A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 419: Give the 3rd Master a Beauty
The man glanced into the room, but couldn't see anyone clearly. Instead, he was dazzled by the brocade clothes and pearls on their heads.
He knew Aunt Xue's identity, so he could naturally guess that she was a noble person from the capital.
"I'm going, I'm going."
He turned around hurriedly, pushed the door open and went out.
At this moment, Su Yuankai was tilting his head and looking at Su Qingyu, "Who are you? You are so beautiful."
Su Qingyu looked at him and said, "I am your sister."
Su Yuankai grinned, then broke off a chicken leg from the oil paper and handed it to Su Qingyu, "Chicken leg, sister, eat it."
Su Qingyu also smiled at him, "Eat it."
Seeing that she didn't eat, Su Yuankai sat on a chair next to her and started eating.
He continued, "Mom, why did Uncle Gao leave? Mommy can sleep in the same bed with him, so I won't be cold... I won't be cold anymore."
Aunt Xue's face suddenly changed, and she stepped forward to cover Su Yuankai's mouth, "Miss, don't listen to his nonsense. He is stupid now and doesn't know what he is talking about."
Su Qingyu's expression did not change. She said calmly, "I'm leaving first. Take care, Auntie."
Then he led his men out of the house.
Su Yuankai's voice came from behind, "Sister, come back tomorrow."
Su Qingyu paused for a moment, then walked out of the yard.
On the way back in the carriage, Pearl couldn't help but ask, "Madam, is Aunt Xue cheating on you?"
"But she didn't even pick a good one, why did she find an old man?"
"Miss, do you want to tell the Marquis?"
Su Qingyu shook her head, "Just pretend you don't know."
She would not forgive Aunt Xue and Su Yuankai. No matter how miserable their lives were, she was not moved at all. But she would not step on them when they were going through a hard time. There was no need for that.
Her father has been cuckolded many times, so this one is not a big deal.
On the way back to Shen's house, Su Qingyu looked outside through the gap in the curtains. Zhenzhu and Feicui were chatting beside them.
"This farm is so shabby. If Aunt Xue hadn't come to live here, I wouldn't have known that our family had such a farm." Zhenzhu said.
Feicui said, "That's because there are many houses and farms. For us, our home is just a place to shelter from the wind and rain, how can we forget it?"
Zhenzhu added, "You are right. But if this is the case with the Marquis's Mansion, it must be even more so with other powerful families. If they have any houses that they have forgotten, I will go live there."
Feicui tapped her forehead and said, "You wishful thinking. It's all in the family's land deed book. You can see it just by flipping through it. How could you forget it?"
Su Qingyu suddenly turned her head and said in a deep voice, "Stop the car."
Pearl and Jade were stunned and looked at Su Qingyu in confusion.
Jiang Qi also stood by the car and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Su Qingyu ordered in a cold voice: "Send someone to the house where they moved the things. Don't alarm them, just see what's going on."
Although Jiang Qi didn't understand what the lady meant, he followed her instructions. He parked the carriage on the side and kept watch.
Su Qingyu lowered her eyebrows and subconsciously twisted her fingers together.
She said that house, why is it so familiar. Just now when she heard Feicui mention the title deed, she suddenly remembered that the house was Chen's dowry house, but it was not on the dowry book. It is said that it was given to her by the old man of the Chen family after she got married, so it was not on the book.
She discovered this by accident when she was helping Chen's business to sort out its assets in her previous life.
If it was Chen's dowry house, could those people be Shen Zhao's men? What were they moving?
Thinking of what she had discovered before about Shen Zhao selling off his property, Su Qingyu was extremely suspicious. She asked her third cousin to help investigate, but he hadn't replied yet. It seemed that it was not easy to investigate, or perhaps there were other people involved.
Seeing her serious expression, Pearl and Jade fell silent.
After about two quarters of an hour, the people Jiang Qi sent out came back.
"Madam, those people have disappeared and the house is empty. I looked around but didn't find any obvious traces."
Su Qingyu was not surprised. Considering the alertness of that group of people, it was normal for them to leave.
"Let's go, let's go back home."
After returning home, she did not tell Shen Zhixiu about this. First, it involved Shen Zhao, and they were uncle and nephew after all. Second, she always felt that today's incident was related to Shen Zhao's selling of his property. She planned to see what her third cousin had found out before telling Shen Zhixiu.
Before going to bed at night, Shen Zhixiu told Su Qingyu about Li Yunzhou's itinerary. He would set off for Northern Xinjiang in three days. After that, he would reorganize the troops and explain the military affairs, and then return to the capital. The army was moving slowly and was expected to arrive in Beijing in mid-March.
Su Qingyu counted the days on her fingers. In a month, her brother would be able to return to Beijing. She was happy and nervous. In her previous life, her brother fought against the Li family alone. In this life, she must stand behind him.
The next day when he went to Qingyuanju to pay his respects, Li Chaoyun was sitting there talking to the old lady, dressed elegantly and noblely.
Seeing Su Qingyu coming, Li Chaoyun stood up and bowed, then asked, "Didn't the virtuous concubine send an invitation to Third Aunt?"
Su Qingyu didn't understand what was going on. "What post?"
Li Chaoyun smiled and replied, "Madam Chen has returned to the capital. Her Majesty the Concubine invited her to the palace and asked me to go with her to talk."
"I thought I could go with Third Aunt. After all, Third Aunt's status is extraordinary now."
Su Qingyu sneered in her heart. What good thing was this? She would rather read the storybook in the mansion than suffer that punishment.
She also understood what Li Chaoyun meant, which was that she was not valued by the nobles in the palace.
Su Qingyu smiled faintly, "Princess, you are really something. It's not your first time entering the palace. Is it necessary to be so happy?"
"If it was from a small family, it would be fine. But the princess is of such status that entering the palace is just like eating a normal meal."
Li Chaoyun's expression froze, and he realized that he had lost his composure. He cursed Su Qingyu in his heart, what on earth was she capable of? Shen Zhao had lost his composure before when facing her, and now even she couldn't control her emotions.
Su Qingyu was right. It was just entering the palace, and it would be low-class to show off like this.
Su Qingyu didn't take Li Chaoyun's visit to the palace seriously. It would be better if the virtuous concubine didn't look for her. She was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with them. Adding Madam Chen to the mix, she was even less willing to go.
But after noon, she finally understood why Concubine Xian did not summon her to the palace. It turned out that she was just trying to make things difficult for her, probably because she was afraid that if she went, things would be difficult to handle.
After lunch, Su Qingyu was lying on the couch reading a travelogue, thinking that when Shen Zhixiu retired, she would also go to see these famous mountains and rivers.
Pearl suddenly walked in, walking hurriedly and looking anxious.
"Madam, please go out and take a look. Someone is coming from the palace."
Su Qingyu closed the book and sat up, "Has there been an order from the palace?"
Zhenzhu shook her head and said, "It was the Concubine Xian who gave our Third Master a beauty. She is now in the flower hall in the outer courtyard. She was sent here by the eunuch beside the Concubine Xian."
