"Miss, aren't you giving the eldest young master and the third young lady a chance to show off?" Zhenzhu said indignantly as she watched Su Yihui's receding back.
Su Qingyu smiled, "To be in the spotlight? It's impossible for Su Yuankai to be in the spotlight. He can't even see Elder Xu."
Zhenzhu was confused. "How could that be? Aren't our two families relatives by marriage? As you said, the eldest young master is the eldest brother-in-law of Young Master Xu Liu."
Su Qingyu walked towards the Bishui Pavilion and continued, "It's true that they are relatives, but Young Master Xu Liu himself has no status in the Xu family, so how could his in-laws have such a big reputation?"
"Lord Xu has seven sons and eighteen grandsons. Xu Liangping is not only a bastard, but also has no talent. How could Lord Xu take him seriously?"
"Besides, how could the people from the Dali Temple dare to arrest my father without the instruction of Lord Xu?"
If someone else had instructed this, it would have been disrespectful to Lord Xu. But if Lord Xu had supervised this, it would have been impartial and put the interests of the country above personal interests.
Now is a special period when disaster relief has just begun. Lord Xu will not cause the emperor's dissatisfaction for Su Chengye.
Exchanging an unfavored illegitimate grandson and father-in-law for a good reputation is definitely a good deal.
In the following days, Su Yuankai kept saying that he was still in discussions with the Xu family. However, as far as Su Qingyu knew, he hadn't even entered the Xu family's gate.
That day, Old Madam Shen suddenly sent a sedan chair to the Su family, saying that she was going to pick up Su Qingyu and bring her into the house for a chat.
After arriving at the Shen family, the first thing Mrs. Shen said was, "Qingyu, don't worry about your father. I've asked the Duke of Wei to intercede for him, and he will be released soon."
Su Qingyu: ...
To be fair, she was very touched that Mrs. Shen had done so much for her.
But when Su Qingyu thought about how Su Chengye was released after only a few days, she felt indescribably depressed.
I couldn't show it on my face, so I could only pretend to be extremely excited. "Really? How can I trouble you?"
Madam Shen held Su Qingyu's hand and said, "You too, it's been several days, and you haven't come to see me. I only heard about your father's incident yesterday from the eldest brother."
Su Qingyu laughed twice and said, "I dare not disturb the old lady, for fear of disturbing your peace."
The old lady smiled and complained to her a few words, saying that she was too polite, and told her to come to her if she had any problems in the future.
After chatting with the old man for a while, Su Qingyu said goodbye and left.
Beside the ancient tree not far from Qingyuan Residence, Shen Zhao stared at Su Qingyu's back intently, with a sinister glint in his eyes.
Cheng Rujin stood beside Shen Zhao at some point, her figure so thin that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
“Brother Shen Zhao, I know you like my cousin, I have a way to help you get her.”
