"Alright, alright, the food should be almost ready. Let's go over there."

Main room

Wang Xiucai noticed that Er Ya and the old lady had already arrived, but his wife had not yet returned.

I was still a little anxious.

After a while, he saw his young mistress and the princess walking towards him one after the other, and his heart finally settled down.

Er Ya frowned as she looked at her brother-in-law's anxious appearance and then at her own husband who was looking around curiously.

When she and the old lady arrived, they saw her husband looking around the Princess's mansion as if he were someone who had never seen the world.

Especially when he saw the several pretty maids in the mansion, he couldn't help but keep his eyes glued to them.

But seeing the gifts piled up on the table, he straightened his back. Soon the food was served and the whole family of more than a dozen people sat at a huge dining table.

This table was a large round table that Su Muyao had researched. When Wang Xiucai first saw such a large glass turntable, his eyes widened, but he quickly composed himself.

Liu Yu's eyes were glued to the glass: "The Princess's mansion is truly grand! Even the dining table is made of transparent glass. These are priceless treasures!"

Liu Yu was completely unlike the timid person she was when she first entered the mansion. In fact, everyone in the entire Princess's mansion, from the old lady to the old master, was completely unpretentious.

The cooks and servants all referred to themselves as "I," and it was rare to see them call themselves "slave."

The Su family members found this very pleasant and comfortable, but Liu Yu felt it was something that couldn't be presented in a respectable manner.

In his eyes, the father, mother, and grandparents of the dignified Grand Preceptor were nothing more than weak and easily bullied country bumpkins.

The thought that his purpose in coming here might actually come true...

Just after all the dishes were served, Old Man Su was the first to pick up a piece of fish with his chopsticks.

Immediately afterwards, everyone started to pick up their chopsticks.

At this moment, Liu Yu asked Su Muyao, "Little Princess, I heard that you are quite a powerful figure in the imperial court."

I wonder if the young princess could arrange a position for me?

Although my family has some money, we are not familiar with anyone in the imperial court, so I don't know if the young princess has any connections to help us.

Before Su Muyao could even look up, Old Man Su slammed down his chopsticks and pointed at Liu Yu, cursing, "Shameless! If you're so capable, go and take the exam for an official position!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu immediately retorted, "We're all family now, so let's not let this good stuff go to outsiders."

If I were to become an official, wouldn't I end up serving the princess's household?

Su Muyao looked up at Er Ya: "What do you think?"

When Er Ya heard Su Muyao point at her, she thought that as long as she nodded in agreement with what her husband said, the little princess would help her husband get an official position.

She nodded quickly: "If you have any ideas, why don't you help your husband? You can give him any hard or tiring tasks in the future."

Liu Yu nodded in agreement with Er Ya's words, thinking that the girl was sensible.

Su Muyao then took a handkerchief from the side and wiped her mouth: "I was originally going to give you some face, Er Ya, what is your identity? And what is your status that you asked me to do things for you?"

What does it mean to be family? If you truly considered us family, you wouldn't have asked that question.

You are not a member of the Su family and have no relation to us whatsoever. If it weren't for your sister protecting you in every way, and your understanding sister worrying about the factory for so many years, it would be a huge loss.

It's only because you're your sister's only younger sister; otherwise, why would you, with your status, be able to marry out of the princess's mansion?

This marriage was your own choice, and whether things turn out well or badly in the future has nothing to do with the Princess's Mansion. I believe you should remember this.

This return visit is to give your sister face. Don't come to the Princess's residence again, and I hope you won't use the Princess's name to do business outside, or don't blame me for being impolite.”

After saying that, he got up and left the table.

If Er Ya had been more reasonable just now, she wouldn't have said such harsh things.

Grandma Su's face also fell.

Su Laosan was naturally unhappy; his daughter had stormed off without even eating.

Su Laosan said, "To put it bluntly, Er Ya, you're just a maid who was bought. How come you've forgotten who you are after staying in the manor for two years?"

Daya was also quite embarrassed. If she hadn't been there, she knew the little princess would have definitely given Erya a good scolding.

The young princess was already concerned about saving face, which is why she only said such mild words.

Er Ya felt extremely wronged after being scolded by the young princess.

Even though the young princess is already the Imperial Advisor, all she has to do in court is say a word to secure an official position for her husband. It would be a piece of cake.

Is it really necessary to be so angry?

She even said she shouldn't go back to the princess's mansion in the future. Humph, who cares?

The whole family acted all high and mighty, saying they would find them good husbands in the future, but look at the poor family they chose for their sister.

She didn't even agree to my marriage with Liu Lang. Luckily, I finally agreed, otherwise I would have ended up like my sister, eating chaff and wild vegetables.

Liu Yu sat to the side, unsure of what to do. He dared not simply turn his back and leave, yet he also felt ashamed to remain there.

Seeing such a large table of food, I originally thought that although Er Ya was a maid in the princess's mansion, she still had some status.

Unexpectedly, it was because of her sister.

If I had known this would happen, I should have investigated more thoroughly and married Daya instead.

Old Su lost his appetite and was furious at Liu Yu's shifty-eyed appearance.

"You guys eat, I'm going back to my room. And Er Ya, once you've finished eating, take your son and leave. Don't ever come to the Princess's mansion again."

After saying that, he turned around, got up, and left the table.

At this moment, Old Lady Su called out to Daya and Wang Xiucai: "Look at what a wonderful homecoming should have been, but it was ruined by some unreasonable people."

Please don't mind! Come and try this dish, it's a specialty from our hometown, Da Ya loves it, you should try it too.

Wang Xiucai and everyone else were exchanging pleasantries and the family seemed to be having a great time, which deeply hurt Er Ya.

They were all bought, so why should Daya be treated specially?

She was ordered never to come to the princess's mansion again, but her sister did not say a word for her.

She really is the most scheming person. I really underestimated my older sister before.

So, all that was the purpose of her behavior at the princess's mansion was to one day trample me underfoot.

Seeing that he was not well received, Liu Yu could only leave awkwardly.

Seeing that her husband had left, Er Ya could only follow behind and get into the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Liu Yu slapped Er Ya across the face: "Useless thing, I should have married your sister instead of you."
