Pearl was also surprised, "Why is it the Second Miss?"
She just casually mentioned which concubine it was, but she never expected it to be the second young lady.
Su Qingyu knew that it was not Zhenzhu's fault. Just now, when she saw the back of the person, she did not recognize that the person was Su Xiangling.
Her gestures now no longer resembled those of a young girl. Instead, she was somewhat delicate, with a seductive charm that naturally emanated from her bones.
At this time, Su Xiangling was accompanying a girl of similar age. It was unknown what the two were talking about, but they were very close.
Su Qingyu recognized the person next to Su Xiangling as He Wenwen, the sixth daughter of the He family.
From Su Qingyu's angle, she could just see most of Su Xiangling's face. After not seeing her for so many days, she seemed like a different person. Her face was still the same, but her eyebrows and eyes had a little more charm that a young girl didn't have.
No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so obsessed with her. Looking at her like this, it is obvious that she has been guided by an expert.
The princes and nobles in Beijing usually talk about morality, but in fact they are playing tricks. Some people specialize in this kind of business, training women to serve others. Some people also say that if a wild chicken goes in, a vixen can be trained out.
Although His Royal Highness has many servants around him, they are all of clean origin and are selected from the palace to serve him. Occasionally there are one or two people like Su Xiangling, who are all from noble families and no one would do such a lowly thing.
Now that Su Xiangling has learned these methods of serving people, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be able to resist.
She and Su Xiangling had never been on good terms, so she didn't go up to say hello and just pretended not to see anything.
On the way to Songhe Hall, Zhenzhu muttered softly, "No wonder they say that the Crown Prince is so obsessed with our Second Miss. This seductive look is really alluring."
Feicui frowned and gently touched Zhenzhu, "His Royal Highness is not someone we can discuss. There are many people in the palace today, so we should be careful with our words."
Zhenzhu quietly glanced at Su Qingyu's expression, nodded and said nothing more.
Feicui is calm, steady and cautious. She is the one who controls the people under her, so Su Qingyu is naturally relieved.
The huge group of people soon arrived at the entrance of Songhe Hall. Before Su Qingyu even stepped into the yard, she heard a woman's sharp voice behind her.
"Big sister, you are so arrogant. Grandmother sent someone to invite you back yesterday, but you refused. You just married into the Shen family, but you really think you are superior to others."
Su Qingyu turned around and looked at Su Yihui with a puzzled look. She didn't come back yesterday, what did it have to do with her?
Su Yihui was wearing a light green brocade dress with gold embroidery and two simple jade hairpins on her head. Her face was even paler than when Su Qingyu saw her last time, and her figure was much thinner.
Su Qingyu glanced at her and said, "I can't help it. My mother-in-law and the Third Master both trust me and let me manage the inner house. I have so many things to worry about that my body is not feeling well. I am not like the Third Sister, who married into the Zhao family to enjoy a good life."
"I heard that the third sister doesn't have to do anything, just lie down and someone will serve her."
She heard that Su Yihui, as the wife of the prince of the Duke of Wei, could not even control the concubines in Zhao Ji's backyard. It is said that the accounts of Zhao Ji's courtyard are now managed by the concubines.
Su Qingyu originally just casually ridiculed Su Yihui, but she didn't expect Su Yihui to suddenly glare at her.
"What do you mean? What's wrong with me lying down and letting others serve me? Do you think I am willing to..."
Before she finished speaking, Su Yihui held her forehead with one hand and swayed her body.
Yin Xin reached out to support Su Yihui and whispered, "Madam, you must not get angry. Take care of yourself."
Su Qingyu looked at Su Yihui in surprise. Even if what she said just now was unpleasant, it wouldn't make her so angry, right? What was Su Yihui trying to do? Blackmail her?
Just at this moment, Su Shunci came out and said, "Third sister, grandma asked you to accompany your cousin from the Gu family to change clothes."
Su Yihui nodded when she heard that, then her expression suddenly calmed down. She looked at Su Qingyu meaningfully before turning around and leaving.
Seeing that Su Qingyu didn't understand, Su Shunci walked up to her and whispered, "Big sister, you don't know, she had a miscarriage more than half a month ago. I heard it was related to Prince Zhao's concubine."
"You just said she was lying down and being served. I think you stabbed her lungs."
Su Qingyu sneered, "It's not me who caused her miscarriage, but she hasn't even finished her confinement yet, what is she doing back here?"
As the two sisters walked into Songhe Hall, Su Shunci explained.
"She came back yesterday and gave Second Aunt a lot of good things. She was also warm and considerate to the Gu family members."
"Who knows what she's thinking? Maybe she feels helpless and wants to improve her relationship with her family?"
After all, the second house and the old lady had a lot of complaints against her because of Su Chengyan's incident last time. This time she came back and gave some gifts, and everyone's attitude was much better.
Seeing that the main hall of Songhe Hall was in front of them, Su Qingyu asked again, "Who from the Gu family is here?"
"Both cousins are here, as well as the third young lady of the Gu family, Gu Jinlan, and the second young master, Gu Jinsong."
The cousin Su Shunci mentioned was the old lady's niece's wife. She was a direct sister-in-law to Gu Ruoyun, the cousin who was previously in the Su family.
"I think this cousin from the Gu family seems to be here to look for a marriage. Our grandmother is very enthusiastic about this matter."
After Su Shunci finished speaking, she also reached the entrance of the hall and could hear the laughter from inside. The two sisters stopped talking and walked in gracefully.
After Su Qingyu entered the room, she first went forward to greet her grandmother, and then greeted several elders.
The old lady sat in the main seat in the room, and the third wife, Hai, served tea and water beside the old lady. Below the old lady, there were two other women and a young man.
At the old lady's signal, Hai stepped forward to introduce them, "Qingyu, this is your third cousin, and this is your fourth cousin. You should call this one cousin."
Su Qingyu bowed to her two aunts and sat aside, and also pulled Hai to sit next to her.
"Aunt San, please sit down and talk. There are servants to do the rough work. I know you care about grandma, but you are so busy, and grandma also cares about you."
"Grandmother, what do you think? My Third Aunt is also a government official's wife. If this incident gets out, people will say that the Gu family is arrogant. They came to celebrate the birthday and let the wife of a fourth-rank imperial censor serve them."
Su Qingyu knew that Third Aunt was afraid of affecting Third Uncle's career, so she tolerated it again and again. After all, the word "filial piety" can sometimes really crush people. But Grandmother was too much. Even if she wanted to honor her mother's family, she didn't have the right to humiliate Third Aunt in public.
Hai's eyes were filled with heat and she looked at Su Qingyu with gratitude.
The old lady laughed awkwardly, "You are right. Your Third Aunt is filial, so we didn't think too much about it."
The third wife of the Gu family has a round face and small eyes. At first glance, she looks kind and easy to get along with, but in fact she is a well-known shrew.
She smiled and said to the old lady, "This is our eldest daughter, right? I heard that she married into the Shen family. She is destined to be extremely wealthy."
Su Qingyu nodded politely, "Third cousin, you are joking."
Mrs. Gu San's eyes turned and she suddenly spoke.
"I heard that the second son of the Shen family is still unmarried. Miss, can you find a matchmaker for him? Your cousin Jinlan is also of marriageable age. If she can marry into the Shen family, you cousins will have someone to take care of her."
