Chapter 150 Su Yu Nu
But I didn’t expect to meet someone in a remote place…
When Su Yunv paid her respects to Shen Chuliu, Shen Chuliu thought that they were really destined to meet each other so often.
Thinking of this, Shen Chuliu smiled: "What a coincidence."
"I heard that Concubine Yi and Concubine Ning both like to appreciate the snow, so I went to a secluded place to avoid meeting them. But it's a good thing that I met Lady Jing." Su Yu Nu said.
She was well dressed, in a rabbit-fur cape.
"Empress Yi may not be able to enjoy the snow this year." Shen Chuliu sat on a thick cushion.
"That being said, it would be troublesome if we met him." Su Yunu also sat down.
She naturally also has a cushion.
Two people sat in the pavilion and watched the snow. It was very cold, but the scenery was really nice.
"I still remember that when I was very young, there was such a pavilion at home. My mother liked peonies, so she planted peonies below. It seldom snowed in winter, and my mother was afraid that the roots of the peonies would be frozen, so she covered it with cotton cloth. But I never got to enjoy the beautiful snow scene. After all, the small garden at home was so big, and there was only one pavilion." Su Yunu suddenly laughed.
Shen Chuliu looked at her: "It sounds very warm."
Su Yu Nu shook her head gently: "It's not warm at all. Mother... doesn't care about father. Father doesn't care about mother either. Mother only manages the backyard. Father has several beautiful and young concubines. When I was a child, I thought such a family was really boring."
"But once it's shattered, you will still be in agony?" Shen Chuliu continued.
"Yes." Su Yunu smiled, with a sad smile.
She poured tea for Shen Chuliu: "I said these... but it was just out of my heart. Jing Meiren also lost her parents when she was young. Even though the Shen family is a noble family, life inside will be even more difficult. It's not much easier than mine. The struggles and oppression here are beyond my imagination."
"Who can live an easy life in this world? What seemed easy in the past might be fake. It will be gone with a gust of wind." Shen Chuliu brought the tea to show his appreciation.
"Yes, life is hard for women, especially for women in the harem. No matter whether they are in high or low positions, it is equally hard. I have received the grace of Concubine Yi and serve the Emperor. It is my blessing. I do not ask for anything else, but I hope that one day, the unjust death of my parents can be vindicated, and that will be in this life... this life will not be lived in vain." Su Yunu looked at Shen Chuliu and chuckled.
Shen Chuliu touched her cup with hers: "Then I wish you success in advance."
When they were going back, Zi Rui asked, "Master, what does Su Yu Nu mean?"
"She is telling me that she will not be hostile to me," Shen Chuliu said.
"He is such a pitiful person. He is helpless and alone. I heard that Concubine Yi is counting on Su Yu to give birth to a child for her." Zi Rui whispered.
Shen Chuliu sneered and said nothing.
Are you dreaming? Su Yu Nu has never been grateful to Concubine Yi.
Besides, will the emperor satisfy Concubine Yi?
On the other side, on the way back to Fenghua Pavilion, Cong Meng also asked in a low voice: "Yu Nu, do you want to join Lady Jing? Although she is just a beauty, she is indeed powerful. Look at Yao Baolin, who has fallen out of favor since he was born in the mansion. He lives in Cuiyunxuan and is taken care of by Lady Jing. He is living well now."
"Who would I dare to surrender to? It's just..." Su Yu Nu shook her head: "I just want to tell her that Concubine Yi and I are not in the same camp."
"But..." Cong Meng bit her lip: "But hasn't Concubine Yi always been very good to you? Why don't you stay with Concubine Yi?"
Cong Meng has always been confused, and his own concubine has always rejected this.
"You will understand later, or do you think I am ungrateful?" Su Yunu looked at Cong Meng.
"No, no, no, I don't have that intention and I don't dare to have that intention." Cong Meng said anxiously: "I'm just curious. After all, it's a second-rank concubine... I'm just curious."
"No need to be curious. Concubine Yi is no longer the Concubine Yi of the past. From the day she pushed me out, she is no longer the Concubine Yi of the past. I don't seek favor or high position. It's useless to follow her."
"Oh, I'll remember that. But I can't follow you or make you my enemy, otherwise it will not be good for you." Cong Meng said sincerely.
"With you here, how can we be enemies?" Su Yunu smiled: "Don't worry. I know what to do."
It's rare that there are people who are truly worried about her.
As for Shen Chuliu, not long after she returned, she heard someone from Taiji Palace coming with a message saying that the Emperor invited Concubine Jing to have lunch at Taiji Palace at noon and to serve her writing in the afternoon.
Shen Chuliu sent the visitor away and said he would be there later.
"No wonder Su Yunv made it clear in advance. The master is indeed more favored than them now." Zi Rui said in a low voice.
"Whenever you have such thoughts, think about Concubine Yi first." Shen Chuliu said.
Zi Rui paused for a moment, then said unconvincedly: "I know that no flower in the palace lasts forever. But...but you are not her. Let's not talk about family background and appearance. Let's just talk about temperament and ability. Even if...even if I am a bad mouth, if you are not favored as you are now in the future, you will never become like her. You said that it is important for people to love themselves, and you will not fail to love yourself."
"Oh, Sister Zirui, what are you talking about?" Zizhu came in and listened halfway.
"I didn't say anything. I just wanted to sound the alarm. That's good." Shen Chuliu laughed.
"Ah? Alarm bell?" Zizhu was stunned.
"It's just to remind me not to make mistakes." Shen Chuliu smiled again: "Is this a good thing?"
Zizhu could only nod.
Zi Rui stuck out her tongue.
"Are you in a hurry to change my clothes? Don't worry, it's still early. Let me rest for a while." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
Zizhu nodded and put her clothes aside: "Sit outside, it's warm. You don't want the inner room to be too hot."
Shen Chuliu changed into a snow-blue casual dress and sat outside: "It's not that the inner room is not allowed to be hot, but it's easy to get dry when sleeping at night. It's easy to get sick if it's too hot. You guys light such a big fire outside at night, it's just right inside, it's a little cooler during the day. But it's the same for me to stay outside."
"Master, I'll get you some walnuts." Zi Rui said, "There are also chestnuts, freshly fried."
"Take it, bring it and ask Yao Baolin to eat together, and see if she is okay."
Soon, chestnuts and walnuts were brought, and Yao Baolin also came.
She was wrapped in a thick cloak, but when she came in and took it off, she found that she was wearing an ordinary robe underneath, which was neither new nor old.
"Come, these walnuts are fried best this year, let's eat them together." Shen Chuliu said.
"Okay. I have nothing to do and don't want to do needlework." Yao Baolin warmed himself by the fire and then sat opposite Shen Chuliu.
"Also, you guys don't have to serve us. The tea is just on the stove. You can go to the next room to eat. Don't be reluctant to use fire. Baochuan, come with you." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.
Meow? If there is no lottery, you guys won’t be happy anymore, right?
