Chapter 60 Inability to Compete for Favor(1/2)
Su Jinyu wanted to play tricks with Xu Xiuyi, but he was actually a bit greener, so he easily defeated Su Jinyu, and Xu Xiuyi didn't dare to make any fuss.
As expected, Su Jinyu started eating and taking medicine. Xu Xiuyi asked someone to go to the old lady and tell him that Su Jinyu had agreed to give him the child, and asked the old lady to formally write the dumplings into the family tree and write them into Xu Xiuyi's hands.
Xu Xiuyi solved this dilemma for the old lady easily. The old lady didn't know what method she used, but she felt even more unhappy with Xu Xiuyi.
In the old lady's room, a lamp of sandalwood was lit, and she was concentrating. Su Yalan stayed by the old lady's bed, peeling apples for her.
Old Mrs. Su did not feel happy because Su Jinyu was finally willing to take medicine, but the expression on her face was even more gloomy.
Su Yalan always understood the old lady's thoughts, but now she couldn't guess who the old lady was venting her anger on with her humble face.
"Mother, are you still angry at Xu Xiuyi?"
Old Mrs. Su snorted from her nose.
"You have also seen her attitude. Relying on the influence of her mother's family, she is trying to take advantage of me."
When Su Yalan came back to her parents' home this time, she had already calmed down a lot. Because she came back in such a downcast state, she felt a little inferior in front of others. But behind closed doors, in front of Old Mrs. Su, she was still the same person who had nothing to do with Old Mrs. Su.
Talk bad about this, talk about that bad second lady of the Su family.
Hearing what Old Mrs. Su said, she also echoed: "No, I am very arrogant when I look at her. She doesn't look down on you at all, mother."
Su Yalan is ostracizing Xu Xiuyi now, but she is actually making plans for herself.
Xu Xiuyi is in front of this family. If the old lady goes there one day, Xu Xiuyi is not sure whether she will be willing to take her in. She was kicked out of the palace and was already humiliated. Someone poked her spine and pointed at her, which hurt her.
I don't even dare to see her. I always feel that everyone is looking at her as a joke behind her back.
Now that she is Mrs. Su, her biological mother is still alive, so the Su family has a place for her.
Once the old lady goes, Xu Xiuyi will kick her out if she can't protect her. She is eagerly hoping that the old lady Su will take back her rights and let her brother Su Jinyu take charge of the house. She will still have a bite to eat in the future.
.
She couldn't stand the second expulsion. Being kicked out of the palace had already cost her all her face for thousands of years. If she was kicked out from home again, she probably wouldn't be able to survive.
She saw that the old lady's body was not very strong, and who knew whether she would pass away one day. She was worried that the old lady would not die so quickly, and at least suppressed the memory of Xu Xiu before leaving.
As for the old lady, she doesn't have much emotion anymore. The old lady is just a supporter for her. She doesn't have many expectations, she just wants a place to stay. She is afraid that Xu Xiuyi will be in charge and will not even give her a place to stay.
.
Therefore, she complied with the old lady and pushed Xu Xiuyi to death: "I can see it clearly today. Xu Xiuyi is a very scheming person. It shows that he has taken away the anger of the second son's family. Look inside the door of our house.
Only the aggressive couple in the second child's family can compete with her. The old man's family have all become her dogs now. They are grateful to her. She tells them to go to the east but not to the west. When she calls them, they don't retreat.
Later, mother, you became ill again, and she lost her fear."
Old Mrs. Su was not happy, and her face became even worse when Su Yalan said this.
"Look at her now, even your fourth brother can bear it. I tried to persuade you and your fourth brother would not rely on me for life or death. She didn't understand my painstaking efforts of dragging a sick body and begging. Instead, she went there in the afternoon.
, your fourth brother just obediently started taking the medicine, she really wants to hold everyone in my Su family in her hands."
By this time, Su Yalan had understood why the old lady looked unhappy instead of happy when Su Jinyu started eating.
It turned out that the old lady had such an idea.
She naturally added fuel to the flames and said in a loud voice: "No, when I see my fourth brother crying like this, fighting for life and death, refusing to give Lan Yatou to her, and treating Lan Yatou as her darling, how can she, Xu Xiuyi, cry?"
If you ask me a few words, my fourth brother will be soft-hearted and let go. I think Xu Xiuyi either used a honey trap or moved out of her natal family again."
Speaking of the beauty trap, Su He, the old lady of the Su family, sat up from the bed. Due to the big movements, she felt dizzy for the first time. She screamed twice, and Su Yalan quickly got a pillow for her to lean on.
"Mother, please slow down."
"You mean Xu Xiuyi seduced your fourth brother?"
Old Mrs. Su couldn't wait to catch her breath. She just felt that if this was really the case, it would be such a scandal. If word spread, Xu Xiuyi could destroy her two sons.
Su Yalan did not expect such a big reaction from Old Mrs. Su, but when she saw Old Mrs. Su reacting like this, she felt secretly happy, but her face still looked heavy: "Mother, what do you think the fourth brother's temper is like?
The best thing to understand is that he is a stubborn person. You have not been able to control things he doesn’t want to do since he was a child. Let’s not talk about other things, just talk about those girls. You have repeatedly warned him not to touch them. As for him, he refuses to change despite repeated admonitions. In his bones
Even though she is a bit lustful, Xu Xiuyi is also a very beautiful person."
"Shut up!"
Old Mrs. Su knew that Su Jinyu was a pervert and would get attracted to prettier women, but she didn't allow others to tell her.
And this kind of thing is a glorious thing. Su Yalan's words did not say that Xu Xiuyi seduced Su Jinyu, but that Su Jinyu coveted Xu Xiuyi, she would be happy.
Su Yalan had lived in the cold palace for a long time, and her speech was no longer as tactful as before. The old lady shouted angrily, and she was startled and did not dare to speak again.
The old lady gave her a cold look: "Watch your mouth. If any gossip comes to me from outside, I will tell you to look good."
Su Yalan felt aggrieved. This was her biological mother. When she was well-off, she used to call her affectionate. Now she has no use value and has even brought bad luck to the Su family. She no longer regards her as a person.
Su Yalan bit her lip, tears were about to fall.
Mrs. Su finally softened her tone: "This kind of thing cannot be talked about randomly. Your fourth brother wouldn't act like this if he thought about it. He has a sense of proportion."
"Yes, it's Lan'er who is talking nonsense. Mother, please don't forget to keep this in your heart, so as not to get angry."
Su Yalan held back her grievances and covered Old Mrs. Su with a quilt before saying goodbye.
As soon as she returned to her Buddhist hall, she couldn't help but howl, and the serving maid Pearl came over and gently stroked her back.
"Grandma is so angry."
Both Pearl and Yingbi had served Su Yalan before. After Su Yalan entered the palace, Pearl and Yingbi went to the old lady's room and acted as second-class girls. Later, Su Jinyu slept with the old lady's favorite maid Mingxuan. In order to hide her ugly appearance, Su Jinyu
After sending Mingxuan to the countryside, Yingbi was promoted to the first-class girl next to the old lady, while Pearl was still a second-class girl.
This time when Su Yalan came back, the old lady put the pearl over to serve her, saying that it was an old man she had used before and she was more accustomed to using it.
Before she left home, she had a very good relationship with Pearl Yingbi. She had no airs about being a lady. Pearl and Yingbi were very friendly to her. When she came back this time, she believed that these two people were the only ones in the whole house who would not poke fun at her.
Her spine laughed at her, and she never concealed her emotions in front of Pearl.
This time she cried sadly, and Pearl comforted her softly. She simply hugged Pearl and cried, and her tears fell on Pearl's shoulders, oozing out a large water stain.
Pearl patted her back to comfort her, like comforting a child.
"Grandma, please don't cry. You'll get sick from crying."
"It would have been better for me not to come back at that time and go away to find a small place to live. Now I don't have to be so angry. My mother didn't like me before. It was difficult for me to live in the palace when I was about to enter the palace. I have to take care of everything.
, my mother refused to give me more money, and only took care of my eldest sister. Now I have embarrassed her, I have embarrassed the entire Su family, and she wants me to die."
Pearl hurriedly said: "Anyway, grandma, you think too much."'
"Why do I think too much?" Su Yalan let go of Pearl, with a look of resentment on her face, "Zhenzhu, you know best the status of our four sisters in her heart. The third child is a treasure, the fourth child is a pimple, the eldest sister is the palm of the hand, but I can't even
The flesh on the back of your hand doesn’t even count.”
"Grandma, why do you belittle yourself like this?"
Pearl feels that Su Yalan is a little extreme. Mrs. Su is biased in her treatment of her children, but Pearl has also served Mrs. Su for these years. During the time when Su Yalan's accident happened, Mrs. Su fasted and prayed for Su Yalan's safety every day.
Pearls are seen with one’s own eyes. I wonder if there is any mother in the world who wishes her children to die.
Pearl had been following Mrs. Su for all these years, so she naturally felt a little fondness for Mrs. Su. Knowing that Su Yalan was talking, she comforted her and said: "Grandma, please stop crying. The old lady loves grandma in her heart.
Grandma, look at everything in this house, all purchased according to grandma’s preferences.”
Su Yalan heard what Pearl said. Although it was not obvious in her words, she could still tell that she was looking towards the old lady. Although Pearl was her maid and had taken care of her when she grew up, after all, Pearl had been following the old lady in the past few years, so she could not keep her heart together.
Posted more to the old lady.
Su Yalan felt sad. She was the maid she loved the most, but now her heart no longer cares about herself.
However, she did not let the sadness show on her face. Instead, she wiped her tiredness and forced a smile: "It was actually my fault today. It's just that I have lived in the palace for a long time and my temper is bad. I know that my mother
It’s great for me.”
She said this on purpose. She was afraid that Pearl would tell the old lady what she said just now, which would make it really difficult for her to be a good person in the Su Mansion in the future.
Pearl looked at her and smiled slightly: "This is the best way for grandma to say."
"Oh Well."
She tried her best to maintain a gentle smile, but her heart became bitter.
It would be better not to come back then. Now, not only has she become a complete outsider in this former home, but she also feels that she is not even as good as a servant.
Hey, I thought she had her own glory days, but now, she fell from the clouds into the mud, rolling around trying to stand up, but there was no one who could support her.
She deliberately wanted to rely on the old lady, but she already understood the old lady's attitude today. She couldn't even compare to Su Jinyu.
As for Xu Xiuyi, she didn't dare to climb it.
The only person she can rely on is her biological brother Su Jinyu.
*
Su Jinyu didn't dare to cause trouble for her anymore. After Xu Xiuyi came back, she ordered Jinyuyinyu to hire a matchmaker tomorrow. As the head of the Su family, she wanted to marry Su Jinyu a wife.
This is a happy event, and the gold, jade, and silver are naturally rejoicing.
They probably didn't expect that when the matchmaker came the next day, what Xu Xiuyi asked was not whose virtuous lady was still waiting to be married, but said: "Seventh aunt, do you have anything that you have been asking for for many years and can't find it?"
The lady from your husband’s family?”
