Su Qingyu looked at Feicui meaningfully, then turned and said calmly, "Zhenzhu, take them all down."
Pearl didn't understand what was going on, but seeing the lady's serious expression, she didn't dare ask any more questions. She bowed and saluted, then left with the maids.
After the door of the inner room was closed, Su Qingyu looked down at Feicui again, but did not call out.
"Are you still thinking about your third cousin?"
Jade bit her lower lip tightly, lowered her head and said, "I dare not."
Su Qingyu tapped her fair fingers on the dressing table. "I don't dare, but I don't deny it. So you're still thinking about me, right?"
Feicui said nothing. She didn't dare to lie to the lady, but she didn't dare to say it out loud either.
After a long while, Su Qingyu didn't say anything.
Feicui raised her head nervously. She was not afraid of the lady scolding her, but she was afraid that the lady would be angry because of her.
My wife is in advanced pregnancy now, so she can't get angry.
Su Qingyu sighed upon seeing this, "Do you think I'm angry that you're thinking about your third cousin? I'm angry that you don't care about yourself at all."
"Third cousin is a man, so even if he really takes you as his concubine, it won't be a big deal."
"So what will you do in the future? Are you going to just stay in his backyard, waiting and hoping that he'll even look at you?"
Tears welled up in Feicui's eyes as she shook her head repeatedly, saying, "Madam, I have never thought of having anything to do with my third cousin. What I just said is sincere. I will never marry and serve you for the rest of my life."
With her condition, whoever she marries will be harming him.
Su Qingyu leaned over and helped the man up, saying softly, "If you think so now, you might meet the right one in the future. If there is a suitable one, I will make plans for you."
Feicui didn't want Su Qingyu to worry, so she said, "If I meet someone suitable in the future, I will definitely tell Madam."
In fact, she knew in her heart that she would never have feelings for other people again in her life.
After Feicui stood up, she continued to help Su Qingyu tie up her hair and insert a hairpin, and then changed into a casual plain jacket and skirt.
After everything was sorted, Su Qingyu stood up and prepared to go to Qingyuan Residence. Then she heard Zhenzhu's voice outside, "Madam, the third cousin is here and has brought you fish from the Black Mangyuan."
"Please ask the Third Cousin Young Master to go to the hall for tea. I'll be right there." Then he instructed Feicui, "Come on, you come with me."
Since Feicui explained it clearly, she just pretended that nothing happened and didn't want to treat Feicui differently.
There was no extra expression on Feicui's face. She replied "yes" and helped Su Qingyu out.
In the west courtyard hall, Su Qingyu joked as she entered, "I thought I wouldn't be able to eat my third cousin's fish this year."
Lin Wuchen was sitting there drinking tea. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "How could I not know what you like to eat? I was supposed to arrive before the New Year, but I got delayed along the way."
Su Qingyu sat down next to Lin Wuchen and suddenly said, "Fourth sister is fifteen years old this year. It's time for her to look for a husband."
"If my third cousin has a suitable family, please keep him on the lookout for him."
Lin Wuchen looked at Su Qingyu helplessly, with a wry smile on his face, "You are sincere, knowing that I..."
Su Qingyu interrupted him, "What do you know? I only know that my fourth sister should be looking for a husband, and she needs to start looking for a good husband early."
Lin Wuchen lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then looked up again and suddenly forced a smile.
"Give me some time. After you give birth, I'll go south. Even if we're going to see each other, two months won't be too long, right?"
Su Qingyu rolled her eyes at him. "Why does it sound like my cousin has a mistress in the south and is in a hurry to get rid of her?"
She was just joking, but Lin Wuchen's expression changed, and then he said, "Don't talk nonsense, there is no such thing as a concubine."
Su Qingyu was very attentive and could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Lin Wuchen. "Third cousin, what on earth are you hiding from us? You have to tell me clearly, she's my own sister."
Could it be true as she said that my third cousin is doing something shameful outside?
She didn't believe that her third cousin was such a person, but her cousin's reaction was puzzling.
Lin Wuchen begged, "Wait until I go to the south. When I come back, I'll tell you exactly what's going on."
He rarely had this expression and tone, and today he seemed to be really anxious.
Seeing him like this, Su Qingyu couldn't say anything more, so she nodded and said, "I can only help you so much, you can do whatever you want."
After Lin Wuchen left, Su Qingyu began to wonder if there was any suitable marriage for her fourth sister in Beijing.
Obviously, my third cousin's crooked tree is not reliable.
A few days before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Qingyu ordered people to prepare offerings, incense, candles, and incense money.
In previous years, she would go to Huguo Temple in person to light the eternal lamp for her grandfather, but this year she was in poor health and was afraid that it would be unsafe for her to travel.
He had no choice but to prepare the things and ask his subordinates to go there.
On the evening of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Qingyu was drinking the freshly served fish soup at the table in the banquet room.
I casually said to Feicui, "Tomorrow we'll go to Huguo Temple. Take the two maids with you. You've seen how I did it in previous years. Just do it the same way."
Feicui said, "Yes, I know everything. Madam, don't worry, I will definitely take care of these things."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhixiu walked in from outside.
Hearing that Feicui was going to Huguo Temple on Su Qingyu's behalf tomorrow, Shen Zhixiu thought for a moment and said, "Feicui, don't go tomorrow. I'm going to Huguo Temple in two days. I'll personally light candles and burn incense for the old man of the Su family then."
Su Qingyu originally wanted to say that it would only be effective if she went on the fifteenth day.
But after looking at Shen Zhixiu's expression, he took back his words.
She gave Feicui a look, and Feicui understood and retreated with the maids and servants who were serving her.
