Chapter 161 1 Must Punish Miss 2 Severely
Su Xiangfu——
At this moment, all the members of the Su family gathered in Old Madam Su's yard, and the atmosphere was a bit heavy.
"Why did grandma want to bring her back?" Su Ce glanced at Su Mingyue coldly, not understanding why she had to be brought back.
Since Su Mingyue wants to please the Princess's Mansion, then she can stay there, and the Su family will just pretend that she doesn't exist.
Su Ce had already washed and dressed in blue clothes, looking like a nobleman again.
"The old lady said that no matter what, the second young lady's surname is Su." Nanny Su conveyed the old lady Su's meaning.
"Does she still remember her last name is Su?" Su Ce snorted coldly.
"The old lady would like to ask the eldest young master, the autumn examination is approaching, and he should be studying in the academy now, so why did he come back?" Nanny Su did not respond to Su Ce's words, but asked on behalf of the old lady.
"Grandma, Ce came back because he received an urgent letter from my sister." Su Ce looked at Old Madam Su respectfully: "The teacher has also asked for leave."
Su Jian glared at Su Mingyue in dissatisfaction, knowing that it was all her fault.
Su Mingyue glanced awkwardly at everyone in the hall, then carefully moved to hide behind Shen.
Shen's body stiffened, but she still picked up the teacup as if nothing had happened and asked the maid to serve tea to everyone present.
Madam Su's eyes fell on Su Ce. He was the eldest son of the Su family and would shoulder the responsibility of the entire Su family in the future. But now, he had put aside his studies and returned home because of a letter from Su Mingyue. After returning, he went to the Zhan Palace without understanding the situation and ended up returning in disgrace.
It seems that Su Ce still doesn't understand the four words "assess the situation".
After Su Mingyue was brought back, Su Ce was full of resentment and did not understand the meaning of having the same surname and clan.
There was disappointment in Madam Su's eyes. Su Ce's heart tightened and he immediately sat upright in the chair, thinking about his actions today.
"Master, you should know that you are different from the Second Miss. In the future, you will have to shoulder the responsibility of the entire Su family."
Nanny Su stood in front of Old Madam Su, who was writing something on her back. Nanny Su helped convey Old Madam Su's meaning.
"Nothing in the Su family is more important than your participation in the imperial examination this year. The marriages of your sisters are not something you should worry about."
"Do you know this?"
Su Ce immediately stood up and admitted his mistake, saying, "I was impulsive when I asked for leave to go home this time, but my second sister wrote that letter urgently, so I was anxious at the time. I was wrong in this matter."
Su Ce has realized that he did not verify the facts and only believed Su Mingyue's one-sided statement.
If something really happened to the Su family, his father would definitely write to him. He was indeed impulsive, especially when he heard that Su Mingyue was kneeling at the door of Prince Zhan's mansion. Su Ce was not sure if he had the ability to solve the problem, so he went straight there, which ended up causing him humiliation.
You can't blame anyone else for this.
Seeing that Su Ce had calmed down, Madam Su thought he was a teachable boy. She then turned to look at Su Jian, and continued writing behind Madam Su's back.
Nanny Su glanced at Su Jian, then said, "Old Madam said that as long as the Su family remains stable, there won't be any trouble. It's not a critical moment yet."
"It's too early to use daytime fireworks."
Old Madam Su had originally planned to discuss this matter with Su Jian in private, but now both Su Ce and Su Mingyue were a little confused, so she said it in public.
Su Jian glanced at Madam Su, hesitant to speak, but ultimately chose not to defend himself. His biggest concern was the three-day snowfall mentioned by the War King, and the influence the Shen family would have on the Su family under the current circumstances.
If the old lady didn't come back to take charge, the prime minister's mansion would be in chaos.
In particular, Su Jian had not yet decided which side to stand on tomorrow. Now that the old lady had returned, he had a plan in mind.
After ordering Su Ce and Su Jian.
Old Madam Su then turned her gaze to Su Mingyue. Her expression turned cold, and she gave instructions with her fingers behind Madam Su's back.
"Second Miss, kneel down." Nanny Su said to Su Mingyue with a stern face.
Su Mingyue nervously grabbed Shen's dress from behind. When Shen turned around and looked at Su Mingyue, she looked at Shen for help.
"Second Miss!" Nanny Su frowned.
"Hurry up and kneel down to apologize to your grandmother!" Shen looked at Su Mingyue with a stern face and winked at her.
Su Mingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward and knelt on the ground properly.
"The old lady asked you, do you like kneeling?" Nanny Su asked with a cold face.
Su Mingyue looked at Old Madam Su with a pale face, tears welling up in her eyes. "Grandma, my granddaughter was taken away from home by the eldest princess. I was taught all kinds of lessons in the princess's mansion and was forced to kneel in front of Prince Zhan's mansion. This was definitely not Mingyue's intention."
Su Ce couldn't help but snort coldly.
Shen's face also looked a little ugly.
This was not what Su Mingyue said when they were at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion before.
Su Jian's face was also very ugly. Su Mingyue was equivalent to complaining about him in front of Old Madam Su.
"What about the matter of claiming the credit for the young lady's rescue?" Nanny Su asked with a cold face.
Su Mingyue's face turned pale, and she turned to look at Shen, also thinking about how to make this matter go away.
"Everyone else, please leave first!" When Shen saw the old lady talking about this matter, she asked all the maids serving in the hall to leave.
Then she stood up and bowed to Madam Su: "This is my fault, mother. You know the situation at home."
Shen glanced at Su Mingyue, her eyes slightly red. "Mingyue had never been in the Su family before, and she had suffered a lot since she was a child. So, my daughter-in-law did have some bad thoughts about the matter with the prince."
"Jixue has been spoiled since she was a child, and has a somewhat straightforward and willful personality. At that time, my daughter-in-law thought that if she married into the Marquis's mansion, it would be a blessing rather than a curse, so she decided to let Mingyue, who has a more suitable personality, take over."
"I really misjudged this matter."
Shen said with lowered eyebrows.
Although it was Su Mingyue who mentioned it indirectly at the beginning, in the current situation, Shen couldn't escape the blame anyway, so she wanted to save her daughter.
"Jixue and Lu Jing grew up together. Don't you really know the friendship between them?!" Nanny Su swept her sharp eyes across Shen and Su Jian's faces. Even Mrs. Su, who lived in the manor for a long time, knew about this matter.
How could Su Jian and Shen not know?
The two of them had definitely had evil thoughts at that time.
There was silence.
"Since Jixue was raised in the Su family, she is the eldest daughter of the Su family. All family members must watch over and help each other so that the family can prosper."
"You only see the benefit of Jixue being able to save the prince, but you don't see Jixue's medical skills that surpass the entire Imperial Medical Bureau?"
"Why did the War King rescue Jixue the first thing he did when he returned? What do you think it was for?"
"Don't you understand how important a young lady with extraordinary medical skills is to the Su family?"
"That girl is very affectionate, and she's been raised by my side since she was little. But if you didn't know she has special skills until she encountered trouble, you'd be really blind!"
"This time, the Second Miss must pay the price!"
