Chapter 351 Are we ugly? Why are they hiding?
[Dad, is there anything I can do to help you?]
She looked at what Su Wan had written and shook her head. "Don't worry about you and Third Brother. Just ask Third Brother to accompany you to dry the peppers. As for other matters, Dad can't and won't be able to take care of them now."
Isn't her biggest wish to keep her family safe and sound?
Her wish is that her father and third brother can have enough free time to dry peppers.
Su Wan looked lonely, as if he was disappointed that he couldn't help.
Su Rou said, "Dad, what you should do now is to live well. This yard is mine now. You can dry peppers, raise pigs and ducks, etc. You don't need to help me with other things. I am capable of protecting myself now."
Su Wan said: "Dad knows he can't help you. He feels like you guys are going through something big. Dad won't hold you back. Ah Rou, be careful."
Su Rou nodded obediently.
[If there's anything the Third Brother can help with, feel free to ask him for help.]
Su Rou looked at the words written by Su Wan, and the expression on her face froze for a moment.
To be honest, she has a grudge against her third brother.
Now I feel like there is a long gap between me and my third brother.
Su Rou asked, "Father, Third Brother..."
"Miss, something happened. His Royal Highness Prince Yu and the King of the Northern Barbarians are going to fight." The old woman looked panicked.
Su Rou looked annoyed, "What are they going to do?!"
I can't even ask a question properly!
Su Rou looked at Su Wan, "Father, I want to ask... Is Third Brother your biological son?"
Su Wan's expression was also stunned for a moment, and then he nodded. His expression seemed to be saying, how could you doubt whether your third brother is my biological son.
Su Rou was silent. Since the third brother was her biological son, how could...
That’s not right, maybe Dad doesn’t know.
It seems that I have to ask the third wife, Mrs. Ji, about this matter.
Su Rou turned her head and saw that the two men in the yard were ready to take action.
She shouted, "What are you two doing? What are you fighting for? Aren't you allies?"
Su Rou rushed out of the house and stood between them.
Su Chi folded his arms and watched the show from the side. "They both think the other is not as strong as themselves, so they want to fight to see who is stronger."
Gong Yu is not a person who likes to stir up trouble, and neither is Andre. There is only one reason why these two people want to fight.
That means it was the third brother who was interfering.
Su Rou said, "Third brother, did you make them fight? Now is not the time for internal strife, stop it!"
Andre flexed his wrist and said, "Su Rou, move aside. We are just playing around. We won't really fight to the death."
Su Rou said, "That won't work either!"
Although it wouldn't matter if they started fighting, Su Rou was worried that they would become so angry that they would turn against each other.
Now the South Country and the Desert are on the same front, and there cannot be any mistakes in the relationship.
Gong Yu said, "It's okay, just get out of the way."
It would be unlikely for Su Rou to stop the two of them alone.
Su Rou looked at Su Chi for help, "Third brother, please help me. What if they start fighting and become enemies?"
Su Chi curled up the corners of his mouth and leaned against the wall with a malicious smile, "Isn't it because someone is jealous?"
Third brother doesn’t usually smile, but when he smiles, he must have bad intentions.
Su Rou understood that he was talking about Gong Yu.
Su Rou threw herself into Gong Yu's arms and wrapped around his limbs like an octopus. "We can't fight. We are all friends."
Gong Yu was so moved by her action that he didn't resist and hummed in a muffled voice, "Okay, I won't fight anymore."
Gong Yu changed his mind just because of Su Rou's words. Andre saw how close they were.
During lunch, Andre came in from outside, pulled out a bench and sat down next to the two of them.
The two people who were eating with their heads down looked up at Andre.
Su Rou asked Gong Yu stealthily, "Didn't you ask anyone to bring him food?"
Gong Yu said, "You won't starve to death if you skip a meal."
Su Rou called the maid, "Bring him a set of bowls and chopsticks."
Then he lowered his head and took two bites of the food in the bowl.
Su Rou doesn't like to be too particular about her meals, so she and Gong Yu both pick what they like.
There is no rule about not talking at the dinner table.
Su Rou believed that she had to eat first before doing anything else, and she kept working hard.
Seeing that she ignored him, Andre said, "You two have a good relationship. You didn't even invite me to dinner."
Su Rou said, "I thought Gong Yu had someone send you food. It's our problem. Let's eat together. There's so much food anyway, and I can't eat much."
After Su Rou became pregnant, her appetite became noticeably smaller.
Gong Yu once asked her if the food in Jingzhou was not to her liking.
Su Rou thought about it and felt that it was not the case, because when she thought about the things she liked to eat, she didn't have a strong desire.
Andre said, "Something's wrong with the person you're looking for. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Su Rou paused and chewed the food in her mouth. "What's going on?"
In the afternoon, Su Rou, Gong Yu and Andre left the city.
After entering the mountain, the snow that had not yet melted was extremely cold.
A thin layer of smoke was lingering over the entire mountain.
Su Rou said, "Is Meng here?"
There is a river at the foot of the mountain, and many villagers are drawing water and washing clothes by the river.
Andre said, "Yes, because she went to Jingzhou City to inquire about you, so my people followed the vines here, but... my people can't take her away."
The villagers who were squatting by the river saw these outsiders and stood up with their things and prepared to leave.
Su Rou stopped a villager who was about to leave and said, "Auntie, have you ever seen a woman this tall? She's wearing tattered clothes with patches all over her clothes, but she's clean all over."
She gestured in front of the villagers.
The villager shook his head. "I don't know. I don't know."
Then he broke free from Su Rou's hand and left quickly.
Su Rou felt strange. This person's attitude was a little strange.
It didn't matter whether I knew or not, it was like I was afraid of the three of them.
Su Rou turned her head and looked at the two people in casual clothes.
Is it because the clothes they wore were so nice? They didn't look like ordinary people, which scared people.
But Huang Liao specially exchanged this clothes with the candied haws seller on the street.
Su Rou said, "They look a little strange. There seems to be something wrong with this village."
Andre said, "Catch one and ask him?"
Su Rou said, "No...and I feel like...I seem to have been to this place before."
But she couldn't remember it at all now, and always felt that this village seemed very familiar.
Gong Yu said, "If they hide the Second Madam, we won't be able to find her even if we turn the village upside down. There's no need to worry about the South Country causing public discontent."
What Su Rou was worried about was that if they caused trouble, the people in this village would have a grudge against the Southern Country.
Su Rou said, "Then just ask a reliable villager in a friendly manner."
Andre said, "I'll go, you two stay here."
Su Rou and Gong Yu continued walking into the village. They could hear the sound of flowing water. The further they walked, the closer they were to the river.
Gong Yu asked, "Do you have any impression of what happened when the Second Madam rescued you?"
Su Rou said, "I was unconscious at the time, and when I woke up I was in Hongluan Tower. I don't know where I was rescued by the Meng family."
Wherever they passed, the villagers went into their houses and closed the doors.
Su Rou said, "Are we ugly? Why are they hiding?"
“People only dare not meet outsiders when they have done something wrong.”
Su Rou was silent for a while, and she remembered the village that had been poisoned by Dongfang before.
She paused. "You're right, so I decided to try a rougher approach."
Gong Yu punched the door open, grabbed a strong woman from the room, and threw her directly in front of Su Rou.
She leaned down and narrowed her eyes. "Don't be afraid. I'm just asking you, have you ever seen a woman this tall, with patches all over her body, but with freshly washed clothes? And she wears her hair in a bun?"
The woman shook her head, her body trembling. "I don't know, I don't know, I really don't know anything..."
The same answer, as if everyone in the village had spoken with one voice.
Su Rou took out a small yellow croaker from her purse.
"Tell me, and it's yours."
The woman looked at the gold bars in Su Rou's hand, swallowed, and the timidity in her eyes was slowly replaced by desire.
"Just tell you and you can give me this?"
Su Rou narrowed her eyes slightly.
really.
