Chapter 563 - 563: Odd Fourth Aunt
This day, Chu Xiaotian spent in fear.
In the evening, Madam Sheng came to comfort him. “Son, you’re a Regional Prince and serve in the Five Cities Military Department. How can you allow a woman to control you? If this gets out, what prestige will you have left? How will you command the troops in the future?”
“Mother, 1 know what to do,” Chu Xiaotian said, feeling even more frustrated.
“Mother is a woman, and I understand a woman’s thoughts. It’s just a passing fancy. Can Su Han leave you? Can the Su family accept an abandoned wife? Would their Marquis’s Manor’s reputation still stand? The Su family still has several unmarried daughters. Do they still have a future? Su Han is just trying to show off to you, taking advantage of your love and doing as she pleases!”
It was rare for Madam Sheng not to make a fuss. She spoke calmly to Chu Xiaotian.
Chu Xiaotian felt it made sense, nodding in agreement. “Su Han wouldn’t dare to leave me!”
Su Han valued her family’s honor. If she left, she would have no good days ahead!
“So, you don’t need to bring her to the family banquet at the Marquis’s Manor the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, you’ll give the Su family a chance to humiliate you. Isn’t Su Yingxue insulting you enough? Haven’t your sister and 1 suffered enough?” Madam Sheng started crying as she mentioned her grievances.
“Mother, 1 understand,” Chu Xiaotian said.
Madam Sheng persuaded Chu Xiaotian, and he decided not to bring Su Han back to the Marquis’s Manor the day after tomorrow.
Madam Sheng left Chu Xiaotian’s study with a sinister smile.
She went to tell Min Jia about it, and Min Jia was so happy she almost jumped up. She smiled smugly. “Brother, you’re going to the Marquis’s Manor alone. Doesn’t that mean we can torment Su Han as we please? Mother, I want to break her legs and make her suffer as much as I do!”
“Alright, Mother will break her legs for you! The Su family are all bitches!”
Madam Sheng hugged Min Jia with heartache.
Outside the window, Su Jinxuan’s eyes flashed with coldness.
At the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor, although it was a family banquet, Su Yingxue had prepared for several days, so it was still very decent.
Su Dingwei and Qin Wan were the first to arrive. They were talking to Su Qingzhi in the inner hall. Although Su Qingzhi was serious, he was still happy to see his children. There was a smile on the old man’s face.
Su Yingxue was welcoming guests at the entrance. Just as she welcomed her third uncle’s family into the house, a rather expensive carriage arrived.
Looking at the three-horse carriage, Su Yingxue was puzzled. “Who’s in this carriage?”
Today, she had only invited the Su family and no one else.
These three carriages took up half of the street. Only noble families could ride in them.
Zhilan followed beside Su Yingxue and was also very puzzled. “Miss, could it be that Miss Han is here?”
Su Yingxue shook her head. “This is not the carriage of the Regional Prince’s Mansion. Cousin is not a flamboyant person.”
The carriage had stopped at the entrance of the Marquis’s Manor for a while, but no one came down. The coachman moved the ladder and stood there for a while.
Su Yingxue was also standing at the door. After a while, no one got out of the car. Instead, a cold scoff came out. “Such a big Marquis’s Manor, but there’s no one who knows the rules!”
Su Yingxue smiled.
This voice reminded her of something.
It was her fourth aunt!
Su Yingxue brought Zhilan forward and smiled lightly in front of the carriage. “Yingxue, you’ve been neglectful. Aunt, are you still not planning to get off?”
“Humph, your Marquis’s Manor is now so high that 1 can’t climb down from it. How would I dare to trouble you, the Marquis Manor’s legitimate daughter, to invite me down the carriage?” Inside, the woman’s lazy voice carried a hint of arrogance.
Her tone was still very firm..
