When Su Qingyu arrived, Su Yihui had already arrived. When she saw her come in, she stood up and bowed.

Su Yihui is fourteen years old. She is Su Yuankai’s biological sister and Aunt Xue’s daughter.

She wore a crimson coat and skirt embroidered with rhombus patterns, and had a golden hairpin on her bun, which made people look forward to her appearance.

Mrs. Su has two legitimate sons, one concubine, and six daughters from three families. Su Yihui's manners are the most dignified, and her aura is more dignified than Su Qingyu, the legitimate daughter.

Su Yihui's background was not as good as Su Qingyu's, so she could only work hard elsewhere. Su Yihui tries her best to do her best in playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and knitting.

If it was just like this, Su Qingyu wouldn't think anything of it, but Su Yihui regarded her as an imaginary enemy and tried to suppress her in everything to prove that she, the legitimate daughter, only had an empty name.

Just like this moment, Su Yihui looked at Su Qingyu's light blue coat and skirt embroidered with lotus petals and branch patterns, and said, "This lotus leaf embroidery is really good. Did the eldest sister embroider it herself?"

Su Qingyu twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "No."

Su Yihui looked down at her coat and skirt again, "I embroidered this myself, what do you think, big sister?"

Su Qingyu forced out a faint smile and said, "Has our mansion become so poor that the young ladies have to do their own embroidery? If everyone is like Third Sister, there will be no work for needlework people."

Before Su Yihui could say anything else, a maid brought in the fourth young lady, Su Shunci.

Su Shunci is Aunt Lian's daughter. She is twelve years old this year. She has a baby face with two small dimples on her cheeks. Her smile is particularly attractive.

Aunt Lian was Lin's maid in the past. Even if her aunt was raised, she still respected Lin very much and taught her daughter to be sensible and polite.

Su Shunci came in and greeted Su Qingyu and Su Yihui first, "Hello, eldest sister, hello third sister."

Su Yihui snorted, obviously not looking down on this cautious sister.

Su Qingyu walked forward, pinched Su Shunci's cheek, and said with a smile, "Hello, Fourth Sister."

Before her mother passed away in her previous life, Aunt Lian had always taken care of her closely, and she never took off her clothes. After her mother passed away, the household affairs of the mansion were managed by the old lady, but most of the specific affairs were handled by Gu Ruoyun.

Before she was killed, the Su family's business outside had plummeted and they urgently needed outside help, so they arranged a marriage for Su Shunci. It was Fang Yan, the second son of the merchant Fang family. But Fang Yan was a fool and married Su Shunci just to stay in the family. back.

Since God had given her a chance to be reborn, she had to keep this concubine safe for the rest of her life and repay Aunt Lian for taking care of her mother in her previous life.

"You are all here, sit down." The old lady's voice sounded, and Su Qingyu was brought back from her messy thoughts.

Turning to look at the door, Su Yuankai was helping the old lady come in. The sisters greeted the old lady and sat down according to their elders after the old lady sat down.

The food was already on the table. The old lady was a Buddhist and ate vegetarian meals three times a day. The small kitchen of Songhe Hall specially hired two chefs to cook vegetarian food.

In the middle of the nanmu round table is a plate of Duofu Duoshou fish, which is made of tofu, day lily, and bamboo shoots in the shape of the fish, with sauce poured on it.

There are also four other side dishes: ginger-flavored bamboo shoots, mushroom casserole, three-shredded rolls and stir-fried ginkgo nuts, and a bowl of yam soup for each person.

The whole set of cloisonné porcelain plates with lotus patterns, paired with refreshing and exquisite side dishes, is pleasing to the eye even before you eat it.

The five grandfathers and grandsons sat down to have lunch. The whole flower hall was quiet. The girls and young men were all polite and polite while eating, and there was no sound at all.

After the old lady finished eating, the junior also put down his chopsticks.

A maid came forward to help the masters rinse their mouths and serve tea.

After eating, they moved to the side to drink tea. Su Qingyu said: "Grandma, tomorrow I will go to Huguo Temple to perform the seventh ritual for Mr. Shen."

Without even thinking about it, the old lady said, "Go ahead. Madam Shen will be happy to know that you are so dedicated."

Su Qingyu lowered her eyes and said nothing. In her previous life, she did not believe in ghosts and gods, and finally discovered that people can also turn into evil spirits. In this new life, she only acts based on her heart. Keeping filial piety to Mr. Shen was just what she should do in her position. As for whether the Shen family knew about it, she didn't care.

When Su Yuankai heard that Su Qingyu was going to Huguo Temple, his mind moved and he spoke.

"Grandma, why don't you let your cousin go with you to relax? I went to see her in the morning and my eyes were swollen from crying."

The old lady waved her hand and said, "Let her go and think about it at home. After such a big incident, she is not suitable to go out and walk around."

Su Yuankai didn't say anything after hearing this, but quietly said something to Su Yihui.

Su Yihui frowned at first, then relaxed her eyes a little later, and said with a sweet smile: "Grandma, I copied the scriptures for my grandmother a few days ago and prayed for her, and I will go to the Huguo Temple with my eldest sister tomorrow to worship her."

Upon hearing this, the old lady looked at Su Yihui with admiration and said, "I know you are a filial girl, so please take some good people with you so that you don't get hit."

Su Qingyu saw the little actions of the brothers and sisters. After her rebirth, she changed, and everything also changed. In this life, she had to be very alert and see what the monsters and monsters around her did.

After having lunch and returning to Bishui Pavilion, Su Qingyu took up a pen and made a list of the required sacrifices, and asked Pearl and others to prepare according to what she wrote.

Since we were going to the temple, we only prepared plain snacks and a few fruits as sacrifices.

In her previous life, she accompanied Mrs. Shen's family to Huguo Temple to perform rituals for Mr. Shen. Mrs. Shen prepared everything that Mr. Shen liked during his lifetime, so she prepared accordingly.

Then he told Pearl: "Go and tell the stewards to prepare the account books for the past three months and wait for me to look at them when I come back from Huguo Temple."

Looking at the account books is the fastest way to take over these things.

Su Qingyu spent the entire afternoon copying the "Purana Sutra". The copied scriptures were placed together with the sacrifices, and they would be enshrined in front of the Buddha tomorrow.

Su Qingyu got up early the next day, wearing a plain coat and skirt, and a Sichuan brocade cloak trimmed with snow fox patterns.

The personal attendant only brought pearls and emeralds, and two rough envoys.

She went to pay her respects to the old lady first, and then got into the carriage with Su Yihui. The maidservant also got into the other two carriages with incense and candle offerings.

Huguo Temple is located on Jingshan Mountain in the western suburbs of the capital. Because it is very popular, the road up the mountain is wide and straight, so it is very convenient for horse-drawn carriages to pass through.

Su Qingyu gathered her cloak after sitting down, hugging the heater and closing her eyes to rest.

Before the carriage left the Su family's gate, Su Yihui sighed and said, "If my eldest sister marries a dead man, my grandmother may not treat you as well as before."

Although it has a hint of regret, no matter how you listen to it, it sounds more like schadenfreude.
