Chapter 12 Meet the Grandfather
Chapter 12: Meeting the Ancestor
Su Ye returned to Chaohua Xiaozhu. Sun Jiarou and Su Leyun had already changed their clothes for going out, and were waiting for him to leave the house together.
“Yun’er has been back for a while, so it’s time to visit your grandfather.”
Sun Jiarou picked out a red gold hairpin from the jewelry box and put it on Su Leyun. She looked around for a long time and nodded with a smile.
Her daughter is beautiful and can dress up well.
“Grandpa loves his younger generation the most. Don’t be afraid, sister, he will definitely like you!”
Su Ye comforted Su Leyun with a smile as he went out, and then loudly ordered the concierge to prepare the car.
Horse hoofs clattered. In the car, Sun Jiarou held Su Leyun's hand and told her in detail about her grandfather's family.
Su Leyun had a smile on her lips. In her previous life, her mother also took care of everything. But she was impatient at the time and only focused on looking at the bustling scenery on the streets of Kyoto.
Grandfather Sun Shao was a battle-hardened general with a sense of majesty and murderous aura. In her previous life, she was very afraid of this grandfather. She never came to visit her, let alone fulfill her filial piety, except during New Year holidays.
But it was this seemingly stern grandfather who had broken his heart for her in his previous life. He first forced the Su family to clear her name, and then won a marriage for her from the Li family.
In her previous life, she watched helplessly as her grandfather was framed and died miserably in prison, with nothing to do.
The wall fell and everyone pushed it down. It was pitiful that my grandfather spent his whole life serving the country and fighting on the battlefield. In the end, he didn’t even have a decent mausoleum...
In this life, she will not let the past happen again, and she will make up for her unfulfilled filial piety to her grandfather who is planning for her.
The car stopped at the gate of the General's Mansion, and the old housekeeper immediately came out to greet him.
“The eldest lady is finally back. The master is waiting inside.”
The girl helped the mother and daughter out of the car, and the group entered the Sun Mansion.
Sun Mansion is not small in area. Although the pavilions, terraces and courtyards are not as luxurious as Su Mansion, they have the sparse and magnanimous atmosphere of a warrior.
The housekeeper led the mother and son into the main hall.
Beside the mahogany carved table, an upright and dignified old man with gray hair sat on the main seat.
Su Leyun bowed down and kowtowed solemnly.
“The granddaughter has met her grandfather.”
“It will be good to come back, it will be good to come back.”
Sun Shao stood up and helped her up, looking up and down at his thin and little granddaughter, his kind eyes full of love.
This child is too thin and needs to be replenished in the future. He kept asking the housekeeper to pack up the tonics and medicinal materials given by the emperor in the storehouse and bring them with them when they leave.
Sun Jiarou held Su Leyun in her arms and sat on the row of seats on the right, while Su Ye smiled and sat next to her grandfather and spoke shamelessly.
“Grandpa, you said last time that if Ye’er completed the job well, he would reward me with the moon-shooting bow.”
The sadness in his heart was diluted by this sentence, and Sun Shao patted Su Ye on the shoulder in an angry and funny manner.
"Here you go! Protect your sister from now on. If she is wronged, I will be the first to spare you!"
Su Ye assured him by patting his chest.
“Grandpa, don’t worry!”
Sun Shao nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Su Leyun and spoke kindly.
“My grandfather is a military general, and I don’t know what you like, so I will give you two female soldiers.”
The housekeeper dressed up the two maids and brought up the eighteen-nine-year-old girl. They both saluted Su Leyun.
“This slave has seen the young lady.”
Looking at the two familiar faces, but greener than in memory, Su Leyun resisted the redness of his eyes and stood up.
The one in the peach-colored shirt is called Lianxin, and the one in the blue-colored shirt is called Cuiliu. One of them is good at medicine, and the other is good at martial arts.
In her previous life, her maternal grandfather also gave her two carefully trained female soldiers. She disliked their blunt speech, so she sent them to work as rough-and-tumble maids in the yard.
But these two girls, who had never received any kindness from her, always stayed by her side and were loyal to her no matter what the situation.
Unfortunately, by the time she came to her senses and wanted to be kind to the two of them, it was already too late.
“Thank you, grandpa, I like them both very much.”
"You can do whatever you want, good boy. You must have suffered a lot these years abroad. Don't worry, grandpa will provide for you."
Sun Shao looked lovingly at the granddaughter in front of him who was elegant and elegant in words and deeds. The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he became.
"Yun'er has been back for a while, why haven't her parents disclosed her identity yet?"
Sun Jiarou hesitated before speaking, her eyes full of guilt, but she didn't want to worry her father, so she said slowly: "Mother-in-law wants to wait until the next year."
Sun Shao knew what was going on, frowned and nodded.
The mother and son had lunch at the Sun Mansion and chatted with Sun Shaoxu all afternoon. They did not return to the Su Mansion until the middle of the month.
Farewell to his mother and brother, Su Leyun returned to his yard with his two new maids. Lanterns were lit on the bamboo path, and Grandma Zhang stood at the door of the yard, looking outside.
As soon as Su Leyun entered the room, Chun Xing came up to her and took off her cloak diligently.
“Miss, you look really good in what you are wearing today, but she outshines all the noble ladies in the capital.”
The corners of her lips were slightly raised, and Su Leyun didn't miss the shrewd calculation in her eyes.
In her previous life, Chun Xing was such a sweet talker, but she just followed this trick and made Chun Xing her eldest maid, making it easier for her to do things for Su Waner and frame her.
“Mommy, these are Lianxin and Cuiliu. Let them serve in my house from now on.”
Su Leyun's sentence established the status of the two eldest girls. When the master is present, they will serve her closely. When the master is absent, the two of them can also take charge of the affairs in the house.
Lian Xin and Cui Liu did not expect that they would be so valued by the young lady when they first came to the Su Mansion, and they expressed their gratitude to her together.
Chunxing stood aside and glanced disdainfully at the cheap clothes they wore.
“Miss, we have children who can only wait outside, but these two people of unknown origin can enter your house.”
Su Leyun glanced at Chun Xing and sat down at the main seat in a leisurely manner.
“Green willow, palm mouth.”
Cuiliu stepped forward and slapped Chun Xing twice.
Chun Xing had tears in her eyes and glanced at Su Leyun with resentment.
Su Leyun held the teacup in his hand, skimmed off the foam, took a sip, and said coldly: "These two slaps are to tell you that there is an order of hierarchy, and it is not your maid's turn to dictate what happens in my house."
His cold eyes met Chun Xing, and she avoided subconsciously, lowering her head and not daring to speak.
Su Leyun put down the teacup, walked to her side with a sneer, and reminded her word for word.
"If there is another time, I will report it to my mother and sell you out."
After saying this, Chun Xing’s knees softened and she immediately knelt down to beg for mercy.
"I will never dare to do this again next time, please forgive me, Miss."
She was born in a family and grew up in the Marquis's mansion. If she was sold out, who knows what kind of despicable place she would end up in, and her life would be ruined.
Su Leyun raised his hand expressionlessly and asked her to go down.
Turning around to face Nanny Zhang, she said, "Nanny has been standing at the door for a long time. It's late at night. Let's go back and rest early."
Mama Zhang was blessed and left with a group of maids.
Su Leyun stood up and asked Lian Xin and Cuiliu to follow him into the bedroom.
A candle as thick as an arm illuminated the room like day. The bed had been laid out, and the brocade quilt was soft and fine. Su Leyun opened the curtain and moved the pillow aside. A white jade with a clear water pattern was revealed in its place. bracelet.
“She really couldn’t sit still.”
