Crowned with Pearls

Chapter 187: One hundred and eighty-six. Contempt

Views:

Wang Yuerong is very beautiful.

Different from Su Xingxuan, who looked as pitiful as a lotus after the rain, she had upturned eyes and a bright look. She was a pretty girl with a sharp look. Su Yao saw the most essential difference between her and Su Xingxuan at a glance and couldn't help but smile slightly.

No wonder Su An doesn’t like it.

It's just his own perspective.

When she looked at Wang Yuerong, Wang Yuerong was also looking at her. She had always heard that the real daughter of the third branch of the Su family had been found. She had been engaged to Su An before, so she naturally knew about this, but she had never seen her.

Later, because of the scandal between Su An and Su Xingxuan, she lost interest in Su family affairs and never saw this Fourth Miss Su again.

Now seeing it for the first time, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.

I heard that Su Yao was raised outside for a few years, and after being brought back, he was kept in the He family to learn the rules because he was not well behaved.

With Su An and Su Xingxuan in front of her, she didn't actually have much hope for Su Yao, always thinking that he was just so-so. But she didn't expect Su Yao to be like this.

She was very pretty, the standard appearance of the Su family, with beautiful peach blossom eyes complementing her oval face. It was not surprising that she was so pretty. The key was her calmness. She did not look as bad as Su An and the others said before.

On the contrary, her behavior was natural and generous, with a gentle and calm smile on her face, and it was obvious that she had received an excellent upbringing.

Wang Yuerong's eyes were gentle, and she smiled and walked forward to hold Su Yao's hand: "Seeing is believing, you are not quite the same as I imagined."

How to get along with these rich ladies is a great art. Su Yao was hastily married off just after she came to the capital in her previous life. She was already overwhelmed by the mess in the Cheng family and had no time to take care of other things. As a result, after she was actually entrusted with the financial management of the Cheng family, no one in the capital bought her account.

Everyone knew that she did not deserve the title of Lady of Changping Marquis, and no one responded to the invitations she posted.

People cannot live alone without others.

She should have friends and people to socialize with, otherwise it would be just like what Su Rong said, she would be really pitiful to look at.

Therefore, Wang Yuerong showed her kindness, and she smiled and said, "You are just like what I imagined."

Wang Yuerong's eyes darkened slightly, and the smile reached all the way to the bottom of her eyes.

No matter how you look at it, Su Xingxuan's matter was reported to the Su family by her and her eldest brother, and it wasn't a pleasant experience. Asking the Su family to cancel the engagement was somewhat aggressive. It was not surprising that the elders could distinguish the important from the unimportant, but a junior like Su Yao didn't care at all. It was obvious that he thought it was a good idea for her to cancel the engagement.

This alone shows that he is not a foolish person.

Wang Yuerong laughed: "We were just talking about Ruyi, who is the most delicate one. We didn't know what your personality is like. It's a coincidence that you are here. Let's get to know each other."

As she spoke, Su Yao had already noticed many eyes on her.

"Is this the one from the Su family who was kept outside for many years before returning?" Someone snorted rudely and laughed sarcastically, "Tsk, Ruyi got sick as soon as she came back. I thought she would recover after a while, but who knew she would die..."

Her expression was meaningful, and her tone was full of sarcasm: "It can be seen that nothing in this world is more important than blood ties. Ruyi was so precious and noble at the beginning. She went to school with us. Mother sent her to school in the morning and picked her up in the evening. But only a few years later, she passed away."

The yard suddenly became quiet.

Everyone could hear the malice and speculation in these words.

Yes, before the biological daughter came back, the adopted daughter was the center of attention. But after she came back, she died of an inexplicable illness. This would be a story that could be speculated about in any family.

Wang Yuerong frowned. Others might not know, but she knew the general reason behind it. How could a person who seduced a brother who was already engaged be a good person

However, she couldn't tell the truth, otherwise the Su family would still lose face, and the Su family might even think that she was still angry and spread these rumors intentionally.

She smiled apologetically at Su Yao, then turned around and said seriously, "Life and death are determined by fate. How can it be controlled by human power? Today is my coming-of-age day. You are not allowed to mention these things anymore."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Whether it was mentioned or not, everyone ignored Su Yao. Even when Wang Yuerong pulled Su Yao aside, others deliberately ignored Su Yao, making it clear that they did not intend to accept her as a playmate.

The ladies have few opportunities to go out, and even fewer to visit and make friends with. Most of them have been playing together since childhood and have long formed a circle.

Su Ruyi was once a member of this circle.

Now Su Ruyi is gone, and it was announced to the public that she died of illness. However, due to her special status, it is always easy to arouse people's imagination. In the eyes of these people, she, their biological daughter, is naturally regarded as the culprit.

But these things are getting worse the more you explain them.

Since he couldn't explain it, Su Yao calmed down and smiled at Wang Yuerong: "When I just came here, I saw a litter of kittens basking in the sun in your garden..."

Wang Yuerong was just feeling awkward about the sudden silence, but when she heard what Su Yao said, she heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed: "That's a Persian cat owned by a foreign merchant. My eldest brother thought it was pretty, so he bought it for the sisters to play with. If you like, go and have a look."

She was the hostess and couldn't walk. Seeing Su Yao was eager to try, she waved to the maids and asked them to take Su Yao over.

Just as Su Yao stepped out of the door, he heard a strange sharp voice behind him: "Hurry up and bring the broom over, sweep the place where she stood, it's really unlucky!"

Su Yao paused for a moment, but pretended to be unaware and walked out the door - today was Wang Yuerong's coming-of-age ceremony, and these girls were obviously from the same circle, so they would naturally stick together when they made a fuss. If she really wanted to fight back, people would just say she was immature.

Wang Yuerong immediately frowned and looked at Su Yao nervously. She had heard about Su Yao's story. Her aunt respected her very much. Xianyi also said that she was scheming but decisive, and not someone who would just accept things passively.

If there was a commotion today, her previous marriage with the Su family would inevitably be brought up again and cause discussion, but she still had important life matters to be discussed by the elders today...

But Su Yao's back soon disappeared around the corner.
