Chapter 255 Renovation

On the day before the New Year, when Su Changxu and He Beier came out of the door of the Household Department, Que'er was already waiting at the door.

There were light snowflakes in the sky today. Yun Jinglan held an umbrella with one hand and held the bird with the other. After seeing the two people coming out, he sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go over."

Que'er followed her aunt in a daze, and it wasn't until her mother's cold hand held his little hand that she felt a little more real.

My father and mother used to quarrel often, but later my mother said she was tired and stopped quarreling with her father. However, the issue of divorce was always on her lips, but when it came to this day, Que'er felt at a loss what to do.

Su Changxu has been unable to sleep these days. Whenever he closes his eyes, his mind is filled with his wife's face. He tried to numb himself through drinking, which made him feel even more uncomfortable in the dead of night.

He knew that he had let down a person who truly loved him, and there would never be such a person again.

Su Changxu was a little happy when he saw Que'er and wanted to touch her head as usual. The moment he raised his hand, an unpleasant smell of alcohol came out and he took his hand back.

"Are you going back to Jiangnan? Tomorrow is the New Year. I will take you back after the New Year."

He Beier shook her head and rejected Su Changxu's kindness. Although the two of them reconciled, things went smoothly but they didn't end up falling apart. Now she can still talk to Su Chang and Xu Haosheng is not easy.

"Since we have reconciled, we will not stay in the Hou Mansion. It will not be good if word spreads." He Bei'er had already contacted He Xunyuan, who was staying in the capital as an official, to pick her up. The carriage was waiting at the corner.

"I'm going to stay at my clan brother's house temporarily." He Beier waved to Que'er, "Qu'er, it's time for us to leave and say goodbye to your father."

This time we say goodbye, I just hope that we will never see each other again in the future. This is good for them all.

When passing by Yun Jinglan, He Beier smiled at her and said, "Take care."

Yun Jinglan put the umbrella in her hand into hers: "The road ahead is not easy, so be careful."

He Beier glanced at Yun Jinglan gratefully, knowing the deep meaning of her words.

The world is quite harsh on women, and the road ahead is difficult and dangerous, but she still has the courage to give it a try.

He Beier didn't look back, she wanted to go her own way. Remembering the past will only trap yourself in memories.

Que'er was pulled forward by her mother. Suddenly she looked back at her father, who was still standing in the snow, waved to her, and then disappeared into the street.

Yun Jinglan whispered: "Let's go, it's windy outside."

Su Changxu rejected Yun Jinglan's kindness: "No, sister-in-law, please go back first. I'll walk by the river and enjoy the breeze."

"Are you sure you're just catching the wind and won't throw yourself into the river?"

In the past, I heard of a woman who couldn't think of anything and threw herself into a river after being abandoned by her husband's family. This guy looked like... he really looked like he couldn't think of anything!
Not only is it unlucky to die outside during the Chinese New Year, it’s also hard to explain!

"Second brother, please be more open-minded. Although you no longer have a wife, you still have a whole house of aunts. Don't let your mind wander."

Su Changxu was already sad, but now he is even sadder.

"Sister-in-law, I won't be confused, I just... forget it, I'll go get a drink."

Yun Jinglan patted her chest, "That's good, drink less."

Su Changxu left quickly with messy steps.

Yun Jinglan came here with Jiujiu today. She turned back and Jiujiu was already drowsy. She pinched her baby girl's face and felt much more comfortable looking at her.

Jiujiu was woken up by her mother. She rubbed her eyes and pressed against her mother's arms. "Well, I'm sleepy."

[Why should we divorce early? 】

Yun Jinglan didn't know what divorce was, but it probably meant the same as heli. He was making noises about coming, but when he came, he fell asleep in the carriage again.

"I won't see Queer anymore, so why aren't you sad at all?"

Jiujiu glanced at her mother strangely, scratched her head and didn't understand why her mother said that.

[Sister Queer will not leave the capital. I miss her so I will go and see her! ] Que'er and the others won't leave the capital?

Yun Jinglan was only shocked for a moment, and then she figured out the reason.

After all, divorce is not a good thing. A woman will inevitably be harshly criticized when she returns to her parents' home. Even if the He family doesn't care about protecting their daughter, they still can't resist the slander of rumors.

If she stays in the capital, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Unless the He family comes to the capital to arrest people, why can't she live with a house and a shop. Taking advantage of the Hou Mansion's guilt, no one in the entire capital dared to embarrass her.

He Xunyuan, the younger brother of the clan, is deeply loved by His Majesty and can be regarded as a patron.

Yun Jinglan could only say that it was the Hou Mansion that trapped this smart woman.

She sighed as she hugged Jiujiu and kissed her forehead, "Let's go, it's time for us to go home."

The roofs of the capital city were covered with a thin layer of snow, and Chiu Chiu huddled in the warm quilt, unwilling to move.

Zhu Niang and Alian worked together to dress Jiujiu. Dongxiao pouted while holding the water basin. She even took her time to dress the young lady. She didn't know why the young lady liked them.

"This New Year's Eve, Madam has prepared lottery prizes for the two girls. Someone will send them to you later."

Zhu Niang and Alian were not from the Central Plains. Yun Jinglan asked them if they wanted to go back to the southwest for the festival, but they were rejected. They are not servants in the family, they will have rest after today.

Dong Xiao secretly rejoiced, she must take back what belongs to her!
Chiujiu shivered, "Cold~"

Then the little dumpling was wrapped in another layer.

Jiujiu was frightened by Emperor Jingming some time ago, and she refused to go to today's New Year's Eve banquet.

Jiujiu raised his hand and waved his hand: "No, go."

"Scary." The chubby little face was DuangDuang, and every piece of flesh on his body was filled with rejection.

Yun Jinglan glanced at Su Junyao up and down with doubtful eyes. Jiujiu used to like going to the palace, but the change started when the father and daughter came back last time. There must be something wrong!

"You two had better not hide anything from me, otherwise..."

The threatening eyes made the father and daughter shrink their necks and shake their heads wildly at the same time. It was so scary!

Jiujiu covered her mouth, then thought about it and covered her eyes instead. Out of sight out of mind.

[I don’t like going to the palace anymore. 】

Jiujiu strongly refused, and the two had to leave first. Su Junyao turned around and blinked at Jiu Jiu.

Jiujiu circled her fingers and made an "OK" gesture, [Understood, I won't say anything. 】

Su Junyao: "..."

Can’t this little ancestor’s voice be controlled?

Yun Jinglan: "!!!"

She knew it!

There are no tigers in the mountains, but chirping is the king.

As soon as her parents left, Jiujiu became angry on the spot. She changed her sleepy look just now and became so energetic that her two brothers helped her run around.

Su Xiucheng had a sullen expression on his face, as if he had lost his soul, "Jiujiu, I'm tired."

Tweeting, her lips pursed, she looked at her grandfather with tears in her eyes: "Grandpa!"

Mr. Su Laohou had a sullen expression on his face, "If you don't want to spank your children during the Chinese New Year, just let Rang Jiujiu do it."

This kid’s good days are about the same!
