Chapter 258 - 258: Increasingly Difficult to Understand My Sister
“But if she doesn’t enter the house, how can I close the door and beat the dog?” Su Yingxue tilted her head.
Su Hao looked at her in surprise, “You deliberately let her enter the manor?”
“Yes.” Su Yingxue followed him back to Ling Xiao Court. She didn’t hide anything from Su Hao and told him about the deadly plague in the medical center and the matters related to Silver Moon Pavilion.
“What? That woman was so vicious! By doing this, you’re inviting a wolf into the house!” Su Hao punched the table.
Su Yingxue consoled him, “Brother, this is clearly a dog beating behind closed doors! Rather than letting her stay in Yaoguang Garden and plot against us, it would be better to let her stay in the Marquis’s Manor. Under my watchful eyes, this is our home. She’s just an outsider woman who doesn’t even deserve the status of a concubine. What can she use to threaten us?”
“Didn’t you ask father to take her as a concubine?” Su Hao’s eyes were filled with doubt.
“I did ask father to do this, but isn’t it a different matter whether he can do it or not?” Su Yingxue’s black eyes turned around slyly.
“What other ideas are you hiding from me again?” Su Hao flicked her nose.
Now, he found it increasingly difficult to understand his sister.
Su Yingxue kept Su Hao in suspense. “Anyway, I can guarantee brother that regardless of whether it’s a wife or a concubine, that woman called Liu Shulan is not qualified. She can only be a servant when she enters the Marquis’s Manor. She will even spit out all the assets that belonged to mother that she embezzled in the past and return them to us!”
Su Hao felt that it was unbelievable, “A woman who has such vicious thoughts and almost killed you is not easy to deal with. You have to be careful!”
“Don’t worry. If I’m not careful, there’s still Sister Jinyan! Brother doesn’t trust me, but don’t you trust her?” Su Yingxue secretly teased Su Hao.
Su Hao’s face suddenly blushed, “Of course she’s cautious!”
If Wu Jinyan hadn’t been so cautious, she would have married him in a daze!
However, it was precisely because she was cautious that he understood that they both needed to work harder.
He ultimately agreed with Su Yingxue, but he admonished her, “If something like this happens in the future, don’t hide it from me. I’ll save you even if 1 have to risk my life! I won’t allow anything to happen to you, understand?”
He patted her shoulder. The affection in his eyes made Su Yingxue extremely moved.
In her previous life, her brother had died because of her, and she didn’t have much time to enjoy the bond between siblings.
However, it was different now. They would all live well!
Su Dingheng very quickly began to prepare for the matter of taking in concubines. Their Marquis’s Manor had a deep root, and even if he, the Marquis, were to take in concubines, even if the old master wasn’t around, he would still have to invite the elders of the clan to nod their heads and be witnesses!
Originally, the elders of the clan were aligned with the old master. However, when they saw that Su Yingxue had nodded and agreed to help Su Dingheng personally, they couldn’t openly object.
Su Yingxue publicly proposed, “Daddy taking a concubine is a significant matter. We should open the ancestral hall and seek the guidance of our ancestors. Once the ancestral hall is open for worship, we must bestow widespread benevolence. Since 1 can’t assist Daddy in many ways, 1 boldly take on this responsibility.”
Su Dingheng was overjoyed and paid little attention to these details. Su Yingxue’s understanding and wise words won the favor of the clan elders. He couldn’t stop smiling. “Very well! Truly, you are my excellent daughter. I entrust this matter to you! This is your responsibility as a legitimate daughter!” “That’s right, Eldest Young Miss is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor, should naturally handle it in this manner!”
“Thank you for your praise, uncles and esteemed elders..”
