It was winter in the capital in October, and the wind and snow poured in through the curtains of the carriage. Even though there was a charcoal basin in the carriage, it was still bone-chillingly cold.
"Master, we have entered the house."
The waiter's voice came. Su Yizhao opened the curtain and looked out. The door of Su Mansion was right in front of him.
The carriage turned into the corner gate on the west side and drove directly to the outer courtyard.
The porter quickly removed the threshold to allow the carriage to pass unimpeded. He stood aside with a bow, waiting for the carriage to enter the outer courtyard.
Su Bing was waiting in the outer courtyard at the moment. When he saw the carriage coming in, he immediately stepped forward.
"I have met the fifth young master and the seventh young master."
Su Yijue lifted the car curtain and was a little surprised when she saw the second manager waiting outside.
"It's been really hard for the two young masters to travel all the way. But I have something to discuss with the seventh young master, and I'm already waiting outside in the study."
Su Yizhao was speechless. She had just come back and the journey was dusty. She didn't even have time to wash up.
Su Yijue glanced at Su Yizhao and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
They came back together, but my grandfather only saw Su Yizhao, who was so impatient.
"The second manager asked me to go and wash up first. It would be a bit rude to meet you at this moment."
Su Yizhao was deeply impressed by this second manager. He still remembered that when he was brought into the Su Mansion by Uncle Zhong and the second manager, he had a cold face the whole time and never gave her a good look.
Even a manager looks down upon his master's identity. This is called short-sightedness.
Just today, Su Bing respectfully invited her to the study room, but where was the arrogance and arrogance from before?
Su Bing glanced at Su Yizhao who got out of the car and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Who would have thought that a concubine who lived in a common house would turn over?
Today's Fourth Fang is no longer the former Four Fang. Who in the house dares to treat him lightly? Isn't it because the young master of Fourth Fang is trying to live up to his reputation?
I couldn't help but sigh. There is a saying that it takes thirty years to the east of the river and thirty years to the west of the river.
It can be seen that you can’t underestimate anyone, things are changing!
Seeing Su Yizhao walking towards his yard, although Su Bing was unhappy, he had nothing to do.
Now the old man values Su Yizhao very much. Even if he goes to apply eye drops in front of the old man, the old man will not be dissatisfied.
After Su Yizhao finished speaking to Su Bing, he went straight to his yard.
She knew what the old man was going to ask her, but now she was covered in dust and felt really uncomfortable.
Su Yizhao's yard was busy early this morning, and the whole yard was filled with joy.
"Sister Yuerong, you don't know that I just went to the big kitchen to get food, and the big kitchen actually prepared dumplings stuffed with crab roe. Then Manager Li specially left a portion for us in the courtyard, saying it was for us
The young master likes to eat."
Yueqiu came in with a food box. It was getting late and it was already dinner time.
"I heard from the outer courtyard that the young master is about to arrive. Let's prepare the hot water quickly. As soon as the young master comes back, he must take a shower first."
Yueqiu started making noises as soon as she entered the courtyard. It's a great joy for the young master to return home today, aren't you happy?
Yuerong smiled and shook her head, "Aren't those people in the house just flattering the superiors and suppressing the inferiors? Our young master is now the official. If we are in high school next year, he will be the official. How dare they neglect us?"
"Isn't that right? Didn't you see how Li Da, the manager, served us the dishes in the courtyard and picked the best ones? How could we be treated like this in the past?"
At this moment, in the study room outside, the elder Su Wenchun picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. After hearing Su Bing's reply, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"This bastard from the fourth family is becoming more and more outrageous. Although he is somewhat capable, he is too proud of his favor, isn't he?"
The third master, Su Wenzhou, was also a little dissatisfied. How could Su Yizhao endure the elders like them waiting for a junior?
"He just came back. He has to give him time to wash up, right? It's very hard after traveling and traveling, so he should be considerate."
When the old man saw that several people looked worried, he gave some advice.
"Father! You have to talk to him carefully this time. He is too bold in his actions. He makes everything on his own, leaving us in the capital in a hurry and unprepared. It would be better if he causes trouble in Beiyuan Mansion, so let us
Wipe his butt."
Su Wenchun was so angry that he almost filed a lawsuit. He had been ostracized in the court some time ago. Was it because Su Yizhao offended the chief minister?
"This matter is not his fault. It is entirely because others are plotting against our family, so we can only passively fight back. How can we blame him?"
The old man was a little angry. He actually looked down upon the boss's temperament.
"Brother, that's what my father said. Can we just swallow our anger when someone plots against our family? He cooperated with us in Beiyuan Mansion and finally solved the matter without causing any trouble for the family."
The third master said something fair, how can you blame a child for this matter?
"But all these things happened because of him! Could it be that he is so high-profile? Otherwise, how could he confront Meng Lingxi and the chief minister?"
The elder is still very dissatisfied. This child keeps causing trouble for the family.
"Then according to what you say, our Su family shouldn't have talented people? People who are good are jealous of others. It is precisely because of his talent that he is jealous and people try every means to frame him."
The old man's face darkened. The boss's temper had become worse and worse in the past two years. He couldn't help but think of Su Yizhao's proposal, and his heart was filled with worry.
"What's more, those people are also because of the Su family behind him. Otherwise, why bother to deal with a child? You are not allowed to say this again in the future. He is a descendant of our Su family."
Su Wenchun wanted to refute, but the old man's face was already very dissatisfied and he did not dare to say any more.
"Master, the seventh young master is here!"
The old man immediately softened his expression and said, "Let him come in!"
Su Yizhao saluted immediately when she entered the study, but she was surprised that the eldest master and the others were also there.
"You have worked hard all the way. I am very relieved that I won Jieyuan in the provincial examination this time. We were not disappointed. Although the process was a bit tortuous, the ending is still good."
The old man looked at her with loving eyes and asked her to sit down and talk.
In a room full of elders, how could Su Yizhao dare to sit down? Especially Su Wenchun and the others did not look very happy.
"If the elders are here, why should the younger ones sit down?"
There are only a few seats in this study, is it possible for her to sit on an equal footing with her elders?
The old man's face suddenly became a little gentler. He likes children who understand etiquette and know how to advance and retreat.
"You handled the mineral deposit issue very well. Although we can no longer interfere with the Qu family, we can recommend them to the court. The Emperor Longyan was very pleased and gave me a reward."
Speaking of this, the old man was filled with joy.
Even if it is just a reward of gold, silver and jewels, it is a privilege. Who in the court would not envy it?
What's more, during the early court session, the emperor praised himself in front of all the civil and military officials, which made him look great.
In recent days, the emperor has become more and more satisfied with him. He will be called out from time to time during court meetings and asked about his political opinions. He feels very proud.
