Mrs. Xu lifted her hand, and her wide sleeves had been split into two parts.

"Forgive me for not being able to stay for a long time." Without hesitation, she dropped the torn sleeve, and Mrs. Xu walked straight out of the main hall of the Liufu Mansion.

Gu Yuanyu also hid his face and said ashamedly: "I don't know people clearly, and I am wrong!" Repent too! ”

After she finished speaking, she followed the example of her master, Mrs. Xu, and cut the sleeves with a hairpin, and then made it clear to Liu Anxin that she had cut off her robe.

After Gu Yuanyuan and Mrs. Xu left one after another, the guests who watched the ceremony also began to say goodbye.

A grand and lively ceremony turned into a ridiculous and shameful expulsion ceremony in an instant.

Lord Liu no longer had the face to stand in the hall, he turned around and walked away.

After the guests dispersed, only Liu Anxin looked at Nan Wanwan with a resentful face, and asked with hatred: "Why didn't Miss Nan give me such a way to live?" ”

Nan Wanwan replied, "Do you know when I arrived?" ”

"When I bow to the Master, I offer tea with the Master." Liu Anxin is not ready to accept his fate. Although Mrs. Xu has broken her sleeves and expelled her apprentices, she will not give up this master easily.

Nan Wanwan didn't expose Liu Anxin's careful thoughts, she said bluntly: "When you do the ceremony, I will arrive." ”

So why did you come in so late?

Liu Anxin didn't put the doubts in his heart into his mouth, but Nan Wanwan had already guessed it completely. She replied without any disappointment: "Because I want Mrs. Xu to be expelled." It's better to chase an apprentice than to stop you from apprenticeship, isn't it? ”

Liu Anxin was so provoked that she almost wanted to vomit blood, she covered her chest with one hand, propped herself on the table with the other, and looked at Nan Wanwan.

She asked with grief, "Y-Why are you targeting me like this?" ”

Nan Wanwan smiled, and looked at Liu Anxin. She replied, "Didn't you also target Su Zhaoning like this?" What do you do to Su Zhaoning, I will pay you back tenfold and hundredfold. ”

"Feng Shui takes turns, Nan Wanwan, aren't you afraid that I will step on you in the future?" Liu Anxin shouted unwillingly.

Nan Wanwan left the other party's back in vain.

Doesn't she have a brother who hasn't made a move?

The next day, in the court, the kokuko priest Jiuliu ushered in the first time in his political career.

Unfilial piety, unkindness, and injustice. On the Jinluan Palace, the official consulted three books of Lord Liu and stated his ten crimes.

Unfilial said that his daughter was full of lies and angered the old lady in the family.

If you are not kind enough to talk about the fault of a woman, the father does not teach.

Injustice said that he patronized his reputation and forced his daughter to do such a shameless act.

In short, Liu Saijiu had no chance to open his mouth to defend himself. As soon as he opened his mouth, the official made a generous statement, pointing and scolding.

The difficulty of the speech official is also clear today. On the grounds that a person with a bad moral character and was not suitable to enter the national prison, Lord Liu was demoted two levels in a row and was demoted out of Beijing.

Liu Anxin never had the opportunity to see Lord An Yi again.

And the tragic situation of the initiator, Su Zhaoning only learned about it a long time later. At that time, her hand was only slightly healed, but she still couldn't hold the needle, so she took a pen and randomly rendered ink marks on rice paper.

Embroidery is a delicate job, but writing and painting are not easy. It's just that Su Zhaoning doesn't want to let his hands stay idle all the time.

If she keeps doing nothing, she will really think that her hands are useless.

Doctor Liu from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion still came to change Su Zhaoning's prescription every five days. So when there was a sound at the door of the room, Su Zhaoning subconsciously thought that it was Dr. Liu again.

"Wait a minute, Dr. Liu." Su Zhaoning carefully put the pen in his hand back on the inkstone, and then prepared to rub his hand with the handkerchief next to him.

She reached over and took the handkerchief, but the other hand handed it over.

"Thank you. Doctor Liu, look at my hand, but it's okay......" Su Zhaoning raised his head and looked at "Doctor Liu" with a smile.

didn't expect that the person who came was not Dr. Liu.

"Big brother, are you back?" Su Zhaoning hadn't seen Su Jinyu for a while, and I heard that he had been out of Beijing for a while.

Su Jinyu personally took the handkerchief and rubbed Su Zhaoning's hand. Although his movements may seem frivolous, in fact, only he knows - how uncomfortable he felt when he saw these scarred hands.

"Hmm. It's here today. After Su Jinyu wiped off the little ink marks on Su Zhaoning's hands, she turned around and picked up the medicine bowl next to her and handed it to Su Zhaoning, "The temperature is just right, drink it." ”

Su Zhaoning didn't expect that Su Jinyu had already gone to the kitchen and brought the medicine for her when she rushed back to the house today.

She smiled at him and replied, "Thank you, big brother." ”

Su Jinyu saw Su Zhaoning's smile, but she didn't relax at all.

He watched her drain a bowl of medicine and handed over a half-open oiled paper package.

Su Zhaoning did not have the habit of eating sweets after medicine to suppress the bitter taste, she was about to wave her hand to refuse, but saw that in the oily paper bag, it was her favorite brown sugar pear cake.

She loves brown sugar pear paste, and very few people should know about it. After all, with Su Zhaoning's situation all along, she has no chance to ask the kitchen to specialize in snacks.

Even when she was in the temple, the pastries that Su Roujia sent in her father's name were actually not Su Zhaoning's favorite.

Chestnut cake is actually Su Yingying's favorite.

Because his sister likes it, Su Zhaoning used the two rare opportunities to choose pastries on chestnut cakes.

However, from this place, it is also enough to get a glimpse of Su Roujia's thoughtful and meticulous temperament.

Su Roujia is known for her meticulous handling of things, but it is her eldest brother, an old-fashioned and rigorous "old gentleman", is he intentional or unintentional?

Su Zhaoning took the brown sugar pear paste and felt that the pastry was still a little warm. She looked at the paper seal on the outside of the oilskin paper again, and it turned out to be from the Drunken Immortal Building.

Zuixianlou is not near the Hou Mansion of Chang'an, her eldest brother bought brown sugar pear paste when he came back from outside the city, or did he know that she wanted to drink medicine and went out of the house to buy it?

Su Zhaoning felt that he was thinking a little too much.

Retracting her thoughts, she took a bite of the brown sugar pear paste in her hand. The faint ginger flavor mixed with the fragrance of brown sugar completely dissipated the bitterness in the mouth.

Su Zhaoning is indeed the one who likes the brown sugar pear paste of Zuixianlou the most. Although I have only eaten it two or three times, I always remember that some ginger is put in the brown sugar pear paste here, and the taste is extremely chic.

"Thank you, big brother." Su Zhaoning couldn't help but put another piece of brown sugar pear paste into his mouth.

Her hand injury was not completely healed, and her attention was still on her hands when she was eating pastries.

With this bow, Su Zhaoning failed to see the joy flashing in Su Jinyu's eyes.

He was right. That day, he and his second sister went to Zuixian Lou to buy Babao duck, and he saw that she followed the brown sugar pear paste that the shopkeeper had taken for a short time, and he felt that she should like it.

Although it was really only a small stretch of road, it was almost a matter of two or three steps before the second sister withdrew her gaze. But Su Jinyu believes that if she didn't really like her self-discipline, she wouldn't have acted like this.

Su Jinyu looked at the real smile in Su Zhaoning's eyes, and she was slightly relieved.

"Does the second sister have any favorite person?" Su Jinyu thought for a while, but still asked the question in her heart.

Su Zhaoning was immediately choked.

Her eldest brother was so rigid that he never imagined that one day she would be the one who would talk to her about her daughter's family.

"Ahem, ahem." She immediately coughed violently.

Su Jinyu hurriedly stood up and stroked her back.

Although it was an urgent move, this kind of intimacy between brothers and sisters made Su Zhaoning very surprised.

After all, her eldest brother is a very rigid person.

In his eyes, it's normal for seven-year-olds to sit at different tables, right?

Su Jinyu felt that a question of his own choked Su Zhaoning, and he felt very guilty, so he simply stopped asking and directly pushed out what he wanted to do.

took another ebony box from the side, Su Jinyu opened the small copper lock on it, handed the contents to Su Zhaoning, and explained to her: "A few days ago, I looked at a few houses and shops. But after thinking about it carefully, I think it's better for you to live here. So I bought you two shops anyway. ”

"As for the shop, it's not convenient for you to take care of it yourself now. So I rented it out. The tenant is the subordinate who is released by his own house, so his character is trustworthy. Su Jinyu didn't care how Su Zhaoning reacted, so she poured out all the things she had been preparing and what she wanted to say.

"If you want to make your own business after you get married, you can take it back at any time. If you have been renting, it is easy to get the rent. Su Jinyu put the title deed, house deed, and lease book in front of Su Zhaoning, and asked her seriously, "You haven't learned it in the past, but now it's the first time you read it, what don't you understand?" ”

Su Zhaoning looked at the black and white words in front of him a little sluggishly.

What she didn't understand was not the paper and handwriting in front of her.

What she doesn't understand is the heart of the person in front of her.

Big brother does this, why is it? Did he know what he planned for his sister Su Yingying, so he used it to test and warn himself?

But he is the eldest son of Changfang, and he is also the future son of Chang'an. What does he care about a daughter like himself in the second room, and can he use these things bought with real money to test and warn himself?

"If you don't understand anything, just ask me." Su Jinyu repeated it again.

He saw that Su Zhaoning's expression was still a little dazed, and he was worried again.

For the first time, he comforted people with soft words. Stretched out his hand and touched Su Zhaoning's head, like a little girl who had been touching for more than ten years, Su Jinyu coaxed patiently: "Brother is not trying to kick you out." It's just that my brother knows that you are living a very hard life in this house. I hope to help you pave some of the way and make it as comfortable as possible. ”

"Second sister." Su Jinyu bent down and was at eye level with Su Zhaoning, and he said to her very seriously, "Zhaoning, can you try not to be so strong, and also learn to rely on and trust my brother?" In front of you, in addition to the eldest uncle, there should be me. ”

In addition to his father Su Jingzheng, does Su Zhaoning have anyone else he wants to rely on?

There were.

When she finally found her uncle Xu Zhiyuan, although Su Zhaoning didn't admit it, she really hoped for this family affection.

But the Xu family had already abandoned her and Su Yingying.

His gaze fell from the pile of contracts in front of him to the brown sugar pear paste in the oil paper bag, and Su Zhaoning felt his heart shrink.
