The maid behind her couldn't help but feel sorry for her: "Why didn't the girl tell the truth?" If you can get the help of the Yuan girl, you will not be so badly abused in the house. ”

"I and the girl of the Yuan family just met in Pingshui, how can I have such a big face for her to stand up for me?"

Another maid couldn't help but accost: "There's no need to be in a hurry, the girl only needs to be friendly with Wei Guogong's daughter, and those people in the house won't be so blatant." ”

Su Yao nodded and led the maids into the second gate.

Sure enough, I saw a middle-aged servant woman come over and saluted Su Yao, this salute was quite perfunctory, and her expression was not respectful.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that she doesn't take Su Yao in her eyes.

But Su Yao didn't dare to hold it up in front of her, after all, she was the one who could be used in front of her grandmother.

"Why did you come back at this time? The old lady has been waiting for a long time. ”

Su Yao lowered her head: "The carriage I was riding broke down halfway, so it was delayed."

The man didn't ask her if she was hurt, and said with some dissatisfaction on his face: "Since you are back, I went to ask the old lady to say goodbye, don't let her wait for a long time." ”

"I'll go."

The man snorted coldly, turned around and left, not waiting for her.

Su Yao had long been used to it, and followed as if she was resigned.

Along the way, I met many maids, but those people didn't pay much attention to her, only greeted the person in front of her, and when they saw her, they passed without squinting.

In the old lady's courtyard, there are many maids, and a few of them are even dressed brighter than Su Yao.

Su Yao didn't dare to go in at that time, and only after someone reported it did she enter the house nervously.

The room was filled with an indescribable smell, Su Yao didn't dare to show anything unusual, she didn't even dare to raise her head, and when she entered the door, she respectfully greeted the old man above.

Before he got up, he heard a crisp laugh: "I heard that the eldest sister went to Puji Temple to ask for a peace charm?" Have you begged for it? ”

Su Yao didn't even need to look up to know that this was her sister-in-law, Su Zhuo.

The two of them are concubines and concubines, according to common sense, she should be more favored, but she doesn't have an outstanding appearance, and she was regarded as an abandoned son by her family early.

On the other hand, her sister, even if she is a concubine, has a good appearance, and she is too much better than her.

Su Yao took out the peace charm that she asked for: "I was about to give it to my grandmother." ”

Qian frowned impatiently: "Why did you go for so long?" ”

Su Yao explained the breakdown of the carriage again.

Qian was still a little impatient: "This carriage was fine, but it will break if you use it, but it's really unlucky." ”

"The eldest sister encountered such an unfortunate thing on the road, and I thought that this peace charm was not good for my mother, so it was better to give it to me, and let the eldest sister ask for one tomorrow."

"Ah Zhuo is going to enter the palace as a nobleman, how can he use this peace charm that is stained with bad luck? Just let your eldest sister ask for one more. ”

Su Yao was a little embarrassed: "The peace charm of Puji Temple can only be asked for one a day, but the day after tomorrow is the eldest princess's flower-viewing banquet......"

Before he finished speaking, he was robbed by Su Zhuo: "You don't have to worry about the eldest sister for the flower viewing banquet." ”

Qian agreed: "With your appearance, it will be a shame for the family to go." ”

Su Yao didn't dare to refute Qian's words, and withdrew with red eyes.

When I arrived outside the courtyard, I saw my two maids waiting anxiously, and I couldn't help but shed tears.

"Girl, what's going on?"

"Grandmother asked me to ask for two more peace charms, and I can't go to the flower feast."

"Why don't you move the Yuan girl out? Just say that she made an appointment, and the old lady didn't dare to stop her. ”

The Qian family was originally a peasant woman, and she was the most bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, Su Yao's mother was originally a merchant girl, and it was Su Yi and the Qian family who fell in love with Su Yao's foreign family's money, so they coaxed Su Yaoniang into clever words.

If the Qian family heard that Su Yao had become acquainted with Wei Guogong's daughter, he would definitely spare no effort to let her go to the banquet, how could he still prevent her from going to the banquet?

Su Yao herself is very clear about this.

"I don't have much friendship with the Yuan girl, if I mention her rashly, won't I cause trouble for her?"

She did have the idea of befriending Yuan Lingchen, and she almost moved her out, but when she said it, she retreated again, and finally didn't say anything.

Su Yao walked back in a low mood, but a smug voice sounded behind her.

"Why is the eldest sister still here?"

Su Zhuo's hand was playing with the peace charm she had invited, with a somewhat wanton smile on his face.

Su Yao didn't want to talk to her, so she was about to leave, but she was stopped first, and it was the maid brought by Su Zhuo.

"If you have met it, why rush to leave? I still want to talk to my sister......"

"I'm already like this, what else do you want?"

Su Zhuo saw the tears in the corners of her eyes, and shook her head with a sigh: "Can't you go to the flower banquet, you're crying?" But my sister is also good for you? Just like you, if you go there, you will be ridiculed for nothing......"

"What does this have to do with you?"

"I'm sorry for my sister."

After Su Zhuo finished speaking, he casually threw the peace charm in his hand aside: "Sister, let's go and ask for the peace charm honestly, don't worry about the flower appreciation banquet." ”

Hearing her say this, Su Yao calmed down.

"You do everything you can to prevent me from going to the flower feast, but it's because I'm a concubine, you're a concubine, even if your mother is corrected now, you can't get rid of the fact that you're a concubine."

"Shut up, your mother is just a merchant girl, and my uncle is a loyal and brave uncle, do you still want to compare with me?"

Su Zhuo's mother Feng is a good concubine, and Su Yao's mother has not come out for many years before she was admitted to the door.

But then there was Su Yao first, and her mother was in poor health after giving birth.

And Feng's elder brother later joined the army, because he was very brave, he even made some contributions, big and small, and his status in the army gradually rose, even faintly surpassing Su Yi.

After Su Yaoniang died, Feng was corrected.

Because of her mother's strength, Feng's status in the Su family has risen, even if she has a concubine, she is more favored than Su Yao who is a merchant girl.

can be favored and favored, outside the Su family, Su Zhuo's status can always only be a concubine, and Su Yao is not welcomed at home even if she has an ordinary face.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is also the daughter of Jian Anbo's original match.

This is also the reason why Su Zhuo wanted to kill her.

Su Yao looked at the angry Su Zhuo, and there was a faint sense of happiness in her heart, which even made her temporarily forget her fear of Su Zhuo: "You are weak-hearted?" ”

"You-" Su Zhuo raised his hand and was about to fan it, but was avoided by Su Yao.

When she struck again, the maidservant behind Su Yao was already in front of her.

"My sister's election is coming, but I have to think clearly, if there is a reputation for bullying my eldest sister and I lose the election, what should I do?"
