When I arrived outside Mrs. Wang's yard, I could hear laughter before I even entered the door.
Old Mrs. Su was accompanied by Mrs. Wang Si into the courtyard. She walked around the antique display cabinet and came to the east side room where Old Mrs. Wang usually rested. She heard the laughter in the room stop.
Everyone present knew that the Su family and the Wang family had been engaged, but now the marriage has fallen through. Naturally, everyone had their own thoughts when they saw that Old Lady Su had come after all.
Old Mrs. Wang was very happy. She called out "old sister" and stood up to greet her in person: "When I heard you were coming, I thought I was dreaming! You are such a little girl and you have to work so hard to celebrate your marriage!"
Old Madam Su laughed, knowing what she meant, and pressed her hand: "You are old now, and although you can't use it anymore, you still have to go out to relax so that it won't go to waste. Fanfen is a good girl, and she is coming of age, so of course I have to come."
Everyone laughed: "Mrs. Su is in good health, why would she say such a thing?"
Although the Su family's title is still hanging in the balance, everyone can see that the Su family is still somewhat favored by the emperor. In addition, now that Mrs. He is entering and leaving the palace again, the signals she gives are enough for a perceptive person to detect something.
Mrs. Wang was all smiles, and beckoned Su Yao to come over: "Little girl, I only saw you once last time, and I knew you were a good person. As expected, I heard that you were fearless in times of danger, and you took care of your grandmother first regardless of the danger yourself. You are really a good child."
This was to help Su Yao show his identity among the other female relatives. Then Mrs. Wang said, "Although you have never grown up with your parents, I see that your upbringing and behavior are not bad. It shows that God is fair."
Speaking of this, those who had heard the rumors couldn't help but ask about it.
Old Madam Su knew of Old Madam Wang's good intentions, so she told everyone about Su Yao and Su Xingxuan's life stories. At the end, she said, "It was because God had pity on us that he allowed this child to come back. It was also thanks to my wife-in-law who raised her carefully for several years and taught her to be so sensible."
This means that although Su Yao was raised outside for some time, he was also carefully brought up by Mrs. He and was no worse than anyone else.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh.
The purpose was achieved. Old Lady Wang smiled and said to Su Yao, "Fenfen is in her room now. The little girls have gone there too. You can go and play with them. We adults are telling stories. Don't be bored."
Today is Wang Yuerong’s coming-of-age ceremony, so naturally all the girls gathered around her.
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang stood up with a smile and said, "I'll take the child over. It's just the right time. Princess Chun'an and the others have also arrived and are all together."
Old Mrs. Wang nodded, and Mrs. Wang brought Su Yao out.
When there was no one around, Mrs. Wang's smile deepened. She asked her softly how old she was, where she grew up during the years when she was not back to the He family, and whether she was still in contact with her adoptive parents.
These questions were too complicated and detailed, so Su Yao calmly picked some answers.
Mrs. Wang Si seemed not very satisfied. She frowned and smiled to guide her: "So what do you have now..."
Before she could finish her question, a woman's sharp accusatory voice came from the woods to their left: "What do you mean?! I ask you, how did Eleventh Brother offend you? Why do you want Shuntian Prefecture to arrest him?! What good will it do you if he loses face?!"
Mrs. Wang's expression changed, and she felt a little embarrassed. She didn't care about the previous topic anymore, and hurriedly said to Su Yao with a smile: "Fenfen's yard is over there, let's go over there."
It was very embarrassing to eavesdrop on other people's secret conversations in their home. Su Yao certainly had no objection. But just as they raised their feet, a man walked out of the woods and met them unexpectedly.
Mrs. Wang's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
Su Yao was also a little surprised, but when he saw the man, he couldn't help but be stunned - it was Song Heng!
Song Heng walked away from the path without looking around. Before Mrs. Wang Si could react, Mrs. Wang Wu caught up with him from behind: "Song Heng! Explain yourself to me, you are just a lowly person with unknown origins..."
She had only said half of her words when she saw Mrs. Wang Si and Su Yao. She could not help but stand there with a pale face.
Mrs. Wang the Fourth couldn't even force a laugh. Mrs. Wang the Fifth was of noble status, and Song Heng was a troublemaker that everyone turned pale when they mentioned him. She heard the content of the quarrel between the two, which was a very secret matter. How could they get along in the future
She couldn't help but look at Su Yao.
Su Yao was adjusting the hem of her skirt, as if she didn't care about anything. When Mrs. Wang Wu came to her, she woke up from her dream, turned around and looked at Mrs. Wang Si and asked blankly: "Fourth Madam, may I ask who... "
Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s okay if I don’t know who he is, and I’m not afraid that she will talk about it to others.
She glanced at Mrs. Five, who also had a gloomy expression, and laughed: "Oh, you don't know..."
After introducing themselves to each other as if nothing happened, Mrs. Wang Wu hurriedly left with her skirt lifted. Mrs. Wang Si took Su Yao to Wang Yuerong's yard. This time she did not continue to ask too much about Su Yao's childhood.
Su Yao was thinking about what Mrs. Wang Wu had just said to accuse Song Heng.
She said that Song Heng had imprisoned his eleventh brother in Shuntian Prefecture.
Did Song Heng put a young master from the Guangping Marquis’ Mansion in jail
He was already in an awkward position in the Guangping Marquis's Mansion.
If it weren't for Marquis Guangping and his son, no one else would have tolerated him.
This was indeed the case in the previous life. Not long after King Zhuang ascended the throne, Marquis Guangping and the Crown Prince both met with accidents. The wife of Marquis Guangping and the Crown Prince removed Song Heng from the family tree without hesitation, saying that his mother was unknown and his background was suspicious.
The relationship between Song Heng and the Song family is visibly bad.
As she was thinking this, Mrs. Wang Si suddenly said, "We're here!"
Su Yao looked up and saw a peach tree in full bloom standing right in front of her. The peach tree was in great bloom, and the flowers had gradually fallen. New buds appeared on the branches. A little girl was picking flowers from the branches and putting them into a winnowing basket. When she saw them, she hurriedly saluted.
Su Yao followed Mrs. Wang into the yard, stepping on the fallen petals on the ground, and saw a lot of people standing in the corridor, seemingly watching some excitement.
As soon as Fourth Mrs. Wang entered, Wang Yuerong, who was standing in the corridor, had already seen her. She came over with a smile and called her Fourth Aunt.
Nodding, Mrs. Wang greeted her to introduce herself to Su Yao: "This is the fourth young lady from the Yongding Marquis's residence. You haven't met her yet."
The last time he came, Su Yao didn’t see the girls from the Wang family.
