Ruan Shi walked over and sat down next to Su Wanyue gently, looking at her without speaking.

Su Wanyue was facing the door with her back to the door at the moment, sitting quietly at the table alone, looking at a teacup on the table, and was in a daze. Even when Nguyen was sitting next to her, she was motionless and her posture did not change in the slightest.

Ruan Shi looked at Su Wanyue, who was as sluggish as a puppeteer, sighed in his heart, and said softly: "Yue'er, why do you ignore your mother?" ”

Su Wanyue was still stunned and didn't speak.

Ruan Shi said again: "Did you suffer any grievances at the banquet?" ”

As soon as these words came out, it was as if the sluice gates had been closed. Su Wanyue's face immediately became vivid, she raised her head and looked at Ruan's well-maintained soft beauty by the moonlight outside the window, and she cried out with a "wow".

"Mother's ......"

Su Wanyue's immature and beautiful little face was full of tears, she sobbed, her little shoulders trembled, and she didn't look wronged.

Ruan's heart was distressed, her daughter has always been well-behaved and sensible, how could she not know the children she taught herself? As a concubine, she will be born with more grievances than her concubine, dozens or even hundreds of times. Her Yue'er has known how to behave since she was a child, and she has always lived a trembling life, and she has never been so out of shape.

Now crying so unscrupulously in front of her, I think I have really been wronged. Otherwise, how could she be so uncomfortable?

Ruan Shi stretched out his hand to wrap around Su Wanyue, took her into his arms, stretched out a hand and patted her back gently, and said softly: "It's okay, Yue'er, it's all over, don't cry......"

Su Wanyue thought about her performance at the palace banquet, and thought of the second prince's kind but somewhat alienated attitude, and couldn't help but feel sad.

All this obviously shouldn't be like this, she had already planned to make a splash at the palace banquet and use her talent to conquer the sons and buddies present. Of course, the most important thing is that she still wants to show her best side to the second prince.

She wanted him to know that she was a hundred, a thousand times better than Su Wanqing's slut. Even if Su Wanqing's status is more noble than her, she is just a good-for-nothing fool.

But why? In the end, she became the one who was ashamed?

Although Ruan Guifei protected her in the end, when she left, she clearly saw the mocking and teasing eyes in the eyes of many people. These eyes were like long knives that stabbed her in the heart, making her feel like she couldn't breathe.

finally seized an opportunity to enter the palace, but she was so uncompromising, and it also affected her father's reputation...... Thinking of Su Jianlian's disappointed eyes towards her, Su Wanyue's heart ached again.

She cried loudly in Ruan's soft embrace, as if she wanted to convert all these grievances into tears and expel them from her body.

Ruan Shi patted Su Wanyue to comfort her, and gave Qiu Lian a look. Qiu Lian immediately understood, and reached out to cover the door of the room, preventing some curious snooping from the distance outside.

And the maid who had been guarding the door just now stretched her neck to listen to the movement inside, and under Qiu Lian's cold gaze, she silently retracted her neck, and An An stood at her post. But she couldn't help muttering in her heart, this Qiu Lian just dared to be so presumptuous because she was the eldest girl next to the second lady.

But Qiu Lian doesn't want to think about it, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a maid after all, the identities of the two of them are equal, why should she point fingers in front of her? I didn't commit a crime, I was beaten by the second lady. She saw that Qiu Lian would lose the protection of the second lady sooner or later, and when the time came, look at how rampant she is!

Qiu Lian didn't care what this little maid thought in her heart, and stood aside silently.

The red marks on her face were still there, and her face was still swollen high, looking very terrifying. It's not that she didn't notice the suspicious and playful eyes of those maids when she came, she bullied them a lot for the sake of the Ruan family on weekdays. Now that this group of people see that they seem to have fallen out of favor, they are naturally gloating.

This is the human heart.

Qiu Lian leaned against the door and closed her eyes slightly. She has been displaced since she was a child, sold here by traffickers and became a little beggar on the street, and she has long seen through the indifference and ruthlessness of the world. Until that day, when she met Ruan, it was like the warmest sunshine in winter, and it fell straight into her heart.

It was Nguyen who brought her home, gave her a name, gave her clothes to wear, and gave her food. At that time, Ruan's was just a personal maid by the side of the housewife, but because she was fully trusted by the housewife, she was able to exercise many times more rights than ordinary maids.

Since then, she has vowed to stay by Nguyen's side for the rest of her life and serve her. If it weren't for Nguyen, she would have starved to death or froze to death on the streets.

The pain on her face came one after another, and Qiu Lian frowned slightly. I'll go back to my room later, and I'll put on some more ointment.

In the room, after Su Wanyue cried a lot, her mood had gradually stabilized. She sobbed slightly, raised her red and swollen eyes to look at Ruan, and said in a choked voice, "Mother, ......"

Ruan Shi stretched out his hand and touched her head, and said softly, "Are you better?" ”

Su Wanyue nodded.

Ruan Shi let go of her gently, and Qiu Lian knew that it was okay when she heard that there was no sound inside. She walked into the room, lit the lamp for the two of them, and was about to retreat.

Ruan Shi suddenly stopped her and said, "Qiu Lian, there is a small jar of ointment on the dresser in my room, you can take it and wipe it." ”

Qiu Lian was stunned, the ointment was given to Mrs. by the old man before. She couldn't help but say, "Madam, this is too precious...... Qiu Lian can just rub some medicine. ”

Only then did Su Wanyue notice that Qiu Lian's originally delicate face was swollen high. When I saw it, I was beaten.

Qiu Lian treats her very well on weekdays, Su Wanyue asked a little angrily: "Sister Qiu Lian, who is so excessive that you actually beat you?" ”

Qiu Lian glanced at Ruan, a trace of embarrassment crossed her eyes, she didn't speak, and lowered her head slightly.

Ruan Shi sighed and said, "I hit it." ”

Su Wanyue looked at her in surprise and said, "Mother, how could you ......?"

Ruan Shi shook his head and said softly, "I'll talk to you about this later." She turned her head to look at Qiu Lian again and said, "Qiu Lian, you can use it." No matter how good things are, they are not as important as a living person, and you don't have to mind too much. Go down, rest early, and don't have to wait later. ”

After Qiu Lian heard this, her heart was moved, and she replied in a low voice: "Yes." Then he turned and left.

Ruan Shi looked at Su Wanyue, who was a little anxious, and couldn't help but laugh. This girl, just now she was still crying like this, and in a blink of an eye, she began to nervous a maid.

But it's no wonder that Qiu Lian was by her side when she was born. When she neglected her daughter in order to compete for power, Qiu Lian was by her side. Yue'er has always regarded Qiu Lian as her sister, no wonder she is in a hurry.

Ruan Shi coaxed: "Don't worry, listen to what your mother tells you." In fact, my mother didn't want to do this, but she was caught by Su Wanqing......"

As she spoke, she suddenly noticed the clothes on Su Wanyue's body, and she was stunned for a moment.

"Yue'er, isn't this dress the one you gave to Su Wanqing a few days ago? Why is it that it is in you now? Where are your original garments? ”

Ruan's question suddenly pulled Su Wanyue's thoughts back, and she immediately thought of what happened at the banquet again.

Su Wanyue clenched her teeth, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"My daughter was going to perform on stage, but I didn't expect that a housekeeper accidentally spilled the tea in the cup on her daughter, and her daughter's clothes were wet, and her daughter was stupid at that time. After that, Su Wanqing's maid Taoyao came over to take me to change my clothes. Who knows, it was precisely this set of clothes that would get out of control later...... If it weren't for this accident, my daughter would have thought that it was designed by Su Wanqing's little slut. ”

Ruan Shi looked at Su Wanyue, who was full of grievances, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Was it really just an accident? Then why did Su Wanqing take this set of clothes with her, but she didn't wear them?

Ruan Shi thought for a while, and then asked, "Then what kind of clothes is Su Wanqing wearing tonight?" ”

Speaking of this, Su Wanyue gritted her teeth with hatred and said: "It's strange to say, that little slut actually wore a light blue dress tonight, which is very good-looking." Yue'er has observed, and the skirt has the sign of apricot blossoms on it, which is clearly the clothes of the Liuli Pavilion! ”

She paused, and then said: "Besides, my daughter heard the housekeeper next to her talking about it, saying that the little slut was wearing a new style this year!" Many people couldn't buy it if they wanted to, but they didn't expect it to be taken away by Su Wanqing. That skirt is worth at least 10,000 taels! Mother, tell me, how can Su Wanqing have so much money to afford such an expensive dress? ”

After hearing this, Nguyen couldn't help but fall into deep thought. She knows how much money is distributed every month in the Prime Minister's mansion. Su Wanqing naturally wouldn't have so much silver to buy such a flashy skirt. Could it be that the master gave it to her?

Ruan thought about it, and felt that it was unlikely. Su Jianlian never cared about the affairs of the ladies in the house, even if she wanted to help Su Wanqing buy clothes, she would definitely handle her and ask her for silver. After all, she is in charge of the account books in the house now.

It's not a master, then who else is so rich and rich, and is willing to spend thousands of dollars to buy such a skirt for Su Wanqing's slut?

Ruan Shi restrained his thoughts, kept this matter in his heart, and stopped dwelling on it.

She looked at Su Wanyue and comforted: "It's okay, didn't the second prince help you?" You have to thank them. ”

Su Wanyue said aggrievedly: "The second prince helped Yue'er out of politeness, but Yue'er is so embarrassed, how can she have the face to see the second prince again in the future?" ”

Ruan Shi glared at her and said, "How can you be so unproductive? How can you become the second princess? ”

Su Wanyue bit her lip and stopped talking.

Ruan Shi whispered: "I see, it is not an accident that you changed clothes, think about it, that little slut already has better clothes, why should she bring that set?" Didn't someone help her? ”

Su Wanyue was taken aback, and also said in a low voice: "Could it be ...... That slut knows the secret in his clothes? ”

Ruan Shi looked at her incomprehensibly and said, "It's hard to say. ”

"What then?"

"Don't worry, that slut has no evidence at all, besides, you have already suffered a loss this time, I don't think she will come to trouble you. You have to be careful not to anger your big sister. This little slut is crazy, but he can do everything. ”

"Yes, Yue'er knows."

"Rest early, you're tired today, don't think about it so much."

"Mother, you should rest early."

Early the next morning, in the Rose Garden. Su Wanqing was lazily sitting on her recliner eating strawberries, and Tao Yao suddenly ran in.

Before I saw him, I heard his voice first: "Miss, Miss, the second prince of Nalaoshzi said that he wants to invite you to swim in the lake!" ”
