Chapter 68 A mutual affection?

"Don't you know that the small garden is mother's territory? These flowers and plants are her hard work, but you broke them at will and cut the petals and branches all over the ground. What on earth are you thinking?" Zhao Wanrong has been managing the Su Mansion well since she married into the Su Mansion. She has always been very dignified. The two sisters used to be jealous of her in their hearts, but later, as time went by, they found that she had no bad intentions and were no longer afraid.

Su Yun smiled and replied: "Sister-in-law, it's my mother's birthday tonight. She likes peonies just like my wife, so I thought of picking a few peonies to make her happy."

It would have been better if she hadn't said this. Zhao Wanrong got even angrier when she said this.

Without waiting for her answer, Su He took a half step forward and stared at the peony branches, smiling gently: "Does Aunt Luo like peonies? Or do you like the position of a lady?"

Su Yun's face changed, and she hurriedly explained: "Second sister, you are wrong. Mother just likes peonies. She is of low status, how can she dream of the position of a lady?"

The last sentence was said in a low voice, and Su Yun's eyes flickered slightly. Thinking of her mother who was Wang's personal maid, she felt ashamed.

If it weren't for her father who got drunk and mistook her mother for Wang, she would not have been born. Unlike Su He, she was born a legitimate daughter, and the halo of a legitimate daughter is something she can never pursue!

"You want Aunt Luo to be happy. As a daughter, I understand your feelings. But everyone in the mansion knows that the small garden is a private domain given to mother by father. It is wrong for you to destroy the large area of ​​peonies that mother has carefully cultivated without telling her."

Su Yun bit her lip and did not answer, with a slight dissatisfaction in her eyes. Su Lian wanted to defend her: "Second sister, please don't embarrass third sister. In the end, it was my fault. If I hadn't mentioned that peonies are beautiful, third sister wouldn't..."

Su Lian's voice was mixed when she spoke. She looked childish and didn't seem to be pretentious. However, Su He remembered that in her previous life, when the Su family was framed and imprisoned by the Lu family, the two sisters Su Yun and Su Lian ran out of the house in the chaos and knelt down in front of Lu Zhili, who was already the Minister of Rites at that time. They were willing to sacrifice everything to save their lives and asked him to find a way to rescue Aunt Luo and Aunt Mei. Before

dying, people always try to find a way to make a living for themselves.

Su He did not feel angry, but just felt it was not worth it.

Their mother treated them well. In terms of life, as long as she had something, she would buy them a share. It has been like this since they were young. The only thing that Su Yun and Su Lian had a conflict with their mother was the dowry.

They wanted the same dowry as Su He.

Su Ronghai was also particularly troubled.

Not to mention that legitimate daughters and illegitimate daughters are different, they were unwilling to let the two concubines raise their daughters under Wang's lap after discussion. Now they only hope that Su Ronghai can give them equal dowries to raise their status.

"Since it was proposed by the fourth sister, you should correct your mistakes. How about starting tomorrow, the two sisters take care of the flowers and plants in the small garden for a few days? You need patience to take care of flowers and plants. If you are not careful and the flowers and plants are uncomfortable, a leaf that shouldn't fall falls, or a beautiful flower withers, I'm sure mother will punish you." Su He's tone was gentle from beginning to end. Even if Su Yun was dissatisfied, she couldn't bite the bullet and go back.

Besides, it was indeed wrong for her to break the flower branches.

I have been to the small garden several times before, but I didn't expect Su He to come back today and be caught red-handed.

"My second sister taught me that Su Lian and I will come together tomorrow."

Su Yun tightly grasped the flower branch and bit her lips tightly, as if she was resentful. It was not until Su Lian pulled her away and left the small garden that she came back to her senses.

"What's the wind blowing today? She came back with me? Did she hear that Lord Lu wanted to marry Su's daughter and came back to inquire about the news? What's so good about those flowers and plants? Are they worth it for me and you to take care of them together?"

Su Lian pondered for a while, and saw from the side that Su Yun's face was not very good.

She knew that Su Yun's appearance and talent were similar to her second sister's, and the difference between them was too big. Su He had just shown off his power in front of her, so she must not be happy.

Su Lian tried to comfort her, patted her on the back and continued, "Okay, third sister, when you get married, who can stand in front of you so arrogantly and teach you at will? Even your eldest brother and sister-in-law have to speak humbly, so just bear with it for the next few days."

Su Yun smiled mockingly when she heard this.

She looked down at the peony with its petals in full bloom. If it wasn't for the fact that it was in full bloom, who would like such a vulgar thing? It was just a few flowers and plants, but Wang Shi was still guarding them like treasures?

Su Yun couldn't help but think of Lord Lu again. She was unsure and felt that the marriage proposal was a bit mysterious. Lord Lu had only met her a few times, so why would he propose marriage for no reason?

But besides her, there was only Su Lian in the mansion.

Su Lian was inferior to her in every way, so how could she be pleasing to him?

Or Su He, who was married...

Lord Lu was a man of integrity, so why would he want a married woman?

Thinking of this, Su Yun's mood improved a little.

She turned around and said goodbye to Su Lian, and returned to Mulanju to see Aunt Luo.

In the small garden, Zhao Wanrong had someone clean up the scattered branches and leaves. When she saw only two peonies left, she couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "Mother has always been kind, so she let them not understand the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children. Now it seems that she was wrong!"

Su He frowned: "My sisters have their own future, sister-in-law, don't worry."

"Oh, they are not my biological sisters, why should I worry so much? I am just afraid that they will behave improperly after getting married and lose the face of our Su family!"

Su He looked calm, looking at the direction where the two people left and muttered: "Who knows."

In the previous life, it was Lu Zhili and Lu Yanxiu who framed the Su family, which made Su Yun and Su Lian take the most dangerous way to save themselves. This time, they are prepared. Even if the two brothers think of ways to calculate, they can never put the entire Su family to death, so Su Yun and Su Lian will naturally not come up with some dirty ways to save themselves. Tonight

is light and windless.

Wang held a banquet in the main hall and invited the whole family to dinner.

Because they had met in the small garden, Su Yun was always indifferent to Su He. After the meal, the sisters didn't say a word.

During the meal, Su Ronghai wanted to mention Lu Huaihe's marriage proposal, but was stopped by Wang. Su Ronghai knew what she meant, so he decided to wait until the meal was over and ask Ah He's opinion before talking about it. After

the meal, Su Ronghai and Wang called Su He to the study to talk. When they asked about Lu Huaihe, Su He was a little nervous.

"Ah He, we want to know what you think. Are you in love with Lord Lu?"

"In love with you?"

Su He lowered her eyebrows and didn't know what to say for a while.

There was probably no love between her and Lu Huaihe.

At least not in her opinion.

But the words he had said...

"My dear daughter, you know the relationship between Lu Huaihe and Lu Yanxiu. If you really marry him, it's worth it if he truly loves you. I'm just afraid that he has ulterior motives and might want to play with you..."
