Shengjing Noble

From inside the door came a voice that was extremely familiar to the brother and sister.

"Madam Fang, although our family is not considered a noble family, we are also a legitimate official family. Your daughter's marriage to Shenghao is also a blessing from her past life."

The conversation in the room was still going on, but Su Shengming outside the door could hardly hear anything.

His face was pale at first, then darker and darker, and a coldness appeared in his eyes.

"Third brother, don't be anxious."

Su Lanyin was afraid that he would lose control and rush in, so she held his arm tightly.

"You haven't finished listening yet."

Su Shengming took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly became clear, and he stared at the door in front of him expressionlessly, his whole body emitting a strong and chilling aura.

Inside the room, the two were unable to reach an agreement on the betrothal gift until Su Shenghao spoke up.

"Father, I fell in love with Qingqing at first sight. I would be willing to pay more for the betrothal gift. Moreover, she gave up that idiot Su Shengming for me. I absolutely cannot treat her unfairly."

Su Yongcheng said in a cold tone: "Shut up!"

A gleam of light flashed in Fang Tao's eyes, and she winked at her daughter.

Fang Qingqing understood what he meant, and immediately lowered her head and used her fingers to wipe away the tears that didn't exist at all. Her tearful look made people feel pity for her.

"Brother Shenghao, I also want to marry you, but it was not easy for my mother to raise me alone. She asked for such a large betrothal gift because she was thinking about me and was afraid that I would be wronged in the future."

Fang Tao straightened up and said magnanimously, "That's right. I won't take any of these betrothal gifts. They will all be taken away by my daughter on the wedding day. No matter how much betrothal gifts you give, we will double the dowry."

"To tell you the truth, the thing that my Fang family lacks the least is money. You can go and ask around. My daughter has never suffered from luxury since she was a child, and I can't bear to let her suffer."

"Besides, I don't have a husband, I only have this precious daughter. When I'm gone, will all these things of the Fang family still belong to her? What do you think of your family of officials? Our Qingqing is not the daughter of a poor family that no one wants!"

Fang Qingqing was touched and crawled into her arms: "Mothers love their daughters the most in this world."

The mother and daughter sang in unison, which stunned the Su family's father and son.

Moreover, after hearing her say this, a light flashed in Su Yongcheng's dark eyes, and he couldn't help but look at the clothes of the mother and daughter opposite him.

Fang Tao and Fang Qingqing really put a lot of effort into their attire. Not only were their headdresses exquisite and elegant, but their clothes were also made of the finest silk, and their cuffs were embroidered with gold and silver threads.

If it were really an ordinary family, they really couldn't afford it. The reason why Su Yongcheng knew the value of it was because Lu Wanjun only wore clothes made of this material before.

At that time, he thought it was good and asked Lu Wanjun to do several sets for Liu Ruyan, the old lady, and even Li Lanxiang.

But he didn't know that the mother and daughter of the Fang family were wearing the most expensive clothes in their wardrobe today.

After all, if you go out to cheat without any real stuff, you will be looked down upon.

Fang Tao had long seen through men's fickleness and utilitarianism. To be honest, most men since ancient times were the most vain, otherwise they would not have stained their hands with blood in the struggle for power and profit.

Su Yongcheng was shaken and hesitated to express his attitude.

Outside the door, Su Lanyin said with a smile: "We have to lend them a helping hand."

Su Shengming looked confused: "What did you say...ah!"

Before he could finish his words, he was kicked inside. The door was pushed open and the people inside looked over, all of them stunned for a moment.

Su Shengming almost fell flat on his face, but when he saw Fang Qingqing looking at him, he immediately straightened up stubbornly and stood there with an angry look on his face.

"Su Shengming? Why are you here?" Fang Tao was the first to react, standing up and questioning him.

Su Shengming sneered and said sarcastically, "If I had come any later, I would have seen your daughter's bastard with another man!"

Fang Qingqing had a bad look on her face, but because the father and son of the Su family were still there, her image as a lady could not be ruined.

So she lowered her head and started crying, sobbing, "Shengming... wuwuwu... I know you like me very much, but I... I really treat you... wuwuwu..."

She was very smart and knew how to use ambiguous answers to confuse Su Shengming so that he would subconsciously make up the answer in his own mind.

Just the sentence "I know you like me very much, but I really treat you like..."

It’s enough to make a man who is obsessed with you lose his mind in an instant!

Fortunately, after hearing everything outside the door, Su Shengming finally woke up completely.

He looked at her expressionlessly: "My family just went bankrupt and you turned around and fell in love with someone else at first sight, Fang Qingqing, what do you think I am? A fool?"

Su Shengming became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he couldn't help but yell at them.

Fang Qingqing was just a little girl after all, thin-skinned and not brave enough, so she immediately shut her mouth and dared not say anything.

Fang Tao, however, has been through a lot. If she was afraid of a young boy, she wouldn't have ended up like this.

She slammed the table, held her daughter in her arms, and shouted angrily: "Who do you think you are to suddenly barge in and yell at my daughter? Are you worthy? If there is no mirror at home, there must be urine, right? Don't you see what kind of person you are now? You are a poor person, why are you pretending? Get out of here!"

Su Shengming was so angry that his whole body was shaking. Just as he was about to curse back, he heard Su Yongcheng speak.

"I haven't seen you for a while, and you really have lost your manners! Your mother is a piece of trash. Without our Su family, we can't keep our wealth. Now you deserve it, right? Humph!"

Su Shenghao also said sarcastically, "Su Shengming, Qingqing will be my fiancée soon. If I were you, I would not be ashamed to come and pester you again, so you better get out of here!"

Su Lanyin stood at the door and watched coldly, with no intention of going up to help for the time being.

If Su Shengming suffers some injustice, he will probably learn his lesson and at least not get involved with any kind of woman in the future.

"You think that my Lu family is in decline so you steal my people and ridicule me like this. This is simply too much!" He clenched his fists, as if he was trying to maintain the last bit of decency and dignity.

But Su Lanyin knew that Su Shengming in the past would not be so calm and composed.

He should be thinking about his mother Lu Wanjun, his elder brother, his second brother and his younger sister.

After all, his family was in trouble and he had suffered great humiliation, but he couldn't let his family be implicated.

So, he endured it and swallowed his anger.

Su Lanyin looked at her third brother who was growing up to be more responsible, and a hint of relief appeared in her eyes.

Inside the house, Fang Tao continued to taunt.

"You are the only ones who want to eat our Fang family's extinct family. How ridiculous! Go back and tell your disgusting mother that she will be destined to be poor and destitute for the rest of her life!"

Su Shengming clenched his fists even tighter than before and said through gritted teeth, "If you dare to bring up my mother again, I will never let you off easily!"
