Su Zongwen replied and went out the door, Su Yunyan brought the three children to the inner room, Shen Zhu brought the tea he brewed out there, and turned to go inside the house.

The four people in the room sat facing each other. Su Zhizhong sighed with emotion while looking at Noble Consort Su: "After twenty-three years, little sister's appearance has not changed much."

"Big brother, you really know how to joke. It's been over twenty years, and I'm already old." Noble Consort Su sighed lightly. She particularly missed the time at the Su Family back then.

The few of them chatted for a while, and not long after, Su Zongwen brought Su Zhiyan and Madame Xu back. The moment they saw Noble Consort Su, both of them were startled, and became slightly agitated.

Su Zongwen did not go forward to disturb them, and instead bid his farewells to the few of them before going into the hut to look for Shen Zhu and the others. Today, Su Yixuan and the rest were all helping Yuzhu Pavilion, so the small hut was not as lively as it was in the past when they came back.

"Second brother, second sister." Seeing the two in a daze, Noble Consort Su got up and walked over with a smile.

"Little sister, is it really you?" Su Zhiyan's eyes were slightly hot, she pulled Noble Consort Su's hand and carefully sized him up, then asked with concern, "Have you been well these past few years?"

"Alright, I'm fine." Noble Consort Su nodded her head. No matter if it was before or now, Su Zhizhong and Su Zhiyan were both her doted on older brothers the most.

"As long as you're doing well, as long as you're doing well." After Su Zhiyan heard this, his heart was also comforted a lot.

"You siblings haven't seen each other for a long time, so I'm sure you have a lot to say. I'll bring the wangfei and sister-in-law to my room for a while." Madame Chen suggested.

"Madam Su's words are reasonable." Madame Ye also agreed.

Su Zhizhong and the other two siblings were sitting in the living room.

Noble Consort Su and his two elder brothers chatted for a while, then they talked about the situation in the capital.

"Big brother, second brother, all of you have suffered greatly over these years." Noble Consort Su looked at his brother, who had aged a lot, and felt both heartache and remorse.

If she hadn't been tricked by the empress, she might have been able to preserve her Su Family and not make Su Zhizhong and his to suffer so much.

"Don't worry, I will definitely return your innocence together with Ling'er."

Su Zhizhong had previously heard Ming Chengyan mention it before, so when he heard this news, his heart became a lot calmer. However, Su Zhiyan didn't know about this matter from the inside, but now that he suddenly heard this news, his heart became extremely excited.

"This is a good thing. If Su Family can clear the sky of our grievances, then the suffering we have endured in this mountain wilderness for over twenty years will not be in vain."

Su Zhiyan lifted his teacup and took a sip of tea, he was extremely excited.

After saying this, Su Zhiyan's expression slightly paused, as if he had thought of something, and sighed: "It's just that we fought with Third Brother once, but who would've thought that we would end up with such an outcome."

Su Zhizhong also let out a light sigh, and said: "The so-called good and evil will always be rewarded, and those who commit injustice will always die. All of this is done by him, no matter what the result is, he can't blame anyone else."

"Alright, big brother, second brother, don't think about these unhappy things anymore. Once Ling'er has settled this case, you can return to the capital. Our lives will only get better and better in the future." Noble Consort Su hurriedly said.

"Little sister is right, let those unhappy things pass." Su Zhiyan agreed, and then they changed the topic, and started to chat happily.

On the other side, when Su Zongwen entered the house, he immediately welcomed her. With a curious look at the outside, he said: "Big brother, is that madam really father's sister, and is she our aunt? How come I've never heard my father mention that besides my second and third uncle, there are other relatives in the family? Brother, do you know about these things? "

"Dad and mom haven't told me either." Su Zongwen lightly coughed as he explained.

"Then wouldn't that mean we picked up a cheap aunt?" Su Yunyan's eyes lit up.

"Yan'er, pay attention to your words." Su Zongwen looked at her and asked.

"Oh …" Su Yunyan immediately covered his mouth and hid to Shen Zhu's side, he did not dare to continue asking, so as to not say anything wrong.

Su Zhizhong never brought up the matters of the Su Family in front of them. Regarding the matter of the Su Family being demoted, Su Yunyan and Su Zongwen had heard the news from the Madame Chen's mouth, they only knew that their family was framed and demoted to such a remote place.

The original owner of the terracotta soldier was the third house of Su Family, also known as the third uncle of the siblings.

Su Yunyan only knew that her Third Uncle was called Su Zhiqi, but did not know anything else.

"Brother Wen, it's getting late, I need to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch."

Su Yunyan rolled up his sleeves. "Sister-in-law, let me help you."

Kitchen

"Sister-in-law, what are we having for lunch today?" When Su Yunyan thought about Shen Zhu's cooking skills, he could not help but drool.

"I will make an egg dumpling today. Madam came all the way here and is also a relative of the family. The dumplings are very nice and beautiful. It's just right for me to eat this egg dumpling today." Shen Zhu laughed and said.

"Sister-in-law, what do you need my help with?" Just by hearing the name, Su Yunyan felt that the dumpling was delicious.

"Sure, prepare some dishes and meat for me. Also prepare some mushrooms for me to chop into pieces."

"Alright, I'll go now."

The filling of the Egg-Fried Rice was unique to Shen Zhu, it was not the same as the Egg-Fried Rice that she had eaten in her previous life. While Su Yunyan was preparing the filling, she had prepared the seasoning and the eggs.

First, he beat the eggs into a bowl and stirred them evenly. Then he added some salt and spread them out into a round skin like a pancake. Then he put the meat into the bowl and turned it over with his chopsticks to make dumplings.

Although it would take a long time to cook, it was still early today.

When the dumplings were done, Shen Zhu cooked a few more dishes. They were also her specialty, the sweet and sour fish, the red-braised tofu, the Returning wok meat, and the East Slope meat. Finally, she added a soup, just in case it was not enough to eat.

Su Yunyan carried the dishes to the table and smelled the enticing aroma. Noble Consort Su couldn't help but praise it, although she had already told her that Shen Zhu's culinary skills were superb, she was only able to experience it herself today.

The whole family happily ate a meal, the few of them gathered together and chatted for a long time, the few adults chatted for a while after dinner in the outer rooms, while Shen Zhu, Su Zongwen and Su Yunyan and the child walked into the room.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, I just heard from mother that our aunt has a great background. Mother said that she is the imperial concubine Noble Consort of the palace." Su Yunyan more or less understood a bit about the affairs of the Prince Su, but he never thought that the mother of the Prince Su was actually his own aunt.

"So that's how it is." Shen Zhu nodded and played with Ruanruan who was in his arms.

Since Noble Consort Su was a guest of the wangfei, she could more or less guess a little of her identity. Thus, when she heard Su Yunyan's words, she was not surprised in the slightest.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, are you guys not surprised at all when you hear this news?" Su Yunyan looked at the two of them strangely. She was extremely shocked when she heard about this.

"So aunt is actually the imperial concubine Noble Consort of the palace. I didn't think that her identity would be so valuable." Seeing Su Yunyan's disappointed look, Shen Zhu immediately changed his mind.

"…" Su Yunyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and curled his lips, "Sister-in-law, you're not acting at all."

"Forget about it. No matter what sort of status you have, you're still my aunt." Su Yunyan did not dwell on this issue and started to talk about other topics with Shen Zhu with a smile.

In the blink of an eye, it was Shen Shi, if it was any later, the sun would set, and Noble Consort Su did not linger after seeing the situation, he knew that his Su Family would return to the capital soon anyways, so would they have more chances of meeting each other in the future?

Shen Zhu and Su Zongwen naturally followed them back.

Su Zhizhong and the rest personally saw the Madame Ye and the others out. As they watched the horse carriage slowly move, they bowed and spoke in unison, "We offer our respectful greetings to the wangfei and madam."
