Chapter 164 Get a message to go to Decheng
Chapter 164 Got the message, go to Decheng
Su Shuanzi wrapped the food and handed it to the boy.
The boy took the things, bowed to Su Jinxiu to thank him, and then ran away.
Su Jinxiu didn't pay much attention to this little episode.
After finishing my work in the evening, I was settling accounts.
Then I saw the boy from the daytime standing at the door supporting an old beggar woman.
In his hand, he also carried the food he had taken away during the day.
"Grandma, I really didn't steal it. This kind shopkeeper gave it to me."
The old beggar woman was thin and her hair was mostly white.
If it weren't for the boy's support, I might not even be able to stand.
She naturally didn't believe what the boy said and started coughing.
"Ahem, grandma, ahem, said it.
No matter how poor you are, you can't do, ahem, immoral things."
The boy knew that the explanation was unclear, so he could only look at Su Jinxiu pleadingly.
Su Jinxiu poured a glass of water and stepped forward.
"This mother-in-law, your grandson is a filial man.
It’s true that he bought the food for you, so feel free to eat it!”
The old woman seemed a little afraid of others approaching, so she pulled the boy back two steps.
"No, cough, thank you, shopkeeper.
Xiaoqi, thank you."
The boy lowered his head and thanked Su Jinxiu. Seeing that his grandmother was coughing so badly, he quickly helped her away.
Su Jinxiu shook her head helplessly and returned to the restaurant with tea.
It was getting late, so she closed the door of the restaurant.
She went to the backyard to boil oil to make facial fat. She lit a fire while Li Qiang squeezed flower juice beside it.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a black stone in the corner of the yard.
"Hey, shopkeeper, what is this?"
I tried moving it and found it was quite heavy.
"It seems, it's not a stone."
Su Jinxiu finished her work and stepped forward to take a look.
Immediately, he frowned.
"This is not a stone..."
More like, some kind of iron?
Thinking of what the old prince said today, her expression suddenly changed.
Pick up the piece of iron and hide it in the room.
"Qiangzi, you watch the ignition, I'll go out for a while."
She went out and ran in the direction where her two grandparents had left.
The thing was thrown there by Xiaoqi earlier. Does he know the whereabouts of Jingtie?
It was dark all around and everyone in the city had gone to bed.
After searching all the way, I couldn't see the two ancestors and grandsons.
Finally, it was almost dawn, so I had to go back.
When she returned to the room and looked at the fine iron, she felt troubled.
Wait for the old prince to come tomorrow and leave it to the old prince!
Afraid of being discovered, she wrapped the things and threw them into the box.
——————————
It was daylight, so she didn't want to take a break and stayed busy in Ruyi Restaurant.
In order to wait for the old prince, I didn't even go to Yue Ji's side.
But at the end of the day, the old prince was not there.
It was just getting dark, so she wanted to go find out more about the situation.
But a coachman came to the door.
"Excuse me, who is Shopkeeper Su?"
Su Jinxiu stepped forward and nodded.
"I am."
The coachman paused and gave me a message.
"Mrs. Decheng Yang asked me to bring you a message, saying that she is too heavy now.
I can't bear it, so I would like to ask you to help me ask a doctor to take a look."
After hearing this, Su Jinxiu frowned.
I asked a few more questions, but the coachman didn't understand.
He took the silver reward she gave him and turned around and left.
Su Jinxiu remembered that it had been more than three months since she left Decheng.
Calculating the time, Sister Jiaojiao should be giving birth soon.
If it weren't for something else, he wouldn't have gone to such trouble to send someone to bring her a message.
She had no choice but to go to Decheng first.
Guessing that the shops in Decheng were almost tidied up, Su Jinxiu packed them up overnight and saluted.
I told Li Zhaodi a few words and waited until dawn.
Deng Damu and the others came over and gave them another warning.
Brother Shuan can now take charge alone, and Uncle Donkey can also help.
I guess it's not a big problem.
Su Jinxiu hired a carriage and loaded everything into it.
Immediately, he left Wucheng.
The road was bumpy for several days, and when we arrived at Decheng, it was completely dark.
Su Jinxiu asked the coachman to help put the salute at the inn, and without even taking a breath, she went straight to Ning Mansion.
When you arrive at the door of the house, explain your purpose of visit to the concierge.
The concierge went to inform Su Jinxiu first, and waited for almost half an hour before inviting Su Jinxiu in.
Su Jinxiu followed the concierge to the lobby and saw Yang Jiaojiao sitting there holding her belly.
Unexpectedly, Ning Wuyi and her mother-in-law were also there.
"Sister Jinxiu is here? She just arrived in Decheng?"
When Yang Jiaojiao saw Su Jinxiu, she stood up happily and wanted to walk towards Su Jinxiu.
However, Ning Wuyi supported her body and gently asked her to sit down.
"You are heavy now, don't move around."
Finally, he looked at Su Jinxiu again, with a very gentle expression.
"Miss Su, please forgive me, my wife can't bear it now.
Just sit down and say a few words to her.
It's getting late, so she has to go back and rest."
Ning Kang frowned in displeasure and said something serious.
"All the friends Jiaojiao knows are like her, and they don't take etiquette seriously.
What kind of girl would go to someone else’s house in the middle of the night?”
Yang Jiaojiao has been taught many lessons in the past and is used to it.
But he couldn't hear her talking about Su Jinxiu like this.
"mother……"
Su Jinxiu didn't care about this, she only cared about Yang Jiaojiao's situation.
There were no candles in the lobby, the light was unclear, and she was so far away.
But still, Yang Jiaojiao looked bad.
My body is also much swollen than last time.
Although she is about to give birth, she is growing too fast.
"Sister Jiaojiao, I just arrived in Decheng today.
I haven't seen you for a long time, and I am worried about you, so I came to see you first.
You, too, didn't even send me a message."
Yang Jiaojiao touched her tall belly and smiled sheepishly.
“I really couldn’t care less, so I ate and slept all day long.
I thought I would send you a letter after I gave birth..."
Ning Wuyi didn't want Yang Jiaojiao to say more and helped her get up.
"Miss Su, I'm sorry.
It's late, my wife needs to rest.
You guys, meet again another day."
Ning Kang also stood up and stepped forward.
"Miss Su, I will take you out."
Walking out of the gate of Ning Mansion, Su Jinxiu frowned.
I heard Sister Jiaojiao say that she didn’t send the letter?
But it is true that she is in a bad condition.
If she didn't send the letter, who did?
It was already midnight, and she couldn't stand at the door of someone's house.
Su Jinxiu went back to the inn first and slept soundly.
Early the next morning, I went to the shop to take a look.
The store has been decorated according to her requirements, and we are just waiting to find a suitable day to open it.
She sent someone to deliver a letter to Li Qiang, allowing him to bring his things with Aunt Shuangxi.
It's still cold today in Wucheng, which is not suitable for Aunt Shuangxi's body.
Spring has begun to bloom in Decheng, and the climate is very pleasant.
Seeing the sun rising in the sky, she bought some snacks and went to Ning Mansion.
Just as the concierge was about to make the announcement, he was stopped by Ning Kang who was about to go out.
"I said, Miss Su, my delicate body is heavy and needs rest.
Don't just run to our house and delay her rest.
If something happens to her while giving birth, can you bear the responsibility?"
Su Jinxiu smiled and handed Ning Kang a snack.
"Old madam, don't be surprised, Sister Jiaojiao and I hit it off right away.
When I first came to Decheng, I didn't have anywhere to go, so I rented Sister Jiaojiao's shop to open a noodle shop.
I want to talk to her about some shop matters.
Just a few words and then leave."
