C11 Rumors

"Grandma, is this month's money ready yet?" Yang family asked.

"I was just about to tell you that we're here. It's for this old servant this morning." As the mama spoke, she took out a silver note from her sleeve and passed it to the Yang family.

The Yang family took a glance at it and frowned. They were clearly unhappy, "It's only about six hundred taels, it's a bit too little."

"You don't know, but the higher-ups are looking into this very closely, so it's not easy to do this kind of business."

The mama immediately explained, "These six hundred liang of silver is actually more than enough. I'm afraid it will be even less in the future."

"Then let them think of a way, or go far away from the capital. The investigation over there isn't that strict." Yang Shi said.

She didn't have much money on her, but there were plenty of places that needed money. She needed to curry favor with someone, and she didn't need any money at all, just like how the matriarch spent two thousand taels just to prepare a present for the matriarch. However, Su Yuyan's string of Buddha beads managed to beat her.

The mama responded and heard Mistress Yang sigh, "Sigh, it's already difficult for me to support her, but Jingyue isn't someone who can help. She'll just cause trouble in the future."

"Miss is still young …"

"Hmph, she's already twelve. She'll be old in three years. Now Matriarch He has started to arrange their marriage." Still young? When was she going to grow up? Su Yuyan is only a few months older than her, but her scheming skills are something that she can match up to. "

After all, Mistress Yang was Su Jingyue's own mother, so what she said shouldn't be a problem. However, if the mama said the same thing, even the Mistress of Yang wouldn't feel at ease.

Mistress Yang also knew, so she only grumbled a bit and didn't talk about this topic anymore.

"How are you preparing for that?" Mrs. Yang asked again.

How could she not attack Su Yuyan? She had only told Su Jingyue because she didn't want to leak any information.

"Don't worry, everything is going well." the Mammy answered.

In fact, Su Yuyan was not used to the fact that the Yang family hadn't made a move against her for such a long time.

As for the tricks Su Jingyue had used, Su Yuyan didn't care about them at all. Who would care about something that she could solve with just a raise of her hand?

Su Yuyan had a premonition that when the Yang family attacked again, it wouldn't be as probing as before.

"Senior Servant Liu, take Xia Cao and search our Awakening House again. Remember to check for yourself, don't miss a single spot." "Even if you found something, don't reveal it. Just deal with it quietly." She was not at ease with the others.

However, after a round of searching, she did not find anything wrong. Su Yuyan did not feel at ease at all. Instead, she became even more vigilant.

"Forget it, you guys just need to pay more attention." "Xia Zhi and I will go greet grandma together."

When Su Yuyan arrived at the Clear Level Courtyard where the matriarch lived, Su Jingyue was accompanying the matriarch.

Su Jingyue had been by the matriarch's side for a long time, so she naturally understood the matriarch very well. It was easy for the matriarch to laugh at her, and the previous incident was ignored.

"Yuyan is here. Come here and take a look at Jingyue's scripture."

The matriarch waved towards Su Yuyan, not forgetting to pull Su Jingyue along as she said dotingly, "This child … I thought she was just casually speaking about it and had forgotten about it after." I never thought that she would also be a pious person, really copying so many Buddhist scriptures over. "

In the past, it was her granddaughter who was insensible and offended Lord Buddha. Su Jingyue said obediently. However, she couldn't help but give Su Yuyan a provocative look.

As expected, she was the one his grandma doted on the most. So what if Su Yuyan tried her best? The matriarch had been easily coaxed back in by her.

Su Yu Yan acted as though she hadn't heard anything. She counted up to ten buddhist scriptures. When he looked at the handwriting again, it was actually Su Jingyue's.

She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. It seemed that Su Jingyue had really put in a lot of effort.

Su Yuyan felt that she had once again witnessed the power of the Yang family. To be able to teach an idiot to such an extent, that was truly amazing.

"It seems like the Senior Servant Tian that Grandmother invited is really not bad. It's only been a few days, but Jingyue seems to have become a lot more sensible."

With a single sentence, Su Yuyan attributed all the credit to the matriarch. She had also indirectly confirmed that Su Jingyue had acted inappropriately earlier.

"He is much more sensible now." The matriarch added, "Earlier, it was just the Yang family that held back Jingyue. Naturally, the children of the Proclamation of Marquis Mansion are all good. However, this Senior Servant Tian is indeed a good person.

Indeed, in the matriarch's heart, all daughters of the family were to be married off in the future. This would bring about great benefits to the family, so it was naturally all good. Even if it was bad, it was still the aunt's fault. How could her granddaughter be wrong?

Su Jingyue was so angry that she wanted to talk back to Su Yuyan, but when she remembered the Yang family's instructions, she could only swallow her anger back down.

Forget it, just let Su Yuyan be proud for a few more days.

Su Yuyan was alarmed. Su Jingyue was someone who had never been able to hide her feelings, but now that she had been taken advantage of by Su Yeyue, she did not even bat an eyelid. This was definitely abnormal.

But what exactly did the Yang family want to do, and what were their plans?

That night, Su Yuyan personally searched the courtyard when she returned to the Awakening Tower. Finally, she found a purse decorated with green bamboo under a nutmeg rack.

This purse was the blue bottom of a lake, and embroidered on it was a piece of verdant green bamboo. It was clearly a man's style, yet it had appeared in her courtyard at this moment.

"Let's see what's inside." Since the item had been found, there was no need to worry.

After Xia Zhi opened it, he couldn't help but feel a sense of lingering fear. "Miss, inside is half a jade pendant made of mandarin ducks."

Senior Servant Liu was so angry that her entire body was trembling. "This is going to ruin the young miss' reputation. Exactly who is it that can actually be so vicious?"

It had to be known that before their Young Miss had even left the pavilion, and even more so without a arranged marriage, a jade pendant that was wrapped in a man's lotus suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

If someone found out, even if the young miss had ten mouths, she could forget about it.

"Alright, let's burn the bag." Alright, let's burn the bag. "Remember, do it covertly. Don't let anyone see it." With that, Su Yuyan returned to her room.

A method to be discovered by others was not a good one. Su Yuyan didn't know if she had overestimated the Yang family, or if they still had some tricks up their sleeves that she hadn't discovered yet.
