Meishan Su family, Su Yun is the most virtuous

Chapter 19 A friend comes from afar
At that moment Su Yun asked him for something.

Su Yun's approach has always been the most labor-saving. As long as the problem can be solved with money, he will never be stingy with money.

When following Master Chen back to the carriage yard, Su Yun quietly stuffed ten taels of silver into his hand, and then Master Chen's smile became much more sincere.

After bringing his men to the Huicheyuan, Master Chen began to order them to evacuate their things.

"The bed, table, chair, kitchen utensils, charcoal stove and other daily necessities, all should be kept. Carpets and other things should also be left behind. Hey, what's worth taking from the four treasures of the study? Keep them all..."

Manager Chen instructed the workers very generously, and in the end, a dozen workers only took away some calligraphy and paintings, horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts and the like. Those things could not be left behind no matter what.

Even so, Chen still felt a little guilty and said to Su Yun: "The calligraphy and paintings must be taken away. These are all things that have been recorded in the book. Furniture and other things are consumables. There is no problem leaving them behind."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Master Chen is really polite. You have already helped me a lot. I will host you tonight and set up a table at Wangjiang Tower. Master Chen, please call the other brothers from the embassy to come over. Let's have a good drink!"

But Manager Chen declined and said with a smile, "I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't eat for now. I'll treat you when I'm done with my work."

Su Yun laughed and said, "That doesn't make sense, Mr. Chen. When you are busy, I will treat you. This is my thank-you banquet."

Manager Chen just smiled. He could see that Su Yun was a very versatile person. He was willing to make friends with such a young man.

But behind Su Yun was Su Shi, which made him keep his distance. The reason why he was so attentive today was, firstly, it was the instruction of Minister Yu, and secondly, it was the ten taels of silver that Su Yun had given him.

But since Su Yun wanted to take the friendship further, he had some concerns and simply declined.

Su Yun naturally knew what he was thinking and did not force him. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future anyway. A man like Master Chen had a strong ability to avoid danger and seek good fortune, so he could not be forced.

Afterwards, Manager Chen handed the key of the post station to Su Yun, and this time the carriage yard belonged to Su Yun.

Of course, the property rights still belong to the imperial court, but as long as Su Yun is in Huangzhou for one day, he can live here for one day.

Su Yun inspected the carriage yard again. To be honest, the carriage yard was not small.

The so-called Huicheyuan was where officials from the imperial court who were passing through or inspecting lived. Not only was the place large, but the decoration was also quite luxurious. The furniture, tables, chairs, etc. used inside were all good items.

This is also the reason why Su Yun wanted to get the carriage yard this time. Firstly, of course, it was because this was Lingao Pavilion. Secondly, if he wanted to build a house to this level himself, he would need at least one thousand strings of cash.

This place is actually enough for the twenty-odd people in the Su family, but there is no place to receive the original guests, which is not a big problem.

Su Yun planned to build the Snow Hall and the South Hall later, which would be enough to meet the needs of entertaining guests.

Su Yun took a look around and became more and more satisfied. When the workers were moving things away, Chen was watching, so he cleaned up some garbage and other things at the same time, so they could move in directly.

After reading it, Su Yun locked up the back yard and went back to Dinghui Courtyard leisurely. When he got back to Dinghui Courtyard, he saw Su Mai with a sad face, worrying under the plum tree in Dinghui Courtyard.

Su Yun couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, and asked, "What's going on?"

Su Mai said: "Dad received a letter from an old friend, saying that he would come to visit Dad in the next few days."

Su Yun smiled and said, "This is a good thing. Uncle has not been in a good mood recently. Having a good friend come to visit, eat and drink, and have a good chat will make him feel better soon."

Su Mai smiled bitterly and said, "We have no place to entertain these friends. Should we let them stay in the temple?
Maybe the guests don't mind, but it's already a disturbance for us just to stay in Dinghui Temple, and calling friends over is too much.

Dad must feel very embarrassed, and this will probably make him even more upset, alas."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Isn't this a coincidence? We will move tomorrow and go back to the car yard."

Su Mai shook his head and said, "Dad is a convicted official and has no right to stay at the post station."

Su Yun nodded and said, "I have already applied for Huicheyuan from the state government, and my things have been packed. If you don't mind the rush, you can even move in now."

Su Mai was surprised and asked, "How is this possible? How did you convince Governor Chen? He didn't even let us live in his official residence, so how could he give us the post station?"

Su Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry about how it was done. In a few months, my aunt and her family will come over. There are more than 20 people, so how can they live without a bigger house? Let's do this. I'll go find my uncle, and you hurry up and pack your things. We'll move in tomorrow. Yes, tell Zhu Ada and Tian Asan."

Zhu Ada and Tian Asan were still in Huangzhou. Their task not only included escorting Su Shi to Huangzhou, but also continued to monitor Su Shi until his superiors sent a letter to recall him.

Su Mai happily went to inform Zhu Ada and the others. Su Yun smiled at Su Mai's brisk steps, and walked to one side, where was Su Shi's room.

Su Yun talked about the matter with Su Shi, and Su Shi was also very happy. Su Yun's move not only solved his urgent problem, but also solved his future worries.

These days, Su Shi tossed and turned all the time because his family had no place to stay.

Su Shi said with emotion: "Su Yun, it's a good thing that you are here, otherwise your uncle would be really at a loss. But how did you convince Chen Taishou to let us stay in Huicheyuan temporarily?"

Su Yun told the story with a smile, without hiding anything. He even told about the money given to Minister Yu and Director Chen.

Su Shi originally looked down on these frivolous people, but Su Yun was fawning and bribing others because of his family. How could Su Shi blame Su Yun? Instead, he felt guilty and said, "Su Yun, in fact, you have already surpassed the kindness that my mother showed me back then, even if it was just a repayment. You don't have to do this anymore."

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Uncle, I am doing this to repay you, but it is not entirely for the sake of repaying you. I also feel the warmth of family here with you and my elder brother. Please don't treat me as an outsider."

Su Shi was deeply moved by Su Yun's sincere words and nodded repeatedly, saying, "No, no, from the moment you said you were my cousin Su Lin's son, you are no longer an outsider in my heart. From now on, you are my nephew!"
