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

Without hesitation, Su Yao hurriedly opened the wardrobe, stuffed all the jewelry and valuables she had accumulated into a bundle, and then haphazardly rolled up a few pieces of clothing.

Madam Ma pretended to urge him, "Yao'er, you'd better hurry up, or someone will find out and you won't be able to leave!"

Su Yao slung her bundle over her shoulder, took a deep breath, stepped out of the house, and hurried towards the edge of the village...

On the village path, Jin Dan ran all the way to the private school, his face flushed, and grabbed Su Xiang Sheng, who was about to go home, saying breathlessly:

"Brother Sheng, something terrible has happened! I saw... I saw your cousin Su Yao running away with her bundle on her back, and your second aunt is right there!"

Su Xiangsheng's eyes widened in astonishment. The book in his hand fell to the ground with a thud. He quickly grabbed Jin Dan's arm and asked anxiously:

"What? You can't be talking nonsense, what exactly happened?"

Jin Dan waved his hands repeatedly, his little face turning red: "How dare I talk nonsense? I just passed by the back of your yard and saw it clearly."

Su Xiangsheng frowned, his heart skipped a beat.

He knew his eldest cousin was extremely worried about her marriage lately, and had even come up with the terrible idea of ​​having her sister marry in her place. He never expected her to do something like running away from home...

When Su Xiangsheng returned home, his house was in complete chaos.

Uncle Su paced back and forth in the main room, his steps unsteady, like an ant on a hot pan.

His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were filled with anxiety and struggle.

Yao'er, that girl, usually flirts with that young master of the Dong family. Now that she's run away, is she going to elope with him?

He hoped that Yao'er could marry into a wealthy family, but definitely not in this way.

The Dong family is a prestigious and powerful household. How could a commoner like me dare to go directly to their door and ask them questions? If we offend them, how will we live in the future?

Uncle Su sat silently to one side, slamming his fist on the table with a dull thud.

Her leaving will not only ruin her reputation, but also make it difficult for her to get married in the future.

It even affected Xiang Ming's chances of passing the imperial examination!

How are we going to explain this to the Wang family...?

Mrs. Zhou slumped in her chair, her eyes red and swollen from crying, her voice hoarse.

"My poor daughter, you were always so pampered and spoiled, how could you be so foolish? We told you your parents would think of a way to help you, how could you just leave like that!"

She raised her hand and covered her face with a handkerchief, sobbing uncontrollably.

Su Li stood aside, coldly observing the chaotic scene, thinking to herself: Su Yao's departure was probably planned long ago, but where did she go?

The scene in front of the restaurant that day gradually appeared before her eyes.

Could it be that they really eloped?

Zhou glanced at Su Li, wrung out her handkerchief, stood up, and couldn't help but complain:

"Li'er, look at this mess. The Wang family is a rare find! They're well-off, reliable, and capable. Our whole family is hoping for this marriage! We'd even be willing to provide a dowry so you can marry into the family smoothly. What more could you want?"

"Now look what's happened! You don't want to marry her, and you've driven your cousin to run away from home. What if something happens to her outside? How will our whole family survive?"

Su Li remained calm, a mocking smile playing on her lips, and coldly snorted:

“Aunt, what you’re saying is really interesting. Why should I step in just because Su Yao doesn’t want to marry? My parents have their own plans for marriage. Do you think you can just do whatever you want with her? This is the path Su Yao chose herself. I’m not taking the blame for this! Besides, why can’t Su Zhen marry into the family? Why do you have to try to extort money from me?”

Su Zhen stood to the side, gently biting her lower lip, her voice soft and sweet:

"Second cousin, that's a really harsh thing to say. We're all family, how can we just stand by and watch our eldest cousin fall into this situation? If you really don't want to help, you don't have to say it so harshly."

At this moment, Madam Ma feigned concern and advised, "Stop arguing. Things have already come to this. Let's try to find Yao'er first."

Su Li, however, stared intently at Madam Ma with a half-smile and said, "Second Aunt, stop pretending. Wasn't it you who instigated Su Yao to elope?"

Mrs. Ma seemed to have been struck by lightning; her body stiffened abruptly, her eyes widened, and she thought to herself, "This is impossible. No one was home at the time. How did she know?"

However, she quickly calmed down, her eyes slightly reddening, and her voice tinged with grievance as she softly said:

"Oh dear, Li'er, what's wrong with you? I just wanted everyone to stop arguing and be peaceful. How could you accuse me like this? I've always treated Yao'er like my own daughter. How could I do such a thing? Don't ruin the harmony of our family."

"At a time like this, don't make things worse!"

"Fourth brother, shouldn't you discipline your daughter a bit?"

Uncle Su chimed in, his face showing some annoyance, and roared gruffly, "Li girl, don't make baseless accusations! What evidence do you have?"

Su Li slightly raised her eyes, her gaze full of mockery, and said leisurely:

"Evidence? Someone heard it clearly: Second Aunt, you told Su Yao that it was better to go out and find happiness than to marry someone she didn't like, and you even gave her advice. Do you dare to deny these things?"

Ma's face turned pale and then red, and she retorted, "You...you must have misheard me, how could I do such a thing!"

Uncle Su and Aunt Su exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with suspicion.

Uncle Su frowned, pointed at Madam Ma, and cursed, "Madam Ma, stop pretending! Why would Li'er falsely accuse you for no reason? If anything happens to our daughter, I'll never forgive you!"

With red eyes and gritted teeth, Zhou said, "That's right, Madam Ma, you always like to stir up trouble. If this really involves you, see how we deal with you!"

For a time, the entire Su family was in chaos.

The people in the courtyard were all talking at once, arguing noisily.

"Stop howling! We need to find someone quickly." Old Master Su sighed heavily, his voice trembling.

Grandma Su's voice was shrill: "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up! If you can't find it, our whole family will lose face..."

After a whole day of commotion, with arguments, crying, and panic all mixed together, the scene was chaotic.

It wasn't until midnight that exhaustion and despair finally overwhelmed the noise, and the Su family gradually quieted down.

Everyone understood that if even the slightest news of Su Yao's elopement leaked out, the Su family would be utterly disgraced and would never be able to hold their heads high in the village again.

Exhausted, Su Li dragged her leaden legs back to her room. She lit the dim oil lamp, its weak flame flickering in the silence.

Just as I was about to sit down, I caught a glimpse of something unusual on the windowsill out of the corner of my eye—

That usually dusty corner now looked as if it had been gently brushed, with a faint scratch.

Su Li's heart tightened, and she became alert. She quickly turned her head and looked around.

That one glance made her gasp!

An envelope had appeared on the table sometime during the day, with a black wooden plaque firmly placed on top of it.

Su Li slowly picked up the wooden plaque, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly opened the envelope...
