Chapter 170: Calculation
Mrs. Shangguan saw Song Xinshu's predicament, and directly put Shangguan Linglong aside, "I said you, can't these delicious pastries stop your mouth?" You always have to let Xin Shu take a breath and answer your questions! ”
Shangguan Linglong was caught off guard and was stuffed with a mouthful of pastry, and her big autumn eyes complained to Mrs. Shangguan, "Mother, am I still your biological daughter?" ”
Seeing that Shangguan Linglong was about to be trained, Song Xinshu naturally wanted to come forward, "Linglong, I don't see that business is very good today, so I went back with Su Qing to visit my father." I'm going to visit you just after I came back! ”
Shangguan Linglong took the pastry and devoured it, and said inarticulately: "Xin Shu, you are so good to me." It's a pity that my parents won't let me go out these days, so I can't help in your shop! ”
Song Xinshu is a little suspicious, could it be that the matter has been solved? Or is it that Master Shangguan is unwilling to let Shangguan Linglong intersect with her because of what happened last time?
For a while, Song Xinshu thought a lot in his mind, if he really had a bad relationship with the official family, then I am afraid that some things would have to be reconsidered!
Master Shangguan had already seen Song Xinshu's potential, so he naturally wouldn't make enemies with others, so he hurriedly said: "Xinshu, don't misunderstand, it's just that the marriage contract with the Lu family has just been dissolved, and Linglong should not go out at this time to show up, so as not to cause gossip." My Shangguan family is fearless, I'm afraid of endangering the girl! ”
The Lu family's actions were faster than Song Xinshu expected, but it must also be fueled by Master Shangguan.
The dissolution of the marriage contract can be regarded as a matter of her heart!
Shangguan Linglong is one of the few friends she has in this world, and her store can achieve the scale it is today, and the help of the Shangguan family is indispensable, she naturally hopes that Shangguan Linglong can be happy!
"Congratulations, Linglong! Don't complain, Master Shangguan, everything they do is for your good. Whatever you want to eat at noon today, just say it, I can satisfy you! ”
Shangguan Linglong's eyes lit up, she always knew that Song Xinshu's cooking skills were superb, and she could finally make a big chunk today.
said a string of dish names in a row, causing everyone in the hall to look at her, Shangguan Linglong was embarrassed, "Hmph, if you have the ability, don't eat it!" ”
Since it was to appease Shangguan Linglong, Song Xinshu was not stingy, and made almost all the dishes she wanted to eat.
The mouth-watering aroma kept wafting out of the kitchen, and the servants and maids who passed by couldn't help but stop, "This Miss Song's cooking skills are really good!" ”
"It really smells so good, I can't help it. I don't know if there will be a chance to eat the dishes made by Miss Song later! ”
……
The chef of Shangguan Mansion looked at Song Xinshu's skillful techniques, and his heart was also convinced, this girl is really too violent if she doesn't be a chef!
Song Xinshu put the fish fillets that had been processed long ago into a delicate plate, put condiments, and poured the hot oil in the pot on the fish fillets, and the spicy and fragrant taste immediately detonated everyone's taste buds.
The chef had never seen such a fresh method, and many dishes were handled beyond their imagination, "Miss Song, can you teach us these methods?" ”
Song Xinshu nodded, "Thanks to the chefs for not disliking it, the little girl is just an axe!" ”
The dishes with all colors and flavors were put on the table, and people were dazzled and didn't know where to start.
After being full of wine and food, Song Xinshu resigned, no matter how good this Shangguan Mansion is, it is not his own nest after all.
If it weren't for Shangguan Linglong, I'm afraid she wouldn't be willing to step into Shangguan Mansion again!
The day passed in a daze, and when Song Xinshu went back, Su Qing had already prepared a love dinner, and after the two finished eating, they sat in front of the window and chatted together.
"I don't know how long this torrential rain will last? It's just that those people have suffered, and this year's grain harvest may be ruined! Song Xinshu looked at the raindrops outside the window and said worriedly.
Su Qing also felt uncomfortable, there would inevitably be a famine after this heavy rain, and he didn't know if the imperial court would send someone to relieve the victims.
Originally, he wanted to stock up on a little food in case he needed it in the future.
But since he knew Song Xinshu's thoughts, he stopped thinking about it.
Song Xinshu worked hard to achieve today's situation.
Even if they can help the victims for a while, they can't help them for a lifetime.
After Master Lu returned home, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, Shangguan Linglong was rumored to be sick for no reason, and he didn't see her lingering sickbed with his own eyes, could it be that she was calculated?
But even if he knew that he had been calculated, the token had been returned, and the dissolution of the marriage contract was a foregone conclusion!
"Master, the slave just found out that Song Xinshu went to Shangguan Mansion today, and I heard that they had a very happy conversation, and in the end, it was sent out by Master Shangguan himself." The housekeeper looked at his master's face as he spoke, for fear that the war would affect him.
Master Lu's face changed abruptly, the young lady of the Shangguan family has always been good friends with Song Xinshu, since she has been dying for a short time, how can the Shangguan family still have a good conversation with Song Xinshu, there must be something in this that he doesn't know?
"I asked you to do things as soon as possible, plus the dissolution of the marriage contract between the two families, so that everyone thinks that the Shangguan family did something sorry for my Lu family!" Master Lu said.
At this time, Jinling Taishou Mansion is not calm at all, the heavy rain in the past few days has broken the river embankment, many people are in bad trouble, and now many people are like Jinling City!
"Lord Taishou, hurry up and think of a way. If the river is allowed to spread, there will be even greater losses! ”
"That's right, my lord, let's think of a way!"
……
The people under your hand kept talking non-stop, and the noise made Zhang Guodong's head hurt, and I didn't see how respectful these people were to him on weekdays.
This accident, one by two, came to the door.
If this matter can't be properly resolved, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it by writing a black yarn hat!
"Alright, you all go back first. Do your own thing, I will tell the emperor about this matter! ”
After sending those people away, Mrs. Taishou walked in with a cup of hot tea, "Husband, I see that you haven't slept well after working hard all day, drink some ginseng tea!" ”
Taishou picked up the teacup and put it down again, "Hey, I can't drink it." The thought of the people still suffering makes my heart ache. I don't know when this heavy rain will end? In the past few days, more and more officials have come to report to me that there has been a breach of the riverbank. ”
Fan stood behind Lord Taishou and squeezed his shoulder, "How can there be multiple river banks bursting?" Hasn't the matter of repairing the embankment always been in charge of the imperial court? ”
"Well, I don't know what's going on? However, the wine bags and rice bags in the court have always been insatiable, and they may embezzle the silver for the maintenance of the river embankment, and then use those inferior things to make up the money. ”
Mrs. Taishou has never cared about the political affairs of the court, but she can't see her husband's sad appearance, "Husband, we are soft-spoken, just do our own things, don't worry about those people." ”
"We haven't seen Xinshu for a few days, and we don't know if the heavy rain has affected her business, otherwise we should go and see her?" Mrs. Taishou said tentatively.
Lord Taishou's eyes lit up, he always knew that Song Xinshu had an idea, maybe she had a way to solve this matter?
"Yes, as Madame said. We're going to visit Xin Shu tomorrow, and I miss her pastries! Taishou-sama said happily.
Mrs. Taishou was unhappy when she heard this, "What? Do you dislike my craft when you say this? When I didn't have Xin Shu before, I saw that you were quite happy to eat, didn't you? ”
"Where, where, Madame said with a smile. How could a husband dislike his wife's craftsmanship! Taishou-sama carefully coaxed Madame.
The dark night is the best nutrient for breeding rumors, and overnight it was rumored in Jinling City that the Shangguan family and the Lu family had dissolved the marriage contract, which even involved Song Xinshu.
"Have you heard? The young lady of the Shangguan family fell ill after eating the pastries of the Taste Pavilion, and she was afraid of her life! ”
"Gee, what are you talking about. I heard that the proprietress of the Taste Pavilion fell in love with the young master of the Lu family, so she specially gave Miss Shangguan a problematic pastry, just to get the two families to break off the marriage contract, so she could take advantage of the situation! ”
……
"Oh my God, I really didn't expect her to be such a person, because I used to go to their house to buy pastries to eat! There won't be any problems! ”
Song Xinshu got up early in the morning and was ready to go to the restaurant to see the situation, and by the way to purchase some raw materials he needed.
But after going out, she found that something was wrong, and the people around her saw that she was dodging and dodging, and she was still muttering something.
At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, but when she was buying something, she was rejected by several stores in a row, so she felt that something was serious.
For a while, she couldn't care so much, and hurried back to the store.
happened to run into a guy who went out to buy, "I'm really angry, how can those people slander the proprietress so much." Obviously she is a kind-hearted person, but they say that she is a ruthless woman! ”
Song Xinshu called the guy to him and asked him about the matter.
The anger in her heart is also rising, and someone actually slanders her reputation again.
She thought about it carefully, as if she had done her duty in business recently, and she hadn't offended anyone.
If you really provoke someone, you won't think about it except Lu Fu!
It's just that how did they know that Shangguan Linglong's idea of pretending to be sick was from her, isn't it that Lu Fengzhi took a fancy to Linglong's family background and temporarily regretted it, so she designed such a play?
Either way, be sure to ask yourself.
