Chapter 59 Mrs. Bai’s Beating
The group returned to Bai Mansion.
Grandma Li immediately went to Mrs. Bai to reply, and she didn't know what she said when Wan went to wait on Mrs. Bai in the courtyard.
Mrs. Bai actually set rules for her and let her sit outside in the sun for half an hour before letting her in.
Wan was sweating profusely, but she didn't dare to complain.
Mrs. Bai glanced at her coldly and asked slowly: "I heard from Granny Li that Su Yu married well and was the son of a village chief. Why didn't I hear you talk about it before?"
Mrs. Wan hurriedly defended: "Madam, although my son-in-law is the son of the village chief, he is also a farmer. He has neither separated the family nor has any other means of making a living, and he is already married. I don't think there is anything to say.
It was only because the village chief's family was close to the slave's uncle's family and they knew each other well that the slave could feel more at ease, so she agreed to the marriage. "
Mrs. Bai's face was pale, and she did not let her go because of Wan's remarks. She then asked about Su Chunlin's family background.
Wan's face was at a loss, "Madam, I know that I may not be able to see my uncle's family once a year. I only met once when the couple got married. Later, natural disasters and man-made disasters, my uncle always came to the county to find me." We helped, but the slave only let the child's father deal with it and never showed up in person.
If Xiao Yu hadn't been in the village now, I would have had nothing to do with my uncle's family. I also listened to the child's father about their family affairs.
However, it is well known that their family has made a lot of money from their work in the fields, and I guess the county government officials also know about it. "
She deliberately mentioned the yamen official to tell Mrs. Bai that the money of Su Chunlin's family had nothing to do with them.
Madam Bai couldn't see that there were servants and powerful relatives in the house. When she heard this, her face darkened and she was thinking about how to beat Wanshi.
At this moment, Nanny Li whispered a lot of words in Madam Bai's ear.
Madam Bai's face softened, she looked at Wan, and said thoughtfully: "Su Chuan is not young anymore. Now that Su Yu has a family, it's really outrageous for him to be alone as an elder brother. He happens to be the maid of the young lady's dowry. Cuilan hasn't gotten married yet, so let her be with Suchuan."
Wan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at the proud Nanny Li. She felt that there was something deceitful, but she didn't know what the problem was, so she could only accept it for the time being.
As soon as Wan left, Nanny Li asked in confusion: "Why didn't Madam search the Su Chunsen family's belongings? What if they really bought property outside?"
"Why are you panicking!" Madam Bai sneered coldly, "She can be calm and composed in front of you, which shows that she is not afraid of investigation at all. If Mrs. I really searched their family and found nothing, wouldn't it be wrong? Let the Su Chunlin family divorce the Baifu?
I don’t need Wan Xiang, but the master trusts Su Chunsen very much, and the eldest young master is also satisfied with Suchuan, so why should I mess up the family with a little gossip? Uneasy?
Just wait and see! As time goes by, Cuilan will know the background of the Su family. Then you can find out more about it. "
After all, her family's contract of sale was in her hands, so she didn't have to rush.
At this time, Wan was in Master Bai's Qiufengyuan, telling Suchuan about Mrs. Bai's marriage.
Suchuan's reaction was quite calm. He only raised his eyebrows and reminded Wan, "Mom, that Granny Li is not a good person. She must not let her know anything in the future."
Wan Shi nodded repeatedly, gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "Even if you don't say anything to my mother, you will draw a clear line with her in the future. Isn't it just the wife who came here as a dowry? I really think I can cover the sky with one hand! Just wait, I will regain my place when I turn around!" But son, why did Madam betroth Cuilan to you?
Logically speaking, she is Madam’s personal maid and a decent person in the house. Madam is obviously trying to beat our family to let you marry Cuilan. She Is there something wrong? "
Suchuan glanced at the study room out of the corner of his eye and shook his head with Wan Shi, "Mom, it's okay. If Cuilan really had any problems, how could Madam continue to keep her in the house? It's probably that Grandma Li is setting her sights in front of Madam. Medicine, my wife was afraid that our family would really buy property outside, so she asked me to marry Cuilan.
I am the only son of you, and I married a maid in the palace. Our family has been a slave of the White House for generations. "Wan Shi felt very unhappy when she heard these words. She lowered her voice subconsciously and moved closer to Suchuan, "Son, tell me honestly, do you also want to leave the Bai Mansion? "
If she hadn't gone to Dongmen Village, she wouldn't have guessed in this regard. But this time she went there and saw the stability and prosperity of Su Chunlin's family and the situation in the village, her inherent knowledge was shaken.
Su Chuanyan shook his head insincerely, "Mom, don't think too much, go back first, I have to go to the madam and the eldest young madam to thank you later."
As soon as Mrs. Wan walked out of Qiufengyuan, she heard the sound of breaking porcelain coming from Master Bai's study.
She paused and quickly walked away.
Here in Dongmen Village.
After Su Yu successfully got married, Su Chunlin and his wife seemed to have been relieved of a heavy burden and turned their attention to farm work.
In midsummer, the crops in the fields need to be watered in the morning and evening. The Su family has eight more acres of wasteland this year, and they must take care of it more carefully than others.
Even the sage moss has to go to the ground to weed and water.
While busy, the two acres of rice in Tu Shi Kong once again had a good harvest. After selling to the automatic trading cabinet, they received 3,600 coins.
Since Mu Shikong upgraded, she has seen a variety of vegetables in the vegetable store, and also knows that in addition to rice, paddy fields can also grow other aquatic vegetables, such as wild rice and lotus root.
So this time she decided to plant wild rice instead.
Firstly, the maturity period of vegetables is short, and the cost of trial and error is low. Secondly, the yield of vegetables in paddy fields can be tested, so that she can know which crops are the most cost-effective.
After arranging the paddy field work, Su Tai no longer cared about those fields in Earth Time and Space.
Because at this time, news spread from Su Changxi’s family that Su Yu was pregnant.
Su Tai's family, as Su Yu's closest natal family, naturally had to behave well.
So Han caught chickens and cut meat, bought ingredients, and sent large and small packages to Su Changxi's house.
Mrs. Huang laughed so hard when she saw those things, "You guys can just come here, why are you bringing these things? Is it possible that our family can still have food and clothing without Xiaoyu?"
Han quickly put down the meat and took out the linen cloth, "I looked around the town for a long time and found that this material is the softest and suitable for children. You can use it to make two small clothes for the child in Xiaoyu's belly."
Su Tai subconsciously reached out and touched the material and muttered: "It's not very soft either."
This was ridiculed by Mr. Huang, "Little girl, you don't know the ropes. Just this fine linen cloth costs fifty cash per foot, and coarse cloth only costs twenty cash per foot. Your mother spent at least two hundred cash on this piece of material." You still dislike it!”
Su Tai couldn't help but click her tongue, silently thinking about how much cotton cloth made from earthly spacetime cotton could be sold for.
