Chapter 90 Hosta
After dinner, Su Junning returned from Cui's courtyard.

From a distance on the road, I saw Su Zhiyi walking towards Hanjin Pavilion where she lived, as if she had just come back from outside.

"She went out today?" Su Junning asked casually.

Nan Xu nodded, "Second Miss went out this afternoon, she didn't say where she was going, why did she come back so late."

"I probably went to Gao's house to see her good aunt." Su Junning raised her eyebrows, "You really have a shrewd face for nothing, why are you so confused when you do things?"

"Second Miss will get married in the coming year, so Miss doesn't have to be upset." Nan Xu said.

Su Junning closed her eyes noncommittally, and immediately remembered something.

"I asked you to try to disclose the matter of Xu Yuanche and Qin Wan to her before. Is it all done? There has been no news, and I almost forgot."

Speaking of this, Nan Xu also frowned.

"The servant girl has already done the work, but there is no movement at Hanjin Pavilion, so the servant girl asked people to watch and didn't tell the lady."

After hearing this, Su Junning chuckled lightly.

"There is no movement, so it seems that she already knew about Xu Yuanche and Qin Wan's affairs. She has a good psychological quality. She is engaged to her best friend's ex-boyfriend, and she can still live in such a calm manner."

Nan Xu didn't quite understand the second half of the sentence, and looked at her in confusion.

Su Junning pursed her lips and waved her hands, "It's nothing, go back, and continue to watch Han Jinyuan's movements, I always feel that Su Zhiyi is not a submissive temperament, she is proud inside."

Now that I know the twists and turns here, I'm afraid the marriage will not go so smoothly.

Nan Xu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Ruiguo Mansion.

In the evening, the whole family of the Xu family had dinner together. During the dinner, Xu Yuanche said that Shen Qianwei invited him to Yuzhou to participate in the suppression of bandits.

Xu Sini's face changed when she heard it, but since her parents were present, she could only cover it up and pretended not to care.

It wasn't until after dinner that he returned to his room that his face was full of worry and anxiety.

"Why did Brother Qianwei go to Yuzhou to suppress the bandits? It's so dangerous. What if something happens to him? I didn't even know he was leaving, and I didn't go to see him off."

Fanghui's eyes flickered, and she comforted her in a low voice, "Miss, don't worry, Mr. Shen is a man of great martial arts and has been on the battlefield. Naturally, nothing will happen to this bandit suppressor. Just wait for him to come back after his meritorious deeds."

When she said that, Xu Sini's face looked a little better, and she nodded slightly.

"Alright, if elder brother Qianwei can make meritorious service and come back, their father and son should both be promoted to rank and rank, then the distance between him and me will be shortened, and he will gradually come into the eyes of his parents."

"Miss Ke, aren't you going to participate in the East Palace election?" Fanghui remembered Xie's words and hurriedly reminded her.

When this matter was mentioned, Xu Sini's eyes turned cold, and he took a deep breath impatiently.

"As long as I don't want to go, there is always a way to avoid it. Don't mention this matter again. It sounds annoying to me."

"Yes." Fang Hui quickly lowered her eyes and answered.

The next day.

In the main courtyard of the Su Mansion, according to the family rules of the Su Mansion, the children greet Cui in the morning every three days, and today is the day.

As usual, Su Junning came earlier, and Su Zhiyi arrived just in time.

Today happened to meet Xiu Mu of the Academy, so the two brothers Su Yuzhen and Su Yu'an were also there.

The four of them sat down after saluting to Mrs. Cui.

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter, you will inevitably be greedy for cold, but remember not to eat too much iced drinks, be careful of hurting your spleen and stomach, especially Zhiyi and Ning'er, women are most taboo to be cold, so be extra careful." Cui's soft voice Talking about homework.

Su Zhiyi nodded politely and coldly, "Thank you, mother, for your concern."

But Su Junning didn't speak, but stared at a Clivia hosta on her head.

"Is the jade hairpin on Second Sister's head newly made? It's really exquisite. I've never seen it on the market before."

When she mentioned it, Su Zhiyi's eyes flickered, his eyes were slightly lowered, and there seemed to be a little blush on his face.

"Yes, I bought new ones. I bought them when I went out yesterday to see how beautiful they looked. The shop owner said that they were made in-house, and they were circulated outside."

Neizao is something that comes out of the palace.

Sometimes some concubines in the palace would sell their unused jewellery, and exchange them for some money to supplement them, or it was common for the palace people to exchange them for money from their master's rewards.

Su Junning once bought a necklace and a bracelet made inside.

But when she looked at it, the jade hairpin on Su Zhiyi's head was very delicate, with a transparent and pure texture.

Although the Su family is a big family, the monthly silver for the boys and girls is only 30 taels. Cui usually gets the silver from the public account for making clothes and jewelry. It is rare to buy jewelry by yourself.

After all, girls can't afford that much money at once.

So Su Junning became interested in the origin of this jade hairpin, and asked after it.

"Is that so, which shop did Second Sister buy it for and how much money it cost? I like it so much. I'll go to that shop to have a look someday."

When she asked suddenly, a strange look flashed in Su Zhiyi's eyes, but she quickly covered it up, still showing a cold look.

"I bought it in Nongyuzhai. I saved up the money myself. I didn't use the money from the public office."

When she said this, it seemed that what Su Junning said just now was implying that she embezzled the company's money for private use.

Although Su Junning didn't mean anything in this regard, she choked back when she spoke so harshly.

"I didn't say that, Second Sister, don't do things like 300 taels of silver here."

Seeing that the two sisters were about to pinch again, Cui hurriedly interrupted.

"Okay, it's just a piece of jewelry. You are serious with your second sister. If you like it, go buy it. Do you know if you are missing jewelry? Tomorrow, I will ask the master outside to come in and make a few new clothes for the four of you. , the two of you sisters have two new faces."

"No need, I don't need anything. Mother will prepare it for them. If there is nothing else, I will resign first." Su Zhiyi stood up and blessed her body with a cold expression.

Cui naturally did not force her to stay, and let her go.

After sending away the two sons, he talked to Su Junning alone.

It's nothing more than to make her less arguing with Su Zhiyi.

Su Jun Ningxin said that thanks to her clear understanding, she knew that her mother loved her, if she was as ignorant as Su Zhiyi, she would be jealous of Cui's treatment of Su Zhiyi.

But even though he agreed with Cui's family, after leaving the main courtyard, Su Junning still sent Jichun out of the mansion to visit Nong Yuzhai.

As for Hanjin Pavilion, Su Zhiyi didn't know that Su Junning would investigate her affairs, and at this moment, she was taking off the Clivia jade hairpin from her head and holding it in her hand to examine it.

"Miss, why did you reject Madam, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, our family must go to the palace for a banquet, and make some new clothes, new jewelry, isn't it just right." Chu Yun was puzzled beside him.

Su Zhiyi's eyes turned cold, and he put down the jade hairpin.

"It looks like she is being kind to me, but in fact, she is seeing her daughter jealous of my new jewelry, using my excuses to make her daughter happy, and by the way, please my elder brother and third younger brother. I don't care."
