【V128】

After saying goodbye to Su Hua, Zi Su returned to his house.

Banxia had just put a quilt on her, and when she saw her coming back, she hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did Su Xi accept your hairpin?"

Perilla shook her head.

Banxia said without surprise: "I said, she would definitely not accept your hairpin. She is not that kind of person! Speaking of which, Miss Su is such a good person! She is capable and kind, and even the three young masters like her so much! Alas, if I had known she was so good, we should have lived with her in the same room and let Fuling live with Taoer and Lier."

Zi Su also thought Su Hua should be a good person. She might have misunderstood her earlier, or she was guarding against her at all, worried that she would ride on her head with the young master's love, but tonight she saved herself without grudges...

But for some reason, the expressionless face she saw by the pond always appeared in her mind.

At that moment, Su Hua was so cold that it was a bit terrible...

Uncle Wan entered the palace as a child, lived in the capital for twenty years before following the King of Yan to build a mansion. Then he took root in Yancheng. He was good everywhere in Yancheng, but he was just in the sea. The moisture was heavier. Uncle Wan didn't know what year it was because of his problem. His knees hurt severely when it rained.

"It's going to rain again." Uncle Wan dragged his painful knees back to the house.

"Little Quanzi!"

Uncle Wan found a chair to sit down and poured himself a cup of herbal tea.

A clever eunuch walked in. The eunuch was a slave of the Yan Prince's Mansion. After the master came to the capital during this trip, the young master's mansion welcomed the mistress, all the original servants and guards moved to the outer courtyard, but Xiao Quanzi was able to stay because he was an eunuch.

"Mr. Wan, are you done with your work? Are you hungry? I asked the kitchen to keep food, so I will bring you this!" Xiao Quanzi said with a smile.

"Stop busy, I'm not hungry." Uncle Wan waved, "You go get a bucket of hot water."

Xiao Quanzi looked at Uncle Wan's hand rubbing his knees and said in surprise: "Does your legs hurt again?"

"It's been a long time since it hurts." The climate in the capital was dry. He came here for several months and only had a few pains. The symptoms were much milder than in Yancheng. "It's going to change. If you have any, go quickly. Remember to make a little noise. The young man is asleep, don't wake up."

"Hey!" Xiao Quanzi took the wooden barrel to the kitchen to fetch water. Halfway through, he met Su Zi who was also heading towards the kitchen with a basket of cherries.

In terms of qualifications, Su Zi and Xiao Quanzi who had been in the Yan Prince's Mansion for several years, but who made Su Zi look like the young master? Xiao Quanzi had already included this number of person on the list of his own list of people who could not be punished.

Xiao Quanzi greeted with a smile: "Sister Su, such a coincidence, you go to the kitchen too."

Su Xu nodded slightly: "I'll make some cherry juice. Do you want to make hot water?"

Su Hua's eyes fell on his wooden barrel.

Xiao Quanzi sighed, "Isn't this the old problem of Manager Wan again? I'll get some hot water for him to bubble."

"Then you go." Su Qi signaled to him.

"Mr. Wan is waiting anxiously, Sister Su, I'll go first!" Xiao Quanzi smiled embarrassedly and walked away with the wooden barrel.

Uncle Wan did not leave Xiao Quanzi to serve him, so he asked Xiao Quanzi to retreat. He put his feet into a hot water bucket and twisted a cotton hot compress. But he was old and had little effect, so he still felt very painful.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

"Who?" Uncle Wan asked.

"It's me, Su Zi."

"You, wait!" Uncle Wan hurriedly lifted his leg up. It was already in great pain. After this movement, he even gasped for several breaths of cold air.

He put down his trouser legs, put on his shoes, and carried the bucket to the ear room, and then opened the door for Su Hua.

"It's so late, are you asking me for trouble?" Uncle Wan asked in surprise.

It was already dark, so all the servants who didn't have to wait for the night had to rest.

Su Qi handed two cloth bags about one hand to Uncle Wan: "I heard from Xiao Quanzi that your leg pain is wrong, please try this."

"This is..." Uncle Wan hesitated.

Su Hua said: "The earth recipe in my hometown is salt, ginger slices and green onion whites. The old people in our village use it if their legs hurt, and it won't hurt once they use it."

Uncle Wan took it suspiciously. His knees had been hurt for many years. It would be too naive to stop his pain with just a few things. However, he was kind enough, Uncle Wan still thanked: "Thank you."

"I'll leave first." Su Qi said with a quiet expression.

Uncle Wan was stunned for a moment. Is it an illusion or something else? I always felt that it was not Su Hua who was talking to him just now, but the young lady.

It looks different, but the calm and peaceful temperament of every move is just a trace of the shadow of the young lady.

Perhaps it is precisely this why the young master is willing to get close to her.

Uncle Wan couldn't help but remember the origin of Su Hua. According to Manager Hu's confession, Su Hua was from Wancheng. His parents died early and were raised by his grandfather. When he was thirteen, his grandfather also went there. She was thrown to the countryside by her aunt. A few years later, her family fell into a downturn and sold her to a son of the man who brought her to the capital and sold her to the Silk Music Hall.

"He is also a child from a poor family." Uncle Wan sighed.

It’s a pity that he has different fates and is a child of poor families. Su Hua has many wives so lucky to have a husband like the young master and give birth to three flesh and blood for the young master.

"It's a pity that such a good child." Uncle Wan shook his head, limped back to the edge of the bed, opened the cloth bag, as Su Shi said, it was salt, scallion and ginger slices, maybe it was just out of the pot and it was still hot, Uncle Wan covered it on his knees.

He didn't treat it as a living horse, but just used it as an ordinary hot compress. However, a quarter of an hour later, something incredible happened, and his knees really didn't seem to hurt so much.

In the room, Yu Wan was quietly guarding the three sleeping little guys. It was so late, and neither Yan Jiuchao nor Ying Shisan came back. She probably wouldn't send her son to the countryside tonight. Just so happened that she was a little reluctant to leave.

She was not thinking about things in front of so many people during the day. She was quiet alone now. She had to admit that she tasted good, but it seemed normal to think about it. Who made her so busy that she ignored them all? They were lonely. Another Su Hua who could make them happy came, and they would naturally get close to her.

But this Su Xi... always gives Yu Wan a discomfortable feeling.

Is it because of jealousy?

But why do you want to be jealous of a maid?

This really makes sense.

"Young Madam." Tao'er entered the house, "Sister Zi Su was frightened just now. I'm afraid I can't come here tonight to stay at night."

"Why did she fall into the water?" Yu Wan asked.

Tao'er said, "She went to Madam Fang. She slipped when she passed by the pond, but she fell into the water. At that time, Su Hua and Banxia were nearby and rescued her when she heard the call for help."

Yu Wan frowned, it was Su Hua again, why did she have her everywhere?

"Call Su Zi."

"yes."

Taoer called Su Xi to Yu Wan's house.

"You retreat." Yu Wan said to Taoer.

Tao'er quizzically retreated, leaving only Yu Wan, Su Hua and three sleeping little guys in the room.

Su Hua stood on the floor where the light could be seen without looking sideways. Yu Wan lowered the curtain and walked slowly to the official hat and chair to sit down.

"Kneel down." Yu Wan said.

Su Hua knelt down obediently.

If an ordinary person asks his master to kneel down as soon as he arrives, he will show a little surprise, but there is no trace of strangeness on her face, as if she is born so obedient. However, if you look at her closely, it will not be difficult to realize that she is neither humble nor arrogant.

Yu Wan's eyes fell on her face without a moment: "Do you know why I want to punish you?"

"I don't know," Su Qi said.

Yu Wan said again: "Do you really don't know or pretend not to know?"

Su Zi didn't say anything.

Yu Wan continued: "The first day you entered the mansion, the fire broke out after the cover room; the second day you entered the mansion, the water fell from the water. You happened to be present twice and were rescued by you. Do you think this would be a coincidence?"

Su Zhu said: "Why do I think it's not important? What's important is how the young lady thinks it."

Yu Wan said calmly: "What do you mean is that if I don't believe you, I'm throwing dirty water on you?"

Su Zhu said: "I dare not."

Yu Wan said: "I think you dare very much."

Su Xi bent down and knelt on the ground.

As the saying goes, if you catch a rape maniac, you will be famous even if you really want to fall into the trap of Su Hua. Su Hua saved so many servants' lives and pleased her son in this way. She dealt with the people without saying a word, and not only angered the public, but also became accused of his son.

She is not that stupid.

Besides, Su Hua is really innocent, otherwise he will be wronged by a good person.

Yu Wan said quietly, "You go back first. I see that you are very clever and can even tread on a swing. Why don't you move to my second brother's Zhuyuexuan tomorrow and take care of Zhuyuexuan's flowerbed. You won't have to go back to Qingfengyuan to serve you in the next few days."

This means to spend Su Zha.

This is to better observe Su Hua. If Su Hua is really a good person, then she will be at peace in Zhuyuexuan.

Of course, Yu Wan also has her own selfishness.

If my son had less contact with Su Lu, the enthusiasm would fade away.

Su Xi didn't say anything and bowed his head and left the house.

Perilla is not for night, so Banxia stayed to take care of her. Tao'er and Li'er have been for one round of night, and only Poria and Suzu are left.

"Let Fuling come over." Yu Wan said to Taoer.

Yan Jiuchao asked the guard to bring a message. He and Ying Shisan left the capital overnight and stopped going back tonight, so he asked Yu Wan to rest earlier without waiting for him.

Yu Wan nodded, called Fuling in, and let Fuling sleep behind the green gauze cabinet.

The size of a man with seven feet of Fuling is really difficult for her to sleep on her daughter's small embroidery bed. She curled up and didn't sleep well all night.

At midnight, everyone fell asleep deeply.

Su Hua, beside Tao'er, suddenly opened her eyes.
