Chapter 136 I'm Not Familiar with You
Su Dingqin was full of grievances and went to welcome his father happily, but ended up being kicked over.
"Father, what did your son do wrong?"
He struggled to get up, but Su Huaiyuan shouted, "Kneel down!"
He immediately knelt back down.
"Father, it is only natural for you to punish your son, but you must also explain why and let your son know clearly."
Su Huaiyuan laughed angrily and pointed at Yu Shengsheng: "Shengsheng is here, what else do you not understand?"
Su Dingqin turned to look at Yu Shengsheng with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Father, is there any misunderstanding?" Su Yanshu asked, looking at Yu Shengsheng, "Shengsheng, you..."
"It's none of Shengsheng's business," Su Huaiyuan interrupted him. "Dingqin, let me ask you, what happened to Shengsheng's arm? Did you break it? As a brother, you broke your sister's arm and didn't treat her in time, causing her to suffer from a chronic disease."
"Tell me, should you be punished?"
So that's why.
Su Dingqin straightened his back and said, "Father, I did nothing wrong. I broke Shengsheng's arm, but that was because she caused Zhiyi to become... I didn't hit her lightly!"
Yu Shengsheng clenched her wrists with an expressionless face. She had never thought that she would hear any words of apology from Su Dingqin.
She doesn't need it either.
"Asshole!" Su Huaiyuan kicked him again, knocking him over. "You are convicted of your sister's murder based on a servant's one-sided statement. Even if she is, you should ask whether it was intentional or unintentional. You came up and broke her arm, and you didn't care about her. Do you want to kill her?"
Su Dingqin pursed his lips and said nothing. He didn't want to kill Yu Shengsheng. After all, she was a petite and weak sister.
But at that time... what happened at that time? He was a little fuzzy and couldn't remember it clearly.
"Kneel here and reflect on your actions."
Su Huaiyuan turned to Yu Shengsheng and said, "Shengsheng, follow me."
Facing Yu Shengsheng, his tone softened, and the clumsy kindness in his severity burned the eyes of those present.
Su Zhiyi pinched his palms with his fingernails and his breathing was tense.
Su Yanshu walked forward and pushed her, then followed silently behind.
The old lady's yard was also a bit dull. She should have been happy, but it was because Ruan Jing came into the house and Madam Su was still angry. She had a long face since she came. The old lady was too lazy to coax her and just kept turning her Buddhist beads and ignored her.
When she saw Su Huaiyuan coming with Yu Shengsheng beside him, the old lady's eyes flashed slightly.
"The meal is ready," the old lady said, "Please sit down."
Su Huaiyuan helped the old lady down from the couch and sat down, then turned his head and said to the others, "Wait a minute."
Mrs. Su was about to sit down, and subconsciously asked, "What are you waiting for?"
As soon as the words fell, Ruan Jing's voice came from outside: "Sorry, I'm late."
She came in through the curtain, having changed her clothes, this time into a beige suit that looked more casual than the previous one. Her hair was still tied up, but the headband was changed to the same color, with a thumb-sized red gem embedded in the middle.
Mrs. Su's expression immediately changed: "What are you doing here?"
Ruan Jing smiled faintly: "Brother Su said there is a welcoming banquet at home."
Madam Su laughed briefly, "The welcoming banquet is for my husband, not for you. Even if you are a guest, you have already been rude by coming uninvited. Do you want to become the host?"
Ruan Jing didn't say anything and looked up at Su Huaiyuan.
Su Huaiyuan said in a deep voice: "Enough, listen to what you are saying? Do you still look like the mistress of the house?"
"Is this how you usually manage your household? No wonder these children have become useless under your care and don't know right from wrong."
These words were quite harsh, and Su Yanshu and Su Zhiyi's faces instantly turned unhappy.
Madam Su couldn't believe it and patted her chest: "I don't look like the mistress of the house? I heard that you were coming back, so I got up before dawn and went to the kitchen to work, just so that you could have a bite of your favorite meal."
"What's wrong with your children? Which one of your sons or daughters has embarrassed you?"
She glanced at him and asked, "Where's Ding Qin?"
"Don't look for him anymore. I told him to kneel down and reflect on his mistakes. He is not allowed to eat until he admits his mistakes."
"Reflect? What do you want him to reflect on? What happened to my son?"
Su Huaiyuan pointed at Yu Shengsheng and said, "Shengsheng's hand, was it him who broke it? You still have the nerve to ask me that?"
Everyone looked at Yu Shengsheng.
The old lady's eyes were obviously unfriendly, and Mrs. Su was a little dissatisfied.
Ruan Jing stepped forward and gently held Yu Shengsheng's arm: "Where are you hurt? Oh my god, this broken bone hasn't healed yet, you... must be in a lot of pain, right? You've really suffered."
Yu Shengsheng gently withdrew her hand and said slowly, "Thank you for your concern."
Madam Su was furious. She came over and pulled Ruan Jing away, and pushed Yu Shengsheng: "Why are you thanking her? She bought you off with a few nice words? I really raised you in vain."
Yu Shengsheng raised her eyes to look at her. Mrs. Su in front of her looked very unfamiliar.
It was a side she had never seen before.
Mrs. Su has always been weak and tearful, with endless tears. For example, when she sees her being wronged, she will only cry silently;
When other children are hurt, she can show her strong side. For example, when she asks her to go to Zhenqiao Tower to save Su Dingqin, she is even a little fierce.
Now, Mrs. Su's eyes were red, her gaze was sharp, and her words were sharp, just like a beast protecting its food, showing her fangs at anyone who intended to steal her things.
Yu Shengsheng reached out to help her, and his lips brushed past her ear: "You have raised Su Zhiyi for more than ten years, do you think she speaks for you?"
Mrs. Su was startled and turned to look at her, but she had already let go of her hand.
Mrs. Su looked at Su Zhiyi again. Su Zhiyi met her gaze and sensed some unfriendly intent, feeling a little puzzled.
"Okay," Su Huaiyuan said, "Everyone is here, sit down and eat."
Madam Su angrily said, "What do you mean everyone is here? My son is missing! This is the meal I cooked. If my son doesn't come, others can't eat it. No way."
Ruan Jing pursed her lips and whispered, "Forget it, it's just a meal, it's the same no matter where you eat it, Brother Su, I won't be annoying anymore."
She turned around and was about to leave when she saw Yu Shengsheng again: "Shengsheng, I'm new to the capital and I'm not familiar with it. Could you please take me to a restaurant? I'll treat you to a meal outside, okay?"
Mrs. Su's eyes were as fiery as fire, and she immediately turned her attention to Yu Shengsheng.
In just one sentence, Yu Shengsheng was put on the fire.
"Miss Ruan," Yu Shengsheng said, "I'm not familiar with the restaurant, nor with you, so I can't lead the way for you. I'm not interested in other people's affairs."
She bowed and said, "I'll leave."
She turned and walked away, and Su Huaiyuan called out, “Shengsheng!”
Ruan Jing also shouted, but she didn't stop and didn't pay any attention.
Holding his arm lightly, he hurried back to the courtyard, his thoughts in a mess along the way. Ruan Jing was not a simple character, and the fight between her and Madam Su was probably still to come.
She wants to avenge Grandma Wu. Is Ruan Jing's arrival a good thing or a bad thing?
While she was thinking, someone called her from behind.
"Shengsheng!"
