Cui Yue waited and saw Su Yu coming to please her, so she snorted and turned her head towards the window.
Su Yu looked at her inexplicably.
However, thinking that he was coming to Cui Yue's uncle's house and asking for help, he managed to brace himself and said, "My cousin looks unhappy, but is it uncomfortable there?"
Cui Yue looked at her fiercely: "What did you call me?"
Su Yu paused and said softly: "My aunt specifically told me before she came that I should call you cousin according to my seniority. She told me not to lose my etiquette... Did I call you wrong?"
Although Cui Yue was still unhappy when she heard Su Yanyun's instructions, she didn't react as strongly as before.
She looked Su Yu up and down, and then hummed: "Call me whatever you want, but I want to remind you, don't think that calling me cousin will really make you the cousin of our Cui family. That's a nice name for the servants. Remember your identity, you are just the one who comes to fight the autumn breeze..."
Cui Yue started to speak eloquently again, and suddenly remembered the house rules that she had copied ten times. Her hands were still aching, so she reluctantly closed her mouth.
"Anyway, just remember your identity."
Su Yu had no intention of arguing with her. She lowered her head and said, "What my cousin said is that knowing my identity, I would never dare to get married to the Cui family. Now I can stay safely because I rely on the care of the eldest lady and my aunt."
Seeing that she recognized her, Cui Yue was a little satisfied: "You are still sensible."
The carriage swayed and stopped outside Yu Mansion. Cui Yue got out of the car first, followed by Su Yu.
But it was obvious that Su Yu's eyes were red, as if she was bullied and cried.
The servants following the carriage knew the eldest lady's temperament, and became more and more sympathetic to this weak and pitiful cousin.
Yu Mansion is also very big. If someone doesn't lead the way, you might get lost in it.
After twisting and turning, we came to a spacious and beautiful place like a garden. The person leading the way stopped and said.
It's not necessarily a garden. The rockery pavilion, the rippling lake, the quiet bamboo forest, the winding path that leads to nowhere, as well as some precious chrysanthemums placed on display, and friends in twos and threes enjoying the chrysanthemums, make up the scenery in front of you.
As soon as Cui Yue came over, he left Su Yu and went to find the sisters who were having fun.
She turned around and warned Su Yu: "Find a place to stay by yourself. Don't follow me."
This move was exactly what Su Yu wanted.
Su Yu hesitated to speak, and finally said with red eyes, "I understand, I won't disturb my cousin."
This made Cui Yue a little embarrassed.
Along the way, Su Yu acted like a submissive and obedient doormat, like dough, no matter how hard she kneaded her, she didn't have a temper. Bullying her didn't give her any sense of accomplishment.
"Forget it, it's up to you. If you want to follow, just follow."
Su Yu shook her head and said considerately: "Cousin, don't worry about me, I can do it alone."
Cui Yue was too lazy to care about her and said, "It's up to you."
Su Yu found a corner to stay alone, pretending to admire the chrysanthemums while letting the system check the male protagonist's location.
The male protagonist had to go to court in the morning, so he did not come with them.
Knowing that the male protagonist was about to arrive, Su Yu's eyes flashed slightly, and she quietly disappeared from the corner while no one was paying attention, wandering slowly according to the map given by the system.
[To be honest, I really don’t understand what’s so good about admiring those flowers. It seems that if it’s just a few petals, it won’t make a difference no matter how much you admire them. 】
The system felt the same way, with bright eyes: [Host, the hero sees the same thing! 】
The two wild boars, who couldn't eat fine chaff, happily reached a consensus.
After walking for a while, I saw the male protagonist.
Baishan was not seen, so he was probably staying with the servants like Zitong.
Opposite him, there was a man with his back turned to this side, whose face could not be seen.
One could only vaguely see that he was very tall, not inferior to Cui Ling, with gorgeous clothes and gold leather belts. The hanging cuffs were embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and he was holding a fan in his hand and pretending to fan it.
Su Yu observed from a distance. Cui Ling's expression was distant and cold, and his handsome face was slightly gloomy at the moment. He was talking to the man opposite, and the topic seemed unpleasant.
From the system, Su Yu learned that the man was the eldest prince.
Sure enough, he came, and this was a stroke of luck.
Su Yu was overjoyed and cleared her throat. Her face showed a hint of anxiety and confusion. She rubbed her eyes, made the eye sockets red, and squeezed out some water mist.
Then he walked towards the two people with lotus steps.
Seeing Su Yu, the conversation between Cui Ling and the eldest prince stopped, and his eyes naturally fell on the woman walking this way.
The eldest prince couldn't move his eyes away.
The temples are beautiful and colorful, and the fragrance has filled the road.
I didn't expect that when I came up and followed Hanzhang to visit Yu Mansion, I would encounter such a peerless beauty. I don't know which noblewoman she was.
Su Yu slowly approached and glanced at the eldest prince first. The man had narrow eyes, a jade bone fan in his hand, and a gentle smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked suave and talented.
Meeting Su Yu's gaze, the eldest prince's smile deepened.
Su Yu was startled, her cheeks were slightly red, as if she was embarrassed, her eyes trembled and she looked away.
She shyly hid towards Cui Ling: "Cousin."
Cui Ling was stunned for a moment when she heard Su Yu's name, but she didn't say anything. According to her seniority, she could indeed call herself cousin.
"What are you doing here?" Cui Ling asked out of courtesy.
The eldest prince was surprised that she was Cui Ling's cousin.
But he had seen girls from the Yu family, and none seemed to be this stunning.
Mentioning this, the mist in Su Yu's eyes became heavier, with a hint of embarrassment: "Cousin, I, I'm lost."
Cui Ling frowned slightly: "Where is Yue'er?"
Su Yu lowered her eyes and shook her head: "I don't know. I was separated from my cousin as soon as I came in. I accidentally walked here. I couldn't tell the direction and didn't dare to walk around. Fortunately, I met my cousin."
Su Yu carefully pulled Cui Ling's sleeve: "Cousin, can you help me lead the way?"
Cui Ling's sleeve was grasped by a soft white hand, as if she was afraid of being rejected. The woman was a little nervous, but she didn't dare to exert force on the hand holding the sleeve.
Cui Ling's original intention was to walk around Yu Mansion and then go back. He didn't want to go there to admire the chrysanthemums, lest he meet Lin Jinse.
Looking at the timid woman in front of him, he felt a little embarrassed.
Cui Ling thought for two seconds and said, "I'll send someone to call the maid and ask her to take you there."
"Why bother?" The eldest prince suddenly spoke up and stepped forward with a smile, "Since Hanzhang is in trouble, why not let me lead the way for this girl? I just have nothing to do."
Su Yu pinched Cui Ling's sleeve and looked at the eldest prince quietly, her eyes brightened with a hint of gratitude.
She slowly let go of Cui Ling's sleeves: "Cousin..."
Cui Ling suddenly changed his mind: "Your Highness is of high status, so I should lead the way."
Cui Ling selfishly did not want Su Yu to get involved with the eldest prince.
He knew something about the eldest prince in private. Su Yu was a guest of the Cui Mansion, and she called him cousin. The eldest prince was obviously interested in her, and he couldn't push her into the fire pit.
The eldest prince looked a little regretful but did not give up: "Han Zhang and I are together."
His gaze shifted slightly and fell on Su Yu's face, catching her shy expression and smiling slightly.
It would be wonderful for such a beauty to enter his mansion.
What a pity, she turned out to be Cui Ling's cousin.
If you can't take it by force, then you can only put some effort into getting her into your arms voluntarily. Beauty deserves some tolerance.
