a servant, and can stand on his own.

The benefits given to him by the Su family, Su is good to himself.Su Xing knew all these things in his heart, so occasionally the other Su family couldn't afford them, he also thought of it for the sake of Mr. Su and Su Yi, so he didn't care about them.Unexpectedly, the third young master, who was said to be very naughty, treated others so well.

Seeing Su San's behavior, Su Yi couldn't help nodding.For this alone, the third brother is better than the second brother.
