C10 The Thoughts of the Sisters
At this time, the sky was already dark. According to the rules, all the masters of Prime Minister Mansion had to eat together. Baihee was The last one to arrive was Baihee. She looked at the relatives in front of her, who had been separated from her for a long time, and her heart was filled with emotion.
"Elder sister, why did you only come so late? Yue Er's stomach is so hungry. " Su Wanyue used an innocent and innocent tone and a pure and innocent face. She opened her watery eyes and looked at Baihee as she spoke.
"So it's Fourth Younger Sister. It's older sister's. No, I came late and made you hungry. You should eat more later. " Su Wanyue, Concubine Xia's daughter, was only five years old this year.
Who would have thought that Fourth Younger Sister, who was supposed to be an innocent and naive age, would have all kinds of schemes in her heart. She would always think of ways to get benefits from her elder sister and throw them away.
In her previous life, if she did not trust Fourth Younger Sister too much, how could she fall for her ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain, causing her child to be drowned by Su Mannjing.
Baihee looked. She looked at the person in front of her who she loved dearly in her previous life. A trace of coldness flashed across her eyes. With just one sentence, she placed her in a position where she did not put the head of the family in her eyes.
In her previous life, because she had just woken up not long ago, her head was dizzy. It was also at this time that she came. And Su Wanyue also asked the same thing. Because of her question, her mind was thrown into disorder and she obediently admitted her mistake to Su Hu.
As the prime minister of the court, how could Su Hu, who held a high position, be willing to see his daughter's' disappointing 'appearance? Naturally, he was furious and banned her feet, causing her to not be able to go out to pay her respects on the day of her mother's sacrifice, and was crowned with the reputation of being an unfilial daughter.
"Fourth Younger Sister, you have to let go of the food. Don't let people think that our father abused you and made you hungry. " How could she possibly offend Su Hu after living another life? Baihee looked at Su Wanyue and smiled.
Hearing this, Su Wanyue pouted unhappily and stared at Baihee. Don't think that she could not understand the meaning in her words since she was young. She was saying that she was uncultured and forgot to respect others when she saw food like a beggar.
Concubine Xia who was at the side saw that the situation was not right and quickly used her hands to pull Su Wanyue's sleeve.
After Su Wanyue glared at Concubine Xia unhappily, she did not say anything in the end. Her heart was unwilling and she unwillingly lowered her head.
Baihee naturally saw the little movements of Concubine Xia and Su Wanyue but she pretended not to see it and said to Su Hu who was sitting at the head seat.
"My daughter is not feeling well and came late. Please forgive me. " She did not feel that there was anything wrong with being late.
"Hurry up and get up. You're my daughter. Why would I punish you for such a small matter?" Looking at Baihee's well-mannered and graceful manner, Su Hu was slightly stunned before saying. "Your health is not good. Quickly sit down. Don't tire yourself out. "
Baihee lifted her head to look at the seating area. At this time, Lee Min was sitting on the seat on Su Hu's left that should have been her mother's seat. It should have been her seat, which was also the seat on the right. She was sitting there. It was Su Mannjing. It turned out that. . . His father also did not give her all the dignity that a legitimate daughter should have. He frowned slightly and said.
"I wonder where dad wants my daughter to sit. " She was the daughter of the first wife, so she naturally wouldn't sit behind a concubine's daughter. Unless Su Hu had the face to do so, he wasn't afraid of the Imperial Censorate getting involved in it.
Hearing this, Su Hu was slightly startled. He did not expect Baihee to raise such a question at this time. Naturally, he also knew that Baihee was the daughter of the first wife and the eldest daughter. Whether it was sitting on the left or the second seat on the right, it would not be appropriate.
She sat on the second seat on the left. Lee Min was sitting on the second seat on the left. She was an aunt, not a proper wife. Even though all these years, the servants had respectfully addressed her as Mrs. Min, but that was only an honorific. She was still an aunt, not a wife.
The second seat on the right. That was even more unreasonable, there was no one in the residence who would let the heirs be ranked behind the concubines.
Baihee just looked at Su Hu with a faint smile on her face.
Facing Baihee's gaze, Su Hu felt a little awkward. He could only cough a few times before saying:
"Jinger. Get up and give Hee a seat. "
Hearing this, Su Mannjing's small face stiffened. The smile on her signboard could not be hung anymore. She got up and said while gnashing her teeth in anger.
"It's father!" Su Baihee, I, Su Mannjing, will definitely make you repay me twice the amount of what I have received today.
"Big sister, you have fainted these few days and as a sister, you did not come to see you. You are not angry, right?" Baihee had just sat down when she heard Su Wanqing's voice.
"How can that be? Although Third Younger Sister didn't come personally to see me, I sent someone to deliver a gift. Not to mention the bag you gave me, it is really useful. Look, my spirit is much better than this morning. In the future, I have to ask for more from Third Younger Sister. " Baihee did not hesitate to praise.
Su Wanqing, Concubine Hui's daughter.
"As long as Big Sister likes it. " Su Wanqing shyly lowered her head and at the same time cast a glance at Su Mannjing with uneasiness.
Su Mannjing only acted as if she did not see Su Wanqing's anxious eyes and said.
"If I knew that Third Younger Sister would also be going to see Eldest Sister, I would have gone with Third Younger Sister. That way, Eldest Sister might not be angry with me. "
Su Mannjing said as she picked up a porcelain bowl and filled it with a bowl of soup and handed it to Baihee. "Elder sister, you just woke up and your health is not good. You should drink some ginseng chicken soup to supplement your health. This is what I specially called the kitchen to stew for you. "
Baihee raised her head and a faint smile hung on her face. It was like a few leaves that fell into the water, stirring up ripples.
"Thank you for your concern, second sister. My body is almost healed. As for second sister, I still have to copy the female ring. It is the one that should be properly mended. Otherwise, when I lose weight, father and Concubine Min will feel heartache. "
Thinking of her previous life, Su Mannjing also handed over a bowl of ginseng chicken soup at this time. But at that time, she did not doubt Su Mannjing and directly reached out to receive the soup. Who knew that the boiling temperature of the soup was not ordinary. She lost her balance and sprinkled it on Su Wanqing and Su Hu by the side. Of course. In her previous life, under such circumstances, she could not help but be punished.
Su Mannjing's expression began to change as she said. "What is Elder Sister saying? This soup was specially stewed for Elder Sister in the kitchen. It is also a token of my appreciation towards Elder Sister. If Elder Sister is unwilling to accept it, then is she still angry with me?" Su Mannjing was anxious to let go of the soup in her hands.
"How could I be angry with Second Sister? It is just that Second Sister's body is delicate and precious. How would I dare to trouble Second Sister to personally serve the soup? However, since Second Sister said that this soup is rare, I naturally have to drink a bowl. "
The moment Baihee finished speaking, Da Niu immediately understood and went forward to prepare a bowl of soup for Baihee.
But Baihee did not even put the spoon into the bowl when a scream sounded out.
