Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves
Chapter 13 Rumors are flying everywhere
Lin was born in the general's mansion and was loved dearly by her father and brother.
In life, she was overprotected, so she didn't know how evil people are.
On the streets of the capital, a young man who is willing to lend her an umbrella and go home in the rain can capture her heart.
For him, she married into the Su family without hesitation despite her family's opposition.
Unexpectedly, before she could gain a firm foothold in the Su Mansion, her father and brother were impeached and the emperor banished them to other places. From then on, her life changed drastically.
That man vowed to protect her from all the wind and rain, but he didn't know that all the storms in her life were brought by him.
After a long silence, Lin spoke: "It's the old lady's birthday, and something like this happened in the Su Mansion. Your father must be very upset, and the old lady doesn't know..."
"Mother..." Su Manman interrupted her, "Just take good care of yourself and don't worry about anything else."
"But……"
Lin was still worried, "Madam Liu is your father's favorite, he won't sit idly by. What if he takes action against you..."
"I have everything!"
The next day, news about what happened at the birthday party of Old Lady Qian in the Su Mansion spread like wildfire.
"Lin was poisoned. It must have been done by Concubine Liu. A concubine would do anything to gain power."
"I heard that Concubine Liu is Mr. Su's childhood sweetheart, and they are truly in love."
"Tsk, if there is true love between them, why isn't she the mistress of the Su Mansion?"
Someone dug up all the past events, "Twenty years ago, when Lord Su first arrived in the capital, he was a poor scholar with no connections. If he hadn't had the support of his father-in-law, General Lin, how could he have achieved such a promising future?"
"A man who relied on his wife to rise to power dares to team up with concubines to abuse his mistress. His moral character is lacking."
"How could such a person sit in the position of Minister of Rites? Tsk!"
"What a pair of bastards! It's a pity that the daughter of the Lin family couldn't judge people well and ended up like this."
As the discussion reached this point, someone else sighed, "Liu Yiang's daughter, Su Jiaojiao, is beautiful and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I heard that the Su family has spent a lot of money over the years to hire famous teachers for her."
"The Su family is a poor family, how could they have any money? They are using Lin's dowry money."
"Poor Lin's biological daughter, she was sent away to be educated in another place. She prayed in the temple for six years, but I don't know what she has become."
"Yes. Even the eldest son was sent to the border to join the army, and his life or death is unknown."
"Lord Su is truly cruel. Even tigers and wolves won't eat their own cubs."
"Alas! Miss Su, your father doesn't love you, your mother is seriously ill, your brother is away, your aunt is eyeing you covetously, and you have no one to rely on in the capital. This child has a miserable life."
"She originally had a good family background, but with the Su family's reputation, how could she find a good marriage partner..."
The rumors grew more and more intense, and finally turned into a long-planned melodrama.
Su Tinggui already had a childhood sweetheart. In order to have a better life, he deliberately got close to the eldest daughter of the Lin family, won her sympathy, deceived her heart, and married her.
After gaining fame and fortune by relying on General Lin's Mansion, he took advantage of the Lin Mansion's decline to marry his beloved back home.
In order to embezzle Lin's dowry, the two men deliberately poisoned her, causing her to be bedridden for many years.
As for why they didn't just poison him to death...
The two men were very careful and worried that if someone died, it would cause criticism from others, and if they really investigated, the truth would be revealed.
So, the two planned to poison the person slowly.
Who knows that there is an arrangement in the dark.
The eldest girl hurried back home and asked the young master of Huichuntang to diagnose her mother.
Mr. Wu was a skilled doctor and diagnosed that Lin was poisoned immediately.
Coincidentally, Lord Cao, the Minister of Dali Temple, attended the banquet and immediately investigated the case and brought all the people back to the Dali Temple for interrogation.
It is really the will of heaven that has its own way. No one can escape it.
Should!
These scumbag men and women deserve to die.
These rumors spread throughout the streets and alleys and reached the Su Mansion one by one.
Su Tinggui was so angry that he stayed in his study that day and smashed teacups all day.
The next day in the court, he also tried to lower his head and reduce his presence.
After leaving court, he walked along the wall with his head down. He always felt that his colleagues were glancing at him, and he thought that the faint whispers from others were talking about him.
His face was flushed and he hurried out of the palace and got on the Su Mansion's carriage, urging everyone to return home quickly.
The old lady also felt ashamed and rejected invitations from several mansions. She lay on the bed, groaning.
I feel sick to my stomach and don't want to eat.
My chest also feels uncomfortable and there is always a sharp pain.
My whole body aches and I don't want to move.
Even the celadon vase that I had to wipe by hand every day was too lazy to be wiped.
This 60th birthday was such an unlucky one.
In Nishang Courtyard, Su Jiaojiao's life was not easy either.
A month before her grandmother's birthday, she was reborn.
At first, she couldn't believe what was happening.
As she gradually adapted, she felt that God had mercy on her and gave her a chance to start over.
As long as she seizes everything this time, she will definitely be able to change her destiny and become the queen of Daqian Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, what happened at the birthday party dealt her a heavy blow.
She heard the rumors outside and felt anxious.
In her previous life, she simply misjudged Ye Mo and married him by mistake. One wrong move led to a complete failure.
But in this life, the situation before us is even more serious than in the previous life.
Why did public opinion change, why was Concubine Liu sent to prison, and why did the soft persimmon in the previous life suddenly stand up.
Why did her father and grandmother's attitude towards her change?
There were so many changes that whenever Su Jiaojiao closed her eyes, she would dream of the scene before her death in her previous life.
She couldn't sleep at night and had nightmares one after another. In just one night, the areas under her eyes turned purple, and she looked wilted and her eyes had lost their luster.
There is peace in Cuixiang Courtyard.
Su Manman had two lounge chairs placed under the eaves, and she and her mother lay on them, basking in the sun, drinking osmanthus tea, and chatting.
Lin had never left the capital since she was a child, and the only time she moved around was to attend banquets in various mansions in the capital.
Su Manman is different. She has been wandering outside for six years.
On the long journey of thousands of miles from the capital to Jiangyang, he told Lin about the scenery and rare things he encountered along the way, which made Lin envious.
She loved listening to her stories.
It was as if she had followed in her daughter's footsteps and visited those wonderful places.
As the two of them were chatting happily, Tao Hong came hurriedly from the door and ran up to them, "Miss, that Master Wu has sent someone."
"Oh?" Su Manman stood up. "What's the matter?"
Could it be that Wu Xiaowen took the Flame Linghua back and couldn't wait to refine it, and it ended up exploding?
It shouldn't be.
Judging from his behavior that day, he should be a steady person.
As they were talking, a man dressed as a guard led a few people carrying a large box into the gate of Cuixiang Courtyard.
"Miss Su," Zhuifeng called out, "I was asked by Master Wu to bring these things."
He turned around and ordered the servants to open the lid of the box, which contained many brocade boxes.
The servants opened the brocade boxes one by one and introduced: "A hundred-year-old ginseng."
"A hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum"
A pack of fresh deer antler slices
"A large bag of donkey-hide gelatin tablets"
"..."
A whole box of various good medicinal herbs was prepared.
Su Manman's heart trembled.
These herbs are indispensable whether it is for my mother's detoxification and conditioning, or for the soups and medicines she drinks every day to nourish her body.
She hurried back to the capital, traveling light, and wanted to settle down before going out to the streets to look for pharmacies one by one.
Coincidentally, he was thoughtful enough to prepare them all.
Su Manman casually closed the lid of the box and said, "Master Wu treated my mother. How can I accept his gift in return?"
Having said that, she didn't take her hand away from the box.
