Chapter 260 The End of Mam. Su-Cui
After an hour, Su Qingtan followed Ling Qinglan and left the Ling Mansion. What he saw and heard frightened him very much.
“Lord, We’re in the Su Mansion.”
The groom’s humble voice came into his ears, which made Su Qingtan awake from deep thought. He jumped out of the carriage and the groom went away. Looking at the small mansion hanging an old plaque where two words, “Su Mansion”, were inscribed, Su Qingtan sighed with emotions.
The Su Family had changed a lot just in a half year.
“Knock, knock—”
Soon, the bleary-eyed gatekeeper opened the door with a crack and peeped out from inside. Seeing Su Qingtan who were in black, he stared at him and then shouted excitedly,
“First Master! You are back!”
Su Qingtan smiled and nodded. Anyway, it was his home. His mother and brother were still here.
The gatekeeper opened the door wide immediately and let Su Qingtan in, and then he shouted excitedly, “Master, Madam! First Master is back!”
“First Master is back, really?!”
Many servants awakened, and they came out one by one. Soon, dense footsteps came from the backyard, and then Su Huanli, Li Yue Lian and Su Qinghao went to the front hall hurriedly. They surprisedly saw Su Qingtan standing straightly in the front hall.
“Tan!”
“Eldest Brother!”
Li Yuelian grabbed Su Qingtan’s hands excitedly. With tears in her eyes, she sobbed and said, “What did you do in the past half year? I’m really worried about you!”
“Mom…”
Seeing his mother, his cold expression became gentle and he consoled his mother with a mild tone.
The woman had treated him well since he was a child. Whether he was excellent or not, and whether he made a right decision or not, she always stood by his side without hesitation.
Although mother didn’t like Second Sister before, she never bullied her. His mother had nothing to do with the thing that Su Li was forced to leave the Su Family.
“Eldest Brother!”
Su Qinghao’s eyes was full of excitement. In his mind, the Eldest Brother was his adoring idol. By his own strength, Su Qingtan became the Officer of the Supreme Judiciary from a shabby scholar in just two years, which was so hard for ordinary people.
“Hao, you grow taller!”
Su Qingtan smiled pleasantly, and touched Su Qinghao’s head. Su Qinghao shook his head awkwardly and complained, “Eldest Brother, I have grown up!”
Su Qingtan laughed immediately, and considered that he was a lovely boy as before.
“Tan, it’s good for you to come back. During this period, our family was in a mess.”
Su Huanli felt unhappy and he would like to say something, but he saw Su Qingtan’s face suddenly became grim, “I have known something from the Supreme Judiciary. So, what do you want to say, dad?”
Su Huanli changed his expression slightly, and he was more than angry. His son was kind to his mother and his brother, while he was unfriendly to him!
“You disobedient boy! Do you know who you are talking to? What’s your attitude?!”
Su Huanli kept scolding him petulantly.
When Su Qingtan became more indifferent, and he would like to respond, a woman with silver hair was coming. She was the one in the highest position in the Su family. She was Su Huanli’s mother, Mam. Su-Cui.
She walked quickly with a crutch. She tightly grasped the sleeves of Su Qingtan and said something rapidly.
“Ah! My grandson, you’re back finally! If you haven’t been back, Erya would bully our Su Family again!”
Hearing it, Su Qingtan frowned without any words, while Su Qinghao couldn’t help refuting confidently.
“Grandma, you are wrong! My Second Sister wasn’t wrong and she also did not bully us. It was the First Mother who should be blamed…”
“Shut up!”
Mam. Su-Cui’s face turned gloomy. Her scolding made Su Qingtan pale. If he didn’t keep the filial piety in his mind, he really wanted to beat this old woman!
Not for anything else but for the truth that she was a real scum.
Su Qinghao looked at Su Qingtan who was expressionless and calmed himself down. Regardless of his mother’s usual warning, he said, “It is really a shame that you are my grandmother!”
The dirty eyes on her old face were suddenly full of anger. She grabbed the indifferent Su Qingtan and pointed to Su Qinghao with another hand. Then she said, “Useless guy! I am your grandmother. You dare to talk to me like that. How did your mother teach you daily!”
When she said that, she did not notice that Su Qingtan looked fiercer. Then she continued to pretend to be blameless,
“First Grandson, maybe you don’t know what happened these days. Your First Mother and Third Sister were set up by the evil Erya. And I don’t know what kind of hard life my poor Xiaoyan is having now in the frontier. Zipei became a slave. All these things are related to Erya who you have been protecting!”
“Such a wicked girl. You even have protected her before!”
“Did you know that she dared to rob the identity of the princess, which should be Zipei’s? Her mind is really tricky and vicious! If you still protect her, perhaps she will take advantage of you later!”
“Since she became the Princess, she hasn’t come back again. And she hasn’t brought benefits to the Su Family, which made me angry!”
The more Mam. Su-Cui said, the angrier she became. She beat on her chest and tried to persuade him.
She dared to say this naturally because of her position in the family. In other words, she took advantage of her seniority. She was in the highest position in the whole Su Family. Although she said some words straightly, no one would disobey her face to face.
At least, she thought that in this way.
But when she ended the long persuasion, the room was in terribly silence. Su Qingtan… didn’t response any words.
Seeing the scene, Mam. Su-Cui worried a lot. At the same time, she encouraged herself continuously.
It couldn’t be so!
She was the grandma of Su Qingtan!
“Ho-ho…”
After a long period of silence, Su Qingtan laughed suddenly and said to his grandma, “Grandma, have you finished?”
Mam. Su-Cui was happy. When she was about to add something, Su Qingtan stopped laughing instantly and his expression became grim.
“Mam. Su-Cui, you are a senior, and I respect you for that. But… who gave you the courage to tell such a lie? Do you think that all people in the world are fools except you?!”
After he said this, Mam. Su-Cui changed her face immediately. And then she became so ashamed and angry that she shivered from head to toe. She pointed to Su Qingtan, “Unfilial boy, you dare to disobey me!”
Su Qingtan became indifferent, and he threw the hands of Mam. Su-Cui, which made her suddenly stumble and almost fall down.
“You are my grandma, otherwise… do you think that you can still stand up and talk to me?!”
During their talk, a powerful force from the inborn realm appeared instantly. Mam. Su-Cui could not afford the force and fell down with panic on her wrinkled old face.
Su Qingtan dared to force her!
They were in Dahan Country, where the “filial piety” was advocated as the most important thing!
“The ‘filial piety’ was upheld in books. People should respect the elders, but it doesn’t mean that they should be shameless. Do you think that since you are my grandmother, you can flirt with the whole family?”
Su Qingtan looked indifferent and continued, “I won’t dispute all kinds of dirty things in Dasu Town with you, because my Second Sister does not want to deal with that. However, Zhu Yan and Su Zipei robbed the opportunity of her, and you called black white. Do you want me to help you to harm my Second Sister?”
Mam. Su-Cui fell down to the ground. She trembled and was unable to speak.
Su Qingtan who came back after a half year became completely different!
The “filial piety” that he insisted on in his mind was no longer a firm bound for him. If it was in the past, no matter how angry he was, it was impossible for him to disobey his grandmother directly. But he did it now, and he did it without hesitation.
Qiyu Xuangong!
Su Qingtan became expressionless, and sighed silently. After all, it was the evil martial art, which gave rise to somehow impact on his heart, but the impact did not make him disgusted. If he really thought about it, he was more grateful to Ling Qinglan who could gave him the opportunity to change. Otherwise, he would be constrained in the hypocritical books of Dahan Country.
“Listen, you all! From now on, Mam. Su-Cui will live in the Third Backyard, and she can’t leave there. No one shall obey her except for her needs of life. If someone disobeys, he or she will be driven out of the Su Family!”
After his command, Su Huanli changed his face quickly and Li Yuelian was also shocked. Only Su Qinghao clenched his fists excitedly.
The old woman, whom he had already detested before, was punished by his First Brother at last.
Since Su Qingtan became the Officer of the Supreme Judiciary, the sovereignty of the Su Family fell in his hands. When he gave the order, some bold servants came to take Mam. Su-Cui out.
Staying in the backyard and waiting to die was the end of the Mam. Su-Cui.
After done that, Su Qingtan looked at the servants with a cool expression. Then he hummed and said, “If you let me hear the gossip about my Second Sister again, all of you will be driven out from the Su Family! Understand?”
“Yes!”
The servants answered simultaneously, then they withdraw with awe. There were only Su Huanli, Li Yuelian and Su Qinghao in the room.
Looking at Su Huanli, Su Qingtan said, “Dad, thanks to the Baiwei Building left by my Second Sister, our Su Family do not worry about the daily expenses, and you should be satisfied. A content mind is a perpetual feast, and I believe that you know this truth, right?” Although Su Qingtan said respectfully, but he was warning his father.
Su Huanli squinted slightly with a hum, then he swung the sleeves and went away.
To deal with Su Li?
He was not bold and crazy like Mam. Su-Cui and Zhu Yan. How could he offend Su Li who had become the Princess?
He never thought about that kind of thing. It was enough for him to get money from the Baiwei Building.
Li Yuelian sighed gently and walked to Su Qingtan with a trace of appreciation in her eyes. She said, “You are my great son, and you are clear for what is right and what is wrong. I understand these things, but I can only protect ourselves. Now you became the head of our Su Family. Actually, we don’t need to be so careful. Today, I feel gratified for you to be so ambitious.”
His mother’s praise made Su Qingtan a little embarrassed. He knew that his mother was very smart. So, he did not afraid that his mother would have prejudice against him.
“Well, it was late now. You can take a bath and have a rest.”
Li Yuelian was busy for a whole day and she was very tired. She went to rest soon, leaving Su Qinghao and Su Qingtan to talk for the whole night.
“Eldest Brother, since Second Sister became the Princess, she hasn’t changed at all except that she has become busy daily. I took Fourth Sister to play with her, and she welcomed us, which was really different from what grandma said…”
Su Qinghao expected to clarify for Su Li, so, he told his Eldest Brother all the things happened in the past half year in detail.
Soon, it was almost dawn.
