Chapter 5: Unexpected Sideways

Soho withdrew his hand abruptly, flicked his wrist and took two steps back, "If I make a fool of myself, you won't be able to escape." ”

Su Nian paused in his footsteps and looked at her in disbelief.

This lowly woman who looked stupid could actually detect her thoughts.

Su Ho didn't care about her, stepped forward and walked a few steps quickly to open the distance, shrinking behind Su Qing to reduce the sense of presence as much as possible.

The group came to the Water Pavilion Pavilion, and several maidservants served tea and snacks with their hands and feet.

Soho looked left and right, and just wanted to go around to the small stool behind the Lord of Yunlang, when he heard a scream sounding beside him, "Soho, what are you going to do?!" ”

The next moment, the maidservant swooped forward with the tea tray and slammed it at the county lord's feet.

The teacup shattered, and the hot water splashed under the county lord's flowery skirt.

Su Qing hurriedly got up and ordered: "Hurry up and get a handkerchief!" ”

When everyone was in a hurry, Su Nian grabbed Soho's arm, and his face was full of disapproving accusations: "How can you be so rude!" Even if you don't like others to mention that your biological mother is a female branch of the Qinglou, but the county lord Jin Gui's body, you can't help but retaliate wantonly, you are really too disagreeable! ”

As soon as the words fell, not only did Soho become the culprit, but also explained the reason to everyone, and there was no room for argumentation.

"Presumptuous! You're damned! ”

The county lord of Yunlang couldn't be agitated, and slapped the table and stepped forward.

Even if Su Qing's temperament was steady, he was a little at a loss at the moment, and whispered behind him: "County Lord, County Lord is angry......

"Anger? This Soho followed her mother's wild nature, anyone dared to hook up and provoke, and now she is waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on the county lord, why should the county lord be angry! Big sister, don't you understand the truth of right and wrong? ”

Su Nian didn't think it was a big deal, and he said that the lord of Yunlang County was furious, and he raised his hand to slap Su He a few times.

"Ahh The county lord's clothes ......" A servant girl exclaimed in surprise, and suddenly covered her mouth and did not dare to speak.

Su Ho's eyebrows jumped slightly, and he was stunned when he lowered his head.

Two long gold threads were hooked by porcelain tiles on the ground, and the eight-petal peony outlined at the bottom of the skirt was missing two petals, which looked abrupt and funny.

The county lord's face was completely dark, and she gritted her teeth and said: "This is the county lord's favorite finch peony skirt, which is specially worn today to see my sister-in-law!" Cheap hooves, I'll break you to pieces! ”

……

Naturally, Soho was not crushed.

This incident alarmed the old lady of Ronghuatang, and summoned everyone present to hear it publicly, intending to give justice to the Yunlang Mansion in the name of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Soho stood in the middle of the hall, facing everyone's disdainful or gloating eyes, his face was still faint.

"Dishonest! What did I do to keep you...... When your mother died, I should have thrown you out too! ”

Old Madam Su slammed on the ground with a cane, "You dare to deliberately destroy such a precious dress of the county lord, do you want to take revenge or do you want me to live in peace!" ”

After speaking, she angrily raised her crutches and hit it.

Soho's expression moved slightly, and he raised his hand to hold the other end of the cane, "If you only believe the words of the second young lady, it will be too unfair to me." ”

"Fair?"

Old Madam Su sneered twice, dragged her cane and knocked it on the ground, "You are doing it under everyone's noses, and you still want to say that you didn't do this?" Your mother is a lowly and unworthy female branch, what face do you have to protect from people! ”

"Come on, tie up this cheap girl, I have to vent my anger for the county lord today!"

At the sound of an order, several mothers-in-law immediately stepped forward.

At this time, the eldest lady of the long house, Liang and Ruping, walked in, and they both looked indifferent.

Now that the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Yunlang Wangfu are just married, it is not good for the family to annoy the county lord, they can't wait for the old lady to do it, so that the county lord has a place to vent his anger.

Soho, of course, would not be at the mercy of her mother-in-law, and she dodged like a loach and escaped their claws.

"Eldest lady, I and the eldest lady have never had a holiday, it is not good for you and me to annoy the county lord, I will not ask for trouble, not to mention who saw me stretch out my hand to push that maid?"

After that, she looked at Su Nian's gaze more and more like a torch, "Second Miss, did you really see it?" ”

"It's not you, who else will there be!" The county lord of Yunlang had changed into Su Qing's purple silk skirt, and his eyes were burning with anger, "This county lord just mentioned your mother in passing, you dare to retaliate, this county lord will never let you go!" ”

The most honorable person spoke, and Soho was once again the target of public criticism.

She reached out and hooked Su Nian's neck, put two fingers against her throat, leaned over and whispered: "I didn't provoke right and wrong in the side courtyard, and now you are pulling me into this fight, Miss Su Er, you are really good." ”

"You ......" Su Nian felt her cold fingertips pinching herself, as if she was entangled in a poisonous snake, and she was too frightened to move.

Lord Yunlang scolded impatiently: "What are you doing in a daze?" You smack her mouth to the lord of the county! ”

As the words fell, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside.

The person who came was wearing a dark blue official robe, looking dignified, about forty years old, and it was the head of the long house, Prime Minister Su Yuanqing.

Looking at the chaos in the room, Su Yuanqing immediately frowned: "What are you making trouble?" ”

Su Ho was loosening his two fingers, suppressing the thoughts that were holding Su Nian hostage, and standing aside in a disciplined manner.

The steward of the house immediately stepped forward and explained the matter carefully.

After listening to the ins and outs, Su Yuanqing's face became even more worried.

Although everyone was silent, one by one showed a gloating expression, thinking that Soho was finished this time, and if the prime minister personally punished him, it would definitely be much worse than being beaten by the old lady.

In the midst of all kinds of eyes, Su Yuanqing was silent for a moment before speaking: "Soho, did you push that maid?" ”

Soho straightened his back and said confidently, "No." ”

Her father is stubborn and unsmiling, and no one dares to disobey his orders in the house, but such a person also has advantages, that is, he has been worried about the country and the people for many years, and he has handled everything in a fair and just way.

Without sufficient human and material evidence, he would never arbitrarily order the judgment of a person who did not know whether he had been wronged.

Su Yuanqing refused to be punished, and the county lord of Yunlang suddenly became anxious, "It's her who pushed, she lied!" ”

Before the words fell, a cold gaze fell on her face, as if he wanted to pull her into the boundless sea, and he would not stop until she drowned.

The county lord of Yunlang looked at Su Ho's still indifferent appearance, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his back.

Su Yuanqing looked at her twice, then turned around and glanced at everyone one by one, "Where is the witness?" Who saw Soho push the maidservant? ”

With that, there was silence in the main hall.

How could anyone really see that they were busy serving the county lord and the two young ladies at that time, and by the time the screams rang out, the maid had already fallen out of Soho's side.

If it weren't for Miss Su Er's direct identification, how could they have determined that it was Su He who did it.
