Upon hearing this, Su Jingnian hurriedly said, "Mother, let's send someone to teach her a lesson!"
Jiang Caiping shook her head, walked slowly into the hall and sat down, "I want to see what she can do!"
Su Jingnian was stunned for a moment, then caught up with Jiang Caiping, "Mother, this matter is different from the past. You can't protect her anymore, or she will kill Zhiyao!"
Su Chengjiang also hurried forward and said, "Mother, look at Su Jinyue's behavior. If we continue to indulge her, something bad will happen to our mansion sooner or later!"
"Father is still at the border, mother! You have to make the decision!"
"Okay." Jiang Caiping frowned and interrupted the quarrel between the two brothers, "You go back first, I know what to do."
Su Chengjiang and Su Jingnian looked at each other and had no choice but to leave.
After the two brothers left, Jiang Caiping called her trusted nanny and whispered, "Go find someone right now, quietly..."
The nanny agreed repeatedly and went out of the yard.
Su Chengjiang returned to the room and sat down irritably, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles crackled.
Su Jingnian stood outside the door and sighed softly.
"Young Master."
Madam Su's personal servant came running over in a hurry, "The old lady wants you to come over!"
Su Jingnian raised his eyebrows. What did his grandmother suddenly ask him to do?
Could it be because of Su Jinyue?
Thinking of this, Su Jingnian felt a bad feeling rising in his heart, and he quickened his pace and rushed towards the front yard!
Old Madam Su was sitting in the hall, her brows full of worry. When she saw Su Jingnian coming, she nodded slightly and motioned him to sit down.
"Jingnian, do you know that the eunuch next to the virtuous concubine in the palace came to the mansion today?"
Su Jingnian nodded, his expression complicated: "Just now, Concubine Xian asked the eunuch beside her to reward Su Jinyue."
"I always feel that Jin Yue has become a little unpredictable." Old Madam Su gently stroked the Buddhist beads in her hand, her eyes deep, as if she was thinking about some important decision.
Su Jingnian frowned and nodded, "Grandma, I think so too!"
"It's not that I'm biased, but what Jin Yue did after returning home this time was indeed very different from before." Su Jingniu paused and said, "Since she was able to cure the princess's illness, she should be rewarded and should bring Zhiyao back! She was so cruel that she kept Zhiyao in the palace!"
"She doesn't take the Marquis' Mansion seriously now. Grandmother, are we going to tolerate her?"
Madam Su sighed, her eyes kind and deep, "Jingnian, Jinyue has been away from home since she was young, and her experience is different from yours, but no matter what, she has the blood of the Su family, and we can't just leave her alone."
Su Jingnian was shocked. His grandmother's words made him realize the other side of the problem. He quickly said, "Grandson understands. No matter what, maintaining the family's reputation is the most important thing. But, how do you think we should deal with Jin Yue's behavior?"
Madam Su narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Jingnian, "I have already written a letter to your father, asking him to take the opportunity to return to the capital as soon as possible. When your father comes back, he will deal with Jin Yue. This is in line with the rules of the Marquisate!"
Su Jingnian said: "But my father won't allow me to come back. If I come back at this time, I will definitely be punished by the emperor!"
"I can't care about that anymore!" Old Lady Su said, "If your father doesn't come back, will your sister still be able to get married?!"
Su Jingnian was also quite smart. He rolled his eyes and said, "Grandma, let me leave this matter to you."
"You must not be reckless either."
Madam Su spoke slowly, her eyes stern, "Su Jinyue is your father's legitimate daughter after all. Don't do anything radical unless it is absolutely necessary."
Su Jingnian's eyes darkened when he heard this, "Yes, grandson understands."
"But..." Madam Su changed the subject, her eyes flashing with deep meaning, "The change in Jin Yue has reminded me that the future of the Marquis' Mansion must be firmly in the hands of my Su family!"
"Go and do one thing. Investigate secretly for me to see if Jin Yue has any secrets that we don't know about, and why there has been such a big change." Old Madam Su said in a deep voice, her tone full of unquestionable decisiveness.
"Yes, grandma and grandson understand." Su Jingnian said.
On the other side, Su Jinyue was sorting out the rewards from the palace in the house.
Xiaotao helped on the side, and the two of them occasionally chatted with each other. The atmosphere seemed harmonious and peaceful.
"Miss, look at these jewels, each one is priceless." Xiao Tao picked up a finely carved jade pendant, her eyes full of amazement.
"These are all external things." Su Jinyue smiled faintly, without any emotion in her eyes.
Xiao Tao asked Su Jinyue carefully, "Are these all the rewards sent by the Concubine Xian, or are they all kept in the small storeroom?"
Su Jinyue stopped her hand, looked at the jewels and said, "No need, just put them in my room."
"Yes, miss."
The mansion was peaceful these days. Before Su Zhiyao came back, they did not cause trouble for Su Jinyue again.
It was not until Su Zhiyao was sent out of the palace that Jiang Caiping brought her two sons out to greet her.
Su Zhiyao got off the carriage with a pale face. As soon as she saw Jiang Caiping, she immediately threw herself into her arms sobbing.
"Mother! My daughter almost couldn't see you anymore!"
Su Jinyue's eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and she looked pitiful.
She lay in Jiang Caiping's arms, feeling more and more aggrieved and crying heartbrokenly!
This look is so pitiful, especially for men, who even want to pick the stars in the sky and give them to her.
Jiang Caiping quickly comforted her daughter, "Don't cry, you've suffered, Zhiyao!"
Jiang Jingnian was heartbroken watching from the side, and couldn't help but raise his hand to touch the top of Su Zhiyao's head, "Zhiyao, you have suffered, it's all the fault of Su Jinyue..."
He saw Jiang Caiping's eyes and fell silent without finishing his words.
Su Zhiyao looked at Jiang Caiping while crying, "Mother, please don't blame my sister."
Su Chengjiang was anxious, "Sister! Why are you still speaking for her now!"
"She left the palace alone without caring about your life or death!"
"Enough!" Jiang Caiping stopped Su Chengjiang coldly.
"Mother!" Su Chengjiang was anxious.
"Shut up!" Jiang Caiping glared at Su Chengjiang, and Su Jingnian immediately grabbed him when he saw this.
Su Jingnian protected Su Zhiyao, and the two of them helped her over, "Mother, my sister needs to rest after coming back, so leave her to me."
Jiang Caiping was really tired, so she waved her hand and said, "Take your sister back to rest."
"I understand, mother."
Su Jingnian took Su Zhiyao away.
Su Chengjiang chased after her, "Sister, why did you stop me just now? You should have let mother deal with that bitch!"
