Chapter 18 The Enraged First Lady of the Marquis's Mansion
"Young Miss, Madam wants you to come in."
Su Yunxi immediately perked up and entered the incredibly luxurious room, where she immediately saw a large screen inlaid with gold and jade.
Behind the screen, light shone brightly, and the candlelight illuminated the area as if it were daytime.
A graceful figure appeared before Su Yunxi.
"Mother, Su Luo, he..."
Snapped!
Before Su Yunxi could finish speaking, the First Madam of the Marquis's Mansion had already slapped her down.
Su Yunxi was stunned by the beating, her eyes reddening: "Mother, I..."
"Your Majesty!"
A noblewoman with an elegant and aloof demeanor, dressed only in a thin gauze dress, stared coldly at her.
She was the First Lady of the Marquis's Mansion, surnamed Xue.
Su Yunxi immediately knelt down, her face already streaked with tears, looking pitiful.
"Mother, I..."
The First Madam said coldly, "Do you know what you did wrong?"
Su Yunxi lowered her head, unable to speak.
Her delicate body trembled incessantly, seemingly filled with immense fear of the woman who had raised her.
The First Madam chuckled and softened her tone: "Yunxi, you should know who raised you."
"Of course I'd save money, daughter. If it weren't for my mother, I would have already..."
Su Yunxi quickly replied, "So, whatever Mother asks me to do, I will obey."
The First Madam said calmly, "Since you were obedient, why didn't you keep Su Luo here?"
Su Yunxi was pale and stammered, unable to speak.
"Do you know that after that little bastard leaves the Marquis's mansion, he could very well cause irreparable damage to our reputation?!"
The First Madam said, "Back then, I wanted to kill him directly, but you said you could make him stay willingly, and I listened to you."
"But he didn't stay, and before he left, he openly slapped you in the face."
"Who in the entire Marquis's mansion doesn't know that I dote on you the most? What's the difference between him slapping you and him slapping me?"
Su Yunxi's delicate body trembled. "Mother, your daughter... knows she was wrong!"
"My daughter was just thinking..."
The First Madam interrupted abruptly: "What you think is your business, but after this incident, I hope you can understand—"
"I am your mother."
You have to listen to whatever I say.
Su Yunxi bit her lip, looking very aggrieved.
She deliberately approached Su Luo, trying to appear as a caring older sister, all in an attempt to curry favor with the Madam.
But Su Luo is a madman.
Not only did they openly defy her, but they also exposed her most shameful side to the public.
And she even got slapped by the First Madam...
Su Yunxi's cheeks were burning, but she blamed all the responsibility on Su Luo, appearing incredibly obedient on the surface.
"Mother, I know I was wrong. What should I do?"
The First Madam of the Marquis's Mansion glanced at her and smiled slightly: "If you can admit your mistakes and correct them, then you are still my good daughter."
"Don't worry, what kind of trouble can a bastard child, whose life is worth less than a dog's, cause?"
“He cannot reach Xiaoyun Village alive; I have already made arrangements.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yunxi was startled.
So, the First Madam of the Marquis's Mansion had already decided to kill Su Luo when he left the Su family?!
Looking at the First Madam's exquisite face, Su Yunxi felt a pang of fear.
Who could have imagined that such a pure and beautiful woman could actually be as vicious as a snake...
Just then, Liu Mama suddenly rushed in, her face filled with anxiety: "Madam! Something terrible has happened!"
The First Madam frowned. "What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Madam Liu said, "Madam, it's about Su Luo... Our plan has failed!"
Listening to Liu's mother's report.
The First Lady of the Marquis's Mansion was initially astonished, but then her face turned extremely gloomy.
"So, that means I sent out thirteen people, and they all died?!"
"They even mobilized forces from Wolf Fang Mountain, yet that little bastard still made it to Xiaoyun Village alive?!"
The First Lady of the Marquis's Mansion could no longer maintain her composure; her eyes practically spitting fire: "Fine! Fine, fine, fine!"
"It seems I underestimated him! This little bastard has been hiding his true abilities all along!"
"Heh... He hides his talents in the Marquis's mansion, and he hides them from me. What exactly is he trying to do? Is he waiting to give me a surprise at any moment?!"
As she spoke, she looked at Su Yunxi and said coldly, "Su Yunxi, you saw that, didn't you?!"
"This is the trouble you've caused me?!"
Su Yunxi knelt on the ground, trembling.
"Mother, Mother, please don't be angry. Don't upset yourself..."
"That Su Luo, he won't be arrogant for long."
Su Yunxi said, "The town of Yunhai, which surrounds Xiaoyun Village, is headed by the Xie family's son, and I have some connections with him."
"I'll make him take action right now; he definitely won't let Su Luo get away with it..."
The First Madam of the Marquis's Mansion looked coldly at Su Yunxi and said, "I originally wanted Su Luo to die on the road so that I could shift the blame to mountain bandits and horse bandits."
"But what if something happens to him when he gets to Xiaoyun Village..."
Su Yunxi quickly said, "I understand. No matter what happens to Su Luo, it will not be related to your mother."
The First Madam said, "Su Yunxi, I hope you won't disappoint me this time."
"I'll give you a month. If Su Luo doesn't disappear from this world... the third young master of the Mo family in Qingzhou is seeking a marriage alliance."
Su Yunxi gritted her teeth and immediately thought of the third young master of the Mo family, who was born mentally challenged and was twenty years old this year. It was said that he needed to be fed by others.
Moreover, he has a violent temper and cannot control himself when angry. He once beat a maid to death.
Marrying him would be no different from death!
"Don't worry, Mother, I will definitely do a good job in this matter."
A fierce glint flashed in Su Yunxi's eyes as she thought to herself, "Su Luo, don't blame me... blame yourself for refusing to back down..."
"If you bow your head, I can still be your older sister... but if you're not willing to bow your head, then..."
She had made up her mind to write a letter to the Xie family's son, who was the mayor of Yunhai Town, as soon as she got back.
We need to get the other side to deal with Su Luo!
……
After Su Yunxi left, the First Madam of the Marquis's Mansion couldn't help but snort, "Indeed, a bastard is a bastard; even given a chance, he's useless..."
Liu Mama came over and whispered, "Madam, Su Luo's fiefdom seems to be not far from the eldest young master's fiefdom, perhaps..."
Snapped!
The First Madam immediately slapped Liu Mama across the face, her expression full of anger, and said, "Are you crazy?!"
"Xuan'er is a chosen one of heaven, a precious child, how could she be tainted by the filth of that lowly Su Luo?!"
Liu's mother trembled all over and immediately admitted her mistake.
"Tell Xuan'er not to worry about these things. I'll pave the way for him..."
The First Madam said calmly, "He only needs to be prepared to become the next Marquis of Sinan."
……
Su Luo slept soundly through the night, only waking up when the sun was high in the sky.
Ah Yue nestled in his arms, her delicate face beneath her silver hair still glistening with sweat.
Last night was too crazy. Su Luo's young body was so powerful that Ah Yue, who was inexperienced in such matters, begged for mercy repeatedly.
Finally, I was so tired that I fell asleep.
Su Luo carefully got out of bed, afraid of disturbing A Yue, wanting her to rest well.
Pushing open the door, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Delia, Si Mingyu, and the other six women were already up, sporting large dark circles under their eyes, and busy with their own tasks.
Su Luo asked instinctively, "What are you doing? Why do you all look so tired? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Si Mingyu was measuring the room when she heard this and glared at Su Luo: "Don't you know why we didn't sleep well?"
Su Luo wasn't ashamed at all, and chuckled, "There's nothing I can do about it, being healthy is like this."
"Besides, I'm healthy, shouldn't you be happy for yourself?!"
