Su Rong had a conversation with Mrs. Shen and then returned to the courtyard where she lived.
Su Xingze was waiting for her in the yard where she lived. When he saw her coming back, he looked her up and down first, then breathed a sigh of relief and asked her, "How is Zhou Gu?"
Su Rong told Zhou Gu's situation again.
Su Xingze nodded, "I'll go see him later."
Su Rong nodded.
Su Xingze took out a stack of letters from his sleeve, "A letter from home to you."
Su Rong was shocked, "Why so many?"
Su Xingze sighed, "Father, mother, Mr. Xie, aunts, sisters, and Aunt Zhao Yuewan, everyone has written to you."
Su Rong: "..."
Su Xingze looked at her expression and couldn't help being amused, "Compared to you, I only have Mr. Xie and my father writing to me."
Su Rong blinked, "Then I'll give you some?"
Su Xingze laughed angrily, "It's not rare."
Seeing that it was rare for him to say this, Su Rong suddenly felt that this big pile of letters was quite sweet even if it was a burden, which made her brother feel emotional. She immediately took the pile of letters and walked towards the house.
Su Xingze followed her into the house and saw her opening the letters one by one and reading them one by one. He patiently sat aside drinking tea and waited for her to finish reading.
Su Rong read letters quickly. Even though there were many letters, it didn't take much time to read them. After reading, she divided the letters into three parts. "It's enough for my father and Uncle Xie to write one letter, and for my aunts and sisters, one letter is enough." A letter is enough, just a letter from my mother and a few sentences from Aunt Zhao and Yue Wan to let them know that I am fine."
Su Xingze was surprised, "You want to write a letter by yourself this time? Write a separate letter to your mother?"
Su Rong nodded, "Yes, mother is the great contributor to our family, so she deserves special treatment."
Su Xingze laughed, "It's true that my mother loves you the most."
Su Rong raised her eyebrows. She wanted the eldest lady to feel the preference from her daughter. After all, the aunts in the mansion now have daughters who care about them, but the eldest lady, a son and a daughter, are all in the capital now. She may not know what to think of them. Woolen cloth. The eldest lady is the most hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and she is too strong-willed. No matter how much she thinks about it, she will not say a word in the letter.
So, she instructed Su Xingze to sharpen her ink and start writing.
The eldest lady asked her in the letter, Su Xingze said that she and Zhou Gu successfully broke off their engagement, and a few days later, they actually entered into an engagement on their own? How can a marriage be so careless? He also asked Ye Guixue what he was like, his appearance and talents. Before Ye Guixue left Nanchu, she always wanted to meet someone. Should she come to Beijing, or should Ye Guixue go to Jiangning County? She also said that everything is fine at home, but now many people are coming to propose marriage to your sisters, and she is still considering it. In short, there were a lot of miscellaneous things about Lala. They were mainly concerned about whether she was doing well in the capital. He didn't mention missing her at all, but he felt uneasy between the lines.
Su Rong was very patient and replied to the letter with questions and answers. He mentioned Ye Guixue and told the person's character, appearance, talents, education, etc. in a matter-of-fact manner. He also said that he would discuss with Ye Guixue to see if it was convenient for him to go. Jiangzhou. He won't stay in the capital for long. He may leave from Jiangzhou when he returns to Nanchu. Maybe he can stop by on the way. But it's okay if she comes to the capital. She has asked Aunt Shen to choose husbands for her sisters. After her brother releases the results, if she brings her sisters to the capital, she can also come to the capital to see them, consider them carefully, and marry the best. Hopefully she will marry in the capital in the future, and she can help each other with her brother who is staying in the capital. Before she goes to Nanchu, she can make arrangements for her sisters' marriages.
Su Rong wrote a thick letter to the eldest lady, saying everything that needed to be said. After writing it, she rubbed her wrists and wrote to her father and Xie Yuan. The letter to them became more concise and more concise. It would be even simpler to write a page of paper and then write a letter to my aunts and sisters. Let the aunts stay well in Jiangzhou, let the sisters prepare, and the eldest lady will bring her to Beijing to visit her husband's family. Then she reported to Aunt Zhao and Yue Wan that they were safe, and she answered a large pile of letters in a short time.
After replying to the letter, she threw away the pen and slumped on the chair, "I'm so tired."
Replying to people was more tiring than asking her to draw a sword and fight with people.
Su Xingze was amused and handed her a cup of tea. Then he helped her seal the envelope with wax and said to her, "I will take these letters and send someone to deliver them today."
go. "
Su Rong nodded.
Su Xingze originally wanted to say a few words to her and ask her how she got along with Ye Guixue during her trip to the Great Buddha Temple, but seeing that her eye sockets were faintly blue, he knew that she was probably a little tired, so he refused. After asking more questions, he stood up and said, "Go and rest!"
Su Rong rubbed her eyes, "I don't look good. Is it really so obvious?"
Just after returning to Shen Mansion and getting off the carriage, Ye Guixue also asked her to rest quickly.
Su Xingze nodded, "It's a bit obvious."
The main reason is that her skin is fair and there are dark shadows under her eye sockets, which are particularly obvious, especially the look of exhaustion between her brows.
Su Rong nodded. She was indeed sleep deprived. After all, she had digested the contents of six rare books in her brain but could not get a good rest. She waved to Su Xingze, "Brother, go ahead. I'm going back to the house to sleep."
Su Xingze nodded and took the letter out of her yard.
Su Rong went back to his room and fell asleep directly.
When Ye Guixue returned to Chengguo Duke's Mansion, Ye Qiuying pulled his sleeve and asked him curious questions.
She raised her little face with a solemn expression, "Uncle, I heard that Sister Su Qi returned to Beijing from the Great Buddha Temple in the middle of the night and went to the Duke Protector's Mansion to treat young Master Zhou. Don’t you care too much?”
Ye Guixue pinched his face in a funny way and said warmly: "It's just an emergency to save people. Where did you think you were? Anyone who comes to her for help, and she has a prescription to reduce fever in her hand, will also save them." of."
Ye Qiuying pouted, "Uncle, don't lie to me. Is it true that anyone could make Sister Su Qi go to Beijing to rescue her in the middle of the night, risking several assassination attempts? I But I heard someone said that when she entered the capital, she was covered in blood, and she rushed straight to the Protector's Mansion without wasting a moment."
Ye Guixue frowned, "Who is talking nonsense in front of you?"
Ye Qiuying immediately shut up.
Ye Guixue lowered her eyebrows coldly and said, "Say."
Ye Qiuying lowered her head, "Little uncle, no one is gossiping in front of me. I heard it myself. People in the house have spread the news. Everyone is talking about it."
Ye Guixue frowned, "Earlier, I only knew that the Chengguo Palace was a mess, like a pot of porridge. After living here for a few days, there were indeed many irregularities, which was bearable. But now it seems that I am just If you are not in this house for a day, the environment in this house will make you forget the rules and listen to what others say. If this continues, it will be difficult to stay for a long time."
He looked at Ye Qiuying and said, "When I leave Daliang, I will try to find a way to properly place you. You will no longer be able to live in this house."
Ye Qiuying apologized guiltily, "Uncle, I'm sorry."
Ye Guixue touched her head and said, "You are still young, so it is understandable that you are affected by rumors for a while. But Qiuying, my uncle tells you that a wise man can distinguish right from wrong, not by listening to what others say."
Ye Qiuying bit her lip and nodded, "Uncle, I was wrong."
Ye Guixue picked her up and put her on a chair. He also sat down and faced her face to face. He told her what happened in the past two days when he and Su Rong went to the Great Buddha Temple and other things, except that Su Rong and Fengling sneaked into the book collection. He told her everything except the matter of the pavilion, and he didn't fool her because she was a child. After he finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qiuying and asked: "Miss Su Qi always asks my uncle about everything she does. She did it with my consent. As a princess, she didn't have to consult me on everything. She could just make her own decisions. She was also a very independent person, and her uncle would definitely not stop her, but Because she was with me, she respected me and asked my opinion. Not only that, she also explained the reasons to me when it came to Mr. Thursday. It is very rare for her to be able to do this. At least my uncle is very grateful. She can treat me like this. So, Qiu Ying, no matter what people say outside, in my heart, she has done nothing wrong. You can never listen to other people's words and make random speculations and evaluations about her in the future."
Ye Qiuying nodded heavily, "Uncle, I understand, I will never do it again, there will be no next time." She whispered: "I actually think Sister Su Qi is very good."
Ye Guixue smiled, "Yes, she is very good. Anyone with a discerning eye can see her goodness."
