Su Xuewei took advantage of today's incident to hint at many of Su Yuejian's evil deeds in front of Wu's mother and daughter.

Seeing the resentment and hatred between the mother and daughter towards Su Yuejian, he returned to Yingxue Pavilion with peace of mind.

After she removed her makeup and washed up, she sat in front of the mirror and looked at the scars on her face left over from the last poisoning. She suddenly became furious.

It was all because of that bitch Su Yuejian that I became like this!

I don’t know how she managed to get hold of the big fish, the eldest princess. Today, in front of so many people, she was completely humiliated!

Su Xuewei's eyes were full of venom, then her brows relaxed and a wicked smile appeared on her lips.

She knew that from now on, she and her aunt would not have to take action personally in the mansion, and the Wu mother and daughter would find ways to cause trouble for Su Yuejian, and she felt a lot more relieved.

He picked up a white porcelain box at hand and began to apply the cream carefully.

This is the ointment that Qiao specially prepared for her to detoxify and nourish her skin. It is very effective.

Her face was previously swollen and red with pus, but in just a few days, it had mostly recovered, and her skin was much smoother than before.

After applying it, she looked at her beautiful facial features in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.

I should tell my aunt tomorrow that the ointment is almost used up and ask her to get more for her.

At night, I live in Wutong House.

Yuzhu helps Su Yuejian with her makeup and hair.

Yinxin reported from the side.

On the way to Zuixianlou today, she used the excuse of asking Yinxin to go out shopping and asked her to go to the south of the city to follow Qiao.

"Today, I followed the Qiao family. They first went to the Taoist temple in the southern suburbs of the city to worship and burn incense. On the way back, for some reason, they went their separate ways. Wu went back home first."

"Qiao secretly changed her clothes and got off the carriage. She went to Xue's Pawnshop in the south of the city and didn't come out until over an hour later."

Su Yuejian looked deep and thoughtful. It was the pawnshop in the south of the city again.

It seems that there must be something fishy going on with this pawnshop. We need to investigate it thoroughly.

next day

Su Yuejian came to Rong'an Hall as usual to have breakfast with the old lady.

Su Yanzhou had a rare moment of free time today, and as he hadn't come to pay his respects to his grandmother for some time, he came specially to have dinner with them.

After the three of them finished their meal together, they sat in the main hall drinking tea and chatting, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were having a great time.

At this time, a servant came to report that Wu's mother and daughter came to pay their respects to the old lady.

The smile on the old lady's face disappeared instantly. She looked a little unhappy and nodded slightly to let them in.

Mrs. Wu walked in with Su Xiaoshi and Su Caner, and the three of them bowed their heads and half-knelt to salute.

The old lady looked at the people in the hall with a cold expression.

"Get up."

Wu stood up and took a quick look. She saw Su Yuejian was also there, along with a handsome man. He looked somewhat like Su's father, so she thought it must be Su Yanzhou.

Su Yuejian and Su Yanzhou stood up and bowed to her.

She smiled and said, "Oh, you can't do that."

"This is Brother Yan Zhou, right? He's just as handsome as big brother was back then!"

Su Yanzhou's expression remained normal, cold and distant.

He had long known that this woman had evil intentions and wanted to use him to find a shortcut for Su Tianjie.

Yesterday, she heard about the incident at Jinxiufang and knew that her daughter had spoken disrespectfully to Yue'er, so she was even less pleased.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Mrs. Wu felt frustrated and embarrassed.

Turning to Su Yuejian and the old lady, he smiled and said,

"Yesterday, Shi'er and Can'er spoke nonsense and offended Yue'er. I have already reprimanded them severely. Today, I brought them here to apologize to Yue'er. We are all family sisters. Yue'er, please be magnanimous and forgive them."

After saying that, Wu winked at Su Xiaoshi and Su Caner.

Su Xiaoshi was wearing a veil. She was slapped many times yesterday. The swelling has not gone down yet, and she can't even touch anything. It hurts to open her mouth to eat.

She had been spoiled by Su Shiming and Wu since she was a child, and had never suffered such grievances. Now she had to bow her head and admit her mistakes to this adopted daughter, and she was even more angry and resentful in her heart.

She held the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, lowered her eyes to hide the unwillingness in her eyes, walked up to Su Yuejian, and said softly,

"Sister Yue, I was wrong yesterday. I will never say anything nonsense again. Please forgive me."

Su Caner also stepped forward to bow and apologize to Su Yuejian.

Su Yuejian sat quietly in her seat, not saying a word.

Su Yanzhou, standing aside, spoke up and said coldly, "Apology is secondary. What's most important is to be sincere and sincere."

When Wu met Su Yanzhou for the first time, she saw that he looked like a gentle scholar, but she never expected that his words would bring such pressure, and her palms could not help but sweat.

He was saying that the mother and daughter were hypocritical, and that they apologized verbally but were still dissatisfied in their hearts.

It seems that Su Yanzhou is not as easy to talk to as Su Lin.

Wu could only smile and say, "Yes, yes, that's natural."

She also hoped to use the Taifu Mansion to help Shi'er and Jie'er earn a good future, so she could only keep smiling and trying to please them.

Although Su Yuejian was not a magnanimous person, the eldest princess had already taught Su Xiaoshi a lesson about this matter, and she remembered that Su Caner had not said anything out of line that day. If she kept holding on to it, she would easily get a reputation for being domineering.

He said lightly, "I didn't take yesterday's incident to heart. Cousin and cousin, please get up quickly."

Seeing her like this, the old lady couldn't help but feel that she was so sensible that it made her feel distressed.

He said sternly to the Wu mother and daughter, "If this happens again, it won't be resolved with just an apology!"

Wu nodded repeatedly, but seeing the old lady's unhappy expression, she didn't dare to stay.

After asking how they were, he took Su Xiaoshi and Su Caner back to the yard.

After the three of them left, Su Yuejian talked to the old lady about the birthday banquet, and everything had been arranged.

However, the Su family had not held a grand banquet for many years, and there would surely be many distinguished guests coming this time, so they suggested taking inventory and cleaning the storehouse before the birthday banquet to prevent the gifts from the guests from being difficult to organize.

Seeing that she was doing things in an orderly manner, the old lady nodded with satisfaction.

It was getting late, and Su Yanzhou was going out, so he sent Su Yuejian back to Wutongju.

The two walked slowly along the corridor.

Seeing that there was no one around, only Yuzhu followed him.

Su Yuejian asked, "Brother, do you know that it was Princess Jing'an who stood up for me yesterday, and it was also the Princess who helped me at Dajue Temple before."

Su Yanzhou nodded, "I already know. Princess Jing'an is very sensible and reasonable. You should express your gratitude sincerely."

Su Yuejian remembered that her brother had never married in his previous life. The eldest princess was cheerful and kind. If the two of them were interested in each other, she naturally hoped that the lovers could get married.

"Princess Jing'an has helped me many times because of my brother."

Su Yuejian stopped and carefully observed his expression through the veil, "Brother, what do you think of Princess Jing'an?"
