After arriving, Ji held her stomach and said she wanted to go to the latrine, and then she disappeared and the others ignored her.
And Su Lu, who was following the crowd as a guard, followed closely after Ji who had disappeared. The two siblings naturally knew what Ji was going to do.
During this period of time, the salesman traveling in the village had a lot of contact with Ji. He knew that a few days ago, the salesman promised Ji 500 taels of silver, gave her a packet of medicinal powder, and asked her to put it in a water tank in the restaurant.
This idiot Ji really planned to do this for the five hundred taels of silver, but how could the brother and sister let her get it.
When Su Yan was at the Bai family, he encountered this kind of thing countless times every year. He had already experienced it. Even if he didn't notice it at first, I believe the restaurant wouldn't let Ji succeed, so he was very worried. rest assured.
Besides, Su Lu is following now.
The salesman Su Wu went with him once and saw people entering the eldest princess's mansion with his own eyes. Su Yu had already guessed the person behind the scenes. Apart from Princess Chaoyang, there was no one else she had offended in the eldest princess's mansion. .
If it hadn't been for what happened this time, Su Yu would have really forgotten about Princess Chaoyang, but what happened this time was a wake-up call for her.
After resting for a while and waiting for Ji's arrival, the group walked out of the back door of the restaurant and out of the alley onto the street.
When Su Yan opened Taihe Building on this street, he mainly took a fancy to the prosperity of this street. Most people with some status in Kyoto prefer to visit this street, so when planning the Su Family Restaurant, Su Yan also chose this street, diagonally opposite Taihe Building.
When we arrived at the alley, the noisy sounds of people on the street reached our ears, and the lively scene came into view as soon as we entered the street.
There was a cloth shop next to it, and Ji immediately had some thoughts.
"Mom, let's go buy some cloth and make a few more clothes when we go back. We're tired of just wearing those clothes back and forth all day."
After the people from the old house came, Su Yu bought four pieces of ready-made clothes for one person, which was already a lot. But now hearing what Ji said, it was obvious that she disliked the lack of clothes that she had prepared earlier.
I thought, without you, I would spend money to buy it, just trying to take advantage of her family.
But thinking about what was going to happen later, just buy it. She couldn't take it with her anyway.
Old Mrs. Li did not object, and the group entered Buzhuang, but Old Man Su was not interested in this and did not go in, so his sons and grandsons waited outside.
Chen Ji Cloth Shop is of a high standard, and the people who come and go are all the wives of government officials, or ladies from wealthy families. When he suddenly saw this group of people entering the shop, the waiter was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately came to greet them.
"Madams, our store just received a batch of new goods two days ago. Do you ladies want to go and take a look?"
Mrs. Li had a sullen face and said nothing, while Mrs. Ji answered the waiter's words from the side.
"Then take us to see it."
The clerk led the group to a row of containers. The left side of the container was filled with silk and satin, while the right side was filled with some excellent cotton fabrics.
Looking at the temperament and clothing of the Su family, the clerk defined the Su family as a family that suddenly became rich. Although the fabrics worn by Mrs. Li and her two daughters-in-law were not bad, how could the clerk not see that with his sharp eyesight? , every piece of clothing has more or less flaws. Rich people will look down on such clothes, and people without money can't afford them. Only those who suddenly become rich but are reluctant to spend money will buy them.
Another thing is that the faces of several people are full of vicissitudes of life. This is something that can only be seen on the faces of people who have lived at the bottom all year round. Instead, they stand aside and say nothing. The two people who look like a mother and daughter do not look like they are together with the three of them. .
Su Yu felt that her mother-in-law and her third aunt had adapted well, and quickly adapted to the life of a wealthy person. Looking at the way they came to shop, it didn't look like they came from the village at all.
Seeing that several people were wearing cotton clothes, the waiter led them here.
Ji didn't even look at the cotton fabric next to her, and touched the satin beside her.
"Mom, this material looks good and feels comfortable to the touch."
The guy stood by and smiled.
"This lady is really discerning. On such a hot day like this, wearing clothes made of satin is indeed cooler than cotton."
"Mom, let's each take one. I think this flower girl is quite suitable."
Mrs. Li looked at the piece of material Ji held in her hand and had no objection.
"Let each of you pick one."
After getting Mrs. Li's correct words, Mrs. Ji immediately smiled. The four of them, plus the two elders, picked out six horses, including their married daughters.
Mrs. Fan was not polite and went up to pick out a piece for each of her family of four. Now she had ten pieces of material, and the waiter on the side was very happy.
Mrs. Fan saw that mother and daughter were motionless and looked at them.
"Second sister-in-law, why don't you choose?"
"We have enough clothes at home, so I won't buy any more this time."
Mrs. Lian felt sorry for the silver, but she didn't show it. He knew that the satin fabric was not cheap, and it cost several hundred taels anyway.
Ji felt disgusted in her heart, she was really lucky and didn't enjoy it. If she had money, why would she wear cotton clothes?
When the cloth was packed and the money was to be paid, when Mrs. Li and others heard that the ten pieces of cloth cost 480 taels, they all looked at the shop and the street, but not at the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, ask the waiter to send the cloth to Suji Restaurant, and ask the waiter to settle the bill with the owner of the restaurant."
Su Yu had more than a thousand taels of silver notes with her, but she didn't want to take them out in front of the old man.
"Okay, I'll ask the guy to send the cloth over in a moment."
As soon as Su Yu said this, the shopkeeper still didn't understand. The mother and daughter in front of them should be the Su family, the owners behind Su Ji Restaurant, and the few who came to buy ingredients were poor relatives who came to fight the autumn wind. Such a thing He encounters them several times a year, which is not surprising.
He just looked down upon Mrs. Li and the others even more. In his opinion, Qiu Feng wouldn't last long if he was beaten like this. No one is a fool these days.
"Sure, I'll ask the guy to send it over later."
Seeing that Su Yu asked the shopkeeper to go to the restaurant to get money, and the shopkeeper had no suspicion at all, Ji's heart suddenly became unbalanced. Why did this damn girl believe the shopkeeper when he told her that he was from the Su family? Believe it or not, he even broke his legs.
Seeing that Ms. Ji wanted to speak, Ms. Fan who was standing by her quickly pulled Ji's sleeve. Ms. Ji turned around and saw that it was Ms. Fan. She remembered what her mother-in-law said before going out, but she said nothing else after all.
Today, Su Lao Er's family is full of money. If they offend someone, where will they get money to buy things?
The counter was at the door, and the grown men waiting at the door naturally heard the shopkeeper's words of four hundred and eighty taels, and Su Shen hurriedly stood up.
"Mom, don't use mine. I have enough clothes, so you don't need to buy them for me."
