Mrs. Su said: "That is, if I don't love my own daughter-in-law, who will?"
When I said this, I suddenly thought of Zhao Ling'er, and immediately lowered my face and said, "But some people refuse to accept my kindness! If I ask her to go east, she will go west, and she will fight against me every day!"
Mu Yunqing smiled and said: "Mom, we don't feel sorry for Zhao Ling'er, she is just an outsider. We feel sorry for Yi Ning. I have watched Yi Ning grow up. He has been filial and respectful to you since he was a child. What's the matter?
The first thing that tastes good is you. When I encounter something interesting when I go out for fun, I will be the first to show it to you when I buy it. Over the years, he has been praised a lot."
Mrs. Su also smiled and sighed: "Yining is such a good boy. He has been smart and sensible since he was a child. What a pity, why did he choose such a disobedient wild girl!"
After saying that, his brows furrowed again.
Mu Yunqing continued: "Mother, I have absolutely no objection to you keeping Zhao Ling'er in check. She doesn't listen to discipline, so it's right for mother to take care of her. But..."
Mu Yunqing paused and said cautiously: "For the sake of Yi Ning, mother, you should also protect Zhao Ling'er's body. She is growing up now. If she is frozen or hungry, she will not be able to conceive in the future.
My child, Yi Ning, can’t I bear to hate you for the rest of my life?”
After hearing this, Mrs. Su was shocked. Yes, why didn't she think of this?
She can take care of other things, but this matter is really hard for her to take care of.
She doesn't care whether Zhao Ling'er lives or dies, but if Su Yining doesn't have children in the future, then she will become a sinner of the Su family!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Su said to her servant: "Go and get Zhao Ling'er over here!"
After a while, Zhao Linger was helped into the hall by several maids.
When Mu Yunqing saw Zhao Ling'er's body limp and without any energy, she couldn't help but stood up in distress and walked over to help her.
Mrs. Su was angry and hateful when she saw her like this, and asked with a straight face: "Zhao Ling'er, do you know you were wrong?"
Zhao Ling'er raised her head, looked at Mrs. Su feebly, and whispered: "Ling'er knows that she was wrong."
After hearing these words, Mrs. Su felt a lot better, her expression softened, and she ordered her servants: "Take her back to the room, feed her some porridge, and get her two quilts."
Then he said: "Zhao Ling'er, don't think that I forgive you by letting you out. You are not allowed to go anywhere in the room for these two days. You should reflect on it! If you sneak out like this in the future, I won't let you go so easily.
you!"
Su Yining heard that Ling'er had been released and hurried over.
Seeing Zhao Ling'er's weak look, Su Yi Ning rushed over, picked up Ling'er and quickly returned to the room.
He put Ling'er gently on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and quickly asked his servants to bring in bowls of hot tea, and asked them to make porridge quickly.
Zhao Linger finally took a sip of hot water.
She hadn't drank a sip of water since noon yesterday, and had been shut up all night after running all the way. Now she could finally have a good sleep.
After drinking a few sips of hot water, Zhao Ling'er fell asleep.
Seeing that she was asleep, Su Yi Ning couldn't bear to wake her up. She only ordered A Zhen and the others to heat the porridge and feed Linger to her whenever she woke up.
After this incident, Zhao Ling'er finally learned Mrs. Su's methods.
She didn't dare to go out easily.
She originally wanted to call the chef and teach him how to stir-fry the bottom of the pot at home, but she was afraid that the smell would be too strong and someone would report it to Mrs. Su.
Forget it, she had no choice but to hand over the recipe for the pot base to Shopkeeper Wang when he came, and drew him a schematic diagram of the Yuanyang Pot, asking him to ask the craftsmen to customize a batch of Yuanyang Pot.
She doesn't know what's going on in the store now, but every time she sees the account books brought by shopkeeper Wang, she knows that the store is doing well.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
The eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month is Master Su’s birthday.
Mrs. Su started making arrangements to celebrate Master Su's birthday a week in advance.
Although Master Su is only a minor official, not even an official, all major and minor matters in Yunzhou have to pass through his hands. Over the years, he has also been the governor's right-hand man, helping him make decisions in everything. So Yunzhou
Famous people in the city would give gifts to Master Su every time at this time, and Master Su would also prepare several banquets at home to entertain guests on his birthday.
"Master, look at the list. Let's invite the chef from Fengqing Road to cook at home for this birthday. I heard they have a lot of new dishes. Take a look and see if there is anything you like." Mrs. Su took it.
He looked at the menu and handed it to Master Su with a pleasant look.
Master Su waved his hand with a smile and said: "Don't look anymore, I have already booked ten tables at Bahai Hotpot Restaurant. In the past few days, you will send someone to send them invitations and ask them to go directly to Bahai Hotpot Restaurant.
Just eat hot pot.”
"Eating hot pot?" Mrs. Su asked in surprise: "What's so delicious about hot pot? Isn't it just a home-cooked dish?"
Master Su smiled, stroking his beard and said: "You don't understand this. Bahai Hotpot Restaurant is the largest hotpot restaurant in Yunzhou. Although it opened not long ago, the governor and others have eaten there and said that the taste is extraordinary and special.
It's their spicy hot pot, oh," Master Su swallowed his saliva and said, "I won't tell you anymore, you will know when you try it."
When Shopkeeper Wang came to report, he reported to Zhao Ling'er the news about Master Su's reservation.
Zhao Ling'er was very happy after hearing this and said: "Please order people to prepare some offal such as beef tripe, pig brains, duck intestines, clean them, and keep them on ice. Master, I think they haven't eaten these offal for many years, but they can't eat them."
If you blanch it in a hot pot, it's much more flavorful than chicken or duck."
Shopkeeper Wang nodded, and suddenly thought of something again, and said: "By the way, Miss Ling'er, we are almost running out of chili peppers. Plus the ten tables ordered by Master, I'm afraid we will only have enough for three days."
Zhao Ling'er took a breath, thinking of chili peppers gave her a headache.
"You go back first, I'll get the peppers."
After shopkeeper Wang returned, Zhao Linger told Su Yining about the incident.
Su Yi Ning said happily: "Great, now our whole family knows that you open the Bahai Hot Pot Restaurant! Maybe my mother will be very happy after hearing this, and will allow you to come and go freely in the future!"
Zhao Ling'er was also very happy, and then told Su Yining about the chili peppers.
Su Yi Ning thought for a while and said, "You don't want to go this time. I'll go by myself overnight. I should be fine when I come back the next afternoon."
Zhao Ling'er shook her head and said: "You don't understand English, so I'd better go. I just want to talk to him about the supply of goods. Chili is an important raw material for hot pot restaurants, and the supply must be stable. I'll go and get it this time.
Ask them what happened to them last time and where to find them in the future."
"But you, how are you going to explain it to my mother?"
Zhao Ling'er said: "I can't take care of that much anymore. The worst I can do is close the woodshed when I come back! It's okay. This time you go get a key to the backyard in advance. I'll put a flint in my pocket. Even if I'm locked up, I can still do it."
Make a fire to keep warm."
Zhao Ling'er smiled and said: "Don't worry, it'll be okay. I've been alone in the wind and rain since I was a child. These are small things. You can just wait for me at home."
Su Yi Ning had no other choice but to help her carry quilts, hand stoves and other warm items into the carriage, and told A Xin to drive well and pay attention to safety on the road.
Zhao Ling'er's trip went very smoothly this time. With the experience from the last time, she found Qingchen Temple with ease this time. Not far from the corner of the last transaction, she saw the man who sold her chili peppers last time.
.
"What happened to you last time? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Zhao Ling'er asked in less than proficient English.
"Our goods and money have been robbed by robbers. I have to send them money quickly."
"Yeah." Zhao Ling'er nodded: "Did the goods get back later?"
