Chapter 241 Xu is destined
"Working in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" The soldier looked Su Wan up and down, and then asked on the carriage, "What kind of property does the family have?"

"The family only grows a few acres of Susukida, and has no property." Su Wan continued to answer respectfully.

"Then, what is your elder brother's position in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" the soldier continued to ask.

Su Wan's heart moved, and she frowned secretly, how could she forget this?If the family only had a few acres of Susukida, where would they get the money to buy a carriage?Even if it is a temporary rental for traveling to Beijing, it will cost a lot of money.

No wonder the soldier wanted to ask about his brother's position, if he was just an ordinary servant, his salary this year might not even be able to buy a horse.

Su Wan's mind turned for a moment, and then she smiled apologetically: "Oh, look at my brain, I forgot what my brother said in his letter, why don't I ask my father, he may remember .”

After Su Wan finished speaking, she opened the curtain of the car, and asked Old Man Chen inside, "Father, what position does my brother hold in the prime minister's residence?"

Su Wan thought that old man Chen had stayed in the prime minister's mansion after all, so he knew more about the positions in the mansion than she did, and his casual words would always be more credible than her nonsense.

The facts proved that the old man Chen did not disappoint her. After all, he came from a wealthy family and has seen the world. Although he has lived in the countryside for nearly 20 years, he still remembers the past.

I saw the old man Chen bowed and got off the carriage, cupped his hands and smiled at the soldier: "I have seen Mr. Jun, my eldest son is a accountant in the prime minister's mansion, because the account management is good, the prime minister is very careful." It is very important, so, the salary is quite a lot, and he is also rewarded with an innocent girl as a wife. Oh, it is right to spend money for him to study before coming here. a man of distinction."

Su Wan smacked her tongue secretly as she listened to it, as expected of a person who stayed in the prime minister's mansion, when it came to a critical moment, it really looked like that, the whole person looked different.

"Oh, so that's how it is." The soldier nodded. It was obvious that Old Man Chen's words convinced him a lot, and his expression softened a lot.

The family of Mr. Accountant of the Prime Minister's Mansion, although they are just servants, depends on whose family they belong to, besides, they are servants who are highly valued by the prime minister. He is just a soldier guarding the city gate. Give them some face.

"Yes, sir, please help me." Old man Chen said with a smile.

"The people in the carriage come down, we will conduct a routine inspection, and then you can leave." The soldier waved to He Shi who was still sitting in the carriage.

"Okay, old lady, come down quickly and let the military master check." The old man Chen responded, reaching out to help Mrs. He out of the carriage, the soldier looked him up and down again, and turned over on the carriage again. A few bundles of clothes, but found nothing else, and got out of the carriage.

"My son is married, and you didn't bring anything with you?" The soldier asked again, seemingly unintentionally.

"Oh, we wanted to bring some, but my eldest son said in the letter that we don't need to bring anything, we have everything here, and the prime minister has prepared everything, we thought, there is nothing at home , I simply didn’t bring anything with me.” Old man Chen said with an embarrassed smile.

"Well, let's go." The soldier nodded, and finally waved at them and let them go.

"Thank you, Mr. Jun, thank you, Mr. Jun." Su Wan hurriedly thanked, helped old man Chen and Mrs. He into the carriage, while she grabbed the horse's reins, patted the horse's buttocks, and entered the city gate.

After entering the city and walking out for nearly a mile, Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

The soldier guarding the gate is also amazing, the seemingly simple question, but every sentence contains a deep meaning, a bad answer, it is easy to reveal the truth.

Sure enough, whatever you do is what you do, and there are two brushes.

"Father, where is the Prime Minister's Mansion? Where are we going?" Su Wan turned her head and opened the curtain and asked old man Chen.

Old man Chen leaned forward, poked his head out to look and said, "Oh, I haven't been back for almost 20 years. This place has really changed a lot. I remember to walk along this street first, and go to the front. turn left."

"Sure, let's walk first, and ask someone if we can't find us." Su Wan nodded and drove the carriage forward.

Mrs. He also opened the curtain and looked out, and couldn't help sighing: "Hey, it's really changed. I thought I would never have a chance to come back in my life."

"Hey, coming back may not be a good thing, who knows what will happen next?" Old Man Chen said with a sigh.

"Fusheng doesn't know what's going on, Prime Minister, he won't ignore him, right?" After all, Mrs. He has raised Chen Fusheng so much, and has long regarded him as her own son. Now that something like this happened, she felt in her heart Very uneasy.

"Who can say for sure? We'll see when the time comes." Old man Chen changed from being energetic at the gate of the city, and returned to his listless look before.

Thinking of the next unknown situation, my heart beats again, right?

"Father, you were really good at the gate of the city just now. Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know what to say." Su Wan began to praise Old Man Chen, diverting his attention and increasing his confidence.

Old man Chen really laughed and said: "At any rate, I have been in the prime minister's mansion for more than ten years, how can I be questioned by such a small soldier?"

"That's right, you have been in the prime minister's mansion for so many years, and you have done such a big thing for the prime minister. Come to think of it, he will not make things difficult for you." Su Wan tried to comfort Old Man Chen's heart, so that he would not retreat.

"Hey, I hope, no matter what, for the sake of floating life, what's the point of taking this life?" Old man Chen sighed, but his expression was determined.

"Yeah, for so many years, we have regarded Fusheng as our own son, raised him so big, and married such a good wife as you. Originally, we thought that it would be good to just end this life like this. Who would have thought that? This kind of thing happened again? Maybe it's fate, and we can't hide from it. We have lived a peaceful life for so many years, and it is not wrong to take this old life for the sake of floating life, and we are worthy of him calling us for so many years parents."

As He spoke, the circles of his eyes turned red, and he took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wipe away his tears.

Su Wan was also very upset. Speaking of it, it was not easy for the old man Chen and He's husband and wife. It can be said that they spent half of their lives for Chen Fusheng, and they did not want a child of their own.

She suddenly felt a little guilty, because the two of them didn't immediately agree to come to the capital with her, and their attitude became bad. They were just a little at a loss at the beginning, but didn't they come with her without hesitation in the end?
"Father and mother, let's not think about things so pessimistically. Maybe the prime minister won't blame you at all. Fusheng is in the prime minister's mansion? Isn't there nothing wrong with it?" Su Wan persuaded with a smile.

"Hey, I hope." Old man Chen and Mrs. He sighed. Although they both knew it was impossible, they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
