Early next morning

Su Yuejian received a letter from Sang Zhi, saying that Su Xuewei was thrown into a mass grave by beggars and then crawled onto the road and was rescued. The rescue carriage drove all the way into Prince Gong's Mansion.

She looked solemn after reading the contents of the letter. Just as she burned the letter, Qingshan appeared and reported.

"Princess, the attendants around Prince Gong brought back a poison doctor yesterday, along with a rotting person."

Poison doctor? This must be the evil doctor that served Xiao Chengchang in his previous life.

Su Xuewei was really lucky. Even in this state, she was still rescued and brought to Prince Gong's Mansion. But now she is a useless person who is worse than death. Why would that poison doctor save her?

She frowned and said after a moment's silence, "Go find out where that poison doctor came from."

"Yes." Qingshan nodded and disappeared.

The sun was shining brightly outside, but Su Yuejian's heart was filled with gloom, and she always had a bad premonition.

No matter what, she will never let Xiao Chengchang succeed in this life!

He must pay the price he deserves!

Although Su Yuejian has been declining invitations to banquets from various mansions during this period, he still receives many visiting cards every day.

Wu and Su Xiaoshi often came to Wutongju to chat and drink tea with her recently. She couldn't refuse them every time. She had to see them at least once every three or five times. However, she had to take care of the affairs of the mansion every day and really had no mood to deal with this mother and daughter.

Su Yuejian had concentrated on handling all the affairs in the mansion these past few days. Now the mansion had been cleaned up, and the maids in charge were all people she trusted after careful screening. With her grandmother in charge, Qinglan, Luyun and Butler Xu looking after them, nothing would go wrong.

Early this morning, I asked Yuzhu to report to the old lady and Master Su that I would be staying at the Duke of Huguo's mansion for a few days.

On the one hand, it will free up time for Su Wan to stabilize her business and find a good house, so that the people in the second branch can move out as soon as possible.

Secondly, she was really annoyed by the Wu mother and daughter, and it was just right for her to have some peace and quiet.

Old Madam Su and Su Lin already felt guilty towards the Lu family, and now that Su Yuejian wanted to go and accompany the Duke of Protectorate and his wife, they naturally agreed with both hands.

Su Lin also asked Butler Xu to prepare a lot of gifts for Su Yuejian to take to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

After sitting in the carriage, Su Yuejian's brows finally relaxed a little.

Yuzhu and Yinxin knew what Su Yuejian was thinking. They felt sorry for her tiredness and were annoyed with the Wu mother and daughter.

"Princess, how long will we stay this time?"

Yuzhu was a little dissatisfied.

Su Yuejian saw that Yuzhu was unhappy, and smiled lightly, "My grandparents are old, I want to spend a few more days with them."

Yuzhu curled her lips and said, "Princess, why are you doing this? The old lady and the master love you so much. If you want those people from the second house to leave, just tell them directly!"

Seeing Yuzhu's indignant look, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

"It's easy to kick them out, but Su Shiming and Wu are still the elders of the Su family's second branch. If they are kicked out, I'm afraid they will say something nonsense and ruin the reputation of the house. Besides, my father has always valued family ties, so it's not good to embarrass him."

"Now we finally got Sister Wan to take back the Su family's business. Once the silk shop is stable, she will have a place to stand even if she moves out."

Yin Xin said, "I heard that Miss Wan and Miss Can have negotiated several big deals. I think things will be stable soon."

Yuzhu sighed, "I hope they can understand the young lady's good intentions."

Su Yuejian smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Don't talk nonsense when you two go to your grandparents' house."

Yuzhu and Yinxin obeyed obediently.

A few days ago, Madam Lu and Duke Lu Zhenting received a letter saying that Su Yuejian was coming to stay for a while, and the couple were overjoyed.

The Duke of Protectorate's Mansion has been very busy these days.

Old Madam Lu quickly had the courtyard cleaned up. He and Zhong went out to buy various things for Su Yuejian. Lu Zhenting spent a lot of money to hire several chefs from restaurants to take charge of Su Yuejian's meals. Lu Zhan asked for all the precious poetry, books and classics in Shen Sibai's collection... The cheerful atmosphere in the whole mansion was almost as festive as the New Year.

It was already noon when the carriage arrived at the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

When Yuzhu opened the car door, she saw Madam Lu, the Duke, He, and Zhong standing at the gate waiting.

Su Yuejian hurriedly got off the carriage, and when she saw the people at the door, she immediately smiled sweetly and trotted over.

"Grandfather! Grandmother!"

Su Yuejian hugged Madam Lu and Lu Zhenting.

Looking at their well-behaved and beautiful grandson, Mrs. Lu and Lu Zhenting smiled so hard that their mouths reached their ears.

"Ouch, okay, okay, go slower..." Madam Lu said with a laugh, fearing that she would fall.

"Grandma, Yue'er misses you so much." Su Yuejian pulled Madam Lu and said coquettishly and affectionately.

Hearing these soft words, Madam Lu became even happier. Lu Zhenting on the side was unhappy and coughed lightly to show his presence.

“Ahem…”

Su Yuejian understood his little thoughts at a glance and said sweetly, "And Grandpa, Yue'er misses you too!"

Looking at He and Zhong behind them, Su Yuejian tried to treat them equally and continued, "And Aunt Eldest and Aunt Second, Yue'er has been thinking about you all the time at home!"

He and Zhong's faces were smiling like flowers.

It turns out that girls are still cute!

Looking at Su Yuejian's clever look, Lu Zhenting said lovingly, "Okay, okay, you are the one with the sweet talk!"

Then, they entered the Duke's Mansion together, chatting and laughing.

Walking on the corridor, Su Yuejian said, "Grandfather, father and grandmother are also thinking about you and grandmother very much, especially father. Knowing that Yue'er is coming, he prepared a lot of things for you!"

Lu Zhenting was always dissatisfied with Su Lin in his heart, but he still made every effort in front of Su Yue. He nodded slightly and smiled, "Okay, he is thoughtful."

When she arrived at the dining room, Su Yuejian was surprised to see the table full of thirty-six dishes. The feast was as big as her grandmother's birthday party.

He and Zhong affectionately pulled her to sit down, and several people at the table took turns serving food to her. After the meal, Su Yue saw that her stomach was bulging.

After the meal, the old Duke and his wife went to take a rest, and He and Zhong took Su Yuejian to their residence.

As you step into the Wisteria Garden, you will see an exquisite and quaint courtyard with many wisteria trees planted in it. The most eye-catching one is the wisteria that fills the trellises.

The thick vines coiled around the racks like a dragon, and clusters of pale purple wisteria flowers hung down like a purple waterfall.

As the breeze blew, the wisteria flowers swayed gently, and the petals fell like a dream, scattering on the bluestone ground, and the stone road was also dyed with a touch of elegant purple.

Su Yuejian and the maids were dazzled by the beautiful scenery.

He brought her in and said kindly, "This was the courtyard that once belonged to my third sister. Although Mother had many courtyards cleaned, she thought you would want to get to know your mother better, so she arranged for the Wisteria Courtyard to be yours. The original furnishings here have remained unchanged, and only some new items have been added to the house."

Su Yuejian felt warm in her heart. All of Lu Jinru's personal belongings in the Su Mansion were burned in the fire. Apart from the red jade ruyi pendant, she had never seen anything else related to her mother.

Zhong said, "And your second uncle heard that you like to swing at home, so he and Zhan'er worked together to make one for you."

Su Yuejian looked at the exquisite rattan swing chair under the wisteria trellis, which was covered with auspicious cloud brocade cushions. It could be seen that her second uncle and third brother were very thoughtful.

Su Yuejian smiled with emotion and said, "Second uncle and third brother have worked hard. I'd like to trouble my second aunt to thank them for me."

Mrs. Zhong smiled and said, "We're all family, so why bother with polite words like thank you? Later, take a look around the house to see if there's anything missing. If there's anything you don't like or aren't used to, just tell us. Don't be shy."

Su Yue smiled sweetly and bowed to express her gratitude.

He and Zhong had already had her things arranged, and now that they were in the yard, they let her have a good rest and did not disturb her any further.

Before leaving, she saw that she only took Yinxin and Yuzhu with her, and left a large number of maids with her. She repeatedly refused and the two finally compromised, but she still felt uneasy and left two maids, Qiulan and Xiaxiang, with her.

Qiulan and Xiaxiang looked at Su Yuejian's stunning beauty with their eyes shining.

After seeing off He and Zhong, Su Yuejian entered the main house with four maids. As soon as she entered, she noticed various weapons placed in the side room, a red armor placed next to the desk, and an exquisite sword placed by the window.

Su Yuejian walked forward and stroked the cold scabbard of the long sword with trembling hands. Looking at the word "Jin" engraved on the hilt, tears could no longer be controlled and fell.

Several maids looked at Su Yuejian holding her sword and trembling with tears, and their eyes also turned red with heartache. Yuzhu wanted to go forward to comfort her, but Yinxin held her back and shook her head.

Seeing the tears falling like rain, Su Yue swore an even greater oath in her heart.

She will definitely find out the real murderer of her mother and avenge her mother!
