Chapter 155: Is a scumbag worthy of being a witness?
This man is Grandma Wu’s eldest uncle, a scumbag who does all kinds of things including eating, drinking, gambling and whoring.
When Yu Shengsheng saw him, she couldn't help but get angry.
I think of the days when Grandma Wu was bullied and exploited by him.
"Who are you?" asked Mrs. Su.
Su Yanshu couldn't hide his disgust: "You'd better tell the truth."
"Yes, yes, I am Wu Da Lian," Wu Da Lian touched his pointed cheeks, "because I was fat in the past, and my face was big and round, so..."
"Let's get to the point," Su Huaishan interrupted, "Do you know her?"
Wu Da Lian turned his head in the direction he pointed and saw Yu Shengsheng.
"Yes, I know her. It's Shengsheng. My sister-in-law often takes care of her. If it weren't for that silly woman, this girl would have died countless times."
Yu Shengsheng did not deny this.
"Do you know her background?" Mrs. Su asked quickly, "How old was she when she was taken back by her adoptive mother?"
Wu Da Lian answered without hesitation: "When she was quite young, there was already a little girl in her family at that time. Every day, the two of them cried together and quarreled to death. Later, one of them died, and she was the only one left."
"She has benefited from our Wu family for so many years," Wu Dapo looked Yu Shengsheng up and down, greed flashing in his eyes. "Now that you are rich, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
Yu Shengsheng ignored him, and the clan leader angrily asked, "What else do you have to say?"
"He is from the Wu family," Mrs. Su also said, "Aren't you best friends with the deceased Mrs. Wu? You should have nothing to say when the Wu family talks, right?"
"What's wrong with the Wu family? Which family doesn't have a few scumbags?" Jin Baobao retorted, "There's also a little ungrateful one."
"Shut up. How can a maid like you have the right to speak?" Su Dingqin scolded angrily.
Su Zhiyi said slowly: "Brother, don't be angry. This matter concerns my sister's identity, so we must be careful."
Yu Shengsheng chuckled: "If you didn't say anything, I would have forgotten where is Zhuo Ge'er? Wu Da Lian, since you are here, take Zhuo Ge'er away. He is the last blood of your Wu family."
Wu Da Lian has no children, and the Wu family really only has Zhuo Ge'er as his bloodline.
Wu DaLian curled his lips and shook his head: "If not, why would I bring him? It's so nice here, with food and drink. I want to live here too."
He smiled and asked, "Are you still short of people?"
He looks like a scoundrel.
Su Huaishan shook his sleeves, feeling really disgusted, and turned his head to Su Huaiyuan and said, "Brother, did you see that? They all said that. Send them away quickly."
Su Huaiyuan glanced at Wu Da Lian and the mother and son of the Qi family: "Why are you here? Who asked you to come?"
Wu Da Lian glanced quickly at Qi Mubai.
The answer is obvious.
The clan leader said, "I asked the top scholar for help. The top scholar is not an outsider. He has been engaged to Zhiyi and has an obligation to do something for the Su family's bloodline."
Yu said: "Yes, we are all family, we are one family, we can't be deceived by an outsider."
Su Huaiyuan's face was gloomy and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He was a man who had been on the battlefield and killed people. The aura he exuded was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Who is an outsider?" Su Huaiyuan asked in a deep voice, "You just came here with a mouth, and you said it casually, and you called Shengsheng an outsider?"
"I think you are the outsiders. Even if your son marries Zhiyi, your surname is Yu, not Su."
"And you, a scoundrel." Su Huaiyuan glanced at Wu Da's face, then looked at the clan leader, "Can you trust the words of such a person?"
Before the clan leader could reply, someone said in a clear and pleasant voice, "Brother Su is absolutely right."
Ruan Jing walked over, wearing tight clothes and with her hair tied up, looking dashing.
She stood next to Yu Shengsheng: "Shengsheng, don't be afraid, I believe you."
Madam Su said in a sharp voice: "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy to stand here? This is our Su family's ancestral hall."
Ruan Jing said slowly: "Your last name is not Su either, Madam Su."
"I didn't go into the ancestral hall. What's the matter? Is this some kind of holy place that people can't get close to? Can't we even say a fair word?"
Ruan Jing said loudly, "Let's not talk about whether what these two people said is reliable or not. Even if what they said is true, what does it have to do with Shengsheng? She was abandoned since she was a child. She was able to grow up only because of her good luck. She suffered so much to get to where she is today. She is not the one who committed the sin, so you have the heart to point at her and scold her?"
"Both of them were abandoned, but I think Miss Su's fate is much better than Shengsheng's."
"At least, the love of the Su family has never changed. Now, even your future mother-in-law, who is ignorant, rude, and uneducated, is on your side."
Yu was startled and asked angrily, "Who are you talking about?"
"I will criticize anyone who is unreasonable, ignorant of etiquette, and uneducated," Ruan Jing said in a calm voice, but she did not give in with every word she said.
"you……"
"Brother Su," Ruan Jing said slowly, "I think these two people may have bad intentions. We need to question them carefully."
Su Huaiyuan nodded: "Not bad."
Madam Su interrupted, "You just listen to what she says? This is in front of the clan leader, uncle, and all the ancestors."
"Are you just going to let others talk about your daughter?" Su Huaiyuan asked angrily, "How could Shengsheng have a mother like you?"
Su Huaiyuan was still furious and shouted, "Someone, bring the whip!"
The guard handed over the whip with both hands without saying a word.
With a crisp "slap" sound, Su Huaiyuan stared at Wu Da Lian and said, "Since you dare to testify, you must follow my rules. Whether it is true or false, you will be whipped twenty times first. If you lie, you will be whipped thirty times."
"Whether or not you want to continue testifying is your choice."
He swung his hand again, and the whip brushed past Wu Da Lian's face. A gust of wind made his face hurt.
Yu Shengsheng looked at Ruan Jing standing beside her and Su Huaiyuan cracking the whip, and her heart was beating fast.
It would have been great if someone had believed in her and stood up for her like this.
Unfortunately, no matter how good it is now, it is too late.
Yu Shengsheng was about to speak, thinking that there was a way to find out whether what Wu Da Lian said was true or false.
Before he could say anything, Wu Da Lian fell to his knees with a thud.
"General, Master Su! Don't, don't hit me, I... I can't do anything about it."
Su Huaiyuan held the whip: "Tell the truth."
Wu Da Lian lowered his head, as if he was overwhelmed with shame, and mumbled incoherently.
Su Huaiyuan whipped his guards and said, "Twenty lashes!"
The personal guard waved his hand and walked over here.
Wu DaLian's face turned pale, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead: "Speak, I say, don't hit me."
He gritted his teeth and looked at Yu: "Sister Ruan, I'm sorry, my body can't stand the whip, I..."
"I can't do what I promised you, don't blame me."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Yu Shengsheng also clenched his hands unconsciously and glanced at Jin Baobao out of the corner of his eye.
Jin Baobao blinked: Hey, what's going on? This direction, what this old man said... are different from what the young lady told me.
