Chapter 5: The First Encounter

Sun was shocked when she heard it, although what Su Lanyi said was sensational, it didn't necessarily come true, her face was pale, "Are you threatening me?" I have been in charge of the Su family for many years, and the affairs of the house are not as simple as you think. If you get power and can't do it well, it will make people laugh and lose your big teeth, and you will blame me, an aunt, for not teaching well. ”

Su Lanyi's eyelids moved slightly, and after all, she suppressed the hatred in her heart, "Auntie is also right, I am still young, and I can't be a family member." But I am the eldest daughter, if I don't learn to manage the affairs of the family, how can I have the means to gain a foothold in the family in the future? I know that my aunt has worked hard all these years, so I just need the shops and forests that my mother brought when she got married. I've already given in, my aunt won't disagree, right? ”

This was said lightly, but the Sun family was dissatisfied, and the shops that Jiang Yufang brought at the beginning were all excellent. Over the years, she has made a lot of profits, and she has also profited from it and filled a lot of purses. If you want her to let her go now, wouldn't it be like cutting off her flesh?

But I can't just refuse to go, after thinking for a while, Sun said: "It turned out that I wanted to run a shop, and such a request for a concubine would not be unkind, but the big shop was handed over to you, so I was afraid that it would not be well managed. Why don't you think of a compromise method, I'll choose a few easy and fun shops for you to take care of, just think of it as a leisure to find a fun? ”

Su Lanyi could hear that on the surface, the Sun family was giving her the steps, but secretly it was a delaying tactic. It's a pity that she didn't want to follow Sun's thoughts today, "If Aunt Niang had a heart, there would be no rumors." It's just that I should take care of my mother's things personally, so as not to lose my power and spare a useless shelf. ”

The old lady twisted the Buddhist beads in her hand, as if she remembered something, "Lan Yi is right, she has to take care of the housework after all, and it is naturally better to use her own family's things, and she will not fall into the hands of others." ”

Sun hated it very much, and he couldn't refute it clearly, so he had to think about how to perfunctory this matter in his heart.

However, it didn't take long for Sun to suddenly think about it, and a smile appeared on his face, but he was no longer entangled, "The concubine has been bothering the old lady for so long, and the old lady is tired when she thinks about it, so the concubine will go back and take care of those land deeds, so that you can be happy." ”

The old lady's hand paused, and she nodded quickly, "Just remember your identity, this Su family will eventually have to be given to Lan Yi." ”

"The concubine remembered." Sun gritted his teeth very softly. Today's humiliation, of course, she must remember it well, to the death!

After the Sun family left, Doctor Mu also got up to say goodbye, but the old lady stopped him, "I have wronged you all these years, and the Sun family will not have to pay attention to it in the future, and my grandson will also rely on you more and tell you to worry a lot." ”

Su Lanyi was a little surprised, listening to the old lady's words, Doctor Mu was not from the Sun family?

Doctor Mu was not surprised, it seemed that he had expected it, and his old god was laughing and saying, "The old man knows." The old lady is really fortunate to have a good granddaughter. ”

The old lady smiled and nodded, and did not leave anyone behind.

After Dr. Mu and Mu Jingzhi left, the old lady waved away a group of people, leaving only Su Lanyi and Mama Fang.

Su Lanyi had doubts in her heart, but before she could ask, she heard the old lady say: "Doctor Mu is a credible person, he is quite dignified in Changye City, and he has good medical skills, and he has a wide range of friends, you can use him as a teacher in the future." ”

Su Lanyi responded, "Sun Er understands, it's just that Sun Er has already been tutored, and I am afraid that I will lose Dr. Mu's face." ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's you, he won't complain anyway."

Su Lanyi was puzzled, "What does the old lady mean by this?" ”

The old lady looked at her deeply, "Think about how you should call me." ”

"Grandmother."

"Dr. Mu has a daughter who married into the Jiang family a few years ago. Although there are several layers of relationship with the Huaiyang Jiang family, there is some kinship in the end. Because of his average background, he can only make a side room, but the housewife is domineering, and life is not easy. ”

The old lady said slowly, but Su Lanyi only understood the word "Jiang family".

She wondered in her heart, "How can I interfere in the affairs of the back house?" Dr. Mu has asked for more than this. ”

The old lady continued to explain: "Doctor Mu also has a son who went to the head of the Jiang family, and he originally wanted to use the face of me, an old woman, to intercede with the Jiang family. Find a good future for his son, so that his daughter can rely on him, and what he says in her husband's house can also be avoided from suffering, do you understand? ”

That's what happened. Su Lanyi is not very clear about the relationship between the Daze family over the years, but she vaguely heard that the Huaiyang Jiang family is getting bigger and bigger, and there is a tendency to surpass the Su family. In this way, it would be a good thing if Dr. Mu's son could gain a firm foothold in the Jiang family.

"It's a pity that my wife and son worship Buddha all year round, and I only exchange letters with the Jiang family - Yu Fang's matter has long made the Jiang family dissatisfied, after all, she is a relative of the Jiang family. Now that you're back, don't lose the help of the Jiang family. ”

The old lady just said a few words, but Su Lanyi had already heard the clues, she knew the relationship between the Jiang family and the Su family, and the two families supported each other when their mother was still alive, and it was a good story. But the Su family occupied a prosperous wharf in Huaiyang earlier, and after the mother went, the Su family abandoned the Jiang family, and even turned to support the Sun family's mother's family.

All these things have made the Su family and the Jiang family not harmonious. But the old lady can still communicate with the Jiang family, and even speak, is it because of her mother?

Su Lanyi didn't quite understand, in the past, she had infinite scenery, but she would only be sad and sad, twisting the pipa strings and playing the wind and moon. She didn't know anything about the family. Now that I think about it, isn't this because of Sun's killing? In the name of loving his daughter-in-law, he raised her into a useless straw bale. The reason why Jing Chi abandoned her was not without reason.

She bowed her head slightly, thinking about the blood relatives of the Jiang family, "My grandson would like to invite a few uncles and cousins to come to the reception banquet, but unfortunately Huaiyang is far away, and I will not be able to arrive in ten days." ”

The old lady smiled and nodded, very satisfied with her, "Coincidentally, you have a cousin who is a guest in Changye City. It's just that Su and Jiang are not in harmony, and he is not good at making a big show. Now I live in the house of my classmates. ”

Su Lanyi asked, "Which mansion is it?" ”

The old lady paused for a moment, and then said, "The hugely rich Song family." On the side, you can go and find out by yourself, those two people have good character and can be acquainted. ”

"Yes, my grandson understands."

Then Su Lanyi lived in the former courtyard under the arrangement of the old lady - because of the old lady, the courtyard that was originally to be occupied by others was still left to her.

When they parted, the old lady said to her: "Now that you have become the eldest daughter of the Su family, remember to be cautious in your every move." ”

Su Lanyi naturally nodded. She has died once, and she is even more interested in her life now. And the Sun family was reluctant to hand over power, but later he agreed, which is really strange.

"This was the residence of the eldest lady, and in the past, the eldest lady was not there, and the old lady was also properly picked up. It has to be cleaned every day or two so that the eldest lady can stay when she comes back. ”

Mama Fang's face was gentle, and there were a number of maids behind her, seemingly to pick a few successful people for Su Lanyi.

Su Lanyi felt slightly bitter in her heart, this huge Su family, I am afraid that only my grandmother is thinking of her, "People go to the empty building, but it is useless to keep it." And after I left, I'm afraid that Xiao thought there were a lot of people here. ”

Mama Fang choked for a moment, but she didn't hide it, "Miss, this courtyard is set up with the specifications of a concubine, and many young ladies want to move in." ”

Su Lanyi was surprised, "Now that I'm back, those younger brothers and sisters should also come to see me." The subordinates next to me, Mama Fang is in charge and helps me pick a few clever ones. ”

Mama Fang is the old lady's confidant, and Su Lanyi trusts her.

Mama Fang didn't shirk either, and then clicked a few people in the group behind her who seemed to be smart and sensible. After a short time, six maids and several servants stood up, and Mama Fang said, "A few of you will serve in Fenglan Ju in the future, the eldest lady is the eldest daughter of our Su family, and you must rely on the eldest lady in everything." If anyone does not understand the rules, they will all be sold. ”

A few people who were selected responded to the call.

Mama Fang nodded with satisfaction, and said to Su Lanyi: "Miss, the old slave still has to go to the back kitchen to do a little bit of work, so he will retire." ”

Su Lanyi didn't allow anything, and for a while, only she and a few maids were left in the courtyard. Because the yard is often cleaned, there is no need to work hard to tidy up.

"You are all out and waiting, and I will call you if I need it."

"Yes, Miss."

The time was close to noon, although there were a few concubines and concubines in the Su family in addition to Su Duwei, but there was no one who came to greet at this time. Su Lanyi is not in a hurry, she used to be kind to those people, but now that they know that they are back, they must still think that they are the same as before.

"So you're the eldest lady of this family." The sour voice came from outside the window, it was Zhang Hong, who followed secretly, and the person who helped her deliver the letter yesterday.

Su Lanyi poured herself a cup of tea and looked calm, "It's fake." ”

Zhang Hong sneered, "Whatever you say, with a daughter from a family, I will definitely reap a lot of benefits in the future." The master will be wronged by himself to make a nursing home for you. ”

Saying that, he didn't wait for Su Lanyi to answer, and went to check the yard.

At noon on this day, the old lady's descendants all went to the quiet garden for dinner. Su Lanyi is also among them.

By the time she arrived, there were already many concubines and concubines waiting. Su Lanyi had no intention of being false with them, and he was quite amiable after a meal.

After the meal, the old lady did not speak, and no one dared to leave. The maid served tea and snacks again, and everyone understood that it was fake to accompany the old lady to eat, and it was true to meet Su Lanyi.

Seeing that the juniors were so well-behaved, the old lady comforted her, and said with a smile: "Today, your eldest sister has returned home, although I haven't seen you for four years, the brotherhood should not be forgotten." Today's small gathering, so that your eldest sister can recognize it. ”

After she finished speaking, all the grandchildren also smiled and agreed. But in the end, I haven't seen each other for many years, and we are speechless.

The old lady saw it in her eyes but didn't speak, and only let the grandmother beside her help her to the back hall.
