Chapter 78 Half a friend
Seeing that she looked impatient, Su Youyue did not relent as she wished. Instead, she asked, "No one bullied you these days in Su Mansion, right?"

In fact, she wasn't worried about the little girl going out and talking nonsense, because her vital secret was now known to her, so of course she didn't dare.

But Su Youyue wanted to know why she was in such a hurry to leave.

The brat was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she would ask him this. After realizing it, he quickly shook his head: "No, everyone is very nice to me."

She rarely told the truth, and what she said now was true. Although Mr. Su refused to let her go, he ordered his servants to take good care of her. Seeing that she was young, the housekeepers, maids, and servants all took good care of her.

Seeing that her mood had relaxed a bit, Su Youyue persuaded her calmly: "That's fine, but if you don't have urgent matters to attend to, I won't let you leave for the time being."

Without waiting for her to ask why, she continued: "The case of the human traffickers this time is very involved. The forces behind them are intertwined. Shopkeeper Wang is just one of them. Now, the Holy Supervisory Office and the Dali Temple are working together to clear up the case." If we investigate this case, do you think those unscrupulous people will hate us to the bone?"

Chun Ya also nodded seriously: "Yes, brat, it is safest for you to stay in our Su Mansion now. My lady is followed by someone at least when she goes out. If you go out alone, you may not know who those people are." Looking for you."

She already knew from Jin'er that the brat was a little girl, but now that he didn't change his name, although she found it strange, she could only call him that.

The brat is a man. When Su Youyue said this, he immediately understood how dangerous his situation was.

She was really hurt by Miss Su. If she had known better, she wouldn't have been greedy for the money. At least her life would be safe.

But soon she no longer dared to blame Su Youyue. She had to lower her head under the eaves. Now she had to rely on Miss Su to save her life.

"I don't have anything important to do, so just stay for a while longer. I will stay here to help, but I will not sell myself to the Su Mansion."

At the end of the sentence, the brat looked a little wary, as if he was afraid that Su Mansion would sell her out.

Only then did Su Youyue realize that she didn't want to stay because she was afraid that Su Mansion would let her stay as a slave. She couldn't help but feel funny and curled her lips: "Don't worry, I won't let you sell yourself."

Although Jin'er doesn't hate the brat anymore, she still doesn't like him: "What's your expression? You want to stay in our Su Mansion, but our Su Mansion is not happy yet."

Although she sometimes feels slightly inferior to her own status, she knows that the Su family is much better than some families outside. Not only is the monthly salary higher than outside, but the master is also very tolerant. He treats others kindly and will never punish without reason. servant.

Moreover, people are always better than others. The year when she was sold by her parents was a disaster year. There were many girls and boys who were sold in the village, including her neighbor Erya, but the house she went to The master had a bad temper and would beat and scold her in private. He was also very harsh and never rewarded her.

The year before last, I had seen her. She was so thin that she was skin and bones, and she had many scars on her body.

Not to mention far away, let's talk about nearby. Her daily food and clothing expenses are almost the same as those of a daughter of an official below the fifth rank.

Compared with them, Jin'er is very content with her life.

Seeing the brat frowning, Jin'er originally wanted to say that with her status, she couldn't stay with the eldest lady, but after thinking about it for a while, she still didn't say it and instead said.

"If we maids want to stay with the lady, we must be able to read, read, and work as a female worker. What do you know?" This brat's biological mother is a brothel girl. Of course, based on her background, she cannot stay with the lady as a maid. Even if she is a maid, Not even Sasu's maid. If outsiders find out, it will ruin the reputation of the young lady and the Su family.

But she thought that the origin of the brat was not something she could choose, so she spoke very tactfully.

The brat really didn't understand the twists and turns between these house doors. Hearing what Jin'er said, he breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time felt slightly inferior.

But she quickly adjusted her mood and said firmly: "Anyway, I promised my mother that I will never sell myself in this life."

Su Youyue's eyes were gentle and she nodded: "Don't worry, you can leave after the human trafficker's case is solved. You don't have to help with any chores during this period. I will arrange a new identity for you to stay in the Su Mansion. For the time being, let’s resume treating my daughter as Jin’er’s distant cousin, and let’s call her Chu Xiaozi.”

Jin'er's mother died of illness a few years ago. Unless someone puts a lot of effort into checking, they can find out something, but who would check for an inconspicuous identity.

This name has a similar pronunciation to the brat's current perfunctory name, so it won't make her feel too uncomfortable.

"Chu Xiaozi" the brat muttered the name, feeling an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Miss Su is actually not that bad. She even has to consider her own feelings when choosing a name, not to mention that she actually doesn't need to take care of herself at all and just let herself go out and fend for herself.
At first, she thought she was a unruly and willful rich lady, but she didn't expect that even though she had mastered the magic of silver needles, she was not as vicious and willful as the rumors outside said.

After reading it once, she felt an indescribable fondness for the name, and the eyes she looked at Su Youyue finally became less vigilant.

After she responded, she lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then took out the half-folded paper carefully from the layered clothes on her chest: "Miss Su, in fact, I have been helping you with things these days. Although I was arrested, but It’s not all without gain, take a look at what’s written on this paper, is it useful?”

Su Youyue saw that the upper part of the paper had obviously been burned by fire, and was stunned for a moment before taking it.

After taking the paper over and looking at the content on it, her face suddenly became serious: "Where did you get this?"

This piece of paper turned out to be a letter written by Shopkeeper Wang to Master Qiu. Although part of it had been burned, the title of Master Qiu could still be seen, and the final signature was also from Shopkeeper Wang.

"This is a letter written by shopkeeper Wang in the private room of the teahouse, which is the teahouse next to Yahang. I am very familiar with the place, so I sneaked under the window of the private room and eavesdropped. The letter shopkeeper Wang wrote three times did not matter. Satisfied, I wrote it one more time before leaving and asking my subordinates to burn the first two letters."

"When the man just put a few pages of letters on the copper stove, the waiter came to deliver wine and food. He went to open the door. I got up and took a peek, and took half of the letter out when he wasn't prepared."

God knows how proud and surprised she was that she had succeeded before being discovered. She thought that this half piece of paper would definitely be exchanged for a lot of money. Who knows, she was caught before she could deliver it to Su Youyue.

After being rescued, she had no intention of taking any more risks to help Su Youyue, but after talking to Su Youyue today, she suddenly changed her mind.

She thought about it carefully and realized that the eldest daughter of the Su family was actually a good person. Not to mention that she wanted to stay in the Su Mansion to protect her today. At such a critical moment that night, Miss Su still asked her to follow her closely. , and had no intention of leaving her alone.
Although her brat is not a good person, he is not so unloyal.

From now on, she will treat her as half a friend.
