The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 129 Junior Sister

Su Ruojin rolled his eyes, "Uncle Shi, are you relying on me?"

 History 2:…

 It's definitely okay to be lazy, but does hugging someone's thigh count?

Whether it was due to instinct or talent, Shi Er struggled to get out of the quagmire of historians, but as Su Ruojin commented on him, his business qualifications were average. If he was forced by the environment, his qualifications could still improve.

No, with Su Erniang as a kind and thoughtful little boss, Shi Er suddenly relaxed and stopped thinking. He habitually came to ask the little boss what to do?

Although he was in his thirties, he looked at her like a child with a flattering expression. Su Ruojin shook his head, "Second Uncle Shi, you live your life by yourself, and the same goes for business. You have to use your own brains."

"I...you...also said that my business acumen is average. Can we be like the Lu family, where our two families share the income, I am responsible for contributing, and you give me ideas?"

"I don't want to give you a chance to get money alone?" Su Ruojin felt strange.

 In front of Su Ruojin, Shi Er never told lies: "I...I don't have that ability."

Su Ruojin didn't take a fancy to Shi Er's ability to do business, so he asked his mother-in-law to learn breakfast skills without asking for money. She also asked Mother Dong to tell her a story, which was to let the couple run their business well and live a good life. I thought that Shi Er was self-aware and insisted on embracing the Su family.

Even though I got this thigh through the little prince and Master Fan, it is still a thigh!

Finally, Su Ruojin agreed that Shi Erjia would use the Suji brand name and become a franchise store of the Su family, with a 37-to-3 ratio, three to the Su family and seven to the Shi family.

After the negotiation, Su Ruojin thought for a while, Shi Er’s qualifications were like this, what about the child?

 So he asked: "How old is your oldest child?"

Shi Er quickly said: "It's already sixteen."

“Can you read and calculate accounts?”

Shi Er shook his head, "If you can't even eat, how can you afford to learn these things?"

"how many kids do you have?"

“My mother-in-law had five or six pregnancies, and only three boys survived. The second one is twelve years old, and the third one is seven years old.”

The ancients did not have contraceptive measures, and there was such a big age difference between the children. It seemed that there were children who died in infancy, and the surviving children were all boys. Could it be that they were girls... I don't know what I thought of. Su Ruojin's scalp felt numb for a while, and he looked at it with a very unkind look. History II.

Shi Er seemed to understand the look in the little lady's eyes, and quickly assured, "Some of them were gone in my mother-in-law's belly, and some were gone before the full moon. I really haven't drowned the baby girl like others."

Su Ruojin snorted coldly, "It's best to tell the truth. If I know that you favor boys over girls and hurt girls, I won't cooperate with you."

 “No, no, no…”

Of course, Shi Er was as patriarchal as people nowadays, but he didn't feel guilty. Two of them were indeed aborted in the belly, and one was born a girl. But it was not Shi Er and his wife who died for shame. His mother, Mrs. Shi Zhang, had her child stolen during confinement and drowned to death. Her mother-in-law cried so hard that she almost went blind.

Since she was joining the franchise, Su Ruojin asked Uncle Shutong to take her out of the city to Wenshan Street to see the unsightly courtyard that Shi Erkou mentioned and how to set up a breakfast stall. By the way, she made snacks and brought them to the academy for her brother. Cheng Yingzhen also asked her daughter to bring them Change clothes and "bring back the dirty ones."

Su Ruojin agreed to bring clothes, but she would not do it even if there were servants at home to bring dirty clothes back. She asked Su Dalang to go to Dongshan Academy, one of which was to let him take care of himself independently.

Su Dalang wanted to pursue an official career. The officialdom was ups and downs, and life was full of ups and downs. Once he fell into adversity, without his servants, he would not even be able to take care of himself, so how would he have a chance to make a comeback.

Su Ruojin promised, but thought she would never bring her back.

The spring breeze in February was like scissors. Shutong drove the little master to Wenshan Street in Dongshan in a mule cart. Shi Er and his third son followed in the car. The three boys were all thin and dark. When they saw Su Ruojin, they were not shy. He lowered his head and stared curiously.

Mao Ya glared at the youngest boy, "Don't look around."

Seven-year-old Shi Sanlang Shi Baoxiang bared his teeth and smiled, "The little lady is beautiful."

Su Ruojin:…

In order to see how the three sons of the Shi family were doing, she asked Shi Er to take them with her. Unexpectedly, Shi Xiaosan turned out to be a naughty child, and her mischievous temper really made her unhappy.

The eldest son of the second Shi family had his face lowered. Although he didn't show anything, Su Ruojin could feel that the child had a gloomy air, like a troubled teenager hiding behind the wall to peek, which made her feel frightened.

The most normal one is probably the second eldest son of Shi Er's family. He doesn't bow his head, nor is he unruly and darting like Shi Xiaosan. Occasionally, when he meets Su Ruojin's gaze, he smiles slightly and is very calm, okay.

 Originally, she wanted to chat with the three children of the Shi family, but they did not feel as comfortable as Shi Er. She suddenly lost interest in dealing with them.

More than an hour later, we finally arrived at Dongshan Wenshan Street. March was still a few days away. At noon, the sun was shining brightly, warm and fuzzy, and a group of people walked on the narrow street.

People were coming and going, bustling with people carrying burdens, baskets...all kinds of vendors were hawking among the crowd, making it very lively.

The shops on both sides are of different heights. Except for a two-story restaurant, which is decent, the other shops are not big in appearance and are clean. Probably because they are in business for college students.

It took more than a quarter of an hour to reach the end of the street and saw the small courtyard rented by Shi Er. It had three rooms. If it hadn't been for a dilapidated wall, it wouldn't be called a small courtyard at all.

At this moment, Su Ruojin understood that Shi Er was not asking her for advice, but for money. It would really cost several taels of silver to repair the three broken rooms. This was still the most basic repair.

Historians, except for Shi Er who was fairly well-dressed, both Shi Er's wife and his three sons were malnourished and dejected. They were struggling in poverty at first glance. How could they have the money to do this.

Su Ruojin asked: "How much is the rent for the small courtyard?"

 “Three hundred articles.”

The price is not bad, but... Su Ruojin frowned. She didn't want to rent, she wanted to buy.

 “Have you met the landlord?”

Shi Er nodded, "I've seen it before. He's from the village below. I heard that this courtyard belonged to his grandfather. Later, when the family's financial situation declined, they moved to the countryside and rented out this small courtyard. They lived off the rent for a year."

Su Ruojin wanted to meet someone, "Go find the dentist and bring the landlord over. I want to meet him and talk to him about repairing the house." She actually wanted to buy it, but she kept it secret.

 “Hey, good!” The little boss took action, so Shi Er didn’t have to worry about it. He was very happy and ran to find the tooth man.

Shi Baoxiang has never seen me with such a smiling face and a friendly attitude at first glance. He has never been out with me, and he has never known that he has two faces.

He lowered his head and sneered, "What's the use of a girl like a fairy? She's just being tricked by his father."

Shi Guogui pursed his lips slightly. Ever since he left the house and followed his father all the way, he found that his father looked like a different person. He was not at all the man who spoke harshly to them at home.

Only Shi Baoxiang didn't seem to notice anything. He was happily following Su Ruojin with a smile all the way. If Mao Ya hadn't stopped him, he would have been able to get close to the little lady. She smells so good!

Shutong endured the three children of the second Shi family all the way, and kept complaining in his heart about why the young lady brought the three of them out, like three flies, which was disgusting.

The three boys from the Shi's family are really uncomfortable, and Su Ruojin also regrets it. He really has no hope for the Shi's franchise store, but since he agreed, he should try his best first!

It was a bumpy journey and I was already hungry.

Su Ruojin asked Uncle Shutong to find a place to eat. Shutong walked around and looked around. After all, it was located near the academy. The shops on this street were quite clean, so he found a medium-sized restaurant and was about to go in.

Shuangrui appeared out of nowhere like a magic trick, "Little lady—" He bowed his hands in a very polite manner.

Su Ruojin’s stern face suddenly opened up, and she asked with a smile, “Shuangbo, why are you here?”

The young master found traces of the Liaoxia people and came here to inquire about the situation. Huaping was also there, but at this time, he had quietly escaped.

He pointed to the two-story restaurant across the street, "The weather is nice today. My young master came to visit a friend and was having dinner upstairs. He saw the second lady and asked you to come over and eat together."

Su Ruojin wanted to refuse, but when she thought of eating with the three boys from the Shi family, she felt a little uncomfortable. It wasn't that she disliked the poor or anything, it was just that these three boys gave her a bad feeling and she didn't want to eat with them. .

So he went with the flow, nodded in agreement, and asked Shutong to take the three boys to eat in the restaurant, "Choose something good."

Shu Tong nodded, "I know it in my heart."

Shuangrui smiled at Shutong and took Su Ruojin away.

Shi Xiaosan wanted to follow him, but the guard behind Shuangrui stopped him with his sword and glared at him, making him take a few steps back in fright.

I don’t know where the two guards appeared from. Shi Xiaosan was so frightened that his face suddenly turned white.

 The older two were also frightened and ran towards the wall.

Shu Tong remained calm on his face and secretly sneered. He felt sympathy for Shi Er in vain and reluctantly took the three of them to a restaurant to eat.

 On the second floor, Su Ruojin sat opposite the little prince.

It is true that there is no harm without comparison. Su Ruojin never thought that one day, when she saw Zhao Lan, she would feel friendly, "What a coincidence, little prince!"

What a coincidence.

Zhao Lan still looked like a second-generation ancestor, "What are you doing here?" If you weren't staying in the boudoir, why did you run out?

Su Ruojin: ...Little Prince, you really deserve a beating.

She ignored the second generation ancestor's tone and said with a smile, "I want to buy a shop to sell breakfast, so I can take care of my elder brother here."

 “Who is your eldest brother?”

Suddenly someone spoke. Su Ruojin was startled and turned to look at the door. A young man came in flicking the moisture from his hands.

 Probably went to change clothes.

Su Ruojin looked at Zhao Lan.

“The youngest master of Dongshan Academy is also named Su, Su Xiangheng.”

 Oh, Shuangrui just said that the little prince is here to meet friends.

"Hello, Mr. Su." Su Ruojin stood up, turned around and bowed: "My eldest brother's name is Su Anzhi."

Su Xiangheng’s inquiring eyes suddenly understood: “So you are the daughter of Dr. Su from the Imperial College.”

 “It’s my father.”

Turns out she is Zijin’s younger junior sister.
