Chapter 1979: Princess Yunshuang reveals the truth
Su Liusao was ashamed and fell to her knees.
"Dad, Mom, I was just talking nonsense back then. Sixth Master never did that..."
Mrs. Su Liu's face flushed red, and she became more and more ashamed as she spoke, and her voice became lower and lower.
However, I finally got the words out that were weighing on my heart.
For a moment, I felt relieved.
She had no complaints whether the Su family wanted to beat her, punish her, or drive her away.
By the way, Princess Yunshuang had done only this one bad thing in her life.
However, she does not regret it.
If not for this, she would not have been able to stay in the Su family with a legitimate reason, she would not have been able to feel the warmth and comfort of the Su family, and she would not have had a simple and filial son like Siwa.
She has been very happy in the past few years since she came to the Su family.
After Su Liusao finished speaking, she looked as if she was waiting to die, waiting for the Su family to judge her.
However--
No one in the Su family believed her at all.
"Xiao Liu, you've been in the Su family for a few years now, you should know our family rules!" Old Man Su said seriously, "This wicked boy made a mistake, and he deserves to be beaten to death."
So, you can't take the responsibility on yourself just to let him escape the blame.
Old Man Su didn't say this out loud, but his expression made it clear.
However, when facing his daughter-in-law, Old Man Su suppressed his anger and spoke in a much softer voice.
Old Madam Su also said, "Xiao Liu's family, you don't have to absolve Xiao Liu of his guilt. He deserves the punishment."
"Yes, Sixth Sister-in-law, you don't have to defend Xiaoliu..."
"Sixth brother's wife, what kind of character you have? Doesn't our whole family know it? You can't possibly do something like framing Sixth Brother..."
"That's right, Sixth Brother's wife, you are a female general, and the only female marquis in Great Yan. If you say that you were the one who made up nonsense and framed Sixth Brother, we don't believe it..."
The brothers and sisters-in-law of the Su family spoke up one after another, and all of them believed in the character of Su Liusao.
Mrs. Su Liu: "..."
Is there a crack in the ground?
Let her get in!
She really felt unworthy of the Su family's trust!
Mrs. Su Liu was grateful for the Su family's trust, but she also felt even more ashamed.
Su Xiaoliu: “…”
My tooth hurts a little.
Dad, Mom, Brother, and Sisters-in-law, do you really believe that I am someone who slanders innocent people?
You just don’t believe in me, your biological son and brother, right?
Su Xiaoliu pressed his tongue against his cheek, and there was some interest in his eyes when he looked at Su Liusao.
My wife is not an ordinary person.
Well, he admitted that he had already witnessed the complexity of his wife on the battlefield.
At this time, only Tang Bao did not speak. Instead, she looked at her sixth brother and then at her sixth sister-in-law, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
Although Sixth Brother was beaten, the self-torture tactic was still very useful.
Look, Sixth Sister-in-law has told the truth.
Since Sixth Brother protects Sixth Sister-in-law so much, I don’t believe that Sixth Sister-in-law won’t be touched!
"Dad, Mom, I'm telling the truth." Su Liusao blushed and said anxiously, "Sixth Master doesn't even know me, and I don't know Sixth Master either. I just felt disheartened after leaving the palace and wanted to find a place to retire and live in seclusion. I saw the beautiful scenery of Daliushu Village and wanted to stay... I just happened to encounter Sixth Master's funeral, so I made up all that nonsense just to stay..."
Mrs. Su Liu expressed her mental state at the time and the thoughts that came to her mind.
Everyone in the Su family: "..."
Suddenly there was silence.
Mrs. Su Liu didn't look like she was lying.
Moreover, everyone also thought of the substitute bride incident at the Xiaoyao Palace.
Princess Yunshuang is the legitimate daughter of the royal family, but she ended up being schemed against by her stepmother and betrayed by her fiancé. It is understandable that she was so disheartened that she didn't want to go back.
"Ahem! Xiaoliu, what do you say?" Old man Su coughed twice and asked with a stern face.
The eyes of everyone in the Su family also fell on Su Xiaoliu.
Although Su Liusao's words made their three views explode.
But, we still have to listen to what Su Xiaoliu has to say, right?
"Dad, what happened back then was indeed my fault." Su Xiaoliu said in a strong voice.
Mrs. Su Liu: "..."
"You're crazy!" Mrs. Su Liu shouted in disbelief.
She has already told the truth, why is this man still trying to put the blame on herself?
Don’t you think it smells bad?
Su Xiaoliu looked at Su Liusao and said seriously, "Wife, I know you feel sorry for me, but a real man should take responsibility for his actions. I made a mistake and I should be punished. Even if I am beaten to death by my father, I am willing to do it!"
Su Xiaoliu deliberately emphasized the word "willingly".
Mrs. Su Liu: "..."
I don’t know why, but my heart started beating wildly again.
Shy, embarrassed, flustered, but more importantly, moved.
This man was willing to hide the truth for her and take the blame for her mistakes!
"Since you say that, just wait for Dad to beat you to death!" Mrs. Su Liu glared at Su Xiaoliu and said angrily, "Anyway, if you get beaten to death, don't come looking for me..."
"That won't do!" Su Xiaoliu shook his head and said seriously, "If I become a ghost, I will naturally come back to find you, my wife."
Su Xiaoliu took it for granted.
Mrs. Su Liu: "..."
My heart beat faster.
The dead man must have done it on purpose!
"Shut up! You're talking nonsense..."
Mrs. Su Liu was so angry that she wanted to cover Su Xiaoliu's mouth.
However, as soon as his hand touched Su Xiaoliu's lips, he quickly retracted it as if he had been burned.
Su Xiaoliu: “…”
The soft touch on the lips was fleeting, but it made the tips of Su Xiaoliu's ears suddenly turn red.
"Okay, I'll shut up. If my wife doesn't allow me to, then I won't say anything." Su Xiaoliu followed her advice and looked like a good and obedient man.
Everyone in the Su family: "..."
Are these two flirting?
Old Man Su and Old Lady Su looked at each other.
It seems that Xiaoliu and his wife have a good relationship.
Su Xiaoliu looked at Old Man Su.
"Dad, my son has done something wrong, please punish him!"
Su Xiaoliu looked like he was sincerely admitting his mistake and willing to accept the punishment.
Old Man Su: “…”
As a last resort, he raised the fire poker in his hand again.
But, some of them can’t be fought anymore.
Xiaoliu is his son, how could he not know his temperament and character?
Although the younger son took the blame verbally, Old Man Su didn't quite believe it in his heart.
It was fine before, but since the youngest son is dead and there is no evidence, I can just accept whatever my daughter-in-law says.
Besides, there is no girl in the world who would be willing to risk her reputation and spend her whole life slandering Su Xiaoliu, right?
Even if Old Man Su didn't believe that his youngest son would do such a stupid thing, he couldn't help but believe it in the face of Su Liusao's promise.
It's different now.
With his youngest son kneeling in front of him alive and his daughter-in-law overturning her previous statement, Old Man Su subconsciously believed in his youngest son's innocence.
However, this matter must be judged and someone must be punished.
No matter what the truth is, since the younger son has admitted it, we have to continue beating him, right?
Not only Old Man Su thought so, but everyone in the Su family thought so.
At this point, the truth of the matter is no longer important, and no one in the Su family wants to ask.
Whether true or false, it’s just the couple’s business.
Anyway, just admit your guilt and accept the punishment!
Moreover, as a man, it is only right for Su Xiaoliu to take the blame for his wife.
