The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Chapter 480 Sisters Falling Into The Water

480 Sisters Falling Into The Water
Two days later, Su Yanyu came to pick Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan at noon.
He knocked on the door. “Miss Liu, Young Master Chu, are you ready?”
Su Yanyu was wearing an apricot-yellow brocade robe. The cloud patterns embroidered on his clothes were golden in color. The belt at his waist matched the embroidery, and the accessories at his waist were made of jade. He was handsome and looked like a proud young man. His expression was animated, and an innate noble aura lingered around him.
When the door opened, Su Yanyu’s eyes lit up when he saw Chu Yan and Liu Sanniang walking out hand in hand. He smiled. “What a perfect match!”
One was calm and warm, while the other was cold and noble. It was unknown if it was Su Yanyu’s imagination, but after he said this, Chu Yan looked at him less coldly.
Liu Sanniang smiled and did not say anything.
Chu Yan held her hand and squeezed it gently. He glanced at Su Yanyu and inexplicably felt that he was much more pleasing to the eye. Chu Yan said calmly, “Let’s go.”
Su Yanyu smiled and said, “It’s about time.”
After getting into the carriage, Su Yanyu sat at the edge. He looked at Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan sitting side by side, holding hands. He felt a little jealous for some reason.
“Xia Qiluo’s birthday this year is grander than usual. The Empress wants to choose a husband for her, but Xia Qiluo has a bad temper. I wonder who’ll be so unlucky to be her husband.”
Xia Qiluo was born of the empress and was doted upon by the emperor. She was pampered and arrogant, but she seemed to have become much more low-key recently. He did not know what kind of lessons she had been taught.
Su Yanyu couldn’t help but ask Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, do you think Xia Qiluo will ever be able to get married?”
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Marriage is destined.”
Su Yanyu stopped asking. He wanted to say something, but he did not know what Liu Sanniang liked. He felt that if he talked too much, Liu Sanniang would find him annoying.
When they arrived at the palace, Su Yanyu got out of the carriage.
There were many carriages parked outside the palace, and people were arriving one after another.
Families with higher status usually arrived late.
Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan got out of the carriage and followed Su Yanyu into the palace.
Su Yanyu took out the jade invitation and the palace guard let him in after checking it.
Su Yanyu brought Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan into the imperial garden and met many people gathered in twos and threes. They knew Su Yanyu and were surprised to see him trying so hard to please Liu Sanniang.
Su Yanyu was famous in the capital for being a jerk. If not for the fact that he was Marquis Su’s only son, he might already have been beaten to death for his deeds.
Everyone went forward and greeted Su Yanyu. He introduced Liu Sanniang to everyone seriously. “This is Miss Liu.”
Then, he leaned close to them and added under his breath. “As well as my future shifu.”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before understanding. Whoever could tame Su Yanyu was definitely worthy of their respect.
They went forward and greeted her politely. “Hello, Miss Liu.”
Liu Sanniang replied with a faint smile. “Hello.”
After greeting each other, they went their separate ways. There were pavilions everywhere in the palace. In the pavilions, there were tea and snacks placed on the table. There were guards standing by the gates of various places to remind people where they weren’t supposed to trespass.
The scenery was good, and the weather was pleasant. Many people went to the lake, so Su Yanyu took Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan there too.
Before they reached the lake, they saw a few palace servants running hurriedly. Su Yanyu knew at a glance that something had happened. He stopped one of the palace servants. “What has happened over there?”
The palace servant was pulled back. When he saw that it was Su Yanyu, he hurriedly said, “The two daughters of the Left Censor-in-chief fell into the lake. They have been saved but both of them are unconscious. Lord Su, I will take your leave. I still have to inform the Left Censor and his wife.”
Su Yanyu released him and the palace servant immediately left in a hurry.
Su Yanyu looked at Liu Sanniang and asked. “Miss Liu, this kind of thing happens every year. Let’s go and see what’s going on.”
Liu Sanniang could tell that Su Yanyu really wanted to go and watch the show. When Liu Sanniang nodded, Su Yanyu’s eyes lit up and he quickened his pace.
Soon, they arrived at the pavilion by the lake. Many people had gathered there already. The two drenched girls lying on the ground were being hugged by their respective maids who were arguing fiercely.
The maid in green pointed angrily at the maid in yellow. “Why can’t the Second Miss tolerate the Eldest Miss? She even wanted to ruin Eldest Miss’s reputation on such an occasion.”
The maid in yellow was also very angry. Her entire body was trembling. She gritted her teeth and said, “Nonsense. Second Miss didn’t push Eldest Miss. It’s just…”
The maid in green interrupted her rudely. “It’s just what? Qing Mei, are you trying to play the blame game? This concerns Eldest Miss’s reputation. Would Eldest Miss destroy her reputation to slander Second Miss? Everyone present saw that it was the Second Miss who pushed Eldest Miss down. This is the palace, not a place where you can slander others.”
The maid in yellow was so angry that she was trembling, but she could not refute her. Her face turned red as she said with difficulty, “Qing Li, don’t spout nonsense. Second Miss is not such a person.”
Qing Li, who was dressed in green, wiped her tears. She hugged the drenched girl and shook her. “Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss, wake up. I know that you’ve been wronged. Wake up quickly and explain yourself. Boohoo…”
Qing Mei was so angry that her vision turned black. However, she knew that if she did not explain this matter clearly, her Miss would lose her reputation. She shook the woman in her arms. “Second Miss, Second Miss, please wake up.”
As soon as Su Yanyu arrived, he asked around and quickly understood what had happened.
Zhang Heng’s two daughters, Zhang Yufei and Zhang Shuangshuang, fell into the lake when they were collecting lotus flowers and lotus seeds in the lake. Zhang Yufei fell into the lake first, pulling Zhang Shuangshuang along with her. After that, Zhang Yufei was the first to be rescued by Li Jing, the Right Censor-in-chief, who was Zhang Shuangshuang’s fiancé.
He was Zhang Shuangshuang’s fiancé, which was what made this matter become complicated. Su Yanyu lowered his voice and said, “No matter what, Zhang Shuangshuang will have to suffer.”
