"Su Ruyi ran away from home only a few days ago, and my second uncle got into trouble. I have reason to suspect that Su Ruyi was colluding with someone who wanted to frame our family." Su Yao said it lightly, but her expression was serious, with a calmness and self-confidence that did not belong to her age: "I asked the Shen family to investigate for me, but the Shen family is just a merchant with limited capabilities. There are many things that they cannot interfere with..."
Su Rong understood immediately: "This won't work. If it is really as you guessed, then Su Ruyi is now a sieve with leaks everywhere. She has no feelings for the Shen family. If the Shen family is discovered, then you will harm the Shen family instead."
At this point, he looked up at Su Yao and said, "After all, you are short of manpower? I am a cripple, do you think I can help you?"
"Let's be frank. We all know what kind of person Big Brother is, don't we? Now that we have a common goal, why is Big Brother so stingy? I really need help."
She did remember a few people from Cheng Dingan's side in her previous life, but even so, she had to have some manpower before she could win those people over.
Mrs. He and Mrs. Su did have people around them, but she didn't want to ask them for anything.
I'm afraid the two old ladies would find her too shocking.
Besides, Su Rong is the one who makes the final decision on many matters at home, so she doesn't need to look far away.
Su Rong laughed, touched his chin and felt that Su An was really blind. With his brain, he even dared to plot against Su Yao from a distance. Su Yao only killed Nanny Sang and Zhenzhu in Taiyuan, which was really merciful.
He raised his eyebrows and called out to He Jian. When He Jian came over, he said to him, "Among the retainers in our mansion, make a list of those you think are suitable and pick ten of them to serve the Fourth Young Lady. They don't have to come into the mansion to report for duty on weekdays, and the money will be paid from my private account. Listen carefully, they are only for the Fourth Young Lady to serve. From now on, they belong to the Fourth Young Lady."
Su Yao immediately thanked Su Rong with a smile.
Only at this time did Su Rong feel that the little girl in front of him looked a little like a fourteen-year-old girl. Her eyes were curved when she smiled, and her eyes and eyebrows revealed vitality.
He turned his head and coughed. After He Jian left, he asked Su Yaohe about this matter again: "Now the fire has almost been ignited. Tomorrow is the Wang family's birthday banquet. The news that the in-laws' wife will go to the palace to plead for mercy should be spread tomorrow. What are you going to do next?"
Su Yao was much more casual in front of Su Rong.
She didn't know why, perhaps it was because Su Rong had never even seen her in the previous life, but he was still willing to give her the dowry that a prince should give. She always felt that such a person was clear-headed and knew everything.
She looked at the plum blossoms falling in the wind and said softly, "Brother, you have been investigating for so long. The reason why you were attacked last time should be because you already have some information in your hands, right? Then you should know who attacked you and your second uncle. Then, what do you think we can do? If they want to fight, let them fight!"
Su Rong had a subtle smile on his face. He leaned back on the back of his wheelchair. "Your claim that you learned the truth about the prince being framed from the secret letter of the eldest master of the Shen family does not make sense to me. I don't think you know the past, but you can predict the future. From the time you came from Taiyuan to now, Su Ruyi and Su An seemed to be aggressive towards you and forced you into a dead end, but the fact is the opposite. It was you who played them around. In less than a month, you drove Su Ruyi out, making Su An half-disabled in front of the old lady and the third uncle..."
"Su Yao." Su Rong called her, "I won't ask you what secrets you are hiding. Everyone has their own secrets. I just hope that before you do anything, you will think carefully about the consequences."
Su Yao was stunned.
Her previous excuses were forced. A person's inner core has become an old soul, and the vicissitudes of life cannot be concealed. In addition, she knows about the things that will happen in the future, so she needs to find a suitable excuse every time.
But Su Rong saw through her at a glance.
If Su Rong hadn't died in the previous life...
Will her life get any better
She quickly came to her senses and met Su Rong's eyes calmly: "I have sworn to my grandmother that I will not do anything to harm the Su family and you. Now I can still swear in front of you."
"That's not what I meant." Su Rong pointed to his chest and said softly, "What I meant is that you have won a lot, you have been cautious at every step, you have played around with Su Xingxuan and Su An like toys in your hands, but I don't think you are happy. Life is not just about hatred, you have to do more things that you should do at your age."
Su Yao couldn't understand.
She had no girlhood.
Even in her previous life, she had already made an engagement and went to the Changping Marquis' Mansion early to fulfill the obligations of a fiancée who came to bring good luck. If Su Rong hadn't said it, she would have been unable to think of anything else to look forward to in her life except revenge and accompanying Mrs. He.
Song Heng
When she thought of Song Heng, a string in her heart was suddenly plucked, making her feel almost uneasy.
In her previous life, there were many people who had wronged her, but she had let down only a few.
But Song Heng is definitely one of them.
In fact, although she couldn't say that her life was very happy when Song Heng was in the capital, at least because of Song Heng, even Cheng Dingan had to stay away from his white moonlight.
After Song Heng left, the last bit of mercy God had for her was taken away, as if someone was holding an account book behind her, urging her to pay back all the sufferings she owed.
She clenched her fists and looked into Su Rong's eyes. It was hard to believe that he and Su An were brothers who grew up in the same family. Su An was so selfish that, except for Su Ruyi, he probably couldn't even remember the faces of the other sisters. It was too obvious that he favored one over the other.
But Su Rong is different. He has only met her for a few days, but he is able to trust her so much. Whether in terms of vision or character, Su Rong is much better than him.
Su Yao understood to some extent the frustration in Old Mrs. Su's heart.
Su Rong was like this, which shows how outstanding the eldest master at that time, the Prince of Yongding, was.
Such an outstanding son died, how could she bear to let her grandson continue to suffer and hand over the title to the narrow-minded third room? For the future of the Su family, the old lady would never do this.
She responded, her eyes softened, and she said softly, "I understand."
