Tuantuan saw Su Yan shouting and hugging her. Su Yan's clothes had gold threads and she was afraid of making him uncomfortable. "Wait a minute, mom, go change clothes."
As soon as he entered the house, Qin An came in and closed the door without saying a word.
The wardrobe opened and Su Yan took out her clothes. She turned around and saw that the man was motionless. Normally, she would have come up to talk to him at this time.
She explained: "I and Dongzi went to Fucheng today and couldn't find you. I couldn't get in, so I asked the Ning family for help."
Qin An was not afraid that she would leave with Ning Yi, as her wife would not.
His eyes fell on her dignified and beautiful face. It was the first time he saw her like this. Her daughter-in-law could live a good life, but she kept working hard because of him.
How long are we going to make her suffer? If it's her whole life...
"Daughter-in-law, I won't go to Fucheng to study."
Studying is difficult, but at least he can support her at home. At least when his wife comes home after a tiring day, he can help her hold her waist.
Su Yan looked up at him and said with a serious expression: "It's only been a few months. No matter how difficult it is, it will be over. You don't need to worry about the family."
"I just don't worry about you being away. I don't worry about anything else. I don't worry about you marrying someone else's girl, and don't worry about me leaving with someone else."
She paused and then said, "I will die at home." She looked serious as she spoke.
"Nonsense." Qin An pouted at the ground, his expression extremely serious.
Su Yan changed her clothes, lowered her head to fiddle with her belt, and said softly: "Don't even think about leaving me, I will blame you."
Although the two of them have not had a good talk recently, they both know in their hearts that the current situation is very difficult. It is impossible to retreat and it is also difficult to advance.
It would be better for the two of them to be separated, but she was not willing to compromise, nor could she bear to separate.
It's not easy to live like this...
A big hand stretched out to hold her in his arms, and the man said in a deep voice: "No, I only have you and the child."
"What to eat? I'll do it."
"Go back to Fucheng." Su Yan gently squeezed his calloused hand and quickly looked down. She didn't have so many calluses when doing rough work every day, and she didn't know how many words she wrote.
A trace of distress flashed in her eyes.
Qin An pursed his lips, bent slightly to look at her, and said in consultation: "Daughter-in-law, I study as well as at home, and I will pass the exam."
"You can't gain knowledge by guarding this courtyard at home."
Su Yan turned around, opened the drawer, took out the ointment inside, sat down at the table, and said, "Come here."
When he came over, she took the ointment and applied it on his cocoon, "How long has it been since you slept through the night?"
"Don't worry about me. Unless you tell me yourself, I won't believe anything else."
Looking at his wife's drooping eyebrows, Qin An's nose was sore and her throat was a little sore. Su Yan raised her head and met her, her eyebrows arched, "I'll make some spicy food and you can take it to Fucheng."
"Okay." Qin An nodded.
…
County gate
Su Yan happily took the ball from Qin An's arms and said, "Kiss daddy."
Tuantuan rushed over and kissed his father's little beard. He covered his mouth and said: "Dad, prick..."
Qin An and Su Yan laughed at the same time. Qin An lowered his head and blew him, "Next time dad comes back, shave it clean and listen to mom at home."
"Okay, daddy, hug me," she said with a milky voice.
"Daddy's hand hurts. Mom hugs me."
Su Yan looked at Qin An and said: "You should be willing to spend your money where you should. Go to Fucheng to buy a wife and cook at home."
"good."
Qin An glanced at her, turned around and got on the carriage, quickly opened the carriage curtain, and said: "Daughter-in-law, next time I will bring horseshoe cakes back."
"Okay." Su Yan waved to him with her round hands.
When the coachman saw that everyone was gathered, he drove off in the carriage. He couldn't see his father, so he opened his mouth and cried, "Dad..."
Before he could cry out, Su Yan reached out to cover his mouth, turned around and left.
After a while, she let go and met the wet eyes. She felt uncomfortable in her heart and coaxed softly: "Daddy goes out to support us. When daddy comes back, I will bring you a candy man, okay?"
Tuantuan felt aggrieved and well-behaved: "Okay."
Su Yan kissed him and said, "Don't cry in front of daddy anymore, daddy will cry."
Tuantuan nodded in understanding, "Okay~"
Su Yan's well-behaved appearance made Su Yan feel even more distressed. This child has followed them everywhere since he was born, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future.
But she will do her best to let him grow up well.
…
Ning Yi said that about the Lin family, she thought about it for a few days, and she had to take some precautions.
But it is difficult to establish a relationship with the queen.
Unless she opens a perfume shop with many people.
If the Lin family wanted it, she would give it to them, but the Lin family didn't want to be in charge alone.
Thinking of this matter, she went to find several members of the Ren family.
After hearing her words, Mr. Liang was the first to speak up, "Why did you give us the business?"
"I can't bear it." Although Su Yan didn't say it directly, she was honest.
When she said this, several families understood that the perfume shop was doing so well that it had made people in the county jealous.
However, Su Yan had connections in the county, so most people would not dare to cause trouble.
But there is no guarantee that someone in Fucheng will be watching in the future, and the Qin family will have no way to keep this business.
Now it is better to separate it and let several families carry it together than one family.
This woman is really smart.
The Ren family is a grasshopper on the same rope as the Qin family. Master Ren nodded and said, "My family agrees."
Su Yan waited for the others to speak and did not rush them. After all, this matter was still a bit dangerous.
But doing business won’t always be smooth.
After all, the other families still envy the Ren family. They were not as good as them before, but now their family is the largest among them.
In the end everyone agreed.
Su Yan told them in detail: "I will teach each of you how to make perfume. As for where you open it, you can discuss it privately."
"I'll still give you 20% a month. You can sell the perfume to others, but I'll take 10%, and you can make the rest yourself."
She didn't make much money from them, otherwise she would have received a few percent more.
The families were all fine people, so they didn't say anything. After all, they were already doing well.
They won't lose.
Next, Su Yan was busy going to various houses to do this. She didn't see her parents for several days, and her eyes were always red from crying every time she went back.
Su Yan had no choice but to go with him on her back. Fortunately, he was obedient and would not cry.
But this made her much more tired.
She didn't feel tired, it was Cuilan and Zhang Xiu who noticed that she was tired.
After finally finishing the work, I rushed home before dark. Cuilan was sorting bean sprouts. When she saw them coming back, she got up and picked up the bean sprouts.
Tuantuan, who is almost two years old, is very heavy and his hands get sore after being held for a while.
Su Yan shook her hand and said with a smile: "The bean sprouts are still fresh today. Where did you buy them? I will buy some tomorrow and have them delivered to Fucheng."
"Okay, ma'am, I sent a package back, and I put it in the room." Cuilan thought of something and said.
After hearing this, Su Yan went into the house. There was a big bundle on the table, and she didn't know how much she bought.
She opened it and saw two sets of thick coats and a bag of pastries.
After rummaging around for a while, she didn't see the letter. She muttered in a low voice, "I didn't give you a letter when I sent you something."
