Su Yuejian was awakened by the noise outside early in the morning.

"The lady said that you don't need to serve her closely, how could you not listen?" Yuzhu said.

"Impossible! You two must be jealous of me and are making up stories about me in front of the young lady!" Lian Qiao said angrily.

...

"Yuzhu." Su Yuejian sat up.

Yuzhu pushed open the door, Yinxin came in with a basin of water, and Yuzhu went forward to hang up the gauze curtain.

"What are you arguing about?" Su Yuejian rubbed her eyes. She was not yet accustomed to the glaring sunlight after regaining her sight.

"Miss, those two bullied me and said you were going to send me to the outer courtyard." Lian Qiao ran in and said.

Su Yuejian sneered, "It's my words. From today on, you don't have to serve me closely."

"Miss, I don't know what I have done wrong. Madam has always asked me to take good care of you, and I have never slacked off..." Lian Qiao cried, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Su Yuejian was in no mood to get involved with her any more. Lian Qiao was still useful, but she was afraid that if she kept him around every day, the hatred in her heart would be exposed sooner or later.

"It seems that you have forgotten what I said to you yesterday. Remember your identity and go away!" Su Yuejian said angrily.

Lian Qiao suddenly fell silent and ran out unwillingly.

You blind bastard, isn't it just that you have a good life? Why can you become a lady when we are all orphans? One day I will step on you.

"The young lady should have been like this a long time ago. Lian Qiao is becoming more and more unruly now. Looking at her daily attire, people who don't know her would think she is a young lady!" Yin Xin said.

"That's right, and Lian Qiao always takes the side of Aunt Qiao and the Second Young Miss. Although she always says it's for the young lady's good, it really feels awkward to hear." Yuzhu followed.

Su Yuejian smiled helplessly. Even they could see it. No wonder God made her blind in her previous life. Her eyes were really useless.

Just after I finished washing and cleaning up, I heard Su Xuewei's voice coming from outside.

"Sister, you're awake now. I'm here to see you."

Su Xuewei was wearing a peach pink smoke-feather gauze long dress today, her hair was tied up in a fairy bun, dotted with a few pearls and jade, her skin was porcelain white, her eyebrows were delicate, and her posture was slender, like a pure daffodil.

Who could have imagined that such a vicious mind was hidden behind such an innocent appearance?

"I heard that my sister was frightened a few days ago, so I came to see you specially." Su Xuewei walked in and sat in the main seat on the couch.

Su Yuejian's eyes were filled with resentment. She stared at her as she walked in. She clenched her fists and dug her nails into the flesh of her palms. The pain in her palms slightly restrained her impulse. She quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be kind.

"I'm fine now. I don't know why the water suddenly broke out. Luckily, Yuzhu saved me. I'm sorry to have caused my sister to worry."

Su Xuewei smiled and said, "That's good. Yesterday, Lian Qiao said that her powder had been spilled. So today, mother immediately prepared some for you and asked me to bring it to you."

Su Yuejian said calmly: "Thank my aunt for me."

Hearing the word "aunt", Su Xuewei's smile froze on her face. She could have been a legitimate daughter, but now she was only a concubine's daughter and was inferior to this bastard.

Qiao Wanyun has been in charge of the family for many years, and Su's father has never remarried. There is only this one concubine in the mansion. Everyone tacitly accepts Qiao Wanyun as the mistress, and gradually, the servants privately call her Madam in a flattering manner.

"What are you saying, sister? Mother treats you very well. Even I, her biological daughter, envy you. Why are you calling her aunt and humiliating her now? I don't know what happened yesterday, but father suddenly took away mother's housekeeping power. Mother was sad for a long time. Sister, grandmother has always loved you. Please go and talk to grandmother and plead for mother." Su Xuewei said very aggrievedly.

"Sister, you misunderstood. This is what father meant. Even when father got angry, I didn't dare to refute him. Besides, my aunt is usually very busy with housekeeping, so now she can have some free time." Su Yuejian said pretending to be timid.

What's wrong with this blind woman today? She keeps calling me "Auntie". In the past, she always agreed to whatever I said.

Su Xuewei didn't know how to respond for a moment. A flash of resentment flashed across her eyes, and she asked, "I heard that my sister went out yesterday?"

Su Yue saw two people walking into the courtyard from the corner of her eye, and immediately pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Yes, I know I shouldn't go out. Going out like this will only bring shame to the Su family. My sister and aunt have repeatedly warned me before, and I remember it all."

Seeing her timid and cowardly look, Su Xuewei said proudly: "It's good that you know, mother is doing this for your own good. Your father and brother can't tell you about your appearance. Sister, you are an adopted daughter, you should be sensible."

Su Yuejian lowered her head, pretending to be timid, but the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

"What are you talking about!" Su's father walked in angrily, and Su Yanzhou followed closely behind him.

Last night while having dinner, I saw the scar on Su Yuejian's left wrist. I remembered that when she was young, she cut her wrist and bled for days to save her mother. I felt particularly distressed, so I came to see her early in the morning. I didn't expect to hear these words.

Su Xuewei was shocked. Su Yuejian was not close to the Su family on weekdays, so why did his father and brother suddenly come to see this blind man today?

Amelia Su quickly stood up, looking aggrieved and innocent: "Dad, brother, why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, I'd probably not have heard how you and Aunt Qiao instigated Yue'er!"

Su Yanzhou said unhappily.

When Yue'er was a child, she was lively and always around him every day. Why did she suddenly become distant from him later? It turned out that it was the work of the mother and her.

"Brother, you misunderstood, I meant sister..."

"Don't say anything!" Father Su shouted, "Oh! You and Mrs. Qiao are acting like my bosses. When did I ever say anything about Yue'er's appearance? Yue'er is the eldest daughter of the family. She can do whatever she wants. From today on, Mrs. Qiao will be fined for three months' salary. And you, you will have to copy the family rules fifty times and be confined to your house to reflect on your mistakes! I don't think anyone will dare to mention the matter of adopting a daughter again!"

"Daddy..." Su Xuewei wanted to act pitiful and cry again.

"Go back to your own yard!"

Father Su really didn't want to see her again.

Su Lin is a decent person and hates two-faced people the most. He never expected that his usually well-behaved daughter would behave like this in private. It really disappointed him.

Su Xuewei retreated reluctantly, feeling aggrieved.

Father Su turned around and comforted him, "Yue'er, don't listen to those nonsense. Daddy never cares about it. If anyone dares to say anything bad about you in the future, just tell Daddy directly and I will take care of it for you."

Su Yanzhou also nodded in agreement.

Su Yuejian's eyes turned red and she nodded.

Father Su gave some instructions on some trivial matters and then went out on official business.

Su Yanzhou, on the other hand, stayed, took out a letter and handed it to Yuzhu.

"He Qianzhi sent someone to deliver a letter. I happened to see it, so I brought it to you," Su Yanzhou said, taking a sip of tea.

After a pause, he continued, "Do you really like He Qianzhi?"

Su Yuejian could hear his hesitation and said, "Brother, I don't like him anymore. If he sends me letters next time, just return them."

Su Yanzhou frowned in surprise: "Really?"

She had clearly been sending messages to him quite frequently recently, asking him to give more advice to He Yanzhi at the Imperial College."

Su Yuejian said, "Seriously, I didn't know how to judge people before, but now I've come to my senses and I really don't like him. I won't have any contact with him anymore."

Su Yanzhou let out a long sigh and said, "That's good. My father and I have both met this man. Although he appears to be humble, he is too kind and is not really a good person."

Su Yuejian nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother."

He Qianzhi was a poor scholar, and the Su family was dissatisfied with him. In her previous life, Qiao and Su Xuewei told her that Su's father despised him for being poor and was planning to use her marriage to form an alliance with the powerful. She was not close to the Su family and believed it without a doubt. She even regarded the advice of her father, brother and grandmother as an obstacle to her love.

But not this time.

Seeing that her face was determined and she didn't show any sadness at all, Su Yanzhou felt relieved and left.

After Su Yanzhou left, Su Yuejian asked Yuzhu to burn this letter and all the letters he had sent before.

He then wrote a letter of breakup, put it in a red envelope, and asked his servant to deliver it to He Qianzhi, telling him not to send him any more letters in the future.
