Chapter 191 It's time to use the family law [Ask for a 5-star review with words and an addition
"Yes, and there are more than 3,000 taels from my family."
"I have more than eight hundred taels here."
"I have one thousand taels."
……
The group of people started chattering, and almost everyone had an IOU in their hands.
Su Zhiyi's forehead veins popped out when he heard this, and he felt a chill all over his body. The amount he heard alone was enough to buy a large farm outside the capital.
Su Yuejie was extremely panicked!
He couldn't go to the government office because he would be exposed if he did.
Liu was even more dumbfounded. How could there be so many?
Madam Zhou supported her and added up the sums she had heard. The sums she had calculated alone amounted to more than 30,000 taels. This was really too much...
"Su Yuejie, it stands to reason that this matter should not be the concern of an uncle like me, but now that the matter has come to your doorstep and your father has been injured, you should tell the truth."
Su Zhiru raised his hand slightly to silence the group of people.
Su Yuejie is telling the bullshit truth. Su Zhiru is embarrassing himself in public!
As Su Zhiyi's expression became increasingly gloomy, the old marquis and old Kang came over.
Before they entered the flower hall, they could already hear the noisy questioning inside. At this time, the old marquis came in and directly ordered:
"Send the eldest young master back to be raised. Liu will settle the accounts of these people and leave from the small storehouse of your eldest house."
When Liu heard that she had to pay the money herself, she didn't want to agree at all. However, she was frightened by the old marquis's cold gaze, and had to swallow back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
When Su Zhiru saw that the old marquis had made a clean break with the matter, he understood that he was going to protect his eldest grandson.
Although he was unhappy, he said nothing and stood up to leave with his wife and children.
Su Qingwan looked at the old marquis and asked:
"Grandfather, I remember one of our family rules is that anyone who gambles will be severely whipped thirty times, have a finger cut off, and then be expelled..."
"Su Qingwan!"
Liu interrupted Su Qingwan angrily.
The little bitch not only whipped her son, but also wanted to cut off his fingers, and even wanted to drive Su Yuejie out of the Marquis' Mansion, you cruel and dirty bastard!
Su Zhiyi also frowned in dissatisfaction. No matter how bad Yue Jie was, he was still his son. What was Su Qingwan talking about?
The old marquis also looked unhappy. He knew that there was such a rule in the family rules, but that was for others. Yue Jie was his eldest grandson, so how could he be so cruel?
"Jiang, take your daughter and leave quickly. The Marquis will make the decision on the affairs of the first house. It is not her turn to speak."
After hearing what Su Qingwan said, Old Kang was so eager to pounce on her and bite her to death.
Anyone who dares to touch her precious grandson is simply seeking death.
"I'm talking about the clan rules. Why are you so nervous? I understand if you want to be partial, but my brother is injured now, so we can't really whip him! Just wait until he heals before whipping him."
"But uncle, I just heard my elder brother say that he is the uncle of King Rui. He threatened these people with this. If the emperor knows about this, our mansion will be in trouble. I think you should discipline him strictly."
Su Qingwan finished her words with a smile and looked at the old marquis again.
The old marquis is a man who attaches great importance to the reputation of the marquisate. Last time, he was able to drive people out of the marquisate because of the eldest sister's matter, and this time he will not always protect Su Yuejie.
Su Qingwan's suggestion was just right, and he looked at Su Yuejie with fiery eyes.
If this kid is not disciplined, and if he really angers the emperor one day, and the emperor takes back his title, how will he face his ancestors?
"Grandfather, don't listen to her nonsense. That's definitely not what I meant." Su Yuejie keenly noticed that the old marquis had a strange look on his face when he looked at him.
Does this old guy want to hit himself?
How could that be possible? He was already injured, and if he was whipped again, he would probably be dead soon.
"My lord, Yuejie is still injured and cannot get hurt again." Old Kang was anxious. She couldn't bear to watch Su Yuejie get beaten.
Liu was also begging for mercy, but Su Zhiyi frowned. He also listened to what Su Qingwan said just now.
He had just felt that he could keep his official position when his son caused trouble. If the censors caught him and impeached him, he would no longer be an official in the Ministry of Rites. He could just go back to the marquis's mansion and wait for death.
"Beat him! Dad, this kid has committed such a serious crime, how can he not be taught a lesson?" Su Zhiyi said angrily.
I thought he was beaten. Besides, he wouldn't die from a few whippings.
The old marquis thought so too, and immediately asked someone to bring the family rules.
Liu and old Kang cried and tried to stop the fight, but were pulled aside by several strong women. The Zhao woman pinched Liu so hard that she cried out.
Su Yuejie was injured, and those people carefully turned him over, but the process still made Su Yuejie grimace in pain.
"Grandfather, don't hit me, I know I was wrong! Grandma, please save me!"
Su Yuejie's limbs were broken. He wanted to run away desperately, but he couldn't. He could only lie there, begging for mercy helplessly from Lao Kang and others.
"Evil creature, today I will teach you a lesson according to our ancestral family rules. I will teach you a lesson and see if you dare to be such a bastard again in the future!"
The old marquis had just finished his angry rebuke when the whip in his hand hit Su Yuejie's buttocks.
"what!"
Su Yuejie screamed in pain from being beaten.
But Su Qingwan could see that the old marquis didn't use much strength. After this whip, Su Yuejie didn't even bleed.
After being spanked thirty times, Su Yuejie's butt would only be swollen for two days at most.
The old marquis pretended not to hear Su Yuejie's screams, as well as the cries of old Kang and Liu, and swung the whip, lashing them more than twenty times in a row.
Perhaps it had been too long since he had done such intense exercise, or perhaps it was a good thing that he didn't count clearly. The old marquis stopped and looked at the butler, panting.
"Have you beaten enough?"
"Grandfather, there are still three more whips to go. You must be tired. Let my maid do the rest." Su Qingwan said before the housekeeper spoke.
The old marquis glanced at the little maidservant following Su Qingwan. He didn't know her name, but she looked weak, so he nodded in agreement.
Liu thought Su Qingwan was going to do it herself, but she didn't expect that she would let her maid do it.
That's fine! This girl looks frail, so she probably can't match the strength of Witch Rong.
Zhenzhu stepped forward, bowed to the old marquis, took the whip, and said to Su Yuejie: "Master, I'm sorry!"
The whip was raised instantly, and at the same time, Su Yunrou's voice came.
"Don't let her do it!"
Zhenzhu pretended not to hear and swung her hand downwards suddenly. The whip cut through the void and with a loud "snap" sound, it hit Su Yuejie hard.
Su Yuejie's screams instantly reached their highest point, shocking the old marquis and others.
