The Imperial Concubine Chef

Su Xinyu will definitely leave fifty taels of silver for the Tian Family. She had also made it very clear that the fifty liang was an extra sum. It was Tian Liyong's hard work and money and it also made up for the fact that the Tian Family was temporarily unable to continue buying sheep pancakes.

But this reason could not be accepted by the Tian Clan members. The secret recipe was all Su Xinyu's, the money from selling it was naturally all Su Xinyu's. Although fifty taels was not a small amount to their family, they could not just ignore the truth for the sake of money.

Madam Liu felt that all the silver was actually her Xinyu's. But she also felt that Su Xinyu's words made sense. The Tian Clan members were shocked by the beating. With Tian Liyong busy doing all this, and with the help of Tian Liyong's master, it was only right that they split the silver. Don't decline. Xinyu decided to do as she said. If you decline, then how can we have the nerve to come and join you guys in the future when we have something to do? "

Su Xinyu nodded strongly: "That's right. It's exactly what the Seventh Grandmother said. "

However, the Tian brothers and their two daughter-in-laws still felt that they could not take it. In the end, Doctor Tian nodded. "Alright. Since this silver was for bravely coming back, then he would leave it for bravery to marry off his wife. This was also his little sister helping his big brother. As old people, let's not get involved. "

"This time, Tian Liyong was even more confused. Grandpa. "How can this work?"

Doctor Tian was getting impatient. Say it if you can persuade the girl. If it doesn't work, take it. Since the silver belongs to you, you can use it however you want. I got a headache from all of you, so I'm going back to rest for a while. " With that, the old tutor went back to his room.

The people who were left behind were stunned for a long time, but in the end, the Madam Liu still laughed. Then this is your family's business. We'll go back first. " So the Madam Liu dragged and left.

When the only ones remaining were his family members, Tian Liyong started to sweat profusely. I... "This silver …" I really can't take it!

The Madam Ping did understand, but after seeing her father-in-law acknowledge it like that, she understood after thinking about it. Alright. Let's not be hypocritical. Since the little girl has already given us the silver, let's accept it. Brave One, take it to the town and break it open. Our family is worth ten taels of silver to your second uncle's family, leave the rest to your grandfather. Mainly because of when will Xinyu and her wife be helped out? "

However, the Madam Soong still felt that something was amiss, "Sister-in-law, if this gets out, our family will be exposed!"

The Madam Ping sighed: "How can you speak of this? Isn't that just taking Wenlan's and the little girl's lives? Father just said that. I see. Xinyu is really doing this for our benefit, otherwise, how would it be our turn? That child knows how to repay favors, and she truly regards us as a family. Just think about it, with Chow Dalang's family of three and Zhou Sanlang's appearance, would he be able to treat the girl and Wenlan well in the future? If something happens in the future, we'll have to help the two of them. Although we should be helping them, not drawing the silver. But we must at least let the little girl and Wenlan be comforted in their hearts. We can't let them feel that they owe us all the time. "Well, we all have to think about it."

Hearing Madam Ping's words, the Tian Family people understood. Regardless of whether Su Xinyu meant it that way or not, they felt that it was so.

In fact, Su Xinyu wanted more than just this amount of silver. The two kilograms he left behind in the Four Seas Grocery Shop were sold to the Hundred Scented Fragrance at a high price. Xu Sihai couldn't help but admire the little girl's brain, thus he kept praising Tian Liyong as the sworn sister of hers, as he was the leader of the group.

These matters naturally reached Shangguan Lin's ears. Listening to Xiao Tong coming back to report this to him. Shangguan Lin could not help but laugh. That girl was indeed different from the others. I thought she might be able to hold the stall if she heard we might be able to help. Now it seems that I am narrow-minded. "

Xiao Tong didn't know whether to laugh or cry because of the Zhou Family girl's choice. "Miss Zhou's thoughts seem to have always been different. Especially since she sold those Western Fennels at the end, even Xu Sihai did not expect her to do so. "

"Since this matter has been successfully resolved, that's good. Is there any news from Wang Bin? "

At this point, Xiao Tong's expression became serious: "There is no news from the Guard camp, but just as this servant arrived at the county city, I heard a rumor that it was a great drought in the east of the river and the emperor sent Lou Qiming to provide assistance in the east of the river. In the end, they met with bandits midway through, and a hundred thousand loads of food and two hundred thousand silver taels of relief money were taken away."

Hearing that, Shangguan Lin instinctively slammed the table: "Bullshit! With such a large amount of resources and money, he would at least need three thousand officers and soldiers as his followers. In addition, he would also need the protection of the Royal Guards. Where did all these robbers get all of them? "

Xiao Tong's face was also grave, "This is clear to see that Lou Qiming is a self-thief, acting out a plan to steal these relief supplies. "And this servant is worried …"

"Are you worried that he will blame this on Fourth Brother and me?" naturally would not think of things that he could think of.

Xiao Tong sighed: "Although it's bad luck, but this is exactly what I'm worried about. As you know, ever since the scandal about the Third Prince was exposed, the Lou Clan's movements started to increase. Although the Emperor still doted on them, he still spoke ill of them. Even the court had scolded Lou Cheng several times. This was something they had never done before. Recently, the emperor's health hasn't been very healthy … "

"When he thought about the possibility of the Lou Clan forcing her into a palace, Shangguan Lin immediately stood up. "Pack your bags at once, and we will set off for Hai'an."

Xiao Tong accepted the order: "Then what about the preparations here …"

Shangguan Lin frowned slightly, "Stay here. I'm not at ease with others either."

Although Xiao Tong wanted to stay by Shangguan Lin's side, he was someone who understood the importance of this matter. "Rest assured, this servant will not disappoint!"

The news of the great robbery in Jiangdong soon spread throughout the country. Even the small Two-boundary Village was known by everyone.

After farming, it was already winter. This was also the most leisurely time of the year for farmers. On the Madam Liu's side, many wives gathered together to chat. Su Xinyu was also among them. It wasn't that she was fond of this, but that she could hear a lot of useful information from it.

When she heard the Madam Zhang say that Jiang Dong's relief supplies had been robbed, Su Xinyu did not believe it at all. Then what kind of trash were the officials? Besides. Forget about the hundred thousand vehicles, even if it was just a hundred thousand loads of food, it would be as heavy as a mountain, right? How many thieves could move so many things quickly? In her previous life, when she was reading novels and listening to reviews, she didn't believe ten thousand times in this kind of story. Now, he definitely didn't believe it either. If it weren't for the fact that relief officials were keeping a low profile, it would be hard to believe.

However, this matter had nothing to do with her. Just listen and it will be over. Who would have thought that before the end of the year, the Imperial Court would issue a conscription order, saying that there was a great bandit rebellion in the east of the river, and that they wanted to gather troops to suppress it.

In a short period of time, every household in the village was in danger of losing their lives. Great Yan's conscription had always been two against one, three against two. However, each household could only recruit two people at most. There were fifteen to fifty men in the house, all of whom were in conscription. Only those with a high status could be exempted from military service, the rest could only be bought with silver coins.

For example, the Tian Family had four grown men. Because the Doctor Tian was already over fifty, they wanted to recruit two people. Tian Liyong received his master's signal and directly entered the army camp. The Tian Clan paid another 10 silver coins to support a person's military service. This matter was already over.

When they reached Zhou Tian's home, because there was a High Scholar in the Zhou Family, when Zhou Sanlang went out, he himself could still avoid another person's military service. But Zhou Tian was only forty-nine years old this year, so even though he looked like an old man normally, he was indeed not that old. Adding Zhou Shitou, he was already a full fifteen years old. This family had to have one more person after they went to military service. It was going to be a big problem as to who would be the culprit.

If it was anyone else, they would have just dragged her away. Seeing that Zhou Sanlang was the only High Scholar in the county, the bailiff gave him some face. Let them want it in three days. They could either pay him or send him out. Dragging was useless.

It was impossible to send someone. Zhou Tian was the family's patriarch, and also the father of a High Scholar. If he were to go out, Chow Dalang and Zhou Shitou's spine would be stabbed to pieces. But he couldn't go to Chow Dalang either. If he were to become a soldier, forget about being unable to come back, even if he were able to, it would take at least two to three years. Then, Zhou Tian himself wouldn't be able to handle all the work in these two to three years. He didn't think he could count on that big grandson of his. In truth, Zhou Shitou was the most suitable person, young and strong, so he could be considered half a child. However, Madam Wang felt that letting her son join the army was equivalent to taking her life. Even Zhou Shitou would not be able to endure such hardships. If he went, he would be courting death.

If you don't, you'll have to pay money." This year, Chow Dalang and the rest had earned more than two liang. Those were all for Zhou Shitou's wedding. Zhou Tian actually had five liang of it in his hands. Other than selling the grains in the fields, most of them were left for Zhou Sanlang to use in the capital after earning from selling the embroidery items. Even if they all took it out and collected it all from their families, it wouldn't be more than eight taels of silver. Even if they took it out and gathered all of their family's silver, it wouldn't be more than eight taels of silver, it wouldn't be much closer than ten taels of silver, but they knew clearly that their debt of fifty taels of silver had not been paid. Furthermore, everyone in the village was thinking of ways to get the money. This was because the Madam Liu did not need to pay military service, the Tian Family did not lack money, otherwise, if they wanted to pay the bill, they would be forced to death.

Hearing that Zhou Tian had decided to send him for military service, Su Xinyu frowned. He did not feel sorry for this lucky grandfather of his, but that was hard to say for sure. Zhou Tian was not the only one who was poked in the spine when he went to military service. The two of them, including that little girl and her dad, weren't in a good situation either. People would definitely say that their family of three enjoyed happiness, and that everything was up to their brother, sister-in-law, and biological father. This was way too different from the good reputation that he wanted.

Therefore, she pulled on Madam Liu's hand: "Seventh Grandmother, borrow the little girl's private money from grandfather by five liang. But there had to be papers. Write your name. "

They all knew that Su Xinyu had some private money, and it was also something that she and Madam Su had tacitly agreed on. After all, the idea of making money was something the little girl could come up with. There was no reason for him not to give it to her. However, Madam Liu did not expect him to give five taels of silver to the Bottomless Pit. Girl. Your grandfather might not be able to get out. "

Su Xinyu shook her head. However, with these words, if they treat Mother and me badly in the future, you can always save us. "

Madam Liu sighed, "You! It's hard for you to think about it that long. All right. In any case, we ladies aren't short on money, so we'll just borrow it. It was also good to let them have a debt. It's been a year, and your grandparents are kind of popular. that auntie of yours still has a cousin … Sigh, it's hard to say. "
