Mrs. Wang got up early today, just to meet Su Jin in person.
She wanted to see what was so special about Su Jin, a disgraced princess, that she could be so obsessed with her precious son, and why and what qualifications did she have to reject her extremely outstanding offer again and again?
son.
Her trip was intended to intimidate Su Jin, so she gained enough momentum as soon as they met and gave Su Jin a powerful blow.
Su Jin also really felt Wang's majesty, and her harsh scolding made her breathless.
She quickly stabilized her steps, straightened her clothes, bowed to Mrs. Wang and admitted her mistake, saying, "Auntie is teaching me that it was Su Jin who lost his temper and forgot his etiquette."
Ye Mingyue in the yard frowned displeased.
But when she saw that the person coming was Du Tianlu's mother, out of respect for her elders, she couldn't say anything back, so she could only hold back the displeasure in her heart.
Mrs. Wang raised her chin and glanced sideways at Su Jin, looking her up and down with two cold eyes.
Then he frowned in disgust.
She saw that Su Jin was dressed in coarse cloth. There was no aura of nobility in her body, and she was almost the same as a village girl.
If it weren't for her pretty appearance, no one would take a second look at such a woman walking on the street.
"Humph!" Wang snorted angrily.
Not only was she angry that her son Du Tianlu had no future, but he was fascinated by such a mediocre woman, but he was also angry that Su Jin, who was already a phoenix in distress, was still picky and looked down on her son. I don’t know where it came from.
Confidence.
"Don't be afraid of losing your temper and forgetting etiquette for a moment, but you're afraid that you'll get used to being lazy and forget who you are." Mrs. Wang sneered, and then stepped into the small courtyard.
Su Jin smiled awkwardly.
She is not a fool, how could she not hear the ridicule and sarcasm in Wang's words.
But Wang is an elder, and she is obviously angry. It is not wise to argue with her.
She had a clear mind and had roughly guessed why she came from Wang's attitude of raising an army to investigate.
I think it was probably for Du Tianlu to ask for an explanation.
Su Jin couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
But when Mrs. Wang entered the yard, she couldn't leave him alone in the yard, so she had to follow Mr. Wang back to the yard.
She quickly glanced at Ye Mingyue and signaled her to quickly remind Zhang Xiaozu.
Ye Mingyue was seeing Wang's displeasure, and left immediately after receiving Su Jin's instructions. She was afraid that if she stayed in the courtyard any longer, Wang would be furious.
Mrs. Wang walked around the courtyard, looked at the school, looked at the east and west wing rooms, then frowned and said displeasedly: "Don't you even have a place to entertain guests here?"
"The place is simple, I hope my aunt will take care of it." Su Jin responded.
After saying that, he walked to the dining table and brought a stool to Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang glanced at the bamboo stool in Su Jin's hand, laughed angrily on the spot, and said disgustedly: "I don't dare to sit on this stool of yours."
"I just washed these stools the day before yesterday. They just look a bit old on the surface, but they are not actually dirty." Su Jin said.
Wang was speechless and laughed.
She didn't dare to sit because she was afraid that the stool would be dirty. She didn't want to sit because she felt that the bamboo stool in Su Jin's hand would undermine her noble status.
She laughed at Su Jin who not only dressed like a village girl, but also had a narrow vision and outlook like a village girl.
The once famous Princess Jin was completely shut down in this crude and narrow courtyard.
Mrs. Wang felt that it was a blessing that she came today, otherwise if Su Jin was given the opportunity to let this princess, who was as worthless as a village girl, marry into her family, the family's face would sooner or later be lost to her.
The maidservant who was waiting beside Mrs. Wang moved behind Mrs. Wang, knelt on the ground with her palms on the ground, and said crisply: "Madam, please sit down."
Mrs. Wang raised her chin and glanced at Su Jin, then sat down on the maid's back.
Su Jin looked at the human seat under Wang's buttocks, then looked at the old bamboo stool in his hand, and felt that it was still comfortable to sit on.
Mrs. Wang sat down, looked at Su Jin and said: "Su Jin, before I came here, I had some expectations for you. I felt that my family Tianlu was obsessed with you and didn't even look at other girls. Then
There must be something extraordinary about you, but when I saw you today, I was extremely disappointed."
She spoke harshly and didn't give Su Jin any face.
Su Jin said nothing.
"I was puzzled at first. My son is so outstanding. Why do you, an older princess who has fallen out of favor, have the right to reject his love again and again?"
"But just now, I seemed to have found the answer."
Wang stared into Su Jin's eyes and said with absolute certainty: "You must be ashamed of yourself and feel you are not worthy of my son, so you have repeatedly rejected him, right?"
"——" Su Jin was stunned on the spot.
This was a question she had never thought about.
But if saying this could send Wang away quickly, she wouldn't mind at all.
"Madam, what you said is absolutely true. How can I, an older princess who has lost her favor, be worthy of the all-outstanding Young Master Ling? I must not delay him." Su Jin said sincerely, following Wang's wishes.
"But everyone in the prime minister's house is still making preparations for your marriage to Tianlu." Mrs. Wang said displeasedly with a cold face.
"This is - why?" Su Jin was surprised.
She had made it clear to Du Tianlu yesterday, and Du Tianlu had promised in person that he would not force her to do anything, so why was the prime minister still planning the marriage? Did Du Tianlu lie to her?
"This is what the old man in the family told me." Wang quickly gave Su Jin the answer and said: "I think it is because the old man loves Tianlu very much. Seeing that Tianlu is very obsessed with you, he wanted to help Tianlu fulfill his wish.
Therefore, he will propose this marriage to His Majesty at the reward ceremony tomorrow."
"Why is this necessary?" Su Jin smiled bitterly upon hearing this.
She knew that the old man of the Du family would definitely hit a wall, because the father had already promised her, so he would definitely not break his promise.
"Oh, are you already feeling happy?" Wang asked with a sneer.
Without waiting for Su Jin to reply, she continued: "Your Majesty will happily agree to this marriage. After all, Tianlu is so outstanding, but you are already in such a ruined state. He can marry you off and marry you so well.
What reason does Your Majesty have to refuse?"
"——" Su Jin didn't know how to respond to Wang who was completely immersed in her own world.
Wang's tone suddenly darkened, she stared at Su Jin and almost gritted her teeth and said, "I hope you can come forward and refuse, because I really don't like you, and I don't want to accept a daughter-in-law like you."
She just wanted to let Su Jin know her dislike for her, so she spoke straightforwardly without even thinking about Su Jin's feelings.
If it were Su Jin in the past, if she heard Mr. Wang humiliating her like this in person, she would have been so angry that she would have had to shout hysterically with Mr. Wang for several times.
But now Su Jin has taken everything lightly.
She didn't care at all whether Mr. Wang liked her or disliked her, because in her opinion, Mr. Wang was just a dispensable passer-by in her life, so why should she be treated like a normal person.
"How do you want me to refuse, madam?" Su Jin asked casually.
She no longer had the slightest interest in Mr. Wang, and just wanted to get rid of her quickly, because the students were about to come to class.
Wang was a little surprised by Su Jin's dull reaction.
In her expectation, Su Jin would be angry, or paralyzed by a deep shock, or cry into tears and beg her——
But Su Jin was surprisingly calm.
On the other hand, when she saw Su Jin's calm expression, she almost couldn't help but get angry. She felt like she was being ignored by Su Jin.
"A few years ago, didn't you cry and howl to leave your short-lived lover a widow? Then do the same thing and cry again." Wang used the calmest voice to reveal the most painful scar in Su Jin's heart.
She wanted to see if Su Jin could continue to calm down.
The result made her very satisfied, and she saw that Su Jin's face turned pale.
But the next moment her face turned pale, because a cold and sharp sword was placed on her neck.
Ye Mingyue came back and happened to hear Wang's sarcasm towards Su Jin. She immediately became furious and wished she could wipe Wang's neck with a sword.
"If you dare to spit shit again, I will kill you!" Ye Mingyue warned in an emotionless voice.
Wang regained her composure and sneered: "I'll give you ten courages, do you dare to kill me?"
Ye Mingyue's hand holding the sword slightly retracted, and the blade immediately cut the skin on Wang's neck, and blood flowed down the blade.
"Ah——" Wang's face turned pale with fright.
"Apologise!" Ye Mingyue ordered.
"Let me apologize to her? Don't even think about it!" Ms. Wang was a bit tough and was not frightened by Ye Mingyue.
She came here to scare Su Jin today. If she ended up apologizing to Su Jin, then if Su Jin really married into the Du family, wouldn't she, the mother-in-law, have to be dominated by Su Jin forever?
So asking her to apologize to Su Jin is a fantasy.
"Then go die!" Ye Mingyue's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Mingyue, forget it!" Su Jin felt murderous intent from Ye Mingyue and hurriedly shouted to stop.
Wang couldn't just kill him if he said so.
Ye Mingyue frowned.
But she was not thinking about whether Wang could be killed, but she was worried that this was Taiping College and she couldn't kill anyone in the college.
"The students are coming soon, let her go." Su Jin said again.
"Go away!" Ye Mingyue put away her sword.
However, Wang did not flee in panic.
She took the handkerchief from the maid's hand and gently wiped the blood on her neck. With a fierce look in her eyes, she stared at Ye Mingyue and said: "I have written down this sword. When my son asks himself about Tianzong's learning,
When she returns, I will ask her to ask you for advice on this sword."
After saying that, he looked at Su Jin and warned: "You'd better not step on the Du family's door. You will regret it if you step in."
After saying that, he walked away with his head held high.
"Look at her, her tail is almost up to the sky." Ye Mingyue said unhappily as she looked at Wang's leaving back.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mrs. Du doesn't have a tail." Su Jin shouted.
Wang, who had just walked out of the courtyard, was livid with anger when she heard the conversation between Ye Mingyue and Su Jin.
Especially Su Jin's words sounded like he was defending her, but after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that he was scolding her in disguise, just like saying that a person is not a pig.
"Du Keyi, I heard that I will go home to visit relatives next month." Ye Mingyue suddenly said as she watched Wang's back disappear into the bamboo forest path.
Su Jin was startled when he heard this, and said worriedly: "When the time comes, try to hide as much as possible. You can follow the teachings of the saint, and your fighting power will definitely be good."
