son-in-law

Chapter 595 Accidental Discovery
A common problem of beautiful women, she is obviously very angry, but still looks very pleasing to the eye.

The convoy passed smoothly, and Su Yu walked into the restaurant with three women in black skirts.

Lao Huang jumped out of the car: "The young master gave them too much face. Just put on a show, why really invite them? They are just the adopted daughters of that woman named Feng, and they are not their own."

Su Yuren's brain exploded, and he patted Lao Huang on the shoulder: "You should go back and sit in the car."

Luqiao Station is the only way from Luoyang to the west, and it is very lively with people coming and going.When the merchants saw someone wielding sticks and swords here to inspect the goods, they couldn't help scratching their heads.Some businessmen inquired about the military master in the posthouse, and after getting some answers, they left here in a hurry.

Businessmen are very taboo to watch the excitement on the road, so there are not many onlookers.But there are more than a dozen domestic slaves behind the three women.In front of the slaves, Zhao Ling was scolded bloody by Lao Huang, and a bloody conflict almost broke out.Su Yu didn't quite understand why Zhao Ling gave him face so much.But since others give face, Su Yu will do better things.Order a table of sumptuous dishes at the posthouse and entertain three people.

Regrettably, the three women seemed to have suddenly become dumb, and there was no atmosphere at all.On the contrary, Su Yu chatted happily with Supervisor Zhang.

During the conversation, the three women seemed to hear something important, but they listened carefully.Su Yu was not worried that they would hear about the expansion of the Shou'an factory, because the waterway of the Luo River was under the direct management of Zhao Yafu, and His Royal Highness King Geng had no right to control Zhao Yafu.

"The three women are beautiful, but they don't like to talk, they feel like three pieces of wood." Su Yu got into the car and continued on his way to Shou'an.

It didn't take too long to eat, so I checked out and packed it, and brought it to Lao Huang and the others.Lao Huang ate the roast chicken and drank the wine, feeling very uncomfortable.

Su Yu glanced at him: "Old Huang, can we restrain ourselves a bit in the future?"

"Why do you have to restrain yourself?" Lao Huang said angrily: "Little girls dare to talk to my young master like that. How can I get used to her bad habits, Lao Huang? It's a pity that Lao Lu is gone, otherwise the two of us will cooperate and kick their papas." Come out. I'll kick 'em apart!"

"Okay, okay, just pretend I didn't say anything." Su Yu shook his head helplessly.

Supervisor Zhang who was sitting in the car smiled awkwardly.Supervisor Zhang is very capable, but he has no background and is a petty official without rank.Yuanwailang usually follows wherever he goes.That Yuanwailang was almost a layman in water conservancy, eating and drinking everywhere, researching how to make money in engineering, and the specific affairs were handled by these small officials.

Talking with the little official, Su Yu learned a lot of water conservancy knowledge, and more and more found that building canals was expensive.Su Yu made a rough calculation, if he wanted to open a canal from the mountains to the Luo River, it would cost at least [-] million.With such a large investment, the princess will be upset again.Although the Shou'an Forest Farm was conferred by the Heavenly Emperor, Tang Ling'er was always worried that she would die in childbirth.Then all these investments will be in vain.

When I came to Shou'an, I didn't go to Shou'an Paper Mill, but went straight to the mountains.There was no road, and a group of people walked along the river to the depths.

Overseer Zhang stared at the river bed as he walked. He had already reached an inaccessible place. He stood still and said, "Your Majesty, please stay. From now on, it will be impossible to repair the canal."

……

It was evening, and the county horse hadn't come back yet.At this time Tang Ling'er had heard the news from the convoy that Su Yu collided with members of King Geng's family at Luqiao Station.An altercation is also said to have occurred.The convoy left after receiving Su Yu's order, and everyone was not very clear about what happened after that.

Such half news made Tang Linger feel depressed, so she continued to review the documents without eating a few mouthfuls of dinner.But as soon as a few copies were approved, I was stunned.

Just as she was feeling depressed, Shi Yao, a chubby servant girl, ran upstairs: "Princess, Wang Xun hasn't eaten all day, so she won't listen to any advice."

"Why doesn't she eat?"

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't tell her when I ask her, and...and I have a bad temper, and I always scold people..."

Xiao Huan questioned in an official tone: "Why didn't you tell Uncle Rong about this, but report it to the princess?"

Shi Yao said aggrievedly: "This is what Wang Xun said, he insisted on seeing the Princess, not anyone else."

The princess sighed and put down her pen: "I'll go see her."

Thinking that Wang Xun was in a bad mood, Tang Linger didn't pay much attention, but when she came to the East Chamber, she found that Wang Xun's eyes were wrong.She was lying there, holding Kang Yan'er with both hands, staring at the door.His eyes were fierce, like a leopard ready to attack.

The East Wing has always been the place where the maids live, and the maids usually dress decently, but their residence is very shabby.There is a big bunk in the room, and a few tattered mats are spread on it.I don't know how Shi Yao served Wang Xun so unkempt.The moment he saw Wang Xun, the princess's eyes suddenly flashed in Uncle Six's eyes.

Seeing this, the princess became angry and asked, "Shi Yao! I asked you to serve her, and you are just fooling around like this?"

Seeing that the princess was on fire, Wang Xun, who was lying on the bunk and covered with a thin quilt, suddenly shouted: "Slap your mouth! You should slap your mouth!"

It has become Wang Xun's instinct to issue orders for the princess.She was so angry that she wanted to get up from the bunk, seeming to forget the pain.But as soon as she got up, her face turned pale, she fell down, and passed out.

The princess felt distressed for a while, stepped forward, reached for her hand, and found that Wang Xun was hot all over.

At this moment, Hu Rong came in and advised the princess to step aside. He picked up Wang Xun and put him on the kang, wiped his forehead: "Silly girl, I'm confused."

……

Lamp time.

The princess came out of the bedroom, stood at the south window and looked out.

There were people coming and going in front of the door from time to time, but the county horse's carriage did not come back, and the princess's eyebrows were slightly frowned.

Li Feng was sent out to inquire, and Li Feng came back and said that there was nothing wrong with Luqiao Station.According to the store owner, there were some quarrels at first, but after the Jun Maye had a drink with the three Concubine Feng and his adopted daughters, the conflict was resolved.

Li Feng reported the truth, but Tang Ling'er thought it sounded hasty.I heard that those three women were very tyrannical, why did they let Su Yu go so easily?Could it be that they have other plans, planning to use black hands?

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and the princess frowned even tighter.

"The county horse is back." Li Feng shouted from the watchtower.

The princess leaned forward and looked to the west, and sure enough, in the dim distance, Su Yu's parallel chariot came into view unhurriedly.Really, there are slaves for every master, Su Yu usually takes his time, and his slaves drive cars with the same virtue.

Seeing the speed of the carriage, the princess knew that Su Yu must be fine.Quietly, the princess frowned and smiled.

Soon the county horse got off the car, he didn't go upstairs directly, but chatted with the servants downstairs.The princess squinted slightly dissatisfied, then turned and returned to the couch.Squinting slightly, he looked at himself in the mirror.Suddenly he raised his hand and brushed his temples.

The princess is impatient, but the county horse is not.After returning home, I tossed and tossed for a while, had dinner first, then took a bath, and played with the children for a while before going upstairs to see the princess.

At this time, the princess's good mood was almost wiped out, and she was even a little angry.

……

Su Yu opened the door curtain and saw a cold face.

The princess sits high, and the flame of the oil lamp shakes slightly below. This kind of light at an angle of 45 degrees has a terrifying color.Exaggerating the corners of the princess's slightly sloping mouth, it felt like she was very angry and was about to explode on the spot.

Su Yu blinked: "Ling'er, I have good news for you."

"What good news?" The princess said calmly.

"Guess." Su Yu walked in slowly.

The princess didn't answer, but Lin Wan closed the ledger, bowed slightly and left.

Su Yu looked left and right, Xiao Huan didn't know where to go.

There were only two people left in the room, the princess was still sullen, Su Yu sat on the couch: "What's wrong?"

Tang Linger glanced at Su Yu sideways: "What do you think?"

Feeling that the topic was wrong, Su Yu quickly changed the topic, Su Yu smiled: "I went to Shou'an today, and I gained a lot. Guess what I found?"

"Aren't you going to dig a canal?"

"Yes, digging a canal. But if it's just digging a canal, it's a costly job, and there are many rocks under the small river that enters the mountain. It's not easy to open the canal. Zhang Gong, the water department, said that at least a few hundred million will be spent. .”

Su Yu had a shrewd expression on his face, not knowing what kind of tricks he was playing.The princess gave him a blank look: "Why, could it be that there are golden sands under the river?"

"No."

"Is there a copper mine?"

"No."

"iron ore?"

"No."

"Then I can't guess."

"There is jade."

While speaking, Su Yu took out two crystal clear pebbles the size of eggs from his arms.It was also deliberately placed in front of the lights to show that the jade is transparent.Then put the jade into the hands of the princess.

Su Yu sat cross-legged on the couch, put his hands on his knees, and looked at the princess happily.But the princess picked up the stone and looked at it, then put it down expressionlessly.

"Jin Feng, I want to discuss something with you." Tang Ling'er looked heavy and said in a non-negotiable tone: "I want Wang Xun to move to my house to recuperate."

"Oh... and then?"

Su Yu's performance made the princess feel a little surprised, she turned her head to stare at Su Yu: "Do you have any objections?"

"Of course I have no objection." Su Yu said lightly, "Go on, I want to hear the key points."

The princess finally smiled, picked up the cobblestone and held it in his hand: "Don't you like to toss around, and you are so considerate of your subordinates. I see that the east wing is in a mess. You can go and see how to decorate it. I remember that you used to have that Instead of planting layers of beds, get them several. Let each of them have their own bed and look tidier."

The princess suddenly became kind-hearted, which surprised Su Yu.It was already dark, Su Yu didn't go to the East Chamber, but discussed with the princess about selling jade.Su Yu said that gold and jade prosper in troubled times, and doing a good job in the jade business has a bright future.It's just that the jade market hasn't opened yet, so some hype is needed to raise the price of jade.

"I even thought of the name of Yushi, and it's called Shou'an Yu. It sounds auspicious."
