My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

The butler calmly took a few steps back to avoid the flying tiles.

Su's father yelled at him: "Did you do what I asked you to do?"

"Old slave, I acted according to your instructions, but you also know that this word of mouth can easily be distorted."

Besides, this is not true at all. The second young lady is still staying well in the back house, so there is no such thing as seeking life and death!

The butler had a look of injustice on his face, but he was silently complaining in his heart.

Su's father waved his hand, "I don't care, you have to find a way for me to get rid of my remarks. Let the son of the Qin family marry the second lady as his wife, not a concubine that everyone can bully!"

"This... Master, people outside are saying that a woman who has lost her virginity is not worthy to be the wife of the son of the Qin family." The housekeeper looked embarrassed.

He had known for a long time that there were countless parents throughout Youzhou who wanted their daughters to marry into the Qin family and fly up branches to become phoenixes, but they didn't take it to heart.

Now the common people talk about the rumors with great interest, but they will not force the son of the Qin family to marry the second lady as their official wife, as the master imagined.

Su's father shook his hands and slapped the table angrily, grinning in pain, "Who is slandering my daughter? Report them to the general's mansion and let that rebellious girl deal with them!"

The corners of the housekeeper's mouth twitched, showing an expression that was hard to explain.

Wasn't it you, the father, who was the first to slander the second young lady?

Anyone who hears that rumor can easily think wrongly!

Didn't you expect that in order to take advantage of public opinion, I deliberately made the situation serious, but ended up shooting myself in the foot, and the damage was all reflected on myself and the second lady.

Seeing that the housekeeper didn't move, Su's father angrily shouted: "Why don't you go!"

"Sir, this slave has the attitude of secretly sending people to inquire about the general's mansion. They don't want to take care of this matter at all."

After hearing this, Su's father's face instantly became gloomy.

Since Su Yunwan is sitting idly by, she cannot be expected to step in to quell this out-of-control turmoil.

A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he said to himself: "Rebellious girl! Since you are so cold-blooded, don't blame your father for being ruthless!"

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at the housekeeper pitifully: "If you go and direct your remarks to Qin Junyi, even if you are reduced to a concubine, you can only be his concubine! Don't think it's just a concubine now, but in the future you will become a concubine." Being able to hold the position of concubine means that it is not impossible to become a queen. "

Butler: "...Yes."

He took a few steps back, turned around, and walked out of the study. He stood in the yard, looked up at the sky, and sighed deeply.

It seemed that Su Zhai could not stay any longer, lest one day he would not even know how he died.

It's just this contract of betrayal...

*

Youzhou Fucheng, General's Mansion.

Su Yunwan listened to Shen Hou's report about the rumors from the outside world, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but in the end it turned into a strange question: "No one means Zi Yuan?"

"There are definitely some, but the number is extremely small, and their voices are drowned in the mainstream tide."

As soon as the deep voice fell, someone came to report: The housekeeper of Su House wants to see you.

"...This is the origin of the rumor. I have to follow the old slave's identity. But just now, the master ordered the old slave to draw this fire to General Qin. He also said that he is a concubine now and will be in the future. The old slave was really frightened by what the concubine said, so he hurriedly came to tell the eldest lady.”

This housekeeper was spotted and bought by Su's father after he fled to Youzhou at the beginning of the year due to natural and man-made disasters last year. He was not an old servant of the Su family.

At that time, his grandson was seriously ill and was in urgent need of money for medical treatment, but Su's father gave him very good treatment. It was a situation where there was no such shop after passing this village. He gritted his teeth, signed a contract of sale, and became the butler of the Su family.

Su Yunwan had never met him before, so there was no talk of grudges. "Thank you for telling me this. Is there anything you need my help with?"

"Miss, if the master knew that this old slave came secretly to report the news, I'm afraid he would be beaten to death. You see..." The housekeeper licked his face, put on a smile, and looked at Su Yunwan flatteringly.

He wanted to quit, but he had no way to redeem himself. The purpose of secretly asking to see the eldest lady he had never met was to atone for his sins. It would be better if he could escape through this.

However, a servant who signed a death contract is the private property of the master. If the master does not release the servant, no matter how much money is given, he will not be free.

Of course, Su Yunwan can use power, but he has no intention of doing so.

"How about you go to Su Shi to take care of him and tell him everything that happened recently?"

"this......"

"Your second lady may go together."

"Thank you, Miss. Then I will go back and talk to the Second Miss."

The butler's eyes lit up and he responded immediately.

It seems that the eldest lady does not have any sisterly affection for the second lady as the master said, and even the eldest young master has not been implicated.

As long as he takes good care of the eldest young master and second young lady, he will be able to atone for his sins and have a place in Su's house.

Shen Hou looked at the butler's leaving figure and frowned, "Is this person trustworthy?"

"Whether it's trustworthy or not, it's up to the two of them to judge." Su Yunwan replied calmly.

"Master Su's side..."

There was no obvious anger on Su Yunwan's face, she just lowered her eyes and thought deeply.

Her father's idea that his two daughters should serve one husband together has been learned by her. This time the situation was out of his control, but he still did not forget to maximize his interests. There was no doubt that he would turn his attention to Ziyuan.

Although he is destined not to succeed, he is not a vegetarian either.

"As an exiled prisoner, according to the rules, he should be responsible for planting a certain amount of official or military land."

"That's true. I'll go and see the government office right now."

Shen Hou clasped his fists and left, with an excited smile on his lips.

Dare to plot against the master, you are really brave!

He would say hello so that Su's father would not be able to hire helpers even if he had money, and he would be a veritable exiled prisoner.

From now on, just work hard in the fields!

At the same time, Su Zhai.

When Mrs. Yan heard the news from her servants, her face turned red with anger, "Who is this bad guy who spreads rumors and causes trouble! If you dare to ruin my daughter's reputation, I want his whole family to die miserably!"

"What rumors?" Su Yunyuan walked in from outside the house, full of anxiety.

"It's nothing, it's just random talk from people who have had enough to eat and have nothing to do. Don't listen to me. Mother will ask the government to arrest all those people!" After Yan finished speaking, her face froze.

Only then did he remember that Su Yunwan had broken off the relationship, and the government would never betray the Su family's face.

But Yuanyuan suffered this disaster because of the Qin family. This is an indisputable fact. Currently being criticized by others, the Qin family must not sit back and watch!

Su Yunyuan could probably guess the content of the rumor, but she had thought about the damage to her reputation last night, so she didn't take it to heart. In turn, she comforted Yan, "Mom, the rumor is like the wind, it won't take long to dissipate. It’s okay if we don’t listen, don’t be angry.”

"My poor daughter! Why are you so miserable..." Yan hugged her and cried bitterly.

Su Yunyuan was affected by it and shed tears of fear and grievance.

When the housekeeper came to the back house, he saw the mother and daughter hugging each other and crying.

Facing their red eyes, the butler told Master Su what he had done.

"This is impossible! How could the master do that? It must be you who slandered him!" Yan shook his head repeatedly, not believing this fact at all.

Su Yunyuan's body went limp, and she subconsciously stretched out her hand to hold the table to prevent herself from falling to the ground.

The brain felt like it had been hit hard, with dull pain accompanied by dizziness and confusion.

My mother had just cursed the person who spread the rumors and caused trouble and the whole family would die miserably, but in the blink of an eye she was told that it was her father who did it. As a victim, she became a member of the whole family.

This situation is so absurd!
