The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 57: Think less

Su Yanli was taken by Lord Fan to meet many high-ranking officials today. Su Ruojin found that her father was neither proud nor groveling. Except that his eyes were a little brighter than usual, he was still as gentle as jade and calm and calm. Perhaps this This is what a scholar should have!

In the afternoon, we still flew kites. Of course, the one who had the most fun was Su Sanlang, who was eating, drinking and having fun. He was a small person and didn’t have to worry about anything. Of course he had the energy to play!

 It was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that the outing people rushed to Beijing.

Before the spring outing was over, Su Ruojin was so tired that she fell asleep in her father's arms. Her father carried her to the place where the carriage was parked. She met everyone from the Fan family. When Lord Fan saw it, it was true as his grandson said, his The student held her daughter gently and gently, she was really pampering.

With a fatherly smile on his face, he waved to the students who wanted to say hello, meaning to come back when you are tired!

The Su family silently bowed to Master Fan and stepped aside to let them go first.

Unexpectedly, after this retreat, several high-ranking officials were traveling in carriages. Su Yanli held his daughter and stood under the shade of a tree, waiting quietly. His wife stretched out her hands to smooth away her daughter's sweaty hair on her temples. He squatted down slightly and let his wife Enough of.

Cheng Yingzhen smiled and glanced at Su Sanlang who was hugging her. This brat was also tired and fell asleep. She asked Xianggui to wipe his sweat with a towel. She turned around and wiped her eldest son, "An'er, are you tired?" tired?"

Su Dalang shook his head and smiled at his mother, "I'm not tired." It was rare for him to go out to play, and he met a few more friends, which was good.

When Zhao Lan's carriage passed by Su's house, he saw through the window a scene of a loving mother and a filial son. Of course, there was also the crybaby lying on her father's shoulder and sleeping soundly. He didn't look like a young lady's house, and he disdained it. He curled his lips, the carriage passed by, he ate the Su family's barbecue and drank the Su family's milk tea without even saying a polite word. If Su Ruojin had been awake, he would have given him a few big looks.

The footsteps of spring are slowly moving away. Early summer is coming and the weather is getting hotter. Children can no longer play wildly in the alleys all day long. Either after breakfast or after nap, make an appointment with your best friends. Today is not at your house. Just go to his house tomorrow and hide under the corridor or stay in the room to play.

When Mrs. Fan’s housekeeper, Mother Qin, came to visit her again, Su Ruojin happened to be going to Yang Si’s house to play. When she saw her, she exclaimed in her heart, ah, the wait is finally here!

On the surface, Su Ruojin was calm and composed, welcomed Qin's mother in, and asked her mother to come to the main hall to meet the guests.

After returning from the outing, Su Ruojin told her mother Cheng Yingzhen her thoughts and Mrs. Fan's possible cooperation ideas, "Mom, whether Mrs. Fan asks you to come over to talk, or she asks the steward to come over to talk, we will agree."

 Cheng Yingzhen didn’t know much about these things. When her daughter said yes, she nodded, “It’s all up to you.”

I have to listen to her, but you are the one who comes out to deal with people! Su Ruojin intended to teach her mother step by step how to deal with people and how to run a shop in the future.

 But Cheng Yingzhen was very scared, "I have the courage to sit and pretend."

Su Ruojin:…

 Being able to clearly express what she means to her daughter is an advantage. She should not force a social fear in front of others and force her to deal with them. This will cause trouble.

“Okay, mother, just be polite and sit up straight.”

 “Okay.” As long as her daughter doesn’t force her to interact with others, she can still do it by sitting and welcoming guests.

After being polite to Mrs. Su, Qin's mother told Mrs. Su the purpose of her trip, "Our madam said, I won't take your sauce recipe for free." After that, she took out the folded jiaozi from her sleeve pocket and handed it out. …

 As a result, no one came to pick me up.

Xianggui didn’t understand and stood motionless next to Cheng Yingzhen.

Although Mao Ya had stayed in Zheng Guogong's mansion, she was also a rough girl outside the house. She had never experienced such a thing, and she stood beside Su Ruojin in a daze, motionless.

This is different from the cooperation Su Ruojin wanted! What a buyout! So she didn't answer. Qin’s mother: …Is it too little? But you didn’t open it to see how many taels it was and didn’t pick it up. Isn’t that bad?

 The atmosphere was sometimes awkward.

No one spoke. Cheng Yingzhen was very panicked. She felt that it was all her fault. She looked at her daughter beside her nervously, "Ajin..."

Su Ruojin grinned at Qin's mother and said innocently, "As long as Master Fan likes you, how can you ask for Madam's money?" She waved her hand, "No, no, no."

Not only does the master like it, but the wife also wants to use the prescription to make a living in her own restaurant, so of course she has to give money.

Mother Qin was defeated by the little lady, "Not only do you like it, but so many people like this sauce, so my wife is going to take it to the restaurant..." The implication is that anyone can understand it!

"Mrs. Su, look..." Since no one answered, Qin's mother had no choice but to step forward and put the jiaozi on the table beside Mrs. Su, but she was pushed back by Mrs. Su.

Su Ruojin sighed secretly, but with a smile on her face, "Mom, I will give you the recipe for the sauce right away, but our family will not accept the money."

 Forget it, just think of it as a favor!

Mother Qin has not forgotten her wife’s advice that free things are actually the most expensive things. Could it be that Dr. Su knew that his wife was interested in the sauce recipe, so he actually said hello to his wife and daughter in advance?

If the Su family didn't accept money, she would never dare to accept this sauce recipe.

One took the prescription and insisted on giving him money, while the other only gave him the prescription without any money. The two of them were pushing each other back and forth.

“Mrs. Su, if you don’t accept the money, I won’t dare take this recipe back.”

Su Ruojin still pushed the money back, "If Madam insists on thanking me, then I really have something to ask Madam for help."

 “I don’t know what’s wrong?”

Since we can’t cooperate, let’s borrow a piece of land!

"I heard that there is Madam's shop next to Xiangguo Temple. I want to rent a small piece of land in front of Madam's shop and sell barbecue in the evening. Don't worry, it won't conflict with Madam's customer group. People with money and status go to Madam's restaurant. Ordinary people who don’t have money just buy a few skewers and eat them on their spring outing that day.”

In this case, it will not hinder their respective businesses. Mother Qin nodded, "Okay, I will go back and ask Madam for instructions."

Mother Qin returned home with the sauce recipe.

Cheng Yingzhen asked her daughter in confusion, "Didn't you say that Mrs. Fan would cooperate with you?"

Su Ruojin spread her hands and said, "I thought it was too ideal. Now that I think about it, I don't produce anything except sauce recipes. Isn't it too much of an advantage to cooperate with others?"

 “Then Mrs. Yang next door…”

 Say that Mrs. Yang is sincere? She clearly had other ideas in Su Ruojin's hands. Furthermore, there was no official back-and-forth between the two heads of the Yang family and the Su family, so Mrs. Yang had no scruples in cooperating with her.

 But Mrs. Fan is different. She is the head mistress of the Minister of Civil Affairs. If she takes any action, it will directly affect Mr. Fan's future.

 She thought less about it. I haven’t been in business for so many years, so I’m really rusty after all!

However, as a last resort, I wonder if I can set up some barbecue sales at Xiangguo Temple. Summer is coming soon, and there are many people shopping at night to cool off. A night barbecue stall can probably make a lot of money.
