Chapter 49 My aunt is coming back

Outside the house, Nanny Zhang, who was a little late, heard the movement inside the house, turned around, and hurried to Huairou Pavilion.

 Inside the house, the heat from the earth dragon could not warm the ice on the old lady's face.

“You sew it with your own hands? How can you sew such embroidery in just a few days?”

The old lady pounded the crutch in her hand, "Maybe you think I'm old and think I'm easy to deceive?"

"Grandma, please calm down." Su Waner looked at Su Leyun anxiously, "Sister Yun'er, please apologize to grandma quickly. It's just a sachet. You can't lie and deceive grandma like this."

Su Leyun looked at the old lady intently and said after a while: "Grandma, although Yun'er has not gone to school for a few days and is not very literate, she also knows not to lie, let alone take credit for other people's achievements. This The sachet is made by Yun'er stitch by stitch, and both Lian Xin and Cui Liu can testify to Yun'er."

Lianxin and Cuiliu also knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Old madam, this sachet was indeed sewn by the second lady herself."

“Grandma, Lian Xin and Cuiliu are both sister Yun’er’s personal maids, and they have been following sister Yun’er. Maybe they know this.”

Su Waner seemed to be speaking for Su Leyun, but in fact, her words had another meaning.

Since she is Su Leyun's personal maid, it is possible for her to help her master lie.

 The old lady closed her eyes and suddenly let out a sigh.

"When you came back from Jingzhou, I thought about the suffering you suffered in the past, and I didn't dare to be too harsh on you. I also interceded with your father on your behalf about Princess Anle before, but this time, you really let your grandmother down."

 “Mother Zhao, go and ask for help from the family.”

 “Grandma!”

Su Waner was surprised, but there was pride in her eyes.

Su Leyun knelt on the ground. Even though she had known that the old lady was not happy with her partiality, she still felt cold all over.

She was about to speak when she heard Sun Jiarou's sharp voice.

 “Mother-in-law!”

Mammy Zhang opened the curtain, and Sun Jiarou walked in hurriedly.

 Seeing Su Leyun kneeling on the ground, her eyes were full of heartache.

"Mother-in-law, what kind of mistake did Yun'er make to make you use family law?"

 “See for yourself.”

The old lady threw the sachet on the table in front of Sun Jiarou. Sun Jiarou was stunned when she saw the vivid patterns on it.

Even though she had already learned about it from Granny Zhang when she arrived, she was still shocked when she saw the sachet.

 In the past few days, Yun'er was able to embroider such vivid patterns.

Sun Jiarou squeezed the sachet tightly and said, "Mother-in-law, I believe Yun'er will not deceive you just for such a sachet. Since Yun'er said she sewed it with her own hands, I believe her!"

"Okay, you are like mother and daughter. It makes me look like an old woman."

 “Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law doesn’t mean this.”

Sun Jiarou said this, but she was already prepared in her heart. No matter what, she would protect her daughter!

Su Leyun took Sun Jiarou's hand and said, "Mom, it's okay."

She looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, seeing is believing. If you don't believe my granddaughter, she is willing to embroider it again in front of everyone."

Her eyes were clear and there was no sign of wavering.

 For a moment, the old lady was stunned.

She had a vague suspicion that this sachet seemed to have been sewn by Su Leyun himself.

If this is the case, after Su Leyun embroiders it, won't it embarrass her as an elder?

 The old lady frowned, feeling a little hesitant.

Su Waner also noticed something was wrong with this silence.

She looked at the old lady's expression, feeling a little suspicious.

Even if Su Leyun was talented in embroidery, it would be impossible for him to become like this in just a few days?

 “Mother Zhao, help Girl Yun up.”

 The old lady raised her chin and signaled to Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao was also smart and stepped forward quickly: "Second Miss, please get up quickly. The old lady hasn't had a good rest in the past few days, so she made such a joke. Don't blame the old lady. If you want to blame, blame the old slave. Yes The old slave didn’t take good care of the old lady.”

The old lady passed the steps. If Su Leyun was sensible, she would naturally follow it. But in this new life, why should she follow the old lady's wishes?

"How could Yun'er blame her grandmother and Aunt Zhao? It's just that this matter must be brought to light, lest outsiders hear about it, wouldn't it ruin Yun'er's reputation in vain?"

Su Leyun stood up and asked Lian Xin to get the embroidery tools.

The old lady looked a little ugly and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Girl Yun, this matter won't spread."

“Grandma, I know people but not their hearts. If something goes wrong, where can Yun’er go to cry?”

“Yun’er is right, mother-in-law, let’s let Yun’er prove it to everyone.”

Sun Jiarou also agreed, this kind of matter can be big or small. If it is not dealt with clearly now, there will be endless troubles.

Su Waner wanted to say something, but when she met Sun Jiarou's eyes, she silently closed her mouth.

She has just eased the relationship with Sun Jiarou. If she says anything more now, she may arouse Sun Jiarou's suspicion again.

 Soon, Lian Xin got the tools.

Su Leyun started sewing in front of everyone.

Soon, the outline of a pine and crane appeared on the embroidered handkerchief.

 The needlework has begun to take shape as it is interspersed with needlework.

Su Leyun's movements are smooth and smooth as she cuts the thread and tightens the needle, like a painting.

The sharp-eyed servant quickly looked at the sachet and then at the embroidered handkerchief in Su Leyun's hand, but didn't notice any difference.

 Even the newly embroidered pine and crane are more exquisite.

 The old lady’s face darkened, a hand suddenly came to her mouth, and she coughed several times.

 “Old lady.”

Mammy Zhao has been following the old lady for many years. As soon as Su Leyun's embroidered handkerchief was sewn, she realized something was wrong. Now, whenever the old lady makes any movement, she will react quickly.

 Everyone's attention was attracted to the old lady again.

Su Leyun hid the sneer in his eyes and said loudly: "Go and ask for the doctor."

 “No need…it’s all an old problem. Let’s all leave and let me have a good rest.”

 The old lady waved her hands, showing a bit of fatigue.

Just before everyone was about to leave, the housekeeper opened the curtain and stepped in. Holding a letter in his hand, he said excitedly: "Old madam, there is a letter from my aunt!"

At this moment, the old lady, who was still looking weak, straightened up and said, "Changying's letter? Quick, get it quickly!"

“I’m afraid my aunt is coming back, right?”

Mama Zhao also looked happy.

Su Waner took the letter from the housekeeper, opened it and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady read the letter very quickly, then put down the letter and said, "I'm coming back. Chang Ying said in the letter that he can reach the capital in three days."

“Grandma, cousin, will they come too?”

Su Waner asked aloud and glanced at Su Leyun subconsciously.

The old lady nodded and said, "You are coming back. Your uncle is going to Beijing to report on his work. Maybe he will stay for a long time."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Zhao quickly said: "Old madam, I will have someone clean up the yard right away."

 Everyone in the house took action.

 Only Su Leyun and Sun Jiarou stood on one side, looking out of place.
