Su Wenyuan sneered, "Then I really have to thank him, and I hope he will always like you."
After saying that, Su Wenyuan left. How long could Su Yuan's affection last?
Nothing has happened yet. If there is real trouble, what is Su Lin'er?
Seeing that she had left, Su Lin'er did not linger and hurriedly returned to her residence, still comforting herself in her heart that Su Wenyuan must have been lying to her.
What right did Su Wenyuan have to stop her from going? Besides, Su Yuan could make the decision on such a trivial matter; it wasn't Su Wenyuan's place to offer her opinion.
Even if Su Yuanzhen didn't want her to go, Princess Heyi would help her, so there was no way to stop her.
On her way back to the mansion, Su Wenyuan stumbled upon another lively scene.
She saw Su Xian, Su Lin'er's younger brother and Wang's biological son.
Su Xian didn't even have an outer robe, he was only wearing his undergarments, his hair was messy, and he had been kicked out of the casino.
Yuexiu said uneasily, "It's the Third Young Master."
Su Wenyuan asked, "Did he lose all his clothes? He gambled like that without Su Yuan knowing?"
Yuexiu recalled carefully and explained, "We knew he gambled. Once, the debt collectors even chased him all the way to the Prime Minister's residence, and the Third Young Master was beaten up that time! But you probably wouldn't have guessed he gambled this fiercely!"
Su Wenyuan stared intently at the dejected Su Xian, and suddenly a memory about him popped into her mind.
Perhaps she has integrated better with this body, or perhaps Hua Ling's medicine has taken effect.
Anyway, Su Wenyuan would occasionally recall some of her past memories.
"When he went crazy gambling, he borrowed money everywhere. He couldn't pay it back and was afraid that people would come after Su Yuan, so... he stole my things, even my clothes, and beat me." Su Wenyuan recounted the events of that year, pausing between each sentence.
Her impoverished life was also inextricably linked to Su Xian.
Yuexiu nodded sadly, without saying a word.
Their lives in the Prime Minister's mansion were worse than those of dogs.
"Let's go back to the manor." Su Wenyuan had a plan in mind, and she had already figured out how to take revenge.
He's a gambler, which is quite a "good" habit.
On the other side, Su Lin'er had already learned the truth, just as Su Wenyuan had said: Su Yuan wouldn't let her go.
Wang has already argued once, but it was no use.
Su Lin'er cried and questioned, "Why can't I go? Did Su Wenyuan instigate you? You're starting to listen to her now?"
Su Yuan explained in a gentle tone that he had no choice.
"The Emperor asked me to persuade Su Wenyuan. If she doesn't go, the Emperor will question your father's competence!" Su Yuan made his point very clear.
Su Lin'er was still very angry and shouted, "She wanted to go anyway! She didn't need you to persuade her at all! You didn't think about me at all."
Su Wenyuan was right again; Su Yuan didn't like her that much.
She was just showing off to Su Wenyuan, but now she's become a laughing stock.
She also told Su Wenyuan that Su Yuan never stopped her, and now she felt ashamed when she thought about it!
The father and daughter couldn't reach a clear understanding and parted on bad terms, but Su Lin'er didn't give up.
Su Yuan wanted to find a quiet place to hide away because he had too many worries. As soon as he went out, he saw Su Xian returning to the mansion in disheveled clothes.
While other people's sons can pass the imperial examinations and become officials, Su Xian spends his days fooling around and doesn't even want to look at a book.
Looking at his father's ashen face, Su Xian felt that he was not going to escape today.
Unexpectedly, Su Yuan simply walked past him without saying a word, and didn't even bother to look at him.
I'm just too tired to argue anymore. We've been arguing for almost a whole day, and just looking at all these people in the mansion gives me a splitting headache.
He wanted to live two more years; he didn't want to die of anger.
When Yu Qingzhu was alive, he always felt wronged and had to grovel before the Marquis of Anle's family.
Looking back now, what was so unfair about it?
Yu Qingzhu managed the affairs of the manor in an orderly manner, never causing him any trouble.
With the help of the Marquis of Anle in the previous dynasty, he rose through the ranks without ever experiencing any hardship.
He hardly had to put in any effort; the credit was already laid out before him, and all he had to do was claim it and receive the reward.
After Marquis Anle betrayed the country, he was also implicated and felt restricted in the court. He always thought it was because he married Yu Qingzhu.
But after thinking about it for many years, I realized it wasn't that simple.
At that time, Marquis Anle was very powerful, and many people were close to him. Later, the emperor did not treat them all the same way!
If it were truly because of Yu Qingzhu, the Emperor wouldn't have made him Prime Minister for so many years.
Ultimately, it was because he offended the group of ministers who were on good terms with Marquis Anle. In the past, they were willing to help Su Yuan because of Marquis Anle.
Su Yuan was ungrateful, and they didn't want to have anything to do with him.
Su Yuan felt constrained because he hadn't yet expanded his network of contacts.
After Su Wenyuan gave him a good scolding last time, he couldn't help but start fantasizing about another kind of life.
What if he hadn't demoted Yu Qingzhu to a concubine back then?
Yu Qingzhu was still the legal wife, and Su Wenyuan was the legitimate daughter. Taking advantage of the Marquis of Anle's treason, he could also bring Wang back to the mansion as a concubine.
After all, given Wang's background, being able to stay in the Prime Minister's residence as a concubine was already quite an achievement.
He could at least gain a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, and those ministers would be more inclined to befriend him.
When Su Wenyuan grows up, with his position as prime minister and Yu Qingzhu's generous dowry, she will surely become the crown princess.
At that time, he will no longer be suppressed by Marquis Anle, and Yu Qingzhu will help manage the affairs of the mansion. How wonderful his life will be!
Unfortunately, he made a mistake in a moment of confusion and brought up Wang Shi, which has led to everything going wrong for him now.
Even after becoming a princess, Su Wenyuan and he were irreconcilable enemies.
As Su Yuan walked forward, lost in thought, he inadvertently found himself at the Prince Chen's residence.
The guards had already reported it, but Su Wenyuan ignored it completely.
After a while, the guard came to report again that Su Yuan had already left.
"Aren't you planning to come in?" Su Wenyuan asked without looking up, just asking casually, not really caring.
The guard replied, "Not at all. He looked worried, as if he was thinking about something."
Su Wenyuan laughed and said, "After so many years of comfortable life, it's time to have some worries, but this is nothing."
After saying that, she placed the embroidered sachet on Sheng Jingyu's waist and held it up for a moment, boasting, "It's really beautiful."
"...Is it good-looking?" Sheng Jingyu questioned.
She insisted on embroidering, saying she had a beautiful design in her mind that would amaze everyone when she embroidered it.
But she doesn't know how to embroider...
No matter how well you think about it, you can't actually put it into practice.
She started complaining about how ugly the embroidery was halfway done, saying she wouldn't use it herself but wanted to give it to Sheng Jingyu. She even secretly told Yuexiu about it, which Meng Qi overheard.
Sheng Jingyu didn't take it seriously, but she never expected that she would rush to finish it at this critical moment.
On the dark green sachet was embroidered a colorful... rooster? Hen? I don't understand.
