Shengjing Noble
Chapter 83 Loss of Face
"What nonsense! Your sister was born better than you, how could she bring shame to our Su family!"
Su Yongcheng was very disdainful. After all, he had always valued Su Lanxin, so he had always carefully educated her. Not to mention her appearance, her skills in music, chess, calligraphy and painting were all top-notch.
It’s a pity that that was the Su Lanxin of the past. The fake one in front of her who came from another time was a good-for-nothing but self-important idiot.
Su Lanyin said aggrievedly: "Dad, didn't you hear what happened at the poetry party? My sister competed with the prostitutes in poetry in public. If it gets out, not only will the Su family lose face, but even your career will be affected!"
What innocent girl would perform on the same stage with a prostitute?
Not to mention a daughter from an official family, even the daughter of an ordinary citizen would not do such a shameful thing.
Su Yongcheng still refused to believe what he said and said angrily: "I think you are getting more and more arrogant. You even dare to throw dirty water on your sister. I will punish you severely today!"
As he said this, he took out a rattan stick from the cabinet beside him and wanted to hit Su Lanyin with it.
The thin and long vine was about to fall, but it was caught by a big hand, and the next second, it was taken away.
Su Yongcheng was stunned and was about to get angry when he met A'mo's cold eyes.
Lu Wanjun followed and stood beside Su Lanyin and Su Shengyun. She first looked her son and daughter up and down to make sure they were not injured before turning around to question Su Yongcheng.
"What do you want to do? What did Yinyin do wrong that you would beat and scold her? I am here today, don't even think about hurting my children!"
She stood in front of her two children like an old hen protecting her calves, her eyes full of uncontrollable anger.
After suffering humiliation in the Su family for so many years, she couldn't stand it for another day.
In the past, she still had some affection for Su Yongcheng and was willing to show weakness and compromise to him, but now she has already seen through the ugly face of this man and vowed never to be soft-hearted again.
Su Yongcheng felt that his dignity as the head of the family was challenged when the cane was taken away from him. His face turned pale and he roared angrily: "You are rebelling. You don't even take me, the head of the family, seriously. Do you want to be kicked out of the Su family?"
Lu Wanjun immediately rushed forward, glared at him and said, "You don't have to chase us away. If we can't give Yinyin and Yun'er justice today, I will take them away from the Su family immediately and sever ties with you!"
Hearing her say this, Su Yongcheng was immediately embarrassed. He stared with his eyes wide open, his face twisted and ferocious, as if he was going to eat someone in the next second.
Over the years, Lu Wanjun has been devoted to him and has been completely unreserved towards the Su family, only hoping that they can be better to their children.
But what did she get in the end for her efforts?
There was only a group of ungrateful people greedily sucking her blood all day long, without any gratitude at all, and even hated her for not giving enough.
Lu Wanjun is not stupid. In fact, she has long seen through the true nature of this family, but she has always been unwilling to admit that her choice back then was wrong.
So, she has been deceiving herself and brainwashing herself repeatedly for so many years, believing that one day she will get the gratitude and respect of the Su family.
But now, Su Lanyin made her completely sober, and she faced the reality in time and admitted that her choice back then was wrong.
She wanted to stop the loss in time and would rather give up all the hard work she had put in over the years to protect her children.
Thinking of this, she glared back without fear.
Su Yongcheng didn't expect her to be so tough. No matter how violent she was in the past, she would restrain herself in front of him.
But now Lu Wanjun seems to be escaping from his control.
This made him feel a little nervous, but he was too proud to face the reality.
For so many years, Lu Wanjun followed him like a dog, wagging her tail and begging for mercy, just hoping that he would look at her more.
So, how could he bow down to his dog?
Su Yongcheng stiffened his neck and asked, "What do you mean? You have to make a big fuss, right? This incident is clearly the fault of this rebellious girl. Not only did you not educate her, but you also helped her to disobey me. You are indulging her and harming her!"
Without any hesitation, Lu Wanjun sneered and said, "Humph, I know my daughter best. She wouldn't make a mistake for no reason. Moreover, the whole matter has not been investigated clearly. What makes you conclude that it is her fault?"
"You...Okay, I guess you won't cry until you get into the coffin. Lan Xin, tell me what's going on."
Everyone turned their eyes to Su Lanxin's face. She had a guilty look in her eyes. She swallowed and answered with some hesitation, "Dad... this matter... just treat it as my daughter's fault. Please don't pursue it anymore. I don't want to see you and Aunt Lu quarreling like this, nor do I want to see a good family quarreling."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and looked like she was about to cry.
What a sensible and obedient daughter.
If Su Lanyin had not seen her aggressive face at the poetry meeting, she would have been deceived by her.
Su Yongcheng snorted coldly and said condescendingly: "Listen, Ruyan is also my Su family's daughter, but she was taught to be well-behaved and sensible, and always put the overall situation first. Look at the evildoer you taught!"
He pointed at Su Lanyin with a look of extreme disgust.
Lu Wanjun said disdainfully: "She didn't mention the whole story, but she pretended to be so! Yinyin, tell me what happened?"
Su Lanyin took a step forward, then glanced at Su Lanxin and sighed aggrievedly.
"At the poetry gathering, Miss Xingyue was playing the piano when my sister suddenly rushed onto the stage to interrupt her and threatened to compete with her. Miss Xingyue was unwilling to compete, but my sister kept pestering her."
"There were so many people watching. If I had allowed my sister to compete with the prostitute, wouldn't it have brought shame to the entire Su family? Where would Daddy put his face then?"
"I had no choice but to rush out to stop her. I thought it would be better to compete with me than to get involved with a prostitute, but I didn't expect that my sister forgot how to play the piano, so..."
Su Yongcheng couldn't listen any more before she finished speaking.
"Impossible! You are talking nonsense. How could Lan Xin do such a stupid thing? Only a jerk like you can do such a shameful thing!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Su Lanxin's face turned visibly pale. As a modern person, she could never have imagined that the class system in feudal society was so serious.
Or perhaps she simply didn't take the rules of this era seriously.
She thought she was the destined heroine who had traveled through time and space, and was superior to these natives, so she was proud and conceited.
Once a person is too proud, it is easy to have illusions, which leads to his own destruction.
Fortunately, it was just a poetry gathering. If her behavior had been brought to the attention of a truly powerful aristocratic family, she would probably have been killed on the spot.
Thinking about it now, Su Lanxin also felt a little scared.
