In the main hall of the Su Mansion, candlelight flickered and no sound was heard.

The old lady sat on the main seat, twirling the beads in her hand, took the hot tea from Su Changqing, pointed to the seat opposite, and asked him to sit down.

"What's wrong with you today? Are you taking it out on girl Yun when you're upset?"

Su Changqing lowered his eyebrows, half of his face was hidden in the candlelight, and his eyes were obscure.

"Mother, I don't want them to live in shame again and again. Brother Zhong and Yuqing are hundreds of times better than these two in the family, but they can't even be listed in the family tree! They don't have any serious status!"

Su Changqing spoke angrily, and said slowly as if discussing: "Mother, I don't think it's better..."

"shut up!"

The old lady put the tea cup on the table to stop his confused words.

"Right now, the Sun family is still in power, and you promised the emperor that you would only have one person in your life, and then you rashly brought him into the Su Mansion. Do you think a big disaster will happen to the family?"

Su Changqing was raising a wife outside and had a son and a daughter.

The old lady only found out about this matter in the past two years, and she lost her temper because of it. She was worried for a long time, for fear that the matter would be exposed.

Fortunately, Sun Jiarou is a calm person and has never doubted anything.

"Mother!"

Su Changqing looked annoyed and leaned back on the chair dejectedly. Brother Zhong was already eighteen years old and had already entered the clan school, but now he could only hang out in a private school.

At noon, Yueniang cried with him, saying that she was afraid of delaying Brother Zhong's future.

Su Changqing felt uncomfortable, so she vented her anger just now.

"Their mother-in-law's affairs should be slow down for now. The Sun family must be able to get by."

The old lady was twirling the beads with a calm expression on her face. Having more children means more blessings. The children of her Su family cannot be left outside.

"The Sun family, ever since I married their daughter, I have looked at their faces everywhere. One day I will trample them all under my feet!"

Su Changqing slapped the armrest of the chair hard, his eyebrows full of intrigue and calculation.

The night was dark, the moon's shadow hung high in the sky, and the dead leaves were swirling and falling.

The lights were brightly lit in Chaohua Xiaozhu. Su Leyun was sitting behind the desk, holding a pen in his hand and carefully writing the rules of etiquette, accompanied by lotus hearts and green willows.

"Miss, please take a rest before writing."

"It's late at night, you can write it tomorrow."

Su Leyun raised his head and looked out the slightly white window, stretched his muscles and bones, turned his wrist and said, "I'm just a little short of finishing."

After writing it, she felt relieved, saving her good father from using the topic again.

"You guys go down and rest first."

Su Leyun picked up the pen and continued writing on the paper, with a faint cyan color in his eyes and a slightly tired look.

"The master has not rested, how can the slaves rest?"

Lian Xin cut the candle core with a smile to make it brighter. Cui Liu spread new rice paper on the table and brought hot tea over.

There was more noise, a few cock crows, and the sky was bright.

Su Leyun stroked his sore neck, put down his pen, gathered the copied etiquette together, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master has finished writing. Go and lie down on the bed for a while. I will send this to the Marquis."

Lian Xin took the arranged transcripts and put them on the tray, holding them carefully.

"That's all, I'll send it myself."

Su Leyun held a thick pile of transcripts, straightened his somewhat disheveled hair, and walked out slowly.

"Let's go, I'm afraid my father will go to court later."

When they moved to the main hall, Su Changqing was changing into court clothes. Although Sun Jiarou was angry with him, she still stayed with him and took the accessories from the slave's hand and put them on for him.

"Father."

Su Leyun walked in slowly, saluted, and gave Sun Jiarou a distressed look.

Su Changqing has been an official in the court for twenty years, and Sun Jiarou has been waiting for him in court for twenty years.

It's a pity that he is a cruel man. He doesn't care about the support of his father-in-law's family. He only cares about his concubine. He even spoils his concubine and kills his wife. He takes the title of his legitimate son and gives it to his concubine...

"Yun'er, it's cold outside and it's still early. Why are you here?"

Sun Jiarou handed the hand stove to her, feeling heartbroken when she saw the dark green eyes in her daughter's eyes.

Su Leyun did not take over the stove, but shook his head to indicate that he was fine. He walked to Su Changqing and handed over the copied etiquette, saying respectfully: "Father, this is the etiquette copied by my daughter."

Su Changqing lowered his eyes and looked at Juan Xiu's handwriting on the paper, his face softened slightly: "You copied it all night?"

"Yes, my daughter realizes her mistake."

Su Leyun held up the copy with both hands, his watery eyes were covered with red bloodshot eyes, full of exhaustion.

Su Changqing felt a little soft in her heart when she looked at the pair of eyes that were the same as Sun Jiarou's and the face that resembled her own.

"Get up, forget what happened yesterday, just learn the rules from now on."

Su Changqing asked the servant to collect the transcripts and strode out.

This daughter has the favor of King Jin and is of use.

"Have breakfast with your mother later and then go back and rest."

Su Changqing stopped at the door, his usually cold voice a little softer.

After hearing this, Sun Jiarou's tense face relaxed. She held Su Leyun's hand and said, "Your father still loves you."

After saying that, Sun Jiarou said to Nanny Zhang: "Go and reply to the old lady. Just tell her that the Marquis has asked the young lady to go back and have a rest. I won't go to pay my respects today."

Nanny Zhang left in response, and then turned back when she went out, and the boy at the door came in in a panic.

"Madam, someone is coming from the palace!"

"Why panic? Just invite people in."

As soon as he finished speaking, a big eunuch wearing palace clothes entered the door.

"Old slave, please give your regards to Mrs. Hou."

"Eunuch Chen, please get up quickly."

Sun Jiarou asked the little girl to help him up, and said slowly: "I wonder what your father-in-law wants to do here?"

The old lady heard the news in the back house and rushed over, followed by Su Waner.

"Eunuch Chen, I haven't seen you in a while."

Eunuch Chen laughed along with him: "Isn't that right? Since the queen left, the servant has been serving Princess Anle. It has been a while since I have been serving at the front."

Suddenly hearing the name Princess Anle again, the old lady glanced at Su Leyun with an unkind expression.

I thought there was a decree coming from the palace, but I never thought that Princess Anle came to investigate!

"Yesterday, my worthless granddaughter offended Her Highness the Princess. I have already punished her by copying the etiquette a hundred times. If the Princess is still unhappy, I will bring this rebellious girl to the palace to teach her a lesson."

The old lady spoke respectfully and had no intention of protecting Su Leyun.

Su Leyun was not surprised at all after hearing this. Her grandmother was like this in her previous life. She would push herself out to block the gun if she made any mistakes.

Sun Jiarou frowned, and just as she was about to explain to her daughter, she heard Eunuch Chen say with a puzzled look on his face: "What are you talking about, the old lady? Our princess has the most docile temperament, so there is no way she would argue with Miss Su Er."

As he spoke, he took out a post with gold plum blossoms from his arms and handed it to Sun Jiarou.

"The princess will hold a plum blossom banquet in the palace tomorrow. She specially asked the servants to send invitations to invite the madam and ladies to come and enjoy the flowers and have wine."

After the words fell, everyone was shocked, and the old lady couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

This Princess Anle is really skillful. Su Leyun just offended her yesterday, but today she sent an invitation instead.
