Chapter 506: The Femme Fatale in the Double Life Story (5)

Su Miaoer also saw Su Yu.

Thinking of her past life, she couldn't show a good face to Su Yu: "Why are you here?"

"Mother, elder sister." Su Yu walked in and bowed slightly. "I heard that elder sister woke up. I was very happy and came to see her specially."

Su Miaoer didn't believe it.

It would be strange for Su Yu to be happy considering the way she treated her.

Su Miaoer curled her lips: "The weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken. Are you here to laugh at me?"

Su Yu was at a loss for words, and quickly said to Madam Hou: "Mother, please understand, I have absolutely no such intention."

Madam Hou naturally knew that Su Yu didn't have the guts to do that, so she scolded him indifferently, "Miao'er."

There wasn't much blame in his tone.

Su Miaoer was angry and lay down on the bed with her back to Madam Hou: "I didn't say anything wrong."

The Marquis's wife couldn't do anything about her, so she tucked the corner of the quilt for her and asked another question: "That day you fell into the water from the boat, do you remember why you fell into the water?"

Su Yu looked extremely calm.

Su Miaoer came back from a few years later and didn't remember the incident very clearly. She frowned and thought for a while: "I just remember that the lotus flowers beside the boat were blooming beautifully. I wanted to pick one, but I fell into the lake."

It was obvious that the railing she was leaning on broke when she went to pick lotus flowers, and she fell into the lake.

Madam Hou blamed her: "Why are you picking lotus flowers for no reason? There is no one on the boat to help you pick them."

Su Yu pretended not to hear that Madam Hou was talking about her.

Su Miaoer also forgot what she was thinking at the time: "Mom, please don't ask, my head hurts."

"Okay, go to sleep, I won't disturb you anymore."

The Marquis's wife hadn't slept well in the past two days, and she was finally looking forward to waking up. When she relaxed, she felt sleepy.

Su Yu also left.

After this trip, Su Yu's original sleepiness disappeared. Thinking of what Su Miaoer said when she entered the room, her eyes dimmed.

Lan Ying also thought of those words and was very puzzled: "Why did the eldest lady suddenly want to marry Mr. Xie when she was fine? Did she know Mr. Xie before?"

Su Yu shook her head: "Absolutely impossible."

Not to mention that Su Miaoer basically never leaves the house, and even if he does, he will take her with him. Not to mention that Xie Qinglan and Su Miaoer are not from the same world, so the two have no chance to meet at all.

"That's strange."

Su Yu also found it strange and meaningful: "But this is an opportunity."

The Yongchang Marquis Mansion has been very lively these two days.

First, the eldest daughter fell into the water and was in distress for two days. Later, Nanny Tong, who served the lady, also slipped and fell into the lake and drowned. People in the mansion couldn't help but wonder if the mansion had been in conflict with water recently.

But the most exciting thing is not these two things, but——

The eldest daughter insisted on marrying an unknown poor scholar. She was willing to commit suicide and even went so far as to go on a hunger strike to insist on getting married.

The poor scholar was none other than the man who was engaged to the second young lady.

For a moment, everyone in the mansion was watching the excitement in the master's house.

Su Miaoer has been on a hunger strike for the whole day, and said weakly: "If you don't agree, I won't eat. I'll starve to death."

Yongchang Hou glared angrily: "Then don't eat it!"

The Marquis's wife glared at him and said, "My Lord, Miao'er is ignorant. I will try to persuade her. Please stop making trouble here."

Marquis Yongchang snorted coldly and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

The Marquis's wife was also exhausted by the commotion, and her tone became stern: "In half a month it will be your grandmother's birthday, and all the people in the capital who are on good terms with the Marquis's will come to celebrate. If you continue to make trouble and bring shame to the mansion, your father will no longer care about you. You should decide for yourself what is more important."

After saying this, the Marquis's wife also left.

There was a lot to worry about at the old lady’s birthday banquet, so the Marquis had no time to fool around with Su Miaoer. He glanced at Su Miaoer’s personal maid and said, “Take good care of your young lady.”

The maid quickly replied, "Yes."

Seeing her mother really gone, Su Miaoer stood up in disbelief, wiped her tears in grievance, and said angrily: "Let's all go! Let's all go!"

The maid brought some cakes and said, "Miss, you have been hungry all day. Don't let your stomach get hungry. Eat something quickly."

Su Miaoer took a look and turned her head away: "Take it away, I don't want to eat it!"

The maid had no choice but to worry that Su Miaoer would be in trouble because of hunger. The lady punished her by holding cakes and saying kindly, "No matter what, you can't joke with your own body."

"I told you I won't eat it!"

It was difficult to persuade the damned ghost with kind words, and the maid looked worried.

At this time, someone outside came to report: "Miss, the second lady wants to see you."

Su Miaoer didn't even think about it: "No, let her go."

"etc."

Su Miaoer suddenly stopped the servant who was about to report, frowned and muttered: "Why is she coming here at this time?"

After thinking for a long time, Su Miaoer suddenly changed her mind: "Let her in."

Seeing the cakes in the maid's hand, Su Miaoer's stomach growled. Finally, she waved her hand cruelly and said, "Take these things away."

"You guys go out too, don't get in my way here."

The other servants hesitated for a moment, but still did not disobey her order.

As soon as Su Yu came in, she saw Su Miaoer sending all the servants out. The corners of her mouth slowly curled up, which was exactly what she wanted.

"elder sister."

When Su Miaoer saw Su Yu, she felt mixed emotions. In her previous life, this half sister had a better life than her.

She clearly married into the Duke's mansion, while her concubine sister married a poor scholar with nothing. In just a few years, their situations were completely reversed.

If I had known that Xie Qinglan was so ambitious...

It was a pity that she didn't know everything in advance. Fortunately, God had mercy on her and let her live again, returning to the time before her marriage. The engagement between her concubine's sister and Xie Qinglan had not yet been officially confirmed.

Su Miaoer's eyes flickered, she raised a hypocritical smile, and waved at Su Yu: "Sister is here, come and sit down."

At this time, Su Yu was also thinking about ways to get out of the engagement according to her character.

Based on the original owner's personality, it would be impossible for her to marry Xie Qinglan so peacefully, and it would be unreasonable if she didn't cause some trouble.

Although both of them had their own ulterior motives, the atmosphere was harmonious.

Su Yu chatted about this and that and asked about Su Miaoer's health. Su Yu pretended not to notice that Su Miaoer had something to say: "I'm relieved to see that my sister is safe."

Su Miaoer wanted to say something but stopped herself. Finally, she couldn't help herself and took the initiative to say it: "I heard from Daddy that you and Xie Qinglan are engaged."

Su Yu's expression froze, and her eyes couldn't stop reddening.

Su Miaoer asked bluntly: "Don't you want to marry him?"

Su Yu lowered her head: "It's my parents' order and the matchmaker's words. I dare not object..."

Su Miaoer interrupted: "Stop talking nonsense. I just want to ask you one question: do you not want to marry him?"

After hesitating for a long time, Su Yu nodded slowly.

Su Miaoer smiled confidently: "That's perfect. If you don't marry, I will. I can let Daddy find a new marriage for you."

According to Su Yu's status, she could have married into a wealthy family and would not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life. However, she suddenly found out that she was engaged to a poor scholar. If it were Su Miaoer, she would definitely not be able to tolerate it.

But Su Miaoer had memories of the future and knew that Xie Qinglan was no ordinary person and would be very successful in the future.

Staring at Su Yu's surprised and shocked expression, the little guilt in Su Miaoer's heart disappeared completely.

Su Yu didn't want to get married in the first place, so doing this could be considered as helping her.
