When Su An excitedly entered Su Xingxuan's yard, the yard, which was always full of laughter and joy, fell silent. Only the fat parrot hanging on the corridor shook its wings and shouted excitedly when it saw him: "The young master is here! The young master is here!"
For a moment, the courtyard finally came alive again. The little girls who had been keeping warm in the side room came out one after another, some opening the curtains, some going to report, and they were busy.
Su An was holding a very delicate-looking gold-painted box in his hand. Seeing them being so careless, he subconsciously frowned: "How did you serve me? Are you always so lazy?"
He was just bullying his sister because she was good-natured.
The little girl didn't dare to say a word.
Su Xingxuan was in a bad mood, so only the four older maids, Yonghe and Yongge, and the maids in charge dared to come forward to serve her. How could they dare to get into the room
Fortunately, Su An's mind was not on them. He said something casually and went up the stairs. He stood in front of the lovebird for a few steps and teased it for a while before he lifted the curtain and walked in.
Yongge heard the noise outside and was about to come out to greet him. When she saw it was him, she waved her hand hastily, sighed and lowered her voice: "The third lady is unhappy. If there is nothing else, why don't you come back later?"
Su An was stunned. He grew up with Su Xingxuan and their relationship had always been much closer than other siblings. He had never heard that there was anything to be avoided.
Even Mrs. Su San didn't tell him that boys and girls over the age of seven should not sit at the same table, but for some reason in recent days, Su Xingxuan often asked him to observe the rules.
Now he is not even allowed into the house.
He suddenly felt very uncomfortable, pursed his lips and asked unkindly: "What's going on? Am I still an outsider? Why is Ruyi angry with me?"
Yongge hesitated to speak, and after he urged her again and again, she sighed and said, "It's not that the Third Miss is angry with you. It's that the Third Miss herself is in a difficult situation..."
It was a fine day, the sun was shining brightly outside the window, and Su Xingxuan's favorite crabapple tree in the yard would soon bloom in the spring.
But Su An's heart seemed to be gripped by something.
His face darkened: "Is it because of Madam Sang's matter?"
Yongge didn't want to answer him, but Su An yelled at her, so she had to lower her voice even more: "Master, why do you ask when you already know the answer? No matter how bad that girl is, she is Madam's biological child after all, and she crawled out of Madam's belly. Our girl's status is embarrassing to begin with, and she can stay in the mansion only because of Madam and Master's kindness. But even so, look at the old lady and the neighboring room, who really takes our girl seriously?"
The room was burning with Su Xingxuan's favorite lily incense, and Su An's face became increasingly ugly.
"Life was hard to begin with. If you hadn't been willing to take care of me, I would have had a harder time." Yongge said with tears in her eyes, "This time, the incident with Nanny Sang happened again. When the news came back from Taiyuan, our girl was in the Madam's room. They didn't say that Nanny Sang was wrong or that Zhenzhu was bold. Instead, they kept hinting that it was our girl who was causing trouble and provoking you..."
Su An doesn't know about this yet.
He gritted his teeth and said, "What does this have to do with my sister?! It was me who didn't want that unpresentable thing to come home, and Aunt Sang listened to me. Besides, if she knew the importance of this and knew that this was her home, how could she be fooled? She's just a useless person, who can she blame?"
Are my grandmother and aunt also confused
Ruyi is such a good girl, but they are still leaning towards that country girl?!
Yongge became even more anxious after hearing this. She cried out and begged him hastily, "My young master, what are you talking about? The Third Madam even told the girl about this matter, saying that they are getting older and older each year. Although they are siblings, it is not right for them to be together all the time. She asked her to be careful in the future and avoid gossip. Think about it, our girl has such a thick skin. She has been wronged like this. Does she want to live? And you are still making a fuss here..."
As she spoke, she pushed Su An out angrily, "You'd better leave. We all know that Nanny Sang's matter has nothing to do with the girl, but what's the use? Seeing that the ladies over there all think that the girl is too thoughtful, our wife is also angry, and our girl has no way to defend herself. You must not cause her any more trouble."
The evil fire in Su An's heart was rising rapidly.
It was clearly him who ordered Nanny Sang, what does it have to do with Su Xingxuan
The mother simply felt that Ruyi was not her biological daughter. She knew Ruyi's temper very well, but she still took it out on Ruyi.
Yongge said that now the village girl hasn't come back yet, but her mother's heart has already been tilted. How can she have a happy life in the future
Not to mention my grandmother and aunt who were fanning the flames.
This country girl!
He doesn't have much ability, but he is very cunning. He even got his grandmother and second aunt to support him.
He sneered, handed the box in his hand to Yongge, and said coldly: "Take it! This is a kite with five blessings and a birthday decoration made by Zhang, the waiter in Changsha. Isn't Ruyi most envious of the young lady in the Changqing Marquis's Mansion for having one? I spent a lot of effort to get it. Just consider it as an apology to her. Tell her not to be angry, or I will make that village girl pay for it!"
As he spoke, he turned around and left in a hurry. No matter how Yongge shouted at him from behind, he couldn't come back.
Yongge shook her head, turned around the screen and quickly placed the box in front of Su Xingxuan. Smiling, she opened the box and took out the exquisitely crafted and priceless kite: "Young lady, you are right. How can the young master bear that you ignore him? He has been the best to you since you were a child. He is eager to bring you all the good things..."
The title of the Earl of Yongding is a bit awkward. Originally, after the old earl passed away, the title should have been inherited by the eldest master of the first house. However, who knew that when the eldest master was hunting, he failed to guard the tiger properly, causing a tiger to hit the third prince, and almost causing the young third prince to die. As a result, although the eldest master made amends for his crime and died to protect the third prince, the title still remains vacant.
The eldest young master is a paraplegic and can only sit in a wheelchair.
After much calculation, the biggest possibility for this title is that it will fall to the third house, which means it will eventually fall to Su An.
With Su An's appreciation, Su Xingxuan actually no longer has to worry about anything. Everyone in the mansion knows how much Su An dotes on his younger sister.
Su Xingxuan glanced at the kite with a gloomy expression.
