The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official Chapter 224

Chapter 224 The Yang family is blatantly

Su Ruojin refused to accept this trick and glared at him, "If you dare to be sticky again, I will return to Weizhou immediately." You can't see or hold him back. After saying that, he took the fruit out of the room and stood in the corridor to enjoy the breeze while eating.

When I was young, I was always so carefree. How wonderful it would be if I never grew up!

The fifth day of August came soon. Su Dalang asked for leave. The brother and sister bought gifts and brought them to the Yang family's new house.

Yang Jingzi was promoted from a seventh-rank junior Beijing official to a third-rank official in the Ministry of Justice. The speed of his promotion was legendary, and there was an endless stream of people coming to congratulate him.

I thought the Yang family was lively, but I didn't expect it to be so lively. There was a desk at the door, and a row of people stood there, greeting guests, receiving congratulations, and introducing people to the house...

The Su Dalang brothers and sisters standing behind the crowd looked at each other. The neighbors who were once able to enter the house at will have become unattainable and wealthy.

"Mei, can we still come in instead of dad?"

"Of course." Su Ruojin looked around. She had made an appointment with Yang Siniang. The little girl should ask the girl next to her to come out to greet her.

While she was waiting for the girl next to Yang Siniang, someone called her, "Ajin—"

The brother and sister turned around, and it turned out to be Mr. Xue.

"Uncle Xue, you are here."

Master Xue nodded, looked at the people coming and going, and couldn't help but be envious, "Osmanthus Hutong, I was the first to be promoted. Unexpectedly, I am now nailed to the fifth rank and motionless, but Master Yang is like flying into the sky. He immediately became a celebrity in front of the emperor."

Su Ruojin wanted to tell Mr. Xue not to envy others, or maybe 'watch him build tall buildings, watch him entertain guests', but the words that came out of his mouth turned into another sentence: "Uncle Xue, we will go in with you."

"good."

Mr. Xue took the lead and arrived at the congratulatory table. He announced his relationship and name. Yin Zan raised his hand and said politely, "It turns out that I am Mr. Yang's old neighbor. Please--" The young man who ushered in the guest hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sir, please Follow the little one this way.”

The Su family brothers and sisters followed and entered Yang's house together.

Fortunately, it was a house that the emperor personally admired. It was elegant and elegant, much more luxurious than the house of Fan Shilang's family.

Su Ruojin separated from her brother and Mr. Xue in the corridor. They went towards the male guests. She was taken to the inner house. As soon as she entered the moon cave door, she saw the girl beside Yang Siniang.

When she saw Su Ruojin, she shouted happily, "Ms. Jin, I've been waiting for you to come. My fourth wife is waiting for you."

When Su Ruojin saw Yang Siniang, she found that she and her sister were surrounded by a group of young ladies in the back garden, chattering. If you listened carefully, they were all flattering.

The Yang parents-in-law were busy greeting one and taking care of the other. When they had time, they quickly wiped the sweat from their foreheads. When they looked up, they saw the second wife of the Su family coming over with a smile, "Ajin, here we come!"

"Ah Jin has met Sister Yu." Su Ruojin said a blessing, and Yang Dalang's wife quickly reached out to help her up, "We are all old neighbors, why are you so polite? Just wait, I will ask Ah Rong to come and accompany you."

"No, Sister Yu, I'll just sit somewhere and have a cup of tea. You guys are busy with your work."

The whole back garden was full of female guests, and it was hard to greet them. Su Ruojin asked Sister-in-law Yu to go about her business.

Yang Dalang's wife always knew that the second wife of the Su family was well-behaved and sensible, so she was not polite to her. "Then I will go and get busy. You sit down first. A Rong will be here soon."

Sure enough, after a while, Yang Siniang emerged from the pile of flattery and complained when she saw her best friend, "Ajin, why did you come here and caused my ears to be poisoned?"

Su Ruojin pursed her lips and smiled, "I see that you are so flattered by the compliments that you are just trying to find a place to drink tea quietly. I will go home when the tea is full."

"See how you dare." Yang Siniang feigned anger and stretched out her hand to pull her to her boudoir.

"Wow, what a big yard!"

Mrs. Yang is capable, and the Yang family has always lived a good life. Yang Siniang has had her own independent courtyard since she was a child, but it cannot compare with the current palace of the Minister.

"What's so great about it?" Yang Birong introduced the person into the side room and poured a cup of honey grapefruit water for her best friend.

Su Ruojin was thirsty after leaving, so she took it and drank less than half of it. After taking a breath, she said leisurely, "Are you unhappy?"

Yang Siniang sighed and sat down at the table, leaning on the table with her elbows and resting her chin on her hands, "You have also seen that there are a lot of flatterers. If you are not careful, you will be photographed. You don't know when you will get into trouble, but annoyed."

"Getting into trouble?"

Yang Siniang pursed her lips, "My eldest brother was asked to go out for a drink and was flattered by others. He was so drunk that he didn't even know whether he had agreed to the personnel. As a result, he came to my father for business the next day after the dinner party. "

"Your father blames your eldest brother?"

"No."

"Since your father didn't make things difficult for your eldest brother, why are you still not happy?"

"Because my dad helped take care of things."

"Is it bad if you do it?"

Yang Siniang sighed again: "My brother met the old woman who was the master of suffering. She knelt in front of my brother and said that my father had destroyed the whole family."

Su Ruojin was shocked: "What's going on?"

Yang Siniang was about to cry when she was asked, "My brother said that those people got him drunk. For a case involving a silk and satin shop, the owner said that these people deceived her son into gambling and used the shop to pay off the gambling debt. Her man refused to accept it. If she was willing to give him the shop, they put her son in jail. Her man had no way to appeal, so he hanged himself in anger. Jing Zhaoyin had no choice but to throw the case to the Criminal Department. Unexpectedly, my father took action and closed the case. He ordered the old lady to take out the She had to make the deed, otherwise her son would be sentenced to death. In order to save her son's life, the old woman had no choice but to take out the deed and settle the case. Somehow, the old woman found my brother, knelt down in front of him, and explained the cause and consequences. Then she hit the wall and committed suicide. Fortunately, my brother was quick and caught her and took her to the hospital to save her life. "

"Then what?"

"My mother sent the old woman to the village to be raised in a village. She told her that as long as she was alive and her son had a home, the old woman would not seek death and would wait in the village for her son to be released after serving his sentence."

Su Ruojin secretly took a breath of air-conditioning, Master Yang committed evil, and Mrs. Yang took care of the consequences?

She unconsciously glanced at this exquisite house. The more she looked at it, the more it looked like an exquisite cage. No wonder she felt strange when she came in. It turned out that underneath the hustle and bustle, it was Mrs. Yang's helplessness.

It was clear that the man had been promoted and made a fortune, but she seemed to be in a cage.

Su Ruojin didn't know how to comfort Yang Siniang.

"Then your brother..."

"My mother said that my brother is soft-hearted and is not suitable for the intrigues in the capital. After I get engaged in October, I will return to my hometown to guard my ancestral temple."

"Your father agrees?"

"If she doesn't agree, my mother will force her to death, saying that my father is an official who kills people. She says that she doesn't want to annihilate her descendants. If she doesn't agree, she will make peace."

Su Ruojin:…

Unexpectedly, so many things happened in the unknown Yang family in such a beautiful place. How many days has it been since Mr. Yang was promoted to minister? Are you actually handling the case like this? What will it be like in the future?

She simply didn't dare to think about it. She wanted to ask Zhao Lan now, did the emperor know that he was handling the case this way? If he knew, would his official position be compromised?

Su Ruojin didn't know how to taste the Yang family's promotion banquet and had no appetite at all.

After dinner, Su Ruojin said goodbye to Yang Siniang and Mrs. Yang, "I will leave Beijing tomorrow and go to Weizhou to live with my parents. Auntie and Siniang will go and have fun if they are free. You are always welcome."

Mrs. Yang nodded, obviously lacking energy, but she managed to cheer up and smile, "In a blink of an eye, you have all grown up, A Rong is about to get engaged, A Jin, you must come back in October to attend A Rong's engagement party. "

"Okay, Auntie, I will definitely come back."

"There are still a lot of miscellaneous things at home, so I won't send you away. Ah Rong, I will send Ah Jin away."

"Then Auntie, I'll leave first."

Mrs. Yang nodded gently and watched the two young ladies leaving hand in hand.

It's great to be young! Mrs. Yang stared at the void, thinking of the days when she was young. Why did she live like this? Everyone likes their husbands to seek titles, so why is she so frightened? What went wrong? Is it because she is too poor to bear the high salary of a high official? No one has an answer for Mrs. Yang. If there is, it can only be time.

The two young ladies walked out of the gate hand in hand, "Ajin, when do you leave tomorrow? I will see you off."

"No need." Su Ruojin waved her hand, "I think my aunt is very tired. Please help her at home so that she can relax."

As if she had grown up overnight, Yang Siniang said, "My mother is not tired physically, but mentally."

Su Ruojin:…

She raised her eyes and looked at the shining golden plaque on the door of Yang's house. For some reason, she suddenly hoped that there was someone like him in the world, and that Mr. Yang was not the real Mr. Yang, so Mrs. Yang, Yang Dalang, and Yang Siniang wouldn't be such bad guys. Official dad.

Yang Dalang and Mr. Xue saw Su Ruojin coming out and greeted her, "Let's go home."

Su Ruojin nodded with a heavy heart.

Seeing the bitter look on the young lady's face, Mr. Xue laughed at her, "It's obviously a wedding banquet, why do you act like..." a dead person.

Su Ruojin curled her lips and asked him, "How did Uncle Xue come here?"

"Rented sedan."

Su Ruojin looked like she knew it and invited him, "Take our car and take Uncle Xue home first."

"Ajin isn't going back to his old house to pick up things, is he taking me with him?"

Su Ruojin snorted: "Okay, brother, let's go."

"No, no, no, no..." Mr. Xue stopped teasing the children and got into the carriage with them.

Su Ruojin always looked unhappy, Master Xue asked again, "Master Yang was promoted, Yang Siniang looks down on you, are you angry?"

She shook her head, "Nothing."

"Then why are you unhappy?"

"nothing."

Now it was Mr. Xue's turn to snort, "Mr. Yang is very prosperous now. From my point of view, today's promotion banquet alone may cost tens of thousands of taels of silver."

What?

Su Ruojin sat up straight in an instant, eyes widened, "Uncle Xue, what did you just say? One hundred thousand taels of silver?"

Master Xue silently acquiesced.

hiss!

"What does Mr. Yang want to do?" It's so blatant. No wonder Aunt Yang is worried, judges the case indiscriminately, and openly accepts bribes. Is she really looking for death?

Su Ruojin didn't think there must be a deep meaning behind what he did, so what exactly was it?

She was just a thirteen-year-old girl, and she was leaving the capital tomorrow. It had nothing to do with her originally, and it would have nothing to do with her in the future.

Mr. Xue smacked his lips, "In the past, Mr. Yang had a clear sleeve, admonishing small officials and small historians, but now Mr. Yang..." This person used to be good or evil, but now it is hard to tell.

"Uncle Xue, why don't you continue?" Su Dalang wanted to ask, but his sister asked for him.

"You don't understand even if I tell you." Mr. Xue thought that the kid didn't understand.

Su Ruojin rolled her eyes, "What don't I understand? Is it Pan Kang, not running a shop?"

Mr. Xue:…

After sending Mr. Xue home, Mr. Xue realized it later and then remembered, "Ajin is going to Weizhou County to find brother Su?"

Su Ruojin didn't even bother to reply to him.

Su Dalang smiled and replied, "Yes, Uncle Xue."

"What about you?"

"I live in the Imperial College."

"Then..." The cost is not low! Mr. Xue stopped talking in time. Mrs. Su is a little expert in making money. Why not just live in the Imperial College? It is a piece of cake. Thinking of his son who loves to study, Mr. Xue is both proud and ashamed of his son. He waves his hand and talks to the two children of the Su family. goodbye.

The Su family brothers and sisters said goodbye, got into the carriage, and disappeared into Osmanthus Alley.

Mr. Xue let out a long sigh and did not look away from the entrance of the alley for a long time.

In just a few years, the small Osmanthus Hutong has changed.

Things are different and people are different!

When I got home, I didn't expect Zhao Lan to come again.

When Su Dalang saw the little prince, he happily bowed his hands in greeting and said, "An Zhi has met the little prince."

"An Zhi is polite. Don't be so polite when you see me in the future. I am your father's student, so you treat me like family."

Su Dalang was still immature and didn't hear the implication of this guy's words. He also didn't see the quarrel between his eyebrows towards his sister. He smiled slightly and said, "The etiquette cannot be discarded."

Zhao Lan smiled awkwardly.

Su Ruojin rolled her eyes secretly, "You are tall and powerful. From now on, I will call you brother. How will you call me brother?"

"Brother, I'm tired. You entertain the little prince." After saying that, he walked away swaggeringly.

How could Zhao Lan let her go? He turned to Su Anzhi and said, "There are still some things that need to be changed in the fire gun picture last time. I wonder if Anzhi..."

"I don't know how to do this, you'd better find Ah Jin!"

Sure enough, Su Anzhi followed Zhao Lan's wishes and pushed his sister towards him.

Hua Ping, Ye Huaizhen and others who were welcoming Zhao Lan... knew very well that this was just an excuse for the little prince, but they didn't expect Su Dalang to be convinced.

Mao Ya was secretly happy when she saw her little master got rid of the little prince. Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the yard, the little prince Zhao followed them.

A follower? This noble young master is so shameless!

Before he could roll his eyes, Shuangrui and his master walked in and passed by her. He looked away lightly, as if to say, squeezing you to death is like squeezing an ant to death.

Mao Ya:…

Su Ruojin was also impressed by this young man. She was so tired that she didn't care about him, so she leaned on the couch and fell asleep after a while.

Zhao Lan: ...You don't treat me like a family member, right? Do you trust me so much?

After sleeping until dark, Su Ruojin calmed down and got up to have dinner. After dinner, Su Ruojin took Zhao Lan to Su Dalang's study and studied the fire gun picture for a long time. Even Su Dalang became interested and played with it for half the night.

That night, Zhao Lan slept in the Su family's guest room.

The next day, Zhao Lan and Su Ruojin sent Su Dalang to the Imperial Academy together. Naturally, the two brothers and sisters said goodbye reluctantly for a long time.

Zhao Lan invited Su Ruojin to have breakfast at his restaurant before letting her go to Weizhou County. He said she would be sent outside the city, but she was still on her carriage until the night.

"Brother Zhao, aren't you going back?"

"I'll take you to Weizhou County."
