Chapter 486: Schadenfreude

"You, the Su family, are all black-hearted. You stepped on the corpses of my daughter and granddaughter to seek wealth and glory. You deserve to have your engagement broken off!"

Qin Fangcheng's shouting and cursing could be faintly heard outside.

Su Ying covered her head, turned over and continued to sleep, too lazy to care about this trivial matter.

Xiaotao and Atang had already run out, holding Li Nu.

"Qin Fangcheng, you old fool, you can't tell right from wrong, you mix up black and white. No wonder you raised idiots like Qin Jiuniang and Qin Shibao!"

Old Mrs. Su came out angrily, leaning on a cane.

"Your Ninth Lady refused to follow my Su family through hardship, and within a few days of arriving in Lingnan, she started to act like a tyrant.

My Erlang had no choice but to divorce her, and they went their separate ways long ago.

Jiu Niang and A He were killed by hunters. My husband Erlang was kind-hearted and, considering they were husband and wife, he brought their bodies back to Huanggou Village for burial.

You are alone and helpless, so my two grandsons got the news and rushed back to Xingyang from Lingnan to take you two old people to Chang'an to support you.

What did you two old bastards do? You plotted against my two clueless grandsons and tried to drag my Su family down with you!

The Su family has provided you with delicious food and drink for a year and a half, but now that the family has split up and Erlang and Sanlang have moved out, you are not happy about it!

"Who do you think you are? It's not your turn to give orders to the dignified Shao Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture!" Old Madam Su scolded.

Qin Fangcheng snorted coldly, "Qin Liang, stop being so hypocritical. What do you mean Jiu Niang is unwilling to follow the Su family through hardships?

Don’t think I don’t know how you squeeze and bully Jiu Niang and her daughter!

It would have been fine if we just wanted a divorce, but you, a black-hearted person, deceived my poor Jiu Niang and gave Jiu Niang and A'he to the hunter with your own hands.

You knew that the hunter had killed two women, yet you pushed my Jiu Niang into the fire pit. What are you thinking?"

The people in Jingzhao Prefecture did not expect that there would be another big news today, so they all hid behind the gate and listened attentively.

I can’t believe there are so many melons to eat in the Su Mansion!

"What am I thinking?" Old Mrs. Su was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the brothers Su Shiyan and Su Chenyan calmly.

The two brothers silently shrank to the side, having done something stupid on impulse.

Filled with righteous indignation, he told his grandparents the story of how his mother and sister had gone to the hunter's house, adding more details to the story.

I thought that the grandparents were of one mind, but it turned out that my grandparents plotted against them. Now I regret it so much.

"I was the one who took Jiu Niang and Ah He to the town. They wanted to go there on their own. Can an old woman like me really force them to go there with a whip?

They make trouble and act like trouble every day. If I don’t send these two away, my Su family will be broken up!

My Su family was kind-hearted and gave her and her mother a chance to survive.

If a wealthy family were to make such a fuss and act without rules, they would have been beaten to death long ago!" Old Mrs. Su was fearless.

If you want to make a fuss, then make a fuss, so that the whole city of Qinfangcheng won’t be filled with noise.

What's the point of talking about face? If you talk about face, you will just be waiting for others to throw dirty water on you!

The old lady has learned her lesson and knows that there is no point in having any face to talk to a scoundrel.

Su Laoer and Su Laosan brought a bullock cart to move.

Su Laoer ordered his men to load the luggage of Su Shiyan and Qin Fangcheng directly into the car.

Su Laosan ordered people to load their belongings into the truck.

"Aye!" Su Shiyan didn't want to live with his grandfather.

"Shi Yan, Chen Yan, your grandpa is old, so you should spend more time with him on your days off from school!"

Su Laoer patted his two sons on the shoulders, ignoring the brothers' reluctant expressions.

It is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. This big Buddha was invited by you two brothers, so just accept it!

"Su Lao Er, I am your father-in-law! You are a heartless, heartless bastard. You are just trying to curry favor with the powerful. Don't think that you can rise to prominence just by getting into the Duke's Mansion!

"Dare to neglect me, an old man? I'll have you dismissed from office tomorrow!" Qin Fangcheng scolded.

"Uncle Qin, I've already said that Jiu Niang and I divorced a long time ago, and my new wife gave birth to a one-year-old child. Uncle Qin, please don't make random accusations and slander the Duke's Mansion.

Otherwise, if you anger the Duke's Mansion and they sue you for defamation, you will be in big trouble!

If you feel uncomfortable in the small courtyard where you are placed, I will send you back to Xingyang!" Su Laoer said coldly.

Qin Fangcheng thought that if he made a big deal out of it, the Su family would keep him for the sake of their reputation, but he didn't expect that they wouldn't buy it at all.

If we want to split up the family, we can split up the family, but what's the point of placing him alone?

When the bride comes, his former father-in-law has to stay away?

Why? He has three grandchildren, two of whom are already adults and are about to take the imperial examinations. The youngest is ten years old and very smart. He will have a good life in the future.

First come, first served. What right does the bride have to act so arrogantly in front of him? Is the Duke's Mansion so great?

He was unwilling to leave just to disrupt the relationship between Su Laoer and Yang Chunhua, hanging around them every day and causing trouble.

You're dreaming about using the excuse of dividing the family to get yourself out now!

If I don't live well, your Su family won't have a chance either!

"Ka!" These words successfully shut Qin Fangcheng up and he got into the car obediently.

She was taken care of by the Su family, and there were people to serve her in the rented courtyard, so she had no worries about food and drink.

He didn't want to go back to Xingyang. He had lost his home and his land. Everyone in the family knew that Qin Jiuniang and Su's second son had divorced long ago.

If I go back, there will be no one to support me, and sooner or later I will freeze to death in the cold winter.

The feeling of being cold and hungry was so uncomfortable. I was stupid enough to leave the Su Mansion!

Su Laoer specially rented a house for Qin Fangcheng in Tongshanfang, southeast of the city, so that it would be far away to avoid being an eyesore.

Su Laosan rented a small courtyard in the alley behind the Su Mansion in Guangdefang. The two houses were back to back, separated by a wall, and they could walk around by opening a door in the wall.

Yang Chunhua took the twins, a boy and a girl, and Su Zhaoyan to live temporarily in Shaoyin's mansion.

The old house of Old Man Yang in Taipingfang has been in disrepair for many years.

Gao Luxing, the eldest son of the Duke of Yixing County, took the initiative to find someone to repair it. The repair will take at least half a year.

The old couple Yang temporarily lived in the residence of the Duke of Yixing.

They have been busy these past two days picking up their families and looking for a house. After Su Lao Er and Su Lao San met the emperor, they did not have time to go to the Ministry of Personnel to inquire about promotions and transfers.

Seeing that Yang Chunhua had to take care of two children and Su Zhaoyan, Su Laoer was torn between whether to stay at his brother's house or rent another small courtyard.

As Su Ying said, that meager salary was not enough to support two houses.

Alas, I have to go back to Lingnan anyway, so I might as well wait for two years, get promoted or transferred, and bring Yang Chunhua and her son to my side.

"Is it over?" The official who was hiding behind the gate of Jingzhao Prefecture and watching the show did not expect it to be over so soon.

"What are you looking at?" Prefect Li Hong was returning to the yamen after court when he saw his subordinates eavesdropping with sly eyes.

"Sir! It's too lively at Shao Yin's Mansion. Haha, we..." The subordinate laughed awkwardly.

"Tsk! I knew you wouldn't work hard!" Li Hongshi pointed at the group of onlookers and cursed with laughter, "The Shaoyin Mansion is bustling, but it can't compare to the bustling Lu Shilang Mansion!"

"Sir, you didn't see it. Yesterday, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Minister Lu came to make trouble, and they were thrown out by the guards of the Eastern Palace!" The onlookers surrounded the prefect, wanting to hear the latest news.

"Minister Lu should now be called Yuanwailang Lu. He will be transferred to Rongzhou Prefecture in Lingnan Province to repair the official road! His family will accompany him!" Li Hongshi drank a sip of hot tea and said gloatingly.
