"Since elder sister Yue is busy, go quickly." Seeing that the master's chest was heaving, Fengxian obviously couldn't hold back the anger, so she hurriedly sent away the daughter-in-law of the Yue family, and said softly, "Grandma, calm down, as long as ginger Once my aunt makes a fuss, how many days will Grandma still be able to dance? We are not in a hurry."

"Huh! Jumping around for a few days? Look at this posture, will the master snub her because of this? Don't say master, even the old lady, I'm afraid they won't say anything because of this. At most, they will reprimand and neglect her." It’s just a day. After a year or so, if she makes a few more delicacies, won’t she be revived?”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help showing hatred on his face, secretly thinking that the haste of the preparations at the beginning actually let Brother Chuan escape this disaster. If I had known this before, I should have been patient and waited for a few more days, and then I was ready. Are you afraid that there will be no chance? well! It's a pity, it's a pity, if that little bastard dies, this woman will shed her skin even if she doesn't die, and there will be no day of turning around, the Hou Mansion can't tolerate a woman who has harmed the flesh and blood of the master no matter what.

When I arrived at the house of Mrs. Fang, I saw Mrs. Yang, Liu Min, Su Nuannuan, Aunt Lin and others were all there. Xu Ranyun pressed all his concerns, and after meeting each other, he smiled and said: "I'm late, it's not my fault." , I just said that I came out early today, but I didn't expect everyone to arrive in such a cold day."

Mrs. Fang laughed and said, "It's so cold outside? Seeing that your face is pale."

Xu Ranyun said: "Isn't it? There's no wind, it's just dry and cold. But now it's all over, the old lady's room is really warm like spring, I just feel warm on my body." After finishing speaking, he looked at it again. He pretended to be happy and said, "That's great. I only said that I came late, but there are others who are later than me. The second younger brother and sister are always courteous in front of the old lady, why are you late today?"

Before the words finished, a voice from outside the screen said with a smile: "I just met two stewards when I went out. They pestered me and insisted on asking for instructions to go down and do things first, so it was too late." The old lady saluted, looked at Su Nuannuan and said with a smile: "Good sister-in-law. You are free today. Our master is still waiting for the candied vegetables you mentioned. If you don't say anything, hurry up and give him the recipe. .”

"What candied vegetables?" Mrs. Fang immediately asked, before Su Nuannuan could speak. Shi Yurou hurriedly said: "The old lady doesn't know? That's right, my sister-in-law said that I only did it once in the palace. I heard that the empress and your highnesses are full of praise, but I have never seen it in our house. Sister-in-law, why is this?" ?”

Su Nuannuan glanced at Shi Yurou. Although this woman is friendly with herself now, whenever she has the opportunity, she still doesn't forget to dig a hole for herself. He smiled immediately and said: "The candied vegetables are too sweet, they are all wrapped in sugar. People in our mansion like to eat sweets, but if we eat too many sweets, there will be no harm but no benefit. I will make this when I go to the palace last time. It was also because the empress had a bad appetite, so I made a candied fruit to appetize her. Now, some victims of the snow disaster have come to the capital. The second brother somehow found out about this, and asked me for a prescription. So I said that I would give him the prescription and exchange it for two thousand taels of silver to make clothes and bedding for the refugees. Originally, this was not a big deal, but the old lady was curious, so she must get to the bottom of it.”

Mrs. Fang smiled and scolded: "Bah! You girl is getting bolder, even I dare to arrange a run, what is the bottom line? Just say that my ears can be pricked up when I hear it? Since you say that, You don’t need to make too much, as soon as the new year is coming, you can make some, and everyone can just eat it as a New Year snack, won’t it be enough?”

Su Nuannuan smiled wryly and said: "Old lady, it's not that my granddaughter-in-law is lazy, it's just that the people in our house eat too much sweets, sweet soup, milk and cream for snacks every day, and there are still many dishes in the kitchen that need sugar, Not to mention all kinds of porridge, now with the shredded fruit, it’s no good, too much, it’s not good for the teeth.” She couldn’t explain what diabetes is to everyone, so she had to push the teeth out, sweets are bad for the teeth. Bad teeth are common sense.

The old lady Fang didn't agree, she only said that she wouldn't eat too much, but Su Nuannuan finally agreed, and the old lady laughed like a child asking for candy, and suddenly heard the next song Xu Ranyun said with a smile: " It turns out that my sister has already got two thousand taels of silver from the second master. If that is the case, why use the private treasury? I thought my sister was short of money, so I originally thought about taking some money out to help, but now it seems that it is not necessary Yes, sister is too, it is a good thing to do good deeds, and we should give us a chance."

Su Nuannuan's eyes lit up, and then they turned into crescent moons. Honglian next to her looked at her and almost laughed out loud. She quickly turned her head to the side and lowered herself, thinking to herself, Grandma Yun, Grandma Yun, you really have a hard time You don't need to be wise, just rely on you? Dare to plot against grandma? Didn't she get tricked too much in the past? Now grandma is going to do good deeds, and you bump into her, how can this let you go

Sure enough, Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "What my sister said is true, but I was negligent. How dare I have the guts to block everyone's way of doing good and accumulating virtue? Since my sister said so, you should help me if you should. Send it to me, and I will keep every penny and spend it on the victims. I started doing this ten days ago, and now I am familiar with it, and I will never waste a single penny. Alas! I heard that the victims are very good Thousands, those honorable families and the government only know how to give out porridge. In such a cold weather, what is the use of eating enough? If there is no place to stay, I will freeze to death. So I don’t have the heart to study recipes these days I'm only busy with this matter, and I'm worried that I don't have much money on hand. The private treasury is my master's private treasury. Even if I can ask for money with a shy face, I don't dare to come all the time, right? Now that my sister is willing to help, it can be regarded as Solved my urgent need, but I don’t know how much my sister will give? I didn’t think carefully before, probably everyone here thinks the same as my sister, it doesn’t matter, there must be celebrations in the family of charity, everyone wants to donate money, even though it’s all sent to me Come here, my accounts are clear and clear, and I am sure that every penny is used for the victims.”

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Ranyun's face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on his body, and he cursed crazily in his heart. Eighteen generations of Su Mengnuan's ancestors were lying innocently behind him. God knows that this black-bellied foodie is not at all Their offspring granddaughter.

Mrs. Yang couldn't laugh or cry, looking at Su Nuannuan, she didn't even know whether it was love or hate. Although she hated Su Mengnuan deeply before, this Mrs. Hou Ye is still kind in nature. She heard that Su Nuannuan was considerate for the victims and did good deeds ingeniously. She agreed with it very much. It's just... Do you want to harm Xu Ranyun like this? Didn't you put her on the fire? It doesn't look good if you take too much and don't take less. That's not enough, you have spared everyone again, those who don't want to take money, don't they hate Ran Yun to death because of it? This kid said he was kind, and now he is kind, but how could he harm people with such insidious tricks

Mrs. Yang thinks this way, so it can be seen how much Liu Min and Shi Yurou hate each other. They complained fiercely in their hearts: Pooh! What do you mean asking for money with a shy face? Don't dare to come anyway? The prince is now obedient to you and obeys you, pretending that we don't know? It is said outside that Anping Hou Shizi loves his wife like his life and fears his wife like a tiger. Do you think we have never heard of it? Now who is showing the face of the pissed off daughter-in-law? Do you open your eyes and talk nonsense like this? Shameless, so shameless.

Just as I was thinking about it, Su Nuannuan turned to Shi Yurou with a smile and said, "Thanks to Sister Yun today, since I have spoken out, I will simply be thick-skinned. Brother and sister, our master's private treasury has paid out five thousand dollars." Two taels, the second brother's private treasury probably isn't as much as ours, but at least it's time to think about it? Well... what do you think of two thousand taels..." Before she could finish speaking, seeing Shi Yurou's complexion changed drastically, she said quickly: "It's me It's my fault, I shouldn't underestimate the second master and my younger siblings, let's say three thousand taels, no matter how much you can do, I know you are rich, but anyway, we are big families, you can't go past us, can you? OK, then it's settled."

Mud horse, who made an agreement with you? Two thousand taels... no, three thousand taels? Why don't you take a knife to cut my flesh? Shi Yurou was going crazy, fortunately she was sitting in a chair at the moment, otherwise she would have to sit on the ground, and forced a smile that was uglier than crying, she said repeatedly: "Two thousand taels... a lot, Our grandfather dare not compare with the uncle."

"Oh, they are all from my own family, why be humble? Let me tell you, if you are too modest, you are proud. Once you are proud, do you still have to take out five thousand taels? Isn't this forcing us? Alas! Our family has no food left... Yu Yin."

Shi Yurou really cried, but when she heard the last two words, she immediately swallowed her tears back in fright, and said repeatedly: "Three thousand taels... Three thousand taels will be enough, we won't be able to get any more... "

"Second brother and sister are indeed just like sister Yun, they are kind-hearted people who are eager for justice and righteousness."

Su Nuannuan nodded "moved", and her heart was full of joy: People in this era are simple and honest, and there are very few fraudulent donations. Those poor children, women and children made some cotton-padded quilts, which made these women's hearts ache, and she was very happy.

Xu Ranyun, you bastard.

With Su Nuannuan's reminder, Shi Yurou instantly pointed the finger at Xu Ranyun: If she hadn't brought up this topic, everyone could pretend to be confused and let Su Nuannuan make troubles. It's a good thing now, I lost three thousand taels of silver for nothing, the second master's shop agreed to give away two thousand taels, and exchanged a recipe for shredded vegetables, but I was extorted by three thousand taels, and I still have nothing fishing.

The more Shi Yurou thought about it, the angrier she became, the more she felt aggrieved, because she looked at Xu Ranyun and said coldly: "Everyone is picking up firewood, and since Sister Yun wants to get money, it must not be too little, otherwise how can I explain to my sister-in-law? I know you are a rich man, but now the private treasury is managed by my sister-in-law, I am afraid that you will not be able to get much money out, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so you can get two thousand taels, right?"
