Chapter 131 Repentance
No matter how Han Chen concealed it, the matter finally reached Su Tang's ears. Xia Mo looked at his girl angrily, and complained, "Girl, what's wrong with you? Didn't you listen to the wife of Zhizhou's family? Our young master recently got acquainted with a girl who sells singing, and gave her a purse? Did you hear that he gave the purse you embroidered to another woman? I said that day you asked him why he disappeared. The purse, but he only said that he didn’t know when it was lost, it was clearly a lie to lie to you, you..."

Dong Zhi tugged at her sleeves and gave her a wink to signal her to stop talking, but she refused to listen and insisted on waking up her own girl.Seeing that Dongzhi couldn't stop her, she hurriedly took her hand, "Didn't you say you want to make a bellyband for Nuanxin? I got a new suit yesterday, come on, I'll show you." Pulled her out forcefully, and then sighed, "Can't you see that our girl is not sober, but doesn't want to mention this matter, she is already sad enough, why don't you stop talking to her endlessly?" Sprinkle salt on your wounds!"

"How can I not know that the girl is sad, but it's not a solution for her to escape blindly. When the young master comes back with three or four concubines, how can the girl escape? Will she be the one who will suffer at that time? Well!" Xia Mo said stomping her feet.

"Anyway, this is the girl's business. Can you stop making so much noise and let the girl be alone for a while." Dong Zhi said and dragged her away.

As soon as the two maids left, Su Tang's ears immediately became much quieter, but once it became so quiet, she began to feel sad, and couldn't help but think of that person, and what Xia Mo said just now, Han Chen, you Really?Have you really forgotten our promise?A few days ago, it was Qiangwei, then Chunlan, and then this singing girl, hmph, men are always like this, there is no one like father and mother who only guard each other to live, which family's men will not change when they have money bad?Not to mention an outstanding man like Han Chen.

These few days when Han Chen went home, he couldn’t see his wife and daughter. When he asked the maids, they said they went to talk to the wife of another family, or they said they went to find the wife of another family to embroider. In short, they just disappeared. silhouette.

A few days later, Han Yu came to find Qi Qingling in person, saying that he was taking her to work, Qi Qingling was naturally very grateful, hurriedly tidied up and followed him away.The carriage stopped in front of a restaurant, Han Yu dismounted, and Qi Qingling got out of the carriage. They saw the words 'Su Ji Restaurant' written on it, and they were puzzled. When they saw Su Jin coming out in person, they became even more confused. Confused, "This is the Su family's restaurant? Didn't your elder brother tell me to go to your embroidery workshop?"

Han Yu looked at Su Jin, and Su Jin smiled and took Qi Qingling's hand, "Sister Qingling, I was wrong before, I admit that I deliberately angered you that day, now I know that you are a clean-spirited person." Girl, you are not like those messy people. I heard that you were going to work in the embroidery workshop of Han Yu’s house, so I went to her. There is an inn in the yard behind our restaurant, and there are not many people there, but there is no one to take care of it. , when you come here, you are only responsible for collecting cash and doing the calculations. I know you are literate, and now it is hard to find literate people, so I want to ask you what you mean. I will definitely not give you less salary. How about three taels of silver?"

Su Jin's face was sincere, and her words of apology were serious. Qi Qingling was not that narrow-minded woman. Seeing her like this, she no longer cared about it. Instead, she took her hand, "I know you want to help I, I thank you, I come to work with you, but the monthly payment is a bit more, two taels of silver a month is enough."

The wages in Suzaku City are higher than those in Qingshi Town. The average person in Qingshi Town is less than one tael a month, but in Suzaku City it is nearly two taels. The monthly salary Su Jin gave her is too high. Shoulu, she couldn't just accept it like that.

"Don't refuse, I still haven't finished talking, you go in with me and have a look, and I will tell you as you go." Su Zhen took her hand and walked in, crossed the restaurant and entered the small courtyard behind , and then through the circular arch, is Suji's small inn, most of the people living here are guests who come to the restaurant to eat and drink.

"There are only a few maids here, who are responsible for packing up the items in the guest room. As for you, after you come, you will be responsible for watching them, collecting money and keeping accounts. Also, I want to ask my aunt to help take care of it. You see, These maids are always lazy when no one is watching, so I don’t worry if I ask my aunt to help me watch, I will give less to my aunt, and give two taels of silver, do you think it’s okay?"

The more she spoke, the more obvious the meaning became, Qi Qingling couldn't help but grabbed her hand, "Thank you, Miss Su San."

Su Jin also shook her hand and smiled. Anyway, the inn is indeed short of manpower. It is better to let their mother and daughter do it. It can not only help them, but also cut off the elder brother-in-law. Of course, it is possible that he is not With that kind of nasty thoughts, but it is always good to take precautions before they happen. If a man and a woman get along for a long time, it is inevitable that they will fall in love with each other for a long time.

When Han Chen found Qi's house a few days later, he found that the house was empty and asked Han Yu, but Han Yu said that their mother and daughter had gone to work in Su Ji, and Han Chen choked there, unable to swallow. Can't spit it out.It's not that he doesn't want their mother and daughter to have contact with people from the Su family, it's just that Tang'er probably already knows about his relationship with Qi Qingling. Isn't it too coincidental that their mother and daughter went to the Su family at this time?So when he got home, he personally went to the wife's house in the next yard to find Su Tang. After seeing her for a few days, she lost a lot of weight and paled a lot.

As soon as his heart softened, he couldn't help but stepped forward and stroked her face, "Tang'er, you've lost weight."

Su Tang's lips moved, but he didn't say anything, he just turned his face away hastily, and it took him a while to find his own voice, "Thank you, Eldest Young Master, for your concern, I'm fine, it's just that I haven't slept well these days. "As he spoke, he called Yingchun to come in, "Is the girl asleep? Go and tell Ding Xiang that you must take care of the girl carefully. She has been coughing for the past two days. Remember to decoct the medicine prescribed by the doctor for her."

Yingchun went down, Su Tang turned around and sat down on the armchair, and called Dongzhi to come in, "The flower pattern you drew yesterday is very beautiful, Mrs. Xu liked it very much, and said that she wanted to make clothes for her daughter with that flower pattern, If you have free time, draw a few more good ones..."

Listening to her endless instructions, Han Chen could see that she was hiding from him on purpose, stood up and was about to leave, but before she stepped out, she put her feet back, and waved her hand to let Dongzhi go down. Then he forced Su Tang to look at her, "Did Nuan Xin catch a cold? Did you see the doctor? What did the doctor say?"

Su Tang pushed him away, picked up the teacup and took a sip, with an indifferent expression, "The doctor said it's all right, just drink a few medicines and you'll be fine."

"Then what's the matter with you? Why are you always avoiding me?" Han Chen stared at her closely, "What's wrong with the two of us recently? Why have you become like strangers? Tang'er, what are you doing?" gone?"

What's wrong with me?Su Tang smiled wryly, and bit his lower lip tightly, "I'm fine, but the young master hasn't told me what to do with Qiangwei, and how to arrange Chunlan? If Qiangwei wants to be raised as an aunt, I'd better get rid of it as soon as possible. The house is tidied up, since Chunlan lives in the east wing, let Qiangwei live in the west wing..."

Han Chen stood up suddenly and left without saying a word, without leaving even a shadow of his back, just left like that.

Su Tang's tears burst out suddenly, thinking of the indifference and grievance he had suffered recently, he couldn't stop it anymore.I was crying sadly, when I heard footsteps in the corridor outside, I quickly wiped it with a handkerchief.Just as he was about to ask, Yingchun walked in quickly, "Madam, what's wrong with the young master? Suddenly, the servants called the matchmaker, saying that they wanted to sell both Qiangwei and Chunlan."

"What? Want to sell someone?" Su Tang stood up suddenly, "How can this be possible, no matter what, there is no such precedent in our family." Going to see it, Xia Mo But he insisted on blocking her, "Girl, what are you thinking? Wouldn't it be better for the young master to sell them, I think you'd better leave this matter alone."

Su Tang thought about it and sat down again. What Xia Mo said made sense, it's better for him not to get involved in this matter. It's him who wants to sell it and not himself. What does this matter have to do with him? "Yingchun, go and have a look again, and report back to me if you have anything to do."

Yingchun Ying went again in a hurry. Xia Mo looked at her girl with admiration, and it seemed that her girl had also learned a lot from the pitfalls. It was obvious that she was not as compassionate as before. The third girl said earlier that in the Han family If such a person stays at home, if he doesn't pay attention, he will have to count the money if he is sold.

After more than half an hour, Yingchun just ran in to report back, saying that the matchmaker had taken Qiangwei and Chunlan away, and the two maids were crying and refused to leave, it was the young master who called the servant to drag them away.Just as I was talking, I saw Han Chen lift the curtain and come in. The end of Xia and Yingchun went down very tactfully. Han Chen walked up to Su Tang and grabbed her hand tightly to prevent her from leaving, "I'm sorry, what happened recently It was my fault for a while, and I shouldn’t be angry with you. In fact, I never thought about taking a concubine. I was just angry that you pushed me out, so I told you that I wanted to take a concubine. You know me. Back then When I got married, I said that it is enough to have you alone in this life. At first, I thought that it would be normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but after these few days, I realized that I only want you alone Man, those other women are not what I want."

Han Chen spoke seriously, and Su Tang was also moved, but when she thought of that person, she turned her back again, "Then, what is Qi Qingling to you?"
