Everyone present heard what Su's mother Mingzhao said, and it was obvious that she was directed at Old Madam Su.
Madam Su glanced at Mother Su but said nothing. She really didn't want to argue with the person in front of her in this situation.
But the second son of the Su family, Su Weidong, couldn't stand it. This was his own mother, and an elder. How could he be so presumptuous in public by a junior? He said directly: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
Ming Zhao raised his eyes to the empty space without even looking at Su Weidong, and said arrogantly: "I don't mean anything. I just can't let anyone wrongly accuse my daughter and let her suffer."
Su Weidong was so angry that his voice became louder: "No, so many people saw it in public. What if she doesn't apologize?"
"Qingqing said no, then there is no more." Mingzhao also started arguing without showing any weakness, glaring at her.
"How come you, a woman, don't have any brains?" Su Weidong was so angry at his sister-in-law that he spoke without thinking.
Su Weiguo, the father of the Su family, said to Su Weidong in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean? This is your sister-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family. How can you talk like that?"
"I..." Su Weidong only said one word when his wife beside him quickly pulled him and called softly, "Weidong.", indicating that he should stop talking.
Then he said, "Brother, Weidong just has a quick temper. Don't be angry. Don't bother with him. Besides, the most important thing now is Qingqing's matter. Let's solve the matter here first. Let's talk about the family affairs after we get back."
"Humph." Ming Zhao snorted coldly. "When is it your turn to speak here?" His tone was extremely unfriendly.
The other party did not respond, but smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.
Ming Zhao looked at the other person's timid appearance and rolled his eyes in disgust.
The second son of the Su family's wife is called Li Lan, a lecturer in the history department of A University. Her family background is not very good. She was educated in an ordinary working-class family and has a gentle personality. According to Su's mother Ming Zhao, she can't even say a word after being scolded ten times. She is just a soft persimmon that everyone can bully.
"That's enough. It's not enough to make people laugh at you." Old Madam Su said. She didn't say anything just now, letting them quarrel, because she wanted to see how Old Master Gu would react. But it was obvious that he was just watching the show.
Although the Gu and Su families have a deep relationship, and when Mr. Su was alive, they had a very good relationship with Mr. Gu, otherwise the two families would not have arranged a marriage. But Mr. Gu did not like Mrs. Su and the second branch of the Su family very much.
A very melodramatic story. The two old men were comrades-in-arms when they were young, and they had a very good relationship. But Mr. Su's original wife was a childhood sweetheart who grew up with Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu had a good impression of her, but she always treated him as a brother and only liked Mr. Su, who came from a poor family, and she insisted on marrying him.
Later, the two got married. Mr. Gu responded to the country's call to go into business and met his wife. Two years later, Mr. Su also went into business, and the two met again. The two families sat down to untie their knots and reconnected, and even arranged a marriage.
It's just a pity that Mr. Gu's wife died in a plane crash when his son was five years old. Since then, Mr. Gu never remarried. And Mr. Su's original wife. When Su Weiguo, the eldest son of the Su family, was ten years old, she fell seriously ill. The disease came quickly and violently. She slept in the hospital for several months and didn't survive the winter. But Mr. Su brought the current Mrs. Su back a month after the funeral. And this person was actually Mr. Su's previous lover. And for so many years, the two have been in contact. Mr. Gu was furious, but he also knew that this was someone else's family affair and he had no right to ask any more questions. It's just that from then until now, he has disliked this person.
Madam Su naturally knew that Mr. Gu didn't want to care about this matter. Even if Su Muqing refused to apologize to Jiang Qi, he could protect Su Muqing and prevent Jiang Qi from touching her. But he would not care about the life and death of the Su family.
So Madam Su walked up to Su Muqing, stood in front of her and asked, "Qingqing, grandma only has one question for you. Give grandma a definite answer. Are you going to apologize to Jiang Qi or not?"
"Grandma!" Su Muqing looked at Madam Su in disbelief, then laughed, a very sad laugh. "Obviously you are my family, you should be on my side, right? Why don't you believe me? Obviously I'm the one being bullied!" The more Su Muqing spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, and she yelled more and more, and finally turned around and hugged Luo Keke and started crying.
"Qingqing." Luo Keke raised her hand and stroked her back, soothing her: "I believe you."
Su's mother Ming Zhao also hurried to comfort her daughter: "Qingqing, be good. Mom also believes that you should stop crying, be good."
Madam Su looked at the scene in front of her with a headache and said helplessly: "Now it's not a question of whether to believe Qingqing or not. Jiang Qi is already injured, we..."
"Whoever wants to apologize should go by himself. Anyway, my Qingqing won't go." Mrs. Su was interrupted by Su's mother before she could finish her words.
Hearing this, Su Muqing raised her head and looked at her mother with tears in her eyes. Su's mother stroked Su Muqing's head and continued, "Let's not talk about whether my daughter Qingqing pushed her or not. I know what kind of personality my daughter has. Even if my daughter Qingqing really pushed her, she deserved it. A little slut like her will be beaten sooner or later."
"Madam Su, you'd better be careful with your words." Gu Jingcheng's cold voice sounded. Gu Jingcheng originally didn't want to get involved in this matter. He just wanted to solve this farce quickly and leave here to see how Jiang Qi was. But he couldn't stand this person scolding Jiang Qi in front of him.
"Why, did I say something wrong?" Su's mother asked provocatively, then took out a black handkerchief from her hand and asked Gu Jingcheng, "Is this yours?"
Gu Jingcheng was startled and subconsciously searched his pockets, but found them empty.
"I saw it next to the stool just now. I just picked it up." Su's mother said.
"Give it back to me." Gu Jingcheng raised his hand to take it back without any expression on his face. It must have fallen out accidentally when he was holding Jiang Qi just now.
"Don't be anxious. Why don't you explain to us why Jiang Qi's earrings are here with you? Didn't you say that you and she are fine?" Su's mother opened the cloth to reveal what was wrapped inside. It was a pair of very delicate lotus-shaped earrings. Everyone present recognized them. They were the ones Jiang Qi had worn just now.
"I'll say it again, give it back to me." Gu Jingcheng's voice was cold, and his eyes were cold. Su Muqing looked at Gu Jingcheng and felt a pang in his heart, knowing that he was on the verge of a rage.
So he hurriedly called out, "Mom!"
Su's mother completely ignored her and simply turned over her hand holding the thing, letting it fall to the ground.
Panic flashed in Gu Jingcheng's eyes, and he was about to squat down to pick up the things that fell. But just as he squatted down, he saw a foot in high heels stretched out, stepped on those things fiercely, and then chased them away.
Gu Jingcheng looked up at the arrogant man in front of him with an expression of disbelief.
Everyone present was stunned by this scene.
"Ming Zhao!" Father Su came to his senses first and hurriedly called his wife.
But Su's mother didn't care. Instead, she still looked arrogant and said with disdain: "What kind of girl from a good family would hang around a married man. She even provokes his wife and has no shame at all. If I had a daughter like this, I would be too ashamed to go out and see people."
Old Madam Su, the second wife of the Su family, and Su's father were all stunned watching this scene. Is this woman crazy? It's fine that she scolded Jiang Qi in front of Gu Jingcheng. Old Master Gu is still alive, but she even dared to scold Jiang Qi's mother Shi Jinhua. At this time, Jinhua's identity is not mentioned first, but she is Old Master Gu's goddaughter. Old Master Gu treats her as his own daughter, and he has announced it in a high-profile manner. This woman was really spoiled by the Ming family, and for decades, she really has no brains. Old Madam Su felt that her headache seemed to flare up again.
Old Master Gu stood by with a very calm expression on his face. He didn't want to care. To be honest, he didn't like anyone in the Su family except Su Muqing, including Su Muqing's parents. Because Su Muqing looked like her grandmother in every way, and she was not raised in the Su family since she was a child. Although she returned to the Su family at the age of twelve, she was not educated much by her family. She was very simple, kind, and had a good nature. That's why he insisted on this engagement with the Su family.
Although he loved Su Muqing very much, Gu Jingcheng was his grandson. No one could humiliate his grandson like this. So Gu Jingcheng could do whatever he wanted now. He didn't care.
Gu Jingcheng was so angry that he laughed and licked his back teeth. Then he stood up and clapped his hands. He put on his usual polite smile and said in a normal tone, "Mrs. Su, I'm sorry, you are still wrong about this matter."
Ming Zhao looked at him in confusion, not understanding what he was going to do.
Gu Jingcheng continued indifferently: "It's not that she revolves around me, it's me who revolves around her. You are right about one thing, there is something going on between her and me. I have liked her since I was a child, and I still love her deeply now. To be honest, in my eyes, your daughter is not even as good as a hair of Jiang Qi. You should persuade her to divorce me quickly."
"You!" Mother Su stared at him. She was so angry that she could only utter one word.
"Also, the pair of pendants do belong to Jiang Qi. You'd better think about how to return them. Otherwise, from what I know about her, she will really sue you."
"Hmph." Su's mother snorted disdainfully. It was just a pair of earrings.
"Just a reminder. Her pair of earrings are made with filigree craftsmanship from the Qing Dynasty. Each strand of silver thread is no more than one strand. As far as I know, no one can make it now. The only hair crown with similar craftsmanship is in the National Museum. And the silver thread is thicker than this one. She definitely doesn't want the money. If you can't return the items to her, I'll sue you for ten years, no problem." Gu Jingcheng's tone was indifferent, as if he was discussing whether the weather today would be cloudy or sunny.
Su's mother's face looked a little bad.
"There's more." Gu Jingcheng said. Without warning, he reached out and grabbed Su Muqing's arm and pulled her out from Rococo. Su Muqing felt like she was sitting in an ice cellar because of what Gu Jingcheng said just now. She was stunned and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. So she was caught off guard and was pulled out by Gu Jingcheng. Gu Jingcheng pulled her close to him.
Su Muqing looked at the face of the man in front of her, because she was very close, her facial features were very clear. She could clearly see the fierceness hidden in his eyes and the smile on the corner of his lips.
The next moment, a force pushed her out. It was so sudden that she could only fall straight down.
