Shen Yue's curse made Li Chaoyun's face change suddenly, but he couldn't get angry.

"Sister-in-law, what do you think?" Shen Yue stared at her and asked again.

Li Chaoyun coughed lightly and said seriously, "Third sister is young, there is no need to be too angry about some things. Even if someone spreads rumors, there is no need to curse them to death."

Shen Yue didn't care what she said and praised her, "Sister-in-law is kind, I need to learn more from her in the future."

Su Qingyu sighed in her heart, it is true that people can never teach others no matter how hard they try. Things teach people, and one thing teaches them.

In the past, Shen Yue was a gentle girl who always spoke softly. But after experiencing this, she also learned to be aggressive. The words she said were full of attacking meanings.

This is also growth, but this kind of growth is too cruel for Shen Yue.

After that, they discussed the matter of tending to the old lady. Shen Yue said, "Grandma said before she went to bed that there was no need for the two aunts to stay here."

"The doctor also said that taking two doses of medicine will be enough."

In fact, Shen Yue felt the most distressed. She knew better than anyone what caused her grandmother's illness.

If I hadn't been worrying about her, and hadn't been so anxious and angry and caught a cold at night, I wouldn't have fallen ill so suddenly.

Su Qingyu and Yang Shi did not leave after all. They let Li Chaoyun go back and they stayed here to guard.

After Li Chaoyun left, Su Qingyu advised Shen Yue not to think too much. This matter had nothing to do with fate.

Knowing that Shen Yue had served for half the night, Su Qingyu and Yang both sent her to rest.

Fortunately, the old lady woke up before noon, and several people had lunch with her.

After noon, Su Qingyu changed her clothes, combed her hair, and got on a carriage to go to the palace.

What she didn't know was that not long after she got on the carriage and left, the corner door of the Shen family's west courtyard was knocked open.

Jiang Qi was shocked when he saw who was coming. He didn't dare to disturb anyone and quietly brought the man to Shen Zhixiu's study.

He personally stood guard at the door of the study, looking solemn, and sent a reliable person to the palace to inform the Third Master and his wife.

Su Qingyu entered the palace alone in a carriage. When she arrived at the palace gate and changed to a sedan chair, she happened to meet Madam Chen.

Whenever you meet someone, you always have to step forward and greet them.

After Su Qingyu greeted Madam Chen, she smiled and started to greet him, "Madam Chen, I am really grateful that you thought of my Third Master last time."

The incident in the palace last time spread to all the major families in the capital. They all knew that Madam Chen had paved the way for the virtuous concubine, and she had also caused a scolding from the old man Chen.

Chen Zheng later went out of his way to explain to Shen Zhixiu that it was his wife's careless talk that almost caused trouble for the Shen family.

Shen Zhixiu knew that Chen Ge Lao would not use such an obvious trick. It was obvious that he was being used by the Concubine Xian.

So Su Qingyu's two sentences made Mrs. Chen feel embarrassed.

She didn't expect that the Third Madam Shen, at such a young age, could have such means. She had underestimated her in the past.

Madam Chen could only smile and say, "Third Madam, you are not as virtuous as her. She handled the matter of your husband taking a concubine very properly. Everyone in the capital city praises her."

What she meant was that Su Qingyu was jealous. After she sent the person in, didn't she let Shen Zhixiu into the room?

Su Qingyu smiled faintly, "Speaking of virtue, no one can compare to Madam Chen. Lord Chen is the head of all officials, and Madam Chen is also a role model for the mistresses in the inner house. In the future, we should learn more from Madam Chen."

Her words were extremely polite and appropriate, but to Mrs. Chen's ears, she was saying that she could not control Lord Chen.

Madam Chen wanted to say more, but Su Qingyu had already gotten into the sedan chair. He nodded at Madam Chen and lowered the sedan chair curtain.

Through the gap in the brocade curtain of the sedan chair, Su Qingyu could still see Mrs. Chen's indignant expression.

She shook her head slightly. Mrs. Chen had been serving her mother-in-law in Huzhou, Jiangnan for many years, and she was unfamiliar with some of the methods in Beijing. She didn't think deeply enough about many things and was not cautious enough in doing things. Such a person would not only not be a help to Elder Chen, but would also cause trouble.

If this happens twice more, Lord Chen will probably send her back to her old house.

Soon, the sedan chair arrived at the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Su Qingyu got off the sedan chair and took a few steps before Song Wanwan called her.

"Sister Su, you are here."

Song Wanwan walked up to Su Qingyu and greeted her warmly.

Su Qingyu smiled and said, "Congratulations, your third brother has returned victoriously this time, which is a great joyous event for the Song family."

She sincerely congratulated Song Wanwan and was happy for the Song family. But when she said this, she felt really sad.

If there hadn't been the accident in Spring Valley, today would have been a celebration party for her brother.

Song Wanwan was naturally happy, with a look of joy on her face, "That's right, ever since my third brother left Beijing, my mother has been praying to Buddha all day, praying for his safe return. It really wasn't in vain, it turned out to be such a great achievement."

If there is anyone who truly treats a concubine's son as her own, it must be the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty. However, she is a low-key person, not as flamboyant as Princess Yongjia.

When Su Qingyu heard this, she felt a little regretful. Was it because she didn't burn incense and pray to Buddha that the Buddha didn't bless her brother?

When Song Wanwan noticed that Su Qingyu's expression was not as bright as before, she suddenly remembered that her mother was ill.

She asked apologetically, "Sister Su, how is Auntie's condition? I went to see her three days ago. Is she getting better?"

Su Qingyu gave Song Wanwan a comforting smile, "Mother is fine, it's just that the spring weather is cool and she caught a cold."

Catching a cold and getting sick in spring is a very common thing, and no one would associate this incident with Li Yunzhou.

As Su Qingyu spoke, she took Song Wanwan's hand and walked into the hall.

When entering the hall, Song Wanwan mentioned the third wife of the Su family and the fifth lady, Su Zhilan.

"Sister Su, you don't know yet? A few days ago, my mother went out of town to burn incense, and her carriage suddenly broke down. The third wife of the Su family who passed by helped a lot, and my mother had a great conversation with the third wife, and they got along very well."

Su Qingyu thought of her third aunt's conversation and character, and said with a smile: "It's such a fate. My third aunt is from the Hai family, and her knowledge is no worse than that of ordinary men."

Song Wanwan said: "Not only that, my mother also said that Madam Su San raised her children well. Go back and praise your fifth sister, saying that she is young but well-educated."

"She also said that Fifth Sister is not like me who wields swords and guns all day long, and that she is a proper lady from a noble family."

Su Qingyu chuckled and could even imagine the expression on the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty's face when she said this.

It is said that when the Song family had this daughter, the whole family was extremely happy. The Marquis of Loyalty even gave his daughter a nickname, Jiaojiao, but since the girl could walk, the word Jiao had nothing to do with her.

He played with swords and guns with his brothers and spoke louder than them.

When the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty saw a girl like Su Zhilan, she probably thought of what her ideal daughter would look like.

She envied Song Wanwan for being able to grow up like this. Everyone in the Song family loved and doted on her infinitely.

After entering the hall, Song Wanwan sat down behind Marquis Zhongyi.

Su Qingyu also found Shen Zhixiu and sat next to him.

"Did the prisoner surrender ceremony go smoothly today?" Su Qingyu asked in a low voice.

Shen Zhixiu nodded and was about to speak when Wen Zhu hurried in and whispered a few words in Shen Zhixiu's ear.
