"Fresh and hot steamed buns are out of the oven! Come on, uncle, here are the three you asked for. Auntie, you have five today. Hey, little Douding, you can hold on to one of yours." Su Xiaojiang wrapped it up.
The buns were distributed one by one to the people in line, while taking the copper coins from their hands and stuffing them into the pockets of their aprons.
When Song Xiao came to Su Liu's stall, he saw such a busy scene.
Walking over and sitting down, Su Xiaoxiao saw it with her peripheral vision and shouted, "Who are the guests? Hey, it's you again!"
Su Liu looked over and was stunned. Then he wiped the powder on his hands, walked over and said, "Why are you here?"
"I've been to your house, but no one was there. I thought you were here to open a stall. I had nothing to do, so I came to take a look." Song Xiao took a pair of chopsticks, knocked on the table, and said, "I'm starving to death."
Come on, bring me something to eat."
Su Liu smiled: "Just wait."
"Here." After a while, Su Xiao brought up a basket of dumplings and three barbecued pork buns, and said, "You can help yourself, we are busy!"
Song Xiao had no intention of asking her to serve him, but after hearing her words, he still couldn't help but glare at her. Unfortunately, Su Xiao had no time to bother him and went on his own.
I thought that snacks like steamed buns were always mediocre, but after taking one bite, I couldn't stop eating. Soon, the dumplings and several steamed buns on the small table all bottomed out and they all fell into my stomach.
"Yeah." He burped, swept his stomach, and looked at the stall again. Now there were not as many people as there were before.
Putting a basket of newly kneaded buns on the steamer, Su Liu washed his hands again and walked over. Seeing him sitting on the chair without any image, sweeping his stomach, he couldn't help but smile: "You have carefully stored your food."
Then, he poured him a cup of tea and moved it over.
"Now I know why this little stall of yours is so prosperous. It tastes really good." Song Xiaoba smacked his lips and said.
Su Liu also poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "It just opened not long ago. After the newness, the business has slowed down."
"That's not the case. As long as you become famous, you won't have to worry about running out of business." Song Xiao shook his head. He glanced around and said, "But this stall is a bit bad after all. If you can open a shop, it will be great."
Even better, just like that Zhang Ji, you know, some wealthy families don't like stalls like yours, they care about ostentation."
Su Liu raised his eyebrows, tapped the rim of the tea cup with his hand, and said jokingly: "Hey, I don't know how someone like you knows how to do business!"
Hearing the overtone, Song Xiao's handsome face turned red and he said displeasedly: "I am like this, and am I like that?"
"It sounds like a stubborn man." Su Xiaogang took an empty cage from the next table and walked over, interjecting.
Song Xiao's face darkened and he stared at Su Xiao, looking very angry.
Su Xiao glanced at him sideways and said: "Why, you are still not convinced? You are not too young, right? You are still running away from home at such an old age. You are homeless, pfft, you are living on your own.
At someone else’s house.”
"Who's cheating?" Song Xiao's face turned red and white after being stabbed. He took out a money bag from his waist and slapped it on the table and said, "I'm here to pay for the meal now."
Su Xiaodeng smiled broadly and wanted to reach out to take it, but Su Liu coughed and glared at her. She curled her lips and walked away.
Seeing Song Xiao's anger, Su Liu shook his head. You name it, this person is sometimes shrewd and cold, sometimes he is as vindictive as a child, and he is always good at being good. It's hard for people to understand.
Song Xiao saw Su Liu's probing eyes and was really annoyed this time, saying, "Why, you also think I'm a scoundrel."
He was born into a wealthy family, but he had never been a freeloader or a scoundrel. However, Su Xiao regarded him as a scoundrel. This was something he couldn't bear. He was so angry that he threw away his money bag.
Su Liu chuckled, pointed at him and said: "I don't blame you, Xiaoxiao. How old are you, and you still act like a child. She is still a child. Do you want to argue with her about this?"
Song Xiao snorted softly, as if he was a little embarrassed, and his ears were a little red, and said: "I'm not lying. Tell me, how much money does last night's meal and the current one cost?"
"Don't tell me that you are too stubborn. Now I see you as a second-generation ancestor. Are you using money to hit people?" Su Liu picked up the money bag and threw it back into his arms, saying: "I want it for real."
If we accept money from you, then we will really be out of touch."
Song Xiao frowned and looked at Su Liu. Seeing that she didn't look like she was telling lies, he couldn't help but ask: "Why? I've only met you two or three times in total. In fact, we are really unfamiliar. You guys are also small books.
Business."
"Originally we were really not familiar with each other, but you have already come to my house for dinner, which is considered acquaintance." Su Liu said with a sly smile: "Also, do you remember what I said last time, that you agreed to support me.
"
"So what if you remember?"
"Are you the young master of a wealthy family?" Su Liu suddenly asked, "If I'm not mistaken, your status should be high, right?"
Song Xiao's eyes flashed, and he became wary. He immediately put away his playful smile, showed a look of disgust on his face, and said in a cold tone: "Why, are you also trying to climb a high tree like your concubine?"
Is she also such a person? She only wanted to climb high, and Song Xiao suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Su Liu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You are really right, I really want to climb a high branch."
As soon as he said these words, Song Xiao's face suddenly turned cold, and the aura on his body immediately changed, and he looked at Su Liu coldly.
"Don't look at me like that." Su Liu didn't feel scared at all. He just pointed at Chen and the others and said softly: "You have seen what is going on with the three of us, right?"
Song Xiao was startled and remained silent.
Su Liu then said: "I'm not afraid of making you laugh, so I'll tell you to listen. In the past, my mother and I were just punching bags in that home. As for me, I was said to be an unlucky person when I was born. Being able to survive can be regarded as a blessing from the Bodhisattva."
, I was not stoned to death because I was lucky. Now I finally left that home and opened such a stall, but what happened? Why did Qierzhang dare to provoke us? Isn’t it because we are orphans and widowed mothers?
Don’t you have anyone to support you?”
"Besides, if we had someone to support us, who would dare to see us as orphans and widowed mothers and bully us? Song Xiao, you grew up in a wealthy family, but you don't know that this human life has never been valuable. Ordinary people have no one to support us.
If something happens to those who are in the forefront, they will just be in trouble and run around in vain. Yesterday it was Ci'er Zhang, and tomorrow it will be Ci'er Zhang, Chen and Li. We can hide from it.
After the first day of junior high school, can you still escape the fifteenth day of junior high school?"
Song Xiao didn't expect that she would say that, and was stunned on the spot.
"You also grew up in a wealthy family, so you have seen a lot of life and death, especially slaves. You will be beaten to death if you ask for it. Why? This is power, power, and capital. Yes, this is the world where the weak eat the strong.
, but when you are still young and not strong, if you want to live and live well, you must rely on a big tree. It is easy to enjoy the shade under a big tree. You must have heard of this, right? That’s what it means
.”
Su Liu glanced at him and sneered: "I can tell you clearly that I want to climb your high branch just so that you can help us if something happens in the future. If you don't want to, I will
It’s impossible and I won’t force it.”
Song Xiao muttered: "I thought, I thought you..."
"What? You think I'm attracted to you?" Su Liu snorted and looked at him with a half-smile.
"Nonsense." Song Xiao blushed. In fact, he really thought so. Su Liu acted like a nymphomaniac the first time he met him, and said he wanted to climb high. It was hard not to misunderstand him. Who knew?
She just wanted to find someone to support her.
"Don't worry, I'm not that big-hearted, and I never thought about marrying into a rich family." Su Liu sneered lightly and said disdainfully: "I'm just climbing your branch because I want to find a backer."
"Why?" Song Xiao blurted out.
"what why?"
"Don't all women want to marry a good family and have no worries about food and drink?" Song Xiao was very surprised.
"That's right, but you have to be self-aware. It's good to have a big family, but in a place with a lot of people, there are a lot of disputes. What's the point of living a life without peace of mind? As for wealth, I can earn it myself.
"Su Liu looked matter-of-fact.
"You are exaggerating." Song Xiao gave her a cold look.
"Why, you don't believe it?" Su Liu looked back and said, "In the past, who would have thought that I would open such a stall today, and who would know whether I would be able to earn enough to eat and drink tomorrow?"
She was full of confidence, and the brilliance on her face said, yes, she can earn such wealth.
Song Xiao was speechless for a moment.
"Besides, not everyone wants to marry into a wealthy family. If she is a real wife, that's it. If she is a concubine, she might as well marry a farmer's wife."
"So, you picked that Ning Guang?" Song Xiao squinted over.
"Ning Guang is fine. He wants to marry after all. He has no one and nothing, so he is a good choice." Su Liu shrugged.
"You feel relieved." Song Xiao said sarcastically, "Do you know him as a person? Do you know his past? I think he is quite young, not a few years younger than his aunt, right? Who knows if he has
Wives and concubines?”
Su Liu was startled and frowned, she really didn't know this.
Song Xiao became even more angry when he saw it, and said: "I advise you to see clearly, don't be betrayed and help count the money!" What a stupid woman, Ning Guang can tell at a glance that she is a deep one,
Another secret, only ghosts know his past.
Su Liu was a little unconvinced and said: "What about you? I don't know you, but tell me whose son you are?"
"I..." Song Xiao choked.
"Can't you tell me? Everyone has a past, and everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell or can't tell." Su Liu snorted.
"Who said we can't talk anymore?" Song Xiao was so excited that he stood up and said arrogantly: "You remember your honor guard? I am the fifth son of the Qingzhou magistrate's family, and I am known as the fifth master."
