Even if he was dissatisfied with the third child's family, Su Gui still welcomed him home, after all, he was his younger brother, and besides, it was a big festival, so he couldn't make a big splash.

"Brother and sister-in-law, this is a gift for the children."

Su Xin took out several high-quality silks, two boxes of middle-grade tea, a basket of seasonal fruits, and several catties of moon cakes from the carriage.

This kind of gift is considered extravagant for ordinary people, the few bolts of silk and satin alone are worth more than ten taels of silver.However, coming from Zhou Yulian who is stingy and stingy, the sun really came out from the west.

"My nephew is not in good health, so I asked someone to find wild ginseng to supplement him."

The highlight was yet to come, Su Xin finally took out a box from the carriage, opened it very solemnly.

"This, how much money will it cost, we can't ask for it."

This is the first time in Su Gui's life that he has seen so-called wild ginseng. It looks like a small stalk, which looks like a carrot, but he also heard that ginseng is expensive!

"It's just over 200 taels of silver...we sent it here, how can there be any reason to take it back?"

Zhou Yulian pretended to be casual and authentic, but when she thought about giving away more than 200 taels of silver, it really wasn't an ordinary physical pain, her heart, liver, and heart ached so badly.Thinking about it instead, this is reluctant to let the child not be tied to the wolf, everything is for the daughter.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

Regarding the actions of the third uncle's family, Su Mo had only one thought in his mind, alas, what kind of relatives does this body have!Heck, what kind of wild ginseng is that small ginseng?Su Xin also bluffed his father - "Third Uncle hasn't come back in the past few years, I'm afraid I don't know, my illness has been cured long ago, you should keep this wild ginseng for yourself to eat!"

Cannibals are soft-spoken and short-handed, if this is accepted, no matter what requests people make, they will not be able to agree?

"Where is your child, even if you recover from your illness, you should make up for it. Look at how thin you are."

Su Xin was not willing to take the things back, although he was unhappy in his heart, he still practiced Tai Chi calmly on his face.

"..."

That loving tone almost made Su Mo spit out, he hasn't eaten yet, aren't we so disgusted?People who were unwilling to borrow a tael of money back then, who would believe such things now?

"Let's put it away for now, and we'll talk about it later, third uncle, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

It's not a solution to be so stiff, Osmanthus hugged Niu Niu and interjected, what's the matter?

"Just in time, your sister-in-law cooked a big table."

Su Guishicheng, although he was a little surprised by this younger brother's behavior, he didn't think much about it.The third child had a bright mind since he was a child, and later he started a business and bought a house in the town. Naturally, he couldn't guess what was going on in his mind.

"Sit down and eat."

Xiu Niang came out with three more pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and casually greeted warmly, "It's sure that nothing good will happen to this family, it depends on how long they can hold back."However, her family has only gotten a little better this year, and she really can't think of what advantage they can take advantage of with their family background.

"Sister Taohua, the material of your clothes is really good, and the embroidery is also good."

Su Wanrou sat across from Taohua, looking back and forth on her clothes, speaking with envy.

"It's just ordinary materials. How can we have money to buy good materials?"

Taohua Jiacai's hands paused, and said calmly, this cousin is as virtuous as her mother, if she speaks nonsense with her eyes open, there must be a trick for herself.

"Is that so... But this embroidery is really good, Sister Taohua, your skills are getting better and better."

Su Wanrou's face turned pale. If she hadn't asked for something, why would she look at this woman coldly here?Seeing that the other party was not fooled, he had no choice but to continue.

"Wanrou is also a dexterous child. She is still young now, and she will definitely be great in the future..."

Xiuniang didn't want to have a reunion dinner and make such a mess, seeing Zhou Yulian's expression was a little unsettled, she turned around.

"Hehe, sister-in-law is over the top. How can Wanrou compare to Taohua's ingenuity? Her skills are far behind! Besides, with the teaching of Sanniang, Taohua's embroidering skills are even more outstanding."

Zhou Yulian's face softened a little, she responded with a smile, and quietly revealed a little bit of her intention for coming tonight.

"What? Taohua, you have worshiped Sanniang as your teacher? Why didn't you tell us?"

Xiuniang was startled when she heard that, how powerful is Sanniang?How many daughters of rich families eagerly sent them in, but they all dismissed them. Unexpectedly, their own daughters became Sanniang's apprentices.This is a good thing, why are you still hiding it?

"Mother, the master has repeatedly explained that our relationship cannot be known by others, so I didn't say it. However, how do you three sisters-in-law know about this?"

Taohua simply explained to her mother, and omitted the twists and turns.Although she asked this question, she wasn't too surprised. There is no impenetrable wall in the world, but she still has to admire the methods of the third uncle's family. They can even inquire about such a secret.

Thinking about it, their coming today is probably related to this matter.

Su Xin said proudly: "It just so happened that a friend was working in the embroidery workshop, and I found out by chance." In fact, this was not the case at all. He paid a lot of money to buy the maid next to Sanniang, and only then did he know that his second niece had already I got there first.

Fortunately, those rich daughters even fought for "broken blood" for this, but they didn't know that Sanniang was just perfunctory them.Fortunately, I am smart and know how to find another way.As long as she climbs up to Sanniang, it means that she has connected with those high-ranking officials and nobles, and maybe her daughter can marry into a rich and famous family to enjoy the blessings in the future.

"We are here today to see the big brother and sister-in-law, and the second time, I want Taohua to help me with something." Zhou Yulian continued following the words of the master, "Wanrou wants to learn from Sanniang, Taohua you She is Sanniang's proud disciple, can you say something nice to your sister? Take Wanrou as a disciple too?"

"That's right, Sister Taohua, just help my sister out once!"

Su Wanrou blinked her eyelashes a few times, and said softly, she was born well, but she made a pitiful gesture at this time, which really made people want to agree.

It's just that Taohua knows exactly what kind of person is under the skin of the delicate little sheep of her cousin, and besides, she is not a man, so these little tricks are useless to her.

"Even if I agree to persuade, it's useless. The master has already said that only one apprentice will be accepted."

Co-authored, this family made such a calculation, saying why they suddenly became generous, and it was ginseng and silk.

"Is that so? Everyone knows that Sanniang is still selecting apprentices. If what you said is true, you are playing tricks on everyone!"

Su Xin raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, disapproving and authentic.Even if Sanniang only planned to accept one apprentice at the beginning, but now it is difficult to get off the tiger, if she does not accept another one, she will still offend those people in the town.

Taohua was speechless for a while, with a hundred secrets and a sparse one. At the beginning, the master really didn't think about it very well. He only wanted to let them restrain each other, but he didn't think about the current situation.

"..."

Su Mo listened clearly from the sidelines, is the third uncle counting as courtesy first and then soldiers?The gift was unsuccessful, so he changed the threat again.

"Taohua can't be the master of such a big matter. It's too late today, so you can stay." Although Su Gui didn't understand what was going on, seeing her daughter seemed to be in trouble, she helped her out.

What's more, it's difficult to walk at night, if you encounter a bandit—even if you feel annoyed at this younger brother, after all, he is a blood relative, you can't watch him in danger.

"What my father said is, I will ask the master what he means when I go back."

Taohua is not in a hurry, and now she can only procrastinate first, and then make another plan.

"It's only natural—"

When it comes to this point, Su Xin is not easy to press every step, a woman is a woman, even if the two add up, they are not his opponents.

If you want to procrastinate, you have made up your mind to spend it to the end!

"The east room has been idle, Yulian, you and the third child can sleep there! Wanrou, you can make do with Lanhua for one night."

Xiuniang was furious, but she couldn't prevent her man from coming down in front of outsiders, so she got up and cleaned up the east room.

"I do not--"

As soon as Su Wanrou heard that she wanted to sleep with Lan Hua, a nasty person, she subconsciously refused, but stopped under the signal of her parents.

"It's up to you, as long as you're not afraid of being bitten by mice in the middle of the night."

Lan Hua also knew that her mother's words were not negotiable, and deliberately used her words to scare people. She didn't believe that Su Wanrou, who was spoiled and spoiled, could still sleep?

Sure enough, Su Wanrou's face immediately paled when she heard it, but seeing Lan Hua's proud face, she insisted, "I'm not afraid!"

After going through this, Su Mo lost her appetite, put down her chopsticks and said, "I'll help."

At night, Su Xin and his daughter-in-law were sleeping soundly. Zhou Yulian suddenly felt a coolness on her face. She grabbed her hand and woke up immediately—"Snake, there is a snake!"

Su Xin was also awakened by the shrill cry, rolled out of bed, and hurriedly lit the lamp.

When the room was lit up, the couple trembled with fright. A silver ring snake more than one meter long was spitting out its core and making a hissing sound.According to Su Xin's common sense, this snake is poisonous.

| "Master, get rid of the snake quickly!"

Zhou Yulian's voice was full of tears, her whole body was stiff and she did not dare to move, in fact she was too frightened to move at all.

"I...if I bite, I will die."

Su Xin is not willing to take risks, staring at the corona snake, for fear that it will pounce on it in the next moment.

"Where is the snake?"

Su Gui was next door, and immediately ran over when he heard the cry, and saw the third brother and younger siblings all pale with fright.

"Swim away—"

Su Xin swallowed and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling like a dream.That snake, suddenly appeared, then suddenly left?

"..."

Su Gui was worried, and searched around the house again, but there was still nothing.In the middle of the night, I was very sleepy again, so I simply went back to the house and fell asleep.
