It's all ruined, who cares about the chastity arch

Xu shook her head hastily, a trace of panic flashing in her eyes, "Except for you, Your Highness, I dare not reveal the slightest bit to anyone. Before my father died, he specifically instructed that this hairpin can only be given to the person closest to Mr. Song."

"Therefore, every day I carefully hide this hairpin deep in the layer of my clothes, for fear that anyone would see the slightest trace of it."

Xu's eyes were full of caution and worry.

Siqi's gaze stayed on Su Wanyu for a moment, then turned to Xu. Her voice was gentle but powerful, "In this case, do not disclose this matter to anyone in the future. Her Royal Highness appreciates your superb skills. You just need to run the shop wholeheartedly, and you and your daughter will have no worries about food and clothing in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xu was so moved that tears almost came out of her eyes. She bowed repeatedly to express her gratitude.

Then, she turned to Su Wanyu and bowed deeply, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I and I will remember this friendship in our hearts and repay you with gratitude one day."

As she finished speaking, tears were already welling up in her eyes, ready to overflow.

The little girl beside her, holding a handkerchief tightly in her hand, stood on tiptoe and stretched out her arms to wipe away the tears from her mother's eyes. "Mom, don't cry. From now on, no one can bully us anymore."

Xu hugged her daughter tightly, took the handkerchief, and gently wiped the tears from her cheeks. "Yes, from now on, no one can hurt us mother and daughter anymore."

Seeing that Xu's mother and daughter were covered in scars, Su Wanyu specially arranged for a skilled doctor to come and treat them before leaving.

Fortunately, the injuries of the mother and daughter were serious but not fatal. They only need to rest for half a month to recover.

Originally, he wanted to temporarily close the shop so that the mother and daughter could rest in peace, but Xu politely refused, insisting on not letting personal reasons affect the Tan family's business.

Faced with Xu's insistence, Su Wanyu no longer forced her, and instead left her personal attendant and servant Xiao Si in the shop, to protect the safety of the mother and daughter and to help share some physical work.

After arranging everything, Su Wanyu returned to the Su Mansion with the hairpin that carried so many secrets and a heavy heart.

First, she went straight to Mr. Su, respectfully presented the hairpin to him, and asked him to identify and comment on it.

Master Su looked at it carefully, and suddenly he realized, "Isn't this the hairpin I made with my own hands?"

Su Wanyu was quite surprised. "Father, do you remember who this hairpin belonged to?"

Master Su gently stroked his beard, his eyes gradually blurred, and he fell into deep memories, "I made this hairpin for your mother on a whim, but later she gave it to someone else, and I haven't seen it for a long time."

"To whom was it given?"

Su Wanyu kept asking, already having a vague idea of ​​the answer in her mind.

Master Su continued, "It was given to Old Madam Pei. At that time, your mother had not yet married me. She was just a talented embroiderer. She brought this hairpin to the Pei residence to tailor clothes for Old Madam Pei. The old lady loved this hairpin very much and intended to give it to her beloved granddaughter as a birthday gift."

And the granddaughter raised by Old Madam Pei was no other than Pei Jingliu.

Su Wanyu's guess was confirmed, and her frown gradually relaxed.

It turned out that the mother had long been aware of Concubine Pei's evil intentions and secretly investigated but unfortunately was beaten to it by the other party and was killed.

She tightly grasped the hairpin in her hand, her eyes were as cold as ice, and her hatred for Concubine Pei grew stronger.

Concubine Pei, you killed my biological mother, coveted my brother's kingdom, and tried to kill me many times. I must settle this blood feud with you.

Concubine Pei, I will expose your true face hidden behind the mask of hypocrisy to the world so that everyone can see your ugly face.

Su Wanyu swore secretly in her heart, and then had an in-depth discussion with her father about all the secrets of the Pei family's past.

The conversation between father and daughter continued until late at night.

The next morning, several shop owners from other stores heard the news and came to express their dissatisfaction and doubts about the appointment of female shop owners.

In order to save her father from worrying about this, Su Wanyu took the initiative to step forward and go to the front yard to receive the guests in person. She properly resolved the incident with clever means and a tough attitude.

This group of shopkeepers are different from the greedy and stupid shopkeeper Liu. She not only gives them certain sweet benefits, but also remembers to sound the alarm in time to remind them not to cause trouble again.

Under Su Wanyu's powerful aura, this group of people did not dare to move and left silently.

"Siqi, what is the current situation of Manager Liu who was sent to the government?"

Su Wanyu turned to ask Siqi.

Siqi replied, "That guy is as timid as a mouse. He usually abuses his wife and children at home. Once he fell into the hands of the official, he was so scared that he confessed everything before he was even interrogated."

"How do you plan to deal with such a person, young lady?"

Siqi asked immediately.

"Is he willing to sign the divorce papers?"

Su Wanyu asked.

"He did say that he would never agree to it unless he died."

Siqi paused for a moment and added, "No, to be more precise, even if he was going to die, he would drag the mother and daughter to be buried with him!"

Su Wanyu lowered her eyes, her jet-black eyelashes trembled slightly, and a barely perceptible chill shone through her pupils that looked like a stream under the ice, cold and resolute.

"Since he is so determined, let's fulfill his wish."

As the words fell, it seemed as if he had made some kind of decision, and there was unquestionable power in his tone.

After she finished speaking, she slowly took out a bag of heavy silver from the embroidered bag. The silver sparkled with a cold luster under the light, just like her mood at the moment.

He gently handed it to Siqi beside him, and his tone contained an order that could not be disobeyed: "Send him to Yingzhou for exile, and make sure he never returns."

After she finished speaking, her eyes swept out the window, as if she had foreseen the man's distant fate of exile.

"Yes, Miss."

Siqi took the heavy silver, and the gloom on her face seemed to disappear with the wind, replaced by a strange smile, as if the success of the mission had already painted a satisfactory picture in her heart.

That night, when the stars faded, Su Wanyu quietly assigned her men to sneak into Xu's room in the dark.

Xu is famous for his superb craftsmanship. His quick movements and precise techniques are breathtaking.

Her room was brightly lit, needle and thread were flying at her fingertips, and every subtle movement revealed the rigor and meticulousness unique to a craftsman.

In just five days, Xu's skillful hands created a coral hair accessory that looked so lifelike that it was perfectly formed. The color was warm and the luster was so realistic that even experts would find it difficult to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

After receiving the notice, Siqi went to retrieve the carefully imitated hairpin in person. Stepping on the morning dew, she walked into the Tan family teahouse and carefully handed the small item to Qingya, a palace maid who was about to enter the palace. It seemed that she was also handing over some important secret.

Qingya, holding a hairpin in hand, walked briskly through the corridor, and finally entered the heavily guarded gate of the palace. Under the moonlight, her figure gradually disappeared in the magnificent palace.
