"The second young master has left."

Mama Qin walked into the study, looked at Su Hengyu, who was quietly writing something in front of the table, and said softly.

Su Hengyu nodded, and didn't ask about what was happening outside, but handed a booklet to Mama Qin: "This is the atlas I sorted out in recent days, Mama helped me take it to Steward Qiao, arrange a caravan to find it first." ”

A few days ago, the caravan said that they had found the cotton that Su Hengyu wanted, which was regarded as an ordinary ornamental flower in the south, but because it had no fragrance and was not beautiful, it was not planted.

Hearing that Su Hengyu was looking for it, the people of the caravan not only brought back the flowering plants, but also brought back a lot of seeds.

Su Hengyu was very happy to hear this news, since cotton can be found, I think other seeds should also be found.

However, after finding cotton, Su Hengyu was about to start planting and subsequent utilization of cotton.

Qiao Meng received the task, and then went to urge the caravan and the carpenter, and by the way, he also had to take care of Zhuangzili, who was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground.

Su Hengyu is also busy here, but he is busy making all kinds of plans.

Since Su Zhongli was scolded by Mama Qin, he has never come to trouble Su Hengyu again. That Su Baozhu wanted to see her several times, but was blocked back by Mama Qin.

In this way, Su Hengyu lived a quiet little life in Tai'an Courtyard for a few days.

When the Chinese New Year's Eve came, Su Hengyu let everyone in Zhuangzi take a holiday, and asked Mother Qin to bring them a New Year gift.

The reward she gave was not much, after all, her business with the eldest princess had just started, and many things had not been rolled out.

So far, only one tofu is still profitable, but because the rise of tofu has not been long, Su Hengyu's share of the profits is not much.

In addition, she has a lot of money to do, and the money she can use is really limited.

On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, several masters of the Su family finally got together for the first time.

Usually at this time, Marquis Su would take his wife into the palace to attend the banquet held by the emperor. It's just that now he doesn't even have an official position, and the emperor can't remember him, a little marquis who has no skills, and the couple naturally have no qualifications to go to the banquet.

Maybe it's because I think of my past scenery, tonight's Hou Ye and his wife are not in a very good mood.

Outside the mansion was a lively firecracker, and the joyful and peaceful atmosphere almost filled the entire capital. However, the mansion was indescribably quiet, and even on this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner table, there was only the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding.

Su Baozhu, who was the most active in the past, rarely quieted down, and even Su Zhongli, who had never been four or six, learned to look at people's faces and didn't say anything that shouldn't be said.

The family just finished the reunion dinner quietly.

Towards the end of the meal, the Marquis of Zhongyong suddenly asked, "Baozhu, you went to see the Duchess of England earlier, did she have anything to say to you?" ”

This abrupt remark made everyone present stunned, but Wang and Su Baozhu reacted quickly, they knew what the Marquis Zhongyong was asking.

In fact, the Wang family has already come to ask many times and urged many times.

But Zhou Xun had already made it clear that the British government couldn't help, and Su Baozhu didn't want to make a bad deal with Zhou Xun for the position of Zhongyong Marquis, so he found some excuses to push things off.

Now that the Wang family loves her, they are afraid of Zhou Xun's side, so they don't dare to really persecute Su Baozhu. She knew that the Marquis of Zhongyong was very face-loving, and he would not come to inquire about her position in person.

Originally, Su Baozhu had planned to deal with this New Year first, and then went to live in the British Mansion for a while under the pretext of helping Marquis Zhongyong find out the news. When the limelight is over, she will come back and push the blame away.

It's just that Su Baozhu didn't expect that the position was too important to Marquis Zhongyong, so important that he could put aside his dignity for the time being in order to return to the imperial court.

Being asked so suddenly, Su Baozhu was stunned for a moment, and quickly came back to his senses: "The Duchy treats me very well, but there are some minor troubles, and the Duchess of the Kingdom is not easy to help." ”

Marquis Zhongyong heard the meaning of his little daughter's words, and he frowned: "How can this be, hasn't the Duchess of Guo always loved you, how could she know that you are in trouble, but she refuses to help you?" Didn't you tell her about your difficulties? ”

Is this a suspicion that she didn't mention her position to Zhou Xun?

Su Baozhu pursed her lips, her expression a little unhappy: "I haven't mentioned it anywhere, people only said that it was inconvenient." He also said that the matter was caused by our family, and no one could do anything about it. ”

"Our house?" Wang immediately lifted his spirits.

Her gaze swept over each of her children, and her eyes couldn't help but look at each other.

Zhongyong Hou is even more straightforward: "Who did what, you tell me 1510 Baozhu!" ”

Su Baozhu paused slightly, and then glanced at Su Hengyu with a little apology: "I heard that it was A-Niang's mother's family who got the news from my sister, so I ...... it."

She didn't say anything more, but the meaning of the words was already obvious.

Unlike the three brothers of the Su family, who were confused, Su Hengyu understood what the Zhongyong Marquis were talking about.

She put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said before Marquis Zhongyong could speak: "Father and mother don't need to play dumb riddles here, I know what you want to ask." Father's position is suddenly gone, and you want Su Baozhu to go to the Guogong Mansion to help you run it, right? ”

"But Su Baozhu didn't succeed, and I don't know where I heard that this matter was related to the Wang family, so I turned to suspect that I sent the news to the Wang family and asked the Wang family to deal with my father, right?"

Su Hengyu saw the expressions of the Hou Ye couple and Su Baozhu clearly, but the expressions on their faces became lighter and lighter.

Su Baozhu begged for mercy repeatedly: "Sister, don't be angry, I shouldn't have said it." It's just that my father and mother have been worried about this matter, and I don't want to see my father and mother sad, so I can only tell the truth. ”

"It's funny, I never said I blamed you, let alone that it had anything to do with me. You're amazing, you first buttoned my hat when you opened your mouth, and then pushed the matter on me. I asked myself that I didn't have the ability to influence the head of the Wang family, let alone a channel to contact the Wang family. I'm afraid you're blaming the wrong person. ”

After speaking, she didn't care what the expressions of the rest of the people were, stood up silently, and stayed away from this family: "Since I returned to the Hou Mansion, I haven't even been to the Wang family's land over the years, my mother has never been close to me, and I don't know what kind of court my grandfather's family is." Mama Qin was the housekeeper that my mother arranged for me after I left the Hou Mansion, and when I left, I only brought a Ziyun with no relatives and no reason. ”

"I know you have not liked me since the day I came back, and feel that my presence has affected the harmony of your family. In the past, I was naïve, thinking that blood relatives would still have some feelings. But now I understand that relatives not only look at blood, but sometimes also by fate. ”

"I have no fate with you, and in the future, I will not come back."
