I just want to die of old age

Madam Cao summoned the maids and servants and interrogated them strictly, trying to find out the murderer behind the scenes.

As a result, he was faced with a group of slaves who knew nothing about anything.

They were already asleep at night, so how could they notice anything wrong?

They all knelt there timidly, feeling extremely frightened, wondering if it was ghosts or gods causing trouble.

In the end, Mrs. Su did not meet her concubine and simply canceled today's greetings.

The concubines were puzzled. The lady had never been absent before, so could something have happened?

Aunt Liu even showed an expectant expression on her face, and she was looking forward to it happily in her heart, wondering if the lady had contracted a serious illness and didn't have much time left.

Su Yuzhu took advantage of the noisy and chaotic atmosphere in the mansion and secretly slipped out.

Women in this dynasty were still able to go out freely and there were not so many restrictions.

The street vendors kept calling out.

Su Yuzhu breathed in the fresh air, and this was indeed the smell of freedom.

There is no point in staying at home all day long.

After walking around for a while, I saw an antique restaurant.

The aroma is tangy.

Su Yuzhu felt a little tired after walking, so she went in to have a meal.

The waiter came forward attentively and asked, "How many girls are there?"

"I'm alone, please give me a quiet seat with a view of the scenery outside."

"Good."

Led by the waiter, Su Yuzhu came to the second floor and sat near the window, where she could just see the scenery outside.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Su Yumo, who was also having dinner in the restaurant with two elegantly dressed women.

The two of them were only separated by a table, it was like they were enemies meeting on a narrow road.

Su Yumo raised her eyebrows and said mockingly, "Isn't this Third Sister? You usually stay at home, so how could you be willing to come out?"

The only one wearing a red long dress and looking heroic is the general's daughter Qian Xier.

Another more delicate woman, Xiao Qiang, was wearing a light green long dress and exuded the air of scholarliness. Her father was the prime minister.

Both of them were concubines' daughters, but were deeply loved by their father.

Among them, Qian Xier covered her mouth and laughed, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

"You really follow the rules. I've never seen you leave the house."

They naturally noticed that Su Yumo's tone was not right, but they didn't care.

She is just an unpopular lady, what can she do to them?

Although Su Yuzhu was smiling, her tone was still mocking as she said, "You can't be like Second Sister, always flaunting yourself outside. Others will think that the daughter of the Minister of Rites is unruly."

Su Yumo was impatient and easily angered. She said anxiously, "Who is showing off?"

Su Yuzhu said slowly, "Whoever is in a hurry is the one who is talking."

He drank a glass of warm water, then glanced at Su Yumo with disdain.

Whoever gets impatient first loses.

"you……."

"As a lady from a wealthy family, you should be more careful not to be so noisy in public."

Su Yuzhu ordered a few signature dishes and asked the waiter to leave.

Su Yuzhu liked the way Su Yumo hated her but couldn't get rid of her.

Qian Xier was upset that her friend was being scolded, so she quickly stepped forward to speak up and said, "You're just an unloved fool, why are you showing off?"

As everyone knows, the Minister of Rites has two proud daughters.

The eldest daughter was a famous talented woman with extensive knowledge, and she married into a marquisate.

The second daughter is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is beautiful.

Only the third daughter was unknown and extremely unpopular, and it was rumored that she was a fool.

Su Yuzhu shook her head and said with disappointment, "Everyone has their own opinions. They say rumors stop with the wise. Now that I see this young lady, I am very disappointed."

Qian Xier noticed Su Yuzhu's ridicule, and she laughed in anger: "Do you think you can compare to Yumo? It's really ridiculous."

“Diligence can make up for lack of talent. Even the most talented person will be useless if they waste their time.”

Qian Xier stood up, clapped her hands and said, "Okay, you are so amazing, let us see it."

Su Yumo frowned slightly, but a smile could not be hidden in her eyes: "Sister, please don't act impulsively and affect the reputation of the mansion."

Su Yumo was hoping that Su Yuzhu would make a fool of herself, so she just gave a symbolic dissuasion.

He also secretly sent me a provocative look.

Su Yuzhu raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a sly smile on her face.

Su Yuzhu said sarcastically: "I'm not a monkey show, I'm not going to perform a show for you, why don't you come on stage and dance for me."

Qian Xier is not well-educated and has an impulsive personality, so Su Yumo always uses her as a tool.

Qian Xier's face turned red with anger.

Seeing this, Su Yumo quickly added fuel to the fire and said hypocritically, "How can you talk like that? It's just a competition."

Seeing that Su Yuzhu had been refusing to agree, Su Yumo thought that she was an uneducated fool.

He wanted to embarrass her in public so that no noble family would be interested in her.

Qian Xier said angrily: "Humph, he is really a straw bag."

Su Yuzhu sneered back, "I can't compare to you in this regard."

Xiao Qiang said softly, "It's just an ordinary fight. It won't hurt our friendship. We often spar like this."

Xiao Qiang's thoughts became even more profound, now that things had come to this.

If Su Yuzhu still refuses, then in this well-informed capital.

In an instant, it will be filled with all kinds of unpleasant news.

Su Yuzhu's reputation as a fool will spread far and wide.

Su Yuzhu said in a teasing tone: "I didn't say I wouldn't spar with you, why are you so worried?"

The three of them instantly had black lines on their faces.

Su Yumo looked worried, but in reality she was gloating as she said, "Don't go back and cry if you lose."

"I should say this to you. Your teeth are almost healed, right?"

Su Yuzhu suddenly started talking about something off topic, and only Su Yumo understood.

Su Yumo's eyes were blazing with anger, his hands were clenched tightly, and he glared at Su Yuzhu fiercely.

She had always been pampered in the mansion and had never been bullied like this.

Su Yumo gritted his teeth and said, "I'll just wait and see if you embarrass yourself later."

Su Yuzhu said with a smile: "How could that be? It's just a competition between sisters."

Xiao Qiang had already realized that Su Yuzhu had a plan in mind and did not seem like a fool.

Her eyes flickered slightly, revealing a strange look.

The waiter had already informed the shopkeeper smartly.

The restaurant owner immediately discovered a business opportunity. If the two ladies competed in the restaurant, it would definitely attract other people's attention.

Then the restaurant will become more famous and will attract more literati and poets.

The shopkeeper came over with a smile on his face: "If you two girls want to compete, we can provide a place here."

The guests around looked at this side with sparkling eyes, their eyes revealing an expression of interest.
