Although she was the legitimate granddaughter, Su Muya never felt grateful for her birth. Her appearance had stolen the affection that was rightfully hers, and taken away her uncle's love for her.
Su Muya didn't care about this wealth and status at all; she only hoped to get rid of this dark and ugly family.
The rest of the eldest branch of the family had already gathered. The eldest aunt's husband, Chen, was a gentle and kind woman; the second branch's sister-in-law, Lin, was a formidable and assertive woman.
Only the third concubine, Wang, the fourth concubine, Zhang, and the sixth concubine, Yang, remain in the third branch of the family.
My uncle is an honest and loyal man. Unless it's for necessary social engagements or holidays, he stays in his own yard and doesn't go out.
Su Jinxuan, the illegitimate son of the third wife, is now ten years old.
Su Jinyu, the illegitimate son of the fifth wife, is only three and a half years old.
Su Jinze, the illegitimate son of the sixth wife, was born out of wedlock and was rather timid and cowardly; Su Jinyan, the illegitimate son of the seventh wife, was only three years old. Su Jinyan was Su Muya's biological brother and the eldest son born out of wedlock, so he received relatively better treatment.
"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" The eldest grandmother asked in surprise, looking at the unconscious Su Muya.
Su Muya cried, "My brother went out for a stroll last night and was killed by villains."
Everyone showed expressions of anger.
"Who did this?"
The murderer must be severely punished!
Su Muya shook her head. "The murderer has already escaped. There's no point in saying anything now."
Su Muya stood up crying, looking at Grandpa Su and Grandma Su, "Father, Mother, my brother died so tragically, please avenge him."
Madam Su was heartbroken and tears streamed down her face.
"Muya, don't be afraid, your father and grandfather are here." Old Master Su was heartbroken. His most beloved grandson, Su Jinxuan, had died outside, his body never found.
Madam Su wiped away her tears and said in a trembling voice, "Don't worry, Muya, no matter who those beasts are, I will never forgive them."
She turned and instructed her maids and nannies: "Quickly go and invite the clan leader and all the relatives over to discuss the funeral arrangements."
When Madam Su spoke of funeral arrangements, she didn't mean to hold a funeral, clearly indicating that she had no intention of leaving Su Jinnan's body to rot in the wilderness.
The clan chief arrived, along with his eldest uncle, eldest aunt, fifth brother Su Bowen, sixth brother Su Jinze, Su Jinyu, and third sister Su Jinlan.
The eldest uncle said, "Father, this matter must be thoroughly investigated, the murderer must be found, and he must be severely punished."
The Su family is a scholarly family with strict rules and strict family regulations. Su Jinxuan has always been in poor health. He is the only direct male heir of the Su family and the future heir.
Old Master Su sighed and said, "Alas! Our Su family's century-old reputation has been ruined in an instant. Muya, you must hold on and not lose heart. Even if you don't seek revenge, you must ensure your safety."
Su Muya nodded and said, "I understand. I will not let Father and Grandfather down. I will pull myself together, live well, and avenge my brother."
Madam Su wiped away her tears and said, "Eldest brother, you take Muya home first, and the rest of you stay here to handle the aftermath."
Su Jinyu and Su Jinyu were both born out of wedlock and were usually suppressed and ostracized by their elder brothers and the second son of the legitimate wife. Even the names of the illegitimate sons were chosen arbitrarily. They were not qualified to participate in the memorial ceremony, let alone attend the funeral; they could only shed tears silently.
The First Madam and Su Muya helped the Old Madam leave.
"Mother, is my brother's revenge really just going to be left like this?"
"No, don't worry."
The old lady's sharp eyes swept over the crowd, and she said calmly, "You're all tired, so you may all leave."
The First Madam and the Second Madam exchanged a smile.
The First Madam and the Second Madam left with their maids and servants.
The main house of the Su family is the east wing of the main courtyard, near the hanging flower gate, and is the master bedroom.
Su Muya cried and made a fuss until the early hours of the morning before finally stopping and lying down to rest. Su Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Muya was finally willing to rest.
"Muya, get some rest and don't overthink things."
"Yes. Thank you, Dad."
She closed her eyes, a faint smile appearing on her lips. This body was so delicate; she felt tired after crying for just a short while.
As Su Muya cried, she thought, "My life is a tragedy, and I'm destined to never turn things around."
She thought back to her past life, to the family she had married into, surnamed Zhao. The Zhao family was a scholarly family, their ancestors having passed the imperial examinations, and they were quite wealthy. Although Zhao married into the Su family as a second wife, she was deeply loved by her in-laws, who practically spoiled her rotten. Unfortunately, Zhao was no pushover. Relying on her mother-in-law's affection, she acted arrogantly and domineeringly in the Su family, practically a wicked woman. And to make matters worse, Zhao was a cursed woman destined to bring misfortune to her husbands. The Su family was initially happy to marry Su Jinyu, but she failed to conceive. Zhao used this as an excuse, and under the persuasion of the Su matriarch and her mother, she restrained her temper, but in private, she remained cruel and ruthless towards Su Jinyu.
Since the first wife had no children, it was only natural for her to take concubines and have them bear children. However, she refused to allow the concubines to have children. To avoid offending her, Su Jinyu not only took four concubines, but they also bore him two sons. Zhao was so angry she almost fainted.
"But this is good too, at least he has a woman who can stay by his side."
When Su Muya was in modern times, she had the opportunity to watch the period film "The Dream of Red Mansions". In the film, there was a man named Jia Baoyu who married Lin Daiyu. The two were very loving and lived to a ripe old age together.
"My journey to ancient times this time is perhaps a matter of fate. If I don't seize the time to change my tragic destiny, I'm afraid I'll also follow the trajectory of history. I must never be as tragic as I was in my previous life!"
"I must not let any more efforts fail to bring me freedom! I must change this tragic ending and free the Su family from this misfortune!"
……
The night was hazy, and the bright moonlight shone through the window paper onto Su Muya's face.
She slowly opened her eyes, her gaze resolute.
She glanced down at her arm; this body was indeed frail. She remembered Su Jinyu being thirty years old, so how could this body look even younger than her? She was only 19. Could it be that the soul of this body had possessed her?
Su Muya frowned. This feeling was strange; she had never felt so weak before.
Su Muya rubbed her temples and asked Xiao Tao, "How many days have I been unconscious?"
"Girl, you've been unconscious for three whole days."
Su Muya was startled. How could she have slept for three days? Was it because she was too heartbroken?
"Miss, are you hungry? I'll have the kitchen cook some porridge right away. Miss, what kind of porridge would you like? I'll tell the kitchen."
Su Muya shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat." She had no appetite at all.
Su Jinyu pushed open the door and walked in. He closed the door and gently sat down on the stool next to Su Muya. "Muya, how can your body withstand this if you don't eat? Once you recover, you'll have plenty of time to take care of your father and mother."
