Chapter 51 Su Yu's Plan
They both stepped through the door together.
When Han heard the noise, she hurried out of the house to help, with a trail of people following her.
Su Yu went to the backyard almost surrounded by everyone.
Han placed her things on the bed and said, "Everything in the room is new, even the quilt was just made. From now on, this room will be yours."
"Thank you, auntie." Su Yu thanked her obediently, with generous and elegant manners.
Seeing how much Han admired her and kept praising her, even Ruan Xiaoyu was distracted several times when looking at Su Yu.
The group put their things down and went to the main room to talk.
Su Tai then looked at Su Zhan, "You didn't go to your grandparents' house today?"
"We went!" Su Zhan looked at Ruan Xiaoyu a little embarrassedly, "We all went, and grandma even gave Xiaoyu a gift."
Ruan Xiaoyu quickly took out her small purse and said, "It's ten coins and a piece of material."
Su Tai saw her bright appearance and it was obvious that she was recognized by the Han family.
Su Yu guessed Ruan Xiaoyu's identity as soon as she heard it, and immediately took off the silver hairpin on her head and inserted it on Ruan Xiaoyu's head, smiling and saying: "I don't have anything good on me, don't despise this hairpin."
"No, no. This is too expensive. I can't accept it." Ruan Xiaoyu pretended to take off the hairpin.
Su Yu smiled faintly and shook her head, "If you don't accept it, you despise me."
Ruan Xiaoyu didn't dare to move.
Han then signaled Ruan Xiaoyu to accept the things, and said to Su Yu with a smile: "You should have a good rest today. You still need the help of the village chief to settle down. I will take you there tomorrow to sit down and meet people."
On the first day Su Yu came back, she felt the enthusiasm and kindness of her uncle's family. Her heart gradually settled down, and she felt more and more that her original decision was the right one.
After noon on the next day, Han picked up two meat buns and four white flour buns, and took Su Tai and the veiled Su Yu to the village chief's house.
As soon as the three of them entered the house, Su Changxi's entire family focused their attention on Su Yu.
It was the first time that Su Sheng had seen such an unusual woman. He was dumbfounded and his eyes did not move.
Han proudly pulled Su Yu forward and introduced her to everyone, "This is Su Yu, Xiao Tai's cousin. She will live in our village from now on."
Huang came back to her senses and looked gossipy. "She must be Chunsen's daughter! Oh! She looks different. Isn't she working for a wealthy family in the county? Why is she back?"
Su Yu touched her face with her delicate hands, her expression calm and composed, "Auntie, I accidentally hurt my face and can no longer stay by the master's side to serve. The master returned my indenture and let me leave the house."
"Oh! Your master is so kind!" Huang was even more surprised.
As we all know, once you sell yourself into slavery, you will be a slave for life. After all, you know so many things about your master's family. Generally, the master would rather sell you than let you go, unless you have done a great favor to the master.
Not only was Su Yu released from the house, but she also stood in front of them in a pretentious manner. It must be the latter.
Han didn't hide anything and told Su Yu how she was injured.
Su Changxi's family had to praise Su Yu highly.
Han then earnestly expressed her intention, "Xiaoyu is the only one coming back from the first house, and she can only settle down in our house. I'll have to trouble you with this matter."
Su Changxi agreed without hesitation.
At this time, Su Tai asked about Su Yan who was not present.
Huang sighed, "That child is stubborn. Ever since he broke off the engagement with the Sang family, he has been locking himself in his room, and..."
Huang couldn't continue.
Su Sheng took over the conversation, "Little Sister Tai, Yan'er is obsessed with a horn and almost hanged herself on the beam with a hemp rope that day. My parents were so scared that they didn't dare to leave her alone at home. If you see her, please help her to comfort her."
Su Tai nodded and looked at Su Yu. The two sisters walked into Su Yan's boudoir hand in hand.
Su Yan originally wanted to avoid people, but unexpectedly Su Yu took the initiative to talk to her and even took off her veil.
When Su Yan saw Su Yu's wound, she was stunned and completely forgot about her emotions.
From the conversation between Su Tai and Su Yu, Su Yan learned the reason why Su Yu was injured and why she had to leave the house. She was so angry that she kept speaking up for Su Yu.
Su Tai scolded, "Look at my cousin, and then look at yourself. Why are you trying to make a fuss over such a small matter? If something really happened to you, wouldn't the Sang family be the ones who would be happy? Maybe they would even feel relieved!"
Su Yan slowly lowered her head, feeling very guilty, "Xiao Tai, I'm sorry, I just didn't think it through at the moment."
As she spoke, she looked at Su Yu's face again, made up her mind and clenched her fist, "You are right, my little thing is nothing compared to Sister Su Yu. If I really want to commit suicide, the Sang family may be even happier. I can't let them get away with it!"
Su Tai and Su Yu smiled at each other.
Su Yu put on her veil again and walked out of the room calmly and gracefully.
After Su Tai and the other two left, Su Yan came out of the house on her own, which was rare, and asked for food and drink.
The whole family breathed a sigh of relief, and Mrs. Huang cried with joy, constantly speaking well of Su Tai and Su Yu.
On the way, Su Tai told Han everything that had happened.
Han nodded to Su Yu with satisfaction. "Su Yan's matter has always been a heavy stone weighing on the hearts of the whole family. Now you use yourself to comfort Su Yan. If Su Yan really thinks it through, they will owe you a big favor. With the village chief's family here, there will definitely be no gossip about you in the village."
Su Yu nodded obediently.
After a few days, Su Yu had almost adapted to life in the Su family, and Su Chunsen came.
The father and daughter were reminiscing about the past in the house.
Su Chunsen looked at his daughter with a guilty look on his face. "How are you doing at your uncle's house? There are only two of us here. Dad wants to hear the truth."
Su Yu smiled, "Dad, my uncle's family treats me very well, and the villagers are also nice. They always say what they think, and they don't say one thing in front of you and another behind your back. To be honest, my daughter was a little uncomfortable with them at first, but she has only gotten used to it recently.
I have also learned a lot of things during this period. Dad, I think our family can also set up some business in the village."
Su Chunsen's face suddenly changed. He looked around in fear and scolded in a low voice, "Are you crazy? Don't say such things!"
From the day they sold themselves, everything they had belonged to their master, including the money they saved and the children they had. The master hated it most when his servants had second thoughts and acquired property outside the home.
Normally the master would not pursue these matters, but if they committed a crime and the master intended to punish them, if the master knew that they had purchased property outside, he would probably take their lives and take back the property.
Su Yu shook her head and soothed, "Dad, we are the only two of us here, so I dare to tell you so much. Look at my uncle's family. Although it is difficult, they are living a better life now. If possible, who would be willing to be a slave for life? It was my mother who was bewitched by those people in the mansion and always thought it was good to be a slave.
But you are a good citizen after all, you should know the difference between the two. My daughter didn’t dare to think about it before, but now that she is out, you naturally have to make careful plans for our family. "
