Chapter 73
"What are you still worried about? Although my thatched hut is small, but there are many people coming and going, maybe I can sell some of it. You don't have to worry about sales." Seeing that he was silent, Su Nanzhen thought for a while, thinking With an idea, I took on another matter.

"Not to mention Yanjing, there are many wives and ladies in Tongzhou who like to drink scented tea. We also have some pilgrims from Mingyue Temple. If they come to eat, we can make them a pot of scented tea for them to try." Mrs. Su Hearing my daughter talk about scented tea, I thought of going with her.

"I can help too." Xichun looked at Su Nanzhen, then at Su Niangzi, and immediately said that he could help.

"Are you serious?" Du Guangxi finally came to his senses and was very excited.

"Really." Su Nanzhen and Su Niangzi said in unison.

"But I've never made scented tea." Du Guangxi was still a little worried, "What if I mess up..."

"You don't have confidence in yourself?" Su Nanzhen raised her eyebrows, and a big man said, "If you screw it up, just find a way to fix it, and what to do if you think so much."

"How is it possible! I think the tea made by our Du family was a tribute tea back then, but now if the Xie family had not been guarded by that dog official, it is not certain who will get the title of tea king." The more Du Guangxi said, the more angry he became. Said the grievances with Xie's family.

In fact, in retrospect, the ancestors of the Du family and the Xie family were still in-laws, but the daughter stole the tea-making skills to the Xie family, and the two became enemies.

The Du family was held accountable for delaying the payment of tribute due to a problem with Yunwu Tea. Although they lost all their wealth and saved their lives, the Du family never recovered.

His sister wanted to take him to seek refuge with relatives, but unexpectedly got separated halfway, and he returned to Guangyang under the escort of Zhou Wa, and lived a difficult life under his protection.

After finally growing up, he never wanted to find out that his sister had fallen into prostitution. He took some private property and planned to redeem his sister, but unexpectedly she was no longer alive, leaving only Xichun.

Speaking of sadness, Du Guangxi couldn't help but sighed, and tears overflowed his eyes.

Hearing this, Su Nanzhen asked a few more questions, and then sighed, "That man is a dog, otherwise he wouldn't have kicked my mother out of the house."

"Indeed." Du Guangxi echoed subconsciously, if the Xie family hadn't been protected by that dog official, they wouldn't have been beating him to death, until he had no chance of turning over.

Wait, something seems wrong, Du Guangxi was startled, looking at Su Nanzhen and Su Niangzi in disbelief, a little bit unwilling to believe the facts he had guessed.

The daughter of the Xie family heard that she had climbed a high branch and became the successor of a high-ranking official in Yanjing. He never dreamed that that person would have anything to do with their mother and daughter. Thinking of his own words, he lowered his head in shame, "I..."

At this moment, any explanation seems to be worthy of sophistry. Realizing this, Du Guangxi was immediately speechless.

Su Niangzi gave Su Nanzhen a blank look, and asked what that person was doing at this juncture, and besides, that person was her father after all, it was a bit outrageous for her to say that.

"Blame me for being too smart. I just thought of the person you mentioned on him, but it's better to talk about it earlier, and you don't have to worry about it. We are on your side." Su Nanzhen grinned and said casually, "Although nothing can be changed. .”

"She's just like that, she speaks out loud, you're laughing at me." Mrs. Su cast a sideways glance at her daughter, and said shyly, "Don't worry too much, I have nothing to do with him anymore."

It's just her, not them, Mrs. Su glanced at Su Nanzhen and didn't say anything else.

Naturally, Du Guangxi couldn't say anything, he said too many mistakes, he could only make an embarrassing apology, he really didn't mean it.

"It's getting late, you go back to rest first, I will go to the city tomorrow morning to see if I can buy the mountain next to it, if not, it's okay, anyway, there is still land on this mountain that has not been opened up, so it can be used to grow tea .

As the saying goes, you can’t become fat if you eat one bite. We will figure it out slowly. If you are short on money, you can move to live in the thatched shed first, but you have to take things out to keep out the wind, and you can make do with it for a few days. "Su Nanzhen thought for a moment, but it was not good for him to move to the thatched cottage rashly, so he could only wrong them.

"It's okay, we'll stay at the hotel, it's okay." Du Guangxi said quickly, bid farewell to them, and left in a hurry.

After he left, Mrs. Su sighed again. She originally thought about letting her daughter go back to Xiao's house, but now that she heard what Du Guangxi said, her heart, which was still a little vacillating, was completely at ease.

With the character of the old lady of the Xiao family, it's no wonder that the Xie family wanted to climb high. Now that the two families are in-laws, something might happen. She can't let her daughter be implicated in their stupid affairs.

And Su Nanzhen also went to the yamen early in the morning to ask, the hillside next to it is also unowned land, not much better than the mountain land she bought, or even worse, because there are many thorns and many trees, the difficulty of opening up wasteland is not ordinary. .

Seeing that it was her who came to buy the mountain land again, the official sent the lion to ask for 20 taels, so Su Nanzhen hesitated.

"You guys are not good at arithmetic, so I'll let you Master Pei figure out how much this mountain is worth." Gu Shenyi snorted coldly.

Su Nanzhen couldn't help but glanced at him, and couldn't help being a little curious about Mr. Pei.

At this time, an official came out from behind and said with a smile, "He's new here, he doesn't know the rules, it's still the same, everything is the same, and we can rest assured that the mountain land will be opened up for you."

In this way, Su Nanzhen still bought the mountain next to it at the price of ten taels of silver, and was still exempted from tax in the previous two years. This time she paid the money readily.

After receiving the contract documents, Su Nanzhen did not leave immediately, but looked at Gu Shenyi seriously, "Can you take me to meet that Mr. Pei?"

"Why?" Gu Shenyi was taken aback by her. He thought that his purpose of coming here was only to support the scene, but he didn't expect to have other intentions. Could it be that she discovered Pei Songzhi's true identity?
"I want to ask him about my mother being driven out of the house by the Xiao family." Su Nanzhen thought for a while, and then said.

Her mother refused to speak ill of the Xiao family, and she didn't want to bring up the past, so she could only find a way to find out the facts of the year, and she couldn't let the Xiao family come here just by opening their mouths.

There is also the matter of dowry, but it can only be figured out slowly, now she doesn't even know where Yanjing is, Su Nanzhen looked at Gu Shenyi with hope.

Gu Shenyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was obviously not the one who did the bad thing, but he was a little guilty because he didn't report it. Seeing that Su Nanzhen didn't see through Pei Songzhi's identity, he was secretly glad, and quickly said, "You might as well ask him." I, I don’t know what’s going on in Yanjing.”

"Then do you know why the Su family was exiled thousands of miles away?" Su Nanzhen blurted out.
