Chapter 776 Shen Tang
Chapter 776 Shen Tang
Old Mrs. Min looked at Tong Huaqiong.
Tong Huaqiong immediately understood what Mrs. Min meant.
The melon has been eaten, the aunt and nephew Lu have lost face, Su Chengmin is unharmed, and it is time for the ladies to leave.
Tong Huaqiong coughed twice and said to Mrs. Min, "Aunt Min, it's getting late. We should go back."
After hearing what Tong Huaqiong said, the ladies knew that they were no longer needed to bear witness and could leave.
So they all said goodbye.
Some ladies even expressed their gratitude to Mrs. Su for hosting the banquet.
Old Mrs. Su had a gloomy face. The Su family had suffered a great loss of face today.
She was traumatized by this birthday party.
This thank you is purely out of yin and yang to her.
"Cousin Yin'er."
"Cousin Yin'er."
Su Chengji learned that Lu Yiner and the madman were trapped in the house and rushed over in a hurry.
The ladies hadn't left yet. When they saw Su Chengji coming, their eyes popped out. One crisis after another arose.
The Su family always causes trouble.
Su Chengji pushed everyone aside and saw Lu Yin'er sitting on the ground with disheveled clothes. He asked, "Why are you here, cousin? Didn't mother say that grandmother wanted to pair up the second daughter of the Lin family with my eldest brother in order to break up his marriage?"
"Wait, who is this man?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent for a moment.
Mrs. Lu and Old Lady Su wished they could drown Su Chengji.
Su Chengji's words confirmed that the conspiracy was aimed at Su Chengmin, and also dragged Miss Lin Er into it.
Everyone was in an uproar.
Su Shihang could no longer treat this matter as an internal household affair, and slapped Lu in the face.
Cursed: "You did a good job."
Facing her furious son, Old Mrs. Su avoided looking at him.
He shouted angrily at Su Chengji: "Chengji, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Su Chengji said, "Grandma, I'm not talking nonsense. You said that a merchant's daughter is not worthy of Big Brother, and only aristocratic families can be worthy of Big Brother. You also said that Miss Lin Er has a gentle personality, and the Lin family pays attention to rules. If Miss Lin Er marries into the Su family, she will definitely persuade Big Brother to get close to the Su family and be filial to Grandma."
Su Chengji's public disclosure of Old Madam Su's plan to use Miss Lin Er to break up the marriage between Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua doesn't mean he has good intentions.
He didn't like Su Chengmin and was angry that his grandmother ignored him, the grandson who grew up by her side, but always praised Su Chengmin, who grew up in the Min family, for his promising future.
He was about to trample on Old Lady Su's face.
Let her see that even though you have done everything for your eldest grandson, he is not grateful to you.
Seeing Su Chengmin looking at Old Lady Su with disappointment, Su Chengji felt a surge of satisfaction in his heart.
Old Mrs. Su was so embarrassed when her grandson revealed his vicious thoughts in public that she took off her shoes, grabbed Su Chengji and beat him up.
Mrs. Lu felt sorry for Su Chengji and stepped forward to block it, but was beaten with the soles of her shoes by Old Lady Su.
Old Madam Su didn't think there was anything wrong with plotting against Miss Lin Er. She was also considering the future of the Su family.
The Su family was finally raised from farmers to scholars by Su Shihang, but they are still looked down upon by the real wealthy and aristocratic families in Shengjing. One of her grandsons has fallen into depravity and married a merchant, while the other is uneducated. How will the Su family survive in the future?
She didn't want her descendants to slide down the social ladder, so she had no choice but to find a way to have her most promising grandson marry into the aristocratic Lin family.
Mrs. Lin’s face turned pale.
Great, the Su family is scheming against the Lin family.
"Sir Su, you are also a second-rank official in the court. Is this how your family plotted against my daughter? What evil has my daughter suffered that you have targeted her?"
"The Lin family and the Su family don't need to interact with each other anymore."
The Su family completely offended the Lin family.
Su Shihang kept apologizing to Mrs. Lin, but Mrs. Lin refused to accept his apologies. She was so angry that she ordered people to find her two daughters and left with them without even saying hello.
After Mrs. Lin left, the other ladies also left.
The Su family's actions completely lost the support of the people in Shengjing.
Which guest attending the banquet does not have a daughter who is about to get married? If the Su family can plot against Miss Lin Er this time, they can plot against girls from other families next time.
If Lu was able to scheme against Su Chengmin this time, she will be able to scheme against another family’s daughter for her own son next time.
Just because Su Chengmin can escape doesn’t mean others can escape.
After returning home, the ladies exaggerated the disgusting things that happened in the Su family in front of their husbands.
Some of them are political enemies of Su Shihang in the officialdom, and they are ready to bring Su Shihang down because of this incident.
After Su Chengmin sent Tong Huaqiong, Gu Taohua and others out of the Su Mansion, he turned around and returned to the Su Mansion.
The matter has not been dealt with yet, Gao Ming and Old Lady Min are still staying in the Su Mansion.
Su Chengmin came to Min Baozhen's yard, where Old Lady Su was beating Lu.
Su Shihang turned a blind eye.
Su Chengmin yelled angrily, and Mrs. Su threw down the shoes in her hand, held Su Chengmin's hand and cried: "Chengmin, I am doing this for your own good. The Lin family has been a noble family for generations, and only a girl like this is worthy of you."
"You married a girl from the Lin family. Even your mother in the underworld would be happy for you. When your mother was alive, Mrs. Lu liked to compete with her. Your marriage is better than the inherited one, and you have indirectly avenged your mother."
Su Chengmin stared coldly at Old Madam Su, sneered and said, "Don't mention my mother. My mother's grievances were not only caused by Lu, but the biggest grievances were caused by Lord Su and you. Don't pretend to be confused. Why did Lu dare to let my mother suffer? It was because of you and Lord Su's indulgence."
When mentioning Min Baozhen, Su Chengmin didn't even want to call her father, and directly called Su Shihang "Sir Su".
Su Shihang's breathing became turbid.
"I'll say it again, I will only marry Gu Taohua. If you dare to plot against me again, you know the consequences."
Su Chengmin looked at Lu Yiner.
Lu Yiner trembled twice.
"Gao Ming, you are the victim in this matter, what do you want to do?"
Su Chengmin looked at Gao Ming and began to resolve the issue between Lu Yiner and Gao Ming.
Lu wanted to speak but she didn't dare to open her mouth due to Su Chengmin's cold and fierce attitude.
Gao Ming said: "Although I was plotted against, I can't guarantee what others will say. My reputation has been damaged to some extent, and the Su family must compensate me."
Su Chengmin nodded and said, "Of course, how do you want the Su family to compensate you?"
Su Shihang gritted his teeth and said, "Since your reputation is related to Lu Yin'er, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Tell the public that it was Lu Yin'er who deliberately seduced you. I will take the lead and have Lu Yin'er drowned."
Lu Yiner's drowning in the pond will at least restore the reputation of the Su family.
He also gave an explanation to his son and Gao Ming.
Lu Yiner's breathing stagnated.
She knew that her uncle was cruel, but she didn't expect him to be so cruel as to take her life.
Gao Ming was shocked. Outsiders all said that Lord Su was cruel, but this cruelty was beyond his understanding.
Su Chengmin was not surprised at all. Su Shihang abandoned his wife when he passed the imperial examination and severed their father-son relationship in the prince incident. What else could he not do?
Mrs. Lu's heart was beating like a drum. Even though Lu Yin'er had become a useless chess piece, she didn't want Lu Yin'er to die. But if Lu Yin'er didn't die, Su Shihang would make her die.
