The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 496
"No way." Jiang Wen shook his head sadly and said: "No one's food in this imperial capital is as good as yours, so I have nowhere to go now, alas..."

Speaking of this person, Su Xiazhi and Min Lansheng looked at each other, and now they understand that it is the two of them who brought back such a scourge like a dog skin plaster together!
"Hehe!" Since you can't go away, let's get rid of the skin, Su Xiazhi is used to doing business, and he yelled to the backyard as soon as he thought about it: "Girls, come and pay New Year's greetings to Uncle Jiang Wen! "

"It's already the sixth day of junior high school, so don't be so troublesome..." Jiang Wen reached out and secretly touched the things in his armhole, groaning secretly.

"But the fifteenth year is in the new year. New Year's greetings are a must. Mr. Guojiu won't be so stingy that he doesn't even give the children a red envelope..."

The boy and An Yi left with Yuanbao, and came back at night with a sloppy Jiang Wen, which made the quiet courtyard of Min's family lively again.

After dinner, Su Xiazhi put away the bowls and chopsticks and went to the kitchen to wash. A few little girls were still in the main room pulling Jiang Wen's two big sleeves to get things out.

In the kitchen, I heard the prime minister, who is in a high position in the court, yelling under the ravages of his daughter: "It's gone... It's gone here too... One by one, why are you grabbing so many medicine bottles... ..."

Su Xiazhi laughed unknowingly: "Girls are doing beautifully!"

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the New Year's Eve is completely over.

Min Lansheng was also a new official who had just entered Beijing and gradually gained a foothold in the household department by virtue of his calm and neat work style.

Thanks to the uncle of the country, when the officials of all sizes who come in and out of the yamen of the household department mention him, they will whisper with an unclear smile: "Master Xiaomin, I know, I know! Mr. Right, please go to work..."

The word 'business' in the last sentence is even more ambiguous. Anyone who hears it will be chrysanthemum tight, and then send an expression of 'understand, understand'...

Don't worry if you have too many debts, don't bite if you have too many lice.

Min Lansheng, who also went in and out of the household department yamen, had seen and heard too much of these things, so she didn't take these gossips to heart.

He has his own set of theories: the mouth grows on those people's buttocks... no, the mouth grows on those people's faces, and they can say whatever they like, anyway, he can't lose a piece of flesh!

He will do the things that should be his own, and he should not take care of them. Min Lansheng will not say a word.

After a month or two like this, the colleagues in the household department can't say anything other than that he has an unclear relationship with the right minister.

And these adults of all ranks in the household department have to admit: Mr. Right Prime Minister and Mr. Xiao Min are really a couple walking together!

Su Xiazhi, a scholar's errand in the household department, can't help much, and the two of them had agreed as early as when Min Lansheng was the magistrate of Ping County: not to interfere with each other.

So when Min Lansheng gradually found her place in the household department in the capital, Su Xiazhi also started to work on her own affairs.

Thinking about the acquisition of the Escort that she had discussed with An Yi during the Chinese New Year, and then estimated the time, if this matter can be done smoothly, then she will be able to receive the first batch of goods from the workshop before the beginning of summer!

In the intervening months, she still has a lot of things to do.

When the servant came, he exchanged the money collected last year for Liang Tong's banknotes and gave her almost all of them.

Su Xiazhi roughly calculated, only kept half of it, and let him take the rest back.

After a few months, she found a suitable place and opened the noodle restaurant. If there is no accident, she will earn money again. She doesn't want to touch the family's money.

Now that there are three daughters, it is imperative to add another son to the scholar, and her cowhide has already been blown out, and the dowry and betrothal gifts are enough for her to save for a while.

And Xiucai also said that after the age of 40, she will accompany her to live their fairy days, then she will push out all the business at home and outside the house, and see which child is the material for doing business, and she will throw it to whom. Once the money in the wallet is collected, even if it is added to provide for the mother-in-law and old lady, it will be an endless amount of money.

Apart from these distant matters, the most urgent task now is to invite a husband back for the little girls.

Sitting alone in the main room, Su Xiazhi felt sore right arm and shoulder.

"Is this premature aging?" She pressed her left hand on her right shoulder and swung her arm. After a little thought, she realized that this was the result of her being tired from secretly learning to do sewing these days!
"What's the matter?" She muttered to herself, got up and opened the door, and the cool air blowing on her face refreshed her unconsciously.

I hold a frying spoon in the kitchen and cook three meals a day, and my arms are fine. I just took too much needlework these days, and my body is more tiring than doing heavy work. Think about the three girls who are by my side. , she moved her mind again...

"Oh, boiled fish fillet... rice noodle meat... oh, oh... I love it!"

Jiang Wen, who just came back from the outside, walked towards the dining table with a smile on his face as soon as he smelled the smell in the room: "Xia Xia, is this specially made for me?"

"Hey! Ah Wen is smart!" First, he gave the dark-faced Xianggong a look to show comfort, and Su Xiazhi raised his hand and pushed a large bowl of red boiled fish fillets in front of Jiang Wen. : "Help me invite a good embroiderer to come back?"

Su Xiazhi thought about it for a long time, and felt that the little girls in her family not only needed a teacher who taught them homework, but also a 'Mr' who taught them needlework.

And Jiang Wen's elder sister is the current Empress Empress, who is in charge of the Six Palaces. Looking at the imperial capital, isn't the embroiderer with the best needlework in the "Shangyi Bureau" in the palace?

Su Xiazhi, who is also a time traveler, and her fellow countryman, Empress Jiang, were just friends by spirit and didn't know each other, so she had to open her mouth to beg Mr. Uncle Guo, a foodie.

"That's all?" Jiang Wen looked at the big bowl of boiled fish fillets, and seemed to feel that the 'remuneration' was a lot of money, and he deserved it.

"Well, that's all." Su Xiazhi nodded: "I don't know how to do needlework at all, so I dare not go out and invite someone to teach the children. If that happens, I won't even know if I'm being fooled. !"
