Chapter 96 Changes
"Ah Shun!"
"Qingshan!! You are here."
The two brothers hugged each other, and Ah Shun's eyes inexplicably turned red.
"Why are you crying, kid?"
"Why did I cry? The wind blew my eyes." Ah Shun said stubbornly, turned his head and wiped his eyes.
Qingshan put his arm around his shoulders and praised him, "Not bad, there is no chaos even with so many refugees, and the porridge stall is in good order! When the prince comes back, I will definitely praise you in front of him."
Ah Shun's lips were pursed into a long line, his shoulders drooped, and he looked really tired. "This is much more troublesome than practicing martial arts. Come on, I'll leave it all to you. I'm going to catch up on some sleep."
“Really?!”
"Brother, those who are capable should do more work. Thank you for your hard work."
Since he was a child, Ah Shun hated these clerical tasks and wished he could practice martial arts every day. If the prince had not sent his eldest and second brothers away, Ah Shun, the fourth brother, would not have to take on the responsibility.
"You sleep for a while. I'll call you for dinner in the evening."
"Okay, got it."
On the other side, Su Chengnan was paying his respects to Han in the carriage.
Han's old injuries had not yet healed, and he had new injuries. Mi Feng helped to re-treat the wound, took her pulse, wrote a new prescription and asked someone to boil the medicine. Nanny Han and Chunyu also caught a cold, but the child was well taken care of by them and is healthy.
"You guys should take a good rest for two days first. I'll ask Nianqiu to come and help take care of mother. Leave your younger brother to me." Su Linhua said.
"That won't work." Nanny Han shook her head.
"It's all right. With my elder sister here at the porridge shed, nothing can go wrong. It's not difficult to cook porridge, so I don't need you. You guys should take care of yourself quickly. When you set out again, I'm afraid the journey will be difficult."
Su Chengnan nodded, "Go ahead, take a good rest. Once you have enough energy, your mother and brother will need your care later."
Now when she spoke in front of the Su family, the servants all obeyed her. Nanny Han and the other two did not dare to refute her, so they had to get off the carriage obediently and go to the next carriage to catch up on their sleep.
"Mom, just relax and get some sleep. Everything will be fine with me here."
"Yeah." Han had been worried all the way, but now that she saw her, she felt relieved. She patted her hands and said, "Nan'er, thank you for your hard work."
Su Chengnan smiled and said, "What are you talking about, mother? We are all family, and whatever I do is my duty. Go to sleep."
After a while, when she fell asleep, Su Chengnan got off the car to see Su Yutong and the others.
The servants in Luo City left the city in time, and as they had not dared to rest for two days and two nights, they managed to catch up with the team. However, among the prince's guard of honor, they kept their identities low-key and had little sense of existence.
"Eldest sister!"
"Eldest sister, I finally see you, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Are you and your aunts all right?"
"Everything is fine." Su Mingyu straightened his chest and spoke first.
Compared to the beginning, this child not only seems to be braver, but also has begun to take responsibility.
"Yes, the two brothers take good care of us, and we are all fine." Su Yutong tilted her head back, her voice crisp and very cute.
Su Chengnan touched her head and said, "That's good."
"Sister, who is the child who came back with you? I think he speaks very interestingly. Can we play with him?" Su Mingmin asked.
After he finished speaking, Su Mingyu glanced at him, then looked at Su Chengnan with some anticipation.
Su Chengnan looked at them meaningfully and asked, "Tell me the truth, do you want to play with him, or are you attracted to his husband?"
The two young men blushed, "We have learned the poem that the gentleman just recited in the mansion. But the teachers at that time were not able to tell such a long story like him..."
"So your real interest is not in wine, but in Mr. Sun. You want to study, right?"
Su Mingyu coughed lightly and nodded: "That's right! We want to study! Not only do we need to practice Kung Fu, we also need to study! We asked Uncle Fu, if we want to overturn Dad's case, we must take the imperial examination. Although this is difficult, we also want to give it a try."
Su Chengnan was very surprised that they actually thought this way! For a moment, she couldn't help but be moved. She must tell Su Weimin these words and let him see how outstanding her good son is.
"Good kids! This Mr. Sun is an old friend of Dad. He will come with us in the future. I will take you to meet him later. Whether he is willing to accept you as his disciple depends on you."
"Yes! My brother will never embarrass my elder sister."
"What happens to you has nothing to do with me. Just don't embarrass yourself. You have to earn your own face, okay?"
"I know! Then let's go wash up and change into clean clothes."
"Well, go ahead."
After everyone left, Su Chengnan squatted down and hugged Su Yutong into his arms, and asked her softly: "Tell my elder sister, does Aunt Chen still beat you and scold you for no reason?"
Su Yutong was stunned, her eyes suddenly turned red, and then she shook her head: "No, Auntie treats Tong'er very well, she...she didn't."
Su Chengnan was such a smart person. The bruise on the child's sleeve and her expression had already told her the truth. She hugged her and gave her a candy. "Go ahead. Your second sister just called you. Go find her."
"Second sister is calling me? Okay, I'll go now."
"Um."
Su Chengnan watched the little girl running away, and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared. She called Aunt Chen down from the carriage with a cold face.
"Miss, are you looking for me?" Aunt Chen bowed.
"Have I ever warned you not to hit or scold the child?" Su Chengnan glared at him, his voice tinged with frost.
Aunt Chen shuddered, feeling a little scared from the bottom of her heart, "I... the child was disobedient, so I said a few more words."
"It was just a few words. Why are her wrists bruised? Don't tell me she fell or pinched herself."
"I..." Her knees weakened and she knelt down, "Miss, I, I, I am guilty, I can't control myself, I won't do it again in the future."
Su Chengnan took a step forward and stepped directly on her hand. "Does it hurt?"
hiss--
Aunt Chen took a breath and said, "No...it doesn't hurt."
Su Chengnan's face darkened, and he crushed her several times with his feet. "Remember this feeling. If you hit her, she will only feel more pain than this. Since you gave birth to her, treat her well, otherwise..."
"Yes, yes, yes! I get it. I really won't dare to do it again in the future." Aunt Chen trembled.
It was indeed difficult for her to control her emotions. Whenever she was punished by the Madam, she could not help but vent her anger on Su Yutong. She complained more than once why she was not allowed to give birth to a boy. If she had a son, perhaps the Madam would treat her better and life would not be so difficult.
But now, I don’t know how this girl Tong’er won the favor of the eldest lady, and she has warned me for her more than once. Aunt Chen couldn't explain why she didn't even have the courage to look at Su Chengnan when she faced him now. She was afraid that she would be kicked out of the team by the eldest lady if she was not careful. She knew that Su Chengnan could really do it.
And Su Chengnan seems to have a kind of magic. Everyone around her will agree with what she wants to do...
For example, if she said that the porridge in the porridge stall was too watery and asked them to add more rice, would those people really not say anything and just open a bag of rice and pour it into the pot? !
The guards at Ningyuan Palace are really weird. They are simply treating Su Chengnan like... a master?
She couldn't understand why.
She just felt that the current Su Chengnan was no longer the woman who used to stay in her boudoir all day to recuperate.
She couldn't afford to offend him, so she had to be nicer to Su Yutong in the future...
