Shengjing Noble

Chapter 132: Torturing the Bad Dad

"What are you doing? Do you want to show off your mother's favor again?" Su Shengming felt uncomfortable. His eyes turned slightly red as he looked at the pendant.

Su Shengyun smiled gently, grabbed his hand and placed the pendant in his palm.

"Haven't you always wanted it? I'm giving it to you today. I hope it can protect you and ward off evil spirits when you follow your uncle to study business in the future."

"What? You...are you serious? I don't believe it!"

Su Shengming was flattered, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he even had doubts.

"You didn't pretend to give it to me, and then go to your mother and complain that I stole it from you, did you?"

Su Shengyun looked at him speechlessly: "How could that be? This is not what a gentleman does. Why am I so unbearable in your eyes?"

"Then why are you willing to give this to me?"

"Because you are my brother."

"I……"

Su Shengming was speechless, and suddenly he felt that the pendant in his hand weighed a thousand pounds.

His mind was in turmoil, and he gritted his teeth not to let the tears fall, but in the end he could not hold back, unable to resist the emotions that swept over him like a flood.

"Third brother..."

He choked up several times, then fell into Su Shengyun's arms and started crying.

This was the first time in so many years that he admitted that he was the third brother.

Su Shengyun smiled knowingly, patted his back, and said softly, "Fourth brother."

The two brothers completely reconciled their past grudges and there was no estrangement between them from then on.

……

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and tomorrow was the day of the imperial examination.

Su Lanyin deliberately hid Su Shengming's affairs from everyone, and made him live in Langya Pavilion and not allowed to go out.

Therefore, Liu Ruyan only knew that he had been turned into a human pig, but she didn't know that he had been secretly rescued by Su Lanyin a long time ago.

So, after enduring for a few days, she finally waited for the right opportunity and brought the matter to Su Yongcheng's attention.

She knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, shedding crocodile tears, but she looked like a helpless and desperate mother.

Those who didn’t know would think that she was heartbroken and cared a lot about Su Shengming.

"Master, I am useless. I have no other choice but to tell you. What shall I do now..."

Su Yongcheng didn't understand what was going on. He was writing a poem with a pen in his hand. When he heard her crying, his heart suddenly tightened.

"Why are you crying for no reason? Did something happen to Hao'er and Xin'er?"

Liu Ruyan bit her handkerchief and shook her head, looking sad.

"So mother is seriously ill?"

"Neither...nor." Liu Ruyan replied with sobs.

"What is that? Could something have happened to you?" Su Yongcheng asked all the people he was worried about, but he didn't even think about Lu Wanjun.

In his heart, Lu Wanjun, who came from a merchant family, had an upright character and was profit-driven, did not deserve his concern at all.

If he had not coveted the Lu family's wealth back then, how could he have thrown away his dignity and knelt on the ground to ask for marriage?

Therefore, over the years, he had been content to enjoy Lu Wanjun's efforts but ignored her, just to regain the dignity he lost when he was young.

Liu Ruyan shook her head again: "Neither."

Su Yongcheng felt inexplicably relieved. As long as these people were fine, he really had nothing to worry about.

"Don't cry, get up and sit down to cool down." He was very caring. He put down the pen in his hand and personally stood up to help Liu Ruyan onto the couch.

"Ruyan, tell me what happened?"

Liu Ruyan then sobbed and told the whole story of Su Shengming, but all the frame-ups and plots against her were covered up.

After hearing this, Su Yongcheng was so angry that he slapped the table next to him, making his hand numb.

Liu Ruyan pretended to be distressed and said, "Master, please calm down. Be careful not to be too angry. I will definitely raise money as soon as possible and find a way to redeem Shengming."

"Why redeem that heartless bastard? It would be better to let him fend for himself and save the Su family from shame!"

"That being said, he is, after all, our master's child, the bloodline of the Su family..."

"What the hell is he! He's just a useless piece of shit! Any child born by Lu Wanjun is trash!"

"master……"

"Don't redeem him, just let him die!"

"If this gets out, I'm afraid it will affect the master's reputation. Even if he can't survive, he has to return to the Su family. If others know that we let him die without a complete body and wander around outside, how can we deal with the rumors?"

Su Yongcheng nodded immediately after hearing this: "Ruyan, you are still thoughtful. We can't let this bastard affect the Su family."

At this point, Liu Ruyan became worried: "But I haven't been able to raise enough money in three days. Shengming is betting too much this time. I'm afraid we really can't afford it."

"Why should we be responsible? Since it's Lu Wanjun's child, she should be responsible for it!"

After saying that, Su Yongcheng shouted towards the door: "Someone, let Lu Wanjun come to see me!"

"Yes!"

……

After about an incense stick of time, Su Yongcheng and Liu Ruyan became impatient and were about to send someone to urge them, but they saw Su Lanyin arriving late.

She stood in front of the two men calmly, and was almost too lazy to observe the most basic etiquette.

"Why are you here?" Su Yongcheng asked.

"Father and the eldest lady wanted to see my mother, but unfortunately she was not feeling well. Doctor Xue said she needed to stay in bed, so I came for her." Su Lanyin answered with her head held high.

"You're here for her? Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that? You really don't know any rules! How did Lu Wanjun educate her children? Each one is more disgusting than the other!"

Hearing him scolding her mother, Su Lanyin couldn't bear it and immediately retorted: "How can you say that? No matter what, my mother is your wife who gave birth to your children. She has given everything for you for so many years. Even if she has no merit, she has worked hard, right? How can father be so ungrateful? Isn't he afraid that it will get out and people will criticize him?"

"You...you evil creature, I will beat you to death!"

Su Yongcheng couldn't argue with her, so he got angry and rushed towards her with his hand raised, and was about to hit Su Lanyin's face.

The next second, the delicate girl nimbly dodged behind him and gave him a gentle push.

"Ouch!"

Su Yongcheng fell forward and heavily to the ground, landing in the mud.

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan screamed, "What are you doing? He's your father!"

As he was about to rush over to help Su Yongcheng, he didn't pay attention to his feet when he passed by Su Lanyin and was tripped and fell out.

She did not fall to the ground, but instead fell heavily on Su Yongcheng.

The two men were stacked on top of each other, and because of their age, their movements were a little clumsy, so they struggled to get up, swearing and grumbling.

Su Lanyin felt so happy in her heart. She retracted her foot and looked down at them with a smile on her face.

"Father and the eldest lady really value etiquette. They even taught me etiquette personally."
