In the Moxiang Courtyard, Su Wanqiu wrote a post, and the ink was stained on the rice paper, outlining a shallow and elegant arc, and she especially enjoyed such a quiet and leisurely time.

"Miss, the slave saw that the second miss and the fourth miss quarreled again." Chu Yu carried the food box and opened the curtain to enter, just now Su Wanqiu told her to go to the kitchen to get some snacks, but she didn't want to see Su Yunqian and Su Xueyi bumping into each other on the road.

"Oh? Why did you quarrel? Su Wanqiu put down the brush and asked with some curiosity.

"The jasper hairpin that the fourth lady bought from the Treasure Pavilion was shown to the second lady, and the second lady ridiculed her for the smell of copper, and the slave maid felt funny when she heard it." Chu Yu said with a smile.

Su Wanqiu smiled, the monthly silver of Miss Fuzhong is the same, but Su Xueyi, as the biological daughter of the eldest lady, is treated very differently, the jewelry in this treasure pavilion is expensive, Su Yunqian naturally can't afford it, seeing that Su Xueyi has money, it is not surprising that she hates Su Xueyi.

The best things in the mansion are all on Su Xueyi's body, so she naturally thinks that no one in the mansion can have a better one than her, including relatives.

Chu Yu opened the food box, held it in front of Su Wanqiu, and said, "Miss, this osmanthus roll is still hot." ”

Su Wanqiu picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, took a bite gently, only felt sweet and glutinous, but not greasy, and couldn't help but say: "This taste is a little different from before." ”

The osmanthus rolls made by the chef in Fuzhong before were more than sweet and greasy but lacked tenacity, but today they were particularly delicious, and Su Wanqiu couldn't help but eat a few more pieces.

"Do you like it or don't you like it?" Qingyue's gentle voice as clear as a mountain stream bluestone came from outside the house, and then the man walked in, looking at Su Wanqiu with a smile on his face.

The man was dressed in a long brocade robe, his long hair and blue crown were tied up, his jade-like face was smiling, and he was looking at Su Wanqiu with burning eyes, this person was Su Wanqiu's brother, Pingyang Hou Su Yu's eldest son, Su Jin.

In his previous life, Su Jin died tragically in the hands of the fourth prince Ming Rong, and the grief of losing his brother was precipitated and solidified in Su Wanqiu's heart for a long time.

She secretly tightened her fingers and calmed down, then she looked at Su Jin with a smile and said, "I didn't expect that my eldest brother would go to Jiangdu to study and learn such a first-hand cooking skill." ”

Su Jin suddenly laughed, shook his head and said: "This is not what I did, it was made by the cook I brought back from Jiangdu, I know that you like these, and it will be good to have a small kitchen in the yard in the future." ”

After that, he turned his head and said, "Yueniang, come in." ”

A plainly dressed woman walked in, Su Wanqiu raised her eyes to look at her, and saw that her face was ordinary, but there was a gentle aura on her body.

"Her pastries are also well-known in Jiangdu, do you know what others say?" Su Jin asked with a smile.

Su Wanqiu shook her head.

"Others say that the pastries she makes have the taste of a mother."

In just one sentence, Su Wanqiu's heart warmed, and although the look on her face was flat, the joy in her eyes could not be concealed: "Thank you, big brother." ”

After sending Yueniang down, Su Jin sat opposite Su Wanqiu, her long eyebrows like a sword frowning slightly, and she said with concern: "I heard that you were injured, didn't you?" Where did it hurt? ”

"I'm fine—"

Her voice stopped abruptly, Su Jin's hand had already covered her forehead, gently stroked her wound, and said a little melancholy: "This is disfigured in late autumn, what if I can't marry in the future?" ”

Su Wanqiu avoided Su Jin's hand and glanced at Su Jin: "Big brother still has the heart to joke with me, and he doesn't want to think about what the son of Rongguo Mansion should think if he sees me like this?" ”

Su Jin was stunned: "What? ”

"Presumably the eldest brother doesn't know yet, Rong Guogong is going to pick a daughter-in-law from our house to go back." Su Wanqiu smiled slightly, "Is the big brother aware of the collapse of the attic?" ”

"I just came back from Jiangdu, and I haven't had time to investigate this, could it be that the collapse of this attic is not an accident?" Su Jin's eyebrows twisted.

"Big brother doesn't have to send someone to investigate, the planks in the attic have been broken and then spliced together, I go up like this, it's strange that the attic doesn't collapse." What Su Wanqiu said was the result of Su Jin's investigation in her previous life, and it was obvious that someone wanted to target Su Wanqiu.

When Su Jin heard this, there was a thin layer of anger on his face, and he naturally understood.

Rong Guogong intends to marry Pingyang Hou, so he naturally wants to marry Pingyang Hou's concubine, and there are only two concubines in Pingyang Hou's mansion, namely Su Wanqiu and Su Xueyi.

In terms of identity, both of them are daughters-in-law, but Su Wanqiu is the daughter of Su Yu's original and Xie family, and in terms of age, Su Wanqiu is Su Xueyi's third sister, and it should be Su Wanqiu who married first.

So this family business is naturally not Su Xueyi's turn, but what if Su Wanqiu is dead and disabled, or is she disfigured? The son of the Rongguo Mansion could only marry Su Xueyi home.

Su Jin looked at the scar on Su Wanqiu's forehead, and frowned: "I'm afraid that they won't be able to make a plan, and if they have another plan, as long as you are still alive, it will not be her turn in this family business." ”

"But-" Su Jin said, the words changed again, "I have also seen the second son of the Rongguo Mansion, and he is really not a good person, if you marry in the past, you will not be at peace if you think about it." ”

"There is always a way to have both worlds." Su Wanqiu smiled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, which made people lose their minds suddenly, "By the way, the eldest brother came from Jiangdu this time, not just brought Yueniang back, right?" ”

Su Jin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Yes, I also brought you two brocades unique to Jiangdu." ”

"Then thank you big brother, but I only need one, and the other one will be given to the fourth sister." A treacherous smile appeared on Su Wanqiu's face, she raised her hand to signal Su Jin to come over, and whispered something in Su Jin's ear.

……

The news of Su Jin's return from a study tour in Jiangdu spread all over the house, and everyone gathered in the old lady's Rongsong Courtyard.

The old lady looked at Su Jin with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a month, Jin'er has grown a lot taller." ”

The eldest lady on the side also echoed: "Yes, I see Jin'er becoming more and more handsome, and she is very similar to the old man when he was young." ”

Su Jin showed a faint smile on her face and said, "Old lady, I came back from Jiangdu this time, but I brought a lot of gifts." ”

Saying that, Su Jin instructed the people around her to bring the things, it was some jewelry, everyone had a copy, Su Wanqiu was a delicate begonia hairpin, she smiled slightly, put it away, and the rest of the people also put away their own share.

Su Jin sighed.

The old lady couldn't help but wonder: "What's the matter?" Are you a little upset? ”

"It's not, it's just that I got a brocade from Jiangdu with great difficulty, but this one is the only one, and I want to come here so many people, and it's not to be distributed to anyone, so I'm a little distressed."
