Mrs. Su and Su Lei entered Bai'an Town in disguise and stayed at an inn here.
After she settled Su Lei, she walked out of the inn alone, walked toward the town, and came to a cloth shop.
After entering the door, she looked at the shop. It was not too small and well-kept. There were many customers in the shop, so she nodded with satisfaction.
She walked to the counter and said to a waiter: "Ask the person in charge of your family to come out and discuss anything."
The waiter glanced at her, didn't move, and asked, "I wonder what Madam has to do with the shopkeeper."
"He knew it when he came out. Why are you asking so many questions? You can't make the decision." Mrs. Su gave him a hard look.
The waiter was not annoyed and smiled politely: "Madam didn't explain her purpose, and it's hard for me to report it. Our shopkeeper has strict requirements, so why don't you explain it to me?"
"You are so nagging, just tell your shopkeeper that someone from the master's family is here and you want to see him." Mrs. Su said impatiently.
After the waiter looked at her carefully again, he nodded, said "Wait a moment" and turned around and entered the back hall.
After a while, the shopkeeper, who was in his forties, came out. The waiter pointed at Mrs. Su and whispered to him: "That's the lady."
The shopkeeper nodded, waved to him, and walked towards Mrs. Su.
"I heard that Madam is here, what's the matter with you?" The shopkeeper smiled at her.
"You are the shopkeeper of this cloth shop, right? I am here from the master's family. I want to pay some money from you for travel expenses. Whatever money is left in the account now, please give it to me, Mrs. Su." Mrs. Su said as she spoke.
, took out a seal from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took it and looked at it, then turned around and took another piece of paper to cover it with. He only glanced at it and raised the corner of his mouth with a cold smile.
After returning the seal to Mrs. Su, he looked her up and down and said in a cold voice: "Madam, are you looking in the wrong place? The owner here is not the person printed on the seal.
Madam, it’s better to search again.”
"Impossible, isn't this the Jinxiu Cloth Village? How could it be wrong? Your master is Su Wenbin in the capital... You don't want to deny it, right?" Mrs. Su glared.
The shopkeeper took another step back, clasped his hands in front of him, and said politely to her: "Look, Madam is looking for the wrong one. This is indeed Jinxiu Cloth Shop, and there is only one with this name in Bai'an Town."
Buzhuang, but our master’s house is not the Su Mansion in the capital, please come back after Madam has confirmed it, excuse me."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Mrs. Su stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, saying loudly: "Stop, please tell me clearly, who is the owner of this shop?"
"I can't tell you this. Anyway, it's not the person Madam just mentioned. It's not appropriate to ask Madam to let go." The shopkeeper still looked kind and cheerful.
But the customers in the shop all looked at her strangely, feeling that this woman was a lunatic and was here to cause trouble.
Mrs. Su didn't agree. She clearly remembered that this shop was the property of the Su family.
She asked again: "Please tell me clearly, the original owner of this shop was named Chen, and later changed his surname to Su. How could it be different?"
After the shopkeeper shook off her hand, he took two steps back, distanced himself from her, and then said: "Madam also knows that this shop has changed owners. The original surname was indeed Chen, and later it was changed to Su.
Now it has changed again. You don't know. You can't say that we lied to you. Madam, you should go back and ask for details before looking for it. Don't make trouble here. You must know that this Bai'an Town is a land with royal law. If Madam is not afraid
I don't mind if you go to the government office."
Mrs. Su could only walk out of the shop disappointedly. Looking back at the shop, she felt a chill in her heart.
What she was afraid of finally happened, and things changed!
After returning to the inn in despair, Su Lei asked her about the situation, and she shook her head in despair: "The shop has changed its owner, and it can't pay at all."
"What! Can't pay? What should we do? Then we have to starve to death. I don't want to eat those steamed buns and pickles anymore. Those are things that even pigs won't eat. Also, what are you wearing?
The servants in our family are all better dressed than this, please think of a way, why are you sitting here in a daze?" Su Lei scolded her loudly.
Mrs. Su shook her head helplessly: "Now we don't have a contract in hand. Even if we come to the door, we can only rely on this inscription. Don't worry, let me think about what other shops are there along the way."
."
"You are just a loser. You listen to that damn old man for everything. You never thought about what you would leave behind. Give him everything. It's better this time. Let him screw us all up. If it weren't for him,
Could we be in this situation today?" Su Lei roared as he pounded the bed board under him hard.
Mrs. Su raised her eyes and looked at him, feeling even more sad in her heart. This was the son she loved with all her heart. To this point, not only could he not comfort and share his burdens, but he also blamed her. It really chilled her heart.
She slapped the table and stood up, glaring at Su Lei: "You only lose your temper. From the time of the accident at home to now, have you done anything useful? If you hadn't bragged and caused trouble, would you be like this today? This
I gave you delicious food and drinks along the way, did you feel I was losing a bite? Now this is not what I thought, why are you so angry at me?"
"If you weren't useless, then believe that old fox, would we be where we are today? After all, you were originally the daughter of a wealthy businessman with a lot of money, but now you are penniless. You are still reasonable. Let me
Did you follow you all the way to escape just to drink from the northwest wind? You kept saying that I am the boss of the Su family and will inherit the Su family's property, but where is the money? There is none, not a penny, and I won't leave!" Su Lei!
He yelled, grabbed the pillow on the bed and threw it at Mrs. Su.
Mrs. Su was also angry. She flicked her sleeves and said, "If you don't leave, stay here. We'll see if you will be thrown out if you don't have money to pay for the room. Anyway, I'm leaving. If you have the ability, don't follow me!"
"
Mrs. Su slammed the door and walked out. She didn't take three steps when she heard Su Lei's angry roar coming from inside the house. She leaned on the pillar outside the door, closed her eyes sadly, and shed a line of tears, muttering.
: "What kind of thing am I raising...Why do you treat me like this..."
When the mother and son got into the carriage with cold expressions and without looking at each other the next day, they heard the driver from before say: "Madam, sir, I will send you two here. The rest of the way will be by
Brother Sun sent you off, but he only sent you two to the arranged house in Yizhou City. If you want to go elsewhere, you will have to pay another two cents. Have a safe journey. I'll take my leave.
."
"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Su raised the curtain of the car and stared at him: "What do you mean by abandoning us? Is this your own decision, or is it the intention of His Highness King Chen?"
The coachman glanced at her and smiled coldly: "You two are the first civilians who can afford me. I have escorted you here. I have done my best to repay the favor to King Chen."
Your Highness, you two, really cannot use my kindness. Okay, let’s get on the road. If you don’t leave, you will really not be able to get out of the city.”
Mrs. Su wanted to say something more, but the carriage moved, and Su Lei complained again: "You know that fool is unreliable, so it's just you. You still believe that King Chen dotes on her and doesn't harm everyone in our house."
It would be nice to die in the capital, I really don’t know what you think.”
"What do I think? I want to save my life, my life, and yours too. If you don't want it anymore, you can get out of the car now!" Mrs. Su also yelled with him.
As soon as they left the city gate, a group of officials rushed to the city gate and posted a wanted notice, and on it, it was Mrs. Su and Su Lei.
