In Su Zhiyun's heart, the status of his two sisters was not as important as his being the heir apparent.

Now that the Hou family has reached his father's generation, it has been hereditary for three generations. If his father and he have no outstanding achievements, the hereditary position will be taken back.

This is also the reason why he is not the prince of the Hou family yet.

His friends outside also began to laugh at him for not being a prince.

He could only pretend not to hear.

His mother taught him since he was a child that he should study hard at home and there is no need to go to the battlefield to make achievements. If he goes there and can't come back, it will be bad.

He has been scared to death since he was a child, and the thought of the battlefield terrifies him.

His grandfather asked him to practice martial arts with him, which he hated very much.

Now he just wants to study with his father and gain a good reputation.

If his two sisters were willing to sacrifice for the Hou Mansion, he would be happy to see it happen.

He can save all the effort of studying for merit and fame.

The old lady didn't like her grandson very much either. Like his father, he was always good at plotting and scheming.

Thinking about enjoying happiness but not thinking about paying for it, this is the way of people in the Hou family.

"Why is Jiaojiao a member of your Marquis' Mansion? She was brought to the Duke's Mansion a few days after she was born. I raised her by pooping and peeing. She is a member of our Protector's Mansion! If it weren’t for Gu Nian, your Marquis Mansion was Jiaojiao’s home at the beginning, why would I let her go back and be lost for so many years? Now that my Jiaojiao has finally come back, why do you let her marry the King of Northern Liang? Why didn’t you let her go? Marry Xiaoxue? Is my Jiaojiao so ruined by your Marquis?"

The old lady's face was livid with anger. The people in the Hou Mansion were indeed not good people.

If this stupid daughter of mine hadn't insisted on marrying into the Hou Mansion, how could she have agreed to this marriage?
Sure enough, they are all the same thing.

Zhou opened her face and mouth, but did not dare to say anything.

It was because she didn't want Xue'er to suffer that she got her daughter back to marry the King of Northern Liang instead of Xue'er.

Her Xue'er is the future crown princess and the future mother of the country, why should she go to Beiliang and suffer?
Su Zhiyun was speechless by the old lady's rebuke. He had remembered it when his little sister was born, and he didn't care much when he knew she was a little sister.

He knew that no one would compete with him for the throne.

Later, he didn't know why his sister was taken away by his grandmother, and then he ignored her.

After his little sister was lost, he didn't think anything was wrong. After all, she was a woman, and the one who could help the Hou Mansion was the sister he recognized. Since she couldn't help the Hou Mansion, it was okay not to want such a sister.

Now this sister at least still has a good skin. What if the King of Northern Liang takes a fancy to her?

If you can't be the main concubine, being a side concubine is more than enough.

"Grandma, you always let my little sister make her own decisions, right? It's not like that for a young lady from the Hou Mansion to live in my grandma's house. Don't you think so, little sister?"

Su Zhiyun looked at Ji Yao gently.

Ji Yao sat quietly beside the old lady, soft and waxy, and looked very clingy.

Meeting Su Zhiyun's eyes, Ji Yao pretended not to see it.

His voice was light, "What if I don't want to go back? I eat well, drink well, live well, and there are people hurting my grandmother's place. Why should I go back? I will go back and let you be a pawn to marry someone I don't like." ?"

Su Zhiyun choked.

The Hou Mansion is indeed not as good as the Duke's Mansion, and going back to the Hou Mansion is just a chess piece.

This is the price she should pay as a young lady of the Hou family.

"Little sister, we came here with our mother just to take you back. We just want you to go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet. You may not be selected as the Princess of Beiliang. It's just a formality."

They had made up their mind to get her selected, so how could they let her fail so easily?
Man, he must be taken away today.

"You begged me to go back?" Ji Yao tilted her head, looking like she didn't know much about the world.

Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth in hatred and begged her?How did she have the nerve to say it?
Thinking of what those people said about the Hou Mansion along the way, she suppressed her anger and said, "Yes, we are begging you to go back."

Mrs. Zhou said this with gritted teeth, wanting to tear off Ji Yao's flesh and eat it.

Su Zhiyun was also a little unwilling. She should have been grateful to them for taking her back, but now they actually begged her to go back.

Ji Yao snuggled up to the old lady and acted coquettishly, "Grandma, since they begged me to go back, then I'll be kind enough to go back. The Hou Mansion is also the place where I was born, so it's okay to go back and have a look until I've had enough. Just come back."

If Ji Yao wants to find out why her aunt abandoned her, she must go back to the Hou Mansion to investigate.

Just now she looked at Mr. Zhou's angry look, and she thought she was hiding it well, but she still saw it.

Xiao Zhou probably hates her sister, but why she hates her sister, she still needs to go back to the Hou Mansion to find out.

Why should she, an ignorant child, have to bear the hatred between the two of them?

Fortunately she met her parents, otherwise she would have died without her body intact.

"Jiaojiao?" the old lady said in shock.

Does she know that the Marquis Mansion is a wolf den?

She shouldn't have been soft-hearted and let Jiaojiao go back, otherwise she wouldn't have lost her.

Now she wants to go back, what if she is harmed by them again?
Ji Yao took the old lady's hand and comforted her, "Grandma, don't worry, I'll go back and have a look and I'll be back in a few days."

He secretly winked at the old lady.

The old lady understood and finally felt relieved.

"Okay! I can let Jiaojiao go back to the Hou Mansion to stay for a few days. Grandma Sun must go with her, otherwise I won't worry."

Aunt Sun has always been at the old lady's side, and she is highly respected. When Ji Yao was a child, she took good care of her at the old lady's place.

"Yes, I will take good care of the young lady." Grandma Sun said with a serious face.

The old lady asked her to follow her cousin, which shows that she attaches great importance to Ji Yao.

"Then let's go." Zhou didn't want to stay here any longer.

Asking Grandma Sun to follow her to the Hou Mansion clearly shows that she doesn't believe her.

Little Zhou looked at Ji Yao with jealousy, why should the eldest sister's daughter be more important than her daughter? '

When her daughter wanted to be favored by her grandmother, it was when the old lady thought of Ji Yao.

No matter how reluctant the old lady was to leave, she still watched Ji Yao get into the carriage with her own eyes.

"Mom, Jiaojiao will be fine, Grandma Sun is here." Mrs. Liu supported the old lady and comforted her.

"I'm just worried. I lost Jiaojiao last time. I'm still worried about her coming back this time."

It's all because she is too soft-hearted. She knows what kind of character her mother is, but she still cares about the blood relationship and wants to strengthen the relationship between mother and daughter.

But I didn't expect that the child would be lost just a few days after going to the Hou Mansion. This would last more than ten years.

"That matter is not your fault." If the child is lost, it is because the people of the Hou Mansion are not in good hands with it.

The old lady returned to Ci'an Hall in a depressed mood.

Since Jiaojiao wants to do big things, she just needs to support her.

Ji Yao had already told the old lady that she still wanted to go back to the Hou Mansion just to investigate the truth behind her being thrown away.

The old lady thought carefully before agreeing. She could not find out who threw the child away all these years.

When the child is older, it would be better to let her go back and see how evil people are. After all, the Protectorate's Palace will protect her.
