When Su Yunling woke up, she had already returned to the Su Mansion. Linglan stood by her bed and carefully applied ointment to her.

"When did I come back?"

"Miss, you are finally awake. Didn't you say you were pretending to be faint? How come you really fainted?" Linglan's face was full of lingering fear.

Su Yunling rubbed her eyes and said, "This is not called dizziness. I, your lady, won by doing nothing."

Lily of the Valley: “…”

"Where is my grandmother? And my uncles?" Su Yunling sat up and asked.

Just now, when she was half asleep and half awake, she heard the voices of her two uncles.

"The old lady asked me to watch over you. She is going to the front hall to teach the master and Aunt Liu a lesson..."

Su Yunling immediately got up, dressed and put on makeup, and went to watch the fun.

Just as she reached the hanging flower gate in the front yard, she heard her grandfather cursing.

"Minister Su, you have a bad personal ethics and fail to manage your family properly, confusing the legitimate and illegitimate bloodlines. Tomorrow I will report this to the emperor."

"Father-in-law, I know nothing about this matter! Yunling has suffered so much, and as a father, I feel so sorry for her."

"You didn't know? How were the two children swapped? If you don't give me an explanation today, our Xu family will never forgive you!" Xu Zhang was so angry that she slammed the table.

"I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give you two elders an explanation as soon as possible." Su Zhaohong, knowing that he was in the wrong, bowed his head in submission.

"Don't think about using tricks to fool people anymore. I know that such a dirty thing was done by your lowly concubine, but I don't know if she is the principal or accomplice." Xu Zhang's words clearly showed that she suspected Su Zhaohong was also involved.

Even though Su Zhaohong repeatedly stated that he knew nothing about this, it was too obvious that he and Liu had been harshly treating Su Yunling, making it difficult to clear themselves of suspicion.

As for Liu, whether she admits it or not, she can't escape this time.

Not to mention that the Xu family couldn't tolerate her, even if Su Zhaohong wanted to protect himself, he couldn't keep her.

Unless he is willing to give up everything he currently has for this woman.

Liu was kneeling by the side, her eyes already swollen from crying, while Su Yueying and the three brothers of the Su family were standing by in a daze, not knowing what to do.

The more Xu Zhang thought about it, the angrier she got. She went up and slapped Liu hard in the face again. "You vicious whore, for the sake of your daughter's enjoyment of wealth and luxury, you actually did such a dirty thing as replacing the prince with a cat. If you don't confess the details today, I will hand you over to the authorities for investigation!"

"Mother-in-law, please calm down. This is a family matter. You must not report it to the police!" Su Zhaohong hurriedly stepped forward and said nice things.

"Hmph! It's not impossible not to report to the authorities, but I can only relieve my hatred by beating this vicious woman to death. Otherwise, I will put on my imperial robes tomorrow and personally go to beat the drum outside the court."

Xu Zhang's attitude was unquestionable.

An unprecedented panic rose in Liu's eyes. Even if she could win Su Zhaohong's favor again, she was still a concubine after all. She was an inferior person who could be sold and killed at will.

She knelt hurriedly to Su Zhaohong's feet and begged, "Please don't, sir... I was bewitched for a moment, I really know I was wrong..."

Su Zhaohong was overwhelmed when he heard the drum. Even though he felt sorry for the incident, he knew that it would not be easy to resolve.

"Mrs. Liu, why are you so confused?"

When Liu heard what Su Zhaohong said, she knew that he was going to abandon her, but she didn't want to die. Her good days were only a few days long, and she was about to outlast Old Madam Su who took over the family.

How could she die like this?

She looked around in panic, and finally fixed her eyes on Su Yueying.

"Daughter, please save me! I did all this for you. You are a saint, you can definitely save me, right?"

"How could you be my mother? You are not my mother—" Su Yueying hid behind her eldest brother, feeling only disgust towards Liu.

"What happened? Why is I so sad?" Su Yunling walked into the hall at this time.

"Good boy, you are finally awake. Come and let your grandma see you." Xu Zhang went over and held Su Yunling's hand tightly, her voice trembling and her eyes gentle.

"Grandmother?" Su Yunling looked bewildered.

We must do our best to perform the necessary roles.

Xu Zhang flicked her forehead lovingly, "You kid, are you still pretending to be stupid? Haven't you been leading us to doubt your background before?"

Su Yunling was slightly startled, then smiled brightly, "Grandma, I'm sorry! I'm just making a bold guess and have no evidence, so I can only ask you and Grandpa to confirm it."

"Good girl, you've suffered a lot these years." Xu Handang strode over and looked at her with eyes full of heartache.

Su Yunling's eyes were sore. "I have no regrets in my life because I can recognize my grandparents."

Xu Zhang took her hand and gently stroked it in her palm. "Those hard days are over. From now on, no one can let us Lingling suffer any injustice."

When the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren recognized each other, Liu hurriedly crawled over.

"Daughter, please give me a chance to live since I have raised you for ten years!" She seemed to have forgotten all the harm she had caused to Su Yunling earlier, and shamelessly asked Su Yunling to save her.

"Raising me for ten years?" Su Yunling was shocked by her shamelessness. "It would be fine if you didn't mention the ten years, but since you did, I think you should change the sentence of being beaten to death to thirty days of flogging?"

"Su Yunling, Liu has taken care of you for ten years! You made her suffer 30 days of flogging. You might as well just beat her to death. How could you be so cruel?" Su Jingyi was the first to stand up and express his dissatisfaction.

Xu Zhang glared at him coldly. "Since you think that as long as you are not tortured to death, you are taken care of, then let you live the way Liu took care of Lingling for ten years, and then you can come out and be a good person! You are such an idiot who can't tell the difference between relatives and strangers, your mother would rather have given birth to a pig than you."

"I..." Su Jingyi was scolded so much that he didn't dare to talk back.

The two brothers who were ready to join in also fell silent.

"Don't be angry, grandma. Big brother just doesn't feel the pain unless the whip hits him. When I beat Liu to death later, I'll beat him with a few dozen sticks as well."

"You..." Su Jingyi's face turned red with anger.

"Brother, next time before you are generous to others, please think from their perspective. After all, you are the director of the Imperial College. If you continue to be so foolish, you will probably ruin your future." Su Yunling reminded coldly.

"Although you didn't grow up in the Su Mansion, weren't you fine? After all, Liu is Yingying's biological mother. Since she has already known her mistakes, why should you be so unreasonable?" Su Hanyu looked serious.

"Pa...pa..." Xu Zhang slapped Su Hanyu twice in the face, leaving him stunned.

"Grandma, you hit me for her?" Obviously, this was the first time he was slapped by Xu Zhang.

"I only regret that I beat you too late. None of you are clear-headed. If you still can't figure it out, don't call me grandma. My Xu family doesn't have grandchildren as stupid as you."

Seeing how indifferent they all looked at her, Su Yunling completely let go of her last obsession with these brothers.

"Do you all think that Liu didn't let me die, so it's excusable? Have you ever thought about it? I was fine with my biological mother, but she wanted to steal me away for her own selfish desires. She did this not only to pave the way for her daughter, but also to take revenge on our mother. I was just a tool for her to vent her dissatisfaction. In the end, I still have to thank her? You guys don't believe me if you say you don't have a serious illness!"

The three brothers looked at each other, completely speechless.

"Grandma, Liu was outside the house at the time. If no one cooperated, how could she switch me with Su Yueying?" Su Yunling said as she looked at Su Zhaohong who was trying hard to hide his guilt.
