However, there is no benefit in mentioning these things at this time.
Su Yao was a little absent-minded.
Because he was a little uneasy, Su Yao made small talk: "Brother, there were nearly ten thousand people surrounding us, how did you get them to disperse? I originally thought that I would have to ask Uncle Jian to find a way to go out and look for you, but who knew that they would retreat on their own first."
Actually, she was not without a solution, but Madam Yang and Yang Qingyu could only intimidate those people with ulterior motives at best. Su Yao herself was not sure about their further effects, so she was inevitably constrained. After all, the Ji family now had the wives of officials from all over Kunming. If something went wrong, it would be a major event that shocked the country.
Su Rong felt bad when he saw that her eyes were all black and blue from all the hard work. He was even more furious when he thought about how much she had been wronged. He told them about how Yang Binqing and Councillor Yang were caught by them. "His Highness said that a cunning rabbit may have three burrows, but this kind of self-righteous people always think that the most dangerous place is the safest place. He guessed that Councillor Yang was in the ancestral home of the Yang family. Fortunately, he guessed correctly, so we sneaked in and caught Councillor Yang and his men."
Su Rong also briefly described what happened next, and then he let out a long sigh: "Luckily you came up with a plan to hang Madam Yang and her daughter on the memorial archway, so that those private soldiers would be afraid to act rashly. Otherwise, we would not be able to catch up in time."
After a few words, Grandpa Ji and others hurried over. The officials who had brought people to find a solution but were stopped by the people also came and asked to see Xiao Heng.
When people are busy, they usually don't have time to think about other things, but once they are free, the previous chaotic thoughts will come back again, and with great force. The doubt that has troubled Su Yao for several days now resurfaced. She pursed her lips and looked at Xiao Heng, but finally did not speak.
never mind.
After a while, Tang Qingfeng also arrived and called out softly, "Your Highness, there is news from Cui Daru."
Cui Daru should have come to report what happened on the mountain, and there are still a lot of things waiting to be finished.
Xiao Heng nodded and looked at Su Yao intently. Before leaving, he said to Su Yao, "I have something to tell you. I'll come to see you later."
Su Yao's heart was pounding, even though she didn't know what he was going to say. But for some reason, many things in her heart had changed since that night.
She finally just nodded.
It is hard to tell whether he is happy or unhappy, whether he is expecting something or not.
Xiao Heng stared at her for a while, then turned and left.
Su Rong's heart was in his throat just now. He had already guessed what Xiao Heng was going to say, but Xiao Heng didn't say it in the end. He looked at his sister with complicated eyes, and he couldn't tell what he was feeling more. He just said something to Su Yao and followed him.
Su Yao stood there for a while, thought about it, and then quietly returned to his yard.
Madam Yuan was playing with Niuniu and Kang'er in Su Yao's yard. When she saw Su Yao coming back, she stood up and greeted him with surprise: "County Lady, are you okay?"
Niu Niu also staggered towards Su Yao and opened her arms for Su Yao to hug her.
They have been basically together these days, and Niu Niu has become very close to her.
Su Yao opened her arms and held her in her arms. Niuniu giggled and called her in a baby voice, "Auntie, hug me."
It was unclear what generation they were in, but Su Yao still smiled as he listened. He held Niuniu in his arms, patted her on the back, and said to Madam Yuan, "It's all right. His Highness and my elder brother have returned, and the people have all left."
"That's good." Madam Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and followed Su Yao back to the inner room. Originally, Madam Yuan wanted to say goodbye, after all, Su Yao really didn't sleep the whole night last night. But seeing Su Yao absent-mindedly playing with Niuniu with the rag tiger, she stopped her action of picking up the child and quietly watched Su Yao playing with Niuniu. After a while, she asked softly, "Is there anything bothering you?"
It's not that Mrs. Yuan's observation skills are particularly sharp, but having been inseparable from Su Yao these days, Mrs. Yuan has already gotten to know Su Yao quite well. No matter what time it is, Su Yao is always full of energy, as if she has endless energy. Although she is quiet, she is never in this state.
So, Mrs. Yuan asked this question.
Su Yao was a little stunned. She looked up and saw Madam Yuan looking at her seriously and concernedly. She pursed her lips again.
In fact, Su Yao has always been accustomed to solving his own problems.
When she was a child, the Shen couple often went to buy goods and sail. She stayed at home with her younger brother and took care of everything. She was sensible since childhood. But when she went to the He family, she was walking on thin ice and had to read people's faces. Thinking about it carefully, Su Yao had never met a woman who was considerate and taught her wholeheartedly.
Even for Mrs. He, the first heart-to-heart talk between the two grandmother and granddaughter was after she was reborn, on the eve of her return to the capital.
After all, it was a little too late.
So Su Yao always felt that he was not good at expressing himself.
She usually uses pros and cons, trade-offs, and gratitude and resentment to decide her attitude towards a person.
However, this time, she really encountered a problem.
For a person who has lived her life again, it would be too pretentious to say that she doesn't understand anything. Therefore, Su Yao actually knows clearly that her attitude towards Xiao Heng is different.
She first had this feeling in Beijing. When she heard the news that Xiao Heng had an accident in Yunnan, she immediately made up her mind to come to Yunnan in person.
Although she tried her best to remain calm when talking to Song Xiangyu, her chest was actually feeling stuffy at that time.
This feeling was unprecedented, and to Su Yao, it was so strange and terrifying.
One day, she would not be convinced by her own analysis and would not be able to look at a person or a thing rationally.
This has made her realize the change.
Then, when Xiao Heng was led to the high platform, she didn't know at first that the person on it was not Xiao Heng, and her heart skipped a beat with nervousness, and then she became a little annoyed.
It was different once or twice, she could deceive herself into thinking that nothing happened, but it happened again and again, and no matter how hard she tried to convince herself, that feeling wouldn't fool anyone.
Xiao Heng is special to her.
It’s not because he was Song Heng in his previous life, and it’s not because they are allies.
When she saw him, she couldn't help feeling happy from the bottom of her heart, as if a flower had bloomed from her heart.
