"What did you say?"
Gu Yue didn't hear clearly from above, so she asked him carefully. Just when she saw Su Wan and Su's mother being stopped by the libertine Wang Gongzi, she knew something was up, so she sent her servant down to take the opportunity to rescue them.
As for how to say it, she didn't teach her.
The boy told him exactly what he said. When Gu Yue heard this, he slammed the table angrily:
"How can you say that? Aren't you inviting hatred for them? You have offended Mr. Wang. What if he holds a grudge and goes to the Su family to punish you?"
Gu Yue thought to herself that if she were someone like Mr. Wang, she would definitely settle the score later.
"Miss, I didn't think so much..." The boy was so frightened that he knelt down with a plop.
Chen Yinghong was standing aside wearing a maid's clothes and combing her hair in a maid's bun. When she saw this, she also came to talk:
"Miss, don't you dislike Su Wan? Why do you want to help her out?"
"I was helping my adoptive mother out of trouble. The Su family's parents treat me well. I definitely can't just watch them being bullied!" Gu Yue explained matter-of-factly.
"But, Aunt Su is fine now. If we want to settle the score, we have to go to Su Wan. She is so crazy on weekdays and doesn't take you seriously, and even makes the brothers of the Su family not close to you. How about letting her Forget about being the prince’s seventh concubine.”
Chen Yinghong said fiercely, trying to defend Gu Yue, but after hearing what she said, Gu Yue looked at her in disbelief:
"Yinghong, how could you have such an idea? It's true that Su Wan and I are not familiar with each other, but we can't be so vicious as to ask someone to be a concubine. Besides, the prince's settlement of accounts after the fall will also affect the rest of the Su family. My brothers will not just watch her being snatched away. There will inevitably be a dispute. Although everyone is unhappy about the exchange between Su Wan and I, we cannot harm her like this!"
Gu Yue twisted her handkerchief, feeling very uneasy. After all, she was a heroine in the past, and her heart was not very vicious. In other words, she didn't hate Su Wan that much.
She was even more afraid. If things really came to that, if the Su family knew that she had done bad things with good intentions, would they still be able to forgive her?
Chen Yinghong also realized that she had exposed her true nature and what she said was inappropriate.
However, she is now so dignified in front of her personal maid. The Gu family sees that she and Gu Yue are young and is very polite to her. She can't get separated from her because of this matter. What if she is kicked out?
So Chen Yinghong immediately knelt down, took Gu Yue's arm and prayed:
"Yueyue, I only said such angry words because I was fighting for you. I didn't really think so."
"Okay, get up, I don't blame you!" Gu Yue pulled Chen Yinghong up.
She had a headache. Although she hated Su Wan for taking away her brothers' favor all of a sudden, and she wasn't happy with Su Wan when she went back last time, she couldn't help but watch Su Wan become the prince's concubine.
They are all girls of average age. When encountering something like this, they can't even think about being jealous. All they can do is sympathize.
She couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach when she thought of someone like Mr. Wang and his virtues.
…
Su Wan didn't know that Gu Yue was kind enough to help her. She didn't take the initiative to steal anything from her. She had a clear conscience, and he didn't take the initiative to have any ill intentions towards her. However, she guessed that the person just did it on purpose.
She and Su Mu slipped out of the city, and Su Mu was uneasy along the way.
"Wan Wan, if this prince is really that kind of person, what should we do if he comes to settle accounts with us?"
"Mom, he must have inquired about our family's affairs. He will come sooner or later, but the soldiers will cover up the water and the earth. If he dares to mess around, we are not afraid!"
Su Wan is open-minded. At worst, when the time comes to report to the official, doesn't it mean that the magistrate of Qinghe County is a good official?
After hearing what Su Wan said, Su's mother became even more panicked. She always felt like someone was chasing her from behind, and she kept looking back.
"Mom, don't tell dad and brothers when you go back. They will think too much later."
Su Wan didn't want this to affect them, and after knowing it, there was no use except being anxious.
When the time comes, given my brothers’ personalities, don’t be impulsive and make things more difficult.
The prince didn't do anything, so you can't just go and sue someone right away.
"I know, I won't tell."
However, Su's mother was really worried.
After walking for a long time, she took Su Wan's hand again and said solemnly:
"Don't worry, I will protect you to the death!"
Su Wan heard the sound and quickly covered her mouth:
"Mom, it won't happen if you die or die. It won't happen."
The mother-in-law said it in a hushed voice, but Lao Hongtou probably didn't hear it clearly.
When they got home, the two of them acted as if nothing had happened and really didn't say anything.
No one else in the family noticed anything was wrong and did what they should.
Except for Su Mu's little heart pounding, Su Wan really didn't take it seriously.
The Wang family mainly wanted the formula of goat milk soap. As long as she didn't tell them, they wouldn't do anything to her, she was sure.
These businessmen are all greedy for these benefits, and the rest are secondary. They took a fancy to the absolute benefits of this goat milk soap, so they took the initiative to come to the door.
…
In the dead of night, all the dogs in the village were asleep, but there were some rustling sounds coming from the fence of Su's yard.
Jiang Yu, who was sleeping, was still very alert. When he heard the movement, he opened his eyes instantly. Su Chen was sleeping next to him.
Gently tugging on his sleeve, Su Chen woke up soon and was about to ask him what was wrong, but Jiang Yu told him to be quiet:
"Shh, listen carefully!"
Su Chen moved his ears, and sure enough he heard a sound in the yard, but Xiaobai didn't react at all. Logically speaking, it had been at home for several days and was already familiar with it. If something or someone entered the yard, it would It can howl twice, and it will grunt in the yard even if there is no one around, but it is surprisingly quiet tonight.
To avoid alerting the enemy, the two of them stood still for now.
Until a slight sound of footsteps approached the door of their room, it could be heard that the person coming was very cautious. If it were not a martial arts practitioner, it would not be heard at all.
People outside used smoke to burn a hole in the oil paper on the window, and then blew smoke into it.
Almost as soon as Jiang Yu smelled that little bit of smell, he immediately covered his mouth and nose, as well as Su Chen's mouth and nose.
This is low-quality incense, a very common burglary trick.
After that, the man went to the room of Su Wan and Su's father and mother.
When Jiang Yu heard that he had gone to Su Wan's place, he couldn't help but got up to catch the thief.
Su Wan slept soundly and didn't realize that there was a thief in her home. She was only half asleep when she heard a heartbreaking cry, which scared her awake.
Su's father and Su's mother also got up when they heard the noise, except for the two brothers Su Yun and Su Yi, who were caught in the smoke and were sleeping to death.
Su Wan put on her clothes, lit the kerosene lamp and came out to take a look. She saw Jiang Yu and Su Chen holding down a man's hands, and the man groaned in pain.
"Shut up, I'll kill you if I yell again!"
Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his tone was very cold and scary, and then he used strength on his hand. The man in pain simply forgot to shout about the pain.
