Chapter 310 I Give You Face
Chapter 310 I Give You Face
Su Jin is here?
An Xiaoniang was delighted for a moment, but when she didn't see anyone, she could only lower her head in disappointment.
Sun Yuan didn't notice An Xiaoniang's expression, and only said weakly: "Sister, you go and serve the old lady. I'm going to go out and check our shop and calculate the losses..."
The two of them have sorted out the losses in the mansion, but now they are seriously short of manpower. The Huns attacked and not only robbed a lot of things, but also killed a lot of people. In addition to Gu Changqing and Song Xiaoniang who was hit to death, several servants also died. Not only do they have to be busy with the funeral, but they also have to send some silver to other people's homes. Sun Yuan was so busy that her head hurt, and she had no choice but to find An Xiaoniang for help.
As for the other concubines, not one of them was willing to help.
Although Sun Yuan was angry, there was nothing she could do. She was just a concubine. If she became the mistress, no one would dare to disobey her.
"good!"
When she heard that they were going to the old lady's place, An Xiaoniang was naturally happy. She mainly wanted to see Su Jin.
However, as soon as she entered Zou's yard, she heard angry curses coming from inside.
"How dare you come here!"
Zou was so angry that she pointed at Su Jin and yelled, "If you hadn't insisted on a divorce, would my son have died? Su Jin, give my Chang Qing back to me!"
When everything was peaceful, she could still pretend to be a good mother-in-law and a good mother. But now that Gu Changqing is gone, Zou is shaking with anger. If she wasn't in poor health, she would have wanted to jump up and beat Su Jin.
Su Jin said coldly: "Madam, Changqing was killed by the Huns. What does it have to do with me?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Zou cursed angrily: "The abbot of Daxiangguo Temple said that as long as Changqing can be with you, he will not die, but you left anyway, Su Jin, you are a disaster, you are a disaster, wuwuwu, my son, my poor son..."
Zou burst into tears and almost couldn't breathe. Yuchuan and Jinchuan were so angry that their eyes were wide open. It was a joke. Gu Changqing was killed by the Huns, so why should they blame them? How shameless!
The two were extremely angry, but Su Jin just wanted to sneer.
It seemed that she should not have told Zou about this matter in the first place, but there was no solution. If she wanted to leave the house happily, she must get Zou's approval, but she had nothing that could impress Zou. The only son the old lady cared about was this one son, so she could only start with Gu Changqing.
Thinking about it this way, there was nothing to regret. At least she got the divorce happily.
As for now?
Oh……
Su Jin's face was even more sarcastic: "The old lady is right. If Gu Changqing had been with me, he would not have died, because I would have been the one who died of anger in the end. Losing a daughter-in-law is nothing. At most, I can remarry. Losing a son is not a big deal. The sky is falling."
"You, what do you mean?"
Zou was so angry that she was shaking all over. Su Jin, what are you talking about?
"Don't pretend, don't you understand? I, Su Jin, have been here for twenty years and am still an outsider. Since the old lady doesn't like me, I won't sit down either. Jin Chuan, put down your things and let's go!"
Su Jin didn't want to give in to Zou either, so he turned around and walked out.
In the past, everyone could get along peacefully as long as they smiled at each other. But now they have to tear their faces apart. That doesn’t matter. She is not afraid.
“You, you!”
Zou was really furious. Su Jin had been so respectful to her before, but now he just turned his face away!
Zou turned around and wanted to ask Mother Wen to tear Su Jin's mouth, but she couldn't see anyone. Then she remembered that Mother Wen's life or death was uncertain.
The old lady said angrily: "You, you ask Xuan Ge'er, Lu Ge'er and Sui Yu to come back, come back!"
Su Jin didn't even turn her head and said coldly: "The legs are on their own bodies, I can't stop them, what do you think, old lady?"
"Su Jin!"
Zou was so angry that she yelled and cursed, but Su Jin had already pushed the door and left. The cursing continued to come from the house, but Su Jin's expression did not change at all. He walked to the gate of the courtyard and, as expected, bumped into An Xiaoniang.
"Sister Su Jin!"
An Xiaoniang was extremely happy and grabbed her hand: "Seeing that my sister is fine, I feel relieved!"
"Are you and Brother Mu all right?"
An Xiaoniang nodded: "We hid in your Liuting Pavilion. The door is sealed, so we can avoid it..."
"While we're talking, come and sit in my house when you have time."
Su Jin also knew that the Marquis' Mansion was in chaos, and she didn't come to help, she just wanted to gain fame. Now she was here and had gained fame. As for what Zou had done, she didn't mind promoting it for the old lady.
"Okay, take care, sister!"
An Xiaoniang's face was full of reluctance. She wanted to let Su Jin meet Mu Ge'er. The child was almost four years old. He was still wearing the gold collar given by his sister, and the little guy could already call her aunt.
But now is definitely not the time.
After watching Su Jin leave, An Xiaoniang entered the house.
Mother Wen was estimated to be dying soon, and there was no caring person to serve the old lady. An Xiaoniang was given the task and did what a daughter-in-law should do, which was to serve the old lady.
Zou was so angry with Su Jin that she was still cursing after the man left. An Xiaoniang quietly cleaned and changed the medicine for the man without saying a word.
The three children never returned to the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and the results of the imperial examination were announced.
This was undoubtedly the first good and exciting news after the Huns attacked the city.
Many people gathered at the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall to look at the list. Luan Wu and three others also came. They were participating in this year's imperial examination with Gu Zilu. Although they had failed before, it was not a problem. They could still participate again, right?
The three people first looked at the first place, and as expected, Gu Zilu was still the first.
"Brother Lu is really amazing!"
"I have achieved five of the six highest honors. Is the last one still out of reach?"
"It's a sure thing. Our Great Zhou will have a six-yuan winner!"
The three of them forgot to check their own grades and instead gathered around Gu Zilu's name, chattering excitedly.
"Hey, why hasn't Brother Lu come yet?"
"Yeah, why doesn't Brother Lu come to see the list?"
The three people were extremely curious. They looked around but didn't see Gu Zilu, so they decided to go to the mansion to ask in person.
Gu Zilu now lives with his mother. When the three of them arrived at the Su Mansion, they found out that Gu Zilu had been missing for several days.
"Brother Lu is missing?"
"They left the city before the Huns arrived?"
"Aunt, let's go find someone together!"
The three people were more anxious than Su Jin, so Su Jin could only say, "Xuan Ge'er has already led his troops out of the city. Horses have four legs, so they are more careful than people."
Luan Wu and the other two nodded after hearing this, but they were still worried, so they decided to go to the city gate to guard it. In case they missed it and the person came back on his own, they would be the first to know.
Everyone was busy for Gu Zilu, and this matter even alarmed the emperor. He was about to achieve the top six in the imperial examination, but Gu Zilu was gone. What a disaster that would be!
Send someone to look for it. No matter what, they must find it!
