The return of her father Su Can gave her hope. If her father came forward, she might be able to find a husband. It didn't matter whether he married into her family or married out. She was not picky.
If worst comes to worst, she can wait until March next year and pick a husband from the list. She won’t be picky.
As long as she can get married, she can slowly plan for the future.
All the evidence and witnesses were ready. Su Can called all the members of the Li family, the elders of the Su family, and all the witnesses to gather together.
The Li family sat on one side and the Su family sat on the other.
Mrs. Su Li and her daughters Su Qinghui, Su Can, Su Qingran and Su Xun sat together.
Mr. and Mrs. Li were very happy because their son-in-law sent someone to pick them up. This had never happened before.
They also asked the couple to bring other elders of the Li family, such as the second uncle, the third uncle, the fourth aunt, and the sixth aunt, and quite a few of them came.
When I arrived and saw that the elders of the Su family were there, even the clan leader was there, I immediately felt something was wrong.
They didn't dare to ask, not knowing what their son-in-law was up to. The couple exchanged glances, said nothing, and sat quietly.
Seeing that everyone was present, Su Can remained silent and let the witness speak for himself.
The witnesses had already been interrogated using extreme means. At this moment, they were all terrified and rushed to kneel on the ground and began to confess all the evil deeds that Madam Li had done over the years.
"The lady used the money in the mansion to lend money at high interest rates and lost a full thirty thousand taels. Later, she sold the old lady's dowry utensils to make up for the loss."
Mother Li was Madam Li's confidant and knew a lot of things. She was captured by Su Can's people, and in order to protect her children and grandchildren, she dared not hide the truth.
"Xue Lian, the maid in the Madam's room, had an affair with the guards in the outer courtyard. After being discovered, she was held responsible. The Madam asked her to buy medicine for herself and always asked her to deliver it to the Madam's courtyard.
Xuelian was afraid that she would be silenced, so she packed up all the medicine residue and secretly put it here. She told the maid that the prescription was given by the lady, and the lady did not allow the second young lady to walk around in the old lady's yard.
The second young lady understands medical knowledge, and I was afraid that she would find something wrong with the medicine, so I bought the medicine from a pharmacy outside. "
From the moment Mother Li was brought in, Mrs. Su Li knew what she was going to face. As long as no lives were involved, everything would be fine.
She originally thought that all those who knew about the situation had been dealt with by her, but she didn't expect that Xuelian would trick her before she died and told Mother Li everything.
Mother Li had always been hers, why did she suddenly turn against her? There was only one reason, and that was Su Can's action.
Su Qinghui's maid Zijing failed to become Lin Hong's concubine, and was raped by Lin Hong for nothing. Later, she was beaten and scolded by Su Qinghui at will, and she had long been dissatisfied with her.
"The eldest lady was always arrogant. She killed three of the four maids who worked with me and threw them all into the mass grave.
One day, the eldest daughter bought dirty medicine, hoping to ruin the second daughter's innocence. Later, she said she wanted to taste it herself, and ordered the servant to prepare it for her.
She even made an appointment with Master Lin Hong without telling me. In order to find out the poison in her body, the lady begged Master Lin to give the eldest daughter to her... Later, the eldest daughter became pregnant and had a miscarriage, becoming a joke in the whole capital."
Su Qinghui was furious. This matter was a disgrace to her. It would have been fine if someone else had mentioned it, but her personal maid had also mentioned it, and described it in such detail, it was really embarrassing.
Damn the slave.
He stood up and walked over, then kicked Zijing in the heart, causing her face to turn pale instantly and she fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Su Xun, who was beside Su Can, was startled and hid behind Su Can, terrified.
This eldest sister is so scary. She always wants to kill people. If he stays alone in the mansion, will he still be able to survive?
Su Qingran sat upright, not moving at all. She had learned the rules from the nanny and knew what it was like to be the mistress of a house.
Besides, today's incident has nothing to do with her, she is just a spectator.
Su Can's face showed no expression of joy or anger. He listened to what others said, asked them to prove their claims to each other, and finally took out the letter left by his mother and handed it to the head of the Su family.
After reading it, the head of the Su family was very angry. He slapped the letter and scolded Li: "How dare you poison your mother-in-law, Li! What crime should you be punished for?"
Su Can took the letter, handed it to Mr. Li, and motioned for him to read it.
Master Li took it and read it, dumbfounded. He pointed at Li and cursed: "Evil creature! What do you want to do? You are so cruel that you killed the old lady of the Su family?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone from the Li family and the Su family knew about the evil deeds that Li had done. They were all shocked and stunned.
Especially the Su family, who pointed fingers at Li.
"He seems very polite and kind on weekdays, but it turns out that he is not a good person behind the scenes and is actually a devil."
"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. The old lady died unjustly. It's so pitiful that she was poisoned to death by her daughter-in-law."
"Li is really too much. She has money to lend money at high interest rates, but she doesn't help us. She is reluctant to pay for the clan school, and always says that no one in her family goes to the clan school."
Li fell to her knees with a plop, looked at Su Can and laughed wildly.
The situation was hopeless, she knew what the outcome would be, but she was unwilling to accept it.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! I did everything, so what? Su Can! You married me, why don't you treat me well? You don't let me have a legitimate son, is it wrong for me to kill your mother?"
Su Can sat at the top, saying nothing.
Let Li curse madly.
"Su Can! You are not a human, you are a devil. I have changed from a delicate little girl to a cruel person like today. Do you know what I have been through? Others have husbands who love them and children around them, but what do I have?
I begged you to give me a legitimate son, but you never agreed. You never came back year after year, making me a laughing stock in the capital. Why should I treat your mother well? "
“Bang!”
Mr. Li stepped forward and slapped Li in the face, hoping that she would stop talking. If she continued, how would she be able to meet Su Can and make friends with him in the future?
Su Qingran was about to marry into the Huguogong Mansion. The Huguogong was very popular now, and was a favorite of the emperor. If they had a good relationship, they could get a share of the spoils.
If the relationship is not good, everyone will just nod to each other when they meet, but if they become enemies, it is like having a knife hanging over their heads.
"Shut up!" Master Li was very disappointed. "If you were kind and generous, how could you end up like this?"
Su Can closed his eyes and spoke calmly: "This general wants to divorce his wife, or he will report her to the Jingzhao prefect and exchange his life for hers. There are two ways, choose one! Also, Su Qinghui will be exterminated from the family as well. There is no vicious woman in the Su family who would harm sisters."
The eldest daughter has been spoiled, and keeping her will only make people laugh. Otherwise, I should be cruel and give her to the Li family, so that out of sight, out of mind.
After hearing this, Su Qinghui suddenly fell to the ground and turned her head to look at Su Can with difficulty.
His lips moved several times, but no sound came out.
She was abandoned by the Su family.
Li's hair was disheveled, she cried and made a scene: "No, I don't want to choose any of them."
