He Ye ran to Su Yao's courtyard in a daze to deliver a message. Su Yao had just changed her clothes and was about to go out. She paused while sorting her purse and looked at He Ye: "Choosing patterns for the third wife?"
How could Mrs. Su San be interested in the appearance of her candidate? This excuse was too lame.
Yancao was not a person without sense of propriety. She had seen Third Madam's attitude towards them and her plans over the past few days. Naturally, she would not get close to them, let alone delay accompanying her out just to choose a style.
She squinted her eyes and saw Mother Shen coming in with a teapot, so she said softly, "Mom, it's just right. I'm going out now. I don't know what happened to Yan Cao and she's been delayed. Please go to the Third Madam's yard and help me check. If there's nothing wrong, bring her back early."
Madam Su San would not go against a maid. There is still the old lady in the mansion now, and Su An had just made a mistake and was released. Madam Su San would not make trouble for no reason.
It is more likely that Yancao encountered something else.
She paused, and then asked Mother Shen: "Please ask Madam Su to go with you."
Madam Su was a favorite of Old Madam Su. When she went with Madam Shen, even Madam Su San had to give her some face.
Mother Shen sighed and agreed, and hurriedly urged Su Yao to hurry up so as not to delay going out. This was Su Yao's first time going out, and the family he was going to was He Er Niang's maiden family, the Wang family, which was also a famous and wealthy family. If Su Yao performed well, he would always be looked up to in the eyes of these noble ladies in the capital.
Su Yao was pushed into the carriage, but he was still a little worried.
Mrs. He saw that she was a little absent-minded, so she raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?"
Not knowing whether he was really wronged, Su Yao did not mention it to Mrs. He. He just shook his head, sat down with Mrs. He again, and whispered to her a few things to pay attention to.
She had already guessed who would come to see Mrs. He.
There are many powerful people in the Pang family, but no one can be trusted and respected by the Pang family like Mr. Wei in the previous life. For such an important matter, it is not convenient for the master of the Pang family to come forward, so the one who came to talk to Mrs. He must be the world-famous Mr. Wei.
Mrs. He was even more shocked. She looked at her strangely, thinking that she knew too much. "Did you also read all this from your uncle's secret letter?"
"That's not the case." Hearing Mrs. He's teasing, Su Yao blinked slyly: "This is my clever analysis after listening to my eldest brother's account of the Pang family's affairs."
This is what a girl of this age should be like. Mrs. He laughed and felt a little emotional. She touched Su Yao's head and said, "Yes, our Yaoyao is really smart."
The two laughed for a while and talked about the Pang family. Su Yao discussed it carefully with Mrs. He, guessing how Mr. Wei would approach the matter and what conditions he would propose. When they were almost done, Li Rui's voice happened to come from outside: "Madam, Fourth Miss, we are here."
Mrs. He is a formal relative of the Wang family. She hasn't come for many years. The Wang family opened the middle gate. The carriage drove in from the main gate and went straight to the hanging flower gate. Several young ladies of the Wang family were already waiting. When they saw Mrs. He coming down, they hurried up to greet her.
Mrs. He nodded with a smile. The fourth wife of the Wang family had already spotted Su Yao standing next to her and immediately laughed, "Is this Yaoyao? I've heard from my aunt a long time ago that her niece is very pretty, even prettier than Xian'er. I didn't believe that there is such a person in the world, but now that I've seen her with my own eyes, I believe it. No wonder my wife likes her so much."
She smiled and pulled Su Yao's hand. After looking at him for a while, she naturally took off an emerald green bracelet from her wrist and put it on Su Yao herself: "This is the first time we meet, and I haven't prepared anything. Take this and play with it."
The bracelet was emerald green all over, emitting a warm light and sparkling even under the sun. One could tell at a glance that it was of excellent quality and a rare treasure. Su Yao glanced at Mrs. He.
Mrs. He said, "It's too expensive."
"What's this?" Mrs. Wang held Su Yao's hand tightly and said, "It's just a little gift from me as an elder..."
Mrs. Wang also looked at Su Yao and nodded, and whispered to Mrs. He, "She is indeed very good-looking. How could you bear to hide her for so long and not send her back? Aren't you afraid that her mother will worry about her?"
As he spoke, he took off a golden hairpin from his head and put it in Su Yao's hair: "This is given by me. A gift from an elder cannot be refused. Just wear it with confidence."
He invited Mrs. He to come in, and said to her with a smile: "We have been waiting for you for a long time. We haven't seen you for many years and we really miss you. Now that you are here, you must stay at home for a few more days..."
As he was speaking, a maid came running over and, without caring about the presence of guests, walked up to Mrs. Wang and whispered a few words in her ear.
Mrs. Wang was originally talking to Mrs. He, but she stopped after hearing her words. There was helplessness and embarrassment in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she couldn't help frowning.
The fourth wife saw something was wrong and called the second sister-in-law softly and gave her a wink.
Mrs. Wang shook her head, a layer of frost on her face, and she smiled helplessly and said to Mrs. He, "I still have some things to deal with. It's really rude that I can't personally serve you in..."
Mrs. He could tell that she was in trouble, so she smiled and said, "We are all family, there is no need to be polite. It will be the same if I go in alone."
Before Second Madam Wang could respond, another maid came running over, this time even more anxious: "Second Madam, Fourth Madam, we can't find Mr. Wei!"
What
Mrs. Wang II was a little dismayed for a moment. She glanced at Mrs. He beside her and saw that Mrs. He was also looking at her suddenly. She forced a smile and asked Mrs. Wang IV to take Mrs. He in first.
She turned around and asked in a low voice, "Have you looked for everything? How come Sixth Young Master Song is missing?"
Su Yao stopped walking.
Song six.
She turned around and subconsciously looked around, but there were only a few scattered wintersweets around, and no familiar faces in her memory.
Song Heng, he also came to the Wang family
Yes, Song Heng is nominally the fifth wife’s younger brother, so it is normal for him to come to the Wang family.
Her hands were shaking slightly.
Since her rebirth, she felt that she was not afraid of anything, but now when she heard Song Heng's name, she felt uneasy, as if someone had hit her heart hard with a hammer.
