Why do you say that?

"Old Madam Xiang is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yingguo in the previous dynasty. Even if she is now down on her luck, she may not look up to Madam Su."

Cui Yun'er was stunned, and her expression immediately became somewhat downcast.

"Why is Ah Rong's life so miserable? Her husband died and she can't even marry the man she loves..."

Ming Shu glanced at her, wanting to tell her that Su Xue Rong was not a widow!

However, the fact that she was Xiao Shiyan's ex-wife was something the master instructed not to reveal to anyone, not even Ling Qingxue.

"Don't you pity the prince?" Ming Shu raised an eyebrow.

In his eyes, his master was the one he wanted but couldn't have.

"Him?" Cui Yun'er said irritably, "He only needs to beckon, and half the women in Hangzhou will come to marry him. What's so pitiful about him?"

"But Su Niangzi wasn't among those people!"

Cui Yun'er pouted: "So what? Arong doesn't like him anyway."

Neither of them knew what to say.

Three days later, Su Xuerong, along with Lin Jinyu, the two children, Xiuchun and Xiaohong, and two old women, and also with all the food and clothing the children needed, boarded the two carriages sent by the Prince's Mansion.

Lin Jinyu asked curiously, "Cousin, that Lady Cui is really generous. She actually invited us to the Prince's summer resort."

Su Xuerong neither agreed nor disagreed with her words.

But she guessed that this time it might have been Xiao Yuan's idea.

She glanced at Su Jian, who was sitting silently to the side, and reached out to pat his head: "When we get to the villa, Auntie will take you hiking."

Su Jian slowly looked up at her, and after a long while, he said, "Auntie, is my mother not coming back?"
