It was not until the afternoon that Su Xiner returned happily from the banquet.

Ever since Aunt Song was promoted to the main wife, she became the legitimate daughter of the Su family and finally received attention from various families.

What made her happiest was that even the third prince noticed her.

Today she received an invitation from the Queen to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet held in the palace.

Although many daughters of noble families were invited to the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

After all, everyone knows that the purpose of holding the Hundred Flowers Banquet is to allow the princes to find girls of appropriate age and choose them as their wives.

But at the Hundred Flowers Banquet today, the Queen's words showed that she was interested in her.

The Queen is the biological mother of the Third Prince... maybe in a few days, she will receive the imperial decree granting her marriage...

Su Xiner ran towards Aunt Song's yard happily, wanting to tell her the good news.

But as soon as I entered the yard, I heard the sound of Aunt Song and Su's father arguing in the house.

"Sumuleng! Are you really going to demote me to a concubine? Wouldn't that make others treat me as a joke?"

"Wanjun, please understand me! Xuan'er is back, and I have no other choice."

"You know very well that she is not dead at all. Those are just stories she made up!"

"But you also saw it, that old lady Zhao..."

Su Xiner listened for a while and then ran to the yard, digesting what she had heard.

Su Xuaner is back?

Because Su Xuan'er is coming back, my father is going to demote my mother to a concubine?

How can you do this?

Su Xiner had just returned to the yard and was even more angry when she saw the drastically changed yard.

She casually called a maid and asked, "Why has my yard become like this? What happened?"

The maid lowered her head and answered carefully: "Miss Xin'er, Miss Xuan'er is back. The master has ordered her to live in the original courtyard..."

Su Xiner was furious.

Su Xuaner, Su Xuaner is still Su Xuaner!

damn it!

As soon as I get home, I disturb the peace of the family!

She has the nerve to come back!

Su Xiner rushed in aggressively, shouting, "Su Xiner, come out! Why did you come back? Why didn't you die outside? You should have let those bandits torture you to death!"

Su Xiner was scolding vigorously when Su Xuaner opened the door leisurely, holding an apple in her hand. She bit it and looked at Su Xiner with a smile.

"Is this an after-dinner performance? It's okay, but the swearing isn't powerful enough."

Su Xiner's face turned red with anger and she stared at Su Xuaner viciously.

"Why are you coming back?"

Su Xuaner waved her hand.

"I didn't want to come back either. It was my father who begged me to come back."

"I am such a filial son, how can I bear to disappoint my father!"

"Impossible! It was clearly your father who told everyone that you were dead!"

"If you don't believe me, go ask him. Why are you looking for me?"

Su Xiner choked. Of course she didn't dare to go to Su's father to question him.

Although Father Su appears gentle and polite to outsiders, he has always been strong in the Su family.

If Aunt Song hadn't captured his heart and given birth to a son for him, he might not have even looked at Su Xinxin'er...

In his eyes, these daughters are nothing more than tools for him to gain power!

Just like Su Xuan'er back then, Su Xuan'er was stunningly beautiful and had the reputation of being a talented woman.

But after Su Xuan'er was abducted by bandits, Su's father saw that she was no longer useful and gave up on her without hesitation!

Seeing that Su Xiner remained silent, Su Xuaner chuckled.

"I am always enthusiastic and have already called your father to come over for you."

"If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell your father directly. He will definitely be able to help you solve it."

"You!" Su Xiner's face changed and she was about to leave.

But then Su's father came towards him aggressively.

"Father...Father..." Su Xiner spoke cautiously.

Father Su slapped her directly and said coldly: "Your elder sister just came back and you were yelling in her yard! Where are your manners? Have you been eaten by a dog?"

Su Xiner covered her face and looked at her father in disbelief.

Although Su's father didn't pay much attention to his daughters on weekdays, he never beat them.

After all, the most important thing for a girl is her face. If this gets out, he will lose face.

But now Father Su didn't ask anything and just slapped himself!

"Father, you actually hit me! You actually hit me for Su Xuan'er who was defiled by bandits!"

Father Su slapped Su Xiner again.

Maybe he felt a little distressed before, after all, the daughter was born to him by the woman he loved most.

But Su Xuaner is his darling now, and he is afraid that Su Xiner’s words will cause his dissatisfaction.

After he beat Su Xiner, he looked at Su Xuaner with a worried look on his face.

The latter indeed looked very sad.

There were tears in Su Xuaner's eyes.

"Father, is this what you think?"

"Forget it... If father thinks that I have tarnished the reputation of the Su family, I will go back to the Song family and not embarrass father."

Seeing that Su Xuan'er was about to leave, Su's father hurriedly stopped her.

"Xuan'er, don't listen to her nonsense! They lied to me and told me you were dead, so I didn't go looking for you."

Su Xuaner looked doubtful: "Really?"

Su Xiner no longer had time to be afraid at this moment, all her dissatisfaction and grievances came flooding back.

She pulled Su's father's sleeve, her voice was particularly shrill: "Father! She is no longer useful, why are you still on her side?"

"You also want to demote my mother to a concubine! Why? My mother has been with you for so many years, and she finally made it through, and you treat her like this?"

"Is it because of the pressure from the Zhao family? But our Su family is obviously not afraid of the Zhao family!"

Father Su had a gloomy face and looked at Su Xiner coldly.

"Someone come, the second young lady has gone mad, take her back to her own yard and keep an eye on her. She is not allowed to go out without a special reason!"

"Father..." Su Xiner wanted to say something else, but the nanny who came up covered her mouth and dragged her away.

Father Su looked at Su Xuan'er ingratiatingly: "Xuan'er, don't listen to her nonsense. Things are not at all like what she said."

"Daddy has always loved you. If I hadn't been deceived by them, I would have definitely saved you at the first opportunity and would never have let you suffer so much!"

Su Xuaner wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Father, Sister Xin'er is right. It's my fault. I'd better leave..."

"No! Daddy won't let you go. Don't worry, Daddy will definitely teach her a lesson and give you justice!"

"You can't leave. What will Daddy do if you leave?"

"But Aunt Song will definitely not agree. I'd better leave..."

Father Su was anxious and said quickly: "It's useless if she doesn't agree. I have the final say in the Su Mansion!"

"If she doesn't agree, I'll divorce her with a piece of paper!"

"Don't worry, Daddy will never let you suffer any injustice!"

"Forget about the divorce letter. If outsiders hear about this, I don't know what they will say about me..."

"Just demote her to a concubine. I can't bear to leave my father. Since my father can do this, I'd better stay..."

Father Su was delighted, then he covered his mouth and started coughing.

He coughed so hard that it shook the earth. It took him a long time to recover, and he looked haggard.
