Tuantuan had woken up by now, and Cuilan was holding him and putting on his coat. When she heard footsteps, she turned and looked over, "Master."
Qin An nodded and took the child from her hand, "My wife has been busy all day today?"
"I haven't had a rest since dinner in the afternoon."
Cuilan thought about something, hesitated slightly, and quickly said: "My wife is a little dizzy today. It took her a while to recover. I asked her to see the doctor but she didn't go."
Upon hearing this, Qin An handed her the child again and strode to the kitchen.
The spatula in her hand was taken away, and Su Yan turned to look at the man, "Mr. sir, what's wrong?"
Qin An feels distressed and angry now. He feels distressed that she is tired and angry that she doesn't care about her body. Normally, she would be worried if he coughs a little bit.
"Daughter-in-law, go see the doctor."
As soon as Su Yan heard this, she knew that Sister Cui had told him about her dizziness, "It's okay. I just got dizzy when I was in a hurry. It's nothing."
Seeing that he was standing still, she immediately compromised and said in a soft voice: "I'll go, change my clothes and go, and you can take out the firewood."
The man's face became much softer and he said, "Okay."
After she changed her clothes and the couple left for a long trip, the doctor took her pulse and said, "No problem, I'm just a little tired. Just make sure to rest."
Qin An felt relieved, paid the money for the consultation, and took Su Yan out. The two of them hadn't gone to the market together for a while.
Thinking of this, he said: "Daughter-in-law, whatever you want to eat, I will buy it for you."
"I have it at home. I made a lot of dishes today." Su Yan thought that the child was at home, so she hurried home to watch.
I knew clearly that there was someone at home, but I felt relieved when I looked at my child.
"Would you like chestnut cake?" Qin An put his arm around her shoulders.
Su Yan turned her head and glanced at him, naturally knowing what he was thinking, and smiled, "Eat, buy some melon seeds, and pass the time when you have nothing to do."
"Okay." Qin An responded.
The two of them didn't waste much time and went home after shopping. The food on the table was still warm, so Su Yan invited Sister Cui and the others to eat.
"Try it and see if you get tired of it. The taste in this capital is sweet."
Cuilan picked up a piece of braised pork and said, "I'm not tired of eating it. Madam, your cooking is really good. Did you learn it somewhere?"
"I'm just guessing." Su Yan gave Qin An a few pieces and said, "Take a look at the taste of the left side and the right side. How much is the difference?"
Qin An was accustomed to eating the food cooked by his wife, and said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, you ask them."
"I like everything you do."
When Su Yan heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry. Then she looked up at Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu took a few bites and said, "This one in Jingcheng will be a bit greasy if you eat a few more pieces. The one made by Madam is slightly sweeter, but not greasy."
Su Yan just thought that most of the people in the county were locals and might not be used to too much sweetness, so she added a little less.
"If you like it, eat more of it, otherwise it won't taste good if you leave it to heat up."
Zhang Xiu's cheeks are still a little swollen now, but they are much better now than before. At least the hosts, Su Yan and Qin An, are very kind to them.
"Thank you ma'am."
"Please don't call me madam and go out, otherwise others will think how rich I am."
Su Yan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Just follow the outsiders and shout."
Sun Erdan said obediently: "Auntie."
Suddenly all the adults at the table laughed, and Su Yan picked up some food for him, "You are the best, eat more, and write big words with Uncle Qin after you finish."
…
For several days, Su Yan ran to Wu's shop. Ren Li was worried for two or three days at first, but before anyone from the Yamen came up, she decided that Su Yan didn't have the courage.
On this day, when Su Yan was delivering food to Qin An at noon, she happened to meet Mrs. Ren Li. She liked to quarrel, so she was ready to leave with a basket.
Ren Li stopped in front of her, "Didn't you say you were going to the Yamen to file a complaint? Why didn't you go?"
Su Yan paused and said with some annoyance: "Making trouble at the entrance of the academy, does your husband-in-law gain dignity by studying? Others will only say behind his back that there is a shrew in his family."
Then he added: "If you want to make trouble, use your skills to make trouble."
"I'm afraid Manxiangji has had fewer customers these days. If we wait another half month, there will be even fewer customers."
The business at home has indeed been slow these days. It is said that Wu Ji's shop has new dishes, which are half price these days, and many people are going to eat them.
Their family was just waiting to see the Wu family's loss-making business, and they didn't take it seriously. When Su Yan said this, Ren Li didn't take it seriously, "My Manxiangji has been open in the county for more than ten years.
Wu Ji’s shop? Just wait and see, if you can afford it, keep offering half price."
Su Yan didn't say anything more and walked sideways past her.
Mrs. Ren Li couldn't see that she was obviously not from the county, but she behaved better than her from a wealthy family.
Thinking of Ren Hui's reluctance to touch her yesterday, she felt even more upset, "Go and find out where she is from. I want to see where she comes from. She looks just like the vile monster in the flower house.
"
Here, Su Yan went to Wu Ji's shop with a food box. Business was very good at the moment. People queued outside and the cook was obviously too busy.
As soon as the shopkeeper saw her, he greeted her politely, "Ms. Qin."
"Is the business good today?" Su Yan asked.
It's not half price today. If business is still good, then there won't be any problem.
"Very good. This is the second round. The boss is busy going out to buy vegetables and spices."
The shopkeeper motioned for her to sit on a stool, and Su Yan waved her hand, "I'm just going to take a look. As long as the business is good, you can go and do your work. I'll go home and take care of the kids."
"Ms. Qin, wait a minute. My boss asked me to give you this basket of fruits. I bought them from the capital." The shopkeeper handed her a basket of grapes.
Su Yan was not polite, took it and accepted it, "Thank you boss for me."
The entrance of Qin's courtyard
Zhang Xiu was making fish cakes for the guests. Seeing that she was too busy, Su Yan walked over and said to the guests behind her: "Give me the money."
She counted the coins and Zhang Xiu made the pancakes. They were busy for about a quarter of an hour, and no one could take a break.
Zhang Xiu said happily: "Madam, business is very good today. The second pot I baked was sold out."
"We'll close the stall after this is sold. Come to the shop with me later, and I'll ask a few workers to fix the stove." Su Yan folded a small bunch of grapes for her, and then carried the basket into the yard.
Cuilan was feeding rice cereal to Tuan Tuan, dipped some of it with her chopsticks and gave him a taste, "Tuan Tuan, your mother is back."
Su Yan put down the basket and picked up the child from her hand. It was as heavy as dough. She joked: "From now on, you will have to let your father carry you and lift you up."
Speaking of Qin An, Cuilan suddenly thought of something. She turned around on her chair and took something and put it on the table, "Madam, this is the hairpin that the master bought for you. I just went to get it back."
Hearing this, Su Yan looked at the tassel hairpin on the table. Ren Li also had a similar style on her head, which was obviously not cheap.
"When did he buy it?"
"I don't know, the master just asked me to get it now." Cuilan shook her head.
After a while, Su Yan gave the child to Cuilan, took the hairpin to the house, and opened the money box at home. Not a penny was missing.
Qin An is studying in college these days, so naturally he has no wages, unless he takes some lucrative job without telling her.
