When she returned home, she saw that the home, which was once considered lively, was now only the sound of the wind blowing the leaves shaking. Su Jinyi sat in the room dejectedly, feeling tired even when she breathed.
He is so tired. After fighting for so many years, he is really so tired.
Someone pushed the door and came in. He was startled, but looked up and found that it was Su Jiang's.
He stood up and stood opposite Su Jiangshi, not knowing what to say. He was too sorry and too regretful, and he had no way to speak.
Su Jiang came over, sat down next to him, looked at him with a very peaceful look, and asked, "Do you still want to go back to the past?"
"past?"
"Will we start over when there was no Yuan Shishi? You, me, our three children."
"Can I go back?" He lowered his head, buried his head in applause, and said in pain.
Su Jiang came over and hugged him gently: "Hey, Jinyi, I have been ruined by you in my life."
"I……"
"Jin Yi, Rou Young is dead, Li Young is dead, and Xue Ying is almost dead, why don't you die?"
"I……"
Su Jiang's voice suddenly became a little hideous. Su Jinyi felt something cold on her neck, and the cold thing pierced through his neck inch sharply. He screamed - Wake up
It's right.
It turned out to be a dream, he fell asleep on the table.
But this dream was too real. Even when he woke up, he was still worried. Zi Chen, Su Rouying and Su Liying of the General Administration were lingering around him, shouting why they were all dead and he would not die.
He stood up, his face pale, and he didn't dare to stay in the house. He found the property deed in the house, packed up some clothes and pants, and hurried out.
He never dared to live in this home again. No matter whether it was really haunted or not, to him, that home was a "haunted house", lifeless and unpopular, which made him panic, worried, afraid, and even
There is a kind of despair and depression that cannot be breathed.
He found an inn and asked the shopkeeper to find out who wanted to buy a luxury house. He would definitely pay back Xu Xiuyi's money. He was arrogant since childhood, which was the only little dignity he had left.
＊
Su Jinyi stayed in the inn. This was what the fourth sister told her. She asked her why she could talk to her. It was just because the haunted maid and the old lady in her house ran around, so she posted a list of people.
My son came to her house by himself, and Xu Xiuyi also liked her very much, so she stayed it and kept it by her side.
As for Su Yalan, two new maids also sent them to Su Yalan. Su Yalan is not in good health recently. Xu Xiuyi went to see her once. Su Yalan was in a bad mood, but she was still a little energetic. She also went to the Peony Embroidery House with Xu Xiuyi.
Walked around.
Maybe the embroidery shop is too busy and Su Yalan is too concerned about the embroidery shop, so she can't stand it.
Su Yalan's body care, Su Jinyuan and Su Jinyu went to pray for the old lady of the Su family again. It will take one month to leave. Now Xu Xiuyi is running around, not only to worry about Baoning Hall, but also to take care of the business of the Peony Embroidery House.
There is also the Su family bank. Although she handed it over to Wang Yun, she also had to go over and take a look.
She was seriously aware that she needed more staff.
After the fourth sister recruited this group of slaves, she intended to run a girls' school first, but this is not allowed in this society, or even ridiculed. Here, the envelope of a woman without talent is virtue, and it is only for her to take care of her husband and children for a lifetime.
It is the duty that a woman should do.
Xu Xiuyi had an idea, but she deliberately cultivated the fourth sister and Yin Yu and began to teach them to read the account books.
Yin Yu has a little ink and has followed Xu Xiuyi for a long time. She has learned very quickly. The fourth sister has a shortcoming, but she is very modest and willing to learn.
Seeing that half of the month had passed, and a few autumn rains fell, the day began to become cold, Xu Xiuyi's belly also grew, Su Jinyuan's return date was right in front of him, and the Su family had never had any trouble again.
Everything seemed to have returned to the starting point, but the old lady of the Su family never dared to go home, so she set up camp in the nunnery.
The temple will not drive people away, and the Su family is paying a lot of money for incense. The old lady of the Su family is just a money tree. Xu Xiuyi and Su Yalan went to see the old lady of the Su family. The old lady meant that she would not go home, and she would be there for the rest of her life.
Su Yalan persuaded the ancient Buddha in the nunnery for a while, but Xu Xiuyi didn't say anything.
She didn't care where the old lady of the Su family was. She didn't have much feelings at first. Besides, she had a few rifts, but she would rather live alone in the entire Su family until the day when she and An Cheng Shao ended their bet.
I also left for others and An Cheng.
But less than two months have passed, and she suddenly felt that waiting was really a long process.
On the afternoon of that day, it rained again. The lingering rain brought the autumn cold. Xu Xiuyi sat at the window, and the fourth sister and Yin Yu were studying the account book. The two of them communicated with each other and did not disturb her. She
I was so stunning that Yin Yu took the account book and came to ask for advice.
"Grandma, I don't understand here."
Xu Xiuyi took a look and explained carefully. Seeing that Yin Yu didn't understand and explained again, Yin Yu finally nodded in an enlightenment: "So that's the case. Grandma, are you hungry? I'll get you some food.
”
"No, I'm not hungry, you can continue to see."
Yin Yu nodded, left and came back, and said with a smile: "The third master wrote that the carriage arrived at home in the evening. Grandma should wear that new clothes? I did not wear them last autumn. Grandma, you like it very much. I will give it to me.
You go find it."
Xu Xiuyi shook her head again: "No."
Seeing her indifferent appearance, she seemed to have not much joy in her third master's return. Yinyu just couldn't understand her, but her grandmother's thoughts have always been different. Perhaps she missed her in peace.
It's flooding.
Yes, Xu Xiuyi's longing was flooded, but not for Su Jinyuan, but for An Chengshou.
Earlier, she learned from Su Jinye that Lu Qing was stabbed. She went to find Young Master An anxiously. Young Master An just told him that he was going back to the outside of the pass, and said nothing else.
Young Master An Cheng was fifteen days ago. For the past fifteen days, Xu Xiuyi has been missing him almost every day, especially when touching his stomach. When Young Master An Cheng’s child lives here, his longing for him is even more common.
.
Now looking at the rain outside the window, she always wondered if it was raining for Young Master An Cheng, when will he come back, and will he suddenly appear at her window one night, with a gentle smile as jade, and shouted to her, "Embroidery."
Son!"
She was so confused that the girl Yinyu, who was a little born, came again.
"Grandma, Miss Qing embroidered a few purses for you. Have you seen it?"
Xu Xiuyi was interrupted several times and simply turned around and said, "I saw it."
"Grandma is going out in the afternoon?"
"I have to go there. I have to send the goods in the Peony Embroidery House and the palace. I have to go and deliver them in person. This is at least the first order and the official transaction in the palace."
"Second auntie, are you going?"
"Don't go."
Su Yalan was kicked out of the palace. From qualification to face, she felt embarrassed to enter the palace. Even the Peony Embroidery House was written in Xu Xiuyi's name to outsiders.
Since Xu Xiuyi also took a commission, she naturally had to care about some things. When she went into the palace, Su Yalan also had some things for her to send Su Yacai two pieces of satin and some silver coins.
In the final analysis, Su Yacai was once very glorious. It was all because of Su Yalan's implication that he was exiled from the concubine to the noble master. If it weren't for the queen protecting her, she wouldn't have been in the cold palace or a department to be a hard worker.
Su Yalan undoubtedly felt guilty about Su Yacai, so she had to deliver goods to the palace this time. She sent 1,000 taels of silver early, and asked Xu Xiuyi to bring it into the palace to Su Yacai, saying that Su Yacai was asking him to handle some things up and down.
.
Su Yacai had something to give, and Lu Yuer also joined in the fun. Although she had never met Su Yacai's sister-in-law, she was also worried. She asked Xu Xiuyi to bring two agate bracelets and a string of pearl necklaces, and she was generous in her actions.
No one can give gifts. Xu Xiuyi didn't want to give them, and he also prepared some common things such as gold, silver and jewelry. This time, it was better to say that he went to see this noble master than to deliver goods in the palace. He just didn't know how to meet him.
If you don’t see the above, everything will be useless if you can’t see it.
The appointment was made to enter the palace at three o'clock in the Shen Shi. This batch of silk embroidery was sent directly to Jingshifang, and Jingshifang was assigned to the masters of each palace.
When the time came, the carriage and horses transported arrived at the gate of the Su Mansion. Xu Xiuyi got on the car and brought Yinyu. The fourth sister had never seen the world in the palace, so Xu Xiuyi dared not bring it.
The carriage and horses were swaying just after Shen and You, and they arrived outside the palace gate. The father-in-law, who was in the court room, was waiting outside early and was quite polite when he saw Xu Xiuyi.
"Grandma Su San has delivered it in person, come and go here."
With the leading father-in-law entering through Rihua Gate, the car stopped directly at the door of Jingshi Room. The eunuch of Jingshi Room was there, and when he saw Xu Xiuyi's face was also polite.
"Grandma Su San is here in person. Hurry up and you can unload the goods. Be careful not to let the rain wet. You, go make tea."
"Eunuch Yang, I haven't seen you for many years."
When Xu Xiuyi first entered the palace, Eunuch Yang was still serving in front of the palace, but he was just a little eunuch.
"Grandma San has a good memory and still remembers the slave."
"Why don't you remember that Eunuch Yang didn't prepare any gifts? This is a little bit of intention. Eunuch Yang took them to have tea."
When walking around the palace, you will inevitably need this trick. Eunuch Yang is used to it. He was polite and accepted it.
Seeing that there were few people around him, Xu Xiuyi lowered his voice slightly: "Those who invited you to have tea just now, you accepted these things with a smile. I'll ask you to help me."
Xu Xiuyi took out a larger wallet, and Eunuch Yang hurriedly said, "Grandma Third, you are so kind. You can tell me if you have anything to say."
"I dare not, I just want to meet my noble master. Eunuch Yang will take a look. I will be in trouble."
Eunuch Yang hurriedly said, "Grandma, look at what you said, why is it illegal? I'll ask someone to inform you, you're here to wait."
You can still see the above, and the people below are happy to help. Xu Xiuyi actually understood in her heart that it seemed that Su Yacai lived a pretty good life in the palace.
Generally, the empress who was exiled like this, although she was granted a noble person, she was generally inferior to a beauty. The beauty still had a chance to be favored, had a chance to be promoted, and had a chance to become a concubine. Moreover, the opportunity was not too small, but she was exiled.
The nobleman is different. The eight words "deprived of his title and demoted him to a nobleman" are actually comparable to "inciting to the cold palace".
So Xu Xiuyi had calculated the money to enter the palace and had to spend some money to clear it up. Only those in Jingshifang would be willing to help her run. I didn't expect that the people in Jingshifang were so enthusiastic. Judging from this attitude, it was not her.
The third grandmother of the Su family has this charm, and it is not because she is jealous of the money. It is mainly because Su Yacai's status in the palace is quite good.
A concubine who was deprived of her title and was demoted is OK, but Xu Xiuyi could make a comeback.
Just guessing alone, Eunuch Yang had already revealed the answer to her, and his face turned a little flattering: "Three Grandma, I'll give you this money. Go back and say a few good words to my servant in front of our noble master.
A few days ago, I was unhappy when I was owed a word. The noble master ignored me. I would like to say a few good words to me. I would like to thank you."
Eunuch Yang doesn't need to be told directly, but it's clear.
Yes, Su Yacai is favored again, and she is favored by the right time, probably no less than the momentum she had when she first entered the palace.
When Su Yacai came, it was no longer the same day when she saw Su Yacai who was lonely and crying alone at the lotus appreciation conference.
She was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe and looked very good. When she saw Xu Xiuyi, she came up and pulled Xu Xiuyi's hand, and smiled and said, "Xuyi, I know you are coming today. I originally wanted to invite you to sit in my palace, but I didn't
I thought of the people from Jingshifang coming to me and saying that you have arrived. It’s raining that you are pregnant with a child and I can’t let you come over, so I’m here.”
Although she exuded a smug air on her body, she was still very gentle to Xu Xiuyi and had no airs at all.
Xu Xiuyi greeted her for blessings, but she stopped her and used a color to the people around her. People retreated one after another. She looked at Xu Xiuyi and asked, "Is Yalan okay? She opened this peony embroidery shop.
Yes?"
"How did the little master know?"
"My sister has been obsessed with these since she was a child, and she admires Jin Niang who runs the embroidery shop. I guess you won't run the embroidery shop for no reason. It should be her. How about her?"
Su Yalan is actually very bad. Her illness has been repeated and she has not improved. Su Jinye prescribed a lot of medicines, but she still has not improved after taking it. She doesn't know what kind of disease she has, she can't eat or sleep, and she is very haggard.
It took a few days to see her upset. In the morning, her maid came and said she was not very comfortable and couldn't get up.
However, if you report good news but not bad news, Su Yacai has no time to take care of herself in the palace. Xu Xiuyi then responded: "It's okay, how can you do it?"
Su Yacai's face was flushed, but after all, she had been shy about being favored and embarrassed when she was a girl. After a great disaster, she seems to have looked at favoritism very lightly, and there was a slight smile in her eyes: "I'm fine."
, The Emperor is going to restore my title."
"Really?" I guessed that Su Yacai was favored recently, but I didn't expect to be favored to the point of restoring her throne. It seems that the emperor still likes Su Yacai very much, and it seems that the emperor has no problem with it.
Yes, he has thirty or fifty imperial doctors to serve him.
"Haha, well, really, don't talk to your family first. When things really come true, the family will naturally know."
"Well, I know, my second sister and fourth sister asked me to send you something."
Xu Xiuyi took out the things he prepared, and Su Yacai smiled and said, "Look at you, what else do you want to give to your family? Is it okay for my fourth brother and fourth brother?"
Although the Su family's haunted incident is known to everyone in the city, the heavy palace walls may not have reached Su Yacai's ears. Xu Xiuyi did not say that Su Jinyu and Su Jinyuan went out, but said in a general way: "It's okay."
"It's okay, how many months have you been in your belly?"
Xu Xiuyi said: "I can't calculate my life myself, but my sister-in-law calculated it for me and said it was more than three months."
"Haha, it's all revealed. Looking back, my eldest nephew was born, I want to go home and see my eldest nephew."
Xu Xiuyi felt an inexplicable sense of guilt, but smiled: "Thank you, the little master, I will come to the palace once a while later. If the little master wants something strange outside the palace,
I'll bring it in to the little master."
Su Yacai smiled gently and shook her head: "There is nothing in the palace, so you don't need to bring me anything. I came here in a hurry and didn't take anything. You will be in the house next time you come. I got two jade Ruyi, you can take it.
I will share the same relationship with Lu Yuer. If you marry into my Su family, I, the eldest sister, don’t give me any gifts to meet.”
Xu Xiuyi was about to thank him, but a maid came in outside, and her hair was covered with rain and mist. Her tone was a little anxious and happy: "My little master, the emperor has ordered her to have dinner with her. Master, please go there quickly."
The expression on Su Yacai's face was still faint, and she said to Xu Xiuyi: "I'll leave first. If you have time to send something in, just go to my place to sit."
"The little master walks slowly."
"Yeah, be careful when you go back."
"Thank you, my lord."
As soon as Su Yacai left, Eunuch Yang came in and looked at Xu Xiuyi with a bash: "Did the third grandma tell her to the slave?"
"I didn't have time to say a few words. The little master asked about the family and asked someone about it, and then he asked the little master to leave."
Eunuch Yang was quite disappointed, but he quickly said: "I deserve it. The little master should save the slave. When will the third grandma enter the palace next time?"
"It's no less than ten days and half a month."
"The third grandma must say a few good things to the slave next time she enters the palace."
"How did Eunuch Yang offend our little master?"
Eunuch Yang's face was a little embarrassed and he was hesitant and unwilling to say it. Xu Xiuyi didn't ask much. In fact, he knew that Xu Xiuyi knew that Su Yacai was not favored before, but Eunuch Yang had no reason to rely on his fourth-rank eunuch.
He took Su Yacai, a demoted concubine, and said something he shouldn't have said. As a result, Su Yacai is favored again. Eunuch Yang is afraid that Su Yacai will hold a grudge with him.
Xu Xiuyi looked at Su Yacai's eyes and always felt inexplicably quiet, so quiet that she was not afraid of favor and disgrace. Her expression was undoubtedly flying, but her posture was very calm, always exuding a calm atmosphere of looking down on the world. This temperament was incompatible with the palace.
The things in the palace were never clearly explained by the common people. She could understand why her father was anxious to marry her to Su Jinyuan to avoid her fate of marrying into the palace.
When I returned, the carriage drove towards the outside of the palace. The imperial city's palaces flashed one by one before my eyes, just like golden silk birdcages, brilliant but depressing.
If Xu Xiuyi had lived in this place before, she might be able to stay there. If she was asked to live there, she would not die and would be suffocating to death.
When she got home, the fourth sister was waiting at the door. She didn't know how long she had been waiting, but she saw that her hair was wet.
Xu Xiuyi got off the car and her heart was raised.
The fourth sister of Haoduan won’t wait for her here. Maybe something happened, but she just didn’t know whether it was a good or a bad thing.
"Why aren't you waiting here in the house?"
"Grandma, the fourth grandma is going to beat Aunt Lian to death."
Xu Xiuyi felt that she was so angry when she heard this. Will Lu Yuer die if she caused little trouble for her?
Now that the old lady of the Su family is not here, Su Jinyuan and Su Jinyu are not here, she is in charge of everything in this family. Su Yalan will not cause any trouble, but her health is not easy to worry about.
But this four-bedroom yard will be staged every now and then.
"So what?"
"When dinner was spent, Brother Hui cried endlessly. Grandma Fourth was upset and beat Brother Hui. Aunt Lian tried her best to go up and fight with Grandma Fourth."
"Where did she beat Brother Hui?"
"I don't know. Grandma fourth said that she flicked her mouth with her finger."
"I don't think so." Yin Yu followed Xu Xiuyi to the fourth yard and continued, "Aunt Lian's personality is like a quail. She is even more careful when the Fourth Master is not there. She usually gives in to the Fourth Grandma everywhere.
If it’s not that he is hit hard, Aunt Lian will pounce on her and fight to the death. She clearly knows that she can’t beat the fourth grandmother.”
"Shut up and say a few less words."
If this is heard by Lu Yuer, I am afraid that Lu Yuer will have an objection to Yin Yu. With Lu Yuer's power, if he uses means to deal with Yin Yu, Yin Yu will not be his opponent.
It is better to have less things than more. If Su Jinyu was not here, she would not care about such things, which would upset Su Jinyu. This was originally the purpose of her designing Lu Yuer to Su Jinyu.
But now she can't watch someone die.
Lu Yuer's arrogance can be achieved, and she will not be disliked by Tai Lian for a long time.
It is possible that she deliberately angered Tai Lian to provoke Tai Lian to take action first, and then naturally used an excuse to defend herself or something to beat Tai Lian to death.
After stepping up, Lu Yuer made her hate her more and more.
