Chapter 67: The Past Days
Smoke and Rain Pavilion
Su Xinran sat down on the chair with a slump of the whole person, clutching the cup in his hand, gasping hard, and his beautiful and delicate face was as white as paper, as if he was about to faint.
Dongye, the maid on the side, couldn't help but feel worried when she saw Su Xinran's situation, and said with concern: "Third Miss, you have been like this for a whole day, the slave and maid are very worried about you, don't be angry because of the eldest lady, it's not worth it."
It's okay not to mention Su Yexi, but when Su Yexi is mentioned, Su Xinran's eyes are full of hatred, and his fingers shake the cup in his hand even harder.
"Smack!"
She slammed the cup on the ground, it was torn apart, and the water stains were scattered everywhere, and Dongye was so frightened that her body trembled, and she hurriedly shouted: "Blue Bing, quickly, clean up the debris on the ground."
"Yes, the slave is here."
A little maid hurriedly ran into the room and cleaned up the debris on the ground.
Dongye took a deep breath and said cautiously: "Little, Miss, don't be angry, the eldest lady is just lucky to get so many rewards, she can't compare to Miss you at all, besides, didn't Miss also get a reward, and ......"
Su Xinran swept a glance towards her, and the cold eyes like poisonous snakes shivered unconsciously when she saw Dongye, and lowered her head, from head to toe, as if immersed in a cold pool, cold.
Su Xinran's eyes were full of coldness, and he said lightly: "When will you come back on the winter solstice?"
Dongye was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the third miss suddenly meant by mentioning the winter solstice, so she didn't dare to think about it, and said respectfully: "Back to the third miss, in another month, the winter solstice will be back."
"yes, okay."
After the words fell, Su Xinran took a new cup, poured a cup of tea and drank it.
"Third Miss, Fourth Miss is here."
A little maid reported, and after a while, I saw Su Qingrong walk in angrily, sit on the chair, and huff: "What kind of trick did Su Yexi play this time?" can get so many rewards, the third sister only has such a hairpin, not even half of hers, obviously the third sister should get those rewards, why should she? ”
She said to herself, not noticing Su Xinran's gloomy face at all.
Su Qingrong stood up, paced back and forth, and said dissatisfiedly: "Third sister, there are still ......"
Shut up! ”
Suddenly, distraught, Su Xinran stood up and splashed the water in the cup on her face fiercely, and the expression on her face was terrifying at the moment.
Su Qingrong was stunned, she looked at the third sister blankly, the water droplets fell down her chin drop by drop, this was the first time she had seen her look so terrible, the third sister in her impression has always been gentle and dignified, gentle and considerate, and never spoke loudly, how can it be at this moment-
"Qingrong, don't blame your third sister."
Suddenly, Aunt Gu walked in, took out her handkerchief and handed it to Su Qingrong, and said, "Qingrong, don't blame your third sister, she is too angry, let her calm down."
Su Qingrong silently took the handkerchief, lowered her head to wipe away the water droplets on her face and the tears under her eyes, but the terrifying look in Su Xin's mind lingered.
Gu Qingwei frowned and said, "Qingrong, you go back first, let Xinran calm down alone."
Su Qingrong nodded and said, "Yes, Aunt Gu, then I'll leave first, and I'll come to see the third sister in a few days."
"Mother, this Su Yexi is really hateful, she deliberately injured my wrist on the top of the main hall and couldn't dance, everything I carefully prepared was ruined by her, the person who originally received such a rich reward should be me, if I don't break her body into ten thousand pieces, it is really difficult to solve the hatred in my heart!"
Su Xinran gritted his teeth and said, the unwillingness and resentment in his heart were all expressed on his face.
Gu Qingwei's brows were furrowed, her eyes were condensed, she had originally planned a game, but now she didn't use it, and let Su Yexi, a little slut, be rewarded for nothing, it was really cheap for her!
"No, I must find a way to take all those rewards and belong to me, I must not cheapen her so easily, and I must not let her ride on my head!"
"Smack!"
Gu Qingwei slapped one hand on the table and scolded: "You are the most favored third lady in the dignified mansion, your father loves you, everyone praises you, and you live a better life than your daughter, but for a little profit, you are so out of proportion, you are really in vain in my cultivation of you!"
"However, I am just unwilling, all along, although I am just a concubine, but I am better than Su Yexi everywhere, what if she is the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she has always been my concubine's foil, but now, she has let her ride on my head, it is really hateful!"
Su Xinran said with resentment.
Gu Qingwei snorted coldly and said, "What if she gets a reward?" What if it's a concubine? Your father doesn't like her, your father's favorite daughter is you, who can have the last laugh doesn't depend on who your father relies on more! Don't forget, she also has a girl who is immoral and is grounded in Xunyou Garden! ”
"Mother's ......"
Hearing these words, the expression on Su Xinran's face stretched again, and her eyes were full of victorious smiles: "That's right, no matter how my eldest sister tosses, she is always an unfavored concubine, and she can't compare to me everywhere, I have a father and a mother, but she has a mother who is immoral and is grounded in Xunyou Garden!"
"But ......"
Su Xinran's eyes flashed with cold light: "After all, she is a concubine, although she is not favored by her father, she is favored by her grandmother, and she has a maternal grandfather who is not listed as one of the three princes, which is not good for us, it seems that it is time to do it!"
Ice Heart Pavilion
"Wow, Miss, what a lot of beautiful jewelry and clothes."
Zhihua's eyes lit up as he looked at the contents of each sealed box, and his happy eyebrows and eyes were almost open.
Looking at the gold and silver treasures that filled the entire room, silk and satin, Mama Hua was even more joyful: "Miss, you have raised your eyebrows, and you have received so many rewards, which can be regarded as making those who look down on Miss envious and jealous."
Compared with the elation of the two, Su Yexi seemed to be lacking in interest and never came back to his senses.
Mama Hua noticed that something was wrong with her, and came forward to ask, "Miss, do you have something on your mind?"
"Mama, my mother has been confined to Xunyou Garden, how many years has this been?" She asked.
Madame, Madame was grounded when you were five years old, and you have been locked up for eight years. ”
Mama Hua recalled.
Back then, after Shen Jing gave birth to her, she had lived a few years of leisurely and harmonious life, but one night, she was found by her subordinates to have a private meeting with other men at the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so the subordinate told Su Zhengnan about it.
Su Zhengnan didn't believe it at first, but later the people in the house became more and more popular, Su Zhengnan was skeptical, and one day Shen Jing went to Jing'an Temple to pray for blessings, and Su Zhengnan quietly followed her.
Sure enough, seeing her in the wing room of Jing'an Temple sharing a bed with a man, Su Zhengnan was angry because of her family power. couldn't do anything to her, in a fit of anger, he confined Shen Jing to Xunyou Garden, didn't allow anyone to visit her, didn't allow her to take a step out of the garden, and delivered her food on time every day.
"Eight Years ......"
Since I was born, I haven't been with my daughter for a few years, and I was sent away, and I have been lonely for eight years, what a sad time!
However, the biggest hobby of these people who hold the power of life and death is to wantonly trample on other people's lives and lives.
In the last life, Shen Jing died of illness in the ninth year of her imprisonment, at that time, she was very disliked by Gu Qingwei and Su Xinran, and she didn't like her mother very much, and after Shen Jing died, she was nothing.
Mama Hua tried her best to persuade her to be filial piety to Shen Jing, her biological mother died, and if her daughter was indifferent, she would be laughed at by the world.
So, she wore filial piety for Shen Jing and guarded her for seven days and seven nights until she was buried.
So, everyone said that Su Yexi, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was an extremely filial woman, who kept filial piety for her mother for seven days and seven nights, and for a long time, her reputation was also spread.
Thinking about it now, she really has to thank Mama Hua, if it wasn't for Mama Hua trying her best to persuade her, otherwise she would definitely regret it now and hate herself.
"Zhihua, get ready, let's go see Grandmother."
Su Yexi had an idea in his heart.
Matsujudo
Su Yexi walked to the old lady's courtyard with Zhihua and motioned for Zhihua to stay outside.
As soon as I walked in, I saw the old lady reclining on the chair with her eyes closed, with a turned Buddhist scripture on her body, she seemed to have something on her mind, and her eyebrows were always furrowed.
Mama Zhuang was rubbing her temples for her, while Ye Lian was pinching her palms.
Seeing Su Yexi come in, Ye Lian and Mama Zhuang were just about to stand up, Su Yexi made a gesture and motioned for them not to make a sound.
Su Yexi walked to Mama Zhuang's side and took her hand, and carefully rubbed her temples for the old lady.
After pressing it for a while, the old lady opened her eyes, turned her head, and saw Su Yexi with her head hanging down in front of her, her eyebrows stretched a little, and said, "I said that the feeling of how to press is a little different, it turns out that you are here."
Su Yexi had a docile smile floating on her face, and said, "Grandmother rarely gets people massaged, I see that grandmother seems to have something on her mind, so it's better to talk to her granddaughter."
Hearing this, the old lady patted Su Yexi's hand, and said softly: "It seems that my Xi'er is really different from before, and I can see that my grandmother has something on her mind."
Su Yexi smiled slightly, and said softly: "Is grandmother a little sad because her granddaughter has been rewarded by the emperor?"
The old lady frowned, sighed and said: "Yes, Xi'er, being able to get the emperor's reward is unprecedented among the children of our prime minister's house, and it is a blessing in the eyes of outsiders, but as the so-called blessing and misfortune depend on each other, grandmother is only afraid that this reward will bring you trouble."
Su Yexi's eyes were moist, and she comforted: "Grandmother, don't worry, granddaughter knows in her heart that these rewards are nothing more than because I saved Miss Mu's family, and the emperor rewarded me, everyone knows that no matter who it is, the emperor will reward it, grandmother rest assured."
The old lady nodded and said, "Well, Xi'er has really grown up and has her own ideas."
"Grandmother, I'm ......"
Su Yexi glanced at the old lady a few times, and then lowered her head again, looking embarrassed to speak.
