The charming girl

Xie Shiyan frowned a little, "Besides this, is there nothing else you want to say to me?"

These words stopped Su Yuyi.

In this house, isn't the thing he cares most about is the gift of thanksgiving?

She was willing to help him take care of Xie Shuli, what else did he want to hear?
Su Yuyi's eyes were full of doubts, and she was about to continue asking Xie Shiyan, but at this moment, the curtain was opened, and Zangdong's voice came from the door.

"Miss, someone is here from the General's Mansion."

Su Yuyi was slightly surprised, "Who is here?"

It's already dark now. Is there something wrong with your parents sending someone over so late?
Zangdong replied: "It's Mrs. Zhao next to Madam."

"Come in quickly." Su Yuyi quickly stood up and took a few steps forward past Xie Shiyan.

At Zangdong's nod, an elderly woman walked in. Although she was dressed simply, she had a good temperament, and she was followed by two little maids.

Seeing Su Yuyi, Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "Miss."

"Come and sit down, isn't it very cold on this road?" Su Yuyi was raised by her mother, and Mrs. Zhao also watched her grow up, so when she saw her, she felt very close to her.

Mrs. Zhao said politely, "I just thought about coming to deliver a message to the lady, so I don't feel cold anymore."

Su Yuyi glanced out the window and said, "Come here, bring me a cup of hot tea."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone walked over quickly and handed Mrs. Zhao a cup of hot tea.

Mrs. Zhao raised her hand to thank her, and was about to speak when the corner of her eye suddenly glanced in Xie Shiyan's direction, and she hesitated several times.

This is inconvenient for him to hear.

Su Yuyi came over understandingly, looked at Xie Shiyan and said, "If you have nothing else to do, go back and rest first. Mother Zhao and I have something to say."

Xie Shiyan glanced at Su Yuyi, his eyes seemed to contain deep meaning, but in the end he left without saying a word.

As he left, there was a slight closing sound at the door.

As soon as she left, Su Yuyi arrived in front of Mrs. Zhao and asked, "Mother Zhao, are you here so late? Does your mother have anything to do with me?"

Mrs. Zhao nodded, her expression looking extremely solemn.

"In two days, the general will go to Jidu with my uncle. You should already know this, right?"

"Yeah." Su Yuyi was a little unhappy.

Life and death on the battlefield are uncertain, and her father is getting older, so she actually doesn't really want to let him go.

It's just that the world is at his feet, and his father is an important minister of the imperial court, so he really has no control over many things.

"Miss, my wife and the general have always kept in mind the reconciliation between you and my uncle."

Mrs. Zhao said and sighed deeply, "These days, Madam is so worried about this matter that she can't eat."

Su Yuyi's heart twisted.

She knew that her parents might be upset about this matter, but when she heard from Mrs. Zhao that her mother was so sad about her affairs, she felt a little guilty and uneasy.

But the outcome between her and Xie Shiyan was already doomed.

Mrs. Zhao looked at Su Yuyi, her eyes full of distress and regret, "Miss, Madam has given birth to so many children, and you are the one who feels the most distressed. You don't have to feel guilty about Madam. Marriage is a major event in a lifetime. Parents naturally hope that their children's marriages will be harmonious, and it will take some time for Madam to digest this matter."

Su Yuyi bit her lower lip slightly, "It's all my fault. You're so old and you still have to worry about my affairs."

Mrs. Zhao shook her head, "Originally, the general was determined to call my uncle and you over in the next few days, sign the letter of departure, and then let you move back to the mansion." In an instant, Su Yuyi's heart skipped a beat. .

But then, Mrs. Zhao said again: "But in recent days, the general has been busy in the military camp every day, and my uncle is also busy preparing to train the soldiers and prepare food and grass for the road. This time, I’m afraid this matter will have to be postponed for a while.”

Su Yuyi listened quietly and didn't say anything else this time.

Compared with the love between his own children, family and country affairs are naturally much more important.

The matter of peace and separation can be brought up at any time. The most urgent thing at the moment is to let the father go to war with peace of mind.

She was silent for a while, then nodded, "I know, mom, please don't worry."

After a pause, he added: "I will go back to my hometown in person tomorrow and make it clear to my parents."

Mrs. Zhao's eyes showed some relief, "Miss, you have really changed. You have become much more sensible and considerate."

Su Yuyi forced a smile and agreed.

Now that the words have been brought, Mrs. Zhao is not inconvenient to stay any longer. She just said: "It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

Su Yuyi said lightly, "It's easy to go, Mother Zhao."

Then he asked Shi Chun and Zhai Xia to send Mrs. Zhao to the door of the house.

After a short while, the two came back.

Shichun looked at Su Yuyi several times, as if he had something to say, but he didn't know how to say it.

Su Yuyi took some time to read and play with a book of stories. The densely packed fonts looked like ants under the light, making people feel sleepy.

When he was about to take a nap, he glanced at Shi Chun from the corner of his eye.

Su Yuyi pressed her eyes and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Shichun thought for a while and then said: "Miss, when Zhan Xia and I came over just now, we saw my uncle standing alone by the edge of the pool. We didn't know what he was doing."

Zhai Xia rubbed his hands and exhaled: "It's still quite cold outside. It would be bad if you catch a cold if you stay there for a few hours."

The two looked at each other, and Zhai Xia asked carefully and tentatively: "How about, Miss, you go over and take a look?"

Su Yuyi glanced at the two of them, "If you are worried about him, why don't you just let him go back to his room? For such an old man, don't you know how to go back and warm yourself when it gets cold?"

Zhi Xia was speechless and looked at Shi Chun.

Shichun shook his head slightly, obviously helpless.

Zhai Xia couldn't help but said: "Actually, there may be a misunderstanding between my uncle and Mrs. Shen. My uncle doesn't look like that kind of person."

These days, Su Yuyi has been wary of the two of them, and the maids in the courtyard are also secretly observing the two of them.

But Xie Shiyan, apart from being particularly considerate of Xie Shuli, didn't seem to care much about Shen Xiulan.

In fact, the look in her eyes now turned into disgust.

But Zhi Xia usually didn't dare to say these words, but now he just mustered up the courage to speak his thoughts to Su Yuyi.

Su Yuyi frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashed in her heart.

Seeing this, Shi Chun quickly pinched Zhi Xia gently and said, "Miss, you have your own decision. When will it be your turn to make the decision? The charcoal fire in the room is almost gone. Go and pick up some more silver bone charcoal."

Zhai Xia sighed softly and walked out.
