The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Learn the rules

 Early in the morning, the air was cold and the sky was dark. Su Leyun held the heater in his hand and rushed to the school.

As soon as she entered the door, everyone's eyes fell on her, especially Li Rui, whose eyes were burning with unspeakable annoyance.

With Su Wan'er's deliberate spread, everyone knew that King Jin was interested in the legitimate daughter he had just found from the countryside.

　　Everyone pointed, exchanged glances, and whispered in lowered voices.

“What kind of person is the King of Jin that he would fall in love with a country girl?”

“In the final analysis, it's not about the power of her maternal grandfather's family.”

　　“What's so good about her is that she's not worthy of being crowned king!”

Ignoring everyone's whispers, Su Leyun looked indifferent and went to his seat, waiting for the Master to lecture.

Li Rui sat aside, looking at the beautiful face that was neither sad nor happy, but a little cold, and he became more and more angry. A country girl actually fell in love with His Majesty the Prince of Jin. No wonder she treated him so politely.

　　Pretending to be self-aware, I thought she was really self-aware and didn't dare to climb the lintel of the Li family. It turned out that she had a weak heart and had a higher place to go.

Li Rui withdrew his contemptuous gaze and turned to look at Su Waner. The corners of his lips were raised unconsciously, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were full of admiration.

But that's okay, it saves her the trouble of disturbing him and Wan'er again.

Su Waner looked at the table across the table and turned a blind eye to Li Rui's hot gaze.

Su Leyun saw the reaction of the two people in his eyes, smiled and shook his head, then opened the book and carefully recorded the knowledge imparted by the master.

In her previous life, she was afraid of being laughed at, and she never dared to come to the school to listen. Now that she has come, she realizes that the master's words are all wise words. If she can understand even a little bit, she will benefit a lot.

After school, Su Waner stood up immediately, Li Rui followed her, and Xu Xu talked about everyday things.

"Wan'er, my servant sent money and supplies to Po Wen two days ago, but no one was seen. After asking about it, I found out that something happened."

"Um."

Su Waner responded calmly, her steps becoming more hurried.

"Wan'er, who do you think would go against an old woman like her? I was worried when I heard the letter, fearing that you would feel guilty if you knew it."

Li Rui followed her, with a hint of guilt in his eyebrows.

Wenpo originally lived in her hometown in the countryside for thousands of years. If he hadn't forcibly moved her family to another place, she might not have suffered any disaster and lost her life.

Su Wan'er's eyes averted and she frowned impatiently.

 “Why are you telling me this?”

 “It's my fault, I scared you.”

Li Rui was busy apologizing, angry that he couldn't handle the matter and had offended the beauty. Wan'er was a girl in the boudoir, how could she hear these beatings and killings.

At the corner of the corridor, Su Leyun accidentally heard the conversation between the two people clearly.

 She frowned, lost in thought.

 That day when King Jin came to the house, she was busy dealing with it and did not think about Wen Po's affairs in detail.

 How could anyone take the initiative to trouble an old woman unless she was involved in old affairs in the Marquis's residence?

Su Ye could not be found. It turned out that he was taken away by Li Rui. It is obvious who ordered Li Rui.

Then who killed her?

Su Waner's reaction flashed through her mind, and a trace of doubt crept into her heart.

“Miss, do you doubt the eldest lady?”

Cuiliu followed her gaze and asked in a lowered voice.

 “You should pay attention to see if she has anyone outside the house.”

Su Leyun gave the order slowly, then asked as if he was remembering something: "Do you have any clues about what I asked you to check before?"

"The Marquis went to the Yamen and did not return home in time several times. As for where he went, I haven't found out exactly where he went."

Cuiliu was holding the bookcase and paused in her words. After much hesitation, she gritted her teeth and said it.

“Miss, the investigator told me that the Marquis is outside and has an outer room.”

 After she finished speaking hesitantly, she carefully looked at Su Leyun's face.

 Unexpectedly, Su Leyun's expression was calm, with only a hint of sarcasm at the end of his eyes.

As expected, her good father spent most of his time in the outer room when he was not at home.

 “Continue to investigate, but be sure not to leak the news.”

Su Leyun asked softly, stepped into Chaohua Xiaozhu, saw Sun Jiarou from a distance, and immediately put a smile on his face.

Sun Jiarou chose the inconspicuous Su Changqing among the suitors back then because she fell in love with his wholeheartedness. Now how can she bear the mistake of being infatuated with him?

 “Mother.”

Sun Jiarou greeted her when she entered the door, took her hand and walked to a middle-aged woman wearing royal blue clothes, and introduced: "This is the Aunt Liu that mother told you about."

Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Su Leyun smiled softly and saluted.

"Le Yun has met my aunt, so I will take care of you these days."

Aunt Liu's tense face softened slightly, she took her hand to help her up, looked up and down, and then nodded slowly.

“I heard some gossip when I first entered the house. Now it seems that Miss Yuner's education is very good.”

Aunt Liu smiled and saluted Sun Jiarou, and promised slowly.

“Don't worry, madam, I will teach you well,”

“Auntie, you're welcome. It's my blessing to have you teach me.”

Sun Jiarou waved to the girl to lead Aunt Liu to the yard that had been set up long ago to rest.

Aunt Liu followed the girl down, and only mother and daughter were left in the main hall.

Sun Jiarou took out a handkerchief, wiped off the ink stains on Su Leyun's fingers, took the invitation from the table and handed it over.

 “Have a look, do you want to go?”

 Opening the invitation, the big characters "General Zhao's Mansion" came into view.

It is the sixteenth birthday of the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family, and the ladies and ladies from all the families are invited to the house to celebrate.

 Zhao Mingyan is the direct daughter of a general, with a strong and straightforward temperament. Although they have never met in their previous lives, Su Leyun is very familiar with her various incidents.

 In the final analysis, no matter what status and temperament, there is no escape from the word love.

Sun Jiarou saw that she was silent for a long time, so she took the invitation and put it aside.

"If you don't want to go, forget it, it doesn't matter."

Su Leyun held Sun Jiarou's hand, took out the invitation, and shook his head: "Mother, I want to go."

Sun Jiarou was surprised, then smiled fondly and took Su Leyun into her arms.

“Okay, since Yun'er wants to go, let's go.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a girl's salute came from outside the door.

 “Miss Wan'er.”

Su Waner's steps were graceful, and she stood still and saluted.

 “Wan'er greets her mother.”

Sun Jiarou looked at the daughter who had called her mother for more than ten years with complicated eyes. She would be lying if she said she didn't complain, but she was not without any affection.

She lowered her eyes, sighed, and raised her hand to indicate that she didn't need to be polite.

 “What do you want to do here?”

Su Waner timidly raised her eyes and spoke cautiously.

“My daughter heard that Aunt Liu came to teach her sister the rules, and she also wanted to learn from her.”

Sun Jiarou looked embarrassed and hesitated but did not agree. She specially invited Yun'er to educate her aunt, and she never thought that Wan'er would want to come with her.

"Mother, my daughter just wants to learn the rules and bring glory to the family. She has no intention of competing with her sister."

Su Waner said it so pitifully that Sun Jiarou couldn't say no.
