Chapter 465: Peaceful Years (Part 2)
Su Yi had just returned to the room. The yard was decorated very festively, which formed a sharp contrast with the usual elegant and simple style.
He doesn't like bright colors, but at this moment, he thinks these reds are the most beautiful colors in the world.
Luo Xizhu has a light-colored appearance, and now she looks very charming with red makeup on. The crimson cinnabar at the end of her eyes and her watery eyes filled with mist make her eyes look like they have several layers of charm.
Compared to Su Mu, Su Yi is actually the true ascetic handsome guy.
Luo Xizhu looked at him with her watery eyes and blushed. Only he knew that his darling wife was a little crybaby.
In their daily interactions, he always liked to tease her, and he would only stop when she was so angry that she was going crazy.
Tonight, he also wanted to make her cry...
When Su Yi was in Xiangzhou, Luo Xizhu liked to secretly watch him every time he visited Mr. Qi'an.
At that time, she was still very young, and the little girl always liked to look at him with a pair of innocent eyes. From then on, he found it very interesting.
He always teased her and made her cry several times. She went to her father to complain, but Master Qi An said she was unruly.
Later, she came to Kyoto and took the initiative to follow him. Only then did he understand her feelings and follow his heart.
He held her hand, pulled her into his arms, held her quietly, and kissed her forehead from time to time.
"Brother Yi, I'm really happy today. I finally get to marry you."
The little girl's voice was soft and sticky, like a feather gently tickling his heart.
The dragon and phoenix candles in the room burned all night, their flames illuminating two entangled figures behind the bright red mandarin duck curtains. It was a night of enchantment...
…
After Su Yi's wedding, Su Chen immediately went to Prince Xiang's Mansion with the betrothal gifts to propose marriage.
The betrothal gift he gave to the princess certainly couldn't be too shabby, but little did he know that the dowry prepared by the palace for the princess was extremely rich.
They are all old fathers who dote on their daughters and regard their daughters as more important than anything else. The royal palace has accumulated wealth for most of their lives, and that is not just talk.
But Jiacheng is a princess. Logically, they should set up their own residence after getting married. However, Jiacheng said that she just loves the hustle and bustle and is happy to live with the whole Su family and is unwilling to set up her own residence.
If the Su family were not composed of kind people from top to bottom, the prince and princess would probably not agree.
Because of this, they knew that their daughter would not be wronged after marrying into the family, so they agreed to let her not set up a residence outside the family.
On the day when Su Chen went to propose marriage, Su's mother found Mimi and said to her:
"Mimi, you are the savior of our Achen. I've wronged you for so long. Achen has already asked for mercy from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to release you from slavery. From now on, you will be a good citizen. Here are five hundred taels of silver notes and a document proving your identity from the Jin Kingdom. From now on, you will be a real citizen of the Jin Kingdom. With this document, no one will dare to bully you. Take these silver notes and leave the house. Find a place you like, start a small business, marry a good man and live a good life!"
Mimi looked at the banknotes and identity documents in the box, and looked at Su's mother in a daze.
"Old Madam, Mimi doesn't feel wronged. It was you who gave me shelter, and I am very happy here."
When she heard that Su Chen had prayed for mercy for her and freed her from slavery, she was undoubtedly very moved. But when she thought about it, she realized that he really only regarded her as his savior and was repaying her to the best of his ability.
Now, he is about to marry the princess. They are a perfect match, both talented and beautiful, and she is not worthy of him in any way.
Originally, she had never thought about leaving the Su Mansion. She just wanted to live a quiet life here and pray for him after his death, praying that he would be happy in this life and have many children and grandchildren.
But I didn't expect that he still wanted to leave by himself.
In fact, it was Jiang Yu who reminded Su Chen, and it was Su Wan who asked Jiang Yu to say it.
Su Wan knew that Mimi liked Su Chen, but now Jiajia was about to marry him, and Mimi had always been uneasy in her heart. After all, the connection between her and Su Chen was really hard to explain.
It is not appropriate for Mimi to continue staying in the Su Mansion. When one person likes another person, you will not be able to control yourself to appear in front of him. Over time, it will be a burden to all three of them. Su Chen cannot say anything to her because she is his savior. Jia Jia can't say anything either. It will be very uncomfortable to watch her longing for her man every day.
Girls are selfish in this regard. Although they don’t say it, they still care about it in their hearts.
As Jia Jia's good sister, Su Wan couldn't bring herself to speak up about this matter, so she had to step in.
Send Mimi out of the house, remove her slave status, and let her find a meaningful life on her own, instead of living a mediocre life with an impossible person.
In this way, she gained freedom and the right to pursue other happiness, and it was also considered that she had repaid Su Chen for saving her life.
"Miss Mimi, you are still young. Listen to my advice. There is a wider and more beautiful world out there. When you have some peace and happiness in the future, you will eventually understand what you want."
Su's mother patiently advised her, and she was always gentle and polite. The servants in the mansion all respected her as an old lady.
Mimi finally accepted these arrangements. Su's mother asked someone to prepare a few decent sets of clothes and some daily jewelry for her, and personally sent her out of the house.
From now on, the sky is high and the sea is vast, you can fly freely.
Arriving at the gate of the Su Mansion, Mimi looked up at the sky outside. It was no longer like the kitchen of the Su Mansion, where she could only see the sky in all directions.
She actually wanted to thank Su Chen in person, but he must be very happy today and would not think of her.
So, Mimi knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Su's mother.
"Mimi thanks the Su family for their kindness in giving me a new life. I will pray for you every day. Thank you, General Su, too."
There are always regrets in life, and Mimi’s regret is that she cannot express her love to Su Chen.
In fact, she is also a good girl and a very smart girl, otherwise she would not be alive today.
Although she was freed from slavery, the slave mark on her body could not be removed. Prisoners of war like them were supposed to have slave marks stamped on their foreheads, letting everyone know at a glance that they were prisoners of war and were even lower than ordinary slaves.
Thanks to Su Chen's help, he felt that girls all love beauty. He thought of his sister at the time. If she had such a shameful scar on her face, it would probably cause considerable harm to her for the rest of her life, right?
So he took the trouble to smooth things over, and the slave seal was finally stamped on her collarbone.
In fact, Su Chen just wanted to help her more because he saved her life. However, this care made Mimi misunderstand and she mistakenly thought that Su Chen had feelings for her.
