The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 108 Poor people

Huaping was stared at by her, "Why are you, a little lady, staring at a grown man?"

 “That’s not right!”

 “What’s wrong?”

“Uncle Huaping, you seem to have met a happy event, or you have opened up some knots in your heart and become fatter.”

　　花平: ...She really got it right. He is just happy that the Detective Department has resumed normal operations.

Huaping is about to cry but has no tears. Has the seven-year-old lady become a spirit?

 “You just say you will do more whether you give me or not?”

Although Uncle Hua Ping is a little lazy, he is the backbone of the breakfast shop in important matters. With him, everyone in the breakfast shop can concentrate on working and making money.

Even if she knew that he had a problem with soup, Su Ruojin was still willing to make it for him. Not only would she make more soup, but in the cold winter, she would add either a clay pot or a hot pot, so that he could enjoy his meal anyway.

Mr. Shen, who was eating and drinking along, felt uneasy: "Young lady, didn't you ask to the end?"

Hua Ping said proudly, "Don't think Su Erniang is young, but she knows what to ask and what not to ask. Never say a word. It's comfortable to get along with her!"

The more he said this, the more Mr. Shen wanted to meet Mrs. Su, "How about I go to Su Ji for breakfast?"

 “This is your business and has nothing to do with me.”

Mr. Shen: ...How come the pot was thrown away so quickly?

As a student of Dr. Su, the little master can eat and drink. Hua Ping is not only Su Ji’s guard but also the Su family’s boxing master. He eats and drinks at the Su family almost every day, and interacts with delicious food every day. How happy!

 Mr. Shen became more and more sad the more he thought about it, "It would be great if Dr. Su's family hired Mr. Xixi."

Hua Ping chuckled and said, "Dr. Su is a master of the Imperial College, so we still need to recruit Mr. Xixi?"

“That’s right, Su Erniang’s father’s status is not good. He has to be a doctor of the Five Classics, which blocks my way to gourmet food.”

 Huaping:…

The two were having a heated verbal spat when Jiang San came over with a secret message. Mr. Shen opened the wax-sealed note and his expression changed with just one glance.

Hua Ping and Jiang San waited for Mr. Shen to speak with serious faces.

“Our people sent news that spies from Liaoxia Kingdom have reached out to Xifu.”

The Dayin Dynasty had a system of two offices and three divisions. The two offices refer to the subordinates of Zhongshu. The place where they governed was called the Zhengshitang, which was the office of the prime minister, also known as the East House. The opposite Privy Council was in charge of administrative and military affairs, also known as the West House.

Harvest in autumn and store in winter. Compared with the Yin Dynasty, which had developed agriculture, winter was not so easy for the Liaoxia people who mainly engaged in animal husbandry. Therefore, in winter, wars of all sizes continued in the border areas. , mainly because the Liaoxia people went south to plunder food, salt, cloth, etc. In order to successfully plunder, the Liaoxia Kingdom also sent spies to Kyoto in the Central Plains to spy on the military situation to ensure victory in the war.

Hua Ping asked: "The Privy Council is not an ordinary place. How can you have access to officials of third grade or above without a certain status level?"

Jiang San also put forward his own opinion: "Either this spy has been operating in Dayin for a long time and has a certain official position, or he is using connections to pay bribes. But I think the honey trap comes quickly. What do you think?"

 Speaking of beauty traps, whether it is a brothel, a music house or a priest's house, these places are a mixed bag of good and bad, and it is easiest to succeed.

Mr. Shen looked at the two of them and said, "Let's get together tonight."

Ding's identity documents and birth history were finally completed. After practicing his skills, Hua Ping informed Su Ruojin, "You can 'buy' someone."

 “You won’t be found out, right?”

Hua Ping had a look of disgust on his face, "Are you still worried about me doing things?" He was just too relieved. When Su Ruojin looked at Hua Ping now, she always felt that he was more than just a helper, "Or are you a police officer placed outside by the Imperial City Division?" Like those mysterious Jin Yiwei in the Ming Dynasty, they hid in the crowd to find out news, and then reported the news to the emperor, who asked the emperor to kill people.

 “You also understand this?”

"No way, Uncle Hua, you are really..."

Hua Ping glared at her and said, "Did you read too many words in the book? If I were a police officer and could still work as a guard in your house, would I get two taels of silver?"

Su Ruojin raised her eyebrows, saying she didn't believe it, but she stopped asking: "Anyway, my father is an eighth-grade Ph.D. in the Five Classics. Even if you are a Chazi, it doesn't matter. There is really nothing to explore about him."

Huaping stretched out his hand and slapped Su Ruojin on the forehead, "I think all day long, be careful not to grow taller. If I don't grow taller, no one will want me. What will I do if I can't get married?"

Su Ruojin: ...This is her master after all. He cursed her not to get married when she was only seven years old, so she has no grudge against him!

Su Dalang defended his sister, "Even if she can't get married, I will support her for the rest of her life."

Huaping interrupted mercilessly: "What you eat and drink now are all earned by your sister, right?"

Su Dalang:…

Su Ruojin stretched out her hand and hit Huaping: "You stinky master, you are looking for a beating, right?"

The stinky master is actually trying to instigate a relationship between the brother and sister. If not him, who will he hit?

Su Ruojin chased Hua Ping and made a fuss, but she didn't let him go until he promised that he would never say similar words again.

“I didn’t expect that you’ve only been practicing for two months, but your hands and legs are not that slow!”

"Of course." She was not practicing for fun. When she went out to do business in the future, she had to be able to protect herself. If she couldn't even protect herself, why bother learning.

As soon as Cheng Yingzhen heard that she could 'buy' her aunt back, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night.

 Early on the next morning, Su Ruojin took Shu Tongshu to the Yaxing Bank to ‘buy people’. Unexpectedly, she met the girl who was besieged in front of her house last year.

 “Where is your mother?”

 The girl seemed to be numb from the trauma. She was even more numb than when Xianggui first came to the Su family. She seemed to have lost her brain and became stupid.

Yaren said angrily, "Do you know her?"

“Last year, she was caught by her tribe in front of my house. I heard that the tribe sent her and her mother to prison.”

Yaren really wanted to get rid of this money-losing thing, so she quickly recounted her experience, "I heard that her mother was sold to a fool, and she was sold to an old man. In the end, within three months, the old man died, and the old man's children were gone. She was sold to a middle-aged widower, but the middle-aged widower went out to do business and fell into a pond and died. The third time she was sold to a fool like his mother, but the fool hit the wall and died... This It’s done, no one wants it anymore…”

Su Ruojin: ...Boss, you said you must get rid of these people, why do you feel like you want to keep them in your hands?

The Yaren sneered, "As long as you buy this old lady, I'll give it to you as an extra."

Su Ruojin didn't say anything. Shu Tong refused, "If you buy an old lady, just buy an old lady. We don't want any extras."

Last year, when the Su family was just starting out, their small stalls were confiscated and they were almost unable to do business just because of these two women. They were really unlucky.

Li Xiuzhu lives up to her name. She is as thin as a bamboo. Standing in front of Su Ruojin's master and servant, you can't even feel her breathing, as if she is a living dead.

Last year, Su Ruojinguang was thinking about how to get out of the predicament after being plotted against him. He didn't notice that the poor couple met by chance today, and they didn't want money.

 “I want it.”
