In the Xiwu courtyard, Su Yan was holding a letter and smiling brightly, Zhong Ning immediately leaned forward: "What did my mother say in the letter to you? Make you happy like this?"
Su Yan handed the letter to Zhong Ning: "Master said that she used some tricks to set King Qin's backyard on fire. King Qin probably won't go to Beijing for a year or so when he goes back to deal with the incident this time. I have a lot more time." .”
Zhong Ning was sincerely happy for Su Yan: "That's great, this way you can take your time."
While talking, Yun Zhui's voice greeted Su Jian loudly from outside, Su Yan got up to greet Su Jian when she heard it, but just as she walked to the door, Su Jian hurried in, and the two happened to meet each other, Well suspended together.
Su Jian is a few months older than Su Yan, but Su Yan is slightly taller than Su Jian.
Su Jian walked in a hurry, the broken hair on her forehead was wet with sweat, her almond eyes were slightly red at the moment, and her eyelashes were also wet, it looked like she had just cried.
Obviously when the two separated just now, they were still talking and laughing, why did Su Jian start crying after such a short time? Just now Su Jian went back to Aunt Wang's place, the maid did not dare to do anything to Su Jian, Su Jian must have had some unpleasantness with Aunt Wang.
Although she was clear in her heart, Su Yan was still surprised: "What's wrong with the third sister? Who bullied my sister?"
Thinking of this, Su Jian felt a sense of grievance in her heart, and suddenly saw Zhong Ning in the room, Su Jian put away the words that had reached her lips, and a decent smile appeared on her face immediately: "Miss Zhong is also here."
Zhong Ning knew that Su Jian had something to say to Su Yan, so she said to Su Jian: "You two talk first, I'll go and see if the honey water in the small kitchen is ready? I'll bring it for you when it's ready. There are mung beans in it, which is the best way to cool off the heat.”
Su Jian smiled slightly at Zhong Ning, held Su Yan's hand after she went out, and said anxiously, "Fifth Sister, there is something you need to help me with."
Su Yan pulled Su Jian to sit down puzzled, "If there's anything wrong, Third Sister, it's okay to say, I will naturally help if I can."
Su Jian bit her lip, she was still a little hesitant when she spoke, but when she thought of her cousin Zhu, Su Jian went all out: "I overheard my aunt and nanny at night saying that they would take advantage of grandma's birthday Get out about my mother's disappearance, and then she can be the mistress. But I don't want to, so I beg my fifth sister to help me, and don't let my aunt succeed!"
Su Jian's words stirred up waves in Su Yan's heart.
Aunt Wang has been very quiet since the matter of the eldest lady, and no means are used. Su Yan always thought that Aunt Wang would wait for this matter to completely subside before planning to take the position of mistress, but she did not expect that she would be the mistress. Such a plan
But it's also my fault that she has been putting her mind on the outside all this time, and didn't consider these things. If Su Jian hadn't told her this time, she might have stumbled this time.
But... Why did Su Jian tell herself about this
According to Su Yan's understanding of Su Jian, although her concubine sister is not extremely smart, she is not a fool either.
Su Yan frowned slightly, and instead of going around in circles with Su Jian, she directly asked the doubts in her heart: "Why does the third sister think so? After Aunt Wang succeeds, it will only be good for the elder sister. Why do you want to stop it? The third sister doesn't want to Do you want the title of a daughter-in-law?"
While speaking, Su Yan's eyes were fixed on Su Jian, not missing any expression on her face.
Su Jian shook her head in embarrassment. She wanted to tell a lie to prevaricate Su Yan, but when she raised her head, she met Su Yan's beautiful eyes. Although those eyes were very gentle and charming, the light inside was clear. , very much like the fox she had seen before.
Under such a pair of eyes, Su Jian couldn't utter a single word, so she could only purse her lips and said, "I'll only tell Fifth Sister about this, you must keep it a secret for me."
"I have a childhood sweetheart cousin in my uncle's house. We have played together since we were young, and we have a very close relationship. My cousin is very nice. No matter in appearance or knowledge, he is the best man I have ever met. At this point, Su Jian lowered her head in embarrassment, two blushes appeared on her cheeks, and her voice was involuntarily softer: "Actually, I...I...I have always wanted to marry my cousin."
After Su Jian said this, her face almost turned red.
As a young lady who has been bound by various rules since she was a child, Su Jian thinks that she is a deviant now.
Su Jian was very good-looking when she was born, but now her shy appearance is even more charming. Seeing Su Jian's appearance, Su Yan thought of Chu Yan almost immediately, every time she blushed in front of him, could it be that she also looked like Su Jian
That's... how embarrassing.
Su Jian didn't know what Su Yan was thinking, and her voice suddenly became a little disappointed: "But... But my cousin is a bastard, and my biological mother is not of high background, so my aunt disagrees. She always wants to make me a concubine. Girl, then tell me about a good marriage."
Su Yan understood Su Jian's meaning: "So you want to prevent her from taking the wife's seat, and then break her mind?"
Su Jian nodded: "I know it's not good, but I..."
Su Yan interrupted Su Jian suddenly, and said earnestly: "Silly sister, have you ever thought about it? Even if you are not a daughter-in-law, there are many marriages that can be said. If Aunt Wang doesn't want you to marry that cousin, it's a breeze. How could you compromise because of this one thing?"
"I didn't expect so much." Su Jian was dumbfounded all of a sudden, and said, "I just thought that if I were a concubine, I would be able to match my cousin."
Looking at Su Jian, Su Yan suddenly remembered what Zhong Ning once said to herself: A woman in love has only a mind for decoration.
Su Jian looked at Su Yan in a panic: "Fifth Sister, what should I do?"
"Third Sister, don't worry, I will help you find a way." Su Yan's voice was soft and soft, but it just made Su Jian believe that she would not lie to herself.
Su Jian's heart gradually settled down, and after talking to Su Yan, Aunt Wang sent someone to look for Su Jian.
Su Jian got up reluctantly, and before leaving, she did not forget to ask: "Fifth sister must not forget."
"Third Sister, don't worry." Su Yan got up to send Su Jian off, watching Su Jian leave, and then looking at the rose on the window sill, meditating silently.
Su Yan remembered that in her previous life, Su Jian's last marriage was the eldest grandson of Wangge's hometown. I heard that the two of them did not live well. It was only the second month that Su Jian entered the house, and the prince took his cousin as his concubine. Su Jianben was a high-married woman with a soft temper, so naturally she didn't dare to speak too much, and her life was quite aggrieved.
If Su Jian's cousin is a good one, it would be good to make a match. Doing some good deeds will not waste her life again.
Thinking of this, Su Yan immediately called Caixia, and asked her to find a way to inquire about the character of the prince of the Wang family.
Thinking about Aunt Wang's matter again, Su Yan only felt a headache.
She doesn't want to confront Aunt Wang now, and she will take action to prevent Aunt Wang from tearing her face. She must let Aunt Wang give up this idea now.
Aunt Wang is not the eldest lady, but it is not so easy to fool.
After thinking for a long time, Su Yan asked Liu Xiang to pack a few boxes of snacks, got up and went to Aunt Wang's place.
