“Marquis, what are you talking about? Being by Marquis’s side for all these years is already a great blessing!” Liu Shulan anxiously held Su Dingheng’s hand, placing it over the softest part of her chest.
Su Yurou observed from the side, realizing that her mother truly could capture her father’s heart.
Her endurance was far inferior to her mother’s.
When Su Dingheng heard her words, he felt that she carried an air of dignity and grace. He had also heard her mention providing jewelry for Su Yurou.
He immediately took out a stack of silver notes. “Take these. I’ve already arranged for Rou’er’s clothes and accessories. I’ll get someone to add some more. I guarantee that our Rou’er will dress beautifully on the day of the spring banquet and make others envious.”
“Thank you, Father, for your love! Your affection for Mother indirectly benefits your daughter too!” Su Yurou giggled sweetly.
“You little one! Marquis has showered you with affection for many years, treating you far better than Eldest Young Miss. Yet, you still have so many requests. When you return, make sure to serve your elder sister well!”
“Yes, Mother. I’ll remember that and serve my sister diligently.”
Both mother and daughter exhibited extraordinary obedience.
Su Dingheng cherished them dearly, and his guilt only deepened.
Upon returning home with Su Yurou, he waved his hand, instructing his men to provide Su Yurou with a substantial amount of silver and additional clothing and accessories.
When he passed by Su Yingxue’s courtyard, he realized that there was no movement at her place. When the courtyard was deserted, Su Dingheng felt very carefree again!
Su Yurou proudly showed off the clothing and accessories Su Dingheng had provided, her excitement evident as she spoke.
After Liu Shulan’s initial joy, she hurriedly reminded her, “If Su Yingxue discovers these items, don’t be stingy. Let her choose first.”
“I won’t! Mother, these are all the best materials in Jiang Du City. And this rouge and cosmetic powder was bought from the newly opened Thousand Treasures Pavilion. It’s very expensive!” Su Yurou guarded her belongings closely, worried they might be taken from her.
Liu Shulan gently shook her head. “How can you compare yourself to Su Yingxue? In the future, how can you compete with her for the position of Seventh Imperial Consort?”
“Mother, are you implying that… she might threaten me into marrying the Seventh Prince?” Su Yurou’s worry caused her to cast her things aside and gaze at her mother nervously.
Liu Shulan was born with a delicate face and a frail body. Even Su Yurou, her biological daughter, would want to protect her mother, let alone men.
Liu Shulan embraced Su Yurou and tenderly smoothed her hair. “Do you think that a young woman like her would expose herself so frequently and visit medical clinics for no reason? Haven’t you suffered enough at her hands in the past?”
“Mother!” Su Yurou protested, slightly frustrated.
“Listen to Mother. Su Yingxue will undoubtedly attend the spring banquet this time. However, you must avoid any conflicts with her. Just observe her closely and report back to me about her behavior at the event,” Liu Shulan earnestly advised.
“Mother! I don’t want her to go! Is there any way to stop her from going? If she meets the Seventh Prince…” Su Yurou’s anger flared as she thought of Su Yingxue’s envious face.
“Don’t worry. Mother will find Su Yingxue’s weaknesses and only then can we defeat her in one fell swoop.” After consoling Su Yurou for some time, Liu Shulan urged her to be patient and not to engage in any conflicts with Su Yingxue at the spring banquet.
Previously, she had suffered quite a bit from Su Yingxue. This time, even if Su Yurou did not want to be obedient, she could only be obedient..
