Chapter 97 Seeking Justice
Su Linlin met Su Wenbin's horrified eyes and her heart trembled. Before she could explain, she heard his scolding voice.
"Who allowed you to do this?" His voice was cold, with a cold light in his eyes.
Hearing this, Su Linlin panicked and responded with lies. "Cousin, don't you believe me? It was this bitch who hurt me, so I want to deal with her!"
Chen Ya narrowed her eyebrows, a cold light flashed in her eyes, she took a step forward and glared at her.
"You don't dare to admit what you did? Who dares to bully you?" She spoke in a cold tone.
Su Linlin felt inexplicably weak in her heart, and her cheeks ached again. She covered her face and loudly retorted, "It's not your turn to talk about my affairs!"
She glared at Chen Ya with a fierce look on her face, turned around and left angrily, with the maids and guards following behind her, a huge group of people.
Feng Lan looked at San Ya's face with heartache, walked forward to touch her, and frowned slightly.
"You kid, you don't even know how to hide. You just stand there and get beaten. Look at how you got beaten. It hurts my heart to see you."
San Ya pulled the injured corner of her mouth and couldn't help but hiss. She raised her hands to cover her face and mumbled in response.
"Who knew she would be so unreasonable and violent, smashing things up without a care in the world and leaving our house in such a mess?"
The things in the store are all in pieces. It's depressing to see such a good store become like this.
Chen Ya's face became even gloomier. She stood silently by without saying a word and was silently angry. Su Wenbin felt guilty and couldn't help but walk forward and say something.
"It's indeed my cousin's fault. I'll make sure she comes to my house to apologize someday."
San Ya raised her head, narrowed her eyes slightly, with a cold light in her eyes, and asked directly.
"Is this person your cousin?"
She immediately put her hands on her waist, grabbed the stone, pointed it at his face, and then pointed it at her own face.
"This woman kept hitting me and the stone, and she also smashed the store into pieces. What on earth did she want to do?"
She was well-known for her character that would never allow herself to suffer any loss. Although her attitude was tough, her tone was very cold.
When Feng Lan heard this, she silently took a step forward, held San Ya's wrist, and spoke softly.
"This matter has nothing to do with Su Wenbin. It's all Su Linlin's fault for being so unreasonable."
"I will definitely make Su Linlin apologize for this matter. As for compensation, I will definitely make it up to you. Don't worry." Su Wenbin apologized sincerely.
Feng Lan was satisfied in her heart, but she did not show it on the surface. She just nodded silently and said softly.
"Okay, then I won't ask about this matter."
…
Su Linlin ran all the way back to the house crying. She lay on the table and cried, sobbing.
Mr. Su, who had just received the news, hurried over to check. Before he went in, he heard crying and shouting from inside.
"What happened to my precious daughter? How much injustice has she suffered?"
Hearing this, Su Linlin's body trembled slightly. When she looked up, her face was full of tears.
"Dad, now you're here, you have to make the decision for me."
When Mr. Su Er married the county magistrate's sister Su Su, it was a grand ceremony. Especially now that Mrs. Su is living a comfortable life, he naturally holds his daughter in the palm of his hand.
"Talk to dad and tell him what happened. Dad will take care of it for you." Su Wenbin hurried over to ask.
Su Linlin showed half of her beaten face, with five obvious slap marks on her fair face, which was red, swollen and ugly.
"What's going on? I heard crying before I even came in." Su Su walked in silently, frowning slightly.
Hearing this, Su Linlin looked up at Su Su, feeling even more aggrieved, and threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.
The maid stood by, with her head slightly lowered, a look of indignation on her face, and muttered to herself.
"Madam, Master, you don't know that Young Master Su's wife, who wasn't even married yet, beat the young lady with her own hands. Everyone was there at the time. This is a disregard for the young lady and the master's reputation."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them began to change subtly, and Master Su's expression became even gloomier.
"This is outrageous! They simply don't take me seriously!" He roared and slammed the table.
Su Linlin raised her head slightly, her tone tearful, and she raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face.
"My cousin actually disregarded my dignity for a stranger and let that stranger beat me. When have I ever suffered such an injustice since I was a child?"
Although she was usually willful and capricious, she had never done anything out of line. Being pampered in the palm of her hand, she was naturally more spoiled than others.
Su Su's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川) and a hint of faint light flashed across her face. She then spoke quickly.
"This is Mother's decision. Mother will definitely seek justice for you."
She did what she said and brought them to the county magistrate's mansion that night. As soon as they walked in, they felt that the atmosphere around them was a little wrong.
When Mrs. Su heard the noise, she hurried out, her lips slightly curled up and her face was full of a bright smile.
"Do you have something to say so late at night?"
Hearing this, Su Linlin stood by with her head lowered and said nothing, pretending to look pitiful.
"Sister-in-law, how dare you say that? My child was beaten in public. Not only has his reputation been ruined, but our face has been ruined too!" Su Su stood by and sneered.
She was adopted since she was a child. For various reasons, she was never treated harshly by her parents since she was a child. Her food, clothing and other expenses were all according to the share of the eldest daughter.
The county magistrate came out of the study upon hearing the noise. His expression was gloomy. He glanced at me briefly, his brows furrowed in a frown.
"What exactly is going on?"
They were all confused and still didn't understand what was going on. Su Wenbin came back from outside and just heard the noise.
"What are you doing here?" His voice was low and questioning.
Su Linlin seemed even more aggrieved and frightened. She walked silently behind Su Su, as if wanting to hide.
Seeing this, Su Su felt even more distressed. She pulled her hand behind her and hid behind her, then yelled angrily.
"How dare you say that? Tell me everything that happened today. You've ruined Linlin's reputation!"
The woman was beaten in public and has a bad temper. Once this reputation gets out, who would dare to marry her?
Su Wenbin's gentle eyes suddenly turned cold, and he sneered with the corners of his mouth.
"Why don't you ask your good daughter what she did? She smashed someone's shop in public and even dared to hit him. This is your good daughter!"
Mrs. Su was standing nearby. When she heard this, she probably understood what it meant, and a hint of hostility emanated from her.
