A dream ends life

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Another knock on the door.

Liu Yunjin then pushed the door open.

"Bai Li, Miss Bai Shuang, I understand your feelings, but we really can't delay any longer. The court has urged us many times."

If they don't proceed according to procedure, the court will not tolerate them and there is a possibility that they will be replaced.

Liu Baishuang had sarcasm in her eyes and smiled charmingly and ostentatiously: "What if I insist on waiting?"

Liu Yunjin took a deep breath and looked at her: "The Su family may not be able to live without you, but the court will not."

"Haha~ Are you going to kill the donkey after it's done? But the donkey hasn't finished what it needs to do yet. Don't you think it's a bit hasty?"

Liu Yunjin smiled helplessly: "Am I not also a donkey in there?" His position was in jeopardy, and everyone in the court was eyeing this lucrative position, so he was not very comfortable either.

"Lord Liu, you should think clearly about what the original purpose of the Four Nations Trade City was. A double-edged sword cannot be used by everyone at will. Be careful or the world will be in chaos!"

The four countries are involved in too much trade. If they are not careful, there will be chaos in each country and the whole continent will be in war.

Liu Yunjin lowered his eyes. Of course he knew.

"Sir, the master and the old lady are here, and they are now outside the city."

Liu Yunjin frowned.

Liu Baishuang said in a cold voice: "Master Liu, you'd better take care of your family. This is not the Liu family. Be careful not to cause trouble for the Liu family or yourself!"

Liu Yunjin did not reply, because he also knew who was coming. His face was not very good either.

I hurried to the outside of the city and saw a long line of carriages in the distance.

At the head of the team was a tall middle-aged man whose features were somewhat similar to Liu Yunjin’s, and who had a gentle smile on his face.

Liu Yunjin quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Father."

The man nodded and said, "You've worked hard, my son. Go meet your mother and sister."

Liu Yunjin bowed and then looked at the carriage behind.

The curtain of the most luxurious carriage was lifted high by the old woman, revealing the mother and daughter with gentle eyes and brows inside.

Next to Su Yun was a typical southern gentle woman, petite, with soft eyes and charming eyebrows. The water-like woman, with the precipitation of years, had an indescribable beauty.

Liu Yunjin bowed: "Mother, I am fine."

Jiang Zhiyan looked at Liu Yunjin lovingly, and gently raised her well-maintained hand to support him, "Jin'er, please get up quickly. My son has worked so hard and has lost a lot of weight. I am so heartbroken."

As he spoke, he pressed the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

Su Yun snuggled up to Jiang and said in a soft voice, "Mother has been thinking about my eldest brother all the way. Why does she feel sad when she sees him? We should be happy to be together as a family."

"Yes! Yes! I should be happy. Look at my shallow eyes. I am such a loser."

Liu Yunjin whispered a few words to coax them, and the two men stood outside the carriage, looking at the mother and daughter in the carriage with smiles. The family looked particularly warm.

The convoy slowly entered the city. Baili Ci and Liu Baishuang, who were watching from a high place, returned to their seats and sat down.

Baili Ci: "Here comes with bad intentions."

Liu Baishuang sneered: "So what? What can she do as a remarried woman? She is now a wife of the Liu family, she has no right to interfere in the affairs of the Su family!"

Baili Ci is not as broad-minded as her. The Jiang family of the Su family cannot interfere, but Su Yun can.

As long as Su Yun is the head of the Su family, she can do whatever she wants.

Jiang is Su Ci’s biological mother. She can do whatever she wants to others, but what about Su Ci?

She is the elder, and even if she remarries, she is still her biological mother, and no one can change that.

Su Yun wants Jiang to suppress Su Ci.

She knew that Su Ci would return to Qi State, so how could she not make preparations?

Jiang is her most useful weapon.

Liu Baishuang's face flushed with anger. "How can they be so shameless! That woman..."

In the end, they didn't say anything too excessive, not because they were afraid of her, but because they were concerned about Su Ci. Su Ci could do it, but they couldn't.

Everyone has their own thoughts and calculations, and they are all secretly planning for themselves.

But day by day passed.

The Su Ci they were all waiting for did not show up.

one day,

Two days,

Three days...

The commercial city is still under construction. The merchants inside witness the changes in the city every day and calculate the territory they will take over.

Every inch of land here is worth a lot of money. Although there is no difficulty in selling properties anywhere, who doesn’t want the best location?

Merchants from Qi State also came here one after another.

There are also several people from royal merchant families.

As the initiator of the commercial city, the Su family has the right to manage all matters in the city.

Su Yun's value here skyrocketed, and she became a person that merchants and officials from several countries wanted to make friends with.

She dresses herself up in jewels and jade every day and enjoys people's admiring gazes.

Everyone else was respectful to her, the only ones who were dissatisfied were her two stewards who didn't follow her instructions!

Su Yun gritted her teeth secretly, but she could only grit her teeth secretly, because although Baili Ci and Liu Baishuang were the chief stewards, their words carried a lot of weight in the Su family.

Without it.

Before Su Ci left, she left all her property to the two of them.

Even though Su Yun is the current head of the family, she is still quite constrained in front of the two of them.

These two people protected Su Ci's property like a piece of cake, otherwise, Brother Chuan would have been of great help long ago.

Thinking of what she had promised those people, Su Yun took a deep breath. As the head of the family, she naturally had to act like one and could not always let two outsiders suppress her.

"What did you say?" Liu Baishuang looked at Su Yun in disbelief.

Su Yun said calmly, "I have already made the decision. There is no need to discuss it further. I am just informing you."

Liu Baishuang had a hot temper and when she heard what Su Yun said, she wanted to pull her hair.

Even though Baili Ci was a mild-mannered person, he was still furious.

"Those shops are the best shops in the four city gates, and you gave them away so easily. How much benefit did you get from them? Are you so short of money? This is your sister's hard work, and you are just wasting it like this?"

Su Yun looked at the two people in confusion: "It is because of my sister's hard work that I will carry it forward. Without me, the blueprint is still gathering dust in the box. You treat my sister's hard work like this, which is a waste."

"Also, if you don't exchange this city for silver, should you use it for charity? What have I done wrong?"

"I am the patriarch of the Su family. Please recognize your own identity!"

Liu Baishuang and Baili Ci looked at her coldly.

"My poor sister's kindness to you has gone to waste! This is how you repay your own sister. You don't deserve to be a member of the Su family!"

Su Yun slammed the table, "How dare you! You are so bold to offend the head of the family. Today, either obey my orders or get out of here. My Su family does not support idle people!"

"You are the one who should leave! You are not worthy of being a member of my Su family, let alone the head of my Su family!"

A few dusty men strode in from outside the door.

Su Ci saw the people coming and his eyes flashed with disdain: "So it's my cousins. It's not your turn to point fingers at us as the legitimate bloodline. Except for my sister, no one has the right to remove me from the position of the head of the family!"

A man raised his hand and revealed the jade pendant in his hand: "Pass the order of the head of the family! Su Yan, the eldest son of the Su family, is the head of the Su family."

"Su Yun, you are a child who followed your mother to remarry. You are no longer a member of our Su family. In the past, we didn't bother with you because you were Xiaoci's only sister. But you shouldn't repeatedly use the interests of the Su family in exchange for an unreliable promise from a man. The Su family is not a stepping stone for you. Leave now."

When Su Yun saw the jade pendant, she froze where she was.
