Chapter 486: A country bumpkin is qualified to talk back to this young master?
Su Xingchen frowned and said, "Who are you calling a little beggar? Su Wancai is my grandfather, and we are not little beggars."
Su Huaiyu glared at the plainly dressed Su Xingchen siblings in front of him, his green bean-sized eyes filled with contempt: "A country bumpkin is worthy of talking back to this young master?"
"Throw them into the lotus pond!" Su Huaiyu raised his hand and said, "Let them know the rules of the Su Mansion!"
Four or five followers received the order and were about to step forward, rubbing their hands, but were stopped by the servant beside Su Xingchen.
"No way! The master just instructed us to treat the young master and young lady well!" The leading servant was so anxious that he kept wiping his sweat.
Su Huaiyu raised his head and laughed: "My grandfather loves me the most! I will take the responsibility if anything goes wrong!"
He pointed at Su Mingyue and said, "Throw that stinky girl in too. It would be best if they were drowned."
Seeing his followers approaching step by step, Su Xingchen suddenly took out a bottle from his sleeve.
The moment the powder touched their skin, everyone screamed and rolled on the ground.
Su Huaiyu rolled on the ground in a tingling rage, tearing his luxurious brocade gown into rips and causing a large red rash to appear on his plump white belly. "What the hell is this!"
Tears streamed down his face as he twisted into a ball on the ground: "Go call my mother!"
Madam Su rushed over, wrapped in a fragrant breeze. She was wearing a golden skirt. The moment she saw her son's miserable state, she was so angry that she saw stars in her eyes: "My dear! How did you become like this?"
She turned around and slapped Su Xingchen, saying:
"I don't know where this bastard came from!
Hand over the antidote immediately! Otherwise I will kill you."
Master Su and Madam Su also rushed over. Master Su saw Su Huaiyu's appearance and became anxious: "What on earth is going on?"
"Dad, it was this little bastard who sprinkled the powder on Huaiyu. Look how itchy Huaiyu is. You have to do something for us?" The eldest lady cried.
Master Su frowned and said:
"What the hell is going on? Su Xingchen, did you do this?
How come you caused such a big trouble right after coming back? He is your eldest cousin..."
Su Mingyuan quickly said, "Dad, leave this matter to me! Hurry up and find a doctor to check on the young master..."
When the old doctor stepped over the threshold carrying the medicine box, Su Huaiyu was curled up on the carved couch wrapped in a thin blanket.
His originally fair skin was covered with scratches, and the golden crown was crookedly on his head, making him look extremely disheveled.
Madam Su's hand, clutching the handkerchief, was throbbing with veins. Seeing the doctor come in, she immediately rushed forward and grabbed his sleeve, "Hurry and show it to my son! If there's a scar left, I'll skin you alive!"
The old doctor stared at the rash carefully, twirling his beard and pondering for a moment: "Don't worry, Madam, it's just ordinary itching powder. Wash it off with clean water and apply detoxifying ointment for three days, and it will be healed."
Su Huaiyu suddenly flew into a rage, grabbed the white jade paperweight beside his pillow and slammed it at Su Xingchen: "Little bastard! How dare you plot against me!"
The paperweight flew past Su Xingchen's ear, leaving tiny cracks on the blue bricks.
Madam Su sneered and raised the boy's jaw with her scarlet nails:
"Did you hear that? It's just some cheap tricks. Now come over here and kowtow to my son and apologize!"
Su Huaiyu behind her yelled strangely, gesturing with his fat hands: "Make him strip naked and crawl around the yard ten times! Make him my dog and let me ride him every day."
Su Wancai walked in and said, "Have you had enough of this? Huaiyu, who allowed you to act wild in this mansion?"
Su Huaiyu wanted to argue, but was pushed back onto the couch by Madam Su.
She immediately put on a look of grievance and choked up, "Dad, you have to make the decision for us mother and son..."
Su Wancai looked at the brother and sister and said, "You were indeed wrong in what happened today. Therefore, I will punish you by making you kneel in the ancestral hall now! Kneel for two hours before getting up again."
Su Xingchen raised his head and said, "Grandpa, this matter..."
"Okay, take them both away now..."
Two servants held Su Xingchen and Su Mingyue's arms and walked towards the ancestral hall along the nine-curve corridor.
"Master, please stop talking." The gray-robed servant beside him lowered his voice, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. "Master hates people making excuses the most. Kneel for two full hours. Once your anger subsides, everything will be fine."
The little palace maid beside Su Mingyue quickly agreed. She secretly stuffed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake into Su Mingyue's mouth and said, "Fill your stomach first, we'll be fine after enduring it..."
The vermilion lacquered door of the ancestral hall creaked open, and a scent of aged sandalwood mixed with a chill blew in my face.
The gilded plaque "Su Family Ancestral Hall" glowed dimly in the candlelight, and the altar was filled with celadon incense burners and faded family tree.
Su Mingyue subconsciously shrank behind her brother, but saw that the cushion in front of the altar was already covered with a thin layer of dust.
The two servants beside Master Su forced them to kneel on the ground and said, "Reflect on yourselves here! If you want to go against our young master, you should also consider your own status."
After they left, Su Mingyue cried aggrievedly: "Brother, I want to go find the young lady, wuwuwu... Why do they treat us like this? There is no good person in this Su family."
Su Xingchen felt a lump in his throat. This had also happened to Gu Sinian, but the result was completely the opposite.
"Okay, since the Su family treated us like this, let's go back and find the young lady."
Just then, Naitang made a few "naitang" sounds, and the brother and sister immediately became happy. Su Mingyue looked at it and said, "Naitang, did you bring us food? I'm so hungry!"
Then Lin Wanwan walked in with a dozen people and said, "Hey! You guys are in such a bad situation. You broke into the ancestral hall on your first day back..."
Su Mingyue rushed over and said, "Wuwuwu...Miss, I want to go home. The Su Mansion is not fun at all."
Lin Wanwan looked at Su Xingchen and said, "Su Xingchen, what do you think?"
Su Xingchen looked at her and said, "Miss, if it were you, what would you do?"
Lin Wanwan said while counting on her fingers:
"If you ask me, you should just stay in the Su family peacefully.
These people are good at martial arts and are trustworthy.
You can trust me, I will protect you at the critical moment."
Lin Wanwan picked four boys and four girls. Su Xingchen nodded and knelt down on the ground, saying, "I will never forget your kindness, Miss."
Lin Wanwan looked at him and said:
"Alright, hurry up and get up! The Su family is unreliable. The only ones you can rely on are yourselves.
But you can also learn a lot here, learn more, listen more, and watch more. Your uncle is pretty good."
Lin Wanwan took out a few bottles of medicine powder and said:
"These medicinal powders can save lives in critical moments, and you should also keep these gold and silver with you.
You will need money in the Su family anyway, so don't be reluctant to spend it, as it was originally the Su family's money..."
Su Xingchen was stunned, and Lin Wanwan didn't explain much. This money was just moved by Naitang from the eldest lady of the Su family.
This is just a small part. The eldest lady of the Su family is indeed very rich.
