The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner
Chapter 20 Avoiding Suspicion
After the Regent left,
Su Yuejian returned to the house and sat on the Arhat couch, lost in thought.
Death warriors...
Qiao's family had been convicted and exiled long ago, and she had no power or influence, so how could they send assassins to assassinate her?
Could it be that she really misunderstood Qiao?
But apart from Qiao Wanyun, she couldn't think of anyone else who had a grudge against her.
Su Yuejian was puzzled.
Just as I was lost in thought, Yuzhu came over.
Staring at the pastries on the table.
"Miss, these cakes smell so good."
Seeing her greedy look, Yin Xin raised her hand and gently touched her forehead, jokingly saying,
"Stay away from the lady, your saliva is about to flow down."
Yuzhu snorted and stared at the pastries without blinking.
"This is made by Hachihosai, the most famous restaurant in Kyoto."
Su Yue couldn't help laughing when she saw her looking like a greedy cat.
"You and Yinxin can eat whatever you want. There's more over there. Remember to save some for Qinglan."
The birthday banquet cannot be taken lightly. Qinglan is now inspecting every corner of the inner courtyard to check if there is anything missing that needs to be renovated.
Hearing Su Yuejian say this, Yuzhu was instantly happy.
He picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and wanted to share it with Yinxin.
Yinxin waved her hand and turned to look at Su Yuejian.
"Miss, don't you want to eat it? I see there is your favorite lotus cake inside."
Yuzhu had a pastry in her mouth and looked at her when she heard that.
"Miss, don't you love cakes the most? Why did you tell the Regent today that you don't like them?"
Yuzhu said vaguely.
Yinxin looked at her helplessly, this little foodie.
"You're so stupid. Of course, it's to avoid suspicion. The Prince Regent hasn't married yet. If we get too close, Miss Yu's reputation will be damaged if the news gets out."
Yuzhu's eyes rolled, somewhat puzzled.
"But I think His Royal Highness the Regent is a very good man. How many noble ladies in the capital would love to have a chance to speak to him! And I discovered last time that the prince treats our young lady very differently. I think if the young lady were to be with the prince, she would be a hundred times better than that Mr. He!"
Yinxin quickly covered her mouth and looked outside. There were only a few maids cleaning the courtyard gate.
Whispering scolding,
"Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Yuzhu also realized that she had spoken out of turn, so she closed her mouth and kept silent, eating the cake in small bites.
I secretly glanced at Su Yuejian's expression, fortunately she was not angry.
Su Yue knew that Yuzhu had a simple mind and no other intentions, but it was inevitable that words could cause trouble, so she warned her,
"Yinxin is right. The Regent is of noble status and I cannot marry him. Please don't say such things again in the future."
Yuzhu nodded seriously.
He picked up a piece of hibiscus cake and handed it to her, "Miss, try it."
Su Yuejian took the pastry, lifted her veil, brought it to her mouth and took a bite, her eyes brightened instantly.
Sweet but not greasy, refreshing and fragrant, it’s really delicious!
Su Yuejian picked up a piece and handed it to Yinxin, saying with a smile, "You can have some too. I remember you like almond pastries."
Yinxin took it and felt warm in her heart.
"Why are you daydreaming? Come and try it."
Yuzhu smiled at her and picked up a small piece of walnut cake and put it into her mouth.
Seeing her greedy appearance, Yin Xin touched her belly and teased her
"Yuzhu, you've gained some weight recently."
Yuzhu paused as she stretched out her hand to grab the food, and touched the soft flesh around her waist guiltily.
"Bad Yinxin, I'm not fat! I'm just growing!"
As he said that, he reached out to tickle her.
Seeing the two of them playing and joking around, Su Yue also felt happy.
As soon as Su Xuewei entered Wutongju, she heard laughter coming from the house.
She tightened her grip on the handkerchief. She had been punished by being forced to kneel in the ancestral hall for many days, and had been looked down upon by the servants.
But Su Yuejian lived in the best courtyard and was given the power to manage the family. Although her mother told her to stay out of the spotlight for the time being, she really couldn't swallow this humiliation.
Today, she heard from her maid that the Regent came to Wutongju to see her, so she dressed up and rushed over. Unfortunately, her face had not fully healed yet, so she had to wear a veil to cover it.
Her eyes were vicious.
She is the young lady of the Taifu Mansion!
She should be the one that everyone is paying attention to!
Instead, Su Yue met a disfigured blind man.
Su Xuewei adjusted her skirt and walked in with a smile on her face.
"Sister, what's so interesting?"
Hearing Amelia Su's voice, the smile on Su Yuejian's face froze and his eyes turned cold in an instant.
Yinxin and Yuzhu looked at the person who came when they heard the voice, and immediately stood apart and saluted her.
When Su Xuewei entered the house and saw the furnishings inside, she was shocked at first, and then her eyes were filled with jealousy.
A rosewood chair with a blue phoenix and peony pattern, a jade-carved screen with a view of lakes and mountains, a rosewood cabinet inlaid with various treasures, a glazed incense burner with a golden seal and neon-red glaze, and a large lotus-leaf-shaped porcelain vase with a pink peony pattern...
Each one was extremely luxurious, some of which she had never even seen before.
Why is that damn old woman so nice to this outsider? These things should obviously belong to her!
Su Xuewei looked around, but there was no sign of the Regent.
Could it be that the maid heard it wrong?
She walked straight up and sat opposite Su Yuejian.
"Sister, what are you talking about so happily? Can you tell me?"
Su Yuejian spoke softly and kindly, as if she had completely forgotten that she had been slandering and cursing Su Yuejian a few days ago.
Su Yue felt sickened by her innocent and harmless behavior, so she simply closed her eyes, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
"What brings you here, sister?"
Su Yuejian was a little impatient.
"Sister, you still blame me for misunderstanding you that day. I was confused for a moment. When I heard that you moved into the new yard, I brought gifts to congratulate you."
She waved her hand.
The maid lowered her head and stepped forward to hand over a painting.
"This is a painting of willows in a spring pond. It's my little sister's doodle. I hope you'll appreciate it and accept it."
Su Xuewei felt a little smug.
Yinxin's face darkened, and Yuzhu became furious when she heard this.
What a gift! What an appreciation!
It is obvious that he is here to insult the young lady for not being able to see.
Su Yue's expression was calm.
"Sister, you are so thoughtful. Yuzhu, keep it well."
Yuzhu stepped forward reluctantly and took the scroll.
"As long as sister likes it."
Su Xuewei noticed that the pastries on the table were the signature dishes of Babaozhai.
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed across his eyes.
"Sister, did you just hear in the courtyard that His Royal Highness the Regent has arrived?"
Su Yuejian sneered.
So that's why. No wonder she dressed up so extravagantly before her face even healed.
"Is this a pastry from Babaozhai? Did the prince buy it for my sister?"
Su Xuewei said with envy.
"So my sister came here specifically to see the Regent. Unfortunately, the Prince has already left."
Su Xuewei blushed shyly, "Sister, what are you talking about? The prince and I are not familiar with each other, so why would you say that on purpose?"
If she were to marry, she should marry the most noble prince, as only the status of Crown Princess would be worthy of her.
"Oh? I thought..."
"Sister, a girl's reputation is so important. I dare not have any delusions."
Don't dare to dream? Hearing this, Su Yuejian felt contempt.
"Sister, your Wutong Residence is truly elegant. Look at the furnishings inside. It's incredibly luxurious. My sister's Yingxue Pavilion can't even compare. Now that you're in charge of the household, unlike me, my father and brother have been so cold to me lately. I wish I could be as loved by grandmother as you are."
Su Xuewei cried in grievance, looking so pitiful.
Su Yuejian rolled her eyes inwardly.
It's the delicate posture of a little white flower again.
Not salty, not bland.
"Grandmother has always been kind to the younger generation. If others heard what I said, they might think that Grandmother was being harsh on you. If it got to Father's ears, you'd be punished again."
Su Xuewei was choked and speechless
On the surface, these words sounded like advice or warning, but to Su Xuewei's ears, they were full of sarcasm.
If she had said this before, Su Yuejian would have taken pity on her and given her the good things her grandmother had given her.
I don’t know what’s wrong with her since she woke up from the fire. She’s like a completely different person.
"My sister's facial injury hasn't healed yet. She's very sensitive to spring pollen, so she should stay out of the house. If you have nothing to do, you can go and keep Aunt company to prevent her from getting bored during her confinement at the dean's."
Su Yuejian didn't want to waste any more words with her and ordered her to leave.
Her face and her mother's house arrest were all thanks to her!
Su Xuewei was furious, but she had no idea what kind of love potion this bitch had given to her grandmother, father and brother, making them all side with her, and she couldn't break off with her.
He was full of anger and looked unhappy. He angrily left Wutongju with a wave of his sleeves.
