Shengjing Noble

Thinking of this, he calmed down a little, but was still impatient.

"Don't threaten me with this kind of thing. Let me tell you, this is the Su family. It's not your turn as a concubine to come and go freely. Someone, take them back to Suiyuexuan. Without my permission, they are not allowed to step out of the courtyard!"

At the command, tall guards surrounded the place.

Fortunately, when Su Lanyin came, she called A'mo. He stepped forward with his tall and strong body and immediately suppressed the momentum of those guards.

"I won't allow anyone to harm Auntie and Sixth Miss!"

There was no fear in his eyes, and he did not have the humility and cowardice of an ordinary servant. Instead, he looked like a great general, and his coarse linen clothes could not hide his coldness.

Su Yongcheng was even more furious when he saw that Lu Wanjun was protected by an expert.

The noise here lasted too long and finally alarmed the guests in the yard. Some curious people gathered nearby to watch the fun.

"What's going on? Why is the quarrel so intense?"

"Isn't today the coming-of-age ceremony for the Su family's eldest daughter? Why are you arguing?"

"I heard that the concubine insisted on holding a birthday party for the concubine's daughter today, hoping to steal the limelight from the legitimate daughter."

"Not only does she want to steal the limelight, she also wants to steal the guests. I heard that there is not a single guest from the concubine's side."

"How dare a concubine's daughter compete with the mistress's legitimate daughter? How shameless!"

……

The public opinion almost pointed the finger at Lu Wanjun and Su Lanyin.

There was a glimmer of pride in Liu Ruyan and Su Lanxin's eyes.

Concubines and concubines' daughters are not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath with the mother and daughter!

The voices of accusation grew louder and louder, and suddenly the crowd made way for the Minister of Personnel and his wife.

"what happened?"

Li Shian asked in confusion when he saw the tense situation in front of him.

"Why are you arguing for no reason? What kind of injustice have you suffered?" Ji Yun looked worried.

Liu Ruyan thought she was concerned about her daughter, so she smiled and said to her daughter, "Master Li, Madam Li, how could we have alarmed you two? We really failed to entertain you well."

"It's not a big deal. Aunt Lu wanted to celebrate Lan Yin's birthday today. There were no guests over there, so she wanted to come to Lan Xin's place to ask a few guests to leave..."

She tried to cover it up magnanimously, but her words were full of accusations against Lu Wanjun and her daughter.

Su Lanxin lowered her head with red eyes, her tone full of grievance: "It's just a once-in-a-lifetime coming-of-age ceremony, Xin'er, it's okay, let the guests go to Sixth Sister, it's just a little bit of grievance, I'm used to it."

It sounded as if he was often bullied by Aunt Lu and Su Lanyin in private.

Anyone who sees her pitiful appearance would feel pity for her. If they meet someone with a strong sense of justice, he or she would probably support her on the spot.

Unfortunately, the mother and daughter made a wrong calculation.

I thought Li Shian and his wife would side with Su Lanxin, but unexpectedly they walked directly in front of Lu Wanjun and Su Lanyin.

"What coming-of-age party? I thought this was Yinyin's birthday party."

"Oh, I was wondering why I didn't see you and your daughter for a long time. It turns out we went to the wrong place."

Su Yongcheng and others were stunned and shocked.

"My Lord, what do you mean?"

Li Shian turned around and glared at him, saying unhappily, "Master Su, why didn't you explain it earlier? You brought us to this garden without knowing what was going on!"

Ji Yun also said angrily: "Yes, we are here to attend Yinyin's birthday party, not to watch any coming-of-age ceremony."

The calm and elegant mask on Liu Ruyan's face seemed to have cracks, and she asked with some emotion: "Aren't you two here for my Lan Xin? Then the invitation I sent to your house..."

Li Shian frowned, "Invitations that are not sent by acquaintances are usually withheld at the gatehouse and never delivered to me, so I don't know what the coming-of-age banquet is about."

Ji Yun said coldly, "We only received the invitation from Wanjun, and she replied that she wanted to come to attend Yinyin's birthday ceremony, otherwise we would not have turned down other social engagements to come here today."

Su Yongcheng's face was so dark that ink seemed to drip out. He glared at Liu Ruyan with resentment in his eyes, and then quickly returned to his normal expression.

He stepped forward and bowed, saying, "It is my wife who has not thought it through. I hope you and your wife will forgive me. But since you two are here, please take a seat..."

Before he could finish his words, Ji Yun interrupted him.

"Of course we have to sit in the upper seats. If Wanjun doesn't leave a good seat for us, I'll be angry!"

After she finished speaking, she glared at Lu Wanjun with a smile and a reproachful look.

"What are you saying? When have you ever dared not to give me a seat of honor? Yinyin, quickly pay your respects to your uncle and aunt."

As Lu Wanjun spoke, she gently pushed Su Lanyin.

"Yinyin pays respects to uncle and aunt."

"Good boy, get up!"

Ji Yun took out a brocade box from her sleeve and said with a smile, "Your mother didn't tell me about your birthday earlier, so I didn't have time to prepare. Please accept this small gift, and I will give you a more meaningful one later!"

Su Lanyin was flattered to take the brocade box and opened it with joy. Inside was a golden pearl flower, sparkling in the sun.

Both the workmanship and the material are top-notch.

"Thank you, uncle and aunt. Yinyin likes it very much!"

Like an innocent child, she immediately took out the pearl flower and put it on her head, looking at her mother showing off.

"Mom, does it look good?"

Lu Wanjun smiled and nodded: "It looks good, your aunt gave you good things!"

Ji Yun touched Su Lanyin's little face lovingly, her eyes full of doting: "Yinyin is beautiful, she looks good in anything."

In her previous life, Su Lanyin believed the words of the eldest lady and thought that the Shangshu and his wife were old-fashioned and serious and did not like a concubine's daughter of humble origins.

So I didn't dare to get close to them, for fear of offending them.

But she later found out that the Shangshu and his wife were both passionate people who made no distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children, and did not care about one's family background.

They like children who are open and honest, so Su Lanyin's timid look disgusts them.

It just so happened that Su Lanxin was gentle, decent, dignified and generous, and she was also raised by Lu Wanjun, so she was really loved by the Shangshu and his wife.

Later, Su Lanxin’s transformation into a phoenix was possible with the help of this couple.

Su Lanyin touched the pearl flower on her head, and the smile in her eyes deepened.

In this life, she wants to see how Liu Ruyan and her daughter, who cannot step on them to get to the top, can thrive!

A few people walked towards Suiyuexuan chatting and laughing, leaving Su Yongcheng and others standing there with awkward expressions.

Su Lanxin was young after all, and her clenched fists revealed her extreme anger at the moment, and tears fell uncontrollably.

Liu Ruyan tried to remain calm, but the smile on her face was extremely stiff.

She said dryly, "Lan Xin, your sixth sister is young, you should give her some leniency. Let your uncle Li and the others go and celebrate your sister's birthday first, and they will be back soon."

This is an attempt to save face, but unfortunately, the other guests know the situation clearly.
