Early the next morning, Su Qingtan came to the main courtyard. Before she even entered the door, she saw her father, aunt and second mother enjoying breakfast.
When the first lady Su Zhu saw him coming, she coughed lightly and said with a friendly smile: "Tan'er, come and sit down quickly. Today I specially asked the kitchen to cook bird's nest porridge."
The second lady was a little confused. Her son usually never came to the main courtyard for breakfast. How did Zhu Yan know that his son would come here today.
Su Qingtan snorted coldly, sat down and said in a deep voice: "Dad, the child is here today..."
"Your aunt has already told you your purpose of coming."
Su Huanli put down the bowl and chopsticks, raised his head with a pair of majestic eyes, and interrupted: "This matter should not be made public. Just ask Erya to come back. I have already punished Zipei and shut it up, so that's it."
Su Qingtan's face was filled with disbelief at her father's conclusion, "Even if the second sister comes back and is accused of cheating, how will she see anyone in the future? She obviously did nothing wrong, so why? "
Seeing that Su Qingtan was getting more serious and Su Huanli was trying to waver, the aunt saw something was wrong and immediately interrupted: "Oh! Tan'er, you can't say that. If your third sister is involved, how will you find someone else in the future? Besides, It has been more than a month since this incident, and the storm has long since subsided. Maybe others have forgotten about it. If it stirs up trouble again, my Su family will make people laugh again. "
Su Zhu poked Su Huanli's sore spot, and the softening in her eyes immediately hardened again, and shouted to Su Qingtan: "There is no need to discuss it anymore! Your aunt is Erya's biological mother, she doesn't mind, so why are you messing around! "
Su Qingtan felt that the anger in his heart was severely blocked. Looking at the friendly smile on his aunt's face, he couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Everyone knows that aunt is the second sister's biological mother, but those who don't know think that the second sister is from the trash." It was picked from the pile!"
The face of the eldest lady changed drastically.
"presumptuous!"
Su Huanli slammed the table, causing the porridge to spill out, and said angrily: "Come here early in the morning to attack the elders. Is this the purpose of reading your book?!"
"Master, he didn't do it on purpose. Isn't it because he was angry because he failed to be recommended?"
The second lady, Su Cuishi, who was watching the show, quickly stood up and whispered softly: "You haven't apologized to your father yet."
When her mother spoke, Su Qingtan took a deep breath, lowered her head and said sincerely, "Dad, I'm sorry. But for the second sister's matter, I hope dad can compensate her."
Su Huanli shook his sleeves heavily. When the Second Madam mentioned the recommendation, his partiality for the Eldest Madam suddenly dropped a lot. He nodded and said, "Until Erya recovers from his illness, I will stay at your place to recuperate."
Turning around, she reminded Su Qingtan, who was still standing, "Why don't you thank your father quickly!"
"Thank you dad!"
Su Qingtan knew that she could only settle for the next best thing, and quickly saluted. Before the eldest lady could object, the matter was settled.
When the second lady Cui heard this, a subtle smile flashed in her eyes. Although the eldest lady Zhu still had a smile on her face, her expression was obviously stiff.
In the past, I respected Mrs. Cui very much and didn't dare to make any mistakes. I didn't expect that she would suddenly attack today.
To her, Erya was like a sharp thorn piercing her heart. If it was not removed, she would not be able to rest at ease! Who told her... She really picked it up by herself.
"That damn girl has caused so much trouble for me!" A hint of viciousness flashed across Zhu's eyes.
…
After Su Qingtan came back, she stood in front of the bedroom, feeling so ashamed that she didn't dare to go in for a while.
"Is it eldest brother?"
A timid and soft voice came from the house. Su Qingtan's heart felt sour. A peaceful smile returned to her face. She opened the door and walked in. She asked loudly: "Second sister, how is your resting place today? Brother brought you bird's nest porridge." .”
When he came in and saw the scene in the house, Su Qingtan was shocked when he saw Su Li struggling to get out of bed. He quickly put down the food box and rushed to the bed to support Su Li, "What are you doing? Lie down quickly!"
"I'm going to chop wood and fetch water." Su Li blinked, confusion flashing in her eyes, "If I don't chop wood, Grandma Zheng will beat me."
Su Qingtan's eyebrows twitched violently, and she whispered softly: "There is no need to chop wood or fetch water here. The only thing you have to do is to lie down and get healthy as soon as possible."
"oh."
Su Li tilted her head, her dark eyes flashed brightly, and she huddled into the warm bed.
Su Qingtan couldn't help but laugh, touched Su Li's smooth forehead, and asked: "Second sister, you were bullied, why didn't you tell your elder brother?"
"Because Aunt Zheng won't let me talk."
Su Li seemed to have thought of something, a look of fear appeared on her face again, and she said no more.
Su Qingtan couldn't help but sigh, and thought to herself: "Silly girl, you are so weak-tempered, how can I feel relieved when I go to the county government?"
He could tell that his aunt didn't like Erya very much. His father was busy with work, and his aunt had the final say in everything at home. After he left, the second sister would definitely be beaten and bullied again.
For some reason, Su Qingtan suddenly thought of Dr. Qi from Baicao Hall. Did he really want to send his second sister to Baicao Hall as he said? But how to implement this matter so that dad can let go
Su Qingtan shook her head slightly with a headache. There were still several months before the recommendation period, so we could only discuss this matter in the long term. Maybe her mother would be able to find a solution.
