Lady Su’s Revenge

Chapter 46 - A Strange Combination of Circumstances



Chapter 46 A Strange Combination of Circumstances

“I heard that you have that kind of drug. How about… Then my Second Sister’s reputation will be completely ruined and no one can save her!” Su Zipei secretly gestured. Lin Xiang’s expression changed dramatically and she was very serious.

How did Su Zipei know that she had that kind of drug?!

“Rest assured. I will never say it to others.” Su Zipei was a little anxious, “As long as you help me, I will obey your orders all the time!”

Lin Xiang thought for a moment and looked at Zhu Yan who was sitting on the elder’s seat without any sense. She curled her lips and thought, “It is interesting to see the full sisters hurt each other.”

“Well, I will help you once. Let Su Li become a slut and lose her reputation!”

After three drinks, the atmosphere became more and more lively. Tonight, no one mentioned any grievances among the families. The host and the guests were all happy.

After Su Li drank a few cups of wine, many childes, like a crowd of mad bees or butterflies, continued to propose toasts to her. It was annoying. She had to pretend to be drunk. As a result, many childes who declared to be considerate no longer approached.

“Everyone knows your name in the Dasu Town. Now I see you. You deserve the reputation you enjoy. It is enviable that you are so beautiful.”

Lin Xiang walked to Su Li lightly with two cups of tea, “You have drunk a lot. I substitute wine with tea to propose a toast to you.”

Su Li did not suspect her. She took the teacup and smiled, “Thank you. I have drunk a lot and feel thirsty.”

Then she finished the cup of tea.

Standing in the distance, Su Zipei saw the scene and she was ecstatic, “Su Li, even if you have great ability, you will not escape the disaster today. After tonight, you can’t be proud anymore.”

Lin Xiang was relieved and her expression was not changed. She turned away after uttering a few words to Su Li.

After Lin Xiang went away, Su Li smiled but her forehead was full of sweat. She barely smiled, “I feel sorry that I am uncomfortable and want to go to the guest room to have a rest.”

She did not wait for the invitation of those childes to accompany her and hurriedly left the seat.

“Zipei, the drug is coming into effect. You must lead people to the room, otherwise you will waste all the previous efforts. Don’t blame me if that happens.” After Lin Xiang warned Su Zipei, she left away. It was inconvenient for her to stay there.

Su Zipei nodded and turned her resentful eye sight to Yang Wei, “Cousin, I have a big gift for you. You should thank me very much…”

However, Su Li went to the backyard of the Yang Family and entered a room which was empty. She did not go to the guest room.

After a while, Su Li leaned against the tea table and she was a little scared after the event.

“Fortunately, my response was timely. Lin Xiang put the drug in the tea. I was careless.”

Su Li’s eye sight was cold and she did not know the reason why Lin Xiang who she had never met before harmed her.

After the forehead sweat was steamed, Su Li recovered her composure. She picked up the teacup on the table and looked at it carefully. The half cup of clear tea water was the philter which she just forced out.

“If the drug was digested, even I couldn’t resist it.”

Su Li was about to pour out the tea. Suddenly, she heard something unusual from outside. She flashed away regardless of the tea and jumped over the high wall and left the Yang House.

In the next moment, a woman who looked still attractive opened the door and came in.

“Where is Wei? Does he go to find Su Li again?”

Su Yuezhu was so annoyed that she soliloquized. She was thirsty and picked up the teacup on the table. After she drank, she turned away to the guest room.

After Su Zipei sent Yang Wei into the courtyard of the guest room, she stayed at the door and listened. After she heard that kind of sound which made her ears turn red, she gritted her teeth and turned away to the main hall.

“Zipei, what on earth is your amazing discovery? You want these old guys to come over with you.”

On the way to the guest room, Su Zipei led the way. Behind her were a large group of people.

They were Yang Li, Su Huanli, Zhu Rongkun and others. Even Yang Huai, the Old Master Yang of the Yang Family came over to join in the fun.

“Alas, uncle. Don’t ask more questions. Follow me and you will know.” Su Zipei was about to speak but said nothing. Immediately, these people were nervous. It seemed that what happened in the guest room was not good.

But Zhu Yan expected to see it. Su Zipei had already told her clearly before she did it. Zhu Yan did not expect that she had failed to deal with Su Li for multiple times but she would finally fall into her daughter’s hand.

In the twinkling of an eye, they arrived at the guest room.

When Yang Li heard the voices in the room, his face changed dramatically and rushed in regardless of the situation. When he saw the two people who were having sex in the room, he was extremely shocked and fell to the ground.

When the following people saw the absurd scene in the room, their eyes widened in disbelief.

“Wow…”

“Was Yang Li cuckolded?”

Someone asked in the crowd. The Old Master of the Yang Family turned his eyes and spat blood. Then he fell onto the ground!

“Old Master!”

The crowd suddenly became chaotic and noisy. Now, the two people who were recollecting what they had done suddenly woke up. When Su Yuezhu saw a large group of people around the bed, she screamed and directly fainted.

Yang Wei trembled down from Su Yuezhu’s body and he was extremely pale. He looked at his father, who was staring at him and ready to kill him. Feeling soft feet, he knelt and cried hard, “Dad, it’s not what you think. She…She seduced me. I didn’t mean to do that!”

“Scoundrel! I’ll kill you!”

Yang Li’s eyes were red and he picked up his father’s crutch to beat his son. Others immediately rushed up to separate them. If someone died, it would be worse.

“How could it be the aunt, I did…”

Su Zipei was completely stunned. No matter how she recollected it, she could not understand why the person on the bed was not her sister but her aunt.

“Mother, I…”

Su Zipei was ready to speak, but her mother covered her mouth hard. “You were set up by someone. Don’t you know?”

“It’s Lin Xiang!” Su Zipei was shocked. Her heart was immediately filled with hatred, “Bitch, she cheated me!”

Su Huanli was angry. That’s because Su Yuezhu was dissolute, which would inevitably damage the reputation of the Su Family. Even the reputation of Su Li may be affected, which would accordingly affect the business of the Baiwei Building.

“Such a big scandal!”

“The master of the Yang Family was cuckolded. Poor man! No one can stand it.”

“Yang Wei is a supervisor. With the incident exposed, he may lose his official position…”

“…”

The guests who left widely discussed about it and every word was heard by Su Li who just came back to the Yang House from the outside.

“Is the scandal of Su Yuezhu exposed?”

Su Li was amazed. When she remembered the unusual noise in the front yard, she couldn’t help but feel weird. Was that cup of tea drunk by Su Yuezhu?

“Li, why are you standing here?”

Su Huanli came out of the house and met Su Li. Zhu Yan and Su Zipei followed him.

Su Li stared at Su Zipei and immediately explained to her father, “I drank a lot and felt dizzy, so I came out to get a breath of air. Well, what happened? I heard from those guests…”

“Hum, your aunt did something wrong!” Su Huanli looked serious and waved his sleeves, “Go back. Don’t talk to your aunt any more from now on to avoid getting trouble.”

Su Li nodded with mixed emotions. After her rebirth, many things deviated from the original trajectory under her intervention. She vaguely remembered that in previous life, Su Yuezhu was exposed two years later.

Next day, Su Li just returned to the Jinyuan Court after the morning class. She saw that Mammy Li was approaching to her furtively and said near her ear, “Miss, the result of the Yang Family’s incident came out. It turned out that Master Yang let his mother have drug. Master Yang is really an asshole. He even did the thing to his biological mother!”

“Oh?”

Su Li raised her eyebrows and quickly understood the cause and effect. Li Shanbao didn’t like Yang Wei for a long time. Regardless of the cause, Li Shanbao would inevitably write to the satrap to impeach Yang Wei.

The officials of the Dahan Country paid much attention to filial piety and integrity. Yang Wei violated one of the major taboos. His official position will inevitably be lost. Even if he had a connection with someone in the Provincial Office, there was no way.

“But without the help of Yang Wei, the Baiwei Building would be in danger.”

Su Li frowned slightly and the change was unexpected. Although she was reborn and knew the big events, she was not the God. This kind of accident was naturally unexpected.

Currently in the Magistrate Mansion —

Li Wei was happy and sat down in a creaking chair, “Uncle, the method is really wonderful! Without Yang Wei, we can take charge of the Baiwei Building again!”

Li Shanbao snorted and said, “The Yang Family is not a concern any more. None of the Zhu and Su Families is in the imperial court. I am sure that the Baiwei Building will be mine. No one can stop it!”

“Uncle, the Baiwei Building is not the same as before. Its profit is nearly 3,000 taels a day. If we can get it, we will be rich!” Li Wei was so excited that he breathed heavily, “This is the triple profit of the Baiwei Building before!”

“The little girl of the Su Family really has some means.” Li Shanbao shook his head, as if everything was in his control, “At that time, I will ask her to continue to manage the restaurant. The sale of the precious Beggar’s Chicken cannot be interrupted, and the amount in each month should be increased so that the business could expand to other towns…”

From what he said, Su Li seemed to be the servant of the Li Family.

Li Shanbao dreamt a brilliant future and almost drooled.

At this moment, a guard from outside asked him, “Master, there are two letters sent from the County Town. Maybe the annual preliminary examination notice came out.”

“Bring them to me!” Li Shanbao waved his hand and laughed.

Although Su Qingtan was good, his horizon was limited. Such a youngster who lived in the County Town was a mediocrity. It was impossible for him to pass the preliminary examination. Because he was sure that Su Qingtan could not pass the preliminary examination, he planned to capture the Baiwei Building with relief.

As an exception, Yang Wei was lucky. Su Qingtan, however, was not.

With the ideas in mind, Li Shanbao opened the examination notice. He glanced at the names in the back of the list. As expected, there was no Su Qingtan’s name. He instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Sure enough, that’s what I had expected. How could anyone in the small place like the Dasu Town pass the preliminary examination?”

Li Shanbao was about to close the examination notice, but Li Wei screamed, “Uncle, look at the front of the examination notice!”

Li Shanbao was stunned and did so. He murmured, “Is Su Qingtan at the top of the list?”

This time, Li Shanbao was shocked and his two pupils almost came out. The examination notice fell onto the ground.

The scroll was unfolded, and the three words in the first row and column were unusually eye-catching.

“Su Qingtan!”

After the shock, Li Shanbao calmed down and had a cold sweat. Whoever ranked the first in the preliminary examination could skip the second examination and go to the School of Chinese Classics for a year-long rest. Then he would go to Yunjing to meet the emperor and participate in the highest-standard final imperial examination!

So long as the results were not too bad, he could at least get a title in the fifth grade. Compared with his low official position, there were lots of differences!

“Were all examinees who participated in the preliminary examination mediocrities this year? Was it the reason why Su Qingtan ranked the first?!”
