son-in-law

Chapter 95 Warning

"The matter of Siqingfang has been negotiated with the shopkeeper Yu over there. I can supply them before the sixth day of October, and there will be no problem in the future. I have an idea..."

In the Su family compound covered by the rainstorm, water droplets fell from the eaves like a curtain. In the reception room with the oil lamp on, Xi Junyu was talking to Su Taner about the progress of the business, and then Xing'er brought a handkerchief and asked him to wipe it. After wiping the wet place on her body, for a moment, Juan'er also came in with a tea tray, and placed a refreshment on the small table beside Xi Junyu.

"Boss Xi, please use tea."

"Trouble Juaner." Xi Junyu nodded with a smile, and then continued to talk about business matters with Su Taner, "Since Siqingfang has already started, I think we can invest about 1% more in Yuanzhou. About [-] taels, build two printing and dyeing workshops and warehouses, so that if you use Yuanzhou as the hub and then develop around, you can be sure..."

After he finished speaking, he waited for Su Tan'er's answer. Originally, the expansion of the Su family's business was basically the same steps, but at this time, Su Tan'er took a sip of tea and looked up at him, her voice a little low. : "Yuanzhou's side, although the time has come, it is not the most important thing recently. At this time... let's talk about it after a while."

Su Tan'er's voice was soft, and Xi Junyu had expected such an answer, but the gaze made him a little confused.When he met Su Tan'er, she was just a 12-year-old girl, but since Su Tan'er started to get in touch with the family business, in the past few years, this woman who has gradually grown into a girl and is now a married woman in name has always made him look What I don't understand.

Of course, that's just a little bit of feeling.Most of this woman's character, he admits, is still clear, including the pressure she has endured and the efforts she has put in under that pressure.

In the early years, probably from when Su Tan'er was 14 to 15 years old, I worked with him and the rest of the shopkeepers to discuss various business strategies.The girl occasionally has amazing ideas, but most of the time she is a little clumsy, and most of the ideas she comes up with cannot be used. When pointed out, she often smiles awkwardly, and then says in surprise: "It turns out that it will be like this..."

She has a soft and modest personality, is very kind to everyone, never loses her temper, and is not angry when her servants do something wrong, and she is not angry when others gossip because she is a woman.Of course, sometimes there are situations where I don't know how to deal with it, after all, I'm only a teenage girl.At that time she did not speak, with a smile on her face, pursed her lips hard, and waited silently.

Human emotions are very strange, there is no very clear watershed.Xi Junyu didn't know when he decided to stay in the Su family cloth shop.Xi Junyu's family was not good when he was a child. His mother died early, his father was sick, and he was an alcoholic. He was talented and intelligent since he was a child. Household, who knows, has been doing this all the time.

Smart people can do anything quickly, and Xi Junyu is a confident person who can do anything, not just in business.After a long time in business, you will gradually understand human nature and human heart. In his view, everything in the world is inseparable from the changes of these things, and reading or something is a side effect.

Just when he was doing some odd jobs in the Su family cloth shop, he helped to settle several businesses, and the money he earned was enough to make the family comfortable.Of course, he still planned to go back to study at that time. Later... It's hard to say how much the reason for staying at Su's house was related to the girl who always went to the cloth line, but there must be a large part of the reason.

He actually thought clearly. His family was poor, and it was actually very troublesome to study and take the imperial examinations. He couldn't afford to just give gifts and go through all kinds of relationships.And the feeling of being rich is actually quite practical.At that time, he probably set a relatively ideal route for himself. He worked in the Su family, became the shopkeeper and the big shopkeeper, and then joined the Su family. When Su Taner took control of the Su family, he could be on an equal footing with her.

At that time, he had already made his mark in the cloth industry, and he cooperated quite well with the 15-year-old girl who was constantly learning. He could also make up for some of the oolongs made by Su Tan'er in a very timely manner.Ever since he knew what Su Boyong and Su Tan'er were thinking, he knew that one day Su Tan'er would need a husband-in-law, and he was obviously the ideal candidate, and he himself didn't mind this kind of thing.

Incompetent people always expect status or innate factors of this kind - and of course they do have an impact - but for the truly capable people, they will know that their own abilities actually play a large part.For him, confidence no matter where he is, there will be opportunities to emerge, and people will always pay attention.The innate factor of being born into poverty cannot be changed, so it is not unacceptable to join the family.

Su Tan'er will understand her abilities and her character. Under such a tacit understanding, the two of them will be the most ideal partners after getting married.Some people may use the identity of the son-in-law to talk about things at first, but it doesn't matter, as long as his ability is displayed, others will naturally admire him. A year, two years... Facts will change everything.Su Tan'er also bears the shackles and can rush forward with her teeth gritted. What can't she do?

It's a pity that the later development was beyond his expectations, and the Su family must have considered him.Must have considered him.But in the end, the old lady decided to choose such an incompetent scholar.

The Su family... just for this man to control better.

Sometimes being too capable can be a disadvantage.He thought ironically at the time.He also thought that if it was him who arranged the marriage, Tan'er would definitely not make excuses to run away on the day of marriage.

He was very confident at first, knowing that the Su family had nothing to worry about when thinking about Ning Yi, but later the other party suddenly decided on Ning Yi, which made him feel astonished.Originally, I had the idea of ​​going directly to Su Tan'er to express my admiration in my heart, but only then did I realize the distance that this girl had kept from others all this time, and maybe she used to call him "Brother Jun Yu" , but soon became the shopkeeper Xi, and always used the title of shopkeeper Xi.

She may be soft and gentle, clever and cute, or playful and humorous, but more often than not, this girl actually keeps part of her mind on the sidelines, and that part may still find it interesting, curious, and watching. She will laugh cutely from time to time, but... she has always maintained an attitude of watching and learning.Smart people can learn anything very quickly as long as they use their hearts. This is what Xi Junyu knew early on.

It was only then that he discovered that his admiration was somewhat unspeakable, because people were not as kind as they thought.

He is also an arrogant person. If he ran over and said it, the girl on the surface might be very kind, soft and even sad, but the heart that was really watching didn't take him seriously at all. This is a result he can't bear. .

Later, Su Tan'er assumed the attitude of being a wife after getting married, which was something he had long expected.The identity issue was originally the main reason why Su Tan'er got married.I don't know what the scholar will do when he is with her. Su Tan'er will not make people unhappy on the surface, but the scholar must not be able to see what his wife's heart is like.

It's funny and pitiful to think about, they didn't even have the same room.Although the later development was somewhat unexpected to him, the scholar at least actually had some ways to learn.But in any case, it is certain that the appearance is compatible, and no one other than himself can really understand Su Tan'er.The heart that was hidden behind her was the sobriety that she had to force out under long-term pressure and loneliness.

If you want to take charge of the Su family as a woman, you will always encounter resistance. Even if you cry, no one will really sympathize. Even if the shopkeeper under him helps her under the instruction of Su Boyong, but in every business, He still thinks about the fact that the main family is a woman.Even if she continues to prove her abilities, and even becomes a figure like Wu Zetian at the age of 45, people will still consider her as a woman, and she can only maintain an absolute sobriety behind this.

It feels a little cold, a little lonely, and a little pitiful.She needs someone who can truly support her and share her adversity with her.Xi Junyu likes this feeling - right now he can only like and accept the status quo, the fact has already happened, complaining is useless, just think about doing something.

He sometimes felt that the figure in Su Tan'er's heart was a little unclear, and she was growing up, but in any case, in a sense, Su Tan'er was almost taught by him. Years, it will not get out of control for the time being.

Su Tan'er has already made a decision about Yuanzhou. He is only a "shopkeeper", so there is no need to say more.When necessary, both of them can be very talkative. At this time, Xi Junyu talked about a few interesting things he heard while chatting with shopkeeper Yu of Siqingfang, and then analyzed the possible things that might happen in and outside the city in connection with the situation of the recent disaster victims.He knows what Su Tan'er usually likes to listen to. Su Tan'er is really fascinated by the tea cup at this time, and occasionally nods her head and asks a few questions. The curious expression of a girl has not changed in the past few years.After all, this was a time when the news was not very well-informed, and a lot of news was indeed useful. When Xi Junyu talked about it, she was often ignorant of it.

Later, he also casually talked about the funeral of Xiaochan's father, and talked about when Ning Yi would be able to come back. The mention of this matter only stopped at the end, implying his own existence, which was different from Ning Yi's.Although it seems that some things have not entered the heart of the other party, maybe we can talk for a while tonight, and Ning Yi will be back tomorrow.

At this time, Xing'er held an umbrella and trotted in from outside the yard. She looked a little happy, nodded and smiled at Xi Junyu, and then ran to Su Tan'er's side: "Uncle and Xiaochan are back."

"Really?" Juan'er, who was standing behind Su Tan'er, spoke first, Su Tan'er also raised her head with a smile on her face, but she also frowned at the same time: "It's such a heavy rain, I'm coming back so late. Did it rain?"

"It's not. Oh, Dongzhu, who was driving the car, got wet. Uncle asked Dongzhu to take a bath first, and then instructed the kitchen to prepare some meals. They rushed back all the way, and they probably didn't have a good dinner."

"Yeah." Su Tan'er thought for a while, "Xing'er, let the kitchen prepare some food that my uncle likes to eat, and then prepare a bowl of millet porridge. I'm also a little hungry. I'll be there later... In addition, prepare some iced white fungus. The soup is mainly for Geng Huyuan and Dongzhu to cool off in the evening after eating it. They don't usually eat this. If you and Juaner want it, go and prepare some. I don't need it. Uncle and Xiaochan have dinner. I don't really want to eat this... uh, does Manager Xi want it?"

"I don't need it anymore. Since Uncle Ning and Xiaochan have come back, I don't have anything too important, so I will leave."

Xi Junyu smiled calmly, and Su Tan'er also nodded.

"If that's the case, I'll send you to the shopkeeper."

"No, it's raining heavily."

"It's fine, and I would like to hear more about Yuanzhou's plan just mentioned by the shopkeeper Xi."

You really want to hear it...Xi Junyu laughed in his heart, but then when he held up his umbrella and walked out with Su Tan'er and Juan'er, he still said a series of plans and ideas, whether it was about Yuanzhou The local customs and information on various joints and officials are all very detailed, so Su Tan'er nodded and listened.

The rain was roaring, and sometimes when walking on these roads, only the light of the courtyard in the distance could be faintly seen. It gave people the feeling that it was like a huge Su family mansion, and only the three of them were walking in the rain.It was only when he was near the side door that he could see that there were still people running in and out, all in a hurry, and his attendant was also waiting in the doorman over there.Xi Junyu took a deep breath when he walked under a courtyard corridor where he didn't need to hold an umbrella.

"Actually, although the Su family seems to be developing unchanged for more than a year, funds are being held back in various places. I understand these things clearly. You are already preparing, this is too big, and you don't want to. Said I shouldn't have mentioned it originally. But... it's really too big, if you lose everything, what does it mean, have you thought about it clearly?"

Su Tan'er stopped, looked at him quietly, pursed her lips, and said nothing.Her eyes were a bit complicated, as if she was saying sorry for not being able to tell you this. After all, she wants to take charge of the overall situation... Xi Junyu didn't mind this, just shook his head and sighed.

"I don't know when you came up with this idea. Maybe you thought about it a few years ago... You want to take Gong Yin, you want to be a royal merchant. This... Is that right?"

He looked at Su Tan'er and paused.

"It may have been better a few years ago, but since last year, the Xue family has also been thinking about the idea of ​​​​the emperor, or the Wu family has also been thinking about it. Your idea, now is the most difficult time, these things ,Do you understand?"

Under the rainy night, this is almost the most severe warning.Xi Junyu's consideration is his own...

***************
Sorry for the interruption yesterday.

I originally wanted to use an extreme method to maintain the update and stop this month, but, similar to the title, over the past few days, my body has issued a serious warning, palpitations, stomach pain, diarrhea, tingling scalp fatigue, all kinds of discomfort ,pain.The writing method I use is probably the most thankless one. Each chapter needs to set several points, which may be very subtle points, subtle emotions, hints, foreshadowing, not just a plot, just follow the line That's it, any lack of emotional brewing, or changes in some vocabulary, may make these points out of control, and make the whole chapter taste the same.Irrigation is almost a fantasy for me. When I write those trivial chapters, I have to grasp the emotions, and the mental effort is several times more than the main line.

Therefore, it often takes six or seven hours to write three thousand words and four thousand words, and even six or seven hours is not enough, and the brain consumes a lot.

It may sound complicated, but that's exactly what was written.In short, in order not to let myself die before I finish writing this book or go to the hospital next month, I still grit my teeth and change my routine. I must go to bed at eleven o'clock in the evening, wake up at seven in the morning, and go to the book review area every morning and evening to post This post, you can supervise it ^_^
Updates will work hard to maintain.
