Chapter 17 There is someone behind the scenes! (Update )
The doorman's excitement stunned Ersi and Er'an.

After a while, a plump, kind-looking woman wearing a lilac jacket came out in a hurry. When she saw Su Liuyue, her eyes suddenly turned red. "Liuyue, it's really you! You... why did you come here suddenly? But what happened?

When the news of your failed suicide attempt came out a few days ago, your uncle immediately sent someone to the Su family to inquire about your situation, but those bastards in the Su family didn't even let him in! They just said... they just said that your father had punished you to be grounded and not allowed to see any outsiders!

Your uncle and I were worried that we might bring trouble to you, so we were extremely worried and didn’t dare to go see you.”

This is the original owner’s aunt, Yun.

Su Liuyue looked at the anger and distress in her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said: "I'm sorry to have worried my uncle and aunt, I'm fine, I came to visit you today specially, and brought Man Yifang's mung bean ice cream and snowflake crisps..."

"Why are you pretending to be a good person now? Could it be that the Zheng family broke off the engagement, and you feel wronged, so you want to come to us to seek some comfort?"

A clear voice with a hint of sarcasm suddenly sounded. It came from a pretty girl who was following Yun and was wearing a pink waist-length skirt.

She looked at Su Liuyue with her almond-shaped eyes slanting, and said with a slight pout: "When my father and mother invited you to our house before, you were so disgusted as if our house was a beggar's den. Why are you here now..."

"Wan'er! Shut up!"

Yun's face turned pale and she quickly turned around and scolded her.

The girl, Xue Lingwan, was never one to obey. She became even angrier when she saw this. She bit her lip and said loudly, "If I just shut up, can you pretend that these things never happened? Father and mother, how long are you going to be so wishful?!

This woman has never taken our Xue family seriously! Every time you go to see her, she either looks impatient or speaks rudely to you! The last time you and your father went to the Su family, she said she was in a bad mood and didn't even see you!
Now that she's been humiliated and criticized by everyone, she's thinking of us again? Oh, our Xue family doesn't owe her anything! If you want to please this woman, go by yourself. I want to see how she's going to ruin you!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly back into the house.

Yun was so angry that her chest kept heaving. "This little girl, she really has no manners anymore as she grows older! She was already a 15-year-old last month, and will be getting married soon. Look at her! Look at her! How can I feel at ease if she goes to another family like this!"

A maidservant beside her patted her on the back and said, "Madam, the second young lady is just worried about you and the master..."

Su Liuyue looked at Xue Lingwan's figure running away and said softly, "Aunt, I was definitely wrong before. What my cousin said just now was not wrong..."

Hearing this, Yun immediately put on a amiable expression and said, "Liu Yue, don't worry, I will definitely scold that girl severely in a while. You are her cousin, how can she say that..."

"My cousin is very angry now. She won't listen to what my aunt says. Not only will she not listen, she will also reject it."

Su Liuyue smiled faintly and said, "If my aunt doesn't want the rift between my cousin and me to widen, then you don't have to say anything for now. I will find a way to ease the relationship between my cousin and me."

Yun paused, looking at the smiling woman in front of her in astonishment, as if she just realized that there seemed to be something different about her niece.

At this moment, Su Liuyue could only be thankful that the original owner used to be very averse to interacting with the Xue family, so the Xue family and the original owner didn't spend much time together.

In this way, she still has the confidence to conceal her change.

She coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Aunt, I've been running around outside all day today, I'm a little tired..."

After Su Liuyue said this, Yun Shi had no time to think about other things. She quickly pulled Su Liuyue's hand and said, "Come in quickly and have a good chat with your aunt. You don't know how worried your uncle and I are about you after what happened to the Zheng family!"

Yun was a straightforward person. After Su Liuyue was pulled into the hall by her to sit down, she kept asking her about the Zheng family and whether the Su family had made things difficult for her because of this matter.

Su Liuyue answered all the questions. When she heard that the Su family had planned to marry her to a lustful and violent general, Yun's eyes widened with anger. She slammed the table and said, "Su Weili and Guo are really going too far! Do they really think you have no one behind you?! Liuyue, don't be afraid. When your uncle comes back, your aunt will go to the Su family with him and seek justice for you!"

"Don't worry, aunt."

Su Liuyue said quickly: "The identity of that general is not ordinary, he is a general in the Shenwu Army led by the crown prince of the current dynasty, and my father is trying to please him because of his identity.

The fact that my father and Mrs. Guo want to marry me to him is just my guess for now. Even if it is true, I don’t know how far my father and Mrs. Guo have talked to him.

If... they have already mentioned me in front of him, and my uncle and aunt suddenly make such a big fuss, I am afraid that they will offend him. At that time, he will say that my uncle and aunt stopped me from marrying him because they disliked him. I am afraid that it will bring trouble to the Xue family..."

As the saying goes, a new emperor appoints new ministers.

Because the new emperor had ascended the throne, officials from all levels of the court were trembling with fear, fearing that they would be eliminated. If they offended the prince's subordinates at this time, wouldn't they be asking for their own death?

During this period, Yun Shi had heard her husband talk about the troubles in the court. She couldn't help but lower her arrogance and frowned, "But... we can't just watch the Su family push you into the wolf's den!"

"Don't worry, aunt, I already have a plan. I came to the Xue family this time, not only to see my uncle and aunt, but also for this matter."

Su Liuyue smiled slightly and said, "After all, I am just a powerless woman. There are many things I can't do by myself. Fortunately, I have my uncle and aunt behind me." Yun looked at her in a daze. She couldn't help but raise her hand, pressed the back of her hand and said, "Liuyue, you are really much more sensible than before. Your aunt is very relieved, but when she thinks about why you suddenly become so sensible, your aunt feels distressed."

Her niece really had a close call with hell!

Such growth is too painful and too cruel.

Only her closest relatives would feel so sorry for her after she has been hurt in every way.

Su Liuyue's eyes softened involuntarily, and she said softly, "Aunt, those things are in the past. Don't worry, I won't let you worry anymore..."

"Liu Yue... Is Liu Yue here?!"

Suddenly, a hurried voice sounded, and a man in green official uniform, of medium build, with some of the romantic and dashing features of his youth, suddenly walked in quickly. Seeing Su Liuyue sitting on the chair, he stood there for a long time before realizing that this was not a dream. He strode forward and said with tears in his eyes: "Liuyue, you...you are really here! You are willing to come to your uncle's house!
But...but did those bastards from the Su family bully you? Your uncle will go and seek justice for you right now!"

Before he finished speaking, he turned around with an angry look on his face and walked quickly out the door, not even noticing that the black hat on his head was tilted.

Su Liuyue was amused and helpless. Just as she was about to stand up to stop her impatient uncle, a hearty laugh rang out, "Father, it's almost time for dinner, and I must be hungry. If you go to the Su family and make trouble now, how can I eat dinner? Why don't we go with you to tear down the wall of the Su family after dinner!"

Another male voice with a similar tone but much more gentle and refined sounded, "Brother, as the saying goes, a gentleman uses words rather than fists. After all, my cousin is a member of the Su family. You and father are so impulsive, and it is only my cousin who is in trouble.

Instead of tearing down their walls, why don’t we fabricate some charges that the Su family is unkind and accepts bribes, write them up, and spread them quietly. At this cusp of the storm, someone will help us deal with them.”

Su Liuyue: “…”

Looking at the two similar-looking men walking in side by side, Su Liuyue's mouth twitched.

The original owner's pitiful memories of the Xue family did not tell her that her two cousins ​​were more cruel than the other.
When Yun saw them, he quickly stood up and said in surprise, "Wenbo, Wenjin, you are back too!"

Xue Wenbai is the original owner's eldest cousin, and now he is a small military commander.

Xue Wenjin is the original owner's third cousin. If Su Liuyue remembers correctly, he is still studying and will take the imperial examination in the future.

Xue Chengyi looked at his two sons who came in and nodded, "Good! Good! Both of your suggestions are good! Those heartless people from the Su family dared to bully my niece, I will definitely not let them have an easy time!"

Su Liuyue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, eldest cousin, third cousin, I am very happy that you care about me so much, but third cousin also said that now is the time when the situation is at its peak and we must not act impulsively.

I have already told my aunt about the stakes of this matter. I don't want to cause any trouble to the Xue family because of me."

The three men in front of her looked at her in disbelief when they heard her words.

Xue Wenbai was simpler in mind. He suddenly stepped forward and reached out to touch Su Liuyue's forehead. He said in confusion, "Mother, could it be that my cousin has a fever? She...she not only didn't despise me for being so vulgar this time, but she also...she said that she didn't want to bring trouble to our Xue family! Mother, my cousin...my cousin actually cares about us!"

Xue Chengyi also looked Su Liuyue up and down several times, then suddenly turned around and muttered to himself: "It's over, it's over... Liuyue seems to have become abnormal. Little sister, I'm sorry for you! I didn't protect your only daughter well!"

Su Liuyue: “…”

The original owner's memory did not tell her that her uncle and cousin were actually two idiots!

Yun looked at the father and son with a reproachful look. Just as she was about to say something, a maid suddenly ran in and said anxiously, "Madam, Young Master, something bad has happened. The Madam suddenly vomited violently and vomited out everything she ate today..."

Everyone's face changed and their minds were instantly distracted.

Xue Wenbai, in particular, immediately turned around and ran out.

Su Liuyue remembered that her eldest cousin had just got married the year before, and the young lady the maid mentioned should be her eldest cousin's wife.

Yun was also worried, and pulled Su Liuyue along, saying, "Let's go and see your cousin's wife. Your cousin's wife just got pregnant, and she's had severe morning sickness during this period. Basically, she throws up everything she eats, and recently she has no appetite for anything. She's become very thin, and your cousin is really worried.

She wanted to come out to meet you, but I held her back."

Upon hearing this, Su Liuyue couldn't help but show a thoughtful look on her face.

The Xue family's house is not big, it is a three-courtyard house. Xue Wenbai and his wife's room is in the east wing outside. When Su Liuyue and Yun arrived there, they happened to meet Xue Lingwan who had also hurried over.

When Xue Lingwan saw Su Liuyue, her face suddenly darkened and she gritted her teeth and said, "Why are you still here, woman? What do you want to do in my sister-in-law's room?"
