Su Yan left, and the old lady sent someone to inquire about the news. When she learned that Da Furen hadn't prepared clothes and jewelry for Su Yan, the old madam had already disliked Da Furen's behavior in her heart, and also heard that when Su Yan came to pay her respects today, she was wearing the most decent clothes. After wearing a piece of clothing, the old lady became even more dissatisfied with the eldest lady.
The old lady's complexion was not good: "Look! She is a woman in her forties! She is not as sensible as a little girl! She can't even give up a few pieces of material! If this person spreads the word, I don't know what to say Our family treats concubines poorly!"
The eldest maid, Cai Xia, quickly comforted her: "Don't be angry, the eldest lady may be too busy, so she forgot about this for a while."
"Too busy? Busy enough to go to Prince Jing's Mansion to get mixed up in those messy things?"
Before Cai Xia could reply, a woman came in and told the eldest lady to return home.
At about noon, Su Yan heard Liu Xiang say that the old lady had been scolded by the old lady for some reason, and the old lady was dissatisfied with a few words, and the angry old lady punished the old lady to kneel in front of the servants. half an hour.
When Liu Xiang said this, He Xiang glanced at Su Yan several times.
"Madam was fined?" Su Yan pretended to be surprised and stood up from the embroidered pier, changed her clothes and went to the courtyard of Madam anxiously. Liu Xiang hurriedly followed and grabbed a handful of lotus incense before leaving. : "What are you dawdling about? Hurry up and follow the girl."
"Go with the girl, I'll stay and clean up the house." After He Xiang finished speaking, she got into the inner room. It's a joke, the good girl she served offended the eldest lady, she will definitely die if she goes, whoever goes is a fool!
Along the way, Liu Xiang was still worried that Su Yan blamed He Xiang for being lazy, but she didn't see any dissatisfaction on Su Yan's face after watching for a long time, so she couldn't help muttering a few words in her heart.
Standing at the door of Da Furen's courtyard, Su Yan heard the sound of porcelain being thrown to the ground from the room.
The woman guarding the door saw Su Yan and greeted her with a smile: "Madam is taking a rest, Fifth Miss, come back later." As soon as the woman's voice fell, there was a curse from the eldest lady in the room, which could be heard faintly. Qing bastard word.
The smile on the mother-in-law's face remained the same, as if she hadn't heard the movement inside.
Su Yan pursed her lips, with a look of disappointment on her face, she glanced at the courtyard again and said: "In this case, I will wait for Madam to wake up before coming back." Anyone who saw that look would feel pitiful.
"Fifth Miss, walk slowly." The old lady knelt.
On the way back, Su Yan happened to meet Cai Xia who came to bring him some fabrics. Seeing that Su Yan pursed her lips and was not very interested, Cai Xia also looked at the road behind Su Yan, and she understood a little bit.
After the cloth was delivered, Su Yan stayed for Caixia to drink a cup of tea before sending Caixia out of the yard in person.
In the Luoying Courtyard where the eldest lady lives, Haitang just opened the door and saw the mess on the ground. The eldest lady sat on the willow chair with an angry expression on her face. When she saw Haitang enter the room, her expression became more serious: "Is everything arranged?"
Haitang subconsciously lowered her voice: "The servants selected eight pieces of materials in the storeroom, and picked out some jewelry to send to Fifth Miss. The tailor and embroiderer were also dispatched."
"I heard that the old lady rewarded that bastard with a lot of things? Just like her shameless aunt! She knows nothing but flattery!" Thinking of the old lady slapping herself in the face in public, the lady felt her face was hot Feeling uncomfortable, thinking about the conditions promised to go out in Prince Jing's Mansion just now, the chest becomes more and more panicked, and Su Yan is even more disliked.
"It's nothing." Haitang tried her best to comfort the eldest lady: "All the good things in the old lady's hands are reserved for the eldest girl. Even if the fifth lady got some, the eldest lady will pick the rest."
Sure enough, after hearing Haitang's words, the eldest lady's complexion improved a lot: "My sister Rong is naturally the best."
Haitang breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to compliment: "Naturally, only the madam has such a good fortune. You don't know that the second and third wives are envious of having a daughter like a big girl."
"You're the only one with a sweet mouth." The eldest lady stretched out her hand and tapped Haitang's forehead, thinking of her eldest daughter, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
After going out, Haitang was immediately stopped by Nanny Yan: "How is Madam?"
Haitang smiled and said: "Okay, mother, you wait on Madam first, I'll go eat something."
That night.
Su Yan lay on the bed tossing and turning, as long as she opened her eyes, she could see the beam through the moonlight, and what happened in her previous life became more and more clear in her mind.
She didn't want to marry and live as a widow in Prince Jing's mansion, and she hated the complicated people in Uncle An Jing's mansion, so she decided to go all out and find a chance to deliberately fall into the water under the watchful eyes of everyone. When I went ashore, my clothes were disheveled, and most of my shoulders were exposed. There were many men present at that time, under the watchful eyes of everyone, she successfully ruined her boudoir reputation, and indeed made Princess Jing withdraw her engagement.
Su Yan originally thought that she was useless and angered Uncle An Jing, so she would be sent back to her adoptive parents. She was ready to stay at home to serve her parents for the rest of her life.
But Su Yan never expected that her so-called father would give her to such an inhuman pickle in order to curry favor with the dignitaries! For two months, she had been bullied so badly that she didn't have a good place in her body. Later, her adoptive parents came to the capital to file a complaint, but they were beaten to death by that beast! That beast just sent someone to watch her at twelve o'clock, she even hoped to die!
If it wasn't for the old lady's excuse to celebrate her birthday later, she insisted on taking her back once, she might not be able to get rid of it so early.
Just when Su Yan was immersed in memories, there was a rustle outside the window, and then two cuckoo calls.
Su Yan was startled when she heard the sound, she immediately turned over and took out a porcelain vase from under the pillow, got out of bed and put it under the nose of the vigilant Hexiang, shaking it, then tiptoed over to open the window.
Seeing the girl standing outside the window making faces at herself, Su Yan felt helpless on her brows: "Why are you here? Are you not afraid of being caught?"
Zhong Ning smiled and leaned on the window frame and said, "Aren't I worried about you being alone? Sister, don't worry, I've already settled my uncle and aunt, and I'm sure no one will be able to find them."
Zhong Ning smiled brightly, two dimples appeared on her cheeks, and the concern in her mouth dispelled the haze in Su Yan's heart.
"Come in and talk, it's cold outside." The corners of Su Yan's lips curled up in a beautiful arc, and she took a few steps back.
Zhong Ning shook her head: "I feel relieved when I see Senior Sister, I still have something to do, see you in a few days."
"Well, be careful yourself. I will send someone to find you if I have something to do. You don't have to worry about me too much."
After sending Zhong Ning away, Su Yan was just lying on the bed when she heard the window being knocked again.
"This girl will make people toss in a day." Su Yan muttered, climbed out of bed and opened the window, before the window was fully opened, a blood-stained sword suddenly lay across Su Yan's neck, bringing a deep chill .
