Yu Qingfeng and the others now want to seek revenge. If they knew that the actions of the Yu family towards Xiao He were merely to suppress the eldest brother, Dad would surely be furious. After all, the eldest brother is fond of reading.
“That’s good. The Yu family now is not the same as it was twenty years ago. After Uncle and the others left, the Yu family began to decline. I don’t know what happened, but outstanding descendants successively encountered trouble, especially the current family head’s lineage,” Su Jiu said thoughtfully.
Su Yu frowned at Su Jiu, “Successively encountered trouble? Even the genius grandson of the current family head?”
“Yes, he can be said to be the most miserable one. He is alive but has become a useless person, someone without any abilities.” This feeling is truly worse than death.
Su Yu touched his chin, “So, someone is holding a grudge against the Yu family in secret? Or are they specifically targeting the family head’s lineage? This is getting interesting.”
“Xiao Yu, you will face many troubles after being with Xiao He. You must be careful, and you must establish good relations with the Empress Dowager and the Emperor,” Su Jiu said earnestly, looking at Su Yu.
Establishing good relations with the Emperor and the Empress Dowager would undoubtedly benefit them in the future.
Su Yu nodded, “Brother, rest assured. Xiao He and I will not overlook this relationship. It’s just that I never expected Xiao He to be Yu Qingfeng’s daughter.”
And once Gu Jiuning returns, who in the Gu family would dare not to show respect?
“You really have good luck.” Even someone like Yang Shanshan couldn’t find anything bad to say about Xiao He’s status.
After all, she is Yu Bailin’s granddaughter. Even if not by blood, she was raised by them, making her seem like a biological granddaughter.
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, looking at Su Jiu. “This is something one can’t envy. Brother, you really…”
Su Jiu knew what Su Yu wanted to say, gently shaking his head. “I know what you want to say, but… I don’t know if I can ever like someone else.”
“Well, that’s fine too. Even if you don’t marry in the future, it doesn’t matter. I’ll have Xiao Bao take care of you in your old age.” Su Yu looked at Su Jiu and said seriously.
Su Jiu’s eyes carried a faint smile as he patted Su Yu’s shoulder. “I’ll be waiting for that.”
“Alright.”
“Let’s go, let’s go back.” Su Jiu took Su Yu back, and when Wang Jinhe saw the two returning with calm expressions, she raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
Seeing that the two had calm faces and showed no signs of anything unusual, Wang Jinhe felt a bit strange. What on earth did these two talk about?
Originally, she wanted to ask Su Yu, but considering it was a conversation between brothers, she hesitated. So, without asking, Wang Jinhe spent three days making the canned fruits, sealed them properly, and then handed them over to Su Jiu.
This time, for these canned fruits, Su Jiu paid Wang Jinhe ten thousand taels of silver. Looking at the silver in his hand, Wang Jinhe looked at Su Jiu with a strange expression. “Big brother, do you think it’s appropriate to use money to help me exploit the Emperor?”
Su Jiu smiled and nodded, “I think it’s quite appropriate. Besides, the Emperor also said that he couldn’t let you suffer a loss. It’s not easy for you to make these things.”
Rubbing her nose with his hand, Wang Jinhe chuckled a few times. She actually wanted to say that making these things was quite simple and easy.
“I said it’s not easy, it’s really not easy. Are you silly, girl?” Su Jiu looked at Wang Jinhe and asked without kindness.
Finding excuses for this girl, letting the Emperor know that she’s not having an easy time, and she still has opinions?
Su Yu, hearing Su Jiu’s words on the side, had a smile in his eyes. “Heard, big brother.”
Things that are too easily obtained are not cherished by others, regardless of whether those things are genuinely good.
Wang Jinhe looked at this one, then at that one, suddenly understanding what they meant.
“Compared to you guys, I really am too inexperienced.”
Seeing Wang Jinhe’s expression, Su Yu reached out and pinched her face, somewhat discontented. “Are you saying that Big Brother and I are cunning?”
“Aren’t You?” Wang Jinhe wasn’t angry, instead, she looked at Su Yu and asked in return.
Su Yu suddenly didn’t know what to say, after all, it was the truth.
“Seeing how good your relationship is, I feel relieved. I’m going back now. You don’t have to worry; the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are not on the Xie family’s side.” Su Jiu looked at the two and reassured them.
“Big brother, Su Yu and I have received the imperial edict for our betrothal. What else do we need to worry about?” Wang Jinhe asked with a smirk.
This statement left Su Jiu speechless. He turned his head and looked at Su Yu, feeling that his little sister seemed a bit ungrateful.
“Big brother, Xiao He and I might get married by the end of the year.” Su Yu suddenly thought of this and looked at Su Jiu.
Su Jiu looked at Su Yu in surprise, then turned his gaze to Wang Jinhe. “Is Xiao Yu forcing you, Xiao He?”
“No, if I want to get married, I’ll get married.” Wang Jinhe smiled slightly.
Seeing the two like this, Su Jiu felt a bit stimulated. “Tell me in advance, and I’ll bring Uncle and the others over.”
“Okay.”
Su Jiu gave Su Yu some instructions before leaving with his people.
Standing outside and watching Su Jiu’s departing figure, Wang Jinhe had a faint smile on her face. “Big brother is quite a good person. I just don’t know if he’ll meet a girl who can help him break free in the future.”
“I hope so. Even if not, it’s okay. In the future, we’ll let our children take care of him in his old age,” Su Yu said indifferently.
For him, as long as his big brother is happy, that’s enough. As for what happens afterward, he doesn’t want to think about it at this moment. After all, it’s too early to consider such things now.
Wang Jinhe smiled with a hint of amusement in her eyes. “You’re right.”
“Let’s go, let’s go back.”
Just two days after Su Jiu left, Wang Jingyu returned. When he came back and saw that his parents had changed, there was astonishment in his eyes.
After learning about the grudge between them and the Yu family, Wang Jingyu didn’t say much, but in his heart, he vowed to make those people apologize for their foolishness.
Su Yu looked at Wang Jingyu’s helpless expression. “Don’t think too much. What’s most important for you now is to enhance your strength. Acting rashly before your influence has grown is the most foolish behavior. If you really do that, I will look down on you.”
Glancing at Su Yu, this provocative method had no effect on him. Moreover, he had no intention of causing trouble at the moment.
As Su Yu said, seeking revenge at this time would undoubtedly be hitting a rock with an egg. He wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.
“You don’t need to provoke me. I know when to do what,” Wang Jingyu said to Su Yu.
Su Yu nodded in relief. “If you say so, I feel reassured.”
Wang Jingyu looked at Su Yu and asked, “Do you know anything else?”
“I do know some things indeed.”
