Chapter 261 The Regent's Beloved 5
The maidservant became more and more frightened as she thought about it. She couldn't help but glance at Cui Wanrong secretly, thinking about the feasibility of asking the lady to save her.
Cui Wanrong didn't notice her gaze. After looking at Su Li and making sure that she was okay, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Cui Wanrong didn't smile gently: "Ali, you didn't suffer any loss today, did you?"
Su Li raised his head proudly: "Of course not. Don't you see whose daughter I am? How could I be bullied? I even slapped Ye Qingcheng!"
The two people sitting upstairs had darkened expressions when they heard this. This evil girl had beaten up the young lady of the general's mansion and was quite proud of offending General Ye!
Cui Wanrong did not expose the fact that her daughter had been bullied frequently before, and was very satisfied that her daughter did not suffer any loss today.
So what if she's the daughter of the General's Mansion? If anyone dares to bully Cui Wanrong's daughter, she'll beat him up! Even if the Ye family comes knocking on her door, she's not afraid. She'll just flirt with them first. It's Ye Song's fault for not teaching his daughter well, so he deserves to be beaten!
Cui Wanrong was thinking bitterly about how that woman from the Ye family would embarrass her the next time they met, but she smiled gently and reached out to help Su Li tidy up the loose hair on his forehead.
The scene of loving mother and filial daughter made Mrs. Su's chrysanthemum face wrinkle.
Su Sheng coughed loudly as a reminder, which really attracted Cui Wanrong's attention.
Cui Wanrong's expression changed instantly, she withdrew the gentleness and kindness that belonged to Su Li, and said coldly: "Master is becoming more and more powerful now. Before I even stepped into the gate of Wutong Garden, I heard your roar that was like eating explosives. What? Do you want to bully my son while I'm away?"
Prime Minister Su's face flushed and purple, his eyes flickered with anger, but he tried to slow down his tone: "Madam, do you know what this evil girl did outside today?"
The Prime Minister's wife said nonchalantly, "Isn't it just your precious daughter who vomited blood? What does her vomiting blood have to do with my son? It's not like my son made her vomit blood!"
Su Li glanced at Cui Wanrong with sparkling eyes, then raised his head and agreed, "That's right, what does my sister-in-law's vomiting of blood have to do with me? Maybe she's just like her aunt who died young, born with a weak constitution and some unspeakable illness!"
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Su's expression became even uglier, and he looked at Su Li with cold eyes!
This little beast is worthy of being Cui Wanrong's daughter. She is just as sharp-tongued and vicious-hearted as ever. She even wants to give Wan'er a reputation of having a congenital hidden disease.
Old Madam Su also looked at Cui Wanrong with hatred. She was not grateful at all for the fact that Cui Wanrong came from a prominent family and had helped Su Sheng a lot in his career.
She hated her daughter-in-law the most. Relying on her prominent family background, she didn't take her mother-in-law seriously at all. She opposed her everywhere and made no one able to find any fault with her.
When she married into the Su family, she brought 108 loads of dowry, but they were reluctant to give any of it to her and Qing'er.
Fortunately, her Qing'er still called her sister-in-law. When Qing'er got married, she just asked her to give half of her dowry to Qing'er as a dowry, but she refused and made a big fuss, making her lose all her face and dignity!
When Old Madam Su thought about the grievances her family had to endure over the years, she wished that Prime Minister Su would divorce her right now!
But now it’s different…
Old Madam Su looked proudly at her son sitting next to her. Her Su family was no longer the Su family that needed Cui's help.
Her son is now the prime minister, second only to the emperor. He doesn't need to worry about offending the Cui family, nor does he need to flatter the Cui mother and daughter.
Moreover, she has an eldest granddaughter who is destined to be a phoenix. Now that their Prime Minister's Mansion has the regent as a backer, what does it matter if the Cui family is a prominent aristocratic family?
Even if her son divorces Cui now, she is not afraid that Cui's family will come to cause trouble!
Old Madam Su was very excited when she thought of a few months ago when a wandering monk came to her house to beg for alms and said that there was a young lady with the fate of a phoenix in their family.
Phoenix fate!
But only the queen is worthy of being called a phoenix. What does this mean?
This means that her Su family is about to have a queen!
The more Old Lady Su thought about it, the more proud she became. When she looked at Cui Wanrong, there was a hint of obvious disdain in her eyes.
So what if she is Cui’s legitimate daughter?
After marrying into the Su family for so many years, she only gave birth to a money-losing girl, a money-losing girl whose engagement was broken off by the Third Prince. If her son doesn't want her, she will only be criticized like her money-losing daughter!
The more Madam Su thought about it, the more confident she became. Her face, which was already mean and unkind, now looked even more mean and hateful.
"Cui, this is the daughter you raised? You've corrupted the good girl in my Prime Minister's Mansion!"
"Wan'er is her eldest sister. She was so angry that she vomited blood. Instead of saying that she was carefully taking care of her, she actually said that it had nothing to do with her?"
"There has never been such a heartless and ungrateful person in my Prime Minister's Mansion. If you don't know how to discipline her, I will do it. Otherwise, a woman with such a vicious mind like her will bring shame to my Prime Minister's Mansion if she goes out."
Cui Wanrong was furious at Madam Su's shameless words. How could her daughter be so heartless and disregard the feelings between siblings?
If her upbringing had not prohibited it, she really wanted to rush up and slap the old woman twice to wake her up.
When it comes to being ruthless, ungrateful, and vicious, who can compare to her and her son?
Seeing that his stepmother was so angry that she couldn't speak, Su Li secretly gave the old woman a bad luck talisman and a fart talisman, and also gave Su Sheng a bad luck talisman and a hair loss talisman who was standing next to him.
In the last world, she drew a lot of talismans to fill the space, and she was worried that she had no place to use them!
Su Li smiled and comforted her: "Don't be angry, mother. Grandma is just judging others by her own standards. We won't bother with her!"
Cui Wanrong nodded slightly and said sternly, "Su Sheng, I don't care who you and your mother want to curry favor with, but if you dare to use my daughter as a scapegoat, I will definitely not let you off easily!"
When Su Sheng's little thoughts were exposed, his face turned pale.
This is why he doesn't like Cui Wanrong. If she was as innocent as when they first met, he could still sympathize with her, but she is growing up too fast and is becoming more and more difficult to handle!
Girls from aristocratic families are indeed deep-minded, unlike my cousin. Although she is just a girl from a small family, she has a pure and kind heart!
Cui Wanrong ignored the gloomy and terrifying faces of Su Sheng and his mother, and directly took Su Li away from Wutong Garden, leaving the mother and son with their faces twisted and hideous with anger!
Cui Wanrong held Su Li's small hand and walked in front angrily.
Su Li followed her closely and looked up at her back, feeling mixed emotions.
She is a good mother who protects her children and loves them, but her judgment of men is really poor and she has ruined her own life!
