Chapter 52 Intimate Little Cotton-padded Jacket
Shen Qingyu changed her left hand and pulled the red rope with all her strength. Su Xiaoxiao looked at Shen Qingyu vigilantly, holding her baby milk bottle in her hand.
As long as she didn't snatch her milk bottle, everything else would be fine!
Shen Qingyu thought she must be dazzled, the red rope suddenly turned into a golden dragon, biting her arm fiercely!
Shen Qingyu was so scared that she stepped back repeatedly, tripped over the chair, and fell directly into the pond outside with a thud.
"Xiaoxiao!" Su Bowen heard the voice, broke out in a cold sweat, threw away the wine glass and ran towards the pond.
"Aiyaya!" Su Xiaoxiao was tilting her head and looking at Lian in the pond, saying something.
[Why did my sister suddenly jump into the water? Is it because it’s fun in the water?]
Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao was fine, Su Bowen finally regained consciousness and hugged Su Xiaoxiao in his arms, comforting her softly: "Xiaoxiao, you are not scared, are you? It’s Daddy’s fault. He shouldn’t have handed you over to others!"
Liu and Shen Tianyou arrived late and saw that Su Xiaoxiao was safe and sound. They were shocked to find that it was not Xiaoxiao who fell into the water.
Shen Tianyou panicked: "What happened? Where is Qingyu?"
"Grandfather, save me!" Shen Qingyu felt that something in the pond was pulling her and preventing her from getting up.
"Someone, come and rescue Miss Shen!" Liu glanced at Shen Tianyou and hurriedly asked the servants to go into the water to rescue her. Liu
glared at Su Xiaoxiao with disgust: "Xiaoxiao is too ignorant. How could she push her sister into the water!"
Su Bowen laughed in anger: "Mother, what you said is funny. Xiaoxiao can't even sit steadily now, how can she push the second Miss Shen? It was the second Miss Shen who insisted on taking Xiaoxiao to play, and ended up throwing Xiaoxiao alone into the water. I really don't know what her intention was."
Shen Tianyou was very angry when he saw his granddaughter panicking in the water. He said with a stern face: "Prince Su, you are a guest here. It would be fine if you were not polite tonight. But now the child is in the water and his life is hanging by a thread. You are still saying such frivolous words. It is really an insult to the Duke's Mansion."
Su Bowen sneered, "Second Miss Shen, stop struggling. The water in the pond is not even up to your waist. If you continue to struggle, the water will dry up!"
The servants in the mansion were also puzzled. Why didn't Second Miss Shen stand up? She had to lie in the water and howl like a ghost. She was not even pretending!
"There is something in the water. Save me, grandfather!" Shen Qingyu's limbs were hooked by something and she couldn't stand up at all. Because she was struggling desperately, the servants had to work hard to get close to her.
This is obviously a bottomless deep pool. How can Su Bowen say it is just a small pond?
"Second Miss Shen, get up!" When the servant approached, the mysterious force pulling her disappeared instantly. The pond returned to calm, and the water was indeed waist-deep.
Shen Tianyou was speechless for a moment. It was obvious that Qingyou was really scared just now!
Su Bowen's face was gloomy, and he said unhappily: "Lord Shen, my daughter was frightened. I will take her back first and will not accompany Lord Shen. Mother, your son will go first!"
[I'm not scared, it's so fun! Forget it, give daddy some face! ]
Su Xiaoxiao cooperated very well and pouted, and cried aggrievedly.
How can this little cotton jacket be so caring? Su Bowen couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.
He quickly hugged his daughter and turned around. If it was a second later, he was afraid that he would laugh.
Su Xiaoxiao hugged her father's neck and cried, but she was very happy in her heart.
[Let's go, to find mother, why don't you kneel down yet! ]
Suddenly there was a noise behind, Su Bohao and Liu were in a mess: "Sir Shen, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Shen Tianyou didn't know what happened, his legs suddenly became weak, and he knelt down in front of Su Bowen.
Su Bowen turned around and saw Shen Tianyou kneeling in front of him. Neither of them helped him up. He vaguely felt that it was his daughter who was standing up for him.
He kissed Su Xiaoxiao on her round face and couldn't help but sigh, how could he be so worthy to have such a powerful and caring lady.
Shen Tianyou lost two teeth and got the problem of intermittent weak legs.
Shen Qingyu had serious internal injuries on both hands and was attacked by an unknown creature in the water. Now she is afraid of water.
A good meal ended in a bad mood.
Su Bohao said angrily: "Mother, there is no need for you to call my brother. He must be feeling unbalanced because Lord Shen values me, so he is deliberately looking for trouble!"
Liu believed it very much. Her son has made progress. After so many years, Su Bowen has finally been jealous.
Shen Qingyao looked at her grandfather and concubine sister who were acting like a wolf, and she became more and more dissatisfied.
"I really don't understand why you have to rush here to suffer, especially you. When did you become so caring? You even go to help others take care of their children. It's really embarrassing."
"Shut up!" Shen Tianyou scolded angrily. Looking at Shen Qingyu's expression, he knew that her plan had failed.
Now, he believed Shen Qingyu's words even more. There was indeed something strange about the little baby in Su Bowen's family.
The three things that Li Yutang and the prince's illnesses were cured without medicine, and the emperor's altar prayer for rain solved the drought in Dashuo were already very strange.
If she was favored by the emperor, Su Bowen's family would rise to prominence, and even his mortal enemy, Zhao Antai's family, would benefit from it.
Why did Zhao Antai have children around him and enjoy the blessing of having two wives, but he couldn't even keep his legitimate son, and his only biological son couldn't even call him father.
If the affair between him and Liu was exposed, Su Bowen might even cut off his bones and peel off his skin. He must get rid of that child, not Su Bowen and the Zhao family.
"Grandfather, it's the granddaughter's fault!" Shen Qingyu changed her previous arrogance and said it with grievance and self-blame. "It's the granddaughter who underestimated her!"
Shen Tianyou looked at the eldest granddaughter on the side. Now he felt that the eldest granddaughter was stupid and only knew how to make small calculations and was anxious about her own marriage. If the Shen family fell, how could she find a good marriage.
"Send this letter to Mobei, the sooner the better!" Shen Tianyou's eyes were sinister in the dark. It was just a little kid, how much trouble could he make.
The early autumn morning breeze was already a little chilly. Su Bowen, dressed in court robes, dismounted neatly, handed the reins to his followers, and strode towards the Qinzheng Palace.
Other court officials also came from all over the capital, gathered at the palace gate, and hurried to attend the court.
The Minister of Works Zheng Yi trotted a few steps to catch up with him: "Good morning, Prince Su!"
Su Bowen hurriedly greeted: "Good morning, Lord Liu!"
Zheng Yimiao said beside him: "Prince Su has made great contributions in suppressing bandits, and your little daughter is deeply loved by the emperor. You are not far from being promoted!"
Zhou Huaian, a doctor in the Ministry of War, said in a gloomy tone: "More than being promoted, I think it will not be long before Prince Su inherits the position of Duke. Have you seen whose daughter was carried by the emperor to offer sacrifices to the gods? I heard that the emperor would take your daughter to the palace every now and then to relieve his boredom. It's really the same person with different fates. If you have a good daughter, you will have to work harder for decades!"
