Qin An wiped her clean carefully, then used his fingers to play with the broken hair on her temples, "If it's hot, it won't come out. I can buy sugar when I come back. It's not far."
"Erdan said you bought me jelly cake, so I came out to see whose husband is as good as this." Su Yan reached out to hold his arm and said half-jokingly.
Qin An found that his wife was becoming more and more clinging to him, and he felt a little more happy. He just wanted his wife to cling to him so that he would not be abducted by others.
There are many men in the county and their family backgrounds are much better. As long as the wife is willing, she does not have to endure hardships with her.
Others say that his wife was a widow before, but in fact many men are very rare about their wives, otherwise the scholars in the academy would not come out to see her every time.
He said in a low voice: "You stand under the eaves, I will weigh some fruits and bring them back."
"Okay." Su Yan stood under the nearest eaves and watched him go shopping at the fruit shop diagonally opposite.
At this moment, a carriage stopped in front of her. She thought the person was about to get off, so she turned slightly sideways and took two steps back.
The next moment, the carriage curtain opened, revealing a man wearing crescent-colored gauze clothes, a white jade crown on his head, and a handsome face.
Ning Yi.
His eyes fell on the woman, "Ms. Qin."
Su Yan raised her head and glanced, her face suddenly softened slightly, and she said generously: "Mr. Ning, have you returned to the county today?"
"When I came back yesterday, I still had to deal with the floor at home."
Ning Yi paused for a moment and then said: "Do you want land for your family? It's in a small village outside the city. The carriage will arrive in a quarter of an hour or two."
Now that no one at home is growing vegetables, Su Yan doesn't want to buy land, otherwise she won't have enough time to spare, so she will definitely grow vegetables.
"If you don't want to buy it, we don't grow vegetables at home right now. You can take a look at the shop."
You can also make some money by buying in the shop. When the time comes, you can stop doing business yourself and just sell it to others.
Ning Yi came out of the carriage and stood next to her, "There are a few shops and the location is very good. You can check them out anytime in the next few days."
Su Yan raised her head and wiped her forehead, "I'll ask my husband-in-law later and I'll ask him to look at it with me."
Ning Yi nodded, "Let's have a meal together. I happen to have some business to discuss with you."
"There are still people in my family. How about this? If you don't mind, we can eat together at home." Su Yan asked.
Ning Yi naturally wouldn't mind. Just as he was about to say something, Qin An came over with a watermelon, which weighed seven or eight kilograms.
Su Yan smiled and said: "I bought such a big one, I can't finish it."
"It's cheap today."
Qin An looked at Ning Yi, his eyes were not repulsive, but he did not greet him either.
"Our house is just ahead. Look where the carriage is." Su Yan didn't tell Qin An about Ning Yi going to his house for dinner. It wouldn't be good for the couple to talk about it in front of outsiders.
Qin An didn't ask any questions. After entering the house, he washed the water melon and threw it into the well to soak. Then he changed his clothes and went to the kitchen to help cook.
Su Yan took out the bacon at home and cooked it. She cut the first piece and fed it to the man who was lighting the fire. "If this was in the village, I could use some wild onions. It would definitely be fragrant."
Qin An opened his mouth and ate it, "There's some in the mountains, I'll pick it up tomorrow."
“It’s not convenient to enter the mountains here.”
Su Yan got down to business and said: "Ning Yi has a shop and land to sell, and I just want to take a look at the shop. The shop is much better than keeping money in a bank."
"Can we go see it at noon tomorrow? I'll bake some pancakes and eat them while walking."
"I can go by myself, but I'm afraid you won't agree."
It wasn't that he wasn't worried about what she had with Ning Yi, but he was worried about her going out alone.
Qin An said "Hmm", took out the stove with the tongs, and said in a low voice: "There's no need to bake the pancakes, just buy some outside tomorrow."
"Okay." Su Yan nodded.
At this time, Zhang Xiu came in with an empty teapot to fill with hot water. Qin An was afraid that she would burn her daughter-in-law because of her incompetent hands and feet, so he stretched out his hand and said: "Give it to me."
Zhang Xiu handed it to him and said, "Excuse me, sir."
Su Yan glanced at her and said, "Xiao Xiu, please go out. I will ask you later."
Zhang Xiu nodded and turned around and went out. Su Yan looked at her teasing Erdan in the yard before looking back, and then looked at Qin An, "Ms. sir, don't help Xiaoxiu with work in the future."
"She's not married yet."
It's not that Zhang Xiu is restless. It's normal for a woman to have feelings. When the feeling comes, no one can stop it.
Zhang Xiu seemed to have some thoughts about Qin An, but he didn't have any evil intentions.
Just don't let her continue to misunderstand anything.
Hearing this, Qin An frowned slightly. He knew that his wife would not say this for no reason. She must have discovered something before she said it.
He immediately said: "I didn't say anything to her."
Su Yan naturally knew that he didn't say anything. They stayed together every day and he was in front of her and the child whenever he had time.
"I know, just avoid it if you can. Xiaoxiu is a very good girl."
"Okay." Qin An said in a low voice.
Probably because of her reminder, Qin An began to pay attention to his contact with Zhang Xiu. In the past, he would scoop out rice for everyone, but this time he only scooped out food for Su Yan and Ning Yi.
I didn’t scoop out the eggs because I was afraid it would be too obvious.
Su Yan noticed it, and felt a little want to laugh, but also felt a little warm. As long as she said this, he would take it to heart.
She looked at Sun Erdan: "Erdan, you can't eat too many melon seed cakes. You are growing teeth. Just eat one or two pieces and you will be fine. The others will be eaten tomorrow."
"Sister, Mr. Ning, please do as you please, you're welcome."
Ning Yi nodded, Goudanfu held his daughter and fed her food and said, "If I don't want to be polite to you, I won't come if you are polite."
"Sister, your craftsmanship is much better. I have never tasted these styles."
Su Yan studied the food at several restaurants, and naturally her skills improved a bit.
"It took me a little time to make melon seed cakes today, otherwise I could have made more."
After dinner, Su Yan took Ning Yi into the study room. Qin An was naturally there, but he did not participate. Instead, he sat at the desk and did his homework.
Ning Yi glanced at him, no wonder he looked a little more bookish than last time.
There is still a difference between studying and not studying. People who study have confidence in their actions and speeches.
"The business of the shop in the capital is very good. Four have been opened. My father also wants to open another food shop, taking advantage of the fact that the reputation is already established."
"Do you have any good ideas?"
"Yes, yes, but I don't know much about the habits of the capital. It may not be to my taste at that time. I will have to go to the capital when I have time."
Su Yan paused for a moment and then said: "But recently my husband-in-law is studying and the college exam is coming soon, so he can't spare time."
Firstly, there was no time, and secondly, she didn’t want to go to the capital.
Qin An's life experience is related to the capital. Xiao Lan has always said that it is very dangerous, so Qin An cannot be discovered by others.
She would rather make less money than take this risk.
Ning Yi had met a lot of people, and what she meant was obviously clear. She didn't say anything for a while, and after a while she said, "Come back after the hospital has tried it, and you can open it if you can."
"I really can't help you with this," Su Yan said politely.
Ning Yi frowned slightly, probably not expecting her to refuse. After thinking about it, he said: "It's best to ask a master for your husband's provincial exam. I know a master in the capital, and it's better to have him teach you than an academy."
Upon hearing this, Qin An, who had been silent all this time, said in a low voice: "Don't talk business with me."
If this was any other matter, Su Yan might have agreed, but the capital... she didn't want to get involved at all.
Now Xiao Lan only says that Qin An is their child, and nothing else is clear.
A mess.
It may be more complicated than you think.
"My family speaks straightforwardly, so don't take it to heart. I really don't have time for this matter. If you can send the food over, I can think about it then."
Su Yan also didn't want to lose the Ning family, at least she could help a little in the future.
Their attitude was resolute, but Ning Yi said nothing more, "I will go home and discuss this matter with my father."
"When are you going to check on the shop? I'll be leaving in a few days."
Su Yan replied: "We have agreed to go see you at noon tomorrow. My husband only has half an hour. Maybe I need to move faster then."
