son-in-law

Chapter 4
"Xiaohuan, are you making a mistake? Why do I think the total number of the Li family should be 36600 horses?" Su Yu walked into Xiaocang and looked at their account books.All the other families were right, but the Li family was wrong.

Xiao Huan scratched her head: "How did my uncle figure it out?"

"mental arithmetic."

"mental arithmetic?"

Xiao Huan was still a little unconvinced.

Perhaps it was to give the new son-in-law some noodles, so she told Lin Wan the result of Su Yu's calculation.

Lin Wan paid much attention to it, and gathered the six little maids together to reconcile the accounts.

During the reconciliation process, it was discovered that the fat maid Tang Xiaofei had misreported an amount.But Su Yu's calculation was correct.

Almost instantly, Lin Wan and the six little maids were in awe of this uncle named Su.

At that time, Su Yu just stood at the door with his hands behind his back, rubbing his fingers lightly.

I didn't expect to gain respect through such means.

This is really a bit of a surprise.

Later, the little maids "besieged" Tang Xiaofei with all their tongues, and after scolding her, it seemed that she was the culprit who caused the fire this time.Finally, Tang Xiaofei stomped away.

Lin Wan walked over and said with a smile, "I never thought my uncle could be so powerful."

Su Yu smiled ashamedly and said, "It's just a trick, nothing to do with it."

Lin Wan smiled and said: "Miss is going to the Kong family to collect the bill today, to the Han family to inspect the goods, and to see the head of the Zhengzhou bank who came all the way. I guess she will come back later."

Su Yu shook his head and said, "If it's too late, I won't disturb Miss's rest today."

Lin Wan's eyes flashed with regret, and then she bowed and left.

Su Yu didn't care why there was such emotion in her eyes, now he just felt a little hungry.

So I asked Xiao Huan what to eat for dinner.

Xiao Huan said that she would not eat at night.If my uncle wants to eat, Xiao Huan will go to the kitchen to order it for you.However, this kind of extra meal has to be paid for.

Su Yu was a little stunned: "You still have to pay the kitchen for meals at your own home?"

Xiao Huan said: "This is what the lady stipulated. Now the Tang family has a lot of foreign debts, and it is not easy to make money, but some people in the house don't know how to cherish food, and a lot of money is wasted on food every year."

Su Yu murmured in his heart: "I never expected that a family of a wealthy family would need to plan carefully even for meals. Moreover, the fifteenth lady of the Tang family is indeed very powerful. In the entire East Mansion, she is another master besides Tang Zhen. Tang Zhen like that Of course, the important person in the family can't always take care of the family's chores, and this fifteenth lady is more like Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian in the Tang (Jia) mansion."

"Uncle, do you want to eat or not?" Xiao Huan tilted her head playfully.

The smile on the little maid's face looked a bit evil.

Su Yu thought to himself, if he guessed correctly, this little girl wanted to get some benefits from him.For example, the leftovers from eating must belong to her.

But at this time, Su Yu had no money in his pocket, so he had no choice but to pretend that he was not hungry.

-

Anle County Lord's Mansion is a three-entry courtyard with an open door. Different from ordinary three-entry courtyards, the middle courtyard in her mansion is the main courtyard, and it is a two-story building.

Su Yu was assigned to the ear room of the third entrance courtyard.

The room has already been well-arranged, Xiao Huan just told Su Yu where to put some miscellaneous things, and then left.Before leaving, he told Su Yu that if he had something to do, he would go to the East Chamber to find her.If you don't like to move around, you can hear it here in the East Wing.But keep an eye on Miss. When Miss is at home, don't make any noise.

As the sun went down, Su Yu found a candle and lit it.

Sitting alone at the square table, I feel so boring.

Put out the candles, go outside the house, draw out the long sword, and dance, thinking about the moves on the sword manual.That sword manual has long been firmly in his mind.At the beginning, he promised that Yan's mourning would not be passed on to the outside world, so the sword manual was burned by him long ago.

This sword technique is very powerful. Back then, he had a fight with the self-proclaimed martial arts general Lin Chongyang, and beat the latter to the ground.From then on, Lin Chongyang always came to him to learn swordsmanship.But Su Yu refused to teach for various reasons, and Lin Chongyang used all kinds of tricks. Fortunately, Su Yu had a lot of tricks in his heart, otherwise Lin Chongyang would have worn him down.But Lin Chongyang is a martial idiot, and he comes to study every now and then, which is a bit annoying.Now that he has finally left Huazhou, it will save him from bothering him again.

While dancing the sword, I smelled the smell of barbecue.

Sheathed the sword, put it in the house, walked out again, walked eastward following the scent, passed the moon gate, and heard a few little maids chirping behind the wall.

Quiet and listen carefully, they caught a pheasant.

Tang Xiaofei said: "There is such a good thing. I was sewing a shoe clapper, and it flew in. It surprised me."

Xiao Huan sneered: "Well, if you say that this pheasant is also blind, why did it fly to your side?"

The thin servant girl said: "It's strange to say, how come there are pheasants flying in our place. Don't they be raised in Miss Eight's yard next door?"

Xiao Huan said: "Are you talking in your sleep? I often go to Miss Ba's place, but I don't see any pheasants."

The maid in the red coat said, "Be careful lighting the fire, don't let Lin Wan know about it."

"Feng Yu went to the south gate to let the wind go, it's okay." Xiao Huan lowered her voice: "Hey, I think this uncle named Su is very stingy."

The maid in the red coat asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Huan snickered and said, "I heard that dinner requires money, but he actually said he wasn't hungry."

The thin servant girl said: "He is also a master of careful planning."

Tang Xiaofei said: "Well, this point is similar to Miss. We have to fight for every penny."

Xiao Huan said: "Stop talking nonsense, Miss is not stingy at all. She has big business in her hands, so of course she has to compete for every penny of the unit price."

"Hee hee, Xiao Huan, did my aunt give you a meeting gift today?" Tang Xiaofei asked with a smile.

Xiao Huan said with a cold face: "Tang Xiaopang, I found that you know how to think about beautiful things all day long."

"Don't you think my aunt looks very good? It's comparable to last year's Luohe Xiusheng." At this moment, the red-coated servant girl interrupted.

Xiao Huan sneered: "Oh? Tang Fei, what do you mean by that? Why, you're into it?"

It turned out that the maid in the red coat was named Tang Fei, and she glanced at Xiao Huan and said, "What are you talking about, who is interested in it?"

"If you don't want to, I won't say it. You must have thought about it." Xiao Huan seemed to be grabbing something from someone, and then said: "Leave the chicken legs to my uncle. Miss arranged, let me take care of my uncle's daily life. If you let my uncle I can't justify being hungry."

"Xiao Huan, don't steal it yourself." Tang Xiaofei said.

"I, Zhu Huan, am I that kind of person?"

Tang Fei said: "It's you! Miss's sweet-scented osmanthus cake was stolen by you, and you blame Tang Xiaofat."

Xiao Huan said: "Don't talk about me, as if you don't steal."

Then footsteps were heard.

Su Yu thought something was wrong, and quickly coughed lightly.

This light cough frightened the little maids quite a bit, only to hear a flurry of hands and feet coming from over there.

Su Yu snickered in his heart, and then said loudly: "I was in the ear room, and I vaguely smelled a trace of smoke, so I came over to take a look. Since someone is watching here, then I won't go over. You guys continue to chat. Oh yes Yes, my uncle is not stingy. If you have money in the future, everyone will have a meeting gift."

There was a moment of silence behind the wall.

Xiao Huan ran over with two chicken legs.

The little maid had a complicated expression, a little ashamed, and a little embarrassed smile.

-

Go back to the house and eat chicken legs.

Give Xiao Huan one.

The little maid was overjoyed and started eating.

According to Xiaohuan, the girl in red is called Tang Fei, the girl in green is Tang Cui, the fat girl is called Tang Xiaopang, and the skinny girl is called Li Duocai.In Qinghuafang, there are too many people with the surname Tang. According to the genealogy, they were all in the same family 200 years ago.But now, some families are doing well, while others are not.No, people like Tang Fei, Tang Cui, and Tang Xiaopang came here to be maids.However, after all, his surname is Tang, even if he is a maid, he still has a monthly salary.It's not like Xiao Huan is a hard-working person. Her father signed a contract of prostitution for her, and the contract lasted for 20 years. After 20 years, if he behaves well, the Tang family can still keep him.If the little master doesn't take care of it, he may have to leave the house.It would be nice to pick up some old clothes to wear before leaving.

When Xiao Huan talked about her life experience, she suddenly became depressed.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Su Yu joked: "When I knew about the fake marriage, I had a muddled idea in my mind."

Xiao Huan was curious: "What idea?"

"I actually thought that Jing Jing might be Tang Ling'er."

"Hee hee, how could my uncle have such a strange idea?"

"I don't know, I just feel like something is wrong."
