Chapter 739 The Old Lady Has a Lover
Su Nuan scratched her head. When she collected Su Zhen's dowry at the Shangshu Mansion, many things were mixed together and she didn't know what they were.
Seeing her like this, the old lady knew that she knew nothing and said with a smile, "It just so happens that I still have some private collections here. Let's give them all to Xiao Ling as a dowry."
Su Nuan shook her head, "No, I have to leave some for Tuantuan."
"Didn't you say you had something for me? Just use that."
Mrs. Xue thought for a moment and said, "But there are still things to buy, and it's too late to make wedding clothes."
Su Nuan nodded, "That's right, when Hai Lan proposes marriage, she will definitely give money, so use that money to buy it."
Xue asked worriedly, "Does this person know everything about us? Will he mistreat our little Ling?"
Su Nuan quickly smiled and said, "He's very reliable. He will never bully Xiao Ling. Only Xiao Ling can bully him."
The old lady was worried about something else. "But... Xiao Ling is not a human after all. What if he finds out?"
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's all thanks to him that Xiao Ling has grown up."
After hearing this, the old lady and Mrs. Xue both understood that Hai Lan was definitely not a human being. He was very loyal to Su Nuan, otherwise he would not have been so confident in marrying Xiao Ling to him.
Xue heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I understand. They want an identity, right?"
Su Nuan giggled, "Mom is the smartest."
Xue felt relieved. "That's good. They definitely don't need water, so there's no need to dig a well."
The old lady also smiled and said, "Yes, but other things are still necessary."
Su Nuan didn’t understand these things. Since they were taking care of them, she didn’t have to worry about it.
She asked, "What am I going to do?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Go to the west room of my house and take the things away."
Su Nuan went into the house and took a look. There were boxes of all sizes, and no matter which one she opened, they were all filled to the brim.
What exquisite jade, precious gems, gorgeous porcelain...
Su Nuan was dazzled by what she saw. She walked out the door and said, "Grandma, give all of this to Xiao Ling as her dowry."
The old lady smiled and said, "No, we'll prepare the rest, you can put these away first."
Xue also advised: "Keep it. The things here cannot be shown to the public yet."
Su Nuan understood that it might be something that could not be seen by outsiders, so she put it away first.
The space spirit knows even less about these things, and she does not covet human gems and other items.
She came close to Mrs. Xue and said flatteringly, "Mom, I want to eat the snacks you made."
Xue chuckled, "Okay, I'll do it for you right away."
There are kitchens and dining halls in the courtyard.
Su Nuan watched them leave affectionately.
The old lady asked again: "Will Xiao Ling always be here?"
Su Nuan shook her head. "I don't know. They both have a lot of things to do, so they don't show up most of the time."
"Hai Lan married in such a high-profile manner to prevent outsiders from trying to match him up with a wife."
The old lady's face showed worry. "Xiao Ling is still a child at heart. If she finds out that she was used, will she be sad?"
Su Nuan shook her head repeatedly and said comfortingly: "No, they know it very well."
The old lady looked at Su Nuan carefully, and there was still worry in her eyes.
Su Nuan knew that the old lady was worried about her return to the capital, and she didn't know how to comfort her.
The old lady took out a booklet and said, "This list contains the names of the ladies I have a good relationship with. Please take a look and see if you can use them."
After saying that, she took out a jade pendant with a white background and pink characters. The jade pendant was oval in shape, and the pink color on it formed the two words "Lingxi".
Su Nuan's eyes lit up and she asked, "Grandma, is this given by your lover?"
The old lady's eyes softened. "Yes, it's a pity that we are not destined to be together. He also said that he would marry me after your grandfather died."
Su Nuan's eyes flashed with gossip, "So what happened next?"
The old lady pouted and said, "He didn't survive the two of us and died first."
Su Nuan, “…” This is a sad story.
The old lady didn't seem sad, but just sighed, "Let's not talk about that. Take the jade pendant to his wife, she will help you."
Su Nuan glanced at the old lady, "Looking for your old lover's wife? Are you sure she will help me instead of taking advantage of my misfortune?"
The old lady smiled and said, "She is my good friend, and we are like sisters."
The corners of Su Nuan's mouth twitched. The relationship network of wealthy families was so complicated and unbelievable.
The old lady said nothing more, "Okay, you'll find out when you go find it."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, I'll remember that."
The General's Mansion should have some friends in the capital. It's impossible that there is no one willing to help.
Su Nuan didn't think too much about it. Anyway, if someone was willing to listen to her, she would keep him. If someone went against her, she would just kill him and be done with it.
Suddenly there was a noise in the front yard, and Su Nuan looked over blankly.
Bai Tong rushed into the courtyard with several strong and sturdy women.
Su Nuan said in surprise: "Isn't she unable to come in?"
The old lady whispered, "Cang'er said to let her come in and make some noise, so as to spread the news about you and Xiaoyun."
Su Nuan suddenly realized, "I see, he's just a fool being used by others."
The old lady chuckled, then quickly became serious again.
Bai Tong led his men to rush in front of them, put his hands on his hips and shouted, "Su Nuan, do you still have any shame?"
Su Nuan looked at her straight and said nothing.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Bai Tong shouted even more angrily: "Su Nuan, I'm talking to you."
"You actually had an affair with Ling Yun. Where do you put Ling Cang's face?"
Su Nuan smiled faintly, life wasn't that boring after all.
"Ling Cang's face is not with me."
Bai Tong snorted coldly, "Ling Cang is the city lord here, managing both the front and back cities."
"People from the surrounding cities wanted to get a piece of the action, but they were all defeated by Ling Cang's troops."
"To put it bluntly, he is the King of the North. How could you do such a shameful thing?"
Su Nuan tilted her head to look at her and asked doubtfully, "Didn't someone come to provoke us, and Ling Cang beat them away? When did he lead his troops out?"
Bai Tong's face showed discomfort, and then he said: "Anyway, no one around here dares to disobey."
"You are Ling Cang's abandoned wife now, so you must remain faithful to him, but you are having an affair with another man."
"Even if you changed a man, Ling Cang would let you go, but you insisted on hooking up with his own brother."
"Have you ever thought about Ling Cang's reputation? Are you worthy of Ling Cang?"
Su Nuan held his forehead with his hand. This person spoke in a roundabout way, but none of his words made sense.
She didn't want to talk, after all, playing with a fool was not a wise choice.
Seeing that Su Nuan didn't want to talk, the old lady took out a handkerchief and wiped her eyes, choking with sobs and saying, "Nuan Nuan, I am your grandmother after all. You can't use my life to threaten Cang'er to let you go."
Su Nuan, “…”
She felt a little overwhelmed at the moment. How should she deal with this situation?
