After the rebirth of the wronged soft girl, the devil's crematorium
Chapter 78 Discovery
Master Su nodded, his tone becoming graver, "Tell me immediately if you have any news. Don't hide anything from me."
"I understand." Su Wan walked out the door.
"It's really easy to digest and delicious. Wan'er also likes to eat these. Don't forget to make some for her someday."
"I remember. I remember."
Su Wan stood outside the door, listening to the father and daughter's laughter and conversation, feeling both happy and helpless. She looked up at the green cypress tree, a look of melancholy in her eyes. If Su Si Niang truly cared about her grandfather, she wouldn't have completely broken off relations with her. But, was she?
As the two of them entered the garden gate, they saw Liu Yan coming to report, "Madam, Xie Shousi's secret guards have sent news."
The three of them walked into the house, and Liuyan said, "We went to the Fourth Lady's farm."
"It really is her?" Liu Shang's eyes widened. This aunt was too cruel, colluding with outsiders to bully her own family. However, she had often oppressed her wife before she even got married. Su Wan had married the man Jiang Yun most wanted to marry, and now she had turned the Zheng family upside down. Miss Jiang's hopes were dashed, and this aunt naturally hated her even more.
"It seems that someone wants our Su family to have internal strife."
"You mean this was done by the Jiang family alone?"
Su Wan sat down at the table, picked up a piece of cake, and ate it. "Only my aunt knows whether she's involved. But she wouldn't dare make a big move under the Su family's nose." She looked up at Liu Yan and said, "Send a message to that secret guard, and have him deliver it to my aunt's nose. Also, get the message to the Su family." Su Wan raised her eyelashes, her eyes frosty as she looked out the window. "Of course, I have to send some news to my good aunt, too."
"Yes."
After Su Wan had explained everything, she took Liu Shang to the pharmacy, which was not far from the Su residence. Furthermore, now that they were at the emperor's feet, the Su family was being extra cautious, so those people naturally didn't dare to act rashly.
Su Wan recalled the day the steward had told her that a woman had come to see her. The steward had also learned that the woman was probably from another place and had not had any contact with other aristocratic families since arriving in the capital. This made Su Wan even more curious.
"Miss."
Seeing the boss coming, the clerk of the drug store hurriedly welcomed him into the side hall in the backyard, and Manager Liu reported to Su Wan everything that had happened in the past few days.
"That refugee has been hiding in Shuiyang Lane and refuses to come out. Our people are afraid of alerting him, so we can only wait and see."
"It's okay. There's nothing wrong with making a bigger noise."
"Old slave, I understand."
After dealing with the urgent matter at hand, Su Wan asked again, "Is the woman from that day here?"
Manager Liu: "Yes, she came to look for you twice, but when she saw you were not there, she didn't say anything. She just gave me a way to find her, saying that if my wife came back, I should send someone to find her."
Su Wan raised her eyebrows and laughed, "This guy is quite interesting."
"I've sent people to watch her, intentionally or unintentionally, and discovered that she seems to be doing some small business. She usually sets up a stall where the common people live, but hasn't made any moves. It doesn't look like this was arranged by the enemy."
Su Wan curled her lips and said, "We'll know whether it's true or not once we see her." Her voice was still gentle, "Manager Liu, please have someone find her."
"Would you like to see her in person, ma'am?"
"How can she explain her purpose if she doesn't see me? Just send someone to keep an eye on her and make sure she's not followed."
"Yes, old slave, let's do it now."
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the servant brought the woman to the pharmacy. The door creaked open and the woman walked in. When Su Wan saw the woman's appearance clearly, she frowned suddenly.
"you are?"
The woman was wearing a pink hemp shirt and had a bun on her head.
"After so many days, Madam Su still remembers me? My name is Fang Jinyue. Don't be nervous. I'm here to return something to you." As she said that, she took out a purple porcelain bottle.
This was given to her by her maid on the day when she went to the Zheng family to collect the debt. Su Wan saw that her cheek was injured and was afraid that she would get a scar, so she asked her to do so.
Su Wan's eyes fell on the thing in Fang Jinyue's hand, "You didn't come here just for this, did you?"
Fang Jinyue smiled so much that her eyebrows curved, "This is one of them."
Liu Shang glanced at Su Wan and stepped forward to take it. But Fang Jinyue stepped back and said, "This bottle must be very heavy for you, right?"
Su Wan looked at Fang Jinyue. These were gifts from Uncle Long back in Peach Blossom Valley, and Uncle Long had treated her very well. Since arriving in the capital, she had been relying on these old belongings to remember her family. She had only given them to Fang Jinyue out of desperation.
"Madam Fang, I'm in a hurry, so you might as well speak frankly."
Fang Jinyue pointed at the bottle and said, "There's a chip on it. I asked someone to fix it for you. It cost me three cents. Look..."
Su Wan's eyes changed and she said, "Liu Shang, give me the money."
"Madam Fang, no matter what the reason, you shouldn't take such a risk. This is the capital city. Although it is the emperor's capital, it is also a place where powerful nobles have their roots. You should know your identity and the danger. I have thought about involving you before, and I hope you understand the danger involved." Su Wan had already walked to the door.
Fang Jinyue nodded the three coins in her hand, turned around and said, "Last time, I volunteered to seek justice. Also, this time, I have reasons for coming here. Madam, don't you want to hear them?"
Su Wan turned around and looked at the person in front of her calmly.

Although it was dusk, the weather was still hot and humid. Su Yanshu was hot, and beads of sweat beaded on his forehead when he stepped out of the carriage.
"Master, slow down."
Su Yanshu smiled and said, "Go and take this milk and bayberries to Madam." Madam loved bayberries, and the Imperial Tutor and Su Wan were both big fans of milk. This was a gift from a colleague when he visited his home, and the bayberries were something Su Yanshu had bought on a detour.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
"Wait!" The laughing man turned around and came back to Su Yanshu, only to hear Su Yanshu say, "Don't tell your husband that he bought this." Su Yanshu patted the wine jar in the hand of his long-servant.
The servant smiled and said, "I understand."
"Master." Just then, the steward came to report, "Sixth Son is here to see you."
Liuzi is a secret guard trained by the Su family. As a prominent family, they naturally have to secretly train some people to deal with dangers.
Su Yanshu restrained his smile and said, "Let him come to the study."
"Yes."
In the study, Su Yanshu stood with his hands behind his back. But when the secret guard came to report on the progress of the assassination attempt on Su Wan, he turned around and asked in surprise, "Where did you say the assassin went?"
Su Yanshu frowned, as if thinking about something. That was Si Niang's farm.
"Also, Xiaodie, who is with the Fourth Lady, once went to that farm with medicine."
Su Yan's expression was stern. "What did you say?"
Su Yanshu restrained his expression, pondering the relationship between the two. He knew that Su Si Niang had always looked down on Su Wan. But since her father loved Su Wan, she had only resorted to subtle tactics in secret. Besides, if Si Niang had truly done it, how could she tolerate the assassin's return? Wouldn't that leave her with a serious illness?
"Pay attention to the movements of the Fourth Lady, and the Jiang family."
"Yes."
If it is really Si Niang, then the only one who can help her is the Jiang family.
Two days later, the secret guards came again to report that Su Si Niang had met with Jiang Jia Erlang in a tavern under the pretext of looking after business. Su Yanshu was now embarrassed and angry. If this matter was made public, how would Su Wan and Si Niang get along?
However, just as Su Yanshu was about to have a private conversation with Su Si Niang, an accident happened.
