However, in this lifetime, she and Shang Junyan had no relationship, so Luo Shaodeng probably wouldn't have any excuses to invite Su Yi to drink and set a trap for him.
Seeing that Su Xinyi was tired, Mrs. Zeng got up to leave with a few nuns. Su Xinyi also got up to see them off, but Su Jingmo firmly pushed her back down and said, "A sick person should act like one. Rest now, I'll bring you some delicious food later."
Su Xixian also said, "That's right, Xiao Liu, you're the youngest in our family. Just rest, and when you're better, your sister will take you out to play."
Su Xinyi was filled with mixed feelings, the kind that couldn't be put into words. Her eyes became a little sour and swollen, and she felt weak.
After gathering herself, she couldn't help but think of the past events again.
Shortly after that, Shang Junyan would save the seventh prince at the hunting ground, gaining the prince's trust and helping him plot to take the Crown Prince's position.
This time, Shang Junyan, like herself, had also been reborn. He would most likely still help the seventh prince.
Humph, she absolutely couldn't let the bastard get what he wanted. If the seventh prince ascended to the throne, what would happen to the kindhearted Crown Prince? Also, there was a feud between her and Shang Junyan over the murder of her mother. He definitely wouldn't let her go, so she had to stop him for her own sake and for others!
As for hunting prey, she was an expert!
And hunting people, she wanted to try that too!
It wasn't until late that the Fourth Mrs. Su returned from her mother's house. Listening to Lianqiao and Cuique explain the situation about Mrs. Zeng's visit today, she nodded slightly.
When she returned to her room, Fourth Mrs. Su changed her clothes and finally relaxed. Thinking about the conversation with her sister-in-law today, she was still a bit nervous.
She hadn't expected someone to ask indirectly about Yihua's marriage situation. Although they hadn't said who was seeking the marriage on behalf of which family, the conversation reminded her of Xin Yi's words today. Both she and her eldest sister-in-law thought it had something to do with the Shu family, which made them unhappy.
If what Xin Yi had heard was true, the Shu family was truly malicious.
However, now that they were vigilant, things should be fine. Yihua's personality was too soft; if she really fell into the Shu family's trap, it would be disastrous.
Fourth Mrs. Su continued to think about it even after lying down. People may mock her for cherishing a child born by her husband from another woman, but that child had brought her good luck. Her eldest sister-in-law had also said that the child was very fortunate today.
Fourth Mrs. Su's thoughts turned to her husband, and she gazed at the top of the bed, lost in thought.
It was impossible to say that she didn't care at all about Xin Yi's birth mother, but she was also grateful to the woman who saved her husband's life and never met her in person. In fact, she felt relieved when that woman refused to come to the capital.
She also felt guilty, for after all, that woman was her husband's lifesaver.
Maybe it was the guilt, or maybe it was because Xin Yi looked so much like her husband. But every time she saw this child, she felt happy.
It was a subtle feeling that gave her the courage to keep going through the lonely years ahead.
Fourth Mrs. Su closed her eyes. She needed a good night's sleep, as the people from Duke An Mansion would surely visit tomorrow.
At daybreak, Su Xinyi woke up to the sound of people moving outside. Being unable to change her habits from her past life, she decided to just get up.
Hearing the noise, Lianqiao hurried in to serve her and said with a smile, "Miss, you're up so early. Are you going to visit the madam for your morning greetings today?"
Su Xinyi nodded, "Yes, I am."
People from Duke An Mansion would be coming to apologize today, so naturally she had to be present.
Whenever she thought of Xu Yurong, there was a feeling of resentment stuck in her heart. She had been ruined by her in her previous life. It was a pity that back then, she had been unable to take revenge for herself, but in this life, she would absolutely not let her off easily.
