Today is the master's joyous day, but the master is bedridden and unable to come. However, she must make sure this matter is handled properly, so as not to let Miss Su think that they are neglecting her.
"Oh my, Aunt Cui is here so early," Madam Yang greeted Granny Cui with a fake smile as she stood at the gate, then instructed the servants, "Take Aunt Cui to that girl's place. When the time comes, you can leave through the back door."
Upon hearing this, Granny Cui immediately turned cold. There's no such thing as a wedding being arranged through connections.
"That won't do. My master's wedding is not something to be taken lightly. I've come here today openly and legitimately to welcome my bride through the main gate."
Although the master's wedding was a bit shabby, the proper etiquette was still observed.
Seeing this, Madam Yang glanced at Granny Cui with disdain. "A country bumpkin, even if you dye a chicken, it won't turn into a phoenix. And she keeps calling me 'master,' what's with all the airs?"
However, today was a good day, and she was in a rare good mood, so she didn't want to argue with this person.
After today, she will never have to see that annoying brat again.
"As you wish," she instructed the servant, "take Aunt Cui to Su Wan's courtyard."
After saying that, Madam Yang swayed her plump hips and went to make arrangements for her daughter, Su Yue'e.
The front yard was filled with joy and celebration, while Su Wan's yard was deserted.
"Young lady, the Wei family has come to fetch the bride."
Su Wan, who was still fast asleep, was suddenly woken up by the noise outside. She was a little grumpy when she woke up, but the thought of seeing her younger brother Su Yuze soon made her perk up immediately.
She rolled out of bed, first tidied her messy hair, then looked left and right but couldn't find the hairpin. Then she remembered that the hairpin was still stuck in Yang Yaozu's nape, so she found a red ribbon and tied it up hastily before going to open the door.
With a creak, the door opened.
When Granny Cui saw Su Wan come out, her eyes lit up.
The young girl wore a light, white dress, her long, black hair tied with a red ribbon that seemed to shimmer softly in the sunlight. A slight smile played on her lips, and a mischievous glint shone in her clear eyes, yet her every movement exuded the elegance of a well-bred young lady.
Lin Qingfeng wasn't lying to her; Miss Su truly was a woman of extraordinary beauty.
Granny Cui looked Su Wan up and down and saw that she was poised and dignified, neither servile nor arrogant. She was more and more satisfied with her and stepped forward to bow respectfully to Su Wan: "This servant, Cui, greets Miss."
Who would have thought that Prefect Su's daughter was so beautiful that one glance was enough to make one unable to look away, and she almost forgot to bow.
He truly is a person worthy of his master.
This marriage exchange was a good one!
Then he remembered that the person in front of him was the one Master Huiming had spoken of, and now he saw Su Wan as perfect in every way.
Thinking that her master could marry such a person, her gaze towards Su Wan softened even more.
Su Wan looked at the woman in front of her, whose hair was neatly combed and who was wearing a brand-new red wedding dress. She looked very festive. Her hands were crossed over her lower abdomen, her posture was upright, and her expression was calm. It was as if such etiquette was ingrained in her bones.
Her eyes flickered, and she turned to the side, saying, "Aunt Cui, you're too polite. Please come in."
Granny Cui nodded in satisfaction, smiled, and led the people into the room, saying, "Miss Su, today is a joyous occasion, so I specially brought people to help you with your makeup."
The maid carrying the dressing box stepped forward and bowed to Su Wan. Just as she was about to open the dressing box to apply makeup to Su Wan, Su Wan grabbed her arm.
Granny Cui didn't understand why she was doing this, and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Su Wan got up and walked out: "Aunt Cui, don't rush to put on makeup. I'm going out to see Madam Yang about something. I'll be back in a bit."
After saying that, she quickly walked towards Su Yue'e's courtyard. Granny Cui, fearing she would suffer a loss, hurriedly followed behind her.
She knew all too well what kind of life this Miss Su lived in the Su family mansion. Not only did her uncle and aunt seize the property left by Prefect Su, but they also mistreated his two children; they were truly a pair of ingrates.
If they dare to be disrespectful to Miss Su, she will definitely stand up for her.
As soon as Su Wan stepped through the door, bursts of laughter and cheerful chatter filled the hall.
"...From now on, you will be the daughter-in-law of a noble family. After you enter the family, hurry up and give birth to a big, healthy son for Young Master Zhao, and your position will be secure."
"Mother!" Su Yue'e said shyly.
With a bang, the door was kicked open by Su Wan.
Yang and the people in the house were startled. When they saw that the person who came was Su Wan, the smile on Yang's face immediately disappeared.
"Su Wan, what are you doing? Don't you have any manners? Oh, you even kicked the door."
Su Wan didn't care what they thought. She first glanced at the bright red wedding dress Su Yue'e was wearing. That wedding dress should have belonged to her, but now it was being worn by her cousin.
She cut off these trivial thoughts in her mind and asked Yang directly for the person.
"Yang, where is my younger brother?"
"How dare you! I am your second aunt! How dare you call me by my name? If you continue like this, don't blame me for disregarding family ties and suing you for filial impiety!" Madam Yang said angrily.
What exactly happened?
Ever since that brat came out of the woodshed, she's been like a completely different person.
I remember Su Wan wasn't this fierce before.
