Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

Qian Xiuzhu wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said softly: "Sister Xu has suffered so much in the past, and she will be safe in the future. I don't ask for anything in this life, I just want our family to be safe."

Jiang Boliang patted his wife's hand with a sigh on his face, and the couple fell asleep separately.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone in the Jiang family got up early. After eating dumplings, the adults were busy giving out red envelopes to their children. Shen Su was especially generous. The red envelopes were filled with silver coins. You can’t kowtow to him twice more.

"It would be nice to wish Mr. Marquis a happy New Year. It makes me want to kowtow." Jiang Dalang whispered to Zheng Liniang in a low voice.

Zheng Liniang gave him an angry look, "How old are you, are you ashamed?"

Jiang Dalang smiled and showed his white teeth at Zheng Liniang, his eyes full of tenderness.

At this time, Lidong walked into the house with a lot of things in his hand. The voices in the main room stopped, and Jiang Boliang asked, "What are these?"

"This is a gift for me to meet my nephews and nieces. I was in a hurry yesterday and only asked someone to deliver it today."

"Why, why do you let the Marquis spend so much money? They are all your own children, what kind of meeting gift do you need?" Jiang Boliang said repeatedly, "No, no, no, it's really not necessary."

Shen Su smiled and said: "It's all my intention. Before I sent him away, I learned from Miaomiao. Brother Jiang, please don't refuse."

When it comes to this, Jiang Boliang has nothing to say. The younger generation in the family, except Shen Huaixu, all have a meeting gift.

Shen Huaixu looked at it with a smile, it doesn't matter, her New Year's money is heavy enough, hehe.

After that, Shen Huaixu, Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Wei took Jiang Fu and Jiang Rong around the village asking for lucky money.

Naturally, the children who went to Shen Huaixu's house were both old and young, and they all knew that the Marquis was there, and the red envelopes would definitely be indispensable.

Not only people from Jiuxi Village but also people from Zhou Lizheng's family next door came to Jiang's house to pay New Year's greetings. Their faces were full of joy when they came and they were extremely happy when they left.

The results of Shen Huaixu's group were also young and old. Jiang Rong had a round face and looked very lovable. Shen Huaixu was even more interesting. He was pulled and asked non-stop, and he never stopped talking from the beginning to the end.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the lunar new year. Shen Su was about to leave for the county town, and Shen Huaixu was also planning to follow. He couldn't leave his father alone during the Chinese New Year.

"We will go to the county town to set up a stall in two days, and then we will visit the Marquis when we have time."

Shen Su smiled and nodded in agreement.

There was a heavy snowfall on the seventh and eighth day of the lunar month. After the snow stopped, Shen Huaixu started to work on her business again. She planned to set up a shop and set up a stall outside without any protection from the wind or rain. Especially in winter, when the cold wind blew, she suffered a lot. .

She has a wide network of contacts in the county, and she chose a place within a few days. She paid part of the wages from the village and another part herself, and decorated the shop as quickly as possible. Jiang's Tofu Shop is freshly baked.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, before it got dark, Shen Huaixu took Shen Su to the tofu shop.

The streets were bustling with passers-by, and many lantern vendors began to set up stalls and light lanterns. There are also people doing lion dance, which is very lively.

"Miaomiao, don't run around and stay close to me, do you hear me?" He Su said loudly.

"I know, Daddy!"

Shen Huaixu felt that his eyes were not enough. Modern festivals were also lively, but the feeling was different from now. Everyone was happy and happy from the bottom of their hearts, full of energy and hope, looking forward to a new year without illness or pain. , The harvest is good.

[Host, there is a person three meters away from you at ten o'clock, holding a dagger in his hand. 】

Shen Huaixu felt a shiver in his heart and did not look in the direction pointed by Fu Tuan.

Daddy is on her left, coming for Daddy.

[Five meters away from the rear, there is also a person holding a dagger. 】

[On the roof of the spice shop, someone is holding a bow and arrow...]

······

Two dots of light appeared on Shen Huaixu's hand hanging down on his right side. The light shimmered at the first touch, one swaying and flying upward to the sky, the other flying towards the crowd behind.

At this time, Shen Su stopped.

Lidong immediately stepped forward and said something, and Shen Su's face immediately darkened.

"Dad, why don't you leave?"

Shen Su bent down and took Shen Huaixu into his arms, and helped her put the red cloak and hat behind her on her head.

"Don't be afraid, Miaomiao. Close your eyes later."

Shen Huaixu looked at Shen Su's expression and closed his eyes obediently.

So far, she has not shown her skills in front of Shen Su, so she has no choice but to act like a child.

She didn't know how much time passed before she heard Shen Su say softly: "We've arrived at the tofu shop."

Shen Huaixu moved to indicate that he was going down, "I will fall asleep if you don't come."

Turning around, Jiang Wei, Jiang Fu and Jiang Rong were lying at the door looking at them.

When Shen Su walked into the shop and started chatting with Jiang Boliang, Jiang Wei poked her face and asked, "Are you ashamed, Yaomei? You're so old and you let your father carry you."

"Don't be shy, don't be shy, let our dad hug you, see if he can hold you up?"

Jiang Wei rushed forward angrily. She was a bit greedy now. After a year, she was much heavier than when she was fleeing.

After the fight, Shen Huaixu took the mechanical flying insect back while a few people were not paying attention.

[The people under your father are not simple, they can kill people without making a sound. 】 Fu Tuan said.

[How can someone who has been a general be incompetent? 】

Lidong was very distressed at the moment. After cleaning up the people, he found that two people had died quietly - not quite quietly. One fell from the roof, causing quite a stir.

After asking again, it was found that they were not responsible for the murder of these two people, but they were bleeding from all their orifices and died in extremely miserable conditions.

Leaving a group of people behind to deal with the aftermath, he rushed to the tofu shop without stopping to explain the situation to his prince.

Shen Su thought for a long time and asked, "Take poison?"

"If you take poison, it must be a poison that even my subordinates have never heard of."

"Something strange..." Shen Su pondered for a moment, then asked, "Sent by the Jiang family?"

"Yes. Most of the troubles caused by the children of the Jiang family have been exposed these days, and most of them were settled with money. Now they are all in danger. Jiang Yan has always wanted to see you."

"Send the evidence of Jiang Yan's corruption and bribery to the hands of Guo Ning, the left minister of the Criminal Department of the capital."

"Yes."
