The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn Chapter 127

Chapter 127 It's not a free gift

Grandma Li looked at Sun Jiarou's face and hesitated whether to comfort her.

 “Mommy, you don't have to worry about me.”

Sun Jiarou looked away, without any emotion on her face.

 She has long lost her expectations for Su Changqing.

“Father has contacted the old department, but Ye'er is about to go on an expedition, so he can't come in a hurry.”

 “Old slave understands.”

 Seeing Sun Jiarou's change, Grandma Li felt a little distressed.

 But she also knows that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, and it is not a bad thing.

 The day of departure.

 Outskirts of the capital.

The only people from the Su family who came to see him off were Su Leyun and Sun Jiarou.

"Yun'er, after I leave, you have to take good care of your mother and yourself."

"Brother, you have said it several times." Su Leyun said impatiently, but his face was full of reluctance. "Mom has asked for the amulet for you, as well as my breast shield. Be sure to wear it."

Su Ye patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I have them all with me! I will never take them off."

Sun Changping, the eldest uncle on the side, took a step forward and said, "You have gone to the northwest. Remember to ask your second uncle to write more letters and come back. If it doesn't work, ask your second aunt to come back. Xiaoxuan's child is also five years old, so he will stay in the northwest." It's nothing.”

As he spoke, Sun Changping took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is a letter written by your grandfather to your second uncle. Remember to take it with you."

 “I know, uncle.”

 The trumpet sounds, and the soldiers are about to set off.

“Mom, Yun'er, uncle, I'm leaving.”

Su Ye said goodbye and got on the horse.

Not far away, Xiao Shengyu also said goodbye to Princess Anle and others, and was walking towards the horses.

 “His Royal Highness the King of Jin.”

Su Leyun stopped him.

　　Unexpectedly, Su Leyun would come to find him. Xiao Shengyu paused slightly and turned to look at Su Leyun.

“Miss Su, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to your brother.”

"Your Highness, there will be no trouble when marching and fighting. The civilian women are not here to ask for your help." Su Leyun took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, "I think this jade pendant should be returned to its original owner."

Xiao Shengyu frowned slightly and stared at the jade pendant in Su Leyun's hand.

“Miss Su, do you want to use this jade pendant?”

"Your Highness has misunderstood. Your Highness has saved civilian girls several times, and his kindness has been reciprocated. This jade pendant should have been returned to Your Highness long ago."

"If Miss Su doesn't mind, just keep it for me."

Xiao Shengyu pulled the reins, got on the horse, lowered his head and looked into Su Leyun's eyes, "When I come back, I will go to Miss Su to get the jade pendant back."

Su Leyun was startled and did not speak for a moment.

 The earth is rarely warm in winter.

Looking at the soldiers retreating, Su Leyun slowly put away the jade pendant.

 “Yun'er, it's time to go back.”

Sun Jiarou said later.

Su Leyun turned around and looked at her mother, "Mom, you go back first, Yun'er still has some things to do."

“Then please pay more attention.” Sun Jiarou looked at Lian Xin and Cuiliu, “Remember to take good care of the young lady.”

 “Yes, ma'am.”

 The three of them entered the city and went to a restaurant.

Su Leyun asked for a private room with a window near the street, ordered some tea and pastries, and sat down.

“You guys should sit down too, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for a while.”

 Cuiliu and Lian Xin looked at each other, wondering about Su Leyun's behavior, "Miss, it's fine if I just stand."

 “There will be a good show to watch soon, and you will have a chance to stand.”

Seeing this, Cuiliu and Lianxin did not dare to refuse anymore, so they took a small stool and sat down.

After a while, there was a knock on the private room door.

Sun Wen entered the house.

“Miss, everything has been arranged.”

"knew."

Su Leyun smiled, stood up and walked to the window.

Cuiliu and Lianxin quickly got up and followed them to the edge.

 There were people coming and going on the street, but it was just like usual, there was nothing different.

But soon, a noise came.

“When will you pay back the money I owed you before?”

 “You are playing tricks! How could I lose everything!”

“You can't afford to lose? If you can't afford to lose, don't gamble! Brothers, teach me a lesson!”

The figures intertwined, and Lian Xin's eyes suddenly widened, "Miss, isn't that Su Chongzhong?"

Looking carefully, the man who was pinned to the ground and beaten by several gangsters was Su Chongzhong.

Su Leyun was not too surprised. He seemed to have known who it was for a long time.

 “Boy, is it just this little money?”

The gangster led by him snatched Su Chongzhong's money bag, shook it in his hand, and a few small pieces of silver fell out.

 “It's you who are cheating!”

“You kid, don't talk nonsense. The black and white writing on the paper is clearly written. You, a scholar, can't understand it, right?”

 When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but start talking.

 “You're still a scholar? You even come to gamble.”

 “You know people well but don't know their hearts! You dare to do gambling and harmful things.”

 “What a disgrace to us scholars!”

 “I'm not, don't talk nonsense!”

Su Chongzhong's eyes widened. He would dress up every time he came to gamble. How did this person know his identity?

The gangster leader snorted coldly, "If you don't know what to do except yourself, how do you think Brother Hu got around in this place? Let me tell you, you owe me a thousand taels, and I will only give you three days. If you can't see the money, don't blame me for going to the academy to expose your scandal!”

 “No! Don't...I will pay it back, I will pay it back.”

 “Brothers, let's go!”

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Su Chongzhong stood up in embarrassment, still limping a little.

He was about to leave when a dark shadow fell in front of him. He looked up and saw a man standing in front of him, "Mr. Su, my lady wants to see you."

Su Chongzhong followed Sun Wen into the private room.

Su Leyun and the others were sitting behind the screen, looking out of nowhere.

 “I wonder who the lady is?”

Su Chongzhong squinted his eyes and looked at the screen, trying to figure out who was behind it.

 “I can help you pay back the money you owe.”

"What?"

Su Chongzhong didn't expect the other party to say that. He slapped his hands on the table and knocked over the teacup.

 “We don't know each other, why do you want to help me?”

Su Chongzhong stared at the screen, thinking about what she was going to do.

“It's precisely because we don't know each other that I asked you to help. One thousand taels is not a small amount, and I have conditions.”

 “What are your conditions?”

“Don't worry, it's not difficult. I heard you live in Su Mansion now?”

"yes…"

Su Chongzhong knew that the other party knew his identity, but he knew nothing about this person and couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Su Leyun coughed lightly, and Sun Wen took out a banknote from his arms and placed it in front of Su Chongzhong.

"Here is one hundred taels, take it as my sincerity. My conditions are not difficult, but I need the help of you two brothers and sisters."

“Can you really help me pay back the one thousand taels?”

"nature."

"I see."

 As soon as the banknote was taken out, Su Chongzhong couldn't take his eyes away.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately took the banknote and turned around and went out.

“Miss, your voice changed so drastically just now. If I hadn't seen you speaking, I wouldn't have been able to tell.”

Cuiliu was amazed.

Lian Xin, on the other hand, looked confused, "Miss, why do you give them money for nothing?"

 “Of course this money is not given away for free.”
