Chapter 32 Warning to Aunt (Part 1)
"Second Miss, where are you going in such a hurry so late at night?" Butler Su asked curiously while driving the carriage.
"Let's go outside the city, to the old residence of the Gu family." Su Yue squinted her eyes slightly in the carriage, trying to make herself feel more comfortable. After all, she was very tired in the past few days. She would soon go to her grandfather's house, and there would be another "battle".
"But Second Miss, the master does not agree with you and the Madam having too much contact with the Gu family." Hearing that they were going to the Gu family's old house, Butler Su was a little hesitant and hurriedly persuaded Su Yue.
Su Yue didn't want to say anything at this time. She leaned the back of her head lightly against the car window, and as the carriage bumped, it hit the window lightly again and again.
"Butler Su, if you are afraid of your father's punishment, you can go back. I can go alone."
Hearing that the second young lady was determined, he said nothing more. He whipped the horse's butt with the whip. The horse felt the pain and walked faster.
Although Su Yue's eyes were closed, her mind was racing. She knew what Butler Su wanted to know, but now was not the right time.
"Butler Su, your daughter will come back, but the time has not come yet, and there is nothing I can do.
When the time comes, I will bring her back immediately. Believe me, she is blessed with a long life. ”
She spoke softly, thinking of Su Qing, who went out to play with her a few years ago and was mistaken for her and abducted by Aunt Liu. She must be suffering in some opera troupe now.
She remembered that in her previous life, not long after she came back from the old house, Su Qing came running to the Su Mansion with scars all over her body. At that time, she only knew that she ran away from the opera troupe, and she didn't ask which one it was.
Counting the days, Su Qing should have arrived in the imperial city. Tomorrow I will go to various major opera troupes to look for him.
"I believe in the Second Miss. The Second Miss was able to save her uncle with only the guidance of dreams. This servant's daughter must be alive and well."
When Butler Su heard Su Yue mention his daughter Su Qing, he thought of the child who liked to lie on his back and call him daddy, and he held the whip tightly in his hand.
"Oh, Second Miss, we're here. I won't go in with you." Not long after, Su Yue felt a pause at the back of his head, and the carriage stopped.
"Do you think you are still in a big house in the city, a lady served by servants? You have to wash all the dishes for me today!" Su Yue heard a woman's stern voice before she got off the carriage. She knew it was her aunt Chen without thinking.
She got off the carriage, pushed open the shabby gate, and with the dim light from inside, she saw a girl about five years old squatting at the door.
In front of her was a large basin of dishes. It was a cold winter and her hands were already red from the cold.
"I was born and raised in this house. Where did the big house in the city come from? What's the point of having servants serving me? My aunt just can't stand that my mother can't do any work because of her big belly, so she takes it out on me." The little girl could only be heard mumbling, and her words sounded very logical.
"Cousin?" She asked uncertainly. After all, when she and her mother Gu left the imperial city, her third aunt was still pregnant. However, if you counted the date and the age, they did match.
"Huh? Who are you?" The little girl heard someone calling her and raised her big head with a puzzled look on her face. She didn't know Su Yue.
"I'm your cousin, Su Yue, can you call your mother over?"
She looked at her cousin in front of her. She was wearing tattered clothes and had frostbite on her hands from being soaked in cold water for a long time. Her face, which should have been rosy, was cracked, and only her big, bright eyes were staring at her.
"Cousin? Mother did mention my cousin to me, but she said she was suffering in the countryside. So, cousin, are you back?"
The little girl was not shy, perhaps because of blood relationship, she felt for no reason that the beautifully dressed sister in front of her was very friendly.
"Well, your cousin is back and has come to see your mother." She touched the little girl's head, her eyes full of pity. She didn't expect that her third aunt was still thinking about her even though she was in such a difficult situation.
No wonder in the previous life, when my third uncle just came back and became a general, he couldn’t wait to ask my father to bring them back. Unfortunately, I didn’t know what was good for me in the previous life, and no wonder I ended up like that.
"Mom is lighting the fire. My aunt wants to take a bath and is asking mom to boil water. I'll go get it for you." The little girl quickly stood up and wiped her body with her wet hands with very skilled movements.
"You said your mother was making a fire?!" Su Yue was stunned, and then she became angry. Her third aunt was about to give birth, with such a big belly. Even an ordinary family would not let a pregnant woman work at this time. But her eldest aunt actually asked her to boil water!
"You little brat, why are you making noise outside instead of washing the dishes?" My aunt, who had gone in earlier, heard some noise outside the door and came out again angrily.
As soon as I went out, I saw a thin girl, who was not dressed like someone from an ordinary family, staring at me with anger in her eyes.
"Who are you? Why are you coming to my house in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Obviously, after five years, she no longer recognized Su Yue.
"Aunt, she said she is my cousin, Su Yue." The little girl was so scared when she saw her aunt getting angry that she trembled a little, but she still mustered up the courage to speak out.
"Su Yue?"
"Aunt, it's me, Su Yue." Su Yue saw that her aunt looked her up and down for several times but was still not sure, so she took the initiative to admit her identity.
"Hey, Miss Yue, why didn't you say hello when you came so that I could clean up and treat you well. Look at our house, it's so poor, and you came here suddenly, I really can't give you anything to treat you."
How could Su Yue, who had lived a second life, not understand the meaning behind her words? He smiled coldly in his heart. She started crying poor before he even entered the door?
“If I had said hello before coming over, would I have missed seeing my cousins being bullied?” Su Yue’s eyes were cold and she sneered softly, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Hey, Miss Yue, what do you mean by this? You silly girl, did you gossip and cause your cousin to misunderstand you?" Chen heard Su Yue's tone and was sure that this silly girl had said something.
When a person feels guilty, he raises his voice, trying to cover up his panic.
"What do I mean? My aunt knows it well. Do I need my cousin to tell you what you did? Am I, Su Yue, blind?
Also, your cousin has a name, don’t call her a dead girl or a little bitch all the time. Don’t forget that you are also a member of the Gu family! ”
"Yes, I do have a name. My name is Xiao Lingdang!" Perhaps infected by Su Yue's emotions, Xiao Lingdang also plucked up the courage to report her own name.
Chen wanted to say something, but when she met Su Yue's sinister gaze, she shuddered for no reason.
"I'm going to go see my third aunt. If anything happens to her, you will have to deal with the consequences. Xiao Lingling, take me to see your mother." After saying that, Su Yue gave Chen a warning look and walked towards the kitchen.
