The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business
Chapter 19 Returning Home
Su Zhihao was fine when he walked out of the bookstore, and he didn't feel any psychological pressure. But Su Ankang was extremely nervous at the moment, and his palms were full of sweat. He tried his best to control his expression and act calm.
Su Andong looked at Su Ankang who remained calm and felt that he had underestimated his second brother. This second brother was still able to hide things and was very smart. It was just that he had never seen a big scene and still needed experience.
After walking a distance, Su Ankang finally couldn't help but whispered, "Third brother, you are really amazing. Second brother admires you! Such a book can sell for so much money."
"This is a one-time deal! We are in a hurry to sell it, otherwise we can sell more! But this is the best case scenario, we can only sell it all at once, otherwise we are afraid that others will be interested in it."
Then he gently bumped his son's shoulder and said, "Be alert and watch out for anyone following us."
“Not found yet”
Su Anton was relieved when he heard his son's answer. His son had been a soldier and had learned how to track people. If he said no, then he probably meant no.
When Su Ankang, who was standing next to him, heard this, he immediately became nervous again.
Su Andong put the inkstone and other things in Su Zhihao's backpack and said, "Second brother, don't be nervous, be more natural."
Several people put everything in their hands into the backpack. While paying attention to whether anyone was following them, they walked around in circles. They had to remember that Su Zhihao had come out to explore the way yesterday, otherwise they would be lost.
After confirming that no one was following them, Su An Dong and the other two hired a carriage on the street and went to Ruyifang.
After arriving at Ruyifang, she picked up the embroidery work, paid the money, and signed a document similar to a cooperation agreement, in two copies, one for each party.
After everything was done, the three of them didn't delay any longer and went straight to the city gate to meet up with everyone else.
When they arrived at the city gate, they met up and hurriedly drove the carriage back to Qianchuan County.
Su An Dong quietly gave the banknotes on his body to his daughter. It is safest to keep the money in the space.
Su Yuanyuan secretly put the silver in her brother's backpack into the space. As for her second uncle's, she did not touch it in case he would check it.
Because Su An Dong had specifically told me not to ask about the book in the car in the morning, and to wait until I got home to talk about anything. If the driver asked, he would say he was going to buy some daily necessities. So no one mentioned this matter along the way.
On the way, a strange thing happened. Su Anton seemed to hear his wife talking in his ear as if she was on the phone, asking him whether he would go home today.
Su An Dong was still sitting on the shaft with the driver as he had done when he came here. He asked the driver, "How long will it take us to get to the county?"
The driver replied, "We will arrive in one hour."
Su Anton repeated: "It will only take one hour to reach the county! That's fast." There were people here, so he didn't dare to say anything more.
Then I heard my wife's voice in my ear: "Oh! Okay. I'll prepare dinner for you."
At this moment, Zhou Huilan at home hurried to find Old Lady Su. She was a little excited, as if she also had a golden finger.
The two avoided the crowd and spoke quietly: "Mom, I was just wondering if they would come today. I thought it was really inconvenient in ancient times. If it were modern times, I would just call Dong Ge and find out. Then in my mind, it was as if I had a phone call with Dong Ge. I asked him if he would come home today. I heard him say that it would take another hour to get to the county."
Old Mrs. Su was very happy: "Really? That's much more convenient. Huilan, try again now to see if you can still get through."
"Okay, I'll try!"
Zhou Huilan closed her eyes and thought about talking to Su Antong again. She tried several times but failed.
Zhou Huilan opened her eyes helplessly: "Mom, no, it doesn't work. I'm not hallucinating!"
"It's okay. It's not a hallucination. Let's see if these people come back tonight. When they come back, we'll ask the third brother and we'll know."
"Okay, let's wait until they come back!"
They arrived at the county smoothly, and then they hired an ox cart at the city gate and headed straight home.
It was already dark when I got home. In order to save some money on lamp oil, many farmers had gone to bed early, so there was no one on the village road.
Su Anton and his companions unloaded their things, paid the driver the fare, and saw him off before he knocked on the door.
Old Mrs. Su had given instructions in advance, so everyone in the family had a tacit understanding and moved things into the house quietly without making any noise.
The family entered the main hall, and Old Lady Su said, "You must be hungry! Let's eat first, and we'll talk after that."
As Zhao Yun placed food on the table, she said, "Mother was very foresighted. She estimated that you would come back tonight, so she asked for dinner to be prepared. And you actually came back."
Old Mrs. Su looked at Zhou Huilan a little guiltily and said nothing.
After dinner, the family sat in the main room, and Su Anton recounted his trip to the capital in detail, saying nothing except the matter of the bookstore.
Zhao Yun knew that her third brother had given her an embroidery job, and was afraid that she would not do a good job and would have to pay the five taels of silver as compensation.
Su An Dong encouraged, "Sister-in-law, you have to believe in yourself. Lan Niang from the embroidery workshop praised your embroidery pieces and said that your embroidery skills are perfect. They also like your embroidery skills, otherwise they would not give us this embroidery work."
Li Hongmei also echoed: "Yes! Sister-in-law, your embroidery skills impressed Lan Niang at first sight."
Old Mrs. Su and Su Anping also encouraged Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun gradually gained confidence after hearing what everyone said. She also wanted to make a good embroidery in her heart, so she thanked Su An Dong, "Thank you, Third Brother. I am sorry for your trouble. Don't worry, I will do my best to make this ornament."
"We are all family, so please don't be polite, sister-in-law."
The atmosphere at this time can be said to be full of joy.
Old Mrs. Su looked at the children whose eyes were shining as they listened, and thought that some rules had to be established.
Old Madam Su raised her hand: "Everyone be quiet, I have something to say."
Everyone looked at Old Madam Su's serious expression and sat upright, waiting for her to speak.
"Let's set up some house rules! I'll say one first, and I'll add to it later. You guys should listen to me first to see if I'm right."
Su Anton responded first: "Mom, you talk and we listen." Others quickly agreed.
"The first rule is that family matters cannot be told to outsiders. A daughter-in-law cannot tell her parents' family about family matters. After a girl gets married, she cannot tell her parents' family matters to her husband's family. She is even more forbidden to tell outsiders. You must keep your mouth shut." After saying this, he looked at the people in the room seriously.
"This world has only been peaceful for a few years, and no one knows what will happen in the future. I believe you all understand the principle of not showing off your wealth."
Everyone responded one by one: "We all listen to our mother."
"Don't think that just because you agree to something, you're done. I mean what I say. If you break the rules, I'll punish you according to the family rules. If there are any serious consequences, you'll be kicked out of the family."
When they heard they were being kicked out of the house, everyone was obviously panicked and expressed their opinions one after another: "Don't worry, Mom! We will definitely abide by the rules."
Old Madam Su looked at the children again and said, "You too should not tell outsiders about family matters. Do you understand?"
The children nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Grandma. We won't tell anyone about our family's affairs."
After all, the youngest, Su Yuanyuan, is already 9 years old, and the children are aware of the seriousness of the matter.
Seeing everyone's attitude, Old Mrs. Su felt much more relieved.
