A transmigrated woman ruined my whole family; I was reborn, seized a spatial ability, and had a full

The sun hung high in the sky, and its scorching rays poured down on the fields without reservation, baking the earth until it was slightly warm.

Su Li was working in her own field, sweat streaming down her face and neck, soaking her clothes.

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from the edge of the field, breaking the tranquility of the field.

Su Li looked up and saw Su Xiangsheng running towards her like a chased rabbit, his face flushed and panting heavily.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Su Xiangsheng ran to the edge of the field, braced himself on his knees, his chest heaving violently, and after a long while he managed to squeeze out, "Sister...sister, someone from that young master's family has arrived!"

Su Li abruptly stopped wiping the hoe in her hand, straightened up, wiped the sweat from her face with her sleeve, and looked anxiously in the direction Su Xiangsheng was pointing.

At the village entrance, several beautifully decorated horse-drawn carriages were slowly entering the village.

The wheels rolled over the potholes in the dirt road, kicking up clouds of dust.

The carriage came to a smooth stop, and a middle-aged man dressed in a dark-patterned brocade robe stepped down from it.

He stood tall and straight, with a stern face and eyes that conveyed a sense of authority and sharpness.

Su Li looked closely and her heart tightened suddenly.

That's right, it was the same Steward Tang I had met by chance in Yun County last time.

At this moment, Young Master Tang had already stepped forward to greet him.

Upon seeing Young Master Tang, Butler Tang's face instantly filled with a subservient smile. He quickly stepped forward, bowed slightly, and spoke in a respectful yet somewhat rigid tone:

"Young master, I've finally found you. This old servant has been on a long journey, and I can finally rest assured."

However, the moment he lowered his head, Su Li keenly caught a glimpse of disgust hidden deep in his eyes.

Young Master Tang was overjoyed. "Uncle Zhong, it's been a long time! I've been wandering around these past few days and haven't had a chance to send a letter home, which has made my father worry. It's really kind of you to come all this way to pick me up."

Butler Tang maintained his smile and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Young Master, you flatter me. Serving you is my duty."

As he spoke, his gaze passed over Young Master Tang and landed on Peach Blossom beside him. A hint of inquiry flashed in his eyes as he asked:

"This must be the Peach Blossom Girl you mentioned in your letter, young master?"

Young Master Tang slightly turned to the side, presenting the peach blossoms to himself, his eyes filled with tenderness and gratitude:

“It was Peach Blossom Girl. If it weren’t for her saving me, I would probably be dead by now. I must take her back to my manor with me this time to repay this kindness.”

Peach Blossom's father, who had been watching from a distance, suddenly lit up like a hungry wolf spotting its prey when he saw the attire of Young Master Tang and the steward, and then looked at the magnificent carriage.

He rubbed his rough hands together, a smug smile on his face, completely oblivious to his reeking of alcohol and slovenly clothes, and staggered over.

He glanced sideways at Butler Tang and said casually, "Since your family wants to take your young master back, then I, as his father, have to go and see him. After all, it was my Peach Blossom who saved your young master, so he can have someone to look after him in the manor in the future, right?"

A flicker of disgust flashed in Butler Tang's eyes, and his smile nearly crumbled, replaced by a troubled expression. His lips twitched slightly as he spoke:

"This...the journey is long and arduous, and the rules of the manor are numerous, I'm afraid you..."

Before Butler Tang could finish speaking, Young Master Tang quickly smiled and smoothed things over:

“Uncle Zhong, Peach Blossom saved my life, and I will never forget this kindness. Now that Peach Blossom is willing to come back to the manor with me, her father can also go with her, so that he will have someone to rely on. Moreover, if an elder is with us on the way, it will be better for Peach Blossom and me to take care of each other. Please tell my father about this matter truthfully, and I believe he will understand.”

Upon hearing this, Butler Tang's face flashed with displeasure, but not wanting to disobey Young Master Tang's wishes, he could only force a smile and respectfully say:

"Since the young master has said so, this old servant will naturally report the truth to the master."

Upon hearing this, Peach Blossom's father grinned, revealing a set of uneven, yellow teeth, and said smugly, "That's more like it!"

During her time resting in the village, Su Li noticed more and more of the strange behavior of Steward Tang.

She pretended to be picking wild vegetables nearby, but in reality, she was secretly observing the conversation between Butler Tang and Young Master Tang.

Butler Tang looked grave and worried. He pulled Young Master Tang aside and whispered:

“Young master, this old servant has to tell you something. After hearing about your affair with Miss Peach Blossom, the master was furious. He believes that this marriage is not a good match and has disgraced our family’s reputation.”

"The master is in a bad mood right now. If you take Miss Peach back now, I'm afraid not only will you not be able to give Miss Peach a proper status, but you will also make the master even angrier, which will be bad for Miss Peach."

Upon hearing this, Young Master Tang's expression instantly turned anxious, and he asked urgently, "What should we do? I can't possibly abandon Peach Blossom and ignore everything..."

Seeing this, Butler Tang was secretly pleased, but he still maintained a worried expression and continued:

"In my opinion, young master, you should go home alone first and show your filial piety to the master. After the master's anger subsides, you can slowly bring up the matter of Miss Peach Blossom. Young master, think about it. Miss Peach Blossom is pregnant now. If you go back rashly, the master might do something impulsive in a fit of anger and hurt Miss Peach Blossom and the child in her womb. Then you will regret it too late."

"Wouldn't it be better if the young master could persuade the master, then come and fetch Miss Peach in a grand manner, and give her a magnificent wedding?"

Young Master Tang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then shook his head firmly, his eyes filled with determination:

“Uncle Zhong, I understand what you mean, and I know Father might be angry. But Tao Hua stayed by my side when I was down on my luck, and now she is carrying my child. How can I abandon her alone?”

"If I leave now and leave her to face unknown dangers and gossip alone, how could I bear it? I must take her back with me, and even if it means facing my father's wrath, I will do everything in my power to protect her and the child."

Butler Tang's expression changed slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his obsequious demeanor and said, "Young Master, your deep affection is truly touching, but what about the Master..."

Young Master Tang patted Butler Tang on the shoulder, his tone firm:

“Uncle Zhong, it’s settled then. I believe that as long as I sincerely explain to my father, he will eventually understand my intentions. During this time, I will need your help as much as possible, and we will deal with this together.”

Steward Tang had no choice but to nod, cursing inwardly but still agreeing outwardly, "Yes, young master, this old servant will do his best."

But Butler Tang's whereabouts became increasingly mysterious.

Su Li had seen him secretly meeting with several unfamiliar men who had never appeared in the village before, near the woods outside the village.

They spoke in hushed tones, their expressions tense and wary. As soon as they sensed someone approaching, they immediately stopped talking and scattered in a panic.

Su Li pretended to pass by, and when she was a few steps away from them, she vaguely heard Butler Tang say through gritted teeth, "This matter cannot afford the slightest mistake; we must proceed according to plan..."

Before they could finish speaking, they spotted Su Li, immediately shut up, their eyes filled with wariness and hostility.

Su Li was filled with doubts and was about to go back to carefully consider a solution when she passed by a woodshed and heard the complaints of two of Steward Tang's attendants coming from inside.

A thought struck her, and she quietly approached, hiding in the shadows outside the woodshed.

A servant sighed, his voice full of exhaustion and helplessness: "These past few days have been exhausting. I've been running around with the steward, buying things and making arrangements, but I don't even know what he's trying to do."

Another follower snorted and chimed in, "Who says otherwise? The things they've bought are all strange and bizarre, just random objects. I don't know what they're good for."

The first follower said, "If it weren't for the pay, who would want to do this job? If something goes wrong, we'll all be in deep trouble."

At this moment, one of the attendants seemed to have heard something and said nervously, "Don't say it, don't say it! If the steward hears us, we'll be in big trouble."

The two hurriedly left the woodshed, looking anxious, as if afraid of being discovered by the steward.

Su Li couldn't help but wonder what the butler's purpose was in purchasing so many strange things.

Recalling the various unusual behaviors of Butler Tang in the past, she felt more and more that the butler had ulterior motives.

Alarm bells rang in Su Li's mind; she knew this matter was no small thing.

He rushed home, found Su Xiangsheng, grabbed his shoulder with a serious expression, and instructed him:

"Go to Peach Blossom's house right now and tell Peach Blossom and Young Master Tang everything I've seen and heard, word for word. Tell them to stay calm and not to act rashly. The steward of the Tang family is very suspicious. We'll talk about everything after we figure out the situation. Remember, be careful and don't let anyone find out."

Su Xiangsheng nodded vigorously, turned around and ran quickly towards Tao Hua's house, his figure soon disappearing on the winding village road.
