Su Yao stood up, and Qing Ping quickly said to Su Yao, "Mrs. Xu, please sit down."

Seeing Qingping being so kind, Su Yao stopped being polite and sat down opposite Qingping.

Aunt Zhao brought tea to the two of them. Qingping said to Aunt Zhao, "Okay, Aunt, we don't need you to serve here anymore. Take the people out."

Nanny Zhao quickly said to Qingping, "Yes!" and then Nanny Zhao took everyone out of the yard.

At this time, only Qingping and Su Yao were left in the yard. Qingping said directly to Su Yao, "Mrs. Xu Yu'er has already told me about the matter. Don't worry, our General's Mansion will try its best to help you."

Su Yao smiled and nodded and said, "Well, Madam, don't call me Madam Xu, just call me A Yao. Or you can call me Su Yao."

Qing Ping nodded and said, "Okay, then you don't have to call me Madam! I think you are younger than me, so you can just call me Sister Qing."

When Su Yao heard this, she immediately said to Qing Ping, "Is this okay?"

Qing Ping nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with this. It's settled. I'll call you A Yao, and you call me Sister Qing."

When Su Yao heard Qingping say this, she no longer insisted.

Qingping was talking to Su Yao when Liyue came in. Liyue saw Qingping happily talking to Su Yao. Liyue smiled and said to Qingping, "Mom, Sister Su, you're here!"

When Qingping heard Liyue calling Su Yao "sister", she immediately became unhappy and said to Liyue, "Yue'er, how can you call A Yao sister? You should call her Aunt Su!"

Li Yue looked at Qing Ping helplessly and said, "Mom, you should call me sister. Sister Su is only so old!"

Qingping smiled and said, "How old are you? Her son is almost as old as you. From today on, Yue'er must call Ayao Aunt Su, remember?"

Liyue looked at Qingping helplessly and said, "Okay, I got it! Mother!"

Su Yao looked at the interaction between Qingping and her daughter, and thought to herself how nice it would be if she and her son could be like this!

When Qingping heard Liyue's words, she looked up at Su Yao and found that Su Yao was looking into the distance with a sad face. Qingping thought that Su Yao must be thinking about her son.

Qingping said to Liyue, "Yue'er, when are you going to send your Aunt Su away?"

After hearing Qingping's words, Liyue also looked at Su Yao. Seeing Su Yao's expression, she said to Su Yao, "Sister Su...Aunt Su, don't worry, Hanqi and I have already discussed it. Tomorrow we will go to the Huguo Temple on the outskirts of the city to burn incense. We will leave from there, and then Wang Yuxuan will come back to pick you up, and you can leave together!"

When Su Yao heard that Wang Yuxuan was coming to pick her up, she immediately said happily, "You said...you said Xuan'er would come to pick me up, that's great! That's great!"

After hearing what Li Yue said, Qing Ping happily said to Su Yao, "Ayao, that's great. You can finally be with your son!"

Su Yao nodded happily, but then she thought of Xu Chen and said to Li Yue with a worried look on her face, "What will happen to Xu Chen if I leave? His father won't let him go, and he has already broken up with Duke Xu for me. I can't hurt him anymore."

When Li Yue heard Su Yao's words, she immediately felt that Su Yao was a kind and righteous person. She smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. We have already thought of a way. When you leave, someone will take your place back to Xu Mansion, and someone will assassinate you on the way. You will die soon after you return to Xu Mansion!"

When Su Yao heard their method, she quickly said, "This way I can really leave, but Xu Chen will become a widower!"

Li Yue smiled and said, "I think Xu Chen is willing. In fact, he was the one who told us this method. And he was the one who asked us to help you in Jiangnan."

Su Yao said to Li Yue, "Really? Then I really owe him a lot."

Li Yue smiled and said, "It's okay, I believe he is willing."

Qingping listened to what they said and said to Su Yao, "Okay, don't think so much. I really want to reassure Lord Xu, so I think as long as you live a good life, he will be fine. And if you are not around and no one is restraining him, he will definitely be more prosperous."

Su Yao nodded and said, "Yes, I have been the one who has implicated him for so many years. If I were not here, maybe he would really break up with Duke Xu completely and help Prince Han. Then there would not be such a scene now."

Li Yue saw Su Yao's look and said comfortingly, "Okay, so don't think about it anymore. Everything will pass."

The three chatted for a while, and when Su Yao came out of the general's mansion, Duke Xu's spy told Duke Xu what had happened.

Duke Xu sneered and said, "Su Yao didn't want to marry the Duke of this country back then, and insisted on marrying my useless son. Now she is involved with General Li's mansion. I really don't know what my useless son wants to do."

The spy waited for Duke Xu's reply. Duke Xu looked at the person who came and said to him, "Go tell the butler to bring the young master back. Tell him that if he doesn't come, anything will happen to Su Yao. I will make her regret it then."

The spy quickly bowed and said, "Yes!"

Xufu

As soon as Su Yao returned to the Xu Mansion, Xu Shu, the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, said to Su Yao, "Madam, the master asked you to go directly to the study to find him when you come back."

Su Yao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Su Yao took the people around her to Xu Chen's study. As soon as Su Yao entered the study, she saw Xu Chen sitting in front of the desk, with an upright posture and dignified manner. He was wearing a long blue cloth gown with fluttering sleeves, which made him look more elegant. His long black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, his eyebrows were sharp, and his eyes were focused and deep.

His hands were placed lightly on the desk, his left hand holding a book, and his right hand flipping through the pages from time to time.

Outside the window, the breeze blew gently, blowing the pages of the book, making a rustling sound. But he seemed not to hear it, still concentrating on reading, as if he was isolated from everything in the outside world. Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and only he and the book formed a peaceful and beautiful picture.

Su Yao thought to herself, 'If age wasn't a problem, I would definitely stay with him forever.'

Xu Chen felt someone was looking at him, and he looked up quickly, and saw Su Yao looking at him with a smile. Xu Chen quickly stood up, helped Su Yao and said, "Sister Su, you are back? How is it?"

Su Yao smiled and said to Xu Chen, "Everything has been arranged. I also know what's going on. Xu Chen, are you really determined to do this? If you do this and let Duke Xu know, do you know what the consequences will be for you?"

Xu Chen smiled and helped Su Yao sit where he had just sat!
