"What's going on?" Mrs. Cao was surprised, "Leng Yufan? Is he the prince of the Marquis of Wuchang?"
"Exactly! That Leng Yufan said that he would send someone to the house to propose marriage in a few days. Mother, my daughter does not want to marry him at all! He is a well-known playboy! He is not good at literature and martial arts, but he is not good at it.
You are so self-righteous! Mother, you must think of a way this time! My daughter will not marry him no matter what!"
Mrs. Cao thought for a while, then said with a serious face: "Lian'er, tell mother the truth. Is there any secret between you and him?"
Su Lian blushed after hearing this, "Mother, that Leng Yufan, he, he has been frivolous towards his daughter!"
"What? Then, did he, that is, you, did you?" Ms. Cao was so anxious that she didn't know how to ask.
Su Lian shook her head and said with a blush, "Don't worry, mother, your daughter is still perfect!"
"That's good! That's good!"
Before Ms. Cao could completely let go, she heard Su Lian say again: "But, he has a personal belonging of his daughter in his hand, and he threatened her that if her daughter didn't agree, he would hang that thing on her.
At the gate of the city, how will my daughter see anyone then? Isn’t it worse than death?"
Ms. Cao bravely asked, "What on earth is it? Is it your personal belongings?"
Su Lian nodded, "What should I do, mother? I really don't want to marry that Leng Yufan!"
Cao's face gradually darkened, "Tell me the truth, did you ask him for anything? Otherwise, how could he have the courage to threaten you? And how did he get your personal belongings?"
"
"Mother, yes, my daughter asked her to kill Su Xiyue, but she didn't expect that the killer he was looking for actually returned all the deposit he paid a few days ago, and also threatened that if he dared to kill Su Xiyue again,
The idea is to destroy the Marquis of Wuchang!"
"What?" Mrs. Cao's face turned pale with fright. She never thought that the person who wanted to assassinate Su Xiyue would be her good daughter! It really shocked her! "Lian'er, then, that Leng Yufan has someone?
Didn't you come out?"
"No! The killer simply thought that Leng Yufan had a problem with her, so he wanted to kill her! So, he didn't ask, so Leng Yufan naturally didn't say anything!"
"It's okay, it's okay! But now you have a shortcoming in someone's hands. If you don't agree, your reputation will be ruined! If you offend her again, the news that you hired a murderer to kill your sister will be spread."
, you really can’t eat anymore and walk away!”
"I know, that's why I'm afraid! Mother, please think of something! My daughter definitely doesn't want to marry Leng Yufan!"
"That's natural. My daughter will be the imperial concubine in the future. How can she marry that Leng Yufan? Don't worry, mother will naturally find a way to help you solve this matter. Don't show any clues now
Come on, that sister of yours is quite a genius now! If she finds out anything again, it will be very bad!"
"Yes, mother."
Mrs. Cao sent Su Lian away, gritted her teeth, walked to her bed, opened a secret cabinet beside her bed, found a half-burned incense stick, and gently pinched it in her hand.
Damn, there is no other way. Now I can only ask him for help! You can’t let your daughter’s reputation be ruined, right?
The old lady's yard was very happy at this time. Su Yu was in the house, beating the old lady's shoulders and telling jokes. The old lady was laughing happily!
"Greetings to grandma."
"It's Yue'er here! Come and sit down quickly. What's that in your hand?"
"Back to grandma, this is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that Yue'er just made. You can try it."
Seeing the old lady taste a piece, Su Xiyue offered another cup of tea, "Grandma, this is osmanthus tea, please try it."
The old lady drank tea, swallowed the food in her mouth, and praised: "It's delicious! It's really good! Yue'er, did you make this yourself?"
"Back to grandma, it was indeed made by Yue'er herself. Just now, I asked Xiaolu to send a plate to my father. This is done by first collecting the fresh osmanthus flowers, squeezing out the bitter water, soaking them in honey, and mixing them with steamed rice noodles.
, mix glutinous rice flour, cooked oil, and extracted sugar. This method was taught to Yue'er by my aunt!"
"Well, the food is indeed different from previous years! The taste is fresher, sweet but not greasy, and delicious!"
Su Xiyue didn't say much, and put the plate in front of Su Yu. Su Yu understood, picked up a piece, and ate it slowly, "It's really delicious! Grandma, I didn't expect that my second sister would have something like this."
What craftsmanship are you waiting for!”
Seeing that their sisters were getting along harmoniously, the old lady's smile deepened! "Okay! If it's delicious, just eat more of it! Pair it with this osmanthus tea, it will really be so refreshing!"
"Grandma, this sweet-scented osmanthus can be used as medicine or as food. This sweet-scented osmanthus has the effect of dispersing cold, breaking knots, resolving phlegm and relieving cough. It is used for toothache, cough and wheezing with a lot of phlegm. Yue'er sees that you have been coughing from time to time these days, and most of them have phlegm.
So I asked the doctor and made some osmanthus tea specially for you."
"Good boy! Grandma is very happy that you have such a childlike heart! It's really hard for you."
"Grandma, what are you talking about? You are Yue'er's grandmother. Isn't it natural for Yue'er to be filial to you?"
Su Yu smiled and said: "Grandma, Yu'er's hands are clumsy and she can't cook delicious food, so she can only give her a shoulder slap. Does grandma dislike Yu'er?"
"You little skinny monkey! This sour water is coming from you! I think your skin is itchy!" the old lady said with a smile.
Su Xiyue also smiled and said: "Grandma, this is a good analogy. Isn't this Yu'er just a little monkey?"
"Haha!" For a while, the room was filled with laughter! The servants waiting inside and outside the house also had joy on their faces! If the master is happy, their life will naturally be easier!
At night, there was silence in Cao's yard. Cao was still sitting at the table, watching the half stick of incense burning less and less. The incense burner was placed on the window lattice, and the window was wide open.
The curls of green smoke are like dancing beauties, drifting farther and farther away, and the unique fragrance also floats farther and farther away.
Not long after, Ms. Cao snuffed out the incense in the incense burner. Seeing that there was not much incense left in her hand, she felt heartbroken! For those who didn’t know, she would have thought that what she was holding in her hand was some kind of peerless treasure.
!
Ms. Cao had just put away the remaining incense candles when she heard the window creak. When she turned around, she saw that the window had been closed, and there was already a tall black figure in the room!
[Author's digression]: Thank you to the beauties for the tart beans! To be honest, Yiyi was very touched. Thank you all!
