Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 295
The Su family is naturally much richer.

Just the color of the door is different.

But Zhao Jinyi was just an ordinary commoner, even if he was invited by his master, he couldn't enter through the lavish vermilion gate.

Su Chu's maid led her to enter through the corner door, and her tone was full of showing off: "From the screen wall, you have to go through three hanging flower doors before you can reach our girl's yard."

Once you enter the room with one hanging flower door, three hanging flower doors...

Zhao Jinyi smiled slightly: "Is there a sedan chair?"

"Ah?" The maid didn't get the expected response, and was a little dazed for a moment.

Mei Ran couldn't see this maid bullying others the most, and immediately said: "Our girl was injured a while ago, and she is not in good health. Such a long journey has not exhausted our girl. Don't worry, our Zhao family is small , but they always prepare a sedan chair. After all, the girls are delicate and delicate, and they are not comparable to others."

When the maid heard this, she almost wanted to roll her eyes.Princes and aristocrats had to walk by themselves when they went to the palace. It was good for Zhao Si, but when he arrived at the Su family's territory, he wanted to pick up Joe!

Before she finished rolling her eyes, she heard Zhao Jinyi say: "The Su family sent me a post to invite me, so why didn't they prepare the sedan chair? Mei Ran, stop talking nonsense. If this spreads, Su Do you have no face at home?"

This master and servant, singing and harmony, is this trying to piss her off?
The maid gritted her teeth and turned her head to tell the servant: "Bring up a sedan chair. The Fourth Miss Zhao is noble, so you have to carry it steadily. Don't let the Fourth Miss Zhao be frightened."

In this way, Zhao Jinyi sat comfortably on the sedan chair, walked through the first hanging flower door, passed a scene, and listened to the maid's triumphant introduction: "Miss Zhao Si has never seen such a scene? This Taihu Stone , but our old man took a lot of effort to bring it back..."

Zhao Jinyi took out a pack of snacks from his bosom, and interrupted the maid's words: "Transporting Taihu stones is a waste of money and people. The first emperor has already banned it. Officials are no longer allowed to smuggle Taihu stones with all kinds of eyesight. Su Shangshu is bold. The ignorance of the subordinates is embarrassing."

The maid choked, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat, she couldn't get up and down, she was so aggrieved.

After finally gagging the maid of the Su family, the group passed through the three hanging flower doors quietly, and finally arrived at their destination.

In fact, according to Zhao Jinyi's vision, the scenery of the Su family is average.Maybe it's because the population is too small. It's almost hot summer, and there are no suitable trees to tie a swing or something, which is really not good.There is no fence and gazebo near the water to feed the fish and enjoy the shade, which is not good.

The maid followed Zhao Jinyi's critical gaze all the way to the outside of Su Chu's courtyard.

Of course, Su Chu would not come to greet her in person, but two other maids greeted her: "Miss Zhao Si is here, our girl has been waiting for a long time."

Even though he said so, he gave the maid in front of him a hard look.

What is Miss Zhao Si's status, she is even worthy of sitting in a sedan chair!
My girl was originally going to show off Zhao Si, but now it's a good thing!

Just now the maid was wronged and couldn't speak, but she still wanted to hear Zhao Jinyi say: "This sister is kind-hearted, so that I don't get sick, so she specially brought the sedan chair. The Su family's hospitality is really considerate. If I go back, I will definitely go back. Let’s spread the word with our sisters.”

The implication is that if it is not good, should we publicize it more?
The maid was stunned, and watched Mei Ran help Zhao Jinyi, step by step into the girl's yard.

The only daughter of the Su family lived in a large and spacious yard.There are several Baoshas where the maids live.

There are a few crabapple trees planted in the yard, which are in full bloom, so they are really pretty.

Su Chu still didn't come out to greet her, a maid with a sharp face opened the curtain: "Miss Zhao is here to invite you."

The moment the curtain was lifted, Zhao Jinyi frowned.

It's not that the inside is too resplendent, but the white gauze is fluttering, and it looks like a mourning hall in a trance.

Su Chu was dressed in a plain skirt, with white silk flowers on her hair, and she looked like a filial daughter.Women should be pretty and filial.It's just that Zhao Jinyi saw that Su Chu's eye sockets were still haggard despite a lot of powder.

Seeing Zhao Jinyi, she still sat still, only smiled and said: "Miss Zhao Si is here, Lian Er, quickly show Miss Zhao Si a seat. Fang'er, show Si Miss Zhao tea. By the way, Go and see, Ma Liu bought the cakes from Baiweiju."

Between the words, it is extraordinarily enthusiastic.

The maid with a sharper face was called Lian'er, and upon hearing this, she hurriedly brought over an embroidery pier: "Miss Zhao Si, please."

Zhao Jinyi was about to sit down when he suddenly saw a smug look on Lian'er's face.Ah, the damn calculation.She kept her composure, and slowly sat down with her knees bent, her buttocks sank slightly, and she really heard a "snap", like the sound of wood breaking.

Lian'er pretended to be surprised: "Miss Zhao Si, what's the matter? Fang'er, you brought this embroidered pier back again? The front of this embroidered pier was broken when I saw it, and it is going to be repaired outside. of."

Zhao Jinyi stood up unhurriedly: "I have nothing to do, you servants, you can't be careless. Fortunately, I am sitting today. If you are a girl, the consequences will be disastrous."

Su Chu frowned.Zhao Jinyi's words sounded like there was something in his words.

In the end, I still have to save face, so I immediately reprimanded: "Miss Zhao Si is a guest, you are so careless, I think you have to be punished, so that you can have a long memory!"

Lian'er was terrified, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Su Chu, prostrated herself on the ground and said, "Miss, please forgive me, this servant didn't do it on purpose!"

That Fang'er also knelt down: "Girl, please forgive me, Sister Lian'er doesn't know about it, everything is the servant's fault!"

Lian'er interceded for Fang'er: "It's all the fault of the servant girl, don't punish Fang'er, miss."

Zhao Jinyi was on the sidelines, watching his heart.As if it had nothing to do with her.

Lian'er Fang'er vomited blood with hatred, how can this situation be dealt with.If it was a normal guest, they would open their mouths to help and plead a few words when they saw this place.Zhao Si did it on purpose!

Su Chu had no choice but to say: "You two go down, each receive five boards, and have a long memory."

Regardless of whether the servants of the Su family beat lightly or pretended, Lian'er and Fang'er were reluctant to go down anyway.

Biansheng Zhao Jinyi was still listening to the movement outside, and said to himself: "The sound insulation in this room is quite good."

Mei Ran's voice was small, and she whispered to her daughter: "Maybe they didn't fight."

Several people were not far away, although the voice was low, it still reached Su Chu's ears clearly.

Su Chu's face twitched, whether the master and servant have no brains or are too courageous.She had to wink at the maid waiting outside.

She turned her head and still smiled sincerely: "Miss Si, I still have to thank you for being invited as a guest regardless of previous suspicions."

As soon as the words fell, two screams were heard from outside.

Zhao Jinyi smiled slightly: "Miss Su, let the servants in the house be more gentle, don't break the delicate Lian'er Fang'er. If it is broken, you have to find a new person to serve Miss Su."

Su Chu smiled on her face: "Miss Si is kind-hearted, and she takes pity on those two low hoofs. But Miss Si, please rest assured, there are quite a few servants in my house, and without them two, nothing will happen."

Zhao Jinyi sat down on the embroidered pier newly moved by the maid, with an elegant posture: "I'm worrying too much."

The maid served refreshments, Zhao Jinyi took the teacup, but put it aside, and said with a smile, "Just now I saw the grand master of Su's residence, and thought it would take a long time to get to Miss Su's place, so I wanted to eat some snacks on the way. I'm not hungry now."

Su Chu's smile froze.

But at this time, the maid outside announced: "Miss, my uncle is back."

Su Chu stood up excitedly, but accidentally knocked over the teacup, and even wet her sleeves.

"Oh!" Su Chu apologized, "Sorry, miss Si, I have to change this wet clothes."

The maid helped Su Chu into the inner room.

Zhao Jinyi raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

This is Su Chu, he wants to catch the adulterer.
