"From today on, she is our Su family's adopted daughter, and her name is Su Ningwan."
As soon as Su Liming finished speaking, the crowd began to discuss again.
Qiuyue was also slightly stunned, then she reacted.
Ning Wan, this name seems to be the name of a princess of the previous dynasty.
Did they give herself this name to tell herself that from now on she would be the princess of the Su family?
Even Su Zi's face showed some uneasiness.
What a joke! If this name is used by someone with ulterior motives, the Su family will probably be gone.
Su Zi stood up and was about to say something, but saw Su Liming's determined expression and a meaningful look in his eyes.
Seeing that Mrs. Su, who had been cautious and vigilant beside him, did not try to stop him at all, he felt a little relieved and sat down again.
"I know the character 'Su', but the two characters behind it, could it be..."
Su Liming seemed to be oblivious to the crowd's discussions. He continued, disregarding the others' concerns, "I gave her this name because she's an orphan and hasn't enjoyed much happiness. So I gave her this name to symbolize peace and happiness..."
What the hell is this peaceful and happy life? Are you sure you're not seeking death?
The discussion among the crowd gradually grew louder.
Everyone in the capital knew that the princess of the previous dynasty was named Princess Ning Wan. Although they didn't know whether the Su family was stupid enough to choose two names with the same character, it was not acceptable if they were just homophones.
"I have some medicine stewing on the stove at home. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to eat this meal, so I'll leave first." What kind of stew? This meal is not for them to eat. It's obvious that he wants to stew them all in one pot.
If the people above knew about this, the emperor would be furious and millions of people would die.
If the new emperor is in a good mood, he may not vent his anger on them, but what if he is in a bad mood?
It’s better not to eat this meal!
"Yes, yes, I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me. I still have several children's homework that I haven't supervised. It's better not to waste time here." The scholar from before stood up again and retreated without hesitation.
The half ruler in one hand tapped the palm of the other hand, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
The name of the royal family of the previous dynasty is not something they can use as they please. If they are not careful, those who are here to join in the fun will also be implicated.
"Yeah, look at my memory. The child hasn't finished his homework yet. I'd better not join in the fun."
"Yeah, I suddenly remembered that my wife was sick a few days ago and I haven't bought medicine yet." Another person muttered an outrageous excuse.
"Hey, you've been single for years. When did you get married without telling us? Why haven't you invited us to your wedding?"
"Go away, go away. I don't have the chance to talk to you about this. My wife is still at home waiting for me to save her."
After his lie was exposed, the man became angry, but he still used this excuse to run away.
"I have something going on at home, so I won't delay any longer. You all should eat, drink and have fun!"
Seeing everyone about to leave, Su Liming sneered, "No matter how busy you are, I believe you still have time to eat, right?"
The reason why Su Liming went to so much trouble to hold this banquet was to carry out Shen Jingyi's sacred will, so it was naturally impossible for him to let these people leave.
These words made those who wanted to leave stop, but their foreheads were already covered with cold sweat.
Although I knew that this banquet was not that simple, I did not expect that the Su family would be so eager to seek death!
"Sir, something really happened at home..."
"Don't say any more."
Su Liming gave the butler a look as he spoke.
The housekeeper reacted quickly, "We're going to take up some of your time today, but don't worry, our Su family will definitely treat you all with delicious food and drinks."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of servants came in front of the group of people, holding long sticks in their hands, as if they were going to use violence if the group did not cooperate.
Everyone looked at each other and sighed again.
"Why are you sighing? Today is a big day for our Su family. Are you trying to bring bad luck upon us?"
The people, who didn't want to eat in the first place, felt a pang in their hearts and forced themselves to smile.
"No, no, we are here to congratulate the Minister."
"Yes, yes." After the leader finished speaking, the people behind him also echoed.
Su Liming looked at these people who were afraid of his power and fawning over him, and just chuckled sarcastically. On such a happy day, he had never thought of embarrassing these people.
Qiuyue looked embarrassed. It seemed that this name was not very popular among people.
Yes, considering the character of the princess of the previous dynasty, this name can indeed make people stay away from her.
"Father, why don't you change your name? I don't want to bring trouble to our Su family because of me."
Qiuyue suddenly stood up. She originally thought that this recognition of relatives was just a dream, but from the attitude of the Su family, she could see that something was wrong.
Su Liming and Madam Su seemed to dislike her, but they always treated her with a hint of respect, as if they were afraid of offending her.
But she was just an ordinary peasant's daughter and had no status at all.
After her only mother died, she could only go to some teahouses to watch plays to make a living, but she didn't expect to be found by Li Zhang.
After finally escaping, he met another cruel person who was not even willing to help him.
No matter why the Su family treated me like this, I still have to be cautious, otherwise it would be bad to lose the big picture for the small one.
