"It's just that a lot of things have been forgotten."

"Brother Xuan never spoke to me, and I am deeply hurt."

"I want to ask my elder brother, was it really an accident back then? Or did Lord Ji have ulterior motives?"

As she finished speaking, Su Yunzhu tried hard to squeeze out the tears, which stayed in her eyes.

In her sleeves, she was clutching the flesh of her thighs so tightly that it hurt!

She tried her best!

When Su Chongzheng heard this, he hurriedly explained, "Yunzhu, don't misunderstand! Those are just rumors, don't take them seriously."

"I know you don't believe it, but so many years have passed. Let the past be the past. Didn't the Marquis treat you very well?"

"Yes, Yunzhu, your elder brother is right. It's not your sister-in-law who is criticizing you. Why do you think about such unbearable past events when you come back? The family should be happy when you come back." Mrs. Su Qin chimed in.

Hearing their consistent tone, Su Yunzhu knew that it would be difficult to get them to say anything easily.

She simply shouted, "Brother!"

"You know! This is what I hate the most! My brother Xuan left me, and I can't accept it!"

"I want the Marquis to go to jail...!"

The latter part of the story sounded so chilling that Su Chongzheng became nervous and broke out in a cold sweat.

He said, "That's not necessary. Lord Ji is a hereditary marquis, he is highly respected and much better than that young master."

"His father hasn't...right? The Yan family has no real power. Young Master Yan hasn't passed any imperial examinations since then. He should just become a mediocre official."

"But Lord Ji not only has a title, but also has been granted some soldiers by His Majesty. This is different from the young master..." Okay.

Before he finished speaking, Su Yunzhu interrupted, "What does it have to do with me!"

"I just want to be with Brother Xuan forever... for the rest of my life..."

Su Yunzhu rushed over, hugged Su Chongzheng's knees, with tears in her eyes!

But he was scared to death. This second sister was really determined not to change!

"Someone, take this young lady to rest." Su Chongzheng helped Su Yunzhu up and gave the order.

Soon, a servant took her to the side room to rest.

In the main hall, a family sighed heavily!

Ji Qianqian didn't understand what was going on, so she just watched quietly, only to hear Su Chongzheng say, "You really shouldn't have done that..."

Mother-in-law Qin said, "It doesn't matter what she should or shouldn't do. It's Yunzhu's blessing!"

"The Yan family is a dangerous place full of intrigues and schemes. They are even worse than Lord Ji!"

"If you ask me, if Third Master's Shao Lan can hold on a little longer, I think Lord Ji will be able to take a concubine!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Su Chongzheng slammed his fist on the table, angrily.

"Shao Lan is young enough to be our daughter. Don't set your sights on my third brother's daughter!"

"Don't say such things anymore! You are so rude!"

Qin curled her lips and dared not say anything.

Su Chongzheng added, "If you could give birth to a daughter, why would you miss other people's daughters so much? It's really outrageous!"

"Father-in-law, please stop scolding my mother-in-law. She just speaks her mind at the moment." Ji Qianqian stepped forward to comfort Qin and said to Su Chongzheng.

Su Chongzheng glanced at Ji Qianqian coldly, "Go down, you have nothing to do here!"

Hearing this, Ji Qianqian was stunned.

Su Siqian waved his hand, "You can go down."

Helplessly, Ji Qianqian could only bow and leave, and left the main hall, feeling extremely depressed!

Isn't the Su family also in such a dangerous place? Everyone is so arrogant!

As expected, her family was not destined to be rich.

After a while, she came to the side room to visit Su Yunzhu and comforted her, "Aunt, please don't be angry."

"Lord Ji treated you like this, from now on you and our Ji family are one family!"

"I have always respected you as my second aunt. I wonder if my eldest brother has found a wife?"

After a few words, Ji Qianqian went back to Ji Changfeng.

Su Yunzhu lowered her head, looking unhappy, "I'm not in the mood to care about this now."

"I have done my best to help you marry into the Su family. I can hardly protect myself now, and I miss Brother Xuan very much..."

After listening to her aunt's words, Ji Qianqian's face darkened!

They have lived separately for more than ten years, but they still call each other Brother Xuan!

But Ji Qianqian still held back and said with a smile, "Don't be sad, aunt. In fact, it's not just Lord Ji's fault."

"Didn't the young master also send palace servants to rescue them back then? It was just a little late."

"Lord Ji may be impatient and afraid of delaying things, so he sacrificed himself to save you."

Su Yunzhu said, "Why should he save me? It's unnecessary!"

Ji Qianqian pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "Aunt, you don't have to worry about this anymore. Worry about my eldest brother's affairs first!"

Su Yunzhu pushed her away, "I don't want to! I sent a visiting card to the Duke's Mansion, but it hasn't been answered yet. I don't want to do anything else."

Ji Qianqian, "..."

She looked around and saw the Su family was there, so she simply said, "It wasn't Lord Ji who did it, why are you still brooding over it!"

After saying this, Ji Qianqian widened her eyes in shock and spoke too quickly.

Unexpectedly, Su Yunzhu also stared at her, holding her arm and asking, "What did you say? How could it not be Lord Ji's fault? It's his fault!"

Ji Qianqian was fed up with listening to this and said in annoyance, "If I say it's not true, then it's not true!"

"Not long after you got married, the Yan family married a new wife. Maybe there is some hidden reason!"

"What's the secret?" Su Yunzhu said calmly.

Ji Qianqian realized that she had said too much, so she withdrew her hand and stood up, saying, "I don't know, aunt, since you hate Lord Ji, you should use your status as the Marquis' wife to make plans for our Ji family."

"Look, my eldest brother hasn't even found a wife yet!"

"..." Su Yunzhu's face turned cold, and after she sorted out her thoughts, she said, "Okay, as long as you tell me the truth of what happened back then, I will consider choosing a good wife for Chang Feng."

Ji Qianqian was silent, she didn't dare to speak.

These are all rotten in your stomach, you must never speak out!

But my aunt's condition is right in front of me...

"I..." Ji Qianqian hesitated, and Su Yunzhu grabbed her wrist again. She said with a serious look, "Qianqian, think about your elder brother."

"He is now two years old and still hasn't married. It's a bit late."

"When I was a child, Feng had been married for a year."

"Think about it. Even if it's the Yan family's fault, I admit it..."

As soon as the words came out, Ji Qianqian immediately covered Su Yunzhu's mouth with a handkerchief and shook her head, "Aunt, stop talking."

"The Yan family wanted to marry the Zhang family's daughter in order to repay a favor, so they plotted to make you fall into the water, and Lord Ji rescued you by mistake."

"No one is wrong, it's just that the affection between you two was sacrificed."

"Aunt, don't be sad. I know this incident will be a big blow to you, but this is the truth. My father-in-law and mother-in-law know it, but they don't want to talk about it."

"Because this incident will be a big blow to Master Su, Father-in-law will discuss the pros and cons with the Yan family. After Master Su passes away, the Yan family will help Father-in-law to successfully obtain the position of Shangshu Lang."

In other words, it was not easy for Su Chongzheng to be promoted from a minor official in the Ministry of Revenue to a Shangshulang.

Among them, the permission and encouragement of many parties are definitely indispensable!

Hearing this, Su Yunzhu's eyes were indifferent, not as crazy and silly as Ji Qianqian had imagined.
