Chapter 58 Si Yao suffered all kinds of grievances and hid away to cry.
These are all the Emperor's people. If word gets out, will the Su family still have any face left?
How could a mother-in-law like her not even be able to control a concubine?
"Guards, drag Madam Yao out and don't let her in!" Old Madam Su was completely enraged.
When the butler brought people in.
What I saw was a tense scene between the old lady and Madam Yao.
What's going on?
Didn't the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along very well before, and work together to exclude the first wife?
How come now that the legal wife has gained power, Madam Yao has fallen out with the old lady?
The observant servants immediately understood.
Lady Yao's status in the inner quarters has declined significantly.
When they start fighting, they show no mercy.
Si Yao shook off their touch and said impatiently, "I can walk by myself!"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
She was a dignified female general, a young lady who had been loved and pampered by the Si family since childhood. She had never suffered such grievances.
As she went outside, her eyes immediately welled up with tears. She leaned against the door, and tears streamed down her face.
"Madam Yao." At this moment, a voice called out to her.
Si Yao wiped away her tears without any hesitation, feeling that she was crying openly and there was nothing to hide.
"What is it?" she asked Butler Su.
Butler Su said, "Don't cry, the eldest young master of the Si family has come to see you."
These words did offer some guidance to Si Yao.
Yes, she also has an older brother and a mother.
"I'm going to find my older brother right now." Si Yao sniffed and ran towards the outside of the courtyard.
Seeing his sister running towards him, Si Han quickly stepped forward to meet her. "Yao'er, I heard that His Majesty sent someone to treat General Su... Wait, what's wrong with you?"
Si Yao's eyes were red, as if she had just been crying.
"Big brother, I'm fine. I'm just happy for Xiao-ge."
"Really?" Si Han asked doubtfully.
Si Yao nodded, pursing her lips.
Something just doesn't look right.
Si Han's face turned cold as he looked at Butler Su. "What happened? If you don't tell me the truth, I'll break your legs."
Butler Su was very afraid of the young masters of the Si family.
So he immediately told the whole story.
Si Han was furious, "How can this old monk be so biased? He promised to give you and your husband a peace talisman, but now he's destroyed yours!"
"It's alright, it's just a simple amulet, it can't protect me much. I firmly believe that in this world, the only person a woman can protect is herself."
Si Yao comforted her older brother by putting her hand on his shoulder.
The two were just like brothers.
Si Han's eyes revealed a different kind of appreciation, "As expected of my sister. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be feeling wronged, but you are so open-minded."
But then again, it's fortunate that his younger sister is outstanding and has excellent martial arts skills.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to develop such a likable personality.
"But brother, Yao'er is also feeling wronged." Si Yao lowered her eyelids, the usually valiant heroine now carrying a faint melancholy.
This broke Si Han's heart. "Yao'er, don't be upset. Tell your big brother if you have any problems. Your big brother will always help you."
“My eldest brother can’t help me alone. My second and third brothers are all on Si He’s side. I can never go back to the Si family and be your sister again.”
Si Yao's eyes were brimming with tears, threatening to spill over, which was very heartbreaking. She continued...
"I don't care whether I can go back to the Si family. I can give up everything. I just want my three good brothers back."
As long as the three young masters of the Si family stand by her side.
How could Madam Su dare to disrespect her now?
Si Han hesitated for a moment, "Third brother is just angry, he'll be fine after a while. Second brother isn't angry with you..."
“But they’ve all protected Sihe. Even my mother-in-law has handed over the reins of the household to Sihe. Brother, I have nothing left.”
Si Yao finally couldn't hold back her tears, which fell drop by drop.
Si Han felt a pang of heartache. "No, they won't like Si He. She's just a greedy village woman with nothing..."
"Don't worry, your eldest brother will go back and persuade your second and third brothers. After a while, when things have calmed down, I will have Mother take you back."
Si Han patted his sister's shoulder, his face showing maturity and composure.
As the eldest son, his words naturally carried weight.
If he were to ask his third brother to forgive Yao'er, his third brother would not dare to disobey.
Si Yao leaned on his shoulder and nodded. Secretly, her crying expression stopped, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"We don't need that old monk's amulet. Brother will take you to Master Wufeng; his is the safest."
Si Han took Si Yao out.

On the street.
Sihe led Qingbao to the candy shop, wanting to buy Qingbao her favorite candy.
But Qingbao looked troubled and kept finding various excuses to leave.
Some shadows are etched into one's bones; in her past life, before she died, Su Mengmeng stuffed her mouth with sugar crumbs.
Even though she had served as a judge for ten years, there were still some things that made her feel very uncomfortable.
Since I'm not happy, I won't eat it to avoid affecting my mood.
Sihe was unaware of this matter, but seeing Qingbao's attitude, she had no choice but to give up.
Qingbao took out some silver from her Qiankun bag and bought her mother a nice set of jewelry at the jewelry store.
Then she skipped off and bought some sesame seed cakes and candied hawthorns, eating as she walked, her little mouth squinting with satisfaction.
"Mommy, look how many people are up ahead! Let's go take a look." Seeing the lively scene ahead, Qingbao tugged at Sihe's little hand.
He ran over there excitedly.
The small figure pushed through the crowd and found a disheveled boy kneeling in the middle, who was only five or six years old.
Beside him lay a woman, who was beaten to the point of near death and covered in wounds.
The man with the whip spat at the ground and shouted, "This mother and child are new arrivals! The older one is fifty taels, the younger one is one hundred taels!"
These words were spoken.
The crowd exclaimed in surprise, "Who are you selling? How dare you charge such a high price?"
"Exactly, why are the smaller ones more than twice as expensive as the larger ones?"
The slave trader grinned wickedly and lashed out at the woman.
tear--
Her clothes were instantly torn, revealing her fair and flawless skin.
The men were completely stunned.
"A woman like that, marrying her and having ten children wouldn't be a problem, isn't she worth fifty taels?"
"It's worth it, absolutely worth it!" Many men looked on with longing, their mouths practically watering.
Such smooth, creamy skin is certainly not something an ordinary woman or maid could possess.
"I want this woman." Qingbao walked up to the woman, waved her small hand, and held up a fifty-tael silver note.
The human trafficker looked left and right, but couldn't see anyone.
"Who is it? Who is speaking? Who said they wanted it?"
