Hexi

Chapter 102 What kind of person is she?

The ancestral training of the Su family, as far as Su Wei heard, was not so strict in the past. When her grandfather, great-grandfather, and even great-grandfather were alive, although they also talked about this family training, they would not shy away from it in daily life. For example, Su Wei's grandmother doesn't know how to make locks and is not allowed to enter Tiangong Workshop, but she can still distinguish dozens of locks, and her grandfather will not shy away from talking about them in front of her.

But it's different here in Su Shou. As long as Su Shou remembers, whenever she touches the lock, Su Shou will severely reprimand her servants and forbid her to touch it.

He was away from home for a long time, but during the time he was at home, he still established this rule.

At that time, Su Luo was not very interested in locks, it seemed like she really wanted to get this ancestral property!

Therefore, Su Luo has a bit of disdain for Su Shou.However, her grandparents loved her and her mother very much, and she still had affection for the Su family.It's just that when I think of my mother who was neglected all her life and finally died without knowing why, I can't help but feel desolate for her.

When I returned to Qiyuyuan, I saw that Mrs. Xu was already sitting in the room. Seeing her coming in, I immediately got up: "How is Brother Qi? Your father has never been okay, right?"

This woman, who has always been a stepmother from the beginning, has "crossed the line" unknowingly now, and there is worry on her face that she can't pretend to come.Su Wei said: "Mrs. Meng is worried, father only punished him to kneel in the ancestral hall for an hour."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Xu said repeatedly, but she didn't realize that she was relieved. "Your father has been holding back his breath since yesterday. I was afraid that his attack would not be serious."

Su Luo handed her tea and sat down at the table.Then he raised his lips: "You don't have to worry, even if you really hit, brother Qi and I won't feel that it has anything to do with you. I have been a father and daughter for more than ten years, and I know it very well."

Xu's face was a little unnatural, as if he had just been poked into something.Said: "It's my petty weapon."

"Where? To meet a stepmother like you is also a blessing for Brother Qi and me."

Su Wei seldom said anything sensational, and she naturally didn't have the habit of flattery, but everything she said was a radish and a pit, and every word was sincere.

After hearing this, Xu's heart twitched, and she felt more and more that with her being so sensible, all the idleness she had suffered in front of Su Shou was not in vain. She immediately said: "What does one family say about two families!" After a pause, I didn't know what else to say, it would look frivolous if I said too much, and it would be weird if I didn't speak, so I said, "I'll go to the ancestral hall to have a look!"

Su Wei watched her go, looked at the snacks she left on the table, picked up a piece and ate it, then beckoned Fusang to bring back the bundle.One side said: "Bring Aji here."

Fusang said: "Aji has gone to the ancestral hall, and the slaves are going to bring her back."

……

The ancestral hall is located in the west of Su Mansion, in a well-kept yard, not even a single tree has been planted.

At this time, Su Qi was kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet in the main hall, and was persuading Aji: "I'm really fine, I'm playing tricks with my sister, and I still have a cotton pad tied on my back, so I didn't feel anything at all when the stick came down! What is a one-hour penalty? In the past, I started with two hours plus ten boards!"

Su Qi's eyebrows were beaming with joy and she was extremely proud.

Aji looked at him, then looked around the densely packed tablets in the hall, and said, "You really don't care, how dare you say that in front of your ancestors."

Su Qi shrank his shoulders, bowed three times on the ground hurriedly, murmured something, and then said: "The ancestors should forgive me, I am a master lockmaker to protect the Su family."

"what?"

Aggie didn't understand.

"It's nothing." Su Qi turned his face away, paused on her face for a moment, and said, "Aji, do you hate your Uncle Zhou and the others?"

Aji was even more confused: "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

"Just ask. Didn't you live in their house when you came to Beijing? I just thought, would you not get used to leaving them to Su's house suddenly?"

Aji sighed: "Don't you still think that the big girl bullied me? Really not." After a pause, she said: "I don't hate it either. The big girl said that the relationship between me and them is over. I owe them nothing to anyone, and I don’t need to think about anything in return, and I don’t need to hold grudges. We will each have our own lives in the future. I will remember them all.”

Su Qi let out an "oh" and said nothing.

Aji tilted his head to look at him: "What's wrong with you?"

"Second Master, Aji."

As soon as Aji asked, Fusang came in through the door, followed by the nuns guarding the ancestral hall.She greeted Su Qi, then turned to Aji: "Why did you come here? This is not a place you can come at will. Come with me, the girl has something to ask you."

Aji quickly got up.

Xi Mo was punished to wash the stables yesterday, and Su Qi was temporarily followed by another boy to wipe the dust. Su Qi gave him a wink to follow, and he followed him lightly.

When Aji entered the door, Su Wei leaned on the couch to eat snacks as usual, she stepped forward and called "girl", and then stood with her hands folded in front of her belly.

"Did you go to the ancestral hall?" Su Luo asked.

Aji said: "The slave girl heard that the second master was there, and happened to have no errands at hand, so she went to have a look."

Su Wei glanced at her and said, "Who taught you to call yourself a slave?"

Aji hurriedly said: "No one, it's the servant girl who looks at other maids and sisters who call themselves so, so they follow suit."

"Don't call yourself that in the future." Su Wei put away the snack, "You're still young, it won't be too late to call yourself that when you grow up."

Aggie agrees.After thinking about it, I thank you again.

Su Wei raised her chin and pointed to the other end of the kang: "Sit down, I'm tired of twisting my neck and talking all the time."

Aji's butt was not as high as the kang, so he moved and sat down after crawling a bit.

"Do you miss your mother?"

Apparently, Su Luo's question was quite unexpected. Aji was stunned for a moment before his face darkened: "Think about it, but it's useless to think about it, slave... I don't know where she went. Me, I don't know either." Is she all right?"

After hearing these words, Su Luo was also silent.Suddenly leaving without saying goodbye, a weak woman wandering outside does have at least a half chance of being in danger.

"Do you have any other acquaintances in the capital? For example, your father's master or classmates?"

"No." Aji shook his head, "We went to Uncle Wednesday's house because we had nowhere to go."

"Desperate, did your mother tell you?"

"My mother didn't say it, I felt it myself. If there were other ways, how could we have walked such a long way to the capital?"

Su Luo didn't comment.She said: "You said that your father and Wednesday were Fa Xiao, but you traveled such a long way to the capital to join him, and they didn't treat you well in the end.

"According to their family's wealth, they won't be able to raise you an extra child. I think your mother's approach is a bit risky. Do you think your mother is the kind of rash person?"
