Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Elders Exit
Inside the carriage, Su Wanxiao was carefully checking what she had gotten.
"How? This auction didn't come in vain! ”
Ye Junmo looked at her with a smile on the side, he originally wanted to help Su Wanxiao, but with the existence of Ye Zichen, he was happy and relaxed.
"Of course it wasn't in vain." Su Wanxiao packed up her things and looked at him with a smile, "What's more, I didn't spend a tael of silver this time." ”
That's what makes her the happiest.
"You didn't spend any money, but my imperial nephew should be heartbroken."
"It was something he volunteered to do." Su Wanxiao pursed her lips and put the things away carefully, "Just stop at the street in front, and I'll walk back to Su Mansion by myself, so as not to fall into the mouth." ”
"Lest you fall into the tongue?" Ye Junmo raised his eyebrows, "Isn't there enough to do about the things that fall into the mouth?" ”
After getting off the carriage, Su Wanxiao and the maid Xianghe returned to the mansion, but as soon as they stepped in, they felt the unusual atmosphere.
There were suddenly more servants in the house, and they all looked hurried, and they all looked very busy.
Su Wanxiao was stunned for a while, and grabbed a little maid casually.
"What the hell is going on in the house? Why is everyone so flustered? ”
When the little maid saw that the person talking to her was Su Wanxiao, she immediately stammered a little: "Miss Hui's words, the four elders came out of the customs half an hour ago, and they didn't find you, so they called the head of the family to the main hall, and they were talking at this time!" ”
The elders are finally out of the customs? Then there is finally a solution to my own affairs.
"Okay, I see, you go first! Remember, don't tell anyone about my homecoming. The little maid nodded and hurried away.
Seeing this, Xianghe looked at Su Wanxiao: "Miss, are you going to the main hall now?" ”
Su Wanxiao hooked her lips slightly: "Naturally, I am going to the main hall, otherwise, how can I let a few elders know what happened to me?" ”
These four elders of the Su Mansion are very important to Su Wanxiao, and if they learn that she is not the head of the family now, they will definitely not let Su Hai go.
Xianghe followed Su Wanxiao and walked quickly towards the main hall, and before the two entered the door, they heard the sound of talking coming from the room, and there were still some quarrels after listening carefully.
Su Wanxiao smiled, stretched out her hand and pushed the door in.
"I said why is it so lively, it turns out that the elders are all out of the customs."
Su Wanxiao raised her face, and gave a salute to the four elders without being humble or arrogant, and when she looked up at Su Hai, Su Hai's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"I've seen the head of the house."
"What? Ever seen the head of the house? Is this true? ”
When the four elders first came out of the customs, they heard a rumor that Su Wanxiao was no longer the head of the Su family, and now the new head of the family was Su Hai, and before they had time to ask Su Hai for verification, Su Wanxiao walked in.
"This matter is a long story, a few elders ......" Su Hai stood up and wanted to explain, who would have thought that these four elders would not pay attention to him at all.
"Wan Xiao, tell me what the hell is going on?"
Su Wan glanced at the nervous Su Hai, and told the four elders all about their experiences during this time.
"You mean to say that it is not your own will to step down from the position of head of the family at all?" After hearing this, the second elder immediately glared at Su Hai next to him.
Su Hai was a little flustered in the face of several elders: "It's not like that, I'm the head of this family for the sake of Wan Xiao, my mother has just passed away, Wan Xiao is in extreme sadness, and I have no time to take care of the affairs in the Su Mansion, so I took over this mess." ”
"Wan Xiao, is it true?"
The Great Elder, who had not spoken, looked at Su Wanxiao and spoke.
"Well...... this" Su Wanxiao deliberately dragged out the end and observed Su Hai's face.
I saw that Su Hai kept talking to her, squeezing her eyebrows, and the small movements in her hands did not stop, hinting everywhere that she should not talk nonsense.
"Why does the head of the house look at me like this? I see that the head of the family has a bad face, why don't you go find a Lang Zhong and take a pulse? ”
"You ......" Su Wanxiao's sarcasm made Su Hai speechless, so he could only bow his head silently.
"Back to the words of the elders, I am indeed very sad about the death of my mother, but I have no time to take care of Su Fu because of this matter, and there is another secret in my mother's affairs."
What's hidden? The faces of the four elders became unpleasant and serious.
"I was inexplicably tied to a pillar in the square, almost burned at the stake, not only that, but my heart was also broken, and my spiritual power was lost, and it took me a while to recover to get to where I am now."
Su Wanxiao calmly repeated what happened to her.
"And my mother died to protect me, I don't know who I offended in this Su Mansion, just recovered a little spiritual power, what greeted me was a steady stream of assassinations, I finally escaped through all the hardships, but my mother died to protect me."
Several elders had already stood up angrily when they heard her say that their hearts were broken, and when they learned that Xia Banyun was not alive, the grumpy four elders raised their teacups and fell to the ground.
"Who is so bold as to assassinate the head of the family?" The four elders widened their eyes and roared angrily.
"I know who it is," Su Wan smiled bitterly and shook her head, "There are too many people involved in this matter, and I don't want to pursue it anymore." ”
It's good that she didn't say that, as soon as she said this, several elders put all their suspicious eyes on Su Hai's body.
Su Hai was already weak-hearted, and at this time, he was stared at again, his head was almost buried in his neck, and he had long lost the arrogance he had when facing Su Wanxiao.
"There is such a thing in the mansion, who else will dare to come to the banquet in the Su Mansion in the future? And this matter has not been thoroughly investigated until now, you can still sit firmly in the position of the head of the family? ”
The four elders stepped forward and picked up Su Hai's collar, and although Su Hai had resentment in his heart, he still endured it.
"It's a long story, and it can't be explained in a few words."
"Okay," the fourth elder sat back down, "then we'll wait here for you to explain, and when we're done explaining, we can leave." ”
Su Hai wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, he could handle it easily when he faced Su Wanxiao before, but now that there were suddenly four more chiefs, he really didn't know how to deal with it.
"Four elders," Su Wanxiao stepped forward, "Wan Xiao has been the head of the family for so long before, and now she also wants to take a break, and the current position of the head of the family is dispensable for Wan Xiao." ”
Of little consequence? Su Hai secretly despised it in his heart, as long as he sat in the position of the head of the family, he would have countless resources in his hands, who would not be blushing with such a status?
