C102 (2/2)
Su Li pursed his lips. The original owner was previously engaged to the Crown Prince's Wife, so the old lady might not be as passionate towards her.
There was a ghost!
She quietly walked forward, and Su Qianyan who was originally on the Countess' left, tactfully retreated to the side, smiling at her: ”Fourth Sister, come over quickly. After Grandmother heard about your troubles, her heart will almost die from pain.”
Su Li replied back with a smile and sat down.
”The ability of the Fourth Sister to solve cases is truly amazing. This morning, I heard from Little Ju that when I grow up, I want to be someone like the Fourth Sister.” Su Qingyu was being hugged by her mother, so she could not be intimate with Su Li, but when she spoke, her mouth was moving, and her face was filled with worship.
Hua Su used his hand to cover her chattering mouth, lowered his eyebrows and said, ”Qing Er is still young, sorry about that.”
”I heard it from someone this morning.” The old lady took over the conversation and patted the back of Su Li's hand, ”Child, the Emperor bestowed you with the position of female official and even gave you a reward of a hundred taels of gold. Why don't you send someone to report the good news? A good thing like this is going to be celebrated with a Happy Cannon. ”
Su Li retracted the sharp look on his face, he did not have any expression on his face, but still hung his head down slightly, pretending to be sad and wronged, ”I want to share the good news with my family, but, father wants me to die, I do not dare to come back …”
”Nonsense, even though you are a Shu daughter, you are still a Fourth Miss of my Su Family. You are still a glutton due to the tiger poison, and your father is even more so.”
”Didn't father want me to die to give my two sisters a place to sit when I was poisoned by the law?”
The old lady glanced at Shangguan Yao, and Shangguan Yao immediately spoke out, ”Su Li, you misunderstood your father. The poison on your staff only made you admit your wrongs, but your character was too stubborn, and was taken away by the Fifth Prince later on. This misunderstanding is growing bigger and bigger.”
Su Li could not help but find it funny. This explanation was so far-fetched that she could even say it out loud.
As long as her surname was Su, she would carry the Su Family on her back. Not to mention the many people watching outside, even if Emperor An was waiting to take advantage of her, Su Lin Cheng could treat her badly, but she could not be unfilial.
After the matter of Precious Moon House, she deeply understood just how important a person's reputation was.
It was just an act, it wasn't like she didn't know how to do it!
”Really?” The three words ”cowardly,” carried a trace of longing for his family.
”Of course it's true.” A trace of malice flashed past Shangguan Yao's eyes, but his face carried a smile, ”Your father originally wanted your Sister Er to bring you back to the residence, but you followed the orders to investigate the case.
”Now that the case has been solved and Grandmother is back, Fourth Sister, you can move back!” Su Qianyan observed the situation and agreed with the old lady.
”I heard that you live in the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Although you are currently working for the Fifth Prince, to be in the same room as a man and a woman, is indeed inappropriate.”
”We're already living together. If Fifth Prince is not willing to marry in the future, then it would be really funny.” Su Qianyue said sourly, and directly tied Su Li and Mo Lianjin's relationship together.
Su Li scoffed, ”Third sister, are you slandering the Fifth Prince? I live in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, and it's just that Fifth Prince has injuries on her body, and it just so happens that I can treat them. If the Third Big Sister's words were to spread, our own family's older sister would throw dirty water on our younger sister.
Su Qianyue's face turned green, and clenched her fists. She was naturally easily angered, and she had a strong sense of self-esteem.
”You still have the nerve to say that I'm implicating General's Mansion? Who was the one who was arrogant and despotic? ”Who was it that lost their innocence …”
Pow!
A resounding slap resounded through the entire antechamber in an instant …
