After traveling through time, she went to practice her way of making money
Chapter 11 Decision (1)
Su Yu gently patted Shi An's head, and Shi An couldn't help but let out a soft "ouch". Su Yu had a faint smile on his face and explained softly: "That's your mother's maiden name." His tone was gentle, revealing his deep attachment and affection for Deng, as if telling Shi An that this was a unique and precious intimate name between them.
Hearing this, Su Daya, Su Shikuan and Su Shirong all widened their eyes in surprise, looked at each other, and then slowly nodded or responded softly. Obviously, it was also the first time for them to know their mother's maiden name, and their hearts were filled with novelty and emotion.
Shi An's eyes sparkled with curiosity and joy, and she seemed to be trying to understand the meaning of this special name. Su Yu looked at Shi An quietly, his eyes full of love, as if he saw Deng's figure through him. His smile revealed memories of the good old days, and people could feel his deep affection for Deng.
Su Daya's face showed a touch of emotion, and she couldn't help but think of her mother's gentleness and kindness. Su Shikuan and Su Shirong also silently savored the name. They didn't expect that their parents had such a good relationship.
Deng's face flushed with shyness, she lowered her head and smiled, her eyes full of happiness. She felt Su Yu's love and respect for her, and this warmth slightly alleviated her worries.
Su Yu looked at Shi An, a trace of kindness flashed in his eyes, and he continued: "Kuan'er, Rong'er, you also have to study hard so that you can protect your mother and sister in the future."
Su Shirong nodded vigorously, as if promising Su Yu his determination. Su Shikuan felt uncomfortable, he really didn't have this idea!
After two or three days, Su Daya and her friends found that their vegetable cakes were not selling well. In order to sell more, they walked through more than ten alleys, but the harvest was not much. When they walked through the streets, they would meet other children or aunts who were selling vegetable cakes like them.
Shi An knew that the business of wild vegetable cakes would not last long. She was thinking about what other business she could do besides selling tofu. At this moment, she felt a little heavy-hearted, with a hint of worry in her eyes. Su Daya became dejected, as if she had lost hope in life.
On the other hand, Su Shikuan was furious. He felt that others were stealing his business, and the anger in his heart burned like a flame. Fortunately, Su Shirong remained calm. He held Su Shikuan, who was about to clash with others, tightly to prevent the situation from getting worse.
At this time, Su Daya and Shi An met up with them. She noticed something was wrong with Su Shi Kuan and asked with concern, "What's wrong? What happened?" Her voice was filled with anxiety and worry, and her eyes were full of concern.
Su Shikuan's face was full of grievance. He held back his tears and said in a crying voice: "We can't sell our cakes anymore..." His voice was full of anxiety and helplessness.
Su Daya quickly comforted him: "Oh, don't worry, don't worry, we haven't sold many yet." She tried to keep her tone calm, but there was still a hint of worry in her eyes.
Su Shikuan became even more anxious after hearing what his sister said. He knew that the family was not well off financially, and that failure to sell cakes meant no income. Without money, they might go hungry, not to mention their dream of learning to read and write.
At this time, there were other people selling wild vegetable cakes nearby. Seeing Su Shikuan's anxious look, someone joked with him, "I say, kid, these cakes are just made of wild vegetables and flour. It's not just your family that knows how to make them, we can sell them too..." There was a bit of sarcasm and disdain in his words.
Another person also echoed: "That's right, let's go sell the cakes quickly..." After saying that, they turned around and went about their own business, seemingly not caring about Su Shikuan's predicament at all.
Su Shikuan felt helpless, tears welled up in his eyes. At this moment, a kind-hearted woman couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted him, saying, "Look, that boy is about to cry, so stop talking about him."
But the man replied nonchalantly: "Let him cry, I didn't do anything to him."
Su Shikuan felt very sad when he heard these people's cold words. He lowered his head silently, tried to hold back his tears, and secretly told himself to be strong.
Shi An tightly held her second brother, whom she regarded as a "child", and whispered to him softly, "Second brother, don't worry, I have other ways to make money..."
Su Shikuan's emotions were like a roller coaster, coming and going quickly. He immediately became excited and asked in a low voice: "Sister, that's great... Tell me quickly, what should we do next?"
Su Shirong, who was standing nearby, naturally heard what Shi An said. Seeing Su Shikuan's noisy appearance, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he gently reminded him: "Brother, keep your voice down, everyone is watching!"
Su Shikuan then realized his own gaffe, and quickly lowered his voice, responding somewhat embarrassedly: "Oh oh!"
People looked at this place and found that there was nothing exciting to see, so the people around gradually dispersed. After all, everyone was out doing business or doing things, and it was impossible for them to stay with the Su family's children to watch the fun. In fact, they had long understood the situation of the Su family. Although they were poor, the Su family had a scholar, and he was also a teacher.
In Xuyang County, scholars were rare, so they naturally would not offend the children of scholars. As for the teasing of Su Shikuan just now, it was more of a good-natured joke and amusement for the children, although Su Shikuan and Shi An might not think so.
After the dean of the academy learned about Su Yu's family's difficulties, he showed great concern for him, not only comforting him with kind words, but also asking him to speak up if he encountered any difficulties. Su Yu knew very well that there is no favor without reason in the world, so after careful consideration, he made a reasonable request to the dean.
Su Yu hopes to be a teacher in the academy in the future so that he won't have to work part-time while studying. This way, he will have more time and energy to focus on his studies.
The dean's surname is Li, and his name is Huairen. Although he is over 60 years old, he is still energetic. There are four major families in Xuyang County, namely Wang, Li, Chen, and Qin. Li Huairen is from the Li family.
He is not only the patriarch of the Li family, a wealthy family in the city, but also the founder of Linfeng Academy, because this academy was jointly established by the Li family and several other wealthy families in Xuyang County. In the past hundred years, many children of the Li family have served as officials in Beijing, and they are the leader of many families in Xuyang County. Many things in Xuyang County and even nearby counties require the participation of their families.
Li Huairen stroked his beard, slightly surprised by Su Yu's decision: "Have you really thought about this decision? Do you need to discuss it with your family?" There was a hint of concern in his eyes, as if he knew about Su Yu's family situation, and understood that this decision was not an easy one for Su Yu.
