Chapter 18 Chapter Seventeen
·Reason
In the evening, Mrs. He specially asked the kitchen to make pine mushroom chicken soup. She was concerned that Su Yao's diet should not be greasy when he was recovering from a serious illness, so the fat on it was skimmed off, leaving only a yellow soup that was steaming under the light.
Before she had time to drink, Master He's voice came from outside. Mrs. He put down the bowls and chopsticks, let Master He in, and asked him: "How's it going? Is everything done?"
Mr. He came in with a chill all over his body. He shivered before he recovered. He nodded along with Mrs. He's words, glanced at Su Yao again, and then said softly: "Mom, don't worry, the goods have been seized from the canal transport."
It's all been returned to the Shen family. They spent all their money on this batch of goods before, so they couldn't make up for the turnover and almost had no choice. Now that the goods are given to them, they should seize the time to transport them to the capital, just in time for the Chinese New Year. Or
Their luck - the imperial concubine recently wore a dress with glittering brocade support, and now everyone in the capital is flocking to this material."
The Shen family also had their own tricks. They traveled across mountains and rivers to Sichuan to get a batch of goods. They originally planned to sell them in the capital at a high price. However, under the deliberate suppression of the Su family, there was a problem with the water transportation. The governor of water transportation personally sent a message to them.
The goods were withheld, and the governor personally sent word. The Shen family and his wife put in an unknown amount of money, but they still lost everything.
Of course, it's different now.
Mr. He rubbed his hands, coughed and said, "Mom, Brother Gu, over there."
Su Yu begged him to do this. How would he reply to Su Yu then?
"Don't pay attention to him." Mrs. He's brows turned cold. She didn't want to mention the grandson who couldn't carry her. She just asked Mr. He to go back quickly to change clothes and eat: "Your wife has been waiting for you for a long time."
Mrs. He likes to be quiet, and she never likes having children eat with her. Mr. He didn't think anything of it. He sighed and was about to leave. He turned around and couldn't help but glance at Su Yao who was standing there quietly and saluting.
Scratched his head.
What's going on?
Su Yao was still quiet and docile, but when he looked at his niece, he always felt that he was looking at another person.
Moreover, they did not avoid Su Yao at all when they said that the Shen family was in trouble. Su Yao knew that his brother was working so hard for his fake sister, so why didn't he react at all?
But of course he wouldn't ask out loud. If he asked, he would be suspected of instigating the relationship between their brother and sister. The palms and backs of his nephew's and niece's hands were full of flesh. In fact, he was also a little dissatisfied with Su Yu this time.
At such an old age, how come he still doesn’t realize that everything he does has consequences?
After returning home, he also said the same thing to Grandma He: "I found out clearly that this matter is really not my sister's intention. To suppress the Shen family, it was Brother Yu himself who vented his anger on Ruyi. I heard that it was because the Shen family and his wife were old.
Come to your door and make Ruyi have nightmares every night."
Grandma He Er sneered.
Having nightmares?
Only those who have done too many bad things will feel guilty. Su Xingxuan is young but so sinister. How can she not have nightmares?
"It's all hard to carry." Second Grandma He personally filled the soup for him and handed it over, shaking her head: "Brother Yu is making too much trouble. If Ruyi has been his sister for more than ten years, they have been together since childhood.
Growing up, the relationship between Yaoyao and Yaoyao is naturally deeper than that of Yaoyao who has never met before. This is also human nature. But after all, Yaoyao and his mother have a compatriot, there must be some kind of love, he did such a cruel thing just for a wish.
Hands, too much."
Grandma He Er thought of another thing - her sister-in-law had previously planned to marry her niece, and wanted Su Yu to marry her niece.
I used to think that the status of the two families was well matched, but now that I think about it, I might as well make it clear to my sister-in-law when I go back.
Otherwise, if Su Ruyi doesn't like her niece, wouldn't Su Yu want to beat her wife for her? How can a child from an aristocratic family be successful in the future if he doesn't even have the most basic ability to distinguish right from wrong and acts purely on the basis of likes and dislikes?
Su Yao could guess what Second Grandma He was thinking.
When she returned to the yard, Shen's mother came up to her. Seeing that her eyes were red and swollen, she knew that she must have cried. She felt a little sad and followed her step by step. She called her "girl" and said, "Please rest for a while." ?Our things have been rearranged, I made a list, do you want the new girls to take a look at it too?"
Su Yao entered the room, took a look at the list from Shen's mother, and smiled slightly. She actually hadn't accumulated anything in these years. What the Su family gave to her at the beginning were those from Mrs. He and her uncles and aunts in the past few years. Most of the rewards went into the pockets of Nanny Sang and Pearl.
However, now they turned around and were back in her hands.
The bracelet has been polished several times by Shen's mother, and it lies in the black lacquered wooden box with a shiny luster, emitting a faint green light.
"Shall I bring it to you?" Shen's mother knew how much she cared about the bracelet, and thought she was happy to have it back and hurriedly went to take it out.
"No need." Su Yao closed the box calmly, even his tone was calm: "It's troublesome, put it away, there is no need to take it out again."
She will never look back. She once lived a serious life and worked hard. She indeed still has a lot that she doesn't want, but she will never fall back into it just for these things.
Just like this bracelet, she will never wear it again.
Rather than trying to win the favor of Mrs. Su San and the others, Su Yao was more eager to find out another thing.
Aunt Sang had never encouraged her to meet the Shen couple in her previous life. Although it sounded like she looked down upon herself, she knew clearly that in her previous life, Su Xingxuan did not take her seriously at all and only regarded her as a person for others to admire. The clown who was having fun looked at her with cold eyes and her head was broken and bloody in order to please the Su family.
So in this life, why did Su Xingxuan, who had a high self-esteem, step up her game and seem to be determined to completely lose the favor of the elders of the Su family before she enters Beijing?
The answer to this question should be with Aunt He.
Aunt He said that she was afraid that this marriage would not happen to her in the end.
marriage
Su Yao sneered, thinking about why she was treated as a victim and married to the Cheng family after entering Beijing - why did Cheng Ding'an fight with Su Yu? Wasn't it because Su Xingxuan was originally rumored to be selected as the fourth prince's concubine, but in the end she was When he failed, Cheng Dingan made rude remarks and was beaten by Su Yu.
I see.
But it's a pity that when she comes back, everything will change again.
This time Second Grandma He will also return to Beijing together. The second Grandma He who was taken advantage of may not necessarily do anything to Second Master He's nephew Su Yu, but her anger will definitely be vented on Su Xingxuan.
It is impossible for the He family to serve as a link for Su Xingxuan anymore.
Thank you for the reward from a distant world, I will work hard, okay.
