Tibetan Sea Pearl

Chapter 43 Toad wants to eat swan meat

Liu Jiang's wife asked Second Miss Su to accompany her by name, but Lin Cheng couldn't tell the truth, that was Liu Jiang's wife, and I don't know how many people wanted her life.

"A request? Let me think about it." Su Yue rested her chin on her hands, "There really is one, and when it's done, reward me with a pack of blue and white paint."

Lin Chenggang took a sip of tea and almost spit it out. Did he shoot himself in the foot with a rock? At this time, the blue and white paint is more expensive than gold. Not to mention expensive, it is still out of stock. I don’t know if Mr. Zheng still has it. stock?

Su Yue got up, "Master Lin, if there is nothing else, then I'll go back first."

Lin Cheng was so depressed that he didn't speak.

"Then I'm leaving." Su Yue turned to look at him.

"Send off Second Miss Su." Lin Cheng almost squeezed these words through his teeth.

Yunshan came to lead the people and walked out along the covered bridge built on the lotus pond.

Su Yue asked in a low voice, "Is there a back door?" She really couldn't bear the fiery enthusiasm of Mrs. Lin's mansion, and every time she entered the mansion, she felt uncomfortable.

Lin Cheng thought he had heard it wrong, if he didn't go through the good door, why would he go through the back door?

"Back door?" Yun Shan also thought he had heard wrong.

"Going out from the gate, you have to go through the Chaoshou verandah. It takes a long way to go around. If there is a back door, I think it may be closer."

"Yes, why not? Miss Su Er wants to go through the back door, if there is no one, I have to make one for you."

What do you mean Second Miss Su wants to go through the back door?Su Yue glared at Yunshan.

"Don't be angry."

Coming out of the back garden is the back door, which leads directly to Osmanthus Alley.

Not long after returning to Su's house, Mr. Lin's staff came to invite Su Yuanshan to speak in the mansion.

It was the first time Su Yuanshan went to the prefect's mansion, and he didn't know what the prefect Lin wanted to see him for, so he changed into a new blue straight suit.

After returning from the Lin Mansion, he talked with Wang about the matter entrusted by the prefect Lin.

Wang was reluctant to part with her daughter, "Ah Yue has never been away from me for such a long time. The friend from the prefect Lin went to Beijing, and it took several months to go back and forth."

"You are a woman with little knowledge. This is the prefect of Lin. Prefect Lin asked us to do something. How can we not agree? Prefect Lin said for at most a month, and Ayue wanted to come back halfway, so he would send someone to send Ayue back. "

After Lin Zhifu took office, he repaired the river embankment, opened canals to irrigate the farmers' crops, and recently formed a naval division. This is like a reassurance for the people in the city. favor.

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I just said it casually, the prefect Lin begged us to do something, no matter what, we have to give face to the prefect Lin."

"Prefect Lin said that we will leave in three days. In the next few days, you should prepare well."

"You don't need to order these things from the master. I know that. Su Yue is going out to meet guests this time. I thought about making two new sets of clothes and a new look. I also brought all the things that Ah Yue used. For a long time, let Hong Jiao go with her, so that the two of them can take care of each other."

On the second day, Mrs. Wang took Su Yue to Caiyunfang to make two sets of summer shirts, went to Desheng Yinlou for a face-lift, and went to Jishengtang to buy some commonly used medicines and herbal tea recipes for drinking. Pills for summer heat, and some prescriptions for common symptoms such as diarrhea and loss of appetite, and ordered Hongjiao to pack Su Yue's usual things in a box.

Sun Yinglian came to visit and saw the large and small cages in Su Yue's room, she was shocked, "Are you going to travel far away?"

"I'm going to my grandmother's house. My grandmother is getting old and misses her grandchildren. In addition, the weather is so hot that she can't eat. A few days ago, I asked someone to bring a letter to me. I want my granddaughter to spend some time with her." Su Yue blinked. Follow Su Yuanshan's instructions.

After Su Yuanshan came back from the Lin Mansion, he said that the prefect Lin had told him that the matter should not be announced, so he discussed with the Wang family. If someone asked where Su Yue had gone, he would say that Su Yue went back to her grandmother's house to accompany her to spend the summer with her.

Wang's natal family is out of the city, in the countryside, very remote.

Sun Yinglian couldn't bear Su Yue, "When will you come back? If you leave, no one will play with me."

"Go back and live for more than a month and come back."

Hong Jiao was packing up the cages, the room was in a mess, Su Yue found a clean place, and asked Sun Yinglian to sit by the bed.

The playmates who grew up together since she was a child, leaving her to go far away, Sun Yinglian felt very uncomfortable, "The last time sister Zhou came to eat chicken, she said that she was going to have a lotus feast. If you leave, I will definitely not be able to participate in the lotus feast." .”

"Sister Zhou, I've already delivered the message." Su Yue took Sun Yinglian's arm, and comforted her, "She recently followed the formation envoy's wife to learn housekeeping. open up."

Sun Yinglian also thinks so.

Su Yue thought that she was going to stay in the farm for a while, and Zhou Yao had to go over to tell what happened, so yesterday she took Hongjiao to the mansion of the deployment envoy, and passed a post to the concierge.

When I first arrived at the Chuihua Gate, I saw a well-dressed woman standing politely beside the Chuihua Gate, and Madam Wu from the Mansion of the Formation Envoy was talking to someone, "I accept the post first, and I will go and get it for you now." Madam, please go back, Madam."

The old woman was still a little worried, "It's Mrs. Li's birthday, please set up an array to make Mrs. Madam look good."

Whether the post is sent or not is a matter for slaves, and whether to go or not is a matter for wives and wives.Seeing that the other party was not interested, Mammy Wu almost wanted to throw the post back, "If mammy says it, I will definitely bring it with me, mammy, please go back."

The old woman was still standing at the door, "This time it's Mrs. Tai's [-]th birthday. It's a whole birthday. My wife, Mrs. Li, hired a cook who is very good at cooking Hunan cuisine. She set up a stage in the mansion and is going to ask the German music class to sing three songs." Tianxi..."

The Deyin troupe is the best opera troupe in Guangzhou. Su Yue deliberately slowed down and listened for a while.

"Mother, please go back!" Mother Wu turned around and closed the door before anyone could finish speaking.

The wife of the formation envoy didn't like to have too close contacts with the merchants, and was worried that it would be bad for the reputation of the formation envoy. Seeing that it was a post from the Li family, she transferred it and asked Nanny Wu to put it in a drawer.

"If Madam doesn't want to go, just find a reason to dismiss it on Madam Li Tai's birthday." Nanny Wu said while accepting the post.

"Ms. Li has been too diligent lately." The arrangement made the lady think of the two big boxes of red bean cakes that Mrs. Li sent last time.

Grandma Wu smiled, "Businessmen are very good at business. I see that the businessmen in Guangzhou are much smarter than those in the capital. It's no wonder that there are so many rich and big merchants in Guangzhou."

Guangzhou is rich and prosperous, what Madam Wu said is not unreasonable, the arrangement makes the wife always feel that Mrs. Li has something to ask for, and she doesn't want to associate with Li's family.

On the way to meet Zhou Yao, Su Yue thought that the Deyin class was very good at singing flower drum operas. Mrs. Li not only invited the Deyin class, but also hired a cook who could cook Hunan cuisine. Mrs. Li clearly followed the order of the envoy's wife Like to act.

Mrs. Li was unyielding and gave red bean cakes last time, but this time she sent a post directly.

Su Yue thought about the second son of Li, and a thought popped up, Mrs. Li wanted to marry Zhou Yao for her second son.

"It's really a toad who wants to eat swan meat, and the second son of the Li family also thinks about the formation of the envoy's daughter?" Su Yue went to the backyard indignantly.

Beside the rockery in Taihu Lake, two women waited with their heads down for Zhou Yao to show them off. Seeing Su Yue coming, Zhou Yao told the women below to make a long story short.

"Sister Zhou." Seeing that Zhou Yao was done, Su Yue ran over.

Zhou Yao was surprised that Su Yue was able to find her at the mansion.

Su Yue explained her purpose of coming, saying that she was going to live at her grandmother's house for a while, so she came here to say goodbye.

"I'm going to finish my busy days and hold a lotus feast." Zhou Yao said with some regret.

"I see you've been very busy recently, I don't know if the lotus feast will be held yet." Su Yue joked with others.

Zhou Yao felt that the side of the rockery was not a place to talk, so he invited Su Yue to talk in the boudoir at the back.

Su Yue thought about it carefully. She originally wanted to hide the fact that the second son of Li in Zhenhai Lou ordered the servant to steal Zhou Yao's jewelry, and she didn't want Zhou Yao to know about it, but what Mrs. Li did later was unexpected. Unexpectedly, the development of the matter exceeded her imagination. If Zhou Yao really married the second son of Li, it would be over. Su Yue decided to tell Zhou Yao what happened in Zhenhai Tower.

Zhou Yao's eyes widened after hearing this, "I thought my hairpin just fell on the wooden ladder of Zhenhai Tower, but I didn't expect the Second Master Li to be such a scoundrel that he could do such a thing."

Fortunately, Su Yong got back the hairpin in time, and lost the hairpin, this matter is big or small, even though Zhou Yao was calm at the time, she was more nervous than anyone else.

Zhou Yao was very moved when she heard the words, took Su Yue's hand, and softly called "Ah Yue", instead of politely calling "Sister Su" as usual.

Su Yue blinked her big eyes and decided to help Zhou Yao, "The Li family is too flattering on herself, she dares to open a dyeing workshop if you give her three points of color, you just tell the madam about it, you don't need to do the rest Come out."

After Su Yue left, Zhou Yao went to the main room, threw herself into the arms of the envoy's wife, and cried out, "The Li family doesn't even look in the mirror, and they think it's great to have a few stinky money. There's plenty of money."

How can the wife of the formation envoy be willing to let her daughter be wronged, "What's the matter?"

"The second son of the Li family has done such a thing, and their Li family dares to come to deliver red bean cakes." Zhou Yao's tears fell down, and he told the wife what happened.

The sound was twitching, intermittent, and the formation made the lady feel even more distressed when she heard it. She turned around and opened the drawer beside the table, took out the gilded post inside, tore it into pieces, and called out to Wu Mammy came in, "If anyone from the Li family comes from now on, just send them out to me."
