Chapter 689: Su Han’s Reminder
Su Miaoyan’s lips twitched awkwardly. Grandpa was indeed… a great general!
She should go and comfort Sister Xue!
After she left, only Su Han and Su Qingzhi were left in the front hall.
“Han’er, you’ve been resting at home for a long time. Are you feeling better?” Su Qingzhi asked with concern.
Su Han nodded and smiled. “Thank you for your concern, Grandpa. Han’er’s much better now. I missed my family when I wasn’t in the Marquis’s Manor these days, but why didn’t I see Brother Jinxuan today?”
Su Jinxuan was a loner, but Su Qingzhi was tolerant enough to not restrict his movements.
However, Su Qingzhi was a little wary when Su Han mentioned it alone today. “Han’er, do you have something to tell Grandpa?”
Su Han had always been thoughtful and meticulous, so she wouldn’t talk about a person for no reason.
Su Han looked around and saw that there was no one around. She walked to Su Qingzhi and whispered something.
After that, she sat on her seat, a trace of worry in her elegant eyes. “Yingxue is feeling uneasy because of the battle between the two Your Highness. It’s not good to let this matter worry her again, but Grandpa has to be on guard for the sake of the Marquis Manor and Yingxue.”
Su Qingzhi looked at her with approval in his eyes. “You’re a thoughtful and good child.”
Su Han smiled and said, “Yingxue saved my life and helped me escape from the abyss. I will repay her kindness. Besides, the Su family is bound to prosper and fall together. I must think for my sister.”
Su Qingzhi was very pleased. He had been fighting for many years, so he couldn’t care about his children. However, he still felt sorry for Su Han.
“Han’er, don’t worry about the past. When you feel better, I will find you a good marriage.”
“Grandpa doesn’t have to worry.” Su Han’s eyes were filled with sadness. “Han’er has brought shame to the Su family. Grandpa already loves Han’er a lot by not blaming me. From now on…Han’er will stay at home to serve my parents and accompany them for the rest of their lives.”
“Nonsense! It was the Regional Prince’s Mansion that made things difficult for you. When did you bring shame to the Su family? As long as Grandpa is here, you can be like Yingxue and be a free child. If you have someone you like, Grandpa will personally go and propose marriage for you!” Su Qingzhi’s tone was sonorous, and his deep voice was filled with deep affection.
Su Han’s eyes reddened instantly.
She was the eldest daughter of the Su family’s eldest branch. Although her father did not inherit the title of nobility, he was still a high official in the court. Her mother was also born into a prestigious family. Therefore, she had been educated since she was young to bear the responsibility of the family, set an example, and do what the eldest daughter should do. The rules of etiquette were the shackles that she could not break free from.
Therefore, even though the Regional Prince’s Mansion had treated her like that, she did not dare to resist and took it on with all her might.
Later on, it was because of her life that she decided to break off all ties. In the end, it was also to preserve the face of the family.
She knew that she, Su Han, had become a laughingstock in Jiang Du City.
She still had to force a smile. She couldn’t lose the demeanor of an eldest daughter and couldn’t let her parents worry.
However, her grandpa’s words today touched her greatly.
A tear flowed out of the corner of her eye. “Thankyou for your love, Grandpa.”
“Don’t say such polite words. If you’re bored at home, come and find Yingxue and Miaomiao. You’re all girls of the Su family. You must live for yourself and live a wonderful life.”
After Su Qingzhi said this, he sighed heavily, as if he had recalled some heavy past.
