Chapter 1034: Questioning
At this time, Su San looked at the old man of the Su family, sneered, and said, "Without the rural peasants farming, I wonder how the old man of the Su family eats to survive? Could it be that he eats directly from the reincarnation of grains?"
The people watching the excitement around: "..."
I don’t quite understand what Su Laosan meant?
What is the cycle of grains?
The old man of the Su family was also stunned for a moment.
Then, he understood and almost fainted from anger.
"Brother, what is the reincarnation of grains?" Someone asked the person next to him with a curious look on his face.
The people around him were also confused.
"I don't know either."
After saying that, he asked the people around him.
"Which brother knows?"
Someone pondered and said, "I only know that there are rice, wheat, and millet among the five grains... Could it be that these grains are reincarnated things, that people eat these things and then poop them out..."
The man felt a little sick before he finished speaking.
Someone nearby immediately shouted, "I understand! The reincarnation of the five grains is the poop produced by the reincarnation of the five grains in the human stomach..."
"Brother, stop it, it's disgusting." someone shouted.
"That's right! It's so disgusting!" someone next to him echoed.
Lin Enyi stood in the crowd, as if suddenly realizing something, and deliberately said loudly, "So, this old man from the Su family looks down on the country folk because they don't eat grains, but only things that are reincarnated from grains!"
As soon as Lin Enyi finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter.
Naturally, the ones who laughed the loudest were the ones who were most active in throwing rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs.
When the old man of the Su family heard people's laughter, he was so angry that his vision went dark.
"How dare you! How dare you insult me so wantonly!" The old man of the Su family's heartbeat quickened, his face livid. "Someone, come! Take him down!"
As the old man of the Su family spoke, he pointed at Su Lao San.
Tang Bao had already supported Mrs. Su and stood beside Old Man Su. Upon hearing this, she immediately said in a cold voice: "Who dares!"
The guards of the Princess's Mansion immediately put their hands on the hilts of their swords and stood by Su Lao San's side.
Su San looked at the old man of the Su family with a look of sarcasm on his face and said, "I'm just telling the truth. Why is Old Master Su so angry and embarrassed, as if his thoughts have been exposed? Are you trying to bully me and kill me to silence me?"
When Su Laosan said this, his voice became more contemptuous.
"It seems that daring to do something but not taking responsibility, and refusing to admit it, is the tradition of your century-old family."
"No wonder Su Yurui lost the bet but wanted to shirk his responsibility. It turns out that when the top beam is crooked, the bottom beams will be crooked!"
After Su Laosan finished speaking, an expression of "I see" appeared on his face.
Tang Bao immediately gave a thumbs up to her third brother in her heart.
Sure enough, the third brother speaks just like the youngest brother!
Specially designed to touch people's hearts!
The old man of the Su family was so ashamed and angry that he almost vomited blood.
"How dare you! My Su family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and we have many talented individuals. Our collection of books is the largest in the world! Emperors of all dynasties have praised our Su family highly! How dare you, a mere countryman, humiliate our Su family like this? You are truly audacious!"
When the old man of the Su family mentioned his past glory, his tone was full of pride.
Tang Bao looked at the old man of the Su family. He felt that the old man was trying to cover up his mistake and was making a last-ditch effort.
"The old man has always been guarding the glory of his ancestors. He deceives himself and others, and no one can do anything about it." Tang Bao shook his head and said, "As for whether my third brother was bold or not for speaking a few truths, the old man will not bother to worry about it."
When Tang Bao said this, her tone changed.
He added, "However, I would like to ask Old Master, the Su family has always prided itself on being a family of poetry and literature. How many Juren (literati) have we had over the years? How many Xiucai (scholars)?"
"Oh, by the way, let's not talk about the Jinshi degree. It seems that no one has passed the Jinshi degree since the fifth year of Tianxi."
After Tang Bao finished speaking, she blinked her big innocent eyes and looked at the old man of the Su family with a look of curiosity.
It’s as if to say, I didn’t mean to ask, I just asked.
The old man of the Su family: "..."
Speechless.
Moreover, under Tang Bao's pure gaze, her face turned red.
Tang Bao's words were like a slap in the face.
Tang Bao felt that it was not enough and that she should be slapped a few more times.
After all, if you want to step on someone, you have to do it thoroughly and reveal all the affairs of the Su family.
Then, he added: "Oh, there is one more thing. Let's make it clear first. Those people that your Su family found along the way from all over Dayan cannot be counted."
"After all, those people weren't originally descendants of your Su family, weren't they?"
"What's more, some of them may not even have the surname Su. They just heard the benefits promised by your Su family, so they forgot their ancestors and changed their surnames halfway."
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, the crowd was in an uproar.
Many people don’t know that the Su family has done such things.
After all, this is not a glorious thing, so the Su family will naturally not publicize it everywhere.
"Oh my God! The Su family actually did such a thing?"
"So, those former second-place and third-place winners of the Su family, couldn't they all be descendants of other families, and were pulled over by the Su family halfway through their careers?"
"Maybe it's true..."
"I'm afraid there's something fishy about the Su family's reputation for passing down poetry and literature..."
For a moment, all kinds of suspicious eyes were cast at the old man of the Su family.
The old man of the Su family never expected that things would develop to this point.
Doesn’t this mean that even the glory of our ancestors is being questioned?
The old man of the Su family was angry and anxious.
If this matter is not handled properly, the Su family’s reputation of hundreds of years will be ruined.
The head of the Su family was also unable to stand.
This is not just a matter of having your door plaque smashed.
If you are not careful, even your ancestors will be brought to shame.
"That's a bunch of nonsense!" the old man of the Su family shouted angrily, "You are so young, yet you are so malicious and want to destroy the century-old reputation of our Su family. What are your intentions?!"
"Why is Old Master Su so angry?" Tang Bao said crisply, "We are talking nonsense. Just call out the person from your Su family who is participating in this competition and let everyone recognize him."
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly sneered and said, "The Su family is already yesterday's news! They brag all day long about being the epitome of scholars and a family of learning, but don't they know that they are just squandering the reputation left by their ancestors?"
As soon as this person finished speaking, the crowd immediately started to talk.
"If you ask me, if the Su family is still the Su family of the past, they won't be blocked at the gate and have plaques smashed."
"I've lost the plaques left by my ancestors. I don't know where I got the nerve to mention the reputation of my ancestors again."
"That's right! Can you be worthy of your ancestors?"
"Are you really not afraid of the old ancestor and opening the coffin lid?"
"Descendants actually dare to bet on the plaque left by our ancestors. I'm afraid only the Su family, who pride themselves on passing down poetry and literature, can be so capable!"
"That's right, it really is worthy of the Su family, the descendants are highly educated and courageous!"
“…”
For a while, people were talking about it, and their words were full of ridicule towards the Su family.
