Amelia Su shook her head, her eyes flickering.

How come Su Leyun, a country girl, can win the favor of the King of Jin, but she wants to marry into the Hanlin family with no real power!

Thinking of this, a bright and smiling face came to mind. At the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, she accidentally lost her golden hairpin, but Prince Yu picked it up and handed it back to her personally...

"Wan'er, what are you thinking about?"

The old lady called her softly.

Su Wan'er came back to her senses, lowered her eyebrows, twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and said uneasily: "Grandma, let's put this matter aside for now. Ever since Sister Yun'er came back, I have cut off all contact with Mr. Li's family, and now I have …”

She blushed with embarrassment. Although she didn't finish her words, the old lady understood what she meant.

I just broke off the relationship and came to discuss marriage again. My daughter's family is so shy, how can I be embarrassed?

"You have been engaged since you were young. How did the Li boy offend you? If you are wronged, you should tell your grandmother."

The old lady looked at Su Waner with concern, and asked the girl to bring an iced handkerchief and apply it on her red and swollen eyes.

Su Waner hesitated to speak, bit her lower lip, and finally spoke.

"Now that sister Yun'er is the legitimate daughter, the marriage should be hers. I was afraid that my sister would be unhappy, so I broke off all contact with him."

Seeing Su Wan'er's rough and pitiful appearance, the old lady's heart almost broke.

Since Su Leyun came back, her Wan'er had suffered a lot of grievances. The more the old lady felt sorry for Su Wan'er, the more dissatisfied she felt with Su Leyun.

"You should think about her. She has become the King of Jin a long time ago, so I don't want you to give in."

The old lady pressed the corner of her lips with a handkerchief, and there was a trace of contempt in her eyes. After all, she was a rough woman who grew up in the countryside. She didn't know how to be reserved, and she actually talked to the King of Jin in private.

"grandmother."

Su Waner lowered her eyebrows, her face turned red, and she stopped talking.

The old lady looked at her with pity.

"It's getting late. Go back and rest. Don't worry, grandma will make plans for you."

Su Waner nodded obediently, blessed her body, and returned to her yard.

The next morning, the clear chirping of birds broke into the house along with the first ray of sunrise.

The long eyelashes like butterfly wings fluttered slowly. Su Leyun opened her eyes, and the lotus-pink curtain came into her eyes. It took her a while to come back to her senses. She was really back. All the things in the previous life had not happened yet. Her mother, brother, and grandfather were all here. She She hasn't married into the Li family yet, so she has wasted half her life.

The curtain was opened from the outside, Lian Xin was holding new clothes, and Cui Lu was standing at the bedside holding toiletries, looking at her with joy.

"This slave congratulates the young lady."

Both girls are blessed together.

Su Leyun then remembered that today was the day she entered the family tree. She raised her hand to let the two of them get up and let them dress up.

After cleaning up, Su Leyun looked at himself in the mirror with his hair on his temples slightly slanted and his jade hairpin inserted horizontally, and a coldness crept up to the end of his eyes.

After several fights in the previous life, her father and grandmother agreed to let her enter the family tree. Now, with just a word from the King of Jin, her father invited the clan elders out in the winter moon.

How could she not understand in her previous life that this father only had rights in his eyes, and there was no mother and son at all.

"Miss, Madam has sent someone to hurry up. Let's go to the main hall quickly."

The little girl urged at the door, Lian Xin and Cui Liu followed Su Leyun and went to the main hall together.

In the main hall, the mahogany furniture had been polished by the servants. Facing the rising sun, it reflected warm light. A wintersweet bloomed in full bloom on a high stool, filling the room with a delicate fragrance.

"Yun'er."

As soon as Sun Jiarou saw Su Leyun, she stretched out her hand to let her sit next to her, looking at the light blue in her eyes with pity.

"When the ceremony is over, you can go back to the house and get some sleep."

Su Leyun smiled and took Sun Jiarou's hand, acting coquettishly.

"My daughter can't be so weak, but my mother has been busy all morning with her daughter's affairs."

Sun Jiarou nodded her little nose lovingly, her eyes filled with relief.

"For you, no matter how tired my mother is, I am willing to do it."

When she first heard from King Jin that Wen Po was dead, she almost fainted. She was afraid that without the proof, her daughter would not be included in the genealogy. Who would have thought that the big stone in her heart would be solved just like this.

Su Leyun knew that Sun Jiarou was happy, so he followed her and showed a happy look.

The maids placed tea and fruit plates on various tables. After a while, the clan elders gradually arrived. Finally, the clan leader was led to his seat by Su Hou.

"This is Le Yun who just returned two days ago."

Su Changqing was wearing a soap-colored robe, leaning forward slightly, introducing Su Leyun to the clan leader.

Su Leyun walked slowly and stood in front of everyone, folded his hands on his waist, blessed his body, and saluted the elders.

"Well, she is indeed the daughter of my Su family. She has everyone's style."

The clan leader stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction, and the others also nodded.

The old lady saw everyone's reactions in her eyes and patted Su Waner, who was standing by her side, comfortingly.

Amelia Su lowered her head and forced a smile to indicate that she was fine.

So what if it's on the family tree? After all, his name can only be ranked second to his own. To tell the truth, Su Leyun is just a second lady.

Looking around among the people, after confirming that everyone was present, the clan leader spoke.

"Let's go to the ancestral hall."

The patriarch was helped to his feet by a servant, and a group of people went to the ancestral hall.

The door of the ancestral hall is opened, and the ancestors' memorial tablets are neatly lined up behind the red and gold carved incense burners. The strong smell of incense in the room makes people breathless.

Everyone took the incense sticks and knelt on the futon according to their clan rank.

The patriarch took a large and heavy mahogany box from the boy's hand, carefully placed it in the center of the table, and opened it solemnly.

A book with a dark blue cover and yellowing paper lay quietly in it.

Taking out the book with both hands, the clan leader turned to the last page in front of everyone, picked up the ink-stained wolf hair, and added Su Leyun's name on it.

"There is a girl named Leyun, who is beautiful and intelligent. Now she is included in the family tree. I hope my ancestors will protect her."

Su Leyun kowtowed heavily, then inserted the incense stick in his hand into the incense burner. After bowing three times, he retreated behind Sun Jiarou.

Then everyone gradually lit up the incense. After the ceremony was completed, the old lady held Su Waner's hand and was about to go out when she was called by the clan leader.

"Now that the legitimate daughter has returned and entered the family tree, should people who are not from the Su family remove their names? I wonder what you guys think?"

After the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Su Waner.

Su Waner's face turned red and she stood there, unable to move forward or retreat, looking at the old lady at a loss.

Although she is not from the Su family, she has been raised in the Hou Mansion for more than ten years and has taken the title of legitimate daughter. Now if her name is removed, she will no longer be protected by the Su Mansion, and her status will be embarrassing...

Not to mention Prince Yu, she will not even be able to reach the top of the Li Hanlin family.

The old lady stood in front of Su Waner and held her hands towards the patriarch.

"Wan'er was raised in the Su family since she was a child and was named after Su. Since it has been included in the family tree, there is no reason to remove it."
