Resourceful beauty

Chapter 163 Mother and Daughter
"Yu'er? Yu'er..."

In the beam of light from the opening of the palace door, Su Yuan, who was dressed as a princess, sat down on the front seat at the top, squinting her eyes and raising her hand to cover her forehead. After seeing the person coming, Su Yuan got up and jumped up crying with joy. .

In the past few days, the Yixin Hall was quiet, like a cold palace in a palace, Su Yuan panicked for no reason.

In those days before, she did not eat or drink, did not wash or bathe, as if she was about to die.

But in the past few days, she got up at Mao every day, washed her face with warm water, and carefully applied powder and eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror, nodded her lips and hairpins, until she was dressed in a princess-level formal dress, the person in the mirror , Returning to the grace and luxury of the past when she was Princess Qi.

If it weren't for the fact that the tables, chairs and benches around her were incomplete, and there were no antiques in the hall, Su Yuan's posture would really complement each other, but looking at it now, it seems a bit nondescript.

At the second quarter of Mao shi, it was the time when all the side concubines and concubines came to pay their respects, but it had been a long, long period of time, and no one had come to the Yixin Palace.

In my heart, I felt as desolate and lonely as if grass had grown.

Afraid?Do you regret it?

Asking herself all the time, Su Yuan found that even she couldn't give the answer.

If she is not afraid, every time there is a sound from the courtyard door, she is nervous with anticipation and fear, why?
If she said she regretted it, but if she had been a side concubine all the time, she might never be reconciled, right?
However, since she got her wish and became Princess Qi, why did she listen to King Lu's mercy and frame her husband-in-law?Why?
Su Yuan herself was a little confused.

After Zhao mama sprained her waist, she gradually showed many old problems, her eyes were cloudy and she couldn't see clearly, her legs and feet were not limp.

After all, it was her own nurse, Su Yuan couldn't bear it, she begged King Qi, and sent her to the village of Prince Qi's mansion on the outskirts of the city, it was like getting out of this ice cave-like place.

Qiutong and Qiushuang, Su Yuan knew, even if she asked, they would not be able to leave the palace. These days, the master and servant depend on each other for their lives, so what could they say?Tossing and turning, isn't it the same things as before?They were slaves, and they didn't dare to refute. Most of the time, it was just Su Yuan who said, and the two listened. After a long time, it seemed that Su Yuan was talking to herself. Gradually, it became meaningless.

Inside the hall of Yixin, it became more and more empty.

The arrival of Fang Ruyu gave Su Yuan a glimmer of hope.

"mother……"

Rao was full of resentment in her heart, seeing her mother's haggard face at this moment, Fang Ruyu's eyes were still red, she threw herself into her arms, and the mother and daughter burst into tears.

The mood gradually stabilized. Seeing that Fang Ruyu was still carrying a small bundle on her arm, Su Yuan was startled, "Yu'er, you are..."

"My daughter went to ask her father, but he said that her mother had committed a lot of crimes, so she insisted on not letting her out. The daughter missed her mother, so she asked her father to allow her to stay with you for a few days."

As Fang Ruyu said, she handed the burden to Qiutong and asked her to put it in the inner hall. Su Yuan shook her head and sighed, "Silly boy, why are you bothering?"

Su Yuan also thought a lot about the unsatisfactory marriage with Master Fu Rong's mansion these days. She only hated that her eyelids were too shallow at that time, but what's the use of repentance?Nowadays, it is impossible to divorce his wife, and it is even more impossible to reconcile her. Didn't Fang Ruyu ruin her life in her own hands?
Fang Zhengru, at any rate, is the blood of Prince Qi's mansion, no matter how serious a crime he commits as a mother, he cannot be implicated. As for Su Xiu... Well, at least they are married. From now on, they can live a good life.

Before getting married, Su Yuan was still full of anger, waiting for Su Xiu to come in and take care of her. Now, she doesn't even have time to take care of herself, so Su Xiu can let her go.

Thinking of the end, Su Yuan was still most worried about Fang Ruhui.

Although Su Yuan was under house arrest, when she asked about outside affairs, the women guarding the gate never kept her secret. Su Yuan naturally knew about Fang Ruhui's death and refusal to marry.

If Fang Ruhui couldn't figure it out, how could Su Yuan not figure it out, but because she couldn't see Fang Ruhui now, Su Yuan seemed to be suffering like coptis in her heart.

Fang Ruyu's arrival made Su Yuan seem to have grasped the straw to save her life.

"Yu'er, turn around, you go to see your sister, and then beg your father, the marriage he promised for your sister is very good, don't let your sister play foolishly, please ask your father to make an appointment sooner." Once the marriage is settled, let your sister marry over."

Holding Fang Ruyu's hand tightly, Su Yuan said eagerly, as if she was telling her last words, "Jiangbei is the place where you grew up, and there is nothing to be familiar with when Huier married. That person's family background is simple and innocent, thinking of Huier She is the young lady of Duke Qi's mansion, so I dare not neglect her, and with your father and son here, as long as he marries Huier, he will have a great future waiting for him in the future, and Huier can live a good life along with her."

Fang Ruyu's complexion gradually turned bad.

She didn't notice the change in the eldest daughter's expression at all. Su Yuan lowered her head and thought about something quickly. After a while, she looked up at Fang Ruyu and said, "You know your sister's temperament, so you can persuade her. Tell her not to be stubborn anymore. As long as this marriage is settled and your father is present, the imperial concubine will not dare to underestimate Huier's dowry. Let her embroider her wedding dress in peace and order to prepare for her marriage. besides……"

"Women are married at home from their fathers to their husbands. Let her not rely on the power of Prince Qi's mansion to bully my aunt and in-laws. Be kind and live a good life. The most important thing is to keep her husband and son-in-law together and give birth to a son earlier. The status of the family will be stable. In the future, even if my son-in-law becomes a first-rank official, no matter how many concubines there are in the inner house, Huier will also be a first-rank wife. There is still a long way to go, let her take a long-term view and don't get confused."

Fang Ruyu's heart cooled down little by little for Su Yuan's detailed explanation.

Back then, if my mother was willing to make such meticulous plans for her, how could she not have found out that Liu Yu was that rich and jaded dandy?How could I marry and suffer so much grievance and suffering?
Gently pulling/leaving his hand from Su Yuan's palm, Fang Ruyu held back and bent the corners of his mouth, "Don't worry, mother, I will go and persuade my sister."

Su Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief as if she was relieved from a heavy burden.

As long as he kills himself and refuses to admit that he and King Lu framed King Qi, only Su Xin and Concubine Fang were framed, King Qi will at most divorce him, at least he still has a life, doesn't he?
Keep the green hills, not afraid of no firewood.Even if he is divorced, as long as he has a few children, the Su Mansion will not do anything to him. No matter how many mocking eyes and harsh words, how little did he hear before?Don't take it too seriously.

Already ready to be abandoned by King Qi, Su Yuan is most worried about Fang Ruhui now. Therefore, this marriage is the most important thing, and it must be settled before she is abandoned, otherwise, it will be ruined. Is it true that the eldest daughter's marriage should make the younger daughter suffer too?

She would never allow it.

Making up her mind, Su Yuan instructed Fang Ruyu in every detail, even teaching her how to cry when facing King Qi.

Fang Ruyu seemed to be nodding seriously in response, but her heart had already turned to ice.

Marry your younger sister to a good family, and you will have plenty of happiness to enjoy in the future.The younger brother is married again, so she doesn't need to worry about it anymore, and she is already married and has become like this, so don't worry about it, right?

Maybe, if you are in a hurry, you can still push Su Xin's death on yourself. After all, Su Xin died after drinking the medicine she brought up, and the things that shouldn't be in the bowl of medicine were added by herself Well, it should be you who killed Su Xin, right?

With a sneer in her heart, Fang Ruyu finally made up her mind.

Patting Su Yuan's hand reassuringly, Fang Ruyu said softly: "Mother, it's rare for my daughter to come back once, so she should be filial. Don't you love pearl and emerald soup the most? My daughter cooks it for you. .”

Looking at the eldest daughter who was always sensible, Su Yuan nodded in satisfaction, and watched her leave the Yixin Palace.

Except for Qiutong Qiushuang who served in the inner hall, and the two servant girls in the courtyard, there was no one else in the Yixin Hall. The three meals a day were prepared and delivered from the big kitchen.

Fang Ruyu got King Qi's permission to enter the Yixin Hall, and said that she would not go out until a few days later, and the women guarding the gate let her go.

Seeing that Fang Ruyu didn't intend to go in and out, she just wanted to make ingredients for the soup and a servant girl to light the fire. The mother-in-law who guarded the gate didn't make it difficult for her, so she sent a little servant girl to report to Chen Mei.

After half an hour, a little maid came with a basket.

The basket is full of ingredients for Pearl Jade Soup and all the seasonings.

Washing hands to make soup, at lunch time, the big kitchen brought two meat, two vegetables, four dishes and one soup, Su Yuan sat at the dining table, Fang Ruyu came in with a tray, it was steaming pearl emerald soup.

The mother and daughter ate, never mentioning the house arrest and what to do in the future. They talked and laughed during the meal, which made the eyes of Qiu Tong and Qiu Shuang, who were watching from the sidelines, warm.

After finishing the meal, Fang Ruyu filled a bowl of soup with her own hands and brought it to Su Yuan.

Su Yuan looked relieved.

With a calm face, Fang Ruyu's eyes became flustered for no reason.

Staring closely at the bowl of soup, hoping that Su Yuan would finish drinking it soon, and hoping that she would say that she was full and didn't want to drink anymore, Fang Ruyu felt confused.

The next moment, Su Yuan picked up the bowl and fed it into her mouth with a spoon.

With a hot head, Fang Ruyu overturned the bowl of soup with a slap.

"Yu'er, you..."

Stunned by Fang Ruyu's actions, Su Yuan looked up at Fang Ruyu suspiciously while wiping the soup spots on her skirt with the handkerchief.

Seeing the bracelet on her wrist, Su Yuan was stunned.

It was a hollow bracelet made of plain silver and pinched with flowers. On the day Su Xin died, the nuxe powder in the medicine bowl was packed into Su Xin's house in this bracelet.

Now, what's in it?
Su Yuan didn't dare to think about it, nor did she want to think about it.
