Chapter 72 I Hate It

Su Mixue's "sister" suddenly pulled out the memories and plots that were buried deep in Su Wan's mind, and flashed through the scenes like a passing show.

Su Mixue's grandmother was Su Jihong's wet nurse. When Su Jihong was five years old, wet nurse Feng saved enough money to return to her hometown to buy a shop with her husband, do a little business, and live a good life with her family.

The man brought his eldest son to pick up wet nurse Feng. Because Su Jihong couldn't bear to leave her, the old lady of Dingyuan Hou kept the family for a few more days. On the way back, something happened, and only wet nurse Feng survived.

The mother-in-law hated her to the core, cursed wet nurse Feng as a nemesis, and drove her out of the house.

The old lady of Dingyuan Hou felt sorry for her and asked her to continue to take care of Su Jihong. But wet nurse Feng was pregnant with a posthumous child. After ten months of pregnancy, she gave birth to Qinglan, who was Su Mixue's mother.

Su Jihong respected Feng the wet nurse very much and felt guilty. If he hadn't been ignorant and kept Feng's family for a few more days, maybe her husband and son would not have died, and Qinglan would have been taken care of as her own sister.

The old lady of Dingyuan Marquis was also kind-hearted. Perhaps she had the same mentality as Su Jihong, so she took extra care of the mother and daughter and allowed Qinglan to go to the clan school to study with the young ladies and young masters.

Qinglan was very scheming and scheming. She took advantage of this mentality. She was sweet and clever, and she was very popular with the old lady of Dingyuan Marquis. The young ladies in the mansion also loved to play with her. Except for her low status, she lived a better life than the young ladies of ordinary families.

This also fueled Qinglan's ambition. She wanted to marry Su Jihong, seduce Su Jihong, and hold him tightly in her hands.

After Qinglan came of age, Su Jihong mentioned to the old lady of Dingyuan Marquis that he wanted to marry Qinglan.

The old lady of Dingyuan Marquis strongly opposed it. How could he, the heir of the marquis's mansion, marry a servant's daughter of low status? Although Qinglan is educated and studies with the young ladies in the mansion, there is still an insurmountable gap between their families. It happened that the Queen Mother sent an opportunity at this time. She arranged a marriage for Su Jihong with the only daughter of the Qi family.

Originally, she planned to let Qinglan be Su Jihong's concubine, but seeing that Su Jihong was obsessed with Qinglan, the old lady of Dingyuan Marquis changed her mind. In the end, she promoted Qinglan and wanted to recognize her as her adopted daughter and choose a Jinshi master with a clean family background to be Qinglan's husband. After she made political achievements, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion would make some arrangements and help her, which would be considered a complete friendship and also cut off Su Jihong's thoughts.

But Qinglan heard the conversation between the mother and son, set up a trap, got Su Jihong drunk, seduced him to bed, and deliberately let people see it, forcing the old lady of Dingyuan Marquis to let go.

The old lady of Dingyuan Marquis grew up in a deep mansion. What tricks has she not seen? She immediately saw through Qinglan's tricks. She was angry and disappointed, and drove Qinglan out of Dingyuan Marquis's mansion.

Wet nurse Feng had no face to stay in Dingyuan Marquis's mansion. After confessing to the old lady, she took Qinglan back to her hometown. Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis gave dozens of taels of silver to complete the last master-servant friendship.

Wet nurse Feng took the silver as Qinglan's dowry and hurriedly married her to a poor scholar in the village. Not long after the marriage, Qinglan found out that she was pregnant. Qinglan was unwilling to accept her fate. She felt that her chance to turn the tables had come. After wet nurse Feng died of illness, she secretly contacted Su Jihong.

At that time, Su Mixue was already five years old. Su Jihong came over, took the mother and daughter to the town, bought a house to settle down, and invited a teacher to teach Su Mixue knowledge.

Under the coercion and inducement of Su Jihong, the poor scholar had to endure humiliation for the safety of his family, and finally died of depression.

"Sister, are you angry with me? Are you blaming me for snatching your marriage?" Su Mixue walked in front of Su Wan, with guilt on her face, and blamed herself: "This is all Dad's decision. I, I am just his stepdaughter, and I dare not disobey his order."

Su Wan looked at Su Mixue with a tearful and pitiful look, and felt it was quite interesting.

The mother and daughter pretended to be little white lotuses and played the original owner around.

After the goal was achieved, they still pretended in front of her and put the blame on Su Jihong.

In the book, Su Mixue had never been to Xinghua Village. After the original owner married Gu Huai, she just hated Su Jihong and took her anger out on Su Mixue, and wanted to change the marriage back. If the original owner's soul still lived in this body, maybe Su Mixue would win her over again, and then die quietly in Su Mixue's hands.

"You got the advantage and you're still acting cute. I treated you as my good sister. You came to Xinghua Village now, are you showing off to me that you're the Crown Princess?" Su Wan grasped the original owner's tone and demeanor, and sneered disdainfully: "A pheasant is a pheasant, even with bright and beautiful fur, it can't be a phoenix."

Su Mixue was not angry, but tears kept falling down, and she said with tears: "Sister, I don't have it. If you want to be the Crown Princess, I can help you." She was sincere and wanted to hold Su Wan's hand: "Give me a little more time, I can find a way to change you back."

"No need." Su Wan avoided Su Mixue's hand and said disdainfully: "The Crown Prince has been used by you, I think it's dirty, you keep it for yourself."

Su Mixue's heart stagnated, and she looked at Su Wan in surprise. She really didn't expect that the person who was jealous of her just now suddenly changed his face and looked down on the Crown Prince.

Thinking about it, Su Mixue figured it out, Su Wan was still angry.

This is hypocrisy.

"Sister, don't say that. I don't want to do that either." Su Mixue bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "I came here to see you and tell you that your father is sick. Have you seen the list posted by the prince?"

"No." Su Wan was too lazy to waste words with Su Mixue, and stretched out his hand to her and said, "You can see that my life is not easy. You are so kind to me as a sister, so give me one thousand taels of silver."

Su Mixue's expression froze, and she couldn't help but look at Su Wan, feeling that she had changed. She didn't feel jealous, unwilling, or point at her nose and yell angrily. She just said something sarcastic and cold. Her eyes were as clear as water, as if they could see through people's souls.

She was wearing a cloth skirt and a wooden hairpin on her head. Based on her understanding of Su Wan, she would never wear such clothes even if she died, but she seemed to be in a state of adapting well.

Su Mixue folded her hands uncomfortably, and had a feeling that things were beyond her control.

She frowned, angry that Jiang's work was not good. After so long, Su Wan had not been dealt with.

Especially when Su Wan just got off the carriage, wasn't the Gu family very poor? The dowry prepared by the Marquis's Mansion for Su Wan, her mother used tricks to fill it all into her dowry, and didn't give Su Wan half a copper coin.

Where did Su Wan get the money to take the carriage?

Su Mixue calmed down and said with tears in her eyes: "You don't care about Dad..."

"What are you talking about? You don't want to give the money?" Su Wan interrupted Su Mixue impatiently and sneered: "You must be happy that you can marry the prince. Don't be hypocritical here and say some high-sounding words."

"Sister, you misunderstood, why would I be unwilling to give?" Su Mixue gritted her teeth, thought about it, and reluctantly asked Qinghuan to get a thousand taels of silver notes.

Su Wan took the silver note and smiled: "The prince is sold to you by me."
