This sentence was returned to Mo Qinghe exactly as it was. Since Su Yanhua shouldn't be angry because of a servant, then Mo Qinghe shouldn't be angry either. As for being pressed to the ground by several maids, Su Yanhua really didn't mean it.

"Princess, let me remind you again, your maid can't beat me, let alone you." Su Yanhua said angrily, "I'm just a fool who knows how to wield a sword. Princess, you are so precious. If I accidentally hurt her, you can't blame me."

"After all, it was the princess who started it—"

A smile appeared on Su Yanhua's cold face. At this moment, her delicate face was as eye-catching as the breeze and bright moon.

All the noble ladies in Lingcheng said that Su Yanhua was a fool who couldn't even embroider, but she danced with swords and guns like a man every day. In her previous life, she would be sad about these words, but today, Su Yanhua had to sigh that when others wanted to kill her, but found that they couldn't beat her, it felt really good!

"You're rebelling! You're all rebelling!" Mo Qinghe pointed at the maids, then at Su Yanhua. Her hair was loose, and her delicate makeup was now smudged. She looked ferocious and fierce.

Su Yanhua dared to say that if Mo Qinghe went out in this state at night, people who didn't know would think he was having a mental breakdown.

"Su Yanhua, just wait for this princess." Mo Qinghe couldn't fight back, so she could only grit her teeth and swear: "In a few days, I will not let you go in the palace."

After saying this, Mo Qinghe wanted to turn around and leave, but he was so angry that he accidentally sprained his ankle. The maid behind him came forward to support him. Mo Qinghe was shocked to find that this maid was the one who sat on his face. His face immediately became even more uglier. He waved the maid's hand away, picked up his skirt and strode away.

Only a few maids were left following behind with embarrassed looks on their faces.

Su Yanhua suppressed her laughter and then remembered that there were two other people next to her.

"Sister, let's quickly take Xu to change clothes. After all..." Su Yanhua pretended to cover her nose and said, "This smell is really bad."

Su Ruoxi held back Xu who was about to rush forward, and said with a forced smile, "I understand, sister."

Su Yanhua returned to her yard and hurried to Aunt Ling. Cui'er was applying medicine to Aunt Ling.

Aunt Ling's back was covered with scars of all sizes, and each scar was soaked with blood. The bright red color made Su Yanhua's face turn cold.

The method used to teach Xu a lesson was still too mild.

"What did the doctor say?"

Cui'er replied, "The doctor said my injury wasn't serious, but Aunt Ling is old, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to recover."

Su Yanhua took the ointment and said, "Go and tell the doctor to get the best prescription and the best medicine."

Cui'er nodded and ran out.

Aunt Ling, who was lying on the bed, looked haggard and said, "No need, Miss, I'm fine."

"I'm sorry, Aunt Ling. If I had come a little earlier, you wouldn't have been beaten so badly." Su Yanhua said apologetically.

"Miss, this is none of your business. Xu has already made preparations." Aunt Ling said slowly: "She wants to get rid of me!"

Su Yanhua paused while applying the medicine. She raised her eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Why?"

Aunt Ling said, "Ever since the young lady left, Xu has been wanting to see the old lady, but she refused. Every day, Xu would kneel at her door for hours. After a few days, she relented and let Xu in. Since then, their relationship has gotten better and better. Now, the old lady lets Xu handle all the big and small matters in the mansion. She can be said to have absolute control over everything."

"I followed the old lady. That year, I was wrongly accused of stealing. I desperately begged for mercy, but the old lady still sold me out to save face." Aunt Ling said this with a disappointed tone: "I don't blame the old lady. She was not favored at that time. If someone caught her, it would only make her life more difficult in the future."

Aunt Ling wiped her tears and began to speak with a certain suspicion: "I know the old lady. I know that she is a person who values ​​face and life. If the old lady still suspects that Xu Shi harmed her, she will never forgive Xu Shi, let alone improve their relationship."

"so you……"

"That day when Mrs. Xu entered the palace, I went to the old lady's courtyard. There were people watching outside, and I was very confused as to why someone was sent to guard the courtyard even though Mrs. Xu had left. I sneaked in while they were having dinner." Aunt Ling said slowly, "I saw the old lady. She was sitting on the bed, like an idiot. She called my name, hugged me, and cried, saying she was sorry. The next moment, her face turned cold again and she told me to leave, her tone calm and composed."

"I wondered if something had happened to the old lady, but except for that day, she was as normal as ever, as if everything I saw that day was fake." Aunt Ling changed the subject: "I don't know when Xu Shi targeted me. She seemed to know what I had discovered and wanted to find evidence to get rid of me. She deliberately spread the news that the old lady fell ill after eating water chestnut powder, and that I was the only one making water chestnut cakes these days. She was supervising me these days just to catch me on the spot."

"Since you know that she wants to find fault with you, why do you still want to make water chestnut cake today?" Su Yanhua asked anxiously.

"Because, Miss, you like to eat it." Aunt Ling turned her head and looked at her lovingly.

Su Yanhua was stunned and stood there stupidly, unable to speak.

"Miss, your favorite cakes are Madam's apricot blossom cake and the water chestnut cake I made. Do you still remember?" Aunt Ling fell into memories of the past: "When you were a child, you said that only when you were in a bad mood would you be happy by eating cakes."

A surge of sourness surged to Su Yanhua's nose, and she bit her lips and tried her best to endure it.

"Last time, Cui'er said you wouldn't eat the apricot blossom cake she made, saying the apricot blossoms were bitter, and the heart was bitter, and eating the cake would make it even more bitter, so it would be better not to eat it. Fortunately, I came and you are still willing to eat the water chestnut cake I made."

Aunt Ling's eyes were soaked with tears. "I don't know why, but this time when I saw you, I felt your heart was even colder, as if you had lost all your warmth and affection. I saw this and felt bad too. My role is to make you your favorite water chestnut cake and make you happy."

Su Yanhua could no longer bear it, and two lines of tears immediately fell to the ground. The sourness in her mouth instantly surged into her heart, corroding her entire heart.

She lay on the edge of the bed, looked at Aunt Ling with emotion and said, "Aunt Ling, as long as you and Cui'er can stay by my side, I will be very happy."

"Even if I don't eat this cake, seeing you makes me feel at peace."

Thanks to their existence, her heart still has some warmth.

Aunt Ling lovingly touched Su Yanhua's hair accessories. They were simple, without any jewels or gems. She seemed to feel the truest desire in Su Yanhua's heart.

"Madam passed away too early. She didn't get to see the young lady grow up to be such a graceful and elegant lady." Aunt Ling said, "The young lady will never be bullied again."

Su Yanhua held Aunt Ling's hand tightly, passing warmth to each other.
