Chapter 288
"Miss Su?" Mr. He looked at him, his eyes a little unclear.
"Yes, yes." The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead, swallowed, and then continued: "Yes, it is Miss Su who opened a rouge shop in Yancheng."
"What does this matter have to do with her?" Mr. He frowned and looked at the steward who was speaking.
He knew that his youngest son was close to that Miss Su. Even when the economy was in recession due to natural disasters two years ago, his Zuitingxuan still relied on Miss Su's methods to stabilize his position.
But this girl Su left Yancheng last month, how could this matter have anything to do with her?
"When our Rouge Village invited Miss Su, it was after that time that the Rouge business in our village suddenly improved. Later, when Miss Su left, this batch of goods was made using the recipe she left behind. .”
"You mean there's something wrong with the recipe she left behind?" Mr. He looked gloomy, still playing with the box of rouge in his hand.
"Probably not. This batch of goods is the same as the previous recipe, but this time there is no Miss Su watching in the village."
The steward's voice trembled as he elaborated on his conjecture.
"The formula is the same. Without her, the things will become fake?" Mr. He snorted coldly, but did not throw out the box of rouge.
"Master, the business of our Rouge Village was not good at the beginning. It was the young master who invited Miss Su and she got the recipe for free. It was because of her that the business of our village got better. Now, now she left……"
The steward closed his eyes and didn't care anymore. He just told everything he knew as if he were pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
"I'm just guessing that Rouge did well in the past because of Miss Su's presence."
"Asshole!"
Mr. He slapped the table and cursed.
"I am a member of the He family. Is it possible that if we open a shop without an outsider, the business will not be successful? I'm afraid you are deceived!"
The steward said nothing.
Nowadays, the He family has long since fallen apart and dispersed, but it is just glamorous on the surface.
If it hadn't been for Miss Su, Rouge Village would have closed down long ago, but now that it's better, this lady has driven Miss Su away, so the business will naturally be bad, right?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mr. He's face suddenly turned pale.
How could his He family have to rely on a woman to do business?
"Go away, I'll give you another half month. If this matter can't be handled well, don't come to me again!"
Mr. He got angry, and the steward bowed and left in a hurry.
He Fu, who was on the side, saw his master's angry face, and finally tried to persuade him: "Master, I think what he said makes sense. Maybe the problem is not the prescription. This prescription was brought by Miss Su. Everyone knows this. , naturally there won’t be any problem. Maybe there is nothing wrong with the recipe itself, but it’s just missing something. Usually, Miss Su is watching over Rouge Village, so she can naturally join in without anyone noticing. Now that she’s gone, there’s no one around. When you add things in, the recipe is incomplete, and that’s why it’s not done right.”
Mr. He turned his face slightly and motioned for him to continue.
He Fu hesitated for a while, then continued: "I know you don't believe that, sir, but this Miss Su is really not an ordinary person.
Even I knew a little bit. She was not from Yancheng, but how could she enter Yancheng smoothly when there were refugees everywhere?
And she also opened a rouge shop when she had nothing. Our Zui Tingxuan relied on her method to stabilize her feet without damaging her vitality. "
Mr. He nodded in agreement. At that time, the city was in chaos, and even the accomplices of the former city lord were found out. Many aristocratic families were in panic all day long, for fear that they would be implicated.
But Miss Su went to Zuitingxuan alone and used two methods to bring the restaurant back.
It was also because of this that he gave her some shares in Zuitingxuan.
As for Rouge Village, he really didn't know.
Because Zhuangzi was new in the past two years, he also wanted to let his youngest son practice, so he gave full power to his management.
Zhuangzi has achieved good results in the past two years, and he really thinks it is his youngest son's contribution. After hearing this blessing, he is afraid that he has something to do with Miss Su.
Thinking of this, Mr. He's expression began to change.
The fifth item selected for this Shang Hui was Miss Su’s ice cream, but in the end, she was kicked out by her own wife.
The reason he relied on was that Su Tao was just a farm girl, so the recipe for ice cream had a shady origin, and her family background was also suppressed.
After thinking about the whole thing, Mr. He's face became even uglier.
"Master, do you need me to invite the young master?" He Fu saw that his master had a very bad expression and knew that he had figured out the reason.
After all, a woman who can cause such a big disturbance in Yancheng alone is not a good person.
Miss Su was willing to come to the He family at first, just because she wanted a chance to cooperate. For the He family at that time, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
"Go and call that scoundrel." Mr. He waved his hand and sat on the chair.
"Yes, sir."
He Fu responded in a low voice, bowed and left the study.
Mr. He was slightly in a trance.
Zui Tingxuan has been suspended for half a month because of that incident, and the calculated losses are not small.
Thinking again of what his wife said before she left, Mr. He rubbed his brows helplessly.
This time the matter has passed like this, but Peng Xin can no longer stay in Yancheng.
Over the years, he has reaped enough benefits from relying on his own family.
Young Master He has been making trouble in his room for a long time.
At this moment, I heard He Fu coming to look for me, and I guessed that my father was in trouble.
Then he suppressed the joy in his heart and said, "Uncle Fu, what does my father want from me?"
"It has something to do with Miss Su."
As soon as he finished speaking, Young Master He had already opened the door.
"Uncle Fu, hurry up, let's go to the study." Young Master He said excitedly and couldn't wait to go to the study. However, he hadn't eaten well in several days and almost fell to the ground after just two steps.
"Master, please slow down." He Fu was a little distressed to see him acting like this, so he hurried to help him up.
"Uncle Fu, please tell me quietly, what does it have to do with Miss Su that my father is looking for me?"
Young Master He pulled Uncle Fu's sleeve and whispered.
"It's related to Rouge Village." After all, he grew up watching it, and Uncle Fu didn't hide it from him.
"Is it related to Rouge Village?" Young Master He was stunned. He thought it was his marriage to Miss Su.
He wanted to marry Miss Su and go home, but his mother-in-law tried to stop him in every possible way. Now he was forced to leave, so he went on a hunger strike.
"Yes, all the rouge our Rouge Shop sent out half a month ago was returned, saying it was from Xibei. Even other shops stopped cooperating with us. Now we have lost 20,000 taels all at once."
"This, what does this have to do with Miss Su?"
"Perhaps, the recipe given by Miss Su is incomplete."
The young master of the He family was stunned for a moment. The recipe was incomplete. What did that mean?
