Chapter 31: Shen Tingyun asks for shelter



After Su Sijin returned to the inn, she finally found out who had persuaded the prefect to conduct a surprise inspection of Zui Ren Fang.

It was Feng Jingran who had just had a caesarean section.

Feng Jingran arranged for his servants to bring her a lot of supplies, mostly dry food. The most thoughtful thing was that Feng Jingran actually sent her a donkey cart with a carriage.

The donkey cart was very spacious, and Lu Changgong, Lu Changji and Lu Qiuling sat inside without feeling crowded at all.

The maid also secretly stuffed five hundred taels of silver into her, but Su Sijin refused to take it no matter what.

"Go back and tell Sister Feng that I'll keep the things and don't need the money. Otherwise, I don't want the things either."

When Su Sijin said these words, she did not lower her voice. She showed it openly and pushed the banknote back openly.

The maid of the wealthy family naturally knew that the Lu family had bad intentions.

The maid had no choice but to take the banknote back.

Madam Lu and the others were so angry that their eyes were glued to the banknotes, and they wanted to rush forward and snatch them away.

"snort!"

The old lady snorted coldly as she walked past Su Sijin, but Su Sijin chose to ignore her.

Su Sijin was accompanied by Guo Yanling and two other girls.

But the smelly Guo Yanling was thrown directly at the door of the inn, and the innkeeper and the waiter who were involved in the case were also taken away.

Guo Yanling lay there straight. No one wanted to be contaminated by such a smelly person, and no one from the second branch of the Lu family was willing to help clean up.

Even Guo Yanling's husband Lu Changye was disgusted and refused to come forward.

In the end, it was Tang Peng who threatened the second branch of the Lu family with a whip, and Guo Yanling was purged.

But even after being washed dozens of times, the stench on Guo Yanling's body was still strong.

Guo Yanling blamed all her experiences on Su Sijin, so she looked at Su Sijin with hatred in her eyes.

Guo Yanling rushed out regardless of anything and was about to tear Su Sijin apart. The moment she succeeded, Su Sijin was pulled away by Lu Changgong's arm.

At the same time, Su Sijin fell on Lu Changgong's legs.

The incident happened suddenly, and the sudden impact caused Lu Changgong's thigh, which had always been numb, to feel a little pain.

Lu Changgong was immersed in the trance of his legs feeling instinctive. Su Sijin stood up and slapped Guo Yanling several times with her backhand.

“Pah pah pah!”

The slap was incredibly loud. "Guo Yanling, what's wrong with you? I haven't even investigated you for pushing the three of us out to take the blame for you, and you're so eager to jump out and get yourself beaten."

Guo Yanling was like a mad woman at the moment, her eyes filled with anger and hatred. "It's you, it's because of you. If it weren't for you, why would I have ended up like this?"

"If it weren't for you, this jinx, if it weren't for you, this stupid, lowly peasant girl, how could I have ended up like this?"

The Princess of Changsha should have been hers, and Lu Changgong should have been her ideal husband, but Lu Changgong was a waste.

He became a cripple and made himself look like neither human nor ghost.

She had to settle for the second best and chose to marry Lu Changye.

If Lu Changgong had not colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, bringing trouble to the Lu family, she would have sooner or later become the envied and courted Princess of Changsha.

As a result, she had to be displaced, homeless, exiled to Lingnan, and had her gold water poured on her. All these were blamed on the eldest branch of the Lu family, especially Su Sijin.

Su Sijin's eyes suddenly turned cold. "It seems that you still want to taste the taste of the golden juice. Otherwise, why would you be spewing feces?"

Guo Yanling was so scared that she stepped back repeatedly. She immediately became timid, her eyes avoiding the target, and she dared not refute arrogantly anymore.

When he was still stubborn and had a bad mouth, he said, "You...you dare...dare..."

"I don't dare? How about you try it?"

After Su Sijin finished speaking, she pretended to take a few steps forward.

Guo Yanling was so scared that she ran away with her head in her hands. Su Sijin curled her lips slightly. Fighting with her? What a fool.

"Sister Su, Sister Su."

The girl in yellow entered the inn in a disheveled state. She opened her big innocent eyes and looked at Su Sijin aggrievedly, tears streaming down her cheeks without warning.

"Girl, how did you find yourself here if you didn't go home?"

Su Sijin was puzzled by the arrival of the girl in yellow.

The girl in yellow looked at her with pitiful eyes and gently introduced herself briefly.

"I woke up there. I only remember that my name is Shen Tingyun. Where is my home? I don't remember if I have any relatives at home."

Shen Tingyun twirled her clothes and looked at Su Sijin timidly, "If it weren't for Sister Su, Tingyun might never see the light of day again. Now I only know Sister Su. Can I follow Sister Su?"

Su Sijin felt pity, but...

Su Sijin told her concerns, "Tell Miss Shen the truth, we are exiles and sent to Lingnan."

"Miss Chen has been sleeping in the open air with us, trekking through mountains and rivers, and eating the hard, coarse grains distributed by the Jie people. Something unexpected might happen on the way, and her life might be in danger."

Su Sijin looked at Shen Tingyun steadily, "So, Miss Shen also wants to follow me to Lingnan?"

Shen Tingyun nodded without thinking, “I only know Sister Su, Sister is a good person, Sister can endure hardships, why can’t I.”

Su Sijin: ...

It is not difficult to see from Shen Tingyun's words and deeds that Shen Tingyun must be of extraordinary origin, and may even be the lost daughter of a wealthy family.

She may not realize the hardships and dangers of exile. Su Sijin's eyes darkened slightly and she thought of a compromise.

"It's not that I don't want you to follow me. Exile is hard, and the delicate Miss Shen might not be able to endure it. Here, I know Sister Feng. She is just like you, gentle and kind."
