A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Zhichun looked around and whispered, "When the eldest young master returned home, he was first carried to the outer courtyard. Several masters of the mansion went there, and the old lady was also carried by the maids to see it in person."

"Later, we heard that the eldest young master had offended the Zhao family and had become mentally retarded, so we all dispersed."

"The old lady said that she wanted to send the young master to the farm."

Su Qingyu listened to Zhichun's detailed account of what happened. Although she felt surprised, she also knew that it was all reasonable.

My grandmother treats the younger generation in the family only by considering whether they are useful.

After Zhichun finished speaking, she saw Su Chengye walking towards her from a distance, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Then I will take my leave."

Su Chengye walked over quickly and said, "How come you two came back so suddenly without telling me in advance? I could have ordered someone to prepare some wine and food."

Su Chengye was respectful to Shen Zhixiu as always.

Su Qingyu said calmly, "We are not having dinner here. I came back to see my eldest brother."

Su Chengye's face darkened when he heard this. "That rebellious son actually caused such a big disaster. What's there to see?"

Su Qingyu knew that Su Chengye had always been cold towards his children, so she didn't explain.

She looked at Shen Zhixiu, "Then Third Master, go with father to have a cup of tea. I'll go see my eldest brother, and then we'll go back home."

Shen Zhixiu nodded and followed Su Chengye to the outer courtyard hall.

Su Qingyu took her maid to Aunt Xue's courtyard.

Before Su Yuankai appeared in the yard, Aunt Xue came out to greet him.

The moment she saw Su Qingyu, Aunt Xue fell to her knees in the yard.

"Miss, please spare Yuan Kai's life."

Su Qingyu simply didn't go in and sat down at the stone table in the yard.

"Does Auntie know what he did?"

Aunt Xue shook her head and said, "I don't know, I'm just guessing. Did they do something wrong today?"

Someone from the Zhao family just came and told her what Su Yihui and Su Yuankai had done. Aunt Xue only realized at this time that Su Yuankai had been rescued by Su Yihui. Moreover, Su Yuankai had been at the Zhao family for the past ten days.

Today is the birthday of the wife of Duke Weiguo, and Su Qingyu will definitely come to celebrate. If Su Yihui and Su Yuankai said that they did nothing to Su Qingyu, she would not believe it at all.

So today Su Yuankai is stupid and Su Yihui is under house arrest for murder, and Aunt Xue guesses that it is all related to Su Qingyu.

Hate? She no longer dared to hate.

If she had to hate someone, she could only hate herself for touching someone else's child. Aunt Xue even felt that what happened today was retribution.

She lost someone else's child, and now both of her children have a miserable end.

It may also be that she suffered losses at the hands of Su Qingyu several times, so she no longer dared to feel resentment and could only attribute her emotions to retribution.

The only thing she wanted to do now was to ask Su Qingyu to save Su Yuankai's life. Even if he was mentally retarded, he was still her son after ten months of pregnancy.

Thinking of Su Qingyu's cruelty, she panicked for a moment. Was it because Su Yuankai was not dead in the Zhao family, and she came to chase him and finish him off?

Thinking of this, Aunt Xue knelt down at Su Qingyu's feet.

"Miss, please spare the young master's life. The young master's brain is incurable and he is no different from a dead person."

"I am willing to take the young master to live in the manor and will never return to the Su family. I beg the young lady to have mercy and spare my life."

"If the young lady needs me one day, I will definitely do my best to help you."

Su Qingyu pondered and said nothing, when she suddenly heard anxious shouts coming from the back of the yard.

"Master, please don't run away. Wait for me."

Then a figure jumped out, it was Su Yuankai.

Su Yuankai held a bunch of messy wild flowers in his hand, and his face was covered with mud. The maid behind him kept calling him, but he seemed not to hear her, and ran to the front yard with a silly smile.

I don't know what tripped me, but I fell to the ground. I stuffed my dirty hands into my mouth, and the wild flowers were scattered all over the ground.

Aunt Xue burst into tears again, then squatted beside Su Yuankai, took the finger out of his mouth and helped him wipe it.

"Yuan Kai, be obedient. Your hands are dirty. Let's wash them, okay?"

A maid brought water over, and Aunt Xue helped him wash the stains off his hands. Su Yuankai patted the water in the basin with his hands, and suddenly he picked up a basin of water and poured it on Aunt Xue's head.

As the cold well water poured over her head, Aunt Xue shivered subconsciously, but she didn't say a word of complaint and gently helped Su Yuankai wipe his hands.

Su Qingyu stood up and left without saying anything.

Aunt Xue's crime of exchanging my brother was unforgivable. Death was a punishment, and so was letting her face her daughter's tragic death and her son's mental retardation for the rest of her life.

And who knows, there might come a day when her testimony will be needed.

On the second day, Aunt Xue took Su Yuankai to the Su family's dilapidated farm.

At this point, the eldest branch of the Su family no longer had a male heir. Everyone's eyes were on Aunt Zeng's pregnancy. Su Qingyu didn't say much about Aunt Zeng's pregnancy. Anyway, it wasn't the first time that her father, who didn't know what was going on, had raised a child for someone else, so there was nothing to be surprised about.

In the following month, several more things happened.

First, Su Yihui, the young lady of the Duke of Weiguo's mansion, died suddenly. The Zhao family did not hold a grand funeral ceremony, but just held the funeral hastily.

Not long after, Su Xiangling, the second daughter of the Pingning Marquis's mansion, was suddenly taken into the Eastern Palace and became the Crown Prince's concubine. Those who knew the details knew that Su Xiangling was pregnant.

Just as this incident caused some discussion in Beijing, bad news came from the northern border that Li Yunsi had died on the battlefield.

The Tartars raided the northern border town, causing numerous casualties, including Li Yunsi, his wife, and their three children.

Li Yunzhou was ordered to take over the military power of 100,000 troops in the northern border. It is said that Li's trusted generals did not agree at first and almost rebelled. However, Li Yunzhou only took three days to quell the chaos in the army.

The remains of Li Yunsi's family will also be sent back to the capital by Li Yunsi's deputy general, but it is not known when they will arrive in Beijing.

Compared with the invasion of the Tartars, Li Yunsi's death was obviously not that important. After Emperor Xuande posthumously conferred the title of General of Loyalty and Bravery on Li Yunsi, he began to pay full attention to the war situation in the northern border.

By mid-October, the capital was getting colder by the day. The sky had been cloudy for more than half a month, but not a single snowflake had fallen. Experienced old people in Beijing said that there might be a heavy snow.

Various types of charcoal, which had previously been reduced in price, also began to increase in price every day.

Because the stock of charcoal was limited, most of it was taken away by Lin Wuchen at that time, so there was not much charcoal circulating on the market.

The less there are, the more the price will rise.

Su Qingyu has been feeling uneasy these days. Her mother hasn't returned to Beijing yet, and she's worried that she'll be delayed on the road.

After a few days, Lin Wanyin finally returned to the capital from Yunzhou Prefecture, and Su Qingyu felt relieved.

On the third day after Lin Wanyin returned to Beijing, heavy snow fell.

The snow lasted for five days. After the snow stopped, the temperature in the capital dropped sharply.

There were few people on the streets, and people were all staying at home warming themselves by the fire.

In previous years, the capital city would not snow until the end of November, but this year it came a full month earlier. I heard that the Imperial Observatory was the busiest these days, and the chief and deputy envoys were often called in for questioning.

It has suddenly become cold these days. Although the ground trap is burned every day, Su Qingyu still can't adapt to the sudden cold.

Fortunately, Shen Zhixiu's body was very hot, and she unconsciously pressed close to him when she felt a little cold.

That morning, Su Qingyu came up to him again in a daze.

Her hands were on his waist, her face was pressed against his hot chest, and even her legs were crossed with his.

Shen Zhixiu's body was getting hotter and hotter, and he let out a silent sigh.

"Qingqing, why are you so excited this morning?"
