Su Yushan is actually his sister! What a coincidence! She was just speculating, but she actually guessed right! A surprised Xin'er gave an awkward smile.

"Really? You're so lucky to have such a sister!"

It had been quite a while since Su Jiafeng had seen his older sister, so when someone mentioned her, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "You know my sister?"

If she said she knew him, he would probably keep pressing her for details, but Xin'er didn't want to tell anyone about her background, so she immediately shook her head.

"I don't know her. I only heard the neighbors talking about her. They said there was a maid from Suzhou in the Fourth Prince's mansion who was as beautiful as a fairy. I never expected that she was your family member."

Speaking of her older sister, Su Jiafeng proudly raised her head and said, "My sister is not only beautiful, but also gentle and kind. She is the one who loves me the most in the whole family."

Xin'er asked curiously, "So, you're practically royalty, you should have your sister arrange a good job for you, why are you still working here?"

Others may not know, but Su Jiafeng knows very well that his sister's entry into the Fourth Prince's mansion was a matter of chance. "We were just ordinary people from Suzhou. My sister has suddenly stepped into the royal family. She must be very uncomfortable. I'm afraid her life will be very difficult. I don't want to cause her any more trouble."

Seeing his worry, Xin'er couldn't help but comfort him, "Your worries are unnecessary. I heard that Consort Su is very favored in the mansion. When the Fourth Prince goes out for an autumn outing, he only takes Consort Su with him and no one else."

Autumn outing? I guess that's the time Zheng Lin went on his picnic and met his sister, right? She knows her sister goes out to play? Su Jiafeng was surprised and looked at the girl in front of her with a questioning gaze.

"You seem to know a lot about what's going on in the Fourth Prince's mansion."

To avoid arousing his suspicion, Xin'er made an excuse: "I have a relative who works in the Fourth Prince's mansion. In his spare time, he tells me about things that happen in the mansion. These things are not supposed to be told to outsiders, but I see that you are a relative of Su Gege, so I told you."

Her explanation was reasonable, and Su Jiafeng nodded in understanding, having no further doubts.

Because of Su Yushan, the two got along very well. Since he wasn't busy at the moment, he helped her draw well water and pick and wash vegetables.

With his help, the morning's work was quickly finished, and Xin'er finally had a chance to rest.

She did a good job, but Manager He's daughter was still worried that she would quit after a short time and didn't want her to stay.

Xin'er initially thought the job was too hard and wanted to quit, but when she learned that Su Jiafeng was Su Yushan's younger brother, she decided to stay and repeatedly begged Miss He not to send her away.

After thinking for a long time, Miss He said, "The New Year is just a few months away, and I don't have time to hire anyone else. I have to hold onto one month's wages. You have to promise not to leave before February next year. If you leave before then, I won't pay you back. I'll only pay you back after you've worked for six months."

Miss He laid out the unpleasant truths upfront, and Xin'er nodded repeatedly, assuring her that she would definitely be able to continue working there for a long time.

From then on, she settled down to work there and took the opportunity to get close to Su Jiafeng and ask him about Su Yushan.

Su Yushan is a time traveler. She has no memory of the original owner's relatives, only that the original owner had a brother and a sister. She has met Su Mingfeng and Su Yuchan, but has not yet met Su Jiafeng, and does not know anything about this younger brother.

But those were the original owner's relatives after all, and she had an obligation to help the original owner take care of her family. So every month when she received her monthly allowance, she would secretly ask someone to bring some money to Su Mingfeng.

Su Mingfeng was reluctant to accept the money. He knew that his sister was living on thin ice in the Fourth Master's mansion and should have more money prepared for her. But his sister insisted on giving it to him, so he had no choice but to accept it for the time being and keep it for her, to give it to her when she needed it in the future.

The siblings all considered each other's feelings, and even though they didn't see each other often, they always cared about each other.

Since moving into Huatang Pavilion, Su Yushan has been busy growing vegetables. As for what flowers to plant in the empty plot of land, she hasn't decided yet.

In her memory, there was a small purple flower blooming in the fields, but she didn't know its name. Hongli asked her to draw it, and she did draw it when she had free time.

Unfortunately, Hongli was most familiar with precious and rare flowers and trees, and upon seeing this small flower, he really couldn't name it.

"Look at your painting, it looks a bit like a goldenrod."

Li Yu glanced at it and said in a low voice, "The petals of the golden chrysanthemum are wider, but the petals that the princess painted are very thin. To this servant, they look like aster."

Unable to determine the exact type, Hongli had both types of flowers brought to him.

There were golden chrysanthemums in the mansion, but no asters, so Li Yu sent people outside to pick them.

Half an hour later, when the servant brought both kinds of flowers, Su Yushan's eyes lit up, and she recognized them at a glance, "This is the flower! So it's called Aster!"

She had seen this flower before and had heard the name Aster, but she didn't know that this was the Aster flower until today.

The small, delicate purple petals are fresh and elegant. It doesn't need a flowerpot; you can simply plant a patch of them on the ground.

Hongli arranged for servants to plant them, but Su Yushan felt that their planting lacked aesthetic appeal, so she took matters into her own hands and used a wooden fence to create an irregular shape, and had the aster planted inside the fence.

In addition, Hongli also sent her many famous chrysanthemums and camellias. Su Yushan knew nothing about growing flowers, but fortunately Changyue knew how to take care of them. When Su Yushan had nothing to do, she followed Changyue to learn how to tend to the flowers and plants, decorating the new courtyard in a quiet and elegant manner.

With these trivial matters to distract her, her days weren't so boring.

That night, under a sky full of stars, Hongli came to Huatang Pavilion as usual, bringing her a box with him.

Taking the slender sandalwood box, Su Yushan asked curiously, "What is this?"
