Chapter 980: Chapter 978: Don’t Say Brother Yu Stinks
He approached Su Hao, and with a stern voice, he demanded, “Explain yourself to me clearly, what exactly is going on here!”
He had read every single word on the proclamation, the official documents, and the written papers, making sure he understood everything.
At this moment, his heart felt extremely heavy.
“Grandfather, you mustn’t believe these things, they are entirely fictitious. Yan’er and I share a deep affection, she could never be a spy. She is the daughter of a former minister, from an unblemished background!”
“Unblemished? Born of a courtesan, and you speak of purity?” Su Qinghe sneered, waving his sleeve, his eyes filled with contempt.
Su Hao could not refute, Wu Jinyan’s background was indeed not admirable, but her integrity was pure!
“Elder, that is going too far! Does a person’s origin determine their entire life? Are courtesans not human? Are their children not children?”
“No! The emperor, his officials, scholars, farmers, workers, merchants, the world has a social order with hierarchical distinctions, and it has always been this way! Women from pleasure quarters are lowly and vulgar, they simply do not deserve to be considered human!” Su Qinghe’s clan upheld traditional concepts rigorously, and his words reflected an adamant class mentality, bluntly wounding in their delivery.
Before Su Yingxue could object, Wu Jinyan burst out angrily with tear-filled eyes, “Do not insult my mother! My mother might have come from humble origins, and so did I, but we have never been disgraceful. Self-reliant women exist everywhere under the heavens, Elder, you look down upon so-called ‘lowly’ women, but do you not have such women in your own manor? Men like you, how lofty can you possibly be!”
“You… You’re insolent!” Su Qinghe flushed with anger, berated by Wu Jinyan, “You, a girl not yet married into the family, daring to slander and disrespect an elder like this, lacking all courtesy! The Su family cannot tolerate you!” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
“Indeed, Miss Wu, even if you are to marry Su Hao, this Master Su is even respected by Su Hao himself. As a wife, how can you be so impolite to an elder, damaging Su Hao’s face like this!” Lu Ying saw an opportunity to speak up, immediately winning Su Qinghe’s favor.
Pointing at her, Su Qinghe snorted at Wu Jinyan, “Look, this is what daughters of official families, young misses of great households, should be like! Now look at yourself!”
“You…”
Wu Jinyan clenched her teeth tightly as Su Qinghe continued to sling mud at her.
Her rage surged through her body, and a rush of blood surged to her abdomen, causing her to bend over in pain, “My child…”
Her stomach felt as if she had been punched several times.
“Sister-in-law!”
Su Yingxue quickly rushed to support her.
“Elder, we should respect you, but please, this is our family matter, do not meddle too much!”
Su Yingxue was extremely fed up with people like Su Qinghe, her temperament like Long Shuli’s, loathing his adherence to convention and class consciousness.
It was as if Su Yingxue slapped Su Qinghe with a plank, it might be alright to say the affairs of the Su family were unrelated to him.
His face turned the color of iron as he looked towards Su Qingzhi, “Qingzhi, you are still alive! Look at what your grandchildren are like! With one becoming the Ninth Princess Consort, the others below have become so disobedient! Just look!”
As if finding no one to confide in, he pointed at Su Hao first, then towards Su Han, “Look at her, a Young Miss, after renouncing ties, not staying at home but instead showing her face daily, followed by a man behind her! And there’s… your youngest granddaughter! At such a young age, mingling with those men reeking of money, disgraceful!”
“You’re the one who’s disgraceful! My brother Yan’er does not smell at all! He smells nice, you old man, you’re the one who smells! Not only do you stink, but your mouth is foul, enough to pollute the air!”
