However, Su Mu understood from the bottom of her heart that perhaps they were afraid of being implicated, so they could not ask for help unless absolutely necessary!
She frowned and shook her head gently, "No one can help us forever. We still have to rely on ourselves for everything."
Although Chen Liang didn't quite understand what she said, he still nodded.
When they returned home, it was already close to noon, and the house was basically tidied up. The old lady and Mr. Liu were sitting in the yard anxiously waiting for her to come back.
At the door, there was a large group of villagers watching the fun. There were mostly people with the Su surname in Sujiazhuang. Most of them were branches of the Su family, and there were also some unrelated people with different surnames. When the Su family was prosperous, they often contributed to the village.
This road was built by Su Funing at his own expense.
Everyone was naturally aware of the sudden decline of the Su family, so many people came to watch. Among them, some were watching, some were worried, and some felt sorry for the Su family.
"I heard that only some of the old, young, sick and disabled are left in the Su family. What can we do now?"
"Isn't that right! The old lady Su is old, and Mrs. Su is a soft persimmon. I heard that the third young lady of the Su family is as fat as a pig, and she has two young sons. Just wait! In a few days, the Su family will
I'm afraid it will fall apart."
"Hey! This man has been in Hedong for thirty years and Hexi for thirty years. Last year, when the Su family came back to worship their ancestors, they were still very prosperous. But now, they have become prisoners."
"..."
All these villagers' words fell into the ears of Su Mu, who had just returned.
She coughed lightly, handed the horse's reins to Chen Liang's hands, stood at the door of her house and looked at the villagers with her arms folded.
"We are very happy that everyone can come to see us. Our Su family is still the Su family. Although something happened to the men of the Su family, the women of the Su family are still here. Therefore, anyone who wants to visit us is welcome at any time. If you want to watch the fun,
Then leave immediately."
No one responded to Su Mu's words. No one in this village could see the third young lady of the Su family, because she had never been here during ancestor worship. Firstly, she disliked the dirty countryside, and secondly, she was
In her heart, ancestor worship has nothing to do with her.
So, everyone looked at her and started talking about her,
"This must be Su Sanya, look at her, she is as fat as a pig."
"Yes, she is really ugly, have you heard? She is also obsessed with His Majesty the Seventh Prince? She is really overestimating her abilities."
"Well, not only that, I heard that she is selfish and as narrow-minded as a needle!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Su Mu frowned when he heard this, and suddenly shouted coldly, "Chen Liang, release the dog. The dogs of the Su family know who is good and who is talking nonsense."
When everyone heard this, they shut their mouths because Chen Liang really took out two big yellow dogs from the yard, so everyone walked away one after another.
As soon as Su Mu entered the courtyard, the old lady greeted her.
"Sanya, is your grandfather in good spirits? How are your father and two brothers?"
"Fortunately, my grandfather told us not to miss them and to take care of ourselves."
Su Mu said it and helped the old lady sit in the yard. She picked up the cattail leaf fan on the table and shook it gently.
"Hey! How will the Su family live in the future? Otherwise, you go to your second grandfather and third grandfather and ask them to set aside a shop for us to run. Those shops were originally opened with the help of your father.
of."
Su Mu smiled and shook her head, "They are avoiding our family now, how can they help us? We should not go to them unless we have to. Don't worry, grandma, as long as there are people here, we will not starve to death."
There was a firmness in her eyes that came from nowhere, which surprised the old lady for a while.
She was really confused about Su Mu's changes.
"Sanya, what are your plans? There is no income in this family, otherwise we should dismiss all these servants?"
Su Mu naturally understood what the old lady was worried about, but how could she do it without a servant girl to take care of her?
She shook her head, "No, I will naturally come up with a perfect solution, so grandma doesn't have to worry."
After appeasing my grandmother for a while, it was getting a little late, and I had a pretty casual dinner. Everyone was tired today, so they went back to the room to rest early.
The night she spent at the Su family's old house was the first night she traveled here, so she couldn't sleep.
Right now, she has to think about how to support the Su family and how to defend her father's justice in the future, so this fat body will definitely not be able to survive.
She looked down at herself in disgust, why didn't God open his eyes? Why did he let her travel through time to such a dead body?
In the morning, she was the first to get up and started jogging in circles in the yard. She made up her mind to lose weight. As an educated woman in modern society, it was not difficult for her to maintain a good figure.
.
They had porridge and porridge for breakfast. Fourth sister Su Qing pursed her lips and complained in a low voice with dissatisfaction, "Our family used to have four dishes and one soup in the morning. Why do we only have porridge today? How can we eat this?"
However, the fifth brother Su Yuanmin was more sensible. He comforted her with a childish voice, "Fourth sister, our family is in trouble now. You should stop being picky about food and drink. When I grow up and can earn money, I will let you eat well every day."
Is that okay?”
Su Yuanmin's words gave Su Mu some comfort. She reached out and touched his head, "Min'er is so good. Come back, I'll find a husband for you. You must study hard and learn knowledge. My eldest brother and second brother asked you to pass the exam in the future.
What about fame?"
"Well, that's natural. The men of the Su family will not fail. I will work hard."
Min'er stared with her big innocent eyes, and her vows made Su Mu feel happy. It seemed that Su Qing, a stinky girl, had to change her temper. It was all her own fault for taking her to play with her before.
, led her astray.
"Grandma, I walked around here in the morning. Although the Su family's house is not big, there is a lot of land around it, and it is all idle. I measured it with my feet. It is about six or seven acres. I think
Okay, build a few houses on these open spaces to raise chickens, contract some wasteland, and plant some corn to feed the chickens..."
"Ah? Raising chickens? How dirty is that work?"
Azi, who was standing next to her, spoke first. She even covered her nose with her hands, as if she smelled chicken manure.
The other girls stood aside and grinned, fearing that they would be asked to feed the chickens.
Su Mu glanced at them and said, "Although the chicken is dirty, can you all eat the eggs? The chicken is also delicious. I will call everyone here later. Let me explain here first that if you want to keep it, you have to accept it.
My arrangement is that if you want to leave, I won’t lose your wages.”
