Chapter 253: Backtracking
Su Qianyun opened her mouth and couldn't say a word anymore.
Seeing this, Su Lao made persistent efforts and said, "You two have remembered it for me!" Don't recognize her again! Don't see her again. You know? ”
Su Qianyun nodded mechanically and said yes. And Su Xiyun said: "Yes! Grandmother, granddaughter got it. ”
Hearing this, Su Lao didn't believe the two granddaughters in front of her very much, she frowned, and suddenly said: "Okay, since you have all agreed, then from tomorrow, you don't have to take another step out of the house, and take care of how to take charge of the feed at home!" I'm not young anymore, and it's time to put my mind away. ”
This is very obvious house arrest. Xi is in charge of the feed. That's just a pretext, Su Lao himself firmly controls Bofu Zhongfeng in his own hands, manages a large family, even the eldest lady is a decoration, can it be the turn of Su Xiyun sisters?
Su Xiyun knew very well in her heart, so she was even more disdainful of Su Lao. But she didn't show it on her face at all, she just said respectfully with Su Qianyun: "Yes!" Grandmother. ”
Su Lao was finally satisfied. She nodded and was about to let Sister Su Xiyun retreat, when she suddenly remembered something again: "I heard that you forced Princess Xian and Young Lady Qin to pay 400,000 taels of silver to listen to your eldest sister sing?" When he said this, Su Lao's eyes lit up. Obviously, she had something else in mind.
400,000 taels of silver! Su Lao worked hard, and the private money he had saved for a lifetime was only so much, but Su Daiyun just sang on stage for a while, and he actually got so much silver! How can this not make her old man blush?
If you don't want to try to scrape these silvers over, then it's not Su Lao's style!
Su Xiyun saw her expression in her eyes, and she was even more disdainful of her in her heart. But he still said respectfully on his face: "Yes, Princess Xian, they want to see my eldest sister's jokes and want her to make a fool of herself in public." But her granddaughter has already redeemed her body, so naturally she will not agree. But Princess Xian and Mrs. Qin Shao didn't give up, they had to watch my eldest sister sing, grandmother, how could you say that your granddaughter could agree? Isn't this a loss of face for our Cheng'an Mansion? But the granddaughter and the second sister had no way to refuse them. So we had to make this decision, 200,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, we originally thought that they would definitely not agree. ”
"How do you know that Princess Xian and Mrs. Qin would rather pay the 200,000 taels of silver to watch this scene, there is no way, the granddaughter has to force them to take out the silver, so that my eldest sister can go on stage to perform, this is also a helpless thing, because even if the granddaughter didn't force them to take out the forty taels of silver, they would also force my eldest sister to sing."
When Su Xiyun said this, she paused, she noticed that Su Lao's attentive listener was not angry that she still called Su Daiyun for the eldest sister in her words, seeing this scene, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and continued: "But the granddaughter has cleared everyone else." Grandmother, don't worry, only Princess Xian and Young Lady Qin heard it with their own ears, and even the people in the palace were invited out by me. ”
Su Lao still frowned: "So what?" This matter has been spread through ups and downs, all over the city, and there is no difference between seeing and not seeing. ”
Su Xiyun shook her head and said: "Naturally, there is a difference, and there is still a big difference between seeing it with your own eyes and the legend." Legends are nothing more than a matter of catching no shadows, after all, no one has seen them. But seeing it with your own eyes is different, and they will spread it even harder. ”
Su Lao nodded, her face was finally not so ugly, she nodded, and said, "This is also a blessing in misfortune." Xiyun, you've done a good job of this. ”
Su Xiyun smiled faintly: "This is your usual education, grandmother." ”
Su Lao was comfortable with this sycophant, and she almost immediately wanted to praise Su Xiyun for a few words, but another big thing in her heart overshadowed this matter, and she immediately turned her head and said, "What about the 400,000 taels of silver now?" ”
She had finally said her only purpose for tonight.
Su Xiyun sneered in her heart, but pretended to be innocent on her face: "Grandmother, that silver was obtained by her own singing, and Princess Xian and Young Lady Qin naturally gave it to her." She didn't say that the silver was handed over to her, after all, no one saw it at that time, no matter how she lied, Su Lao couldn't find someone to confront her. Therefore, Su Xiyun has no fear.
Su Lao's face instantly became ugly. So much silver, all of them are in Su Daiyun's hands!
She wanted to keep the money for herself, but she didn't want to get a reputation for being greedy, after all, it was not nice to take money from her granddaughter, and that granddaughter had been removed from the family tree.
But the temptation of 400,000 taels of silver is really great, and Su Lao will not let go of this piece of fat!
After pondering for a long time, she said with an ugly face: "Why do you want to give it to your eldest sister, shouldn't it be held by your sister?" "Vertical and wide.
actually shouted the word 'big sister' in person! Thinking of Su Lao's face just now, which forbade their sisters to call Su Daiyun the eldest sister, Su Xiyun only felt extremely ironic, but she just blinked her eyes and pretended to be unclear: "Grandmother, that's the money for the eldest sister to sing, what does it have to do with her granddaughter?" If the granddaughter took it, wouldn't it make Princess Xian and Young Lady Qin look down on her? ”
Su Lao couldn't speak anymore.
After a long time, she said lightly: "It's not a way to live in the inn, you should go and see her tomorrow, persuade her, let her come back to live!" A single weak girl, alone is quite worrying. ”
Su Xiyun was about to laugh out loud, for Su Lao's reversal and for her money! She doesn't want to think about it, how she treated Su Daiyun in the first place, at this time, she still wants to trick people to come back, and wants people to take the initiative to hand over the money to you, are you treating others as stupid?
But stupidity also has a temper, Su Xiyun believes that even if Su Daiyun comes back, she will no longer be the same person she used to be, Su Lao wants to calculate the money on her, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
"Yes, grandmother." Su Xiyun replied lightly. She suddenly had an idea in her heart, if Su Lao knew that Su Daiyun only left a small part of the money, and then gave her all the remaining hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, would Su Lao directly snatch it from her?
Su Xiyun suddenly looked forward to this scene. But at this time, Su Lao waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's not early, you two go back and rest early!" ”
Su Xiyun immediately threw away all the thoughts in her mind, answered yes happily, and left with Su Qianyun. She had been hungry for a long time, and I believed that Su Qianyun was also at this moment, and the sisters had a tacit understanding and rushed back to their own hospital.
And Xiao Lu and Ruyue had already gone to the kitchen to bring a sumptuous dinner, and the two of them went back to feast, not to mention the next two of them to take a bath, just talking about Su Lao, after the sisters left, she still sat there upright, expressionless in a daze, looking at her like that, very energetic.
"Mama Lin, what are they doing after they go back?" In the silent room, Su Lao suddenly asked.
Mama Lin, who had been standing quietly behind her, said: "Back to the old story, the second miss and the young lady seem to be very hungry, and as soon as they go back, they start to eat, and then go to take a bath, and they don't talk about anything." ”
Su Lao's cold face showed a hint of surprise: "Hungry? Didn't they eat in King Xian's Mansion today? ”
Mama Lin hurriedly said, "It should be." ”
Su Lao was silent again, and after a long time, just when Mama Lin thought that she would never say anything again, she suddenly smiled coldly: "These two girls are not stupid, and they know that it is bad intentions for people to invite them to go." As she spoke, she stood up: "It's just that every time you go out and starve for a day, it's not a way, two stupid people, they don't know how smart they are!" ”
Mama Lin stood beside her and supported her, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Su Lao turned around and went to the inner room.
Nothing was said all night.
In the early morning of the second day, Su Xiyun's sisters hurriedly had breakfast in the house, and then went to say goodbye to Su Lao, preparing to 'persuade' Su Daiyun to return home according to Su Lao's wishes.
"You two remember, no matter what method you use, you must bring her back, you know?" In Chunhui's courtyard, Su Lao, who was eating breakfast slowly, said with a serious face.
"Yes! Grandmother! The two sisters answered together.
Su Lao's shining eyes stared at them fiercely, and then he waved his hand and said, "Go, go early and come back early." ”
The sisters replied, saluted again, and then left.
Waiting to sit in the brand-new carriage, Su Qianyun said with palpitations: "So many people died yesterday, and they are all guards, I don't know if it will implicate us?" ”
The carriage was rolling around again, just in time to the same area where they had met the Assassin yesterday.
Hearing Su Qianyun say this, Su Xiyun knew that she remembered the tragic scene yesterday, she shook her head and said, "No, if we are implicated, how can we still sit here so peacefully at this moment?" It has long been mentioned by the people of the Criminal Department, and besides, Du Shangshu has great powers, he must have thought of something to suppress this matter. Even if he can't suppress it, he will definitely not let this matter have anything to do with his Shangshu Mansion. It's even more unlikely that we will have anything, even if there is something, for the sake of the eldest sister, we will definitely not be embarrassed. ”
Su Xiyun would not be wrong about the obsessive look she showed to Su Daiyun yesterday.
Su Qianyun listened, and the expression on her face finally got better.
It was still Zhou Can who drove the car, he was the chief of the guards, and he seemed to be addicted to being a coachman, and today he actually offered to drive the car for Su Xiyun, which caused Su Xiyun to laugh at him. At this moment, Zhou Can familiarly drove the carriage to the inn where Su Daiyun lived yesterday.
But when he got there, Zhou Can was dumbfounded, because in front of the inn, there was actually a rather luxurious carriage parked brightly.
Zhou Can knew, it was the carriage.
