The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 37 The shoes

 In the study room, the candles are bright.

Su Changqing was sitting at the table with documents on the case, seeming to be dealing with things.

Mother Li put the soup bowl on the desk and said, "Master Hou, my wife is afraid that you will be tired from working at night, so I specially made this bowl of soup. You can drink it while it's hot."

“I know, I’ll drink it after it cools down a bit.”

Su Changqing didn't even look at the soup, waving the wolf hair in his hand.

Saw this indifferent look, Grandma Li became even more dissatisfied with Madam.

 “The old slave resigned.”

With the help of candlelight, Nanny Li lowered her head and stepped back.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Su Changqing's shoes.

It is embroidered with bamboo.

 The stitching technique is flexible and the embroidery work is meticulous, which is the technique of Su embroidery.

Li Yan was shocked, lest he looked wrong by himself, and couldn't help but take a little bit.

“What else can I do, mama?”

Su Changqing raised his eyes and saw that Grandma Li had not left yet, her tone was unhappy.

Without changing her expression, Grandma Li took a step forward, her eyes fixed on Su Changqing's shoes, and said: "Master Marquis, I shouldn't have said these words, but these days, you and your wife always have conflicts. Madam is often sad about this and has lost a lot of weight. Madam is also worried about whether you have any problems with your official duties, and wants to ask her mother-in-law to help. "

Su Changqing's expression changed when she heard the word "mother's family".

There was a dark look in his eyes, and his tone softened a bit: "I am the one who has made Madam worried. The yamen does have some urgent matters, but there is no need to trouble my husband and the others. I will naturally explain it to Madam after I have finished what I am doing. .”

 “Then the old slave will be relieved.”

Mother Li's voice became colder and colder, but on this winter night, Su Changqing didn't notice at all.

After Grandma Li left the study, Su Changqing stared at the pen and ink on the table. Unable to suppress the anger in her heart for a while, she raised her hand and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

 The boy outside the door was startled, "Master Marquis, what happened?"

"…fine!"

Su Changqing's face was gloomy. Why couldn't he hear what Granny Li just said? How dare a servant threaten him with the Sun Mansion?

 Over the years, he has been ridiculed everywhere. He relied on the Sun family to rise to the top.

Even the Sun family looked down upon him.

 He has had enough!

The Sun family is now in the sunset, how can it be compared with him, a Marquis who is at the peak of his power!

 After a long time, Su Changqing gradually calmed down.

Looking at the mess on the ground, he smiled coldly. Sooner or later, he will definitely make everyone in the Sun family kneel at his feet!

 “Comer.”

 “Master Hou.”

 The boy ran in, looked at the situation in the study, his heart trembled, and he knelt on the ground.

 “Take care of this place.”

Su Changqing stood up and waved his sleeves. Just as he was about to leave, he remembered something and turned back to pick up the soup bowl on the desk.

The boy lowered his head and was sorting things on the ground. From the corner of his eye, he saw outside the house. The soup in the bowl fell into the grass like a waterfall and disappeared.

 He shook his body and did not dare to look again.

Mama Li returned to Huairou Pavilion worriedly.

Looking up at the inscription on the door, she still remembered that it was handwritten by Su Hou and his own lady when they got married.

 But now, things have changed and people have changed.

“Mommy, what are you doing standing here?”

 A maid saw Grandma Li's movements and asked curiously.

Mama Li looked away and asked, "Is Madam asleep?"

"Go to bed early. Madam may be too tired these days and fall asleep as soon as she closes her eyes."

"Um."

Mama Li returned to her room, tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep.

 With your eyes closed, you can see the shoes made of Su embroidery on Su Hou’s feet.

Her young lady studied with a famous embroidery master in Beijing in her early years, and was praised by the Queen Mother for her Bian embroidery skills. After marrying Su Hou, she sewed Su Hou's clothes and shoes, and never used her own hands to sew clothes for Su Hou.

Those shoes were clearly not made by the lady!

 If the lady didn’t make it, then who could it be?

Mama Li’s mind was heavy and she tossed and turned for a long time. She didn’t want to think about that terrible possibility.

The sun slowly emerged, and Huairou Pavilion became busy.

In the room, Sun Jiarou saw the black eyes under the eyes of Grandma Li and asked with concern: "Mammy, what's wrong with you?"

"ah?"

Mother Li was stunned for a moment, then she realized what she was doing.

 “Madam, there’s nothing wrong with the old slave.”

“Mommy, do you think there’s nothing wrong with you? You can go back and rest, as long as Hongyu and the others are here.”

Seeing that Sun Jiarou was determined, Grandma Li did not refuse anymore.

 Just couldn't sit still after returning to the house. After all, he got up and left Huairou Pavilion and walked towards the embroidery room in the mansion.
