The next morning, Su Qingtan came to the Main Courtyard. Before entering the door, he saw his father, the First Mother and the Second Mother enjoying breakfast.
The First Madam, Su Zhu, saw him coming, coughed softly and smiled kindly, "Tan, come and sit down. Today I specially ordered the kitchen to cook bird's nest porridge. "
The Second Madam was a little confused. Her son never came to the Main Courtyard for breakfast. How did Zhu Yan know that her son would come today?
Su Qingtan snorted and sat down, saying in a deep voice, "Father, today I come …"
"Your First Mother has already told me why you come."
Su Huanli put down the bowl and chopsticks, looked up and showed a pair of majestic eyes, and interrupted, "This matter should not be publicized. Just let Erya come back. I have punished Zipei to close the door. That's it. "
His father's conclusion made Su Qingtan's face full of disbelief, "Even if the Second Sister comes back, she will be accused of being a traitor. How can she face others in the future? She has done nothing wrong. Why? "
Su Qingtan's words became more and more serious, and Su Huanli was also shaken. The First Mother saw something wrong and immediately interrupted, "Oh! Tan, you can't say that. If your Third Sister is also involved, how can you find her in the future? Besides, this matter has passed for more than a month. The storm has already subsided. Maybe others have forgotten it. If we make waves again, our Su Family will be a joke again. "
Su Zhu poked the sore spot of Su Huanli, and the softness in her eyes immediately became hard again. She shouted to Su Qingtan, "There is no need to discuss it now! Your First Mother is Erya's biological mother. She doesn't mind. Why do you still meddle in it? "
Su Qingtan only felt a strong anger in his heart. He looked at the First Mother's friendly smile and couldn't help but satirize, "Everyone knows that the First Mother is the biological mother of the Second Sister. Those who don't know might think that the Second Sister is picked up from the garbage heap!"
The First Madam's face changed dramatically.
"How dare you!"
Su Huanli patted the table, and the porridge was shaken out. He said angrily, "You come to offend the elders in the early morning. Is this how you use your books?!"
"Master, he didn't mean it. He is angry because he failed the recommendation!"
Second Madam Su-Cui, who was watching from the side, quickly stood up and softly advised, "Apologize to your father."
Hearing his mother's words, Su Qingtan took a deep breath, bowed his head and said, "Dad, I'm sorry. However, regarding Second Sister's matter, I hope that Father will compensate her. "
Su Huanli swung his sleeves heavily. Hearing Second Madam mention the recommendation, his partiality to First Madam suddenly decreased a lot. He nodded and said, "Before Erya recovers, she will stay in your place to recuperate."
He turned around and reminded Su Qingtan who was standing still, "Hurry up and thank your father!"
"Thank you, Father!"
Su Qingtan knew that he had to settle for the next best thing, so he bowed to the First Madam in a hurry. The matter was settled before the First Madam could object.
When Second Furen Cui Shi heard this, an imperceptible smile flashed in her eyes. Although First Furen Zhu Shi still had a smile on her face, her expression had obviously stiffened.
In the past, she was very respectful to Lady Cui and did not dare to act rashly. She did not expect that she would suddenly launch an attack today.
For her, Erya was like a sharp thorn in her heart. If she was not removed, she would not feel at ease! Erya … was really picked up by herself.
"That wicked girl should cause me so much trouble!" Viciousness flashed through Lady Zhu's eyes.
…
After Su Qingtan came back, he stood in front of the bedroom. He was so ashamed that he did not dare to go in for a while.
"Is it Eldest Brother?"
A soft and timid voice came from the room. Su Qingtan's heart ached, but he restored a peaceful smile on his face. He pushed the door and walked in. He asked loudly, "Second Sister, did you have a good rest today? I brought you bird's nest porridge. "
Coming in and seeing the scene in the room, Su Qingtan was shocked to see Su Li struggling to get out of bed. He quickly put down the food box and rushed to the bed to support Su Li, "What are you doing? Lie down quickly!"
"I am going to chop firewood and fetch water." Su Li blinked with puzzlement flashing in her eyes, "If I don't chop firewood, Mammy Zheng will beat me."
Su Qingtan's eyebrows shook violently and he said softly, "You don't need to chop firewood or fetch water here. The only thing you need to do is to lie down and get well as soon as possible. "
"Oh."
Su Li tilted her head, and her dark eyes flashed with light. Then she shrank into the warm quilt.
Su Qingtan couldn't help but laugh. He touched Su Li's smooth forehead and asked, "Second Sister, why didn't you tell Eldest Brother that you were bullied?"
"Because Mammy Zheng didn't allow me to say it."
Su Li seemed to think of something. She showed fear on her face and said no more.
Su Qingtan couldn't help but sigh and said in his heart, "Silly girl, you are so weak. When I go to the Provincial Office, how can I feel at ease?"
He could see that the First Mother didn't like Erya very much. His father was busy and the First Mother had the final say in the family. After he left, the Second Sister would definitely be beaten and bullied again.
Somehow, Su Qingtan suddenly thought of Doctor Qi of the Baicao Tang. Should he really send the Second Sister to the Baicao Tang as he said? But how could this be carried out so that Father would relent?
