Rebirth is not a dream.
Chapter 63 New Year Gift from the Su Family
Su Yue slept well all night and didn't even have a dream, which surprised her. After all, since she came to this strange world, she has been troubled by all kinds of strange dreams every night. Maybe it's because Qin Yi is by her side, he seems to have a kind of reassuring power.
In the early morning, the sunlight shone through the window onto Su Yue's face, gently waking her up. She stretched and then simply enjoyed some breakfast. Back on the couch, Su Yue prepared to drink a cup of tea and relax herself. At this moment, Yanyan came in holding Yaoyao.
Su Yue liked Yanyan more and more. This clever girl was a treasure. Whenever Su Yue danced, Yanyan would gently stroke the strings of the zither to accompany her; and when she needed to do arithmetic, Yanyan could use an abacus expertly. Not only that, she was also good at coaxing children. With Yanyan by her side, Su Yue felt much more relaxed.
What made Su Yue even happier was that Fubao gradually became less timid these days than when he first came. He began to learn to say some simple words, such as "mother", "eat" and "play".
Not only that, Xingyu and Sister Bijun also treated Fubao very well. Su Yue originally wanted to find another nanny for Fubao, but now that Sister Bijun was taking care of her, she felt relieved. Without Aunt Cheng, her Yunxiao Courtyard seemed to be much quieter and more comfortable.
Madam Tao hurried in and reported to Su Yue, "Miss, the Su family's New Year's goods have been delivered, a total of sixteen carriages! Four of the carriages are full of rare antiques and precious items, and Butler Liu has personally sent them to Su Garden for proper placement. The other twelve carriages are loaded with various foods and daily necessities, and Butler Liu specially sent people to deliver them to the Marquis' Mansion."
Su Yue was very surprised. She had never expected that the things sent by Su Lao would arrive so quickly. At this time, Aunt Tao handed over another small box. Su Yue took it curiously and opened it. She saw a thick stack of silver bills neatly arranged inside. She roughly estimated that these silver bills were about more than 100,000 taels. Su Yue couldn't help but sigh that this old man Su loved little Su Yue very much!
Then, Su Yue happily led Taozi and Madam Tao to Zhichun Courtyard. Su Yue walked slowly into the house. When Lu Ying saw her coming in, he hurried forward and bowed, saying, "Hello, Third Young Madam. Madam is waiting for you inside! Today, Jinxiufang sent someone to measure you, and Madam is busy cutting new clothes for the masters in the mansion."
Su Yue smiled slightly and said softly, "Sister Lu is so polite." After that, she walked into the front hall.
As soon as she entered the front hall, Su Yue saw that the Second Madam and the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Young Ladies were all there, but the First Young Madam was not there. She heard that Brother Rui was feeling a little unwell, and the First Young Madam had been taking care of him these days. Su Yue immediately performed a standard greeting to the Marquis's wife, saying, "Hello, Madam Marquis."
Seeing this, the Marquis's wife smiled and said, "Third daughter-in-law, please excuse me from the formalities in the future."
Su Yue replied gratefully, "Thank you, Madam." She wondered in her heart, why was the Marquis's wife so polite today? Was it because of the incident with the Fourth Prince yesterday? Could it be that because of this, the Marquis's wife changed her attitude towards her? Thinking of this, Su Yue couldn't help but sigh that power is a good thing!
The Second Madam looked at Su Yue and said, "Third niece, you are a little late. Take a look at these materials and pick one if you like it."
Su Yue looked at the Second Madam and said, "Second Madam, have you chosen all the materials?"
The seventh sister said, "I picked a scarlet one. The fifth sister picked a pink one, and the sixth sister picked a cyan one."
Su Yue smiled and replied, "I believe in the sisters' vision. The ones they leave behind must be good." As she spoke, she glanced at them casually.
The Marquis's wife smiled and said, "My third daughter-in-law is quite straightforward. However, these fabrics were specially selected by me, and each one has its own unique features. You might as well take a closer look."
Su Yue approached the fabric and gently stroked it. It was indeed soft and delicate. She couldn't help but admire: "Madam has a good eye."
The Second Madam interrupted and said, "Of course, Madam is the head mistress of our Marquis' Mansion."
Su Yue smiled slightly but did not respond. She picked out a piece of light blue silk, thinking that this color would be suitable for a fresh and elegant dress.
After choosing the fabric, Su Yue chatted with Madam Hou for a while. Then she smiled and said to Madam Hou: "My father sent some New Year's goods. Madam, please ask the housekeeper to collect them and share them with the sisters in the mansion so that everyone can have fun together."
Before the Marquis's wife could even open her mouth to speak, the Second Lady beside her couldn't wait to interrupt and ask, "What did your father give you?"
Su Yue cast her eyes towards Aunt Tao who was standing beside her and asked softly, "Aunt Tao, have you seen the things my father sent?" Aunt Tao replied respectfully, "My lady, I haven't checked them yet. Master Su sent twelve carts of New Year gifts this time."
Upon hearing this, the Second Madam frowned and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone: "Don't they send sixteen carts every year? Why are there four less this year?" Su Yue secretly sighed in her heart, this Second Madam is really greedy! So she responded calmly: "Is there a clear rule that sixteen carts must be sent as New Year's gifts? Does the eldest sister-in-law's family also send so many? And will your family also send you so many gifts?" The Second Madam was speechless by Su Yue's questioning, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
At this time, the Marquis's wife came out to smooth things over. She asked with concern, "How is the master?" Su Yue smiled and replied, "Dad is doing business in Bingzhou, everything is fine. Please ask the housekeeper to send someone to properly place the twelve carts of things as soon as possible."
The Marquis's wife nodded and called the housekeeper to arrange for the collection of the annual gifts. After the housekeeper left, the Marquis's wife took Su Yue and asked, "Yue'er, how did you get to know the Fourth Prince?"
Su Yue thought that the Marquis' wife would not ask about the Fourth Prince, or that Qin Yi had already told her about it. Unexpectedly, the Marquis' wife still asked about it, and replied: "It was when we met the severely injured Fourth Prince on Baiyun Mountain, so we called the monks to carry the Fourth Prince to Baiyun Temple, and the abbot treated him. I didn't know that I was saving the prince at the time."
Madam Hou nodded thoughtfully, "I see...it's really fate."
She looked at Su Yue, with a hint of admiration in her eyes, "Yue'er, you did a good job. However, if you encounter similar things in the future, you must inform the mansion first and never act on your own."
Su Yue responded obediently, "Yes, madam, Yue'er understands. Madam, if there is nothing else, Yue'er will go back first." The marquis's wife nodded in agreement, "Okay, you go back and have a good rest. Just tell me if you need anything." Su Yue bowed to the marquis's wife again, then left Zhichunyuan with Madam Tao and Taozi.
