The charming girl

Chapter 2
It was almost dawn, and many people gathered at the door of the First General's Mansion in Shengjing.

The beautiful woman clustered in the center is dressed in a gorgeous dress, with a golden bun with rubies embedded in her hair. Although she has passed her thirties, she is still charming and charming when looking at her.

The beautiful woman Jiang was followed by two young women, one of whom was slimmer, wearing a simple and elegant autumn-colored skirt, with a beautiful face, and her gestures were full of bookishness.The other one is much plumper, has a pair of crescent-shaped willow eyebrows, smiles to herself without bending her lips, and looks very kind and elegant.

These two are the wives of Su Yufeng and Su Yulu, the Song family and the Lin family.

I don't know how long I waited, but finally I saw a carriage covered with floral brocade coming steadily from the corner.

There were tasseled bells hanging from the four corners of the carriage, and as the carriage swayed, it made a crisp knocking sound from time to time.

Seeing the familiar decoration, the mother-in-law beside Jiang said hurriedly: "The lady must be back."

Jiang's face was filled with joy and she hurriedly greeted him.Seeing their mother-in-law moving, Ms. Song and Ms. Lin immediately followed her.

The boy on the horse reined in the reins and stopped firmly in front of Jiang.

The door curtain was lifted, and the first people to come out were the maids Fuqiu and Zangdong.

Then he stretched out a Rouyi that was as delicate as fine white porcelain, supported the two maids, and slowly got out of the carriage with the skirts in hand.

Su Yuyi was wearing a fine lotus-colored crimson gauze today, which made her skin as white as snow. She had a coral white hosta embedded with rubies in her bun. Her face was very similar to Jiang's, and she was gorgeous. And noble.

The Xie family is not far from the General's Mansion, but the capital has its own rules. As a woman who has left the court, Su Yuyi cannot run to her parents' house when she has nothing to do. What's more, the Su family and Xie Shiyan are both in charge of affairs in the court, let alone Lose your dignity easily.

When mother and daughter met, Mrs. Jiang took her hand and looked around affectionately. Before she could say anything, Mrs. Lin joked from the side: "Ever since we got off the boat yesterday, my mother has been thinking about finding a reason." I'm going to find Ah Yi, and finally I've got someone waiting for me. If I don't come, my mother will be lovesick."

Lin was born in the Marquis of Jing'an, and was the youngest legitimate daughter of the Marquis. She had been pampered in every way since she was a child. She always loved to joke and had no bad intentions.

Su Yuyi knew her character, and when the two met again, she couldn't help but feel sore at the corners of her eyes at these words, "What the second sister-in-law said is that I also care about my mother very much."

"Brothers and sisters, don't talk nonsense. Ah Yi caught a cold a while ago. My mother was worried about her since she went to Ruzhou to visit her relatives. Now that Ah Yi is back, I will take a good rest for two days. I watched the cold pass. Ah, my mood seems to have diminished a bit."

The Song family was born in a Qingliu family, and she was the daughter of the Taishi of the current dynasty. Although she was not as good as the Lin family in terms of family background, her magnanimity as the eldest sister-in-law was not diminished. Even if she preached seriously, she would not be annoying.

Mrs. Lin was already used to her eldest sister-in-law's temper, so she just pursed her lips and smiled.

Only Jiang, after being reminded by Song, her eyebrows twisted up unconsciously.

"Ah Yi, why did you catch the wind and cold even though you were so young, and you have lost so much weight? Is it because the maid next to you is being lazy? Or is that boy Xie Shiyan neglecting you in the house?"

Hearing her mother's familiar voice of concern, Su Yuyi felt as if she was in another world.

At least at this moment, she didn't want to mention that person who was ruining the scenery.

"Mom, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, it's cold outside, don't blow your mind, let's go in and talk."

Su Yuyi hugged Jiang's arm coquettishly and shook her. Jiang remembered her appearance before leaving the cabinet, and her heart softened, and she said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, mother, I will listen to you."

After entering the house, Mrs. Song thought that mother and daughter had not seen each other for several months and they must have a lot of personal things to say, so she decided to let Su Yuyi go to the room to rest first, while she and Mrs. Lin went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Su Yuyi lived in a courtyard in Xiyuan before leaving the pavilion. Because she liked flowers, the garden was filled with all kinds of flower seeds, many of which were treasures specially found for her by General Su.

Although she doesn't come back often now, the yard has always been carefully taken care of, and the placement of items is no different from usual.

The mother and daughter sat down on the soft stool. As expected, Jiang took Su Yuyi and asked her concernedly. They talked about their family's personal problems for a long time. Su Yuyi nodded in agreement from time to time, which was very warm.

About half an hour later, Jiang stood up unexpectedly.

"Oh, I heard you were coming last night. Mom had ordered people to make your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and various fruits early in the morning. Those cooks are rough and they don't know what happened. Mom, go take a look first. , Ah Yi, you have a rest here first."

The tip of her nose was filled with the fragrant and refreshing fragrance of flowers, and her mother's gentle voice was in her ears. This was the best moment Su Yuyi had felt since her rebirth.

She blinked at Jiang, "Mom, you have to come back soon, don't keep me waiting." After her mother left, she found a place on the swing under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and sat down, closed her eyes slightly, and The white calves were like freshly peeled spring bamboo shoots, dangling in the Luo shirt.

In the autumn, I broke off a sprig of sweet-scented osmanthus and put it on Su Yuyi's temple. The small beige flowers were in clusters, and the sweet smell penetrated directly into the tip of her nose.

I woke up early today and felt tired before I knew it. Su Yuyi picked up a book at random, feeling sleepy coming over me again and again.

She didn't have to worry about anything at home, so she let Zangdong help her go to her room to rest.

He slept lightly, and it didn't take long for General Su to go to court.

Half asleep and half awake, I heard my father's voice like a bell getting closer and closer.

"Ayi is really here? Has she been waiting for a long time? But is she clamoring to see daddy?"

Su Yuyi curled her lips.

Zangdong had already trotted over, "Miss, the master is here and waiting outside."

Su Yuyi stood up, straightened her clothes and hair, and then walked out from behind the screen.

"Dad, I miss you and my mother-in-law."

Old General Su was impatient and had been lingering in front of the door for a long time. If he hadn't been thinking about his daughter as his best friend, he would have been unable to restrain his longing for her.

Seeing his daughter come out, General Su laughed heartily, "Oh, you little heartless kid, you finally remembered me, old man."

Just smiling, General Su frowned with his thick eyebrows. Like his wife Jiang, he also noticed that Su Yuyi's face was different from usual.

My daughter's hibiscus face has been pampered by the General's Palace for many years. She used to be bright and flamboyant, but now she is enveloped in a touch of melancholy!

"Ah Yi, tell daddy, did that boy Xie Shiyan bully you?"

Old General Su has been on the battlefield for many years, and he can scare people out of fear with just a twitch of his beard.Thinking of his precious daughter being bullied, not only his beard but also his lips trembled, as if he was about to pick up a spear and kill Xie Shiyan in the next second!
Speaking of Su Yuyi, it is true that she is pretending, but it is also true that she has never been able to hide her thoughts.

If she could really kill Xie Shiyan, she would have to do it herself. Those bastards were not worthy of dirtying her father's hands.

But Xie Shiyan was still a fifth-rank general and still had an official rank. Even if General Su had a much higher rank than him, he couldn't be so presumptuous towards ministers of the same dynasty.

She never questioned her father's love for her, but if she did, the Su family would be finished, and the careers of her two brothers would probably come to an end.

Su Yu wanted his father to help him vent his anger, but not to this extent.

"Ah, come and try the shortbread and fruit that grandma asked the kitchen to make. In the past, you loved eating these the most. They are still warm." Mrs. Jiang happened to come from the kitchen and picked up a small piece of sweet-scented osmanthus shortbread and handed it to her. On my daughter's lips.

Before getting married, Jiang always doted on her like this.

Su Yuyi opened her mouth to take it, and the elegant sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance quickly spread on the tip of her tongue. The shortbread was sweet but not greasy, and melted in the mouth. It was obvious that a lot of effort had been put into it.

Jiang asked the maid to bring her favorite milk mixed with Longjing tea to relieve her fever.

Seeing that her mother was about to feed her fruit again, Su Yuyi thought of business and hurriedly pressed her mother down, then pulled her father over and made the two of them sit on the chairs.

"Dad, mother, when I come back this time, I have something important to discuss with you."

Ever since Su Yuyi was born, the couple had often seen her spoiled and spoiled, and they had never seen their daughter look so serious.The two looked at each other and had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Sure enough, the next moment, Su Yuyi said word by word: "Father, mother, I want to make peace with Xie Shiyan."
