Chapter 320 She Wants to Be a Princess
Su Yunrou endured the burning pain and kept crying, but she heard everything Su Lihan said clearly.
Su Lihan humiliated her like this, she would never let her go!
The ten strokes of the cane were quickly completed, and Nanny Guan stepped aside, still with no expression on her face.
"Second Miss, the old marquis told you to remember this lesson and not to make the same mistake again."
"Yes, thank you for your teachings, Grandfather!"
Su Yunrou bowed, but when she moved, her legs hurt even more.
"Madame Guan, you hit her too lightly. What if she runs away again?"
Su Lihan was extremely dissatisfied. After the ten strokes of the stick, Su Yunrou's legs were fine. Wasn't it too easy?
My grandfather's heart is so evil that it's almost out of his armpits. Su Yunrou did something that brought shame to the Marquis's Mansion, but the punishment was so light. It was really easy for Su Yunrou.
Nanny Guan glanced at Su Lihan coldly.
"Fifth Miss, be careful with your words!"
For the old marquis's sake, I had used heavy hands when I hit Su Yunrou just now. I couldn't let the emperor think that the marquis's mansion was protecting Su Yunrou.
But now Su Lihan's brainless words are very likely to make the emperor suspicious.
"I didn't play well, but I'm not allowed to say anything. It's really... Ouch!"
Before Su Lihan could finish her words, Nanny Guan hit her with a stick.
"The old marquis said that if anyone takes something that is not prudent enough, he should be beaten with a stick, so that he can wake up."
Xiao Kang, who was about to scold her, swallowed her words when she heard that this was the old marquis's intention.
When Nanny Guan saw that no one spoke, she bowed to Jiang and left.
Su Qingwan glanced at the confused eunuch and said, "You can return to the palace now."
The eunuch nodded and ran away.
When Qingda saw this, he chased after him and gave him the purse as usual.
Su Yunrou saw Su Lihan covering her face in pain, and the unhappy feeling in her heart subsided a little.
"Fifth sister, you didn't deserve the beating! You should remember to be careful with your words and actions in the future, so as not to be beaten again."
"Bah! Don't be so proud. You should think carefully about how to be a concubine in the future! I am different from you. Even if I am not a princess in the future, I will be the wife of a wealthy family. My status is many times higher than yours. You don't need to teach me a lesson!"
Su Lihan said with disdain, and looked at Su Yunrou with even more disdain.
Liu glared at Su Lihan, her eyes sharp like two poisonous arrows piercing Su Lihan fiercely.
She is indeed a lowly creature raised by Xiaokang family. She was happy to see her sister of the same clan being punished. She even dreamed of becoming a princess without thinking whether she had the fate to do so.
"Fifth girl, our mansion hasn't even divided up the rooms yet! Why are you gloating over other people's misfortunes? With your current appearance, do you really think you can climb up to a high position? Don't you think about which of those princes would look at you with a straight eye and want to be your princess? Ha!"
She used to be in charge of the household affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, and Su Lihan was afraid of her. Now, after being scolded by her in person, it was like going back to the past for a moment, and it was very embarrassing!
But she soon came to her senses. Liu was no longer the mistress of the house, so there was no need for her to be afraid of her. However, before she could speak, she heard Su Qingwan say:
"Aunt, you can't be so absolute. If there is a prince who really likes the fifth sister's kindness and elegance, it's hard to say. It's a pity for the second sister. She was once a princess, but now she has become a concubine. I don't know if she will be bullied by those girls in the backyard of the palace after she enters the palace. It's really pitiful to think about it!"
Su Qingwan looked at Su Yunrou with regret. She didn't expect that what she said at the beginning would come true.
Su Yunrou really became the concubine of Prince Rui, haha, this is so interesting!
In their previous life, these two people were very affectionate and used the Jiang family's wealth to gain that position. Without this help in this life, they will never be able to ascend the throne.
But they are still alive, and it's time to take them away.
Liu felt like she was stabbed in the back by Su Qingwan's words. She felt as if her heart was leaking air, and she felt cold and extremely uncomfortable!
Her daughter was a beautiful girl, but now she had to be a concubine of a sickly prince. It was a great shame and humiliation.
Xiao Kang stroked her hair proudly and said, "Li Han, let's go. Your aunt and the others are going to go back and cry behind closed doors. We should not delay their sadness."
After seeing enough of the excitement, Xiaokang was in a good mood, and even her worries about her son were relieved a lot.
Su Lihan snorted arrogantly. She was now waiting for the day when Su Yunrou would be carried out through the back door. When that day came, she would sprinkle salt on the door and let all the bad luck follow Su Yunrou.
But Su Qingwan was very nice just now. She said that the prince might fall in love with her.
That’s not true!
With her good looks, there's no doubt that she will become the Princess of Qi.
Everyone in the front hall left, and Su Qingwan accompanied Jiang back to Helin Courtyard.
"I didn't expect Su Yunrou to be so bold. She was wavering between Prince Rui and Prince Qi even though she was already engaged." Jiang sighed.
Su Qingwan took a piece of dessert and ate it slowly, only laughing softly when she heard the words.
"Mother, you are wrong. Su Yunrou is not wavering, but she is unwilling to be the princess of King Rui."
"Why is she unwilling? Didn't she always like King Rui?"
"In fact, she is not the only one who is unwilling. My uncle, aunt, grandfather, and grandmother Kang are all unwilling to accept it!" Su Qingwan drank a cup of sweet tea before continuing:
"Prince Rui is in poor health and is imprisoned in the palace. He will basically be a useless person in the future. It will not benefit the Marquisate at all if Su Yunrou marries him. That's why we invited Prince Qi to the Marquisate last time."
"But the old marquis probably forgot that the emperor hates these people fawning on his son. This time Su Yunrou secretly went to find the prince of Qi. From the emperor's point of view, he probably thought it was his grandfather's order. So the beating should have been done by the maid in the palace, but it was left to the marquis's mansion to do it."
"In fact, I just wanted to test Grandfather. If Su Yunrou hadn't been punished today, it would probably take less than an hour for someone from the palace to come and deal with the Marquis' Mansion."
Her words made Jiang stunned. She never thought that the emperor would think so much and even suspect the old marquis.
"Now that the fight is over, can we pass?" Jiang asked nervously.
"Don't worry, mother. You asked someone to invite Nanny Guan over to remind grandfather. If he agreed to let Nanny Guan do it, it means he understands the emperor's intention."
Jiang was relieved then. Without waiting for the two to say anything more, Aunt Rong opened the curtain and led a maid in.
"Meet the Third Madam, meet the Fourth Miss!"
"Madame Guan, why are you here? Please sit down and talk!" Jiang asked her to sit down and talk.
Nanny Guan didn't sit down, but asked the two maids following behind her to bring up the tray.
