Chapter 56 The Su Family's Past

Su Yingxue told Mrs. Su about Lumei's entry into Mantuo Villa.

In the winter of 16 years ago, Su Yingxue's master was invited by the owner of Meizhuang to enjoy plum blossoms in "Meizhuang". On the way back, he saw a woman lying on the snow, holding a one-year-old child in her arms .

When Su Yingxue's master found the woman and the child, the woman was already dead, but the child was not frozen to death because the woman held her tightly in her arms, and was still alive.

The master buried the woman and brought the child back to Mantuo Villa.

Because this child has a green plum blossom birthmark on her buttocks, Master named her Lumei.

Madam Su wiped away her tears.

"Speaking of it like this, I'm still a lucky girl. I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. Back then, it was the Shangshu Mansion's poor management of the family that led to the tragedy..."

Su Shangshu was born in a poor family, and grew up with his lonely and widowed mother.However, he has shown a talent that is different from ordinary people since he was a child.

Mrs. Su was born in an ordinary family of generals. She liked to dance with knives and guns since she was a child.

The two families lived not far apart when they were young, and they all knew each other that there was such a family.

Mrs. Su's parents only had her as a daughter. Seeing her daughter's personality, they were afraid that she would not be able to get married when she grew up, so they came up with an idea.

Mrs. Su's mother found Su Shangshu's family and said that their family agreed to support Su Shangshu to study, but the condition was that he must become their son-in-law.

Su Shangshu's mother agreed after thinking about it.

Afterwards, the two families got engaged, and Mrs. Su's natal family began to fully support Su Shangshu's scientific research.

Su Shangshu lived up to the high expectations, and after getting married with Mrs. Su, he finally passed the Tanhua exam, and his official career has been bright ever since.

But after Su Shangshu developed, he became more thoughtful. He was not satisfied with only Mrs. Su, and also despised her for being rude and ignorant of poetry.Thus, Su Shangshu took another daughter of a declining scholarly family as his concubine.

Mrs. Su had already given birth to a son named Su Ziyi at that time, and she had a violent temper. Although she failed to stop Su Shangshu from taking a concubine, she made things difficult for her after the concubine entered the house.

One winter, she found the concubine's fault and punished her to kneel in the snow. Unexpectedly, the concubine had been pregnant for more than three months. After being punished like this, the child was not kept, and it was a boy.

Mrs. Su also regretted it since then, and never made things difficult for this concubine.But Su Shangshu was furious, not only took away Mrs. Su's housekeeper, but also did not enter Mrs. Su's room for several years.

Because she felt ashamed, Mrs. Su endured it.From then on, besides being good at life and teaching Su Ziyi, she also cultivated her mind, cultivated her character, ate fast and recited Buddha's name.

A few years later, when the concubine gave birth to a daughter, Su Shangshu calmed down and returned the power of housekeeper to Mrs. Su.

Originally thought that this was the end of the matter of the Su family, how could they know that everything was just a superficial appearance.

The little concubine hurt her body because of the miscarriage at the beginning, and she couldn't conceive after giving birth to her daughter, so she hated Mrs. Su.

17 years ago, Mrs. Su gave birth to a pair of twin daughters. It was originally a happy event, but who knew that one of the children disappeared within an hour after giving birth.

After investigation, it was found that the child was taken away by a servant in the family.The reason was because Mrs. Su had punished this servant girl.

Mrs. Su was not a very smart person, but this time, for some reason, she always felt that the matter was not so simple. She dragged her newly delivered body and knelt in front of Su Shangshu to ask him to investigate thoroughly.

Su Shangshu originally didn't believe that there was another secret, but for the sake of Mrs. Su's begging, he agreed.

But after some investigation, Su Shangshu had to believe:
It's really chilling for a woman to go crazy.The mastermind behind it turned out to be that concubine.

Su Shangshu was unwilling to believe this fact at the time, he couldn't believe that the person he had loved for several years could be so vicious.But all the evidence was in front of him, so he had no choice but to believe it.

But everything has already happened. When the Su family found the missing child, it was already a corpse whose face could not be seen clearly, but there was no news of the servant who abducted the child.

After talking about the past, Mrs. Su said:

"At the beginning, the servant woman was caught by the concubine because she secretly sold the property of the mansion to see a doctor for her son, and had to kidnap the little girl.

Originally, the concubine's order was to kill the little girl, but now that I think about it, she didn't lose her conscience and spared her life. "

Su Yingxue also nodded and said:
"According to what you just said, the woman who died in the snow should be the servant girl you mentioned. Because the master sent out many reward announcements to find Lumei's family, but they couldn't find her.

But even though the maid herself was frozen to death, she still held Lumei tightly in her arms, so she wasn't such a bad person. "

Mrs. Su wiped her tears and looked at Lumei, "Son, I have told you the ins and outs of what happened. Although what happened back then was caused by me, I have already repented. Can you come back to Su's residence with me?"

Lumei lowered her head and said nothing.

Qu Chu is not good at dealing with these things, so she didn't say a word.But Su Yingxue didn't have too many scruples.

"Mrs. Su, Lumei grew up in Mantuo Villa since she was a child. She is used to being free and easy. She has never experienced conspiracy. The situation of your Su family is too complicated. How can Lumei adapt to it?"

"Master Su, you don't know something."

Madam Su turned her gaze to Su Yingxue:
"After the investigation of the matter was clear, my husband sent that concubine to practice in a Taoist temple. Because of this, he became cold-hearted towards women and only focused on court affairs.

And I no longer try to be aggressive and aggressive, and concentrate on running the family and educating my children with peace of mind. Today's Su Mansion can be said to be a quiet home that is rare in the entire Yudu. "

"But isn't that concubine's daughter still there? The Su family sent her mother to the Taoist temple, how do you know she doesn't hold any resentment?

She can't deal with others, but isn't it easy to deal with Lumei? "

After listening to Su Yingxue's unreasonable phone call, Qu Chu couldn't help but glance at her.

Although Ying Xue said that Lvmei was the one to make the decision, but after all, she has been with her for so many years, she still can't bear it!
Madam Su said:

"Villa Master Su is overthinking. Fengxia is a responsible child. Although I hate her mother, I haven't made things difficult for her these years. She won't make things difficult for my little girl."

Seeing the stalemate between the two sides, Qu Chu had no choice but to save the situation.

"Mrs. Su, Lumei just found out the truth today, you should give her some time to think about it? Anyway, they are going to stay in Yudu for a while, why don't you let Lumei think about it first?"

Mrs. Su wanted to say something more, but Su Ziyi quickly grabbed her.

"General Qu is right. You don't have to worry about my little sister living in the general's mansion and being taken care of by the general. Mother can come over anytime she wants to see her."

Only then did Madam Su say: "That's the reason. In these days, please ask the General and Master Su to take care of the little girl."
