Su Ruoxin, originally the Young Miss of Prefect Lin’s family in Yan Yang, grew up with Old Madam Lin in the mansion, unloved by her father and mother.
Until Prefect Lin found his biological d...
In terms of Yun Qi's connections, Su Ruojin admitted that she was indeed no match for Zhao Jingning, so she quickly drew another portrait of Yingzi and handed it to Zhao Jingning: "Thank you for your trouble, Cousin Ning."
Zhao Jingning took the portrait, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. Although it was only a few strokes, her cousin Jin had painted Yingzi's appearance so lifelike. Even she, who had studied painting with famous teachers since childhood, was impressed by her painting skills.
"Sister Jin, we're all family, don't be shy, I'll make the arrangements right away."
Qinniang was about to go out to look for her when Yanluo stopped her, saying, "Chebao still needs your care."
After the child was born, Qin Niang asked Su Ruojin to name her son. Su Ruojin felt that it was better to let the child's father do the naming, so she gave the child the nickname "Chebao".
The baby born on the carriage is called a "carriage baby," which is simple and straightforward.
Su Yiting had originally hired a wet nurse for Qin Niang, but Qin Niang felt bad about it and insisted on feeding the child herself after she recovered a bit, so Su Ruojin let her have her way.
"Qinniang, don't worry. With the Zhao family's help, it's better than you searching aimlessly on the streets by yourself. What will happen to Chebao if something happens to you? You should take care of Chebao and wait for news," Su Ruojin advised.
Qinniang knew that her mistress was right. She was not familiar with Yuncheng either, so she could only wipe away her tears and take care of her son while waiting for news.
Back inside, Su Ruojin played with the jade pendant in her hand. She had originally wanted her great-uncle to take it back. To her, it was just an ordinary jade pendant, but it was a family heirloom of the Zhao family, and it was really inappropriate to keep it in her hands any longer.
But considering all that she had gone through, and how the other party might treat her grandfather if they knew the jade pendant had returned to his maternal great-uncle's hands, she didn't bring it up again.
Let's talk about it after everything is over.
Su Ruojin thought for a moment, then got up and went to her grandmother's room, briefly explaining the matter to her grandmother.
After listening, the old lady remained silent for a while before saying, "Xiao Jin, you can do whatever you want, Grandmother will support you."
The old lady was so clever that she had already guessed that the Zhao family was most likely behind these events.
If she could guess it, how could Xiao Jin, with her intelligence, not guess it?
Xiao Jin came to see her because she was worried that if she were to lay a hand on the younger generation of the Zhao family, she would be heartbroken.
Hearing her grandmother say this, Su Ruojin felt a warmth in her heart. No matter when or where, her grandmother was always the one who loved her the most.
"Grandmother, I'm worried about my great-uncle's side..."
Before Su Ruojin could finish speaking, the old lady understood.
Ultimately, I haven't known these grand-nephews and nieces for very long, so our relationship isn't particularly deep; it's more of a blood tie.
But for the older brother, who watched his grandchildren grow up, how heartbroken he would be if they killed each other.
The old lady sighed: "Xiao Jin, if you can spare their life, then spare it. Hand them over to your great-uncle to deal with."
Grandmother's meaning was clear: as long as no one is killed, it's fine.
Su Ruojin knew that her grandmother was not being biased or protective, but rather thinking of her own interests.
If I were to kill a member of the Zhao family's grandchildren, not only would my maternal great-uncle think, but it would also give other members of the Zhao family leverage against me, which would be detrimental to me.
But if it were left to my maternal great-uncle to handle, since he was the head of the family, no one would dare to object no matter what he did.
In fact, Su Ruojin didn't care at all what others thought. With her personality, if someone bullied her, she should retaliate in kind. She didn't care what others thought at all.
But she couldn't be faked by her grandmother and great-uncle's sincerity towards her, so she always had to consider their feelings.
"Grandmother, I know what to do." Su Ruojin stood up to take her leave.
As soon as Su Ruojin left the old lady's room, Yanluo came up to her and whispered, "Miss, the people have been sent out to look for her. In addition, we have found out that the potted flower was indeed sent by Steward Lu. Someone saw Green Willow looking for Steward Lu before."
“Steward Lu? Green Willow? Send someone to keep an eye on him. Come on, follow me out of the manor.”
Su Ruojin narrowed her eyes slightly. It seemed that she had been too gentle since arriving in Yunqi, and some people were treating her like a soft persimmon that could be easily manipulated.
