Chapter 50 Another Turbulence
Yu Shengsheng was indifferent, but Jin Baobao would not tolerate it and raised his eyelids to look at the old woman.
"My young lady is kind-hearted. She put on some rouge on purpose to avoid being seen by others and bringing disgrace to the Su family."
"How about wiping it now?"
The old woman curled her lips and said nothing more.
Madam Su sobbed, "Shengsheng, are you still holding a grudge against me? I can't do anything about it. Your eldest brother is also seriously injured. This is really not a place for people to stay."
Yu Shengsheng said lightly: "This place has been famous for a long time, and Madam is not new to it. Fortunately, I am lucky."
Mrs. Su's tears rolled down, and the old woman forced a smile and said, "Miss Sheng, I said something that I shouldn't have said..."
"If you know you shouldn't say it, then don't say it," Jin Baobao interrupted her, "You are so talkative and talk too much. How can you be someone's servant?"
"You little bitch..."
Yu Shengsheng's eyes were cold and deep: "Madam, be careful with your words! Baobao is loyal to me and followed me into the Zhenqiao Tower regardless of her life. Her life is one with mine. If you scold her, you are scolding me."
Yu Shengsheng turned her gaze to Madam Su: "Madam, if you want the servants to scold me, that's fine, but don't do it in front of me."
Madam Su quickly asked, "Why would mother scold you? Don't misunderstand me."
Yu Shengsheng didn't want to talk any more nonsense and walked forward.
Madam Su followed beside her: "Get in the car, okay?"
Before Yu Shengsheng could answer, a group of extremely showy and arrogant people passed by, and seven or eight servants surrounded Lu Xingzhan, who was sitting on a bench carried by two people.
Lu Xingzhan knocked on the two of them and slowed down. He waved his fan with a smile on his face.
"Oh, that idiot, is he out? One moment he goes to the Villa, the next moment he goes to the Zhenqiao Tower. Tell me about your fate. Tsk, it's more bitter than the Coptis chinensis in my mother's medicine field."
Jin Baobao put his hands on his hips and said loudly: "My young lady is not stupid!"
Lu Xingzhan snorted and laughed: "Not stupid, but being bullied every day, getting hurt and beaten is not as valuable as a few tears from others! Guys, let's go to Tianxianglou to have a drink! I see this bullied guy wants to beat him up."
The servants cheered and carried him away.
Mrs. Su's face was pale and blue, with tears still in her eyes. She didn't know whether to cry or not.
"Shengsheng, get in the car. Mommy begs you to save some face for me, okay?"
Yu Shengsheng didn't want to get in her car, but there were so many people coming and going on the road, and she didn't want to be treated like a monkey.
Turn around and get in the car.
Mrs. Su smiled and hurried after him.
Mrs. Su pushed the snack box over and said, "Try it. These are what you like."
Yu Shengsheng glanced at the snack box - these were not what she liked, but what Su Zhiyi liked.
She didn't like sour food. She had eaten too many sour and bitter fruits in the countryside before. After returning to the Su Mansion, she liked to eat sweet food.
But Su Zhiyi doesn't like it, saying it's too sweet, and even prefers sweet and sour candied fruits.
Mrs. Su knew this, but every time she bought snacks, she mostly bought sour ones, and the sweet ones were only used as a side dish.
Just like her.
Yu Shengsheng didn't say anything and didn't eat.
Madam Su saw her fingers and asked distressedly, "Were you tortured? Did you hurt any bones?"
"Your eldest brother has also been whipped dozens of times and is still unable to get out of bed. His arm is dislocated, but luckily it is only a dislocation. The doctor said that if it is a broken bone, it will affect his ability to hold weapons in the future. Your eldest brother is a military commander. What will happen if he can't hold a weapon?"
She pressed her eyes, and seeing Yu Shengsheng remained silent, she felt a little embarrassed: "If you get your eldest brother back, the whole family will be grateful to you, and your eldest brother will talk about you every day."
"Your second brother went to see Master Kong for you. Your second brother rarely travels so far. Zhiyi was worried and fell ill several times. Shengsheng, we are a family. You see, everyone treats you well, right?"
Yu Shengsheng sneered secretly. The whole family was grateful and treated her well? Madam Su's ability to confuse right and wrong was really first-rate.
She raised her eyes to look at Madam Su: "Where is Grandma Wu? We agreed that I would come to Zhenqiao Tower and you would let Grandma Wu return to my yard."
Madam Su was startled, with a fake smile on her face: "You are still thinking about her. Shengsheng, she is just an old slave. If it weren't for the fact that she took care of you, why would our Su family support her? She has no worries about food and clothing now, which is a hundred times better than living in the countryside..."
Yu Shengsheng said softly but firmly: "Grandma Wu is not supported by the Su family. She has endless work to do every day, and she doesn't have to rely on the Su family to survive. If Madam thinks she is not good, you can let her go and send her back to the countryside."
Madam Su lowered her eyes and twisted her handkerchief with both hands: "Shengsheng, we are mother and daughter. Your grandmother is here too. You always call an old slave grandma and think about her all the time. Aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of your relatives?"
Yu Shengsheng almost wanted to laugh. She really didn’t know how she could say such a thing.
"It's not me who chilled the Su family's hearts. It's my heart that was chilled and dead a year ago."
Madam Su's eyes turned red again, and she sighed softly, "There's nothing I can do about that matter. Someone has to take the responsibility for that arrow. Zhiyi was injured, but your elder and second brothers are the pillars of the Su family."
So she has to be sacrificed, right?
Yu Shengsheng was not interested in asking any more questions. They had wronged her, and everyone felt wronged, except for her, who was wronged and deserved it.
Madam Su was silent for a moment: "Shengsheng, the whole family is happy that you are back this time. Your grandmother and second uncle are waiting for you. When you get home, go and pay your respects to grandmother first."
When we arrived at the Su Mansion, the servants inside and outside the door were in high spirits. Some of them were holding colorful lanterns and flags and hanging them on the trees.
Jin Baobao and the old woman were walking behind and raised their eyebrows slightly when they saw this scene.
"My young lady is going back home, instead of getting these fancy things, it would be better to get something more practical."
The old woman sneered, "This is prepared for the princess' birthday. Three days later is the princess' birthday banquet. Every year it is a grand event. Preparations start a few days in advance to entertain the young ladies and nobles from all the mansions."
Yu Shengsheng listened carefully without even twitching his eyebrows.
Her birthday is the same day as Su Zhiyi's, but she has never celebrated her birthday.
The birthday had already passed the year she first arrived at the Su Mansion. The next year, Su Huaishan said that when it came to holding a birthday for his cousin, there was no guarantee that others would not make random guesses.
As for the third year, she was in a dark room in the villa, unable to tell the difference between day and night, and she didn't remember her birthday at all.
It was Lady Officer Song who told her that day that she was going to the Su Residence to give Princess Rongyang a birthday gift, which was a ruby hairpin. It was said that the Empress personally arranged for the Imperial Household Department to make it and it was one-of-a-kind.
That night she was not in the small dark room, but was locked in a dog cage by the prince. Just as she was terrified, she suddenly saw gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky.
That is the direction of the Su Mansion.
She thought at the time that Su Zhiyi’s birthday party must be very lively and the Su family must be very happy.
She thought at that time that from now on, she would never celebrate her birthday again.
Madam Su whispered, "Shengsheng, Zhiyi has not been feeling well these past two days and has been very unhappy. The Shen family incident... was a big blow to her."
"Can you please stop arguing with her about the birthday party?"
Before Yu Shengsheng could speak, a cold voice with strong sarcasm came.
"As a cousin, what right do you have to argue with Zhiyi?"
