Chapter 144 Can’t Listen
Pomegranate glanced at Mrs. Bai with a serious face, and quickly pointed to Shen Yi and Su Chunlin, “Back to Master, the eldest son went to Moshi Town that day and ate Guokui at my uncle’s restaurant. He was full of praises and asked my uncle for a cook. However, the pot helmets were not made by our cook. My uncle had no choice but to explain. The eldest son looked unhappy.
No, my uncle asked his servant to invite the master who makes pot helmets today. If the eldest son has anything to say, he can tell Master Shen in person.
Master Shen is a native of Shenjiazhuang, Moshi Town. He is also a famous ferryman on the Daxun River. He is also our uncle's lifesaver. "
Her words clearly explained the relationship between Shen Yi and Ma Xingteng.
Mrs. Bai was very displeased. She glanced at Mr. Bai and said indifferently: "Master, I said at the beginning that the Ma family's small family has no chance to gain a reputation, but you think it's good and you have to marry Rong girl to Ma Xingteng. , look at how this was done, it’s really hilarious!”
Pomegranate's complexion changed slightly.
Su Chunlin was confused, Shen Yi watched the changes quietly.
Madam Bai took a sip of her saliva and sneered: "The young master has grown up with delicacies from the mountains and the sea. What good thing has he never seen? It's just a broken pot helmet. He just thought it was novel and praised it. It doesn't matter if it wasn't made by the Ma family cook. There is No big deal.
You actually went all the way to invite the master who makes pot helmets here, as if we have to do it, isn't it ridiculous? "
Pomegranate was about to defend.
Shen Yi was the first to bow and said: "Madam Yingming, I heard about this yesterday and I felt very baffled. Our pot helmets are well made. Not only in Moshi Town, but also in other towns, we have our stuff. I have never heard of it before. Who is asking for trouble? Since there is a misunderstanding, we will leave first."
"Master Shen?" Shiliu's eyes widened in shock, not expecting that Shen Yi would say this.
Just when she was at a loss, Mr. Bai spoke up, "Master Shen has come a long way. Please rest for a while tonight and let me do my duty as a landlord. It won't be too late to leave tomorrow morning."
I would like to apologize to you for my son-in-law. He just cares too much and makes things complicated. Master Shen, please don't take offense and don't hurt the harmony between you. From now on, your business will continue as usual. hehe"
Mrs. Bai snorted dissatisfiedly, her eyes almost rolled up to the sky.
Mr. Bai didn't pay attention to her, and just asked the boy to take the three of them down to rest.
After walking out of the hall, Shiliu breathed a sigh of relief. When she was far away, she thanked Shen Yi, "I thought the master would be angry just now. Fortunately, Master Shen is smart. With the master's words, the eldest son can't make a fuss about this matter. ”
"You're welcome, Miss Pomegranate." Shen Yi said politely and asked, "We want to meet the Suchuan family, can it be convenient?"
"Convenient and convenient!" Shiliu nodded hurriedly, "You two go to the guest house to rest first, and I will go to the guest house to send a message to you. I will go to the guest house later to give you a letter from my brother."
"Thank you." Shen Yi pulled Su Chunlin away.
Su Chunlin's eyes were not idle along the way, and he whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "Look at this wealthy family, it's just different. I used to go through the back door when I came here, and the furthest point was to the gate of the courtyard. I couldn't see anything. Not.
I thought your home was spacious and bright before, but now compared with the White House, it really doesn’t have much to see. "
Shen Yi paused and pointed at the bluestone floor, "Father-in-law, aside from other things, I can't even get these slate tiles, how can I compare?"
"That's true!"
The two of them entered the guest house chatting. Pomegranate also found out where Cuilan lived.
When the maid returned to the house after dark, she went to look for him and brought some good things with her.
When Cuilan opened the door, Pomegranate was so frightened that she almost screamed, "You, you, you, how did you become like this?"
When Cuilan went to seek refuge with her before, even though she was pregnant with Liujia, she could not hide her beautiful appearance. But now, she looks like a skeleton and looks more than ten years older.
Cuilan quickly tidied up her hair and turned sideways to let Pomegranate in. "Aren't you in Moshi Town? But are you back with Miss Rong?"
It’s not the year or the festival, what are you doing back here?
Cuilan was confused.
Pomegranate didn't hide anything and explained the situation.
Cuilan frowned, "How come I don't know when the eldest young master went to Moshi Town?"
Shiliu's heart tightened and she asked tentatively: "Didn't Suchuan follow the young master? Didn't he tell you?"
Cuilan's face darkened, with a hint of disgust on her face, "Don't mention that family to me, I have nothing to do with them a long time ago!"
"Ah? Why doesn't it matter? Where is your child?" Pomegranate was so shocked that she lost her composure, and her voice became a little excited when she spoke.
Cuilan shook her head, covered her face and cried, "The child was not saved, so the Suchuan family followed Young Master Zhu to the Zhu Mansion. I didn't want to go, so I continued to stay with my master and serve him. The master also wanted me to marry another person in charge of the village. I I didn’t agree, and now my master asked me to comb my hair and be a mother by her side.”
Shiliu was shocked by the news and couldn't recover for a long time, "Why. How did it become like this? Where is the eldest young master? What did the eldest young master say?"
Cuilan gave Pomegranate a strange look, "What else can the young master say?"
Shiliu was shocked to realize that she had leaked something, and quickly made up for it, "I mean, after all, Suchuan has been serving the eldest young master for many years, and the eldest young master just gave up their family so easily?"
Cuilan nodded, "The eldest young master Zhu has promised benefits, but they are just a few servants. How could the eldest young master be reluctant to part with him? My dear sister, what do you think I should do now? The eldest young master is worried because I am willing to go with the Suchuan family. It’s not pleasant, and since Mr. Zhu hates me, she doesn’t want to see me anymore.”
"Then let's go! Why stay here and suffer?" Shiliu said matter-of-factly: "Let me tell you, even though the Su Chuan family is all servants, all the relatives of the Su family are living very well, and there are not many others. Let’s talk about our uncle’s lifesaver, Master Shen.
He is Suchuan's cousin-in-law. He is now doing business and is making a lot of money. Not only is his business spread all over Moshi Town, but even Dahe Town is taken over by his family's Guokui.
There are so many chefs who want to learn how to cook, but they just can't cook the same food as others. Now people have built two large courtyards in the village, which are very elegant. They also hire people to do the work in the fields, and there is nothing wrong with being a landlord.
Let’s take another look at Uncle Suchuan’s family. I heard from our uncle that their family earns several thousand taels from selling grain. Think about it, an ordinary farmer’s family earns several thousand taels a year. How can they live like this? How comfortable it can be!
Not only Uncle Suchuan's family, but almost the entire Dongmen Village has developed along with it, not to mention that Su Yu's mother-in-law's family is the village chief.
Maybe in two or three years, there will be many more wealthy households in Moshi Town, and among them there will definitely be relatives like Suchuan. You will definitely live a good life following Suchuan. "
Cuilan was stunned for a while, her face full of suspicion, "Pomegranate, we can be considered sisters, you don't have to say this to trick me! If the mud-legged people in the country really have such a way to make money, why bother wearing rags? Like a poor beggar!"
Looking at her, hasn't she seen those poor relatives in Suchuan?
