Chapter 213 Sister, I understand how hard it was for you to miss your sister-in-law.
Su Linhan nodded immediately: "Well, we haven't met, but yesterday my third sister saw a nice ginseng at Yongchang Medicinal Herbs and said she must give it to my eldest sister. She also asked me for a poem. When my fourth brother went to look for her, he met her at that time. He said she was a good-looking girl from Raojiang who looked light and free."
Su Changan thought of the girl Youli in his mind, so he looked at Maomao.
Maomao and Yan Ruyu were sitting on the other side of the room.
If we talk about the girl from Raojiang, and it was yesterday, it can only be Youli.
Su Liushi saw Su Changan like this, so she asked, "Does Changan know him?"
Su Changan nodded: "It should be Youli. Maomao is very familiar with her. I haven't had much contact with her, but she seems to be a very generous and decent girl today."
When Su Zhang heard this, she immediately looked at Su Changan, but stopped talking.
Su Changan saw it and smiled.
Although Su Zhang despised her silly boy who had made so much money, she felt that he was very useless for slapping her in the face for a girl she had just met. Moreover, Su Liheng often angered Su Zhang.
But in fact, Su Liheng was particularly good to Su Zhang.
Su Changan had heard from Su Zifeng that once Su Zifeng accidentally touched a maid's hand, which was actually nothing wrong. However, it happened that Su Zifeng and Su Zhang had a quarrel in those days, and when Su Liheng saw that scene, he immediately rushed up and yelled at Su Zifeng.
Although he got beaten in the end.
But Su Liheng didn't regret it at all, because he was venting his mother's anger. But later Su Liheng also apologized to Su Zifeng.
so.
It was about how Su Zhang had been telling outsiders about her son's shortcomings in this and that, and how she felt that Su Liheng had no future and was obsessed with money all day long.
But apart from the Su family members themselves, if anyone else dared to say anything bad about Su Liheng, Su Zhang, as his mother, would be the first to rush out to argue!
Especially when this girl suddenly appears and makes the son, who only cares about money and has no idea what a woman is, suddenly become so obsessed with her, especially when this girl is a girl he has only met once.
How could Su Zhang not be interested? After all, a girl came out to snatch her son away!
Yu Su Zhang couldn't help but ask, "Big girl, this girl from Raojiang came here. Is her family in the medicinal materials business?"
Su Changan shook his head: "That's not the case. She is actually a doctor. She is a girl from an ordinary village in Raojiang. She followed her family elders to the capital to find Mr. Zhang Wenjing."
Physician.
This made Su Zhang feel relieved. Since he was a doctor, he must have good intentions. At least her silly son would not be deceived.
Especially since the eldest girl said she was looking for Mr. Zhang Wenjing, she should be a girl with good medical skills.
Su Zhang was originally from a merchant family, so she didn't care about being well-matched. After all, when she married Su Zifeng, her family was not as wealthy as it is now, but just a small merchant.
As for the origin of Raojiang.
Su Zhang didn't care about this either.
But I’m afraid we won’t be able to get along with each other.
Su Liu watched Su Zhang fall into deep thought. She could guess what her sister-in-law was thinking, so she smiled and said, "Why are you thinking about these things? The two children have only met once, and there is no sign of their relationship yet! And Li Heng, that idiot, is so good. If it really happened, why wouldn't he bring him to see you right away?"
Hearing what Su Liu said, Su Zhang smiled awkwardly.
Su Wan'er didn't quite understand what was being said.
But Su Linhan joked, "Mom, Third Aunt is worried that Li Heng has been deceived by the girl, and she is even more worried that someone has entered Li Heng's heart and taken her place."
Hearing this, Su Liu immediately laughed and scolded: "Stinky girl, what are you talking about!"
Su Linhan chuckled.
Su Liu smiled and glared at Su Linhan in reproach.
Su Changan looked at the people in the room and smiled helplessly. However, when he mentioned Zhang Wenjing, he immediately looked at Su Liushi: "Mother, yesterday I invited Mr. Zhang to come to the house to check your pulse and the health of you, Third Aunt, and Third Uncle. He must be busy these days. He will come over when he is free in some time. By then, father and grandfather should have finished marking the papers in the Imperial Examination Hall, so it's a good time for us to take a look together."
Su Liu looked at Su Changan and said, "He came last night and checked our pulses. We are all fine. I also learned about your situation from him, so I came to the palace to see you early in the morning."
When Su Changan heard this, he was a little surprised at Zhang Wenjing's efficiency, but he didn't think much about it.
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
Then he saw Su Zhaoxin running towards Su Changan with a wronged look on his face.
But before he came over, Su Changan immediately said, "If you dare to come over, I will immediately become allergic to you."
Hearing this, Su Zhaoxin was stunned.
Su Wan'er was smart. After jumping off Su Chang'an's legs, she drove Su Zhaoxin away.
Su Zhaoxin's face twisted into a knot, and then he had no choice but to run into Su Liu's arms to grieve alone, thinking about the fact that the whole world was against him.
Su Qingning returned to her shy look again. After smiling at Su Changan, she immediately didn't dare to look at him again.
Su Changan smiled helplessly.
Su Liu rubbed Su Zhaoxin's head, then glanced at Su Linhan, and as if remembering something, she looked at Su Changan and asked, "Changan, among the candidates for the imperial examination this time, is there anyone who is suitable for Linhan?"
Su Changan was a little surprised to hear this.
Su Linhan immediately said, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Su Liu immediately glared at Su Linhan, then looked at Su Changan and said, "You are already quite old. I heard from your father that there is a child named Yan Shu in this imperial examination. Although he is from a poor family, he is very talented. Even your grandfather said that the next Imperial College Master after Xun Siye will be Yan Shu, if nothing unexpected happens."
Su Linhan had an anxious look on her face. Although she didn't say anything, she was looking at Su Changan with a look of help.
Su Changan smiled helplessly, and then said: "Mother, there are indeed many good people among the students. I think Yan Shu is also good. Besides him, there are Li Wei, Wei Anming, Wei Zijian and so on."
Hearing Su Changan say this, Su Linhan became anxious.
I wonder why my eldest sister would help my mother say such things!
Su Liu was also looking at Su Changan with joy.
Su Changan glanced at Su Linhan's reproachful eyes, smiled, then looked at Su Liushi and said, "However, mother, love is free, men and women are in love, and it is not appropriate for others to interfere. Moreover, if there is no love, it will be difficult to live together in the future. Even if you are respectful to each other, it doesn't matter. When two people love each other, they should be passionate. You and Dad, as well as Third Aunt and Third Uncle, although you occasionally quarrel, aren't you full of passion for each other most of the time?"
"Besides, these things are not something that can be rushed. Linhan is now focused on her studies. If she passes the imperial examination this time, her career will just begin. There is no time to rush. Besides, with Linhan's conditions, are you worried that there won't be someone who is suitable for her?"
Hearing Su Changan's words, Su Liu was stunned for a moment, blushed slightly, glared at Su Changan, and scolded with a smile: "Linhan learned how to tease elders from you!"
But as she said this, Su Liu thought that there was definitely no passion between them and Su Zimu, that blockhead, after all, he was already so old.
but.
That wooden lump would occasionally say some flirtatious words, and Su Liushi felt even more embarrassed when she thought about the content of those words.
Even Third Aunt Su Zhang, who was lying down with a gunshot wound, looked at Su Changan with a reproachful look.
Su Linhan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she had wrongly blamed her elder sister, but.
Freedom to love?
What a strange word, but it seems to make sense.
Su Qingning on the side looked at Su Changan in surprise. She naturally felt that what Su Changan had just said made a lot of sense.
But when I heard the term "freedom of love", I felt it was very fresh.
Seeing Su Changan teasing his elders like this, it seems that the elder sister is indeed as kind as the rumors say.
But looking at Su Changan, he sighed in his heart. The second sister was already so outstanding, and now the eldest sister was even more outstanding. He was worried to death. When his father came back and saw the second sister in person, he would lecture him again.
Su Changan didn't mind talking about freedom in love. After all, it would have been impossible in his previous life. But in this world, men and women are equal. Although many wealthy families are still helpless, it is much better here in the Su family.
Su Wan'er blinked and asked, "So, is this the freedom of love between Big Sister and His Majesty?"
Su Changan heard it, smiled, looked down at Su Wan'er and nodded: "Yes."
Su Liushi immediately said, "Don't say such things."
Su Wan'er nodded. Although she didn't understand why she couldn't say it, she would definitely not dare to say it in the past. But after seeing His Majesty several times, she felt that His Majesty was a very close person.
It just gives people a scary feeling, but when you actually talk, it's exceptionally good.
Mrs. Su Liu looked at Su Linhan's thoughtful expression, sighed and said, "She's not young anymore, and she doesn't think about these things. Cui Yu'er from the Cui family doesn't seem to care about these things either. Her mother and I often talk about them, and we're worried."
However, Mrs. Su Liu was not the kind of woman who was nagging, and she also felt that what Su Changan said made sense.
Although the words "freedom to love" are a bit strange, the truth is correct.
So he didn't say much, just looked at Su Changan and said, "You kids just chat here, your third aunt and I will go to see how the kitchen is preparing. Let's eat here today and then go back. Is it okay with His Majesty?"
Su Changan shook his head: "It's okay, at worst I can go back and have another meal with her. Besides, I was kicked out too, and if I go back too early, she might not be happy."
Hearing that he was kicked out, Su Liu couldn't help but look at Su Changan with some worry.
Su Changan immediately realized that Su Liushi had misunderstood, so he explained: "Your daughter-in-law disliked me seducing her around her, and she couldn't handle the government affairs with peace of mind, so she drove me out."
Hearing this, Su Liushi immediately understood that the young couple was playing again! She was also relieved.
But at the same time, hearing Su Changan's nonsense again, he immediately said, "Don't be so presumptuous."
After saying that, he smiled, knowing that the couple's behavior proved that they were in love. He felt relieved, patted Su Zhaoxin's head and said, "Go call your fourth brother over. Your eldest sister finally came back once, why is she hiding away?"
Su Zhaoxin heard this and nodded immediately, saying confidently: "Okay, even if it takes a while, I will drag it here."
After saying that, he ran out of the room.
Mrs. Su Liu looked at Su Zhaoxin's back with a helpless smile, then looked at Su Changan: "Okay, you guys just chat here, it's warm in the room, don't get sick from the cold air when you go out."
Hearing this
Su Changan stood up and bowed to Su Liu and Su Zhang.
The same was true for Su Linhan and Su Wan'er.
When Su Qingning saw this, she quickly clasped her fists and saluted.
When Su Liu saw this, she was glad that Su Chang'an taught his sisters by example. After smiling knowingly, she left with Su Zhang.
After the two of them left, Su Linhan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My mother has been thinking about finding a husband for me these days because she has heard other people talking about the matter of catching a son-in-law under the list."
But after thinking about it, Su Linhan smiled and said, "But if you really want to arrange a marriage for me, big sister must save me."
Su Changan nodded: "Well, even if mother doesn't listen to me, there is still your sister-in-law."
Hearing this, Su Linhan smiled brightly, and immediately opened the [Liao Zhai] that Su Changan brought on the table and asked, "Sister, have you finished writing it all?"
Su Changan nodded.
Su Linhan had read Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio before she entered the palace, and she liked it very much. However, she had been holding back and said that she would wait until the book was finished before reading it, because it was too painful to wait for Dream of the Red Chamber every day.
So when she saw Su Changan nod, she looked at Su Qingning with joy and said to Su Changan, "Eldest sister doesn't know yet, but when Qingning came back yesterday, she kept asking about you, especially after she knew about your talent and fame in the capital, she kept asking me if her carelessness would make you angry or something like that."
When Su Qingning heard this and looked at Su Changan smiling at her, her face suddenly turned red and she immediately said, "Second sister!"
When Su Wan'er saw Su Qingning like this, she also looked at Su Chang'an and said, "Third sister was thinking about reciting a few poems yesterday, but she fell asleep while reciting."
Hearing that even Su Wan'er was like this, Su Qingning's face suddenly turned redder. After glaring at Su Wan'er, she didn't dare to look at Su Chang'an.
Seeing Su Qingning, who is usually carefree, like this, Su Linhan and Su Wan'er immediately giggled.
Su Linhan had been bullied by Su Qingning many times in the past, and now that she had finally found an opportunity, she would naturally not let it go, especially since her elder sister was here.
Su Linhan no longer had to put on some airs as an older sister in front of her brothers and sisters as she did in the past, so she looked at Su Changan and said, "Sister, you don't know, last night she read the first few chapters of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio that you sent me, and she was fascinated by them. She said they were much better than Dream of the Red Chamber."
Su Wan'er echoed, "Big sister, let me tell you, last night we were chatting in Yimei Courtyard and mentioned Liao Zhai, and then the second sister talked about the story of A Bao, and the third sister, she obviously liked it very much, but she pretended not to like it. But at night, she secretly took the manuscript you brought to the second sister to read, and after reading it, she secretly wiped away tears. I saw it, and she said it was just sandstorms at night, and she was not moved to tears by A Bao."
Su Qingning listened to the two sisters constantly telling their embarrassing stories to the older sister whom she met for the first time, but she inexplicably admired her.
Su Qingning could no longer pretend to be a lady, she glared at Su Wan'er and said, "Su Wan'er! Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you start practicing sword skills!!"
Su Wan'er snorted, then ran to Su Chang'an, grabbed Su Chang'an's arm and said, "I'm not afraid of you! Second sister is not afraid of you either, and the eldest sister will be the one to administer justice!"
Su Linhan smiled and nodded seriously: "That's right."
Su Qingning bit her lower lip and felt even more embarrassed when she saw Su Changan smiling at her.
I originally wanted to leave a good impression, but ended up embarrassing myself!
But at this time.
With a click, the door opened.
However, it was Su Zhaoxin who came back in high spirits, and behind him came Su Liheng, whose face was red and swollen.
When Su Changan saw this, he was also shocked. He really regretted beating himself like this.
When Su Linhan saw that Su Liheng didn't come in, she immediately scolded him, "Come in quickly. It's cold outside, and the cold air will get in and make Big Sister's illness worse."
Hearing this, Su Liheng hurried in and closed the door.
After walking in, Su Liheng looked at Su Changan a little embarrassedly and bowed, then hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Sister, I understand how painful it was for you when you wrote that poem about missing someone. How did you endure the pain of missing our sister-in-law?"
Su Changan was stunned: "Ah?"
Su Liheng was sitting on a stool with a sad face. After sighing, he took out a red bean and said, "Red beans grow in the south, and they sprout in spring. I hope you can pick more of them, as they are the best for expressing lovesickness. It's really well written. If you don't have some emotional experience, you really can't feel it. No wonder people on the street call you the fairy poet, because of this poem, you are a god in my heart. Oh~~~"
As he said this, Su Liheng's swollen face was full of sadness again. He stared at the red beans in his hand and sighed again: "It's really well written."
After saying this, Su Liheng immediately looked aggrieved, and then.
With a snap!
But he slapped himself in the face again, and then cursed: "Why was I such a coward yesterday! Why didn't I tell him I liked you?!"
After this slap, not only Su Changan and the others, but even Yan Ruyu and Maomao on the other side were shocked.
Who would slap themselves in the face so hard?
Seeing Su Liheng like this, Su Qingning immediately said, "Su Liheng, you want to be slapped, tell me if you can. I see you are so useless, I really want to slap you!"
Su Liheng glanced at Su Qingning and waved his hand: "Go away, what do you know? You don't even know what love is or what lovesickness is. Only my eldest sister in this room can understand me, right?"
At the end of his speech, Su Liheng looked at Su Changan.
Su Changan shook his head: "Don't bring me up. I don't slap myself. Only your sister-in-law will bite me occasionally."
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned. Would His Majesty bite the eldest sister?
Immediately, everyone became curious.
However, Su Changan explained disapprovingly: "Because of love, your sister-in-law loves me too much."
After saying this, Su Changan looked at Su Liheng and said, "You are attracted to You Li, right?"
When Su Liheng heard the name, he was no longer curious about what happened before. Instead, he looked straight at Su Changan and nodded: "How do you know the name?"
Su Changan glanced at Maomao and said, "Your sister Mao'er is her friend."
Su Liheng blinked when he heard it, and then suddenly became alert.
but
At this moment, the voice of a maid came from the door.
"Empress, someone has come from the palace and said that His Majesty wants to pass something on to you."
