Su An's face remained stiff until he walked out of the study.
From childhood to adulthood, he had never suffered such injustice, not to mention being slapped mercilessly. This slap was not just a slap on his face, but a slap in his heart.
It’s all because of that annoying Su Yao!
He closed his eyes, turned around and ran to Hengzhiyuan to find Su Xingxuan.
Su Xingxuan's favorite lovebird was no longer on the shelf. There were only a few blue emeralds and white-breasted emeralds hanging quietly in the corridor. He was stunned for a moment before asking Yongge, who had already lifted the curtain and came out, "Where are the birds?"
Yongge looked back, with a flicker in her eyes, but soon she smiled as usual: "Miss, why bother to detain it? Let someone take it out and release it."
Su An was a little surprised. He remembered that Su Xingxuan liked this lovebird the most. He bought it from the seventh brother of the Changning Earl's Mansion for three hundred taels of silver.
But he didn't take it seriously. He nodded and was about to walk past her.
Yongge hurriedly held him back, frowned and shook her head in embarrassment, forcing a smile and saying, "Sir, it's really not appropriate for the young lady to see you now. She just cried in front of the Madam, and she also knows that you went to the study to be punished. At this critical moment, even if you are not afraid, you should think more about the young lady. I heard that the fourth young lady will be here in two or three days at the latest. Let her live a peaceful life for a few more days."
Su An stopped immediately, feeling a sharp pain in his heart.
Yes, even he was beaten. No matter how much his mother doted on him, she still had to consider his father, grandmother, and grandmother-in-law... ..
Ruyi must have suffered a lot of grievances.
He clenched his fists and comforted her through the door curtain: "Ruyi, you should have a good rest and don't think too much. I will take care of everything. I will never let you suffer the grievances of that wild girl!"
Yongge sighed, waited for him to leave, lifted the curtain and entered the room. The first thing she saw was the bloody lovebird lying on the ground. She couldn't help but think of how Su Xingxuan had just come back and stabbed the parrot with scissors. For a moment, she felt her blood boiling and she almost vomited.
Yong He was much calmer than her. She had already recovered from her panic. With cold hands and feet, she took out an old piece of clothing and wrapped the parrot with trembling hands. She whispered, "I'll bury it under the tree in the yard..."
Su Xingxuan's brows were cold and her whole body was covered with a layer of frost.
"Waste!" she finally spat out these words, scratching her palms with her nails, but she didn't feel any pain at all.
She knew it, she knew that Su An was a waste. Whether in dreams or in reality, he was a hopeless person!
If it wasn't for this idiot ruining her plans in the dream, how could she end up marrying someone of lower status? ! And why did she have to plan so painstakingly for him
She closed her eyes, looked at the kite that Su An had given her, and suddenly picked up the scissors that she had used to kill the parrot, and cut the precious kite into pieces.
Closing her eyes, she felt that the parrot and the kite were Su Yao and Su An, and she finally felt better. She turned around and combed her hair while saying coldly, "Handle it carefully and don't let anyone else know."
Yonghe's hands were shaking so much that she could hardly hold the parrot in her hands. She let out a frightened cry before she rolled up the kite and went out.
At this time, Master Su San had already entered Mrs. Su San's courtyard. When Mrs. Su San came up to him and took off his outer cloak, he scolded him with a heavy look: "How did you discipline them?! They are so ignorant. Don't let them get too close in the future! Although they are siblings in name, siblings should avoid suspicion when they reach a certain age. Besides, they are not yet. How can it sound good if it gets out?"
Mrs. Su San's heart skipped a beat. She had never seen her husband so angry with his children - he had always doted on his daughter.
But she subconsciously agreed with her husband's words: "Yes, I have also mentioned it to Ruyi, and she understands it all. This time, I'm afraid it was An'er who acted recklessly. Ruyi is cautious, but An'er is young and impulsive..."
"No matter what, we still have to give an explanation to my mother-in-law and mother in the end!" Master Su San snorted, sat down and drank a sip of tea, and then told Mrs. Su San: "My mother-in-law's return to Beijing is a big deal. She is highly respected. She is the aunt of the late crown prince and the cousin of the late queen. She used to be very close to my mother. Her return cannot be delayed. You go and tell the old lady in person. When she knows, she will be happy."
Mrs. Su San agreed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Her mother has always been reluctant to go out, and she had written to her several times but failed to persuade her mother to come back. But unexpectedly, she has come back now, which is a blessing in disguise.
In the past few years, several families with titles who had committed crimes had their titles returned to them. Even if they were demoted to a lower rank, it was better than having their titles taken away entirely.
Seeing that this was the best time, the emperor missed the old lady more and more. If his mother came back and could reconcile with her mother-in-law, then it would be a natural thing for the old lady to write a letter requesting the return of the title.
She knew that this was what her husband had been thinking about, so she took it very seriously and added, "Yaoyao, that girl, unexpectedly found her mother's favor... Before, I was thinking of letting her learn some rules first. Now, should I arrange for her to live in the main courtyard and let me take care of her myself?"
In fact, Mrs. Su San was very tired of taking care of children.
She had spent so much time raising Su Xingxuan and Su An, and she wanted to do everything perfectly. Even though Su Xingxuan had to suffer a lot when she first learned the rules, she still had many things she was not satisfied with. What about Su Yao, who had grown up in the Shen family? Although he had been raised by his mother for a few years, how could a crow turn into a phoenix so quickly? He must have a lot of problems.
Mrs. Su San initially wanted to hire two maids to teach her, as she was too impatient to bring out the energy she had when she was young.
But now Su Yao had been plotted against before she even returned home. She must be very disappointed with her family. If she was sent to live alone again, I'm afraid she would think too much.
After all, she was raised by Mrs. He. She was overthinking it. She was afraid that Mrs. He also had some doubts in her heart.
Mrs. Su San knew that her mother had always felt guilty about the fact that her children were raised by their grandmother.
Mrs. He herself had suffered from the abuse of her mother-in-law and could not get close to her children, but she did not want her daughters-in-law to suffer the same pain. Although she liked children, she did not insist on raising her grandchildren by her side, which instead gave Su Yao a good opportunity.
Su Yao was the first child she had raised personally for several years, so the relationship between them was definitely different.
Master Su San said without hesitation: "Let's talk about it when we get back. Mother also wants to see her."
