Rebirth as Princess Jin again
Chapter 364 Tracking
The summer rains come at any time, and the weather that was clear just a moment ago suddenly pours down with heavy rain.
Su Zhong stood in the corridor, looking at the raging rain outside, thinking that Liu Yinghong had asked her to bring an umbrella in the morning. He thought he was too verbose and went out without an umbrella. Now she would be stuck outside. Not even if you don’t leave.
The place where he stood happened to be a restaurant. Seeing that he was well dressed, the waiter hurriedly went out and asked enthusiastically: "Sir, it's raining heavily outside. Why don't you go in and have a drink."
Su Chong glanced at the waiter and followed him through the door.
"Look, it's time for dinner. Do you want to serve you two snacks? It's raining heavily outside. Please be careful and don't get wet!"
The waiter walked behind him wisely, shielding him from the rain coming from behind.
Su Zhong's eyes glanced around the hall. It was raining hard, and most of the people who came to the store were taking shelter from the rain. It was just dinner time, and they were eating on the way. His eyes suddenly stopped at a table in the corner.
The young man sitting on the table happened to look at him. The moment he saw him, his eyes lit up. He stood up and waved to him: "Second uncle, come and sit here."
Su Zhong stepped forward and walked over, followed by the waiter. He came forward and asked, "Two guests, what do you want to eat?"
"Bring over your store's signature dishes, you can arrange the rest, and have two bottles of wine!"
With that said, Su Cheng took out a piece of silver from his pocket and handed it to the waiter, and then took out a piece of broken silver and handed it to the waiter: "This is for you."
The waiter said happily: "This... you have given me too much."
Su Cheng said calmly: "If you hadn't pulled me into the store at the door just now, I would be afraid that my clothes would get wet."
The waiter thanked him and soon brought a pot of tea.
Su Cheng poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Zhong, and said in a disguised voice: "I heard that my second uncle's business has been doing well recently. Even the regular customers of my shop have now gone to my second uncle's shop."
Su Zhong said modestly: "It was just introduced by an acquaintance in the past. Maybe my tea supply is good."
Su Cheng smiled politely and said: "Second uncle, can you take care of your nephew? No one is visiting my nephew's shop now. The daily expenses of raising people in the shop are very high, and it is about to close down."
Su Zhong was a little embarrassed and said: "I won't hide it from you. I just work for people. As for the goods, they are delivered to the store by the owner. I don't know where those goods come from. I just sit in the store." Sell the goods.”
Su Cheng leaned forward and said with interest: "Why don't you introduce the master's family to me? As for the benefits, second uncle, don't worry. If my nephew makes money, he will definitely be indispensable for it."
Su Zhong remembered that "Muying" helped him and told him that he could not reveal to anyone that the prince helped him.
Looking at Su Cheng who looked interested, he refused: "It's not that I won't tell you, but that I really don't know."
Seeing his evasive expression, Su Cheng clearly knew in his heart, but he clenched his teeth and refused to let go. He was afraid that his words would make him suspicious, so he stopped asking further questions.
The waiter quickly brought the food to the table, and the table was filled with sumptuous food. It was almost noon, and I was really hungry. The two of them exchanged glasses and chatted while eating.
However, Su Chong was extremely vigilant, fearing that his secret would be exposed if he drank too much. After drinking a few glasses, he stopped touching the wine glass and replaced the wine glass in his hand with a tea cup.
After drinking and eating, the wind and rain outside suddenly stopped, and the sun couldn't wait to emerge from the clouds.
Su Cheng offered to take Su Chong home in a carriage, but Su Chong declined his offer.
Su Zhong was humming a little tune and looked very happy. But when he walked to the door, he saw a letter on the ground when he opened the door. He looked around and saw no one passing by. trace.
He closed the door, then opened the letter and saw that it was "Muying" who asked him to meet.
As soon as Su Chong walked to the backyard, Liu Yinghong smelled the strong smell of alcohol on his body, and immediately turned cold: "Where are you fooling around again? Now that our life is just getting better, you are starting to lose control again."
Although their life is better now, they are still not well-off, and they only hire a few rough ladies to help take care of the housework.
Su Chong was the only wife left by his side now. He was busy coaxing Liu Yinghong: "No, I met Cheng'er while hiding from the rain on the road, and Cheng'er invited me to drink!"
Liu Yinghong's face softened a lot. Su Chong lost all his family property in gambling, and also the whole family. Now only this house is left, and even the original servants have dispersed.
She knew that Su Wu was still alive, but seeing her husband in such a bad state, she did not dare to tell him the truth, for fear that he would rely on her only son again.
When her son had such a big accident, and when she saw her own sister die in the hands of her wife, she only thought that this was fate.
If her parents' family hadn't become more and more depressed now, she would have thought about leaving during the days when Su Zhong was addicted to gambling. Where could she have gone? Even if she went to the border to find her son, there would be no money. As a woman, she probably wouldn't have reached the northern border yet. He starved to death on the road.
But that day, after Su Zhong lost all his money and came back, he told him that he had met a noble man and found a good job. Although she didn't believe it, she watched him slowly hire servants for the family and handed the money in her hands. There were more and more, and she no longer doubted it.
But these days she was always uneasy, always feeling that something was wrong. Su Chong had never done business before, he was just a reckless man.
In the past, he was used to living a pampered life in Su Mansion, and accumulated a lazy temper.
He was not as steady as Su Quan, let alone as shrewd as Su Wen, but she had also visited the shop and found that it was indeed crowded, with people coming and going to buy tea every day.
Su Chong hurriedly changed his clothes and was about to go out again. Liu Yinghong couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going after you just came back?"
Su Zhong waved his hand towards her: "There is still something to do in the shop, so you don't have to wait for me for dinner."
Su Cheng, who was hiding in the darkness of the alley, watched Su Zhong go out and cautiously walked towards another alley. That road was clearly not leading to the tea shop, so he followed him quietly.
Su Zhong had studied martial arts and served as a soldier, so he was more vigilant than ordinary people. Su Cheng did not dare to follow too closely.
Seeing Su Zhong turn into another alley, Su Cheng quickened his pace and followed him.
Suddenly, a crisp sound sounded in the quiet alley. Su Zhong turned around suddenly, only to see a black shadow flash into the alley next to him.
Su Zhong stepped forward quickly, only to see that there was no one in the alley, except for the broken tiles at the corner.
Su Zhong's heart finally relaxed and he quickened his pace and walked forward.
When Su Cheng came out again, Su Zhong had already disappeared.
He looked at the broken tiles on the ground, turned around and walked out of the alley. He had already been discovered. The square tiles were a warning that could make him unaware that the person following him would definitely have better martial arts than him, but he I don’t know why this person didn’t take action directly.
