C13 I Thought You Wouldn't Come!

"All these years, you have been the one in charge. I didn't care much about it, but in the end, they are all the seeds of Cheng'er, the daughter of the Su Mansion. Although you are the stepmother, you can't be too biased. Look at Yueru, and then look at your two daughters. Yueru only has two pieces of clothes, and it has been a few years since she bought new ones. Yueru, how much have you been embezzling? I don't even ask about this, but if you don't have anything to say on the surface, I won't just leave you here today."

Leaving you here alone to talk about these things was to take care of her face as the head of the family. However, the meaning of the words was not the slightest bit merciful.

"This... Yueru's monthly allowance, I have saved it for her. I didn't embezzle, and when she gets married, I will leave her with some makeup. As for clothes, you also know, Mrs. Tian. Yueru is not beautiful, and she doesn't like to dress up, so she doesn't ask for anything from me. It's also my fault for being negligent. "

The old lady glanced at her. She was an experienced person, how could she not know about the thoughts of Mrs. Tian?

"When did my Su Mansion become so poor that we had to deduct Miss's pocket money to make up for the makeup?"

Mrs. Tian smacked her lips and said.

"It's my fault for not thinking about it properly."

"Return the monthly allowance that you gave to Yueru to make up for the makeup. In the future, you won't be able to take a single cent less. Also, give her a few pieces of clothes and jewelry. After all, she is the young miss of the Su Mansion. If she walks out, she won't be laughed at."

"Yes, I understand. I will go and arrange it."

Mrs. Tian looked submissive on the surface, but in her heart, she was gritting her teeth in hatred. What kind of trick did this Su Yueru use to confuse the old lady and even learn to complain!

It seemed that she had to punish her, or else she would not learn to be obedient!

...

Su Yueru and Su Yuelan left the old lady's courtyard one after another. Su Yuelan faced Su Yueru and gave her a blessing.

"It's been a few days since I last saw you, big sister. You have indeed lost a lot of weight."

"Really?"

She touched her chin, which had grown fatter. It was obvious that she had been fattened up by rouge.

"Just a few days ago, when I went to look for Princess Hui Zong to play, I got some pastries. They are all things from the palace. If big sister doesn't mind, I will ask Xiao Tao to get some for you to try."

Was it possible that the palace's things were made of gold?

I have tasted all the delicacies in the world, and my taste is very picky.

"Since it's rare, second sister, you can keep it for yourself. I won't fight with you for this."

Su Yuelan's expression changed slightly. In just a second, she put on a smile again.

"It's not something rare. I just thought that big sister hasn't tried it before, so I wanted to share it with you."

What was she being cocky for? Wasn't it just because she had a better relationship with Princess Hui Zong? Wasn't it just a pastry? It was as if she had never eaten it before.

"Then there's no need. I have been trying to lose weight recently. I think it's better to eat less sweet things. Since the sun is hot, I'll be leaving first."

After saying that, without waiting for Su Yuelan to speak, she left with Yanzhi and Ru Ge.

"Miss, look at her. You sent her pastries with good intentions, but she still has a look of disdain on her face. She really treats your good intentions like a donkey's liver."

Su Yuelan smiled.

"I thought she had opened her mind … No matter, let's go."

...

When Su Qi and Lin Xuemei left, Su Yueru moved a chair and sat at the door with her legs crossed. She was holding a handful of melon seeds and was letting Ru Ge sing a little tune. She was very satisfied and did not have the slightest intention of sending her off.

Lin Xuemei brought two or three Maidservant behind her and walked over from afar.

"I have been nagging Cousin for the past few days."

"It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, my courtyard is big and it's usually quiet. It's also good to watch some monkey show occasionally."

Monkey show? What did she mean?

Lin Xuemei snorted and said again.

"Anyway, the courtyard that Aunt chose is not far from here. When I have time, I'll come back to play with you."

"No, please don't. I don't have that much time to deal with you."

"Cousin, are you not welcoming me?"

Lin Xuemei immediately revealed an aggrieved look. In the past, when Su Yueru saw her like this, she would always listen to her.

"Isn't this very obvious?"

Did she have to say it so bluntly?

Rolling her eyes, Su Yueru waved her hand and said.

"See you later."

"You … You!"

Lin Xuemei was so angry that she stomped her feet and turned around to leave.

Every time she couldn't win against her, she would always come up to her and beg for her humiliation. Who could blame her for this?

She waved her hand at Lin Xuemei's back, and the smile on her face slowly faded away.

Su Qi and Lin Xuemei had just left.

The next moment, Mrs. Tian's people walked in with a few trays in their hands.

They bowed to Su Yueru from afar.

"Miss, this is what Madam asked us to send over."

Su Yueru glanced at the clothes, jewelry, and gold and silver on the trays. Her expression remained unchanged, and she only took some silver and stuffed it into the hands of the old Nanny.

"Thank you, Nanny. Come in and have a cup of tea?"

"No, since the things have been sent over, then I will return to report."

"Roger."

"Yes."

Because she had taken in two maidservants, Shui Fen and Ru Ge, the salary of the two maidservants rose from a second-grade maidservant to a first-grade maidservant, so the monthly salary naturally rose.

They hurriedly went forward to receive the things.

After the old nanny led the people away, the four young maidservants' eyes widened.

"Miss… I have followed you for so long, but I have never seen so much silver…"

"I have never seen so much silver either. Yanzhi, count it, how much is there in total, and save it all."

As she spoke, she picked a few small jewelry from the jewelry box and gave each of them to Shui Fen and Ru Ge.

"This, Miss, we can't take it."

"Too little? Then there is more."

"No, no, no, we are flattered."

Ru Ge and Ru Ge were obviously short-lived with Su Yueru, so they were a little shy.

"Take it. As long as you follow me well, I will feed you all in the future."

Ru Ge and Ru Ge sighed that they were lucky to have such a good master.

Yanzhi and Shui Fen smiled and sorted out the things one by one.

Yanzhi handed the key to the box with the money to Su Yueru, but Su Yueru did not take it. She only told her to keep it.

"Miss, the madam suddenly sent so many things over. I feel that she has bad intentions."

"Hehe, silly girl, these are all what you deserve. She has been taking advantage of me all these years."

Su Yueru laughed.

...

The moonlight climbed onto the roof. Su Yueru moved a chair and laid down under the moonlight. The plum blossom stakes were about to be built.

Suddenly, a black figure descended like a ghost. He was dressed in a black robe and had long black hair tied up with a purple-gold crown on his head. His long black hair fluttered behind him. He straightened his body and placed his hands behind his back. His toes lightly tapped on the plum blossom stakes.

Su Yueru looked at the person and said in a low voice.

"I thought you wouldn't come."

"So you are the Su family's young miss."

"Uncle, you are too ignorant. The Su family's young miss is extremely ugly. Everyone in Luoyang City knows about her. I have already told you that I am from the Su Mansion. You didn't guess it yourself. You can't blame me for this."
