"It's the Qin family's business." Yu Dong had already inquired about this, knowing that Su Yao would definitely ask about it. When he heard Su Yao asking, he smoothly told him the story: "Shops on Zhengyang Street are very expensive, not everyone can afford to buy one. Those who can own a shop there must be rich or noble, and they all know the name. That dim sum shop has been around for a long time, and everyone knows that it's the Qin family's business."

The Qin family is the family of the now popular Princess Zhuang.

Su Yao blinked.

Yu Dong endured it again and again, but still couldn't help but worry: "Miss, if the one who instigated Wen Shichang to make trouble is really the Qin family..."

Now the family finally got a moment's respite, but the Qin family became more powerful because of Princess Zhuang's pregnancy, and the two families were originally enemies...

He knew Su Yao's personality and also knew that Wen Shichang's behavior was really disgusting, but he still wanted to persuade Su Yao to keep quiet.

Su Yao could naturally hear what he had not said yet. She raised her eyebrows and said nothing more, "I know. Go find Wen Shichang and say a few words to him for me."

Yu Dong didn't expect that Su Yao would ask him to pass a message to Wen Shichang. He was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react.

By the time Yu Dong left, it was already completely dark. Yan Cao asked someone in the meeting room to bring in a lantern, shaking her head as she said, "Look, when you came out you said you were going back soon, but in the blink of an eye it's already this time again, and Mom is still waiting for you to go back for soup."

Su Yao did not reply.

It was somewhat beyond her expectation that it was someone from the Qin family who instigated Wen Shichang to come to the Su family to cause trouble.

When Qin Chen got into trouble, she actually only came up with an idea, but the ones who actually carried it out were the Pang family.

Now that Prince Zhuang is in power, the Qin family has been able to take a breather. Why would they want to offend the Su family at this time? Just look at Prince Zhuang's behavior. Prince Zhuang is very polite to Mrs. He and the Su family.

King Zhuang has no intention of offending the Su family. As King Zhuang's in-laws, even if the Qin family wants to take revenge, they should unite to deal with the Pang family. At the very least, it should be Song Heng.

Song Heng was heavily involved in the affairs between the Cheng and Wen families this time.

But the Qin family avoided these two main families and came to the Su family. Why

Su Yao didn't quite understand.

She returned to her room, and sure enough, Mother Shen had been waiting for her to come back for soup. When she saw her, she started to get busy and had the food served. She then said to her, "You never have a chance to sit down and eat properly all day. How can your body handle this?"

The crucian carp's gallbladder was not removed, so the soup tasted delicious with a slight bitterness. Su Yao couldn't help but frown as soon as he took a sip.

Mother Shen hurriedly asked her: "Is it too bitter?"

"No, it's just right." Su Yao smiled and shook his head at Shen's mother. "I just thought of something. This soup is delicious. It tastes like the soup you made when I was a child. I haven't tasted it for a long time."

Mother Shen couldn't help but look nostalgic: "Yes, at that time you and the young master were both obedient. It was obvious that I didn't pinch your gallbladder and it was very bitter, but you two always drank it obediently..."

"Drink everything?"

Su Xingyi came in from outside with a smile on her face. Seeing Su Yao drinking soup, she sat down as well: "So you are eating."

Su Yao stood up in a hurry. Seeing that only Chun Ping was following behind her, she asked her to sit down quickly as well: "Sister, have you eaten yet? If not, let's eat together."

Su Xingyi nodded, and Mother Shen hurriedly asked someone to add a set of bowls and chopsticks, and also served Su Xingyi a bowl of soup.

Su Xingyi took a sip and asked Su Yao what happened on the street today: "The old lady didn't tell me, but I knew it was nothing good. What happened?"

Su Yao guessed that she came for this, so he told her what happened on the street today.

Su Xingyi was silent for a moment, put down the noodle soup in her hand and said sarcastically: "She has been following his wishes all her life. Now that it has come to this, she is still following him. She is really rare in the world."

Her face was calm, and she was obviously not angry about this matter. She just stared at Su Yao and asked, "Do you know who is instigating behind the scenes? I know the nature of them and their son very well. They seek benefits and avoid harm. If no one is making trouble behind them, they won't do this." After a pause, Su Xingyi said directly, "Someone is doing this behind the scenes, and it is clearly targeting our family. Guo Chongxing committed suicide before, and Chunyan wanted to kill me. I don't believe that this was just the idea of the Wen family father and son. If they had this brain and courage, they wouldn't have to marry me."

Someone was deliberately using all means to deal with the Su family behind the scenes, which made Su Xingyi feel like a thorn in her back.

The old lady is old and her brother has physical disabilities. She doesn't want to be kept in the dark and not even know who the real enemy is. However, the old lady and her brother are very secretive about these things, fearing that she will be too deeply involved.

She knew her brother and the old lady's good intentions, but she didn't want to be just a burden to them.

Although they didn't spend much time together, Su Xingyi had a natural trust in her.

Su Yao really didn't hide anything: "The people I sent to follow Wen Shichang said that Wen Shichang didn't go anywhere else except to a dim sum shop. Which dim sum shop is owned by the Qin family."

Su Xingyi frowned.

Qin family

Mrs. Qin was pushing the freshly made pea yellow to her daughter with great joy. Seeing that she was still able to eat it, she couldn't help but put her hands together and chanted: "Amitabha, God, you can finally eat something."

Princess Zhuang leaned on the couch with a pale face, looking very weak: "I have been unable to use any strength recently. All I want to do is lie down and sleep all day long. I have no energy and can't eat. It's just that these snacks you brought today are still edible."

"This is inevitable." Mrs. Qin felt distressed and happy at the same time. She sighed and sat on the edge of her daughter's bed and said, "It was the same when Mom was pregnant with you. It will be fine after the first three months."

Princess Zhuang frowned, put the cake in her hand back on the plate, and couldn't help bending over to vomit again.

Mrs. Qin hurriedly patted her daughter's back and asked someone to bring water for her to rinse her mouth.

Princess Zhuang waved her hands, and after a while she finally felt better. She leaned back on the pillow and asked Mrs. Qin in a bad tone, "Have you finished everything? Don't let your brother mess it up again."

Mrs. Qin was a little embarrassed: "How can this be possible? Don't worry, it's just that Wen Shichang is a useless spineless man. His mother died, so he didn't dare to risk his life to make a scene... but was easily dealt with by the Su family..."

Princess Zhuang snorted, "What about over there? Brother wouldn't mess up that as well, would he?"
