Mammy Li sighed softly and said, "First Young Master, the Second Miss has been living with maids in the backyard since she was a child."
Su Qingtan's face became more and more gloomy. How many dirty things had his mother and Second Mother hidden from him all these years!
Second Mother was Second Sister's biological mother. How could she bear to let Second Sister live such a hard life? No wonder Second Sister had always been thin. It turned out that she couldn't keep up with nutrition.
"Does my father know about these things?"
"I don't know either."
Su Qingtan snorted and walked directly to the East Courtyard with Su Li in his arms, "Second Sister will live in the East Courtyard from now on. Mammy Li, you don't need to go back to the West Courtyard. Just stay and take care of Second Sister."
Hearing these words, Mammy Li was relieved and said with joy, "Thank you, First Young Master. I will take good care of the Second Miss and help her recover."
Su Qingtan nodded slightly. He knew Mammy Li was kind. He could rest assured if she took care of Second Sister herself.
There were many empty rooms in the East Courtyard. Su Qingtan sent Mammy Li to clean up the room and walked to his room with Su Li in his arms.
Looking at the girl in his arms curling up like a kitten, he immediately had a deep love in his heart and unconsciously quickened his pace. But before he stepped into the courtyard, he was stopped by a shout behind him.
"Qingtan, wait for First Mother!"
Su Qingtan turned around and saw the First Mother in a mink cloak hurrying to him. Behind her, Su Zipei followed silently with red eyes.
Seeing Su Li in Su Qingtan's arms, the First Mother's eyes changed slightly. She immediately pretended to be distressed and said, "Qingtan, listen to First Mother. It's all a misunderstanding! Let me take Erya back to the West Courtyard … "
Misunderstanding?
Su Qingtan's eyes flashed with anger and he said coldly, "First Mother, you'd better explain it to Father. Second Sister is weak and can't stand the cold. I'll go into the room first. "
After that, he directly turned and went into the room without waiting for the First Mother's response.
Madam Zhu came to her senses and her face suddenly turned red with anger.
Although Su Qingtan was the son of the Second Branch, he was filial to her in daily life. But now he contradicted her like this because of that b * tch!
"Mother, what should I do?"
Hearing that Su Qingtan was going to tell her father, Zipei was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Su Mam. Zhu was very upset. She couldn't hold her temper and scolded in a low voice, "Useless thing. You let slip such a small thing. Let's talk about it when we go back!"
Su Zipei pursed her lips, feeling wronged. She had never been scolded by her mother since she was a child. Thinking of this, she hated Su Li even more.
Madam Zhu took a few glances at the courtyard and didn't hear anything. She immediately left with peace of mind. With that wretched girl's temperament, she should know what to say and what not to say.
Su Qingtan first asked the maid to bathe and change clothes for Su Li. Then he ordered the kitchen to boil the medicine and make some light dinner. After feeding the medicine and dinner by himself, he left the bedroom.
At midnight, Su Li opened her eyes and saw that the light in the study was still on. She had occupied Big Brother's bed, but Big Brother was not going to sleep with her.
Along the way, she was half-awake and alert. She didn't really fall asleep until her eldest brother refused to hand her over to Aunt. Although her fever didn't subside, she didn't feel that bad anymore.
At this moment, in the dead of the night, she finally had the time to sort out her thoughts since her rebirth.
It was much easier to return to the Su Family in this life than in the previous life.
In the previous life, she came back as a sinner. But in this life, at least in her eldest brother's heart, she was not a sinner. As for others, she didn't care.
The Dasu Town where the Su Family was located was one of the towns under the jurisdiction of Qinghe Province. Qinghe Province was one of the 20 counties of the Dahan Dynasty. The Dahan Dynasty had a vast territory. The emperor ruled the country well and there had been no war for decades.
Every year, the satrap of the 20 counties would "recommend" talents to the imperial court. After passing the selection test in the capital, they could be promoted to nobility and have a promising future!
This unique talent selection mechanism was the key to the prosperity of the Dahan Dynasty. People with both ability and integrity always dreamed of becoming a young talent favored by the satrap.
Su Qingtan, the eldest brother, and Yang Wei, the cousin, were like this.
Last year, after the Su Family bribed the people, Su Qingtan was on the recommendation list of the satrap, which was a sure thing. But they didn't expect that Su Zipei stole the most precious treasure of the Su Family, the night-luminescent pearl, and gave it to the county magistrate, Li Shanbao, who liked jewelry. Besides, she gave it to Li Shanbao in the name of Yang Wei, who was a relative of the Su Family.
Then, the county magistrate misunderstood and thought that the Su Family bribed the people for Yang Wei, so he directly recommended Yang Wei to the Provincial Office.
When the recommendation result came out, the Su Family knew that they made a big mistake and wanted to fall out with the Yang Family. At that time, Su Zipei suddenly stood out and said that she saw Su Erya give the night-luminescent pearl to Yang Wei with her own eyes. She hinted to the Su Family that Su Erya secretly loved Yang Wei, so she did such a stupid thing.
Needless to say, Su Erya wasted half of the property of the Su Family and ruined the future of the eldest brother for one year. She immediately became the biggest sinner of the Su Family.
In the previous life, Su Li was kept in the dark. Later, she knew that it was Su Zipei who stole it. The truth of the matter was also told by Su Zipei in a boastful tone.
Today, she wanted to act pitiful and let the eldest brother take her back. After all, only when she returned to the Su Family could she continue the road of revenge. But she didn't expect that Su Zipei would suddenly appear, and she didn't expect that Su Zipei would be so cooperative.
Su Li's eyes were gloomy and cold. No one knew what she was thinking.
