After the rebirth of the wronged soft girl, the devil's crematorium

Su Wan stared at Zheng Yanchen in silence. The rumor on the side explained, "There was a fire just now, and the young lady almost burned to death in there."

"How did a fire break out out of nowhere? Why are you so careless?" Zheng Yanchen asked anxiously.

"Who is Mr. Zheng questioning?"

Zheng Yanchen turned around at the sound and saw a tall figure standing there. Su Jue's face was slightly stained with dust, but it couldn't hide his handsome appearance. However, his handsome face was cold as ice.

Zheng Yanchen's expression changed slightly, "Why is Second Brother here?"

Su Jue came over and said, "What's the matter? You people in the Duke's Mansion don't care about my sister's life or death, so can't my Su family do anything about it?"

"What are you talking about, second brother? This matter was indeed caused by the negligence of our subordinates. I will definitely punish them severely later."

"Really? Are you willing to do that? I'll just be thankful if you don't blame my sister. After all, even a dog in your Duke's Mansion is so noble."

Su Jue's words were very rude, which made Zheng Yanchen feel unhappy. But he still tried to control his emotions and forced himself to smile, "Second brother, what you said is all my fault."

Su Jue ignored him and turned around and said, "Sister, let's go home. Don't be afraid, I'll help you."

"Second brother!" Before Su Wan could answer, Zheng Yanchen spoke first, "I know you're angry, but Su Wan's family is now in the Duke's Mansion. I will take good care of her when I return."

"You want to stop me?"

"Second brother, it's not that I'm ignorant, but something like this happened in front of so many people. If Su Wan returns to the Su family and word gets out, how will people outside view the Duke's Mansion? You should also be a sensible person, so please don't make things difficult for your brother-in-law."

Su Jue laughed, "Does your Duke's Mansion still lack this little bit of face?"

Zheng Yanchen lowered his head, his expression instantly darkening.

"Brother, I'm fine." Su Wan stepped forward. "There are indeed many things that need to be explained. Don't worry, I will send someone to pass on the news to the Su family."

Seeing that Su Wan had her own plans, Su Jue had no choice but to agree, "Okay, don't be afraid, sister. I'll follow you."

After getting on the carriage, Zheng Yanchen sat in the main seat with a stern expression on his face, and Su Wan ignored him.

"What do you mean, second brother? Are you telling outsiders that my Zheng family bullied you?"

Su Wan frowned and looked at Zheng Yanchen and said, "My husband, I didn't start the fire. If your relatives were caught in the fire for no reason, and the servants didn't care, how would you feel? Are you scolding your sister and calling her stupid? She didn't even know that there would be a fire soon?"

"You!" Zheng Yanchen's face froze.

"My husband doesn't pity me, but my brother does. Doesn't my husband think this is wrong?"

"That's not what I meant!"

The Duke's Mansion was filled with a deadpan atmosphere due to recent events. The entire family sat solemnly in the side hall. Even Madam Zheng, who had lived a life of vegetarianism and Buddhist meditation, had left the courtyard.

When Wen heard the servants report that Paradise was on fire, she suddenly realized what was happening. When she heard that no one was injured, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, the Second Young Master's wife's brother, Su Erlang, arrived just in time." The servant continued, "I heard that Su Erlang felt that the servants there were not doing their job well and became furious in public. Even Erlang Jun didn't respond well."

Wen's expression changed again when she heard this. "How dare you! Who dares to yell at my son? And it's not that early in the morning, but Su Wan has gone and everything is ruined. I want to know what's going on!"

Wen thought about the miscellaneous things that happened in recent days and became even angrier towards Su Wan. This time, she had to let Erlang fix this ugly thing!

"Madam, Erlang and Shao Madam are back."

Wen's face was as pale as ice, "It's good that you're back."

Soon, Zheng Yanchen and Su Wan were ushered into a side hall. As soon as they entered, they heard a clatter. Looking up, they saw everyone present looking awkwardly at the old lady pounding the table.

"You ignorant girl, kneel down!"

Su Wan was terrified. "I don't know what crime my daughter-in-law has committed to displease Grandmother. Please give me some advice."

"Okay, let me ask you, have you heard the rumors in the city these days?"

"My daughter-in-law heard something when she was out."

Madam Zheng looked sarcastic, "Oh~ What do you think?"

Su Wan lowered her head and said, "Why bother listening to those nonsense? If we behave properly, a few words won't drown out our Duke's Mansion."

"presumptuous!"

Su Wan was stunned.

"Huh! How could it get out like that?"

Su Wan was puzzled. "I need to ask my sister-in-law about this. Everyone present should know the cause of the incident."

"But as the person in charge of the harem, are you just not going to care? If that's the case, what's the point of having this mistress?"

"Please understand, Grandmother. My granddaughter-in-law only found out about this when she was out. She wanted to come back and discuss how to resolve this."

The old lady's cloudy eyes shone coldly. "What do you think?"

"I think an outsider is taking advantage of the situation and wants to harm the Zheng family. We need to find the source and let the outsider know that it is a frame-up."

"We were indeed tricked," Wen Shi took over the conversation. "But I don't know if the person who tricked the Duke's Mansion was an outsider or an insider."

Su Wan opened her eyes wide, "My daughter-in-law is stupid, please enlighten me, mother-in-law!"

"You are not only stupid, but also a traitor!"

Su Wan stared at Wen Shi with wide eyes, "Could it be that mother-in-law is doubting me?"

Qin: "Sister-in-law, stop pretending! You're holding a grudge against me for teaching you a lesson, and you're dragging the entire Duke's Mansion into making amends. In the final analysis, I really underestimated you back then."

Su Wan's face was filled with anxiety. "I'm not wrong! You want me to bear this crime without any evidence? Please show me the evidence!"

"You know clearly whether you did it or not! From today on, you are confined to Tingyuxuan and you must hand over your cards. You behave badly. You don't even know how to be a woman, let alone the wife of the Zheng family. Tomorrow I will send a letter to the Su family to come and see!"

Su Wan's eyes widened in shock. Confining her and asking her family to come and give an explanation was clearly an attempt to tell the world that Su Wan was responsible, and then to divorce her and shift the blame onto the Su family. The Zheng family loved this kind of calculation.

"Husband, what do you think?" Su Wan looked at Zheng Yanchen.

Zheng Yanchen hesitated. Knowing Su Wan well, he knew she wouldn't do such a vicious thing. But thinking about his family's analysis of her, he felt she was wary of the Zheng family. He suspected Su Wan might know something. So, even if Su Wan hadn't done it, he wouldn't let her show up again for the next few days.

"You've been making mistakes as the head of the family these past few days. You really haven't done a good enough job. Take a few days off first."

"I didn't do the mistress's job well, so I should take the responsibility. But since it concerns my reputation, I will definitely not accept it!" Su Wan's eyes were firm.

"What do you want to do?"

"My daughter-in-law wants evidence, otherwise she will never admit the crime even if she dies!"

"How dare you! Not only is she a traitor, but she even dares to contradict her elders. Imprison her in the ancestral hall and give her thirty lashes with the cane! Tomorrow, let the elders of the Su family and everyone in the capital see that this is the good daughter they raised!"

Seeing the unreasonable look of the old lady, Su Wan smiled bitterly and said, "If God has eyes, he will not let me die unjustly like this!" As she said that, Su Wan turned around and slammed into the pillar behind her.

Everyone around widened their eyes.

"Hold her now!"
