When I went back, I met my mother with an anxious face, and Su Yu's heart sank.

Xiang Mom's face was panicked: "Miss, Miss! Siqi ran away! ”

"How did you run?" Su Yu frowned: "Didn't you let you tie her up?" ”

"It's all to blame on the slaves!" Xiang Mother backhanded herself a slap in the face: "The slave shouldn't be soft-hearted, she was soft-hearted when Si Qi begged for a few words of affection and loosened her tie-"

Su Yu only felt a headache: "Didn't you confess, plug her mouth, don't let her speak?" ”

Xiang mother's face of self-blame and guilt: "Slave maid...... The slave saw her like that...... It's really uncomfortable...... Thinking about the love for so many years...... I just wanted to let her catch her breath and drink ......"

Si Qin couldn't bear to see her mother embarrassed, and interjected: "Miss, do you want to report to the official?" ”

"That's it, it's not easy to put this matter on the bright side," Su Yu rubbed his eyebrows: "Mom, you go back to Su's house to borrow someone to find Si Qi, Si Qin, you help me study ink-"

Xiang went out with red eyes to his mother, Su Yu calmed down, and according to the previous method, he attached the letter to Tang Yun to the letter to Pei Sanlang, and wrote a note to Wei Jiulang, and finally drew a portrait of Si Qi, but after he was dry, he only handed the letter to Si Qin: "You take my post to Wei's house, and tell Wei Jiulang that this letter must be sent out quickly." A little later, she was afraid that it would be too late.

Si Qin looked at Si Qi's portrait: "What about Si Qi?" ”

Su Yu hesitated for a while, thought about it, and gave the portrait to Si Qin: "Tell him not to make a noise, borrow his family's subordinates to find it, don't use private soldiers, let alone the prince's people." "The Wei family is a military general, a nobleman, and the mansion has a certain number of private soldiers, Wei Jiulang is the head of the prince's guard, and he can also use the prince's men and horses - but Su Yu remembered, "Later" Wei Jiulang was impeached and dismissed, one reason was that he was said to use public weapons for private purposes, and she wanted Wei Jiulang to help, but she couldn't hurt Wei Jiulang because of herself, otherwise, in addition to Mrs. Tang, I was afraid that my own aunt would also have a dislike for her.

While they were looking for Si Qi everywhere, Old Madam Xue and Xia Chuqing finally moved into the Xue Mansion.

When Old Madam Xue summoned someone to come over and let Su Yu pass, Xiang Mother was cautiously replying to Dao Siqi and still disappeared.

Can't find someone with great fanfare, the capital is so big, who knows where Si Qi is hiding, the only thing that is confirmed is that Si Qi is still in the city and has not left the city.

Su Yu simply wanted to report to the official regardless of it, or offer a reward to find someone outside, even if it angered Si Qi, it didn't matter, it didn't matter if she told the matter, anyway, if she was embarrassed at that time, it would be a big deal for her to leave the capital for a few years, as for Xue Muqing's reputation and future, what does it have to do with her.

In contrast, Si Qi's betrayal and escape made her mind more.

The little maid who came to summon was frightened by Su Yu's face, but she still repeated that Mrs. Xue asked Su Yu to go over, Su Yu took a deep breath, she hated Xue Muqing no matter how much she hated Xia Chuqing, and no matter how much she was dissatisfied with Mrs. Xue, others had just moved over, and it was not good for people to directly grab the handle, nodded at the little girl, and signaled herself to go over in a while.

Turning around and asking Xiang's mother to go back to the house and reflect on it behind closed doors, Su Yu still asked Si Qin to follow him.

On the way, I checked with Si Qin, all the account books have been sorted out, and the people below have also informed them, as long as they give an order, they can hand over the account books.

Si Qin was worried: "Even if Old Madam Xue comes here, she shouldn't be able to say goodbye to Miss as soon as she comes." ”

Su Yu shook his head slightly: "You don't understand. "Even if Old Madam Xue doesn't want it herself, Su Yu won't want to care about the Xue family's affairs, let alone ...... Xia Chuqing is afraid that he will not settle down.

Thinking of what the Xue family had become after a few years of defeat by Xia Chuqing, Su Yu unconsciously felt a little relieved, she thought, this time she must not let Xia Chuqing mess up by herself - she should find a way to help Xia Chuqing, otherwise with Xia Chuqing's ability, when will the Xue family be defeated.

She has to have people cheer Xia Chuqing on the fire in a timely manner - as long as it is not obvious, Xia Chuqing may not be able to detect it, Old Madam Xue has just lost her husband, and she is getting older, sooner or later she will lose energy, Xue Muqing doesn't care about these things, Su Yu wants to succeed, in fact, it is not difficult.

Of course, first of all, this housekeeper has to find a way to get into Xia Chuqing's hands.

Su Yu's good mood disappeared the moment he stepped into Old Madam Xue's courtyard.

They looked for Si Qi everywhere, but Si Qi was nowhere to be seen, Su Yu also said how he didn't know that Si Qi had this ability before, but it turned out that Si Qi ran to Mrs. Xue's side early in the morning, far away in front of her - she would hide.

Su Yu groaned - I just don't know what Si Qi said in order to win the trust of Old Madam Xue.

Si Qi saw Su Xuan, in the end, he was still a little weak-hearted, and hid behind people, Su Xuan glanced at her, and then stopped looking at her, after being calculated by Si Qi, no matter what kind of master-servant friendship, it had long disappeared, thinking that he had raised Si Qi by his side for so many years and actually raised a white-eyed wolf, Su Xuan didn't want to hold his breath in his heart.

Old Madam Xue has not looked very good since she saw Su Su, and at this moment, seeing that Si Qi was still a little dodging in the face of Su Su, her face sank by three points, and people pushed Si Qi to the front, as if she wanted to confront Su Su: "Su Shi, do you know why I came to you?" ”

Of course Su Yu knew, but he didn't bother to pay attention: "I don't know." ”

"You-" Old Madam Xue pointed at her, looked around again, and finally let the others retreat, leaving only Xia Chuqing and Si Qi.

In the end, she pointed to Siqin beside Su Yu: "Let your people step down too." ”

"No need," Su Yu looked coldly at her appearance of wanting to get angry and having scruples: "There is nothing that can't be said in front of everyone." ”

"Let's go! If you want to be embarrassed, you will do it," Old Madam Xue waved her hand: "You did a good job!" ”

Su Yu didn't answer, she just wanted to reprimand her for her affair with Xue Muqing, what was there to say-besides, who knew what Si Qi said to Old Madam Xue, what if she said something that annoyed Old Madam Xue, she was too lazy to be angry with others.

Su Yu didn't answer, and Old Madam Xue said to herself: "The Su family is also a decent person, how can they teach a daughter like you!" Lose all feeling of shame! ”

"How did the Su family teach their daughter, it was not the turn of outsiders to say, "Originally, although it was calculated, but the matter has come to this point, Su Yu and Xue Muqing are also at fault, but Old Madam Xue wants to blame all the faults on Su Yu, how can Su Yu tolerate it: "I also want to know, the Xue family is also a family that can be on the stage, even if it is a side branch, it should know etiquette, how can it raise such unfilial descendants!" It's simply a loss of face for the ancestors of the Xue family! When I turned around and saw Mrs. Xue Shilang, maybe I should really ask. ”

When Su Yu mentioned the name of the Xue family's descendant, Old Madam Xue couldn't help but be a little jealous, but she still refused to let Su Yu go: "If it weren't for you, how could Qing'er do such a thing!" ”

"He was originally such a person, but if it was someone else, what difference do you think it would be?" Su Yu sneered, she was so tired that every time she met with Mrs. Xue, she talked about things in the room: "When I married him, he promised not to take a concubine, but what happened?" said that he got drunk and got into trouble with others, how much integrity do you think he can have in such a person? Don't talk about how innocent he is, if he doesn't want to, who can stop him? Is it difficult or am I forcing him to fail? ”

"How can that be the same!" Old Madam Xue pointed at Su Yu: "You have been married for half a year, and you have no news in your stomach, what happened to Qing'er taking a concubine?" ”

"I heard that you were married for five years before you had Xue Muqing," Su Yu sneered: "At that time, why didn't you think about taking a concubine, Old Madam Xue?" When she heard this statement before marriage, she also wanted to say that her future mother-in-law was not the kind of person who would take a concubine for her son, and she should be able to tricky Xue Muqing not to accept a concubine, but as a result, it was a big disappointment.

Old Madam Xue was choked by Su Yu's words, and could only force herself to say: "How can that be the same!" ”

"That's right, how can it be the same," Su Yu laughed softly: "It's none of your business, you always have a sense of being upright when you ask others...... That's right, my daughter-in-law has been a mother-in-law for many years, and I always want to shake off my majesty. ”

"You don't pull me into the water! You just want to take revenge on the previous Chu Qing, why do you need to calculate Qing'er like this! Old Madam Xue was on pins and needles by her: "Besides, no matter what, even if you feel that you are right, you shouldn't look for someone outside with great fanfare!" Our family is in the filial piety period, if you make such a fuss, others will inevitably be suspicious, and when the time comes, what do you let Qing'er do! Do you want to ruin Qing'er's future! What's in it for you to do this! ”

Su Yu wanted to say, what does Xue Muqing's future have to do with her! After thinking about it, she also sent the people of the Xue family to find Si Qi, and it was not surprising that Mrs. Xue knew: "Since you know that I am looking for someone, and the person is by your side, but you don't send it back, can you blame me if the matter is big?" ”

Su Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "In the end...... The husband is still not as important as the son, if something like this happens, what you care about first is Xue Muqing's future, not Xue Muqing's unfilial piety, you really want to burn a stick of incense for the deceased Master Xue. ”

"You don't use words to pressure me," Old Madam Xue is not confident enough: "You don't think about it, I only ask you, do you admit it or not!" ”

"It doesn't matter if I admit it or not, anyway, even if I'm wrong, compared to Xue Muqing, it's lighter," Su Yu seemed to smile: "I want to know, if I admit my mistake, what do you want?" ”

"Since you know that you are wrong," Old Madam Xue said in a hurry, "Then you will naturally be punished." ”

Su Yu was noncommittal: "What do you want to punish." ”

"Just fine...... It's good to punish you for thinking about it behind closed doors," Old Madam Xue was not very confident: "Anyway, in the filial piety period, it will be your filial piety." ”

Su Yu originally planned to wait for her to say it and then refute it, but when she saw that this was the case, she realized it.

It's just that she just doesn't know Mrs. Xue's words - jokes, even if she thinks about it behind closed doors, it should be Xue Muqing who thinks about it behind closed doors!

Old Madam Xue ignored her: "Since you have thought about it behind closed doors...... What about the family...... I'll take care of it for you for the time being. ”

"It took a long time to get to the point," Su Yu didn't care: "The account books have already been sorted out, and I'll have someone send them to you tomorrow." ”

"Don't be unhappy that something like this happened...... You can't—" Old Madam Xue froze: "What did you just say?" ”

"Don't you just want to be a steward, why bother so much nonsense," Su Yu sneered: "Do you think I am willing to take over the mess of the Xue family?" I heard that you are coming, and I have sorted out the account books in the morning, and I don't have to wait for tomorrow, I will have someone send them when I get back. ”

"As for thinking about it behind closed doors," Su Yu glanced at Si Qi and Xia Chuqing: "Whoever is at fault has thought behind closed doors, I admit that I am not at fault." ”

"I'm going back to have someone send you the account book, and I'm leaving," Su Yu didn't bother to talk to them, turned around to leave, and caught a glimpse of Si Qi, then turned around, pointed at Si Qi and said to Old Madam Xue: "Since Old Madam Xue has your wish, can you hand over this subordinate who betrays the lord to me?" ”

Si Qi was so frightened that he knelt down towards Old Madam Xue: "Old Madam help!" ”

"How?" Old Madam Xue raised her eyebrows: "You want to make a death without proof?" ”

"Don't you want to?" Su Yu meant something: "After all...... What she knows, if she says it, Xue Muqing's career will come to an end. ”

Although Mrs. Xue didn't believe in Su Hui very much, she also looked at Si Qi suspiciously after listening to Su Hui's words, Si Qi begged for mercy again and again, Xia Chuqing finally seized the opportunity to interject: "Madam has been in love with her for many years, and she will deal with it when she says it, and she is not afraid of the cold hearts of the people around her." ”

Su Yu didn't look at Xia Chuqing, but just looked at Mrs. Xue: "After many years of love but betraying the master, such a maid, it is also a scourge to keep it, she has followed me for so many years, she betrayed when she said betrayal, who would dare to use her?" Besides, I don't know how she sued Mrs. Xue, but Mrs. Xue, you might as well ask her how much she did in this matter? ”

Old Madam Xue hesitated a little: "Since that's the case, then you can take her away-"

"Auntie, help!" Seeing that there was no way to ask for help, Si Qi begged for Xia Chuqing.

The corners of Su Yu's mouth raised slightly-she knew that Si Qi and Xia Chuqing must be related!

Xia Chuqing hesitated for a while, Si Qi had already rushed over and hugged her, she was startled, and quickly came back to her senses: "Old lady, let's spare her this time, after all, in the filial piety period, it should be regarded as accumulating yin virtue for the first master." ”

Su Yu smiled: "Aunt Xia's words are funny, what Si Qi did, in the final analysis, hurt Xue Muqing, since you have become Xue Muqing's concubine, then you should not tolerate Si Qi, but help her intercede...... It really makes people wonder, did you instruct what she did? ”

"Madame, be careful!" Xia Chuqing's face was righteous and awe-inspiring: "I don't know what happened, I just don't want to make trouble in the filial piety period, for fear of damaging the yin virtue of the first master." Besides, if I really have something to do with Si Qi, at this moment, in order to avoid suspicion, I should be silent, since I dare to speak, I naturally have a clear conscience. ”

Su Yu knew, even if he doubted it, he couldn't find evidence, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it: "Okay, okay, if you want to keep her, keep it, kindly remind you, I have raised her for so many years, she said betrayal, she betrayed once, it is hard to guarantee that there will not be a second time, I said that in front, Si Qi is a person who betrays the master, I will not care, from now on, no matter what she does, it has nothing to do with me, whoever wants to keep her, who will be responsible for what happens when the time comes, but don't push it on me." ”
