The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 374 Chapter 373 Encounter 2

In early September, the mornings and evenings were cool, and the sun was bright at noon. After lunch, everyone moved to the window to eat and drink tea.

Little Douding Shangguan Suihe was not a noisy person. He stood next to his mother Zhong Wanhui and helped her peel a small orange to eat. His son peeled off a piece and raised his little face and handed it to his mother. He smiled sweetly for her and lowered his head to take it from his son's hand. He took it and sipped it into his mouth, eating happily. The sun shone in through the window lattice and shone on the mother and son, making them very warm.

Su Ruojin sighed with emotion, this child was sent here by God to repay his kindness. Look at Zhong Wanhui, who is not familiar with the world. Although God has deprived her of her IQ, what's the point in living a simple life while avoiding the rules and regulations in a wealthy mansion? Isn't it a blessing?

She was about to get married. From a simple family to a palace with a large population, Su Ruojin suddenly became anxious about getting married.

Zhao Lan and Shangguanyu are different in terms of status and occupation. If it weren't for Su Ruojin, the two would have never crossed paths. At this moment, even if they were sitting together drinking tea, apart from a few polite words at the beginning, there would be nothing to talk about.

But these two didn't realize there was anything wrong with not talking. On the contrary, their thoughts were on the people they cared about.

The young lady was right in front of him and they were about to get married soon. However, the closer the wedding day came, the more Zhao Lan missed the young lady. Even when the two of them were together, he still couldn't stop thinking about her and his eyes were all on her.

Look at the little lady looking at the little Douding, the sun is falling on her, so gentle and demure, her eyes are so soft and approachable. When you see the children, are you thinking about their future children?

What kind of child will he have with his wife? Cuter than Shangguan's children? Or is she a beautiful and naughty little lady like a young lady?

As he thought about it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and he looked in a good mood.

The private room was too quiet, and the waiter at the door thought, could he remind the master that there were people waiting in the private room next door?

"Double stewardship..."

Shuangrui just noticed the boy and was trying to stop him. He had already shouted, so he could only suppress his temper, "What's the matter?"

"Back to the two supervisors, Yingnan County Prince and his wife are still..." Waiting.

Shangguanyu stood up quickly, cupped his hands and said, "Then I won't disturb the prince and the second wife. I'll take my leave first."

Su Ruojin stood up: "Master Shangguan, please take your wife and Ah He to my house to play when you have time."

"Okay." Shangguanyu said goodbye to Su Ruojin, and left the restaurant with his wife and children.

When the Yingnan County Prince and his wife saw Shangguanyu's family leaving, they entered Zhao Lan and Su Ruojin's private room.

"What a coincidence, Zijin."

The hot pot restaurant is Zhao Lan's property. Zhao Lan will come over for dinner at any time. As long as he is interested, he will find out where he is.

Zhao Lan smiled slightly and said, "Please sit down, both of you."

Xie Qingyu and Su Ruojin nodded and sat down respectively.

Zhao Lan and Su Ruojin were childhood sweethearts. They arranged to get married four years ago. Until now, they are about to get married in a month. Zhao Lan no longer has any other little ladies around him. Apart from the servants, there are only two elderly servants around him. It is said that the mother-in-law did not even have adult ceremonies, marriage, etc.

The men felt incredible when they heard this, and the women were all extremely envious after knowing it, and they all sighed that the second wife of the Su family had a good life.

Xie Qingyu tried her best to hide the jealousy in her eyes so as not to lose her composure.

Zhao Lin smiled and greeted, "Shilang Su finally doesn't want to be blamed for dereliction of duty and has rectified his name before the two of you get married. It's really gratifying. Zi Lin is here to congratulate Mrs. Su again."

Here and there are congratulations, but parting is just adding to the trouble! It's better for the couple to go together. If it weren't for the Queen's sake, Su Ruojin wouldn't even want to fake a smile.

Zhao Lan's expression was neither salty nor bland, and he put down the teacup, "Are the food and wine to your liking?"

"The weather is getting cooler, so it's nice to eat something warm."

Even though he didn't say the food was delicious, Zhao Lan smiled slightly and didn't bother to respond. Shuangrui added tea to him, and he continued to drink it without taking the initiative to chat.

The man didn't say anything, and Xie Qingyu continued with a half-smile: "I heard that one month before the wedding, the bride and groom should not meet each other, Su..."

"I miss Ah Jin. I'll take her out to go shopping and have a meal."

Before she could finish her teasing words, Zhao Lan took her over. Everything was his idea.

Xie Qingyu was unwilling to give in as her sleeves covered her pinched white fingers. Why, she was the queen's niece and her status was noble. Why should a daughter of a small official marry better than her? Why...

Zhao Lin didn't seem to notice his wife's emotions, and was smiling. On a September afternoon, he was sitting by the window drinking tea and meeting friends, looking calm and relaxed.

Half an hour later, the two left. Su Ruojin asked in confusion, "Brother Jin, these two couples are..." Shangguanyu came to eat. Su Ruojin thought it was a chance encounter, but she didn't think so.

Zhao Lan looked down the window and saw the couple getting on the carriage one after another. "The son of the head of the Wang family has taken all the blame."

When Su Ruojin heard this, she immediately reacted: "Is the person behind the cannibalization of the shop Zhao Lin or..."

"Two couples are like birds of a feather."

"How many small shops like this have they swallowed up in the past few years?"

"Dozens."

This method is too underhanded.

Su Ruojin shook her head. Because Su Yanli was a local official, she knew that the land, mountains, minerals, etc. of the Dayin Dynasty were annexed by the bureaucrats and landlords. She did not expect that even the small shop under the emperor's feet would be eaten away by the emperor's relatives.

Zhao Lan turned around and stretched out his hand to pull the little lady, "Let's go shopping."

Su Ruojin didn't move.

He thought the young lady was tired, "Take her to the room to rest for a while first?"

Su Ruojin shook his head.

Zhao Lan didn't understand, "Then you are..."

"Brother Jin, you secretly gave me the dowry shop..."

"What are you thinking about!"

Seeing that the young lady was thinking in a wrong way, Shuangrui said quickly, "Back to the second lady, the shop in the master's hands either belongs to the princess or he bought it himself or built it directly. He did not steal anyone else's shop by accident."

Zhao Lan looked aggrieved, and Su Ruojin quickly came over with a smile, "I'm sorry, brother Jin, I shouldn't have thought and guessed..."

Seeing that the master and the young couple were getting tired of each other, Shuangrui quickly took the servant girl out.

There were only two people left in the private room.

Zhao Lan hugged the young lady around his waist and looked at her uninterested look. He rested his chin on her soft head and said, "Zhao Lin has only been in the capital for a short time and has no assets in his hands. He has already endured the huge expenses in the capital." Don’t stop taking action.”

"He is a descendant of the clan. Is it true that no one dares to investigate him?" Su Ruojin knew that any clan, relative, or wealthy family like this did not have all the resources and connections to make money, so what could she do?

Zhao Lan rubbed the little lady's head and comforted her, "These two people came to inquire about me. It seems that they will calm down for a while."

"A period of time?" After that, some small businessmen still suffered.

Zhao Lan lowered his head and said with a smile, "Have you heard a sentence?"

"Um?"

"Always walk by the river..."

"Brother Jin means..."

Zhao Lan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Someone will tell them to restrain themselves."

Instead of stopping, Su Ruojin felt a little regretful, but it was better than letting them act unscrupulously. This was already good.

Su Ruojin calmed down and said, "Brother Jin, where do you want to take him?"

Zhao Lan deliberately let it slip, "What do you think?"
