This Second Male Lead Has Something Special

The Su family made two plates of bayberry cakes.

The taste was sour and sweet. Eating one on such a hot day was really appetizing.

Each bayberry cake was made very small and specially carved into the shape of a flower. It looked very beautiful and I couldn't bear to eat it when I held it in my hand.

It looked exquisite and the price was not high.

Two pieces for three cents and three pieces for five cents.

When the Su family man took it to the town, it opened in a short time and the business was getting better and better.

Bi Qiao also went to the town. Seeing that the business was getting better, she suggested to go to the surrounding area to have a look.

"It's a rare opportunity to come here, so let's go for a walk." Grandma Su followed her because she was worried. She put all the money she collected in her pocket. After thinking for a while, she took out five copper coins from her pocket and said, "Let Lin go with you. Although the town is lively, there are many petty thieves. It's more reassuring to have someone with you."

"Don't worry, grandma, I will definitely take good care of Bi Qiao." Su Lin was of course happy to do so. He hadn't been to the town for a walk before, and even his original body had rarely been here, so he didn't have much impression of the town.

So, the two began to stroll around.

The town was really lively. Huluo Town was not like an ordinary town. There was a big lake on one side, and the lake was not far down, and you could directly enter the coastal town.

Big ships couldn't come in, but small boats docked at the pier every day.

As long as there were many ships coming and going, Huluo Town would definitely become prosperous.

The lakeside pier had a fishy smell. Su Lin was quite used to this slight fishy smell. He raised his head slightly and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Are you hungry?" Bi Qiao took out the copper coins her grandma gave her, "Do you want to buy a bun?"

There was a bun shop next to it, and the steaming buns were fragrant with meat when the wind blew over.

My stomach was growling.

I really have to get rich, otherwise it would be hard to eat a meat bun.

Su Lin glanced at her and walked to the bun shop.

"Do you want a bun? Palm-sized meat buns, three cents each." The bun shop owner lifted the white cloth, and the meat buns in the steamer were big, and two would fill me up.

Su Lin took out six cents from under his belt, "Two."

"Okay!" The bun shop owner smiled and squinted his eyes, picked two and handed them over.

Bi Qiao was curious, "Where did you get the copper coins?"

Su Lin first opened his mouth and took a bite of the meat bun, and shivered with the heat, and responded vaguely: "Thanks to you."

Bi Qiao tilted his head in confusion, and didn't even bother to eat the meat bun.

Thanks to her?

It's definitely not because of the bayberry cake. The bayberry cake is being sold, and the money can't go to Su Lin.

"Didn't you take me to the grove? Uncle Su Shun stuffed me with ten cents to shut me up." Su Lin said as half of the meat bun went into his stomach.

Sure enough, eating when hungry tastes good. He has experienced so many small worlds, and the most delicious meat bun he has ever eaten is this one in his hand.

Bi Qiao raised his eyebrows, "I didn't take you there, you followed me."

Su Lin smiled at her, said nothing, and continued to eat the meat bun.

After eating, he didn't continue to follow her words, but raised his chin to indicate, "Don't you want to eat? If you don't want to eat, give it to me, I'm not full yet."

"..." Bi Qiao opened her mouth wide and took a bite, "hiss!!"

He was so hot that he sucked in air, but he couldn't bear to spit it out. He still swallowed it into his stomach with a grin.

Su Lin looked at her facial features flying and couldn't help but be silent.

Could it be that he looked so hideous when he ate the bun just now?

After eating a meat bun, the two of them were not full but not hungry.

After eating the meat bun, Bi Qiao did not continue to ask Su Lin why he said that.

In fact, it was obvious that Su Lin had already given her a reply.

Obviously, this person was not the original "Su Lin". As for where he came from, he was unwilling to say, but he told her directly that he saw her difference.

I hate people who hide what they say the most.

It's a pity that the other party is her nominal fiancé. Even if she hates him, she can't beat him up directly. But if there is no chance now, there will always be a chance in the future.

Su Lin doesn't know what she thinks.

The two didn't talk much in the following time.

With some purpose, they walked around the whole town and also found out some news.

When they returned to the small street again, there were only a few bayberry cakes left on the stall of the Su family.

The Su family members were a little excited at this time.

They brought a total of 100 bayberry cakes this time. Even if there were still seven or eight left, it would be about 130 or 140 copper coins in their account.

The cost was calculated before leaving.

The main ingredients were picked from the fields not far from the foot of the mountain. With the addition of other ingredients, it cost about thirty coins to make a hundred bayberry cakes.

That is, in just a short time, they earned a hundred coins!

Cakes are so profitable?

No wonder, the widow Chen's family has been buying things back to the village these days. It seems that they really make a lot of money from cakes.

Yin Huan really made a lot of money during this period.

When she left the village, the silver notes and silver she brought with her added up to about seventy or eighty taels.

In addition to selling cakes, she also sold a few recipes.

For her, it would be no mistake to bring more silver when she goes out.

Sure enough.

When Yin Huan arrived in the town, she was shocked by the prosperity in front of her.

After entering the city gate, she tried her best to make herself look like a country bumpkin.

But the look of wanting to see but holding back attracted the attention of people around her.

Fortunately, the town was well managed and nothing bad happened.

We walked all the way to the inn, first booked a room, and then had a good meal. Just these two things cost more than three taels of silver.

It’s really worth it...

"Sir, would you like to serve you a pot of tea?" The waiter saw that the guest was not leaving, so he stepped forward to give her some water.

Yin Huan nodded and asked, "Let me ask you something. Do you know that there is a family named Zhou in Zaoguo Lane in the south of the city?"

"Oh, Zaoguo Lane is not small." The waiter smiled.

Yin Huan hesitated, took out half a tael of silver and put it on the table.

The waiter immediately took it over and stuffed it into his pocket while saying, "Sir, you have asked the right person. My home is not far from Zaoguo Lane, and I happen to know this family named Zhou. What do you want to know about? Just ask. Just ask me.”

"Did their family buy a girl half a year ago?"

"Yes, the Zhou family's son had an accident before. He went to some doctors and they said it would be difficult to conceive again. If he happened to find a suitable girl, he adopted her," the waiter said.

Everyone on their side knows this.

I don’t know whether the Zhou family’s son is unlucky or lucky.

The reason why something happened was because I accidentally bumped into a young man from an aristocratic family in the town, and I lost a lot of money at that time.

That money made the Zhou family rich.

Not only did I buy a house, my life was getting better and better.

It's a pity that after a good man, he didn't have any children.

Some people knew about it and wanted to 'give' a child to the Zhou family. Just half a year ago, the Zhou family had a girl.

The waiter continued: "The Zhou family are all kind-hearted, and they are very kind to that girl. She was skinny and skinny when she was delivered to her, but now she has put on a lot of flesh, and she looks very happy."

Yin Huan disagreed.

No matter how good it is, what's the use?

In a few years, the Zhou family will be involved in a dispute, and no one will be able to save them. If it weren't for Zhu Siming's fate, he wouldn't have escaped and happened to meet Su Boyan who was taking the exam.

Su Boyan took pity on her, helped her deal with the bullies, and placed her well in the local area.

After arriving in Beijing for a while, I found out that the girl who was rescued was the legitimate daughter of the Hou family who was lost more than ten years ago.

Because of this kindness, the Hou Mansion often stood by Su Boyan in the court and gave him a lot of help.

Seeing such a big favor.

Of course Yin Huan doesn't want to miss it.

She came here this time to take Zhu Si back and raise her for a few years to cultivate the relationship between them.

When she goes to Beijing, she will help Zhu Si recognize her ancestor and return to the clan. Will the Hou Mansion owe her a favor?

More than Zhusi.

The one I currently have at home is in a similar situation.

Grab one in each hand for greater security.

"Sir, I wonder what business you have with the Zhou family?" The waiter was curious.

Yin Huan ignored him and waved him away.

After drinking a cup of tea, he got up and headed towards Zaoguo Lane.

The Zhou family's address was easy to find. After a while, Yin Huan stood in front of the door of a house and knocked on the door.

After a while, a middle-aged woman came out.

She looked at the person in front of the door curiously and asked, "Who are you?"

Yin Huan said directly, "Auntie, I am Zhu Si's family."

This sentence was equivalent to a bolt from the blue for the Zhou family.

As the waiter said, they really raised Zhu Si as their own daughter and never treated her badly.

With such care, he obviously regards her as one of his family members.

Living a good life, who knew that a member of Zhu Si's family would suddenly appear?

"Did we make a mistake? When we adopted Zhu Si, the other party promised that her family would be gone."

The Zhou family wants to take a child back, and they really intend to keep it forever.

In order to prevent the child's family from looking for him, they inquired before adopting him. They found out that Zhu Si had no father or mother, and no brothers or sisters at home.

If they didn't consider it, the child might not survive the winter.

Seeing how pitiful the child was, they spent money to get it back.

"Yes, we have also been to Zhusi Village to make sure what the man said is true."

"Why do you say that Zhu Si is your child?"

"Go, go, you must have made a mistake, get out quickly."

Several people in the Zhou family suddenly became anxious and thought about letting people leave.

"Uncle and aunt, I am really Zhu Si's sister." Yin Huan said, tears streaming down her face, and she choked: "Last year, my family had no food to eat, so my family sent my sister out without telling me. She is not from that village at all. The child was bought by a middleman from the elders of the family. "

Yin Huan came prepared and had already made up his excuse.

In her words, Zhu Si was sold by her grandparents without telling her. Because of this, her father passed away in anger, and her mother took her to live separately.

I have been inquiring about my sister for the past six months.

In addition, the family had done some business a few days ago, and the road was quite wide. I didn't expect to find out the whereabouts of my sister. I came here with the intention of taking my sister back.

Seeing her tearful expression, the Zhou family couldn't help but feel a little moved.

They were originally kind-hearted and honest people, but it was hard to kick them out all of a sudden.

Aunt Zhou was still a little doubtful, "How are you so sure that Zhu Si is your sister?"

"Of course I'm sure." Yin Huan said with certainty.

Zhu Si had a high fever after the loss. She had forgotten everything about her childhood. She had no idea about her life experience.

Wasn't that just made up by her?

What's more, she had a piece of evidence in her hand, "Does Zhu Si have a butterfly birthmark under her waist? There is also a mark under her calf, which was left by an injury when she was a child."

This completely dispelled the doubts in the hearts of the Zhou family.

Only family members know whether a girl has a birthmark or not, and outsiders absolutely cannot know.

Could it be that the person in front of her is really Zhu Si's sister?

"You can't tell me about this alone. I have to go and find out." Uncle Zhou said in a muffled voice.

"That's what I should do." Yin Huan nodded quickly, and she said, "But can you please go and find out as soon as possible? My mother is missing her and is waiting for me to take my sister back."

Uncle Zhou went out to find out immediately without Yin Huan saying anything more.

Yin Huan didn't stay for long, and didn't even see Zhu Si's people. It was not until the next day that she came to the Zhou family again with a lot of things.

This time, the Zhou family didn't stop her.

Uncle Zhou even sat at the door with a dry cigarette, looking very silent.

It seems that they did find out something.

Zhu Si was originally sold to the village, and the villagers made up a story about her parents' death and sold her to the Zhou family.

This just matched what Yin Huan said.

When Yin Huan said he wanted to take her home, the Zhou family had no reason to refuse, and they never thought that the person in front of them was a liar.

First of all, the birthmarks and marks Yin Huan said were indeed real.

When Yin Huan came to the house for the second time, he took out fifty taels of silver to thank them for their kindness to Zhu Si in the past six months.

If he was really a liar, how could he take out fifty taels of silver?

The Zhou family accepted the silver.

However, before Zhu Si left, Aunt Zhou stuffed the silver into Zhu Si's purse, holding back tears and admonishing, "Hide this silver, with silver on your side, it will be easier to solve any problems. I don't know if we can meet again after this trip. Mother... Auntie hopes that you will live a good life in the future."

Don't say that the Zhou family was confused.

As the person involved, Zhu Si was also a little confused.

But at this time she was still too young, she couldn't remember the past, and she knew she was not the daughter of the Zhou family.

Although her parents were very good to her, she still yearned for her biological parents.

Hearing that her sister came from so far away, she couldn't help thinking that her sister must like her, so she was willing to take her home.

"Mom, I will definitely come back to see you when I have the chance."

She had to go home, but Zhu Si couldn't bear to leave the Zhou family.

Before leaving with her sister, she secretly stuffed the fifty taels of silver under her mother's pillow.

It took more than ten days to go back and forth.

One person went, two people returned.

After entering the village, Zhu Si felt that everything in front of her was very strange. Although she had no previous memories, she would sometimes recall some of them in her dreams.

But these were completely different from what was in front of her.

Zhu Si thought at first that maybe she remembered it wrong.

But when she met Widow Chen, her expectation was completely cold.

Widow Chen didn't like the child she brought in at all. With Yin Huan around, the family really didn't lack money. Not to mention raising one person, they could even raise ten more.

But she just didn't like it. Why did she raise so many children for no reason?

One child was enough for the family, but Yin Huan came all the way to bring another one back. I really don't know what she was thinking.

Widow Chen's dislike was clearly shown.

Zhu Si saw it at a glance, and the smile on her face instantly froze. She couldn't understand why her mother didn't like her?

If she didn't like her, why would her sister come all the way to pick her up?

"Don't pay attention to her. My sister has arranged a room for you. Do you want to go and see it?" Yin Huan didn't take it seriously.

If Widow Chen doesn't like it, then she doesn't like it. At that time, Zhu Si will only think of her goodness and will not share the benefits she gets with others.

Just as she was about to take her to see the room, Widow Chen suddenly came back and complained, "You don't know how hateful the Su family is. They actually learned to sell cakes from you. They have been running to the town every day these days. I'm afraid they have made a lot of money."

Yin Huan didn't bother to take people into the room. She frowned, "What kind of cakes do they sell?"

"They say it's some kind of bayberry cake. It's pretty good. Many people are willing to buy one to try it." Widow Chen was a little anxious, "Will they take away all the business?"

"Not really." Yin Huan didn't worry about the business.

There are so many people coming and going on the dock. As long as the cakes are novel, there will always be people willing to spend money, especially foreign merchants. If she sells the cake recipe, many merchants are willing to buy it with silver.

But what she is worried about is why the Su family started selling cakes?

This never happened in the novel.

Yin Huan especially likes this imperial examination article. She has read it over and over again for several times. She probably remembers the content. Otherwise, she wouldn't remember where Zhu Si is and personally take her back.

Was it because of her that the plot was stirred up?

Or...

Yin Huan hurriedly asked, "Whose idea was it for the Su family to sell cakes?"

"Who else could it be? It was their child bride. They said she was brought here from home when she was young. I don't know what her family does." Widow Chen pursed her lips. The Su family was so lucky that they picked up someone so useful. Unlike the two in her family, they were useless except for eating.

She looks better than the children from farm families.

But what's the use of being good-looking?

She's not as good-looking as working at this age.

"Child bride? Bi Qiao?" Yin Huan remembered this person.

She was the little girl picked up by Su Jianyi.

Could it be that this Bi Qiao also has other identities?

Yin Huan thought about it and it was really possible.

Because she remembered that many people had criticized this imperial examination article, and there was a setting in it that was too outrageous.

That is, there were too many children lost by the powerful and wealthy families, and the male protagonist would just run into one casually, and therefore many powerful and wealthy families owed favors.

Readers even laughed at the male protagonist's golden finger for picking up children.

Just like the two picked up by her family, they all had great backgrounds.

Maybe Bi Qiao also had this kind of background.

Ordinary people can't eat such exquisite cakes, and they can also know the cake recipes. They are either businessmen doing this kind of business, or they have a better background.

No matter which point, they must be people who are not short of money.

Thinking of this, Yin Huan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At first, she was worried that Bi Qiao had the same origin as her.

Two book-crossers came for one imperial examination essay, which was not what she wanted to see.

Yin Huan thought that if there was a chance, she could have a good contact with the other party. If it was really the same as what she thought, then she could completely save Bi Qiao from the Su family, and then she could get a favor for free.

After all, no one likes to be a child bride.

When Yin Huan and her daughter were talking, they completely ignored Zhu Si.

Her yearning heart cooled down unconsciously.

She found that this place was completely different from what she imagined, and even made her feel scared. She wanted to go back to her parents immediately.

When she was thinking of taking a few steps back, Zhu Si saw a person in the direction of the door corner.

A child about her age.

Is this also her family?
