Lu Qingyan was a cultivator, so how could she not notice Su Bu'e's actions? She glanced coldly at Su Bu'e and then gave the steward a fake smile: "This should be the young master Bu'e that Sister Su mentioned. He is indeed a handsome man."
As Lu Qingyan spoke, she directly elevated her seniority.
Using the elders to pressure Su Bu'e might at least make him behave a little.
Butler Su didn't understand anything and smiled modestly, saying, "Not at all, my son is naughty and doesn't deserve such a reputation." However, the expression on his face was quite proud.
“Young Master Bu’e is at the perfect age to study. In a few years, we’ll see how well he has learned.” Lu Qingyan said with a smile, “I was surprised too. I was so busy talking to you that I forgot about Sister Su. I’ll go in and call her now.”
As Lu Qingyan spoke, she went into the house to call Aunt Su.
Aunt Su was quietly sewing shoe soles and obviously hadn't heard the commotion outside. When she saw Lu Qingyan come in, she thought something had happened to Lu Qingyan.
"What's wrong?" Aunt Su asked.
"Sister Su," Lu Qingyan called out sweetly, announcing the good news, "Uncle Su and Young Master Bu'e have returned."
"Really?" Aunt Su stood up abruptly, her face flushed, and said, "I'm already so old. You used to call me 'Auntie' all the time, why are you suddenly calling me 'Sister'?"
Lu Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed: "Before, I wasn't familiar with you, so I just called you Sister-in-law Bai. Now that we've known each other for so long, I don't think you're old at all. If I call you Auntie again, wouldn't that make you sound old?"
"Alright, you're so sweet-talking." Aunt Su said this, but she was secretly overjoyed.
She walked outside and, sure enough, saw her long-lost husband and son.
Lu Qingyan didn't disturb the sweet time the family spent together; she hugged her fake son and huddled in her room.
As night fell, Lu Qingyan was suddenly awakened by a noise. She looked at Su Han, whom she was holding in her arms, and after setting up a barrier around her, she secretly walked over to listen to what they were saying.
As a result, Lu Qingyan immediately learned the answer she had been searching for.
The true culprit behind the massacre of the Su family.
During her time with Aunt Su, Lu Qingyan knew that she had a deep bond with her master and would never do anything so heartless as to harm her master. However, the answer she heard made her somewhat alarmed.
Clearly, the couple had come to blows by this point. Lu Qingyan listened from outside as one of them raged and the other wept, covering his face.
"I don't care what method you use, that outsider living in the house must be driven away immediately, and she absolutely cannot find out." This was the voice of Butler Su. It was slightly different from his usual voice, but it was still clearly him. He seemed very angry.
Aunt Su cried and cursed, "You beast, you beast! What kind of person are you? How could you do this to Master and Madam? They were so good to our family. How could you be so cruel? I even held Miss Han's child. She was so small and soft. You are a father yourself. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Slap!" Lu Qingyan heard the sound of a slap.
Butler Su said fiercely, "Shut up! I'm doing this for our family's sake. What will happen to our son if we're relying on that meager monthly allowance?"
