At that moment, Madam Su entered the house. Seeing that Su Yan was about to cry, her heart ached for her daughter. She could not care less about anything else and opened her mouth to speak to Old Master Su.
“Dad, don’t scare Su Yan anymore. Because of what happened that day, Su Yan has been having nightmares for several days.” Madam Su’s words carried a faint complaint. Although she knew that Old Master Su had done the right thing, she just couldn’t bear to see her daughter suffer.
When Old Master Su, who still wanted to educate Su Yan, heard these words, he decided not to anymore. He was the one who doted on Su Yan the most in the entire family.
Su Li was really lucky that he was not raised crooked under such circumstances.
“It’s not grandpa’s fault.. It’s all because Su Yan has gone too far and even had to trouble grandpa to step in.” Su Yan quickly said after sensing her grandfather’s guilt.
“Haha, this is my good granddaughter. Su Yan, I’m very happy that you think so much of grandfather.”
Old Master Su saw that Su Yan did not seem to be giving them a perfunctory explanation. Instead, she was sincerely admitting her mistake. Old Master Su laughed out loud. Yan ‘er had become sensible.
“Yan ‘er, I’m very happy that you can think like this. Father’s Yan ‘er has grown up.”
Father Su, who was sitting at the side, touched Su Yan’s hair with emotion. A faint smile appeared on his usually serious face. They had already prepared for Su Yan to throw a tantrum with them. He did not expect her to say such a thing.
Just like that, the family untied the knot in their hearts and had a reunion dinner together.
After the meal, Su Yan brought Old Master Su to the study room. Old Master Su looked at the mysterious Su Yan and quietly waited for her explanation.
He did not feel that there was anything wrong with putting aside the matters of the imperial court to accompany his granddaughter. In his eyes, Su Yan’s matters were no small matter.
Moreover, he was happy to be close to his granddaughter. When he did not see Su Yan pull him away, his son’s eyes were wide with jealousy.
Su Yan circled the study room a few times. She had already forgotten where she had placed the book that Su Qiao had given her after such a long time.
Finally, when she reached the third circle, Su Yan discovered the book.
Old Master Su looked at Su Yan with puzzlement as she handed him a very ordinary book, “Su Yan, is there anything in this book that you don’t understand that you need to ask grandfather about? No problem. Tell me, what’s the problem?”
Old Master Su said with a forthright face. Not to mention anything else, he was still very proud of his knowledge. After all, he had once been the grand tutor of the crown prince.
“No, grandfather. This book was given to me by Su Qiao. I think there’s something wrong with it. I want to show it to grandfather.”
Su Yan could not address Su Qiao as her cousin right now. Although she could not tell him about her rebirth, she wanted to remind grandfather that it was okay for her uncle’s family to be unfaithful. As long as her grandfather was wary of her uncle’s family, it would be difficult for them to do anything.
Old Master Su took the book from Su Yan’s hands with a serious expression. He did not ignore Su Yan’s words as if she was a child. Instead, he chose to treat it with caution. It was this caution that allowed the Su family to stand firm in the imperial court for a hundred years.
Old Master Su took the book and sat on the chair. He even asked Su Yan to sit down as well.
Su Yan looked at Old Master Su’s cautious expression and heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She was really worried that her grandfather would not take her words seriously.
Grandpa Su flipped through the book in his hand and found something in a corner. The more he read, the more terrifying his expression became.
