Su Yunqian snorted coldly, turned her head, and muttered: "How can others go to the attic unharmed, but she collapses when she goes to this attic, she must be a bad star!" ”

The old lady looked displeased and glanced at Su Yunqian, who also kept silent.

"yes, why is everyone else fine, but it collapsed in my attic?" Su Wanqiu was already sitting in her place at this time, she didn't seem to be able to hear the ridicule in Su Yunqian's words, her fingers touched the cold tea cup, and smiled faintly.

Hearing this, the old lady frowned, Su Wanqiu obviously had something to say, could it be that the collapse of the attic was not an accident, but man-made? Thinking of this, her eyes involuntarily looked at the eldest lady.

In this family, those who can have such means and thoughts do not think about second people.

The eldest lady raised her eyes and looked at Su Wanqiu, slightly surprised, in her impression, Su Wanqiu has always been quiet and silent, this kind of occasion is generally silent, just like the fifth lady Su Yunwan, now not only opened her mouth generously, but also pointed the finger at herself.

"I've sent someone to check, the attic is in disrepair, and there are people who don't notice it for a while, I have severely punished them for giving you anger in the late autumn, and fortunately the late autumn is blessed, otherwise these minions will not be a pity even if they die." The eldest lady smiled gently.

"Mother is serious, it's naturally nothing to be injured in late autumn, but if this kind of thing is left unchecked, these subordinates will not be able to restrain it in the future, and it will hurt me, what if the old lady is injured?" Su Wanqiu smiled softly, but there was a bit of coldness in that smile.

The eldest lady frowned, Su Wanqiu's words clearly wanted to punish those minions, but they were all her people, and this time she was also on her orders, if she was punishing, she was afraid that she would lose people's hearts, so she said: "What do you want to do in Wanqiu?" ”

Su Wanqiu was a little surprised on her face, then shook her head, and said gently: "Mother, Wanqiu has never been in charge of the house, where do you know how to deal with this kind of thing." ”

Su Wanqiu's voice was soft and gentle, and she pushed the matter back to the eldest lady, who was a little angry in her heart, but she still had a calm and gentle smile on her face, which showed the depth of her city.

"What late autumn said is right, these subordinates will each be punished with twenty rods." The eldest lady said, this time I have to rely on Su Wanqiu, this sharp-toothed girl takes advantage of every word, but she handed over this wicked person to her to do it, and let her punish her.

Su Wanqiu's smile became more and more gentle and docile: "I'm just afraid that it's inappropriate." ”

The so-called cane punishment depends on the strength of the torturer, and the eldest lady must deliberately release the water, and when the time comes, twenty canes will go down, and those people will be unscathed.

"Why not?"

"Late autumn knows that her mother is kind, but if she is not punished severely, it will not hurt for other subordinates to snub her master, isn't it a mess? It is better to punish in time now than to regret it in the future. ”

The old lady listened to the two of you coming and going, sighed slightly, and said, "Just follow what the late autumn said." "She still can't understand anything, instead of letting the two of them continue to argue with you and me, it is better to make a decision directly, not to mention, what Su Wanqiu said is not bad.

The eldest lady's face changed suddenly, and she immediately returned to her normal and gentle appearance, and said with a smile: "What the old lady said is that these people will be punished with fifty canes." ”

Su Wanqiu lowered her eyes slightly, unable to see any emotion.

Fifty canes don't seem to sound the same, but this time it was the old lady who spoke herself, and presumably the eldest lady didn't dare to release the water.

She ordered people to do things, and when they succeeded, they punished them in turn, and even if those people still obeyed the eldest lady, they would not be as loyal as ever.

Although it didn't cause any substantial blow to the eldest lady, it was enough to make her heart stagnant.

After a few more gossips in Rongsong Temple, the old lady felt a headache and discomfort, so she asked everyone to retreat, and the maid beside her helped her into the inner room.

Everyone is accustomed to it, the old lady's health has not been very good, always have a headache and brain fever, especially on rainy days, Linchuan is located in the south, and there is a drizzle from time to time.

The rest of the people left one after another, but Su Wanqiu stayed in Rongsong Courtyard.

Mother Cui, who was beside the old lady, stepped forward and said, "Please leave the third lady first, the old lady needs to rest for a while." ”

"Mother Cui, I saw a secret recipe in ancient books that can relieve headaches, it should alleviate the old lady's condition, and let me try it." Su Wanqiu said seriously.

Cui's mother went into the inner room to report to the old lady, and then she came out again and said with a smile: "Please let the third lady in." ”

When Su Wanqiu opened the curtain and walked in, she saw the old lady leaning softly on the couch, her face was extremely pale, her brows were furrowed tightly, and she thought that she was tormented by pain.

Su Wanqiu took a few steps forward lightly, walked to the old lady's side, raised her hand and gently kneaded the acupuncture points on the old lady's head, the technique was gentle and skillful, and after a while, the old lady's complexion eased slightly.

In the previous life, because of the old lady's illness, Su Wanqiu specially invited the emperor's imperial doctor to diagnose and treat the old lady, and the imperial doctor did not prescribe medicine, but taught Su Wanqiu this set of methods, the old lady's condition really improved a lot, but unfortunately the old lady was already terminally ill at that time, and Su Wanqiu only delayed for a few months.

"How is the old lady feeling now?" Su Wanqiu stopped her movements and asked softly.

The old lady's face was still a little pale, but it was much better than before, and she smiled and said, "It's a lot better, I didn't know that you still have this heart." ”

"Late autumn just accidentally saw this method from an ancient book, thinking that the old lady had been plagued by headaches, so she wrote it down." Su Wanqiu is docile and authentic.

The old lady's gaze at Su Wanqiu softened more and more, she used to only think that this child was obedient and well-behaved, but now she found that she was not only smart and clever, but also rare to have such filial piety.

"Bring me my jade bracelet." The old lady turned her head and instructed Cui's mother.

After a while, Cui's mother came in with a small carved box, the carved patterns on the sunken wooden box were heavy and beautiful, and the box alone should be expensive, not to mention the things in the box.

The old lady opened the box, and what was placed inside was a bracelet of mutton fat and white jade, which was very good in color and luster, and it must be worth a lot of money.

The old lady took Su Wanqiu's hand and put the bracelet on Su Wanqiu's hand, Su Wanqiu lowered her head and smiled, did not refuse, only thanked: "Thank you, old lady." ”

Cui's mother also looked at Su Wanqiu with a smile, the old lady has always been kind and very good to several young ladies, but this kind of grace, the third lady is still unique, I want to have the support of the old lady, even if the biological mother is not there, the third lady will never be treated badly in the house.
