Chapter 107: Chapter 107 Joke
The crowd of onlookers in the Su Family courtyard grew larger and larger, all there to say how shameless Su Xiaofu was, and besides them, many people in the courtyard spoke ill of Fan Wenxuan as well.
Watching a flustered and mortified Su Xiaofu, Su Yunjin smiled and said, “If you want to continue making a scene, then go ahead, make a scene. It would be best if you drew the whole village to see how you’ve seduced men, how you hooked up with Fan Wenxuan.”
“You—!” Su Xiaofu was so infuriated by Su Yunjin that she couldn’t take it, but she knew that what Su Yunjin had said was true. If she continued to make a scene, she would only embarrass herself further. Despite her unwillingness, Su Xiaofu stomped her foot, clenched her teeth, and went back to her room to hide.
Left behind, the parents of Su Xiaofu and Mrs. Tao, seeing so many spectators outside the courtyard and hearing their comments, also knew that continuing the quarrel would only work against them. After Su Xiaofu left, Mrs. Tao and Su Xiaofu’s parents also left with darkened expressions.
With Su Xiaofu and her crew gone, there was no more spectacle to watch, and the onlookers dispersed from the Su Family’s courtyard.
Back in their own house, Su Yunjin’s father, Su Zhongshi, asked her as soon as they returned, “Yunjin, tell me the truth, was it you who slapped your grandma’s face today?”
“Indeed, Father, the slap on Grandma’s face was mine.” Now in the presence of her own parents, Su Yunjin no longer denied the matter; she had indeed slapped Mrs. Tao’s face, and there was nothing to deny.
Su Zhongshi had guessed that the slap on Mrs. Tao’s face was probably delivered by his daughter, so he was not too surprised when Su Yunjin admitted it.
“Father, even if the slap on the Grandma’s face was indeed from Xiaofu, so what? She deserved it.” Su Ningxiu grew indignant thinking about Mrs. Tao’s attempt to sell her to the nearly sixty-year-old Old Master Huang.
Su Zhongshi knew Mrs. Tao was in the wrong, but after all, Mrs. Tao was still the grandmother of Su Yunjin and Su Ningxiu, even if she was their step-grandmother, she was an elder. How could Yunjin strike her?
Of course, Su Yunjin could see what her father was thinking, and thus she said, “Father, do you think I shouldn’t have hit Step-grandma?”
Su Zhongshi remained silent!
Su Yunjin continued, “Father, I only slapped her twice, which is nothing compared to her trying to sell my sister to Old Master Huang. Moreover, she bruised my sister and Xiaobao all over by tying them up in the firewood room, and didn’t even give them food. Mrs. Tao is so cruel, my slapping her twice was actually letting her off lightly, wasn’t it?”
“That’s right, you did well, Yunjin, you did well! Mother agrees with you hitting Mrs. Tao.” Previously, Mrs. Shen had been too meek and easily bullied, but after her two daughters were consecutively sold off by Mrs. Tao, Mrs. Shen began to realize she had made mistakes. Today, if it weren’t for her daughter Su Yunjin, her daughter Su Ningxiu could have really been sold to that sixty-year-old Old Master Huang.
Su Ningxiu was only eighteen!
How could she be sold to Old Master Huang?
When it came to the matter of his daughter being sold, Su Zhongshi clenched his fists and angrily said to Su Yunjin, “Yunjin, well done, she deserved it!”
She had thought that her parents’ deeply ingrained mentality of being oppressed by Mrs. Tao would slowly change. Unexpectedly, her mother had changed quite quickly.
Hearing her mother Mrs. Shen’s words, Su Yunjin smiled and said, “Mother, that’s how you should be. As long as you and Father do this in the future, Mrs. Tao would never dare to bully you again.”
