C27 Stay

Su Ziwan thought for a moment and decided to let Autumn Water and Cold Dew in. When she first became the Miss of the Su family, she was taken care of by them. In her world, no one had ever been like this.

When the two of them came in, their eyes were still red. They must have cried a lot these days. As soon as they entered the room, they knelt down to greet Su Ziwan. Seeing that, Su Ziwan immediately went over to help the two of them up.

"Come and sit down. It's been a long time since I last saw you guys. Come and talk to me for a while."

Originally, when Su Lingyou let a group of servants go home, he let them go back as well. Although it was a favor, in the eyes of the servants of the Su family, it was simply sending them away.

These two had followed Su Ziwan since they were young and had been with her for almost ten years. After Su Ziwan had just recovered from her serious illness, they were sent out to punish them for not taking good care of the Eldest Miss. If it wasn't for the Su family's promise to give them some dowry, who knew what their family would do to them? Even so, their lives at home weren't easy. The two of them discussed for a while and came back.

Su Ziwan had just woken up and had just used some food, so she wasn't very hungry. Seeing that neither of them spoke, she let Yuejian take her people down.

"There's no one here now. If you have any grievances, just say it."

Autumn Water burst into tears. As expected, she didn't want them to leave. If she could stay with her for the rest of her life, she would rather not get married.

In fact, Su Ziwan also quite liked these two girls. If they hadn't discovered any clues, she would have been able to keep them by her side.

"Eldest Miss, please let us come back. Even if we don't stay by Eldest Miss's side, we can still be servants."

Although Cold Dew was not like Autumn Water, she still spoke with a choked voice. As long as they could come back, they would do anything. As long as they stayed in Su Manor, it was better than going out to get married. Not to mention, they were marrying someone like that.

Seeing the tears in their eyes, Su Ziwan decided to keep them. Besides, the Su family's little sister had said before she died that she would help her take good care of them.

"Fine, then stay. You've been by my side for so many years, and I can't bear for you to marry someone like that."

When the two of them heard Su Ziwan's words, they were naturally happy in their hearts. However, Autumn Water saw that Su Ziwan was not looking at them. Instead, she was looking at the dressing table. Following Su Ziwan's gaze, Autumn Water immediately understood why Master would send them out.

"Miss even took away the hairpin that Young Master Du gave her. Naturally, she is afraid to see us."

Originally, Su Ziwan did not make up a good reason, but she did not expect Autumn Water to find one for her. This reason was so reasonable. Cold Dew also heard it and looked over. What she did not understand at first, she now understood.

In fact, what they didn't know was that the hairpin had only been broken by Su Ziwan. She found a box and put it away. However, when she heard what the two of them said, Su Ziwan thought of another good idea.

Su Ziwan got up and went to the dressing table. She took out an exquisite small wooden box. Inside the box was the hairpin they were talking about. Originally, this hairpin was placed outside and could be seen at a glance.

"Please help me keep this thing. There's no need to repair it. She's gone anyway."

Cold Dew took it and opened it. It was indeed the hairpin that Du Heng had given to Su Ziwan. She silently put it away and shed a few tears.

This way, they were even more certain that Su Ziwan did not really want to send them out. They all knew about Su Ziwan's relationship with Du Heng. Those letters were sent by them. When Du Heng was buried that day, Su Ziwan left all the letters there.

"Miss, we understand your thoughts. In the future, we will definitely not appear in front of you. Or, we can go to the ancestral mansion of the South State."

Han Lu nodded her head, indicating that she agreed with Autumn Water's words. As long as they didn't casually get married, it didn't matter if they went to the South State.

"That's what I meant. You guys go to the South State first. That place also needs someone to take care of it."

When Autumn Water and Cold Dew heard Su Ziwan say this, they naturally thought that she was comforting them. But it was naturally good to be able to stay in Su Manor.

"Don't look so bitter. There's naturally a reason why I asked you to go back first."

Seeing Su Ziwan's serious and serious expression, the two of them felt that this matter was not simple.

"Master has already handed in his resignation letter to the Emperor. This is the residence of the Imperial Court, so we naturally can't stay here for the rest of our lives."

When Autumn Water heard this, she wiped away her tears. She realized that Lady Xiao had something to say.

"In two days, there will be some things that will be sent back to the South State. Remember, don't let the clan touch those things."

"Don't worry, Eldest Miss. We will take good care of the old residence."

"No, what you need to take care of is the residence outside the South State City. That is where we will be staying."

"Outside the city?"

The two of them were confused, but they didn't ask about it. The lady had her own reasons for doing so. The master's illness was getting worse and worse. They could only listen to the lady in the future.

"From now on, you will be hiding in the dark..."

Although they didn't finish their words, Autumn Water and Cold Dew understood a lot. In the future, if Master were to go to the west and return to the South State, he would inevitably have to deal with the clan. On the surface, the two of them had already been sent out of the young miss's room. But in reality, it was her eyes and ears. After staying in the mansion for a long time, she could still understand this point of the world.

"I will do as you say, lady."

After Su Ziwan gave them a few more instructions, she let them leave. After they left, Yuejian and Banxia came in to continue serving them. When Autumn Water and Cold Dew left in high spirits, they knew that they would be able to stay. Just as she was about to ask something, Wet Nurse Su came in. There were more than a few servants who were going to be released, and they all came according to their wishes. After all, they wouldn't need so many servants when they returned to the South State. Even if so many properties were sold, they wouldn't be able to afford too many people.

"Grandma, you're here. I was just thinking of looking for you."

"What orders does Eldest Miss have?"

"I'll have to trouble you to ask the servants I let out one by one. Ask every single one of them!"

Su Ziwan said the last three words word by word.

"Why is that?"

Originally, Wet Nurse Su had already asked, but she only asked the manager of the family. Originally, Su Ziwan also agreed, but after the incident with Autumn Water and Cold Dew, she felt that she could not do this anymore.

"I originally didn't want to do this, but under the current circumstances, I have no choice but to do so. It was a chaotic time. If they left the Su family, there might be people who would sell their children. Parents don't look like parents, so it's better for us to choose our own parents. In addition, the girls from our family are definitely many times better than those from poor families. It is not impossible for us to be targeted by those bad guys."

Hearing Su Ziwan's words, Wet Nurse Su did as she was told. Just now, she had also met Autumn Water and Cold Dew.

At that moment, the Su Manor seemed to be on the verge of a storm.
