Chapter 986: Chapter 984: The Reputation of the Marquis’s Manor is Ruined

She also hinted to Su Han to consider more for her and Song Chengyi’s sake.

If grandfather also got angry about this matter and again disagreed with her marriage to Song Chengyi, it would be a huge drag!

If she could bear the responsibility alone, then let her bear it alone!

With her lips pressed tightly together, Su Han was cautious, not speaking any further.

Seeing them like this, Su Qingzhi’s anger did not subside but grew. “Have responsibility? Can this matter be solved simply because you have responsibility? The reputation of the Marquis’s Manor, my own dignity, Su Hao’s future, can these be salvaged by you just claiming responsibility? For decades, the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor has never been humiliated like it is today! To marry a woman into the family who is carrying another man’s child! You really have grown capable!”

“Bang!”

Su Qingzhi waved his hand and smashed the teacup, the shattered pieces embedding into the carpet!

The entire hall was filled with an oppressively heavy atmosphere.

Nobody dared to speak lightly.

Only Su Qinghe let out a low sigh, “Qingzhi, being angry now is of no help. The thing we need to think about is what to do about Su Hao’s marriage arrangement. We can’t just let him waste his whole life on Wu Jinyan, can we? He owes the Lu family and Lu Ying an explanation.”

He couldn’t help but bring this up because of Lu Ying’s exemplary conduct today, which made him feel that this woman, with her grace and sense of propriety, was a hundred times more suitable for Su Hao than Wu Jinyan.

“Why do you keep praising Lu Ying? Are those things you received today from her?” Su Yingxue looked at Su Qinghe with suspicion.

Su Qinghe’s expression immediately turned cold, “There’s no need for such suspicion. Those things were not from the Lu family! They were from a student of mine who just returned from Bamboo Leaf Pass. I invited him to the wedding, and when we discussed the events of Bamboo Leaf Pass, he gave them to me. The matter concerns the Su family’s lineage and the position of the young madam of the Marquis’s Manor. How could I remain indifferent?”

With such an explanation from Su Qinghe, coupled with his rigid and stubborn thinking, it was not difficult to understand why he was insisting on preventing Wu Jinyan’s entry into the manor today, even at the expense of the Manor’s face.

After all, if the wedding was completed and then they forced Su Hao to divorce Wu Jinyan, the gossip about the Marquis’s Manor would be even worse.

“Yingxue, is this how you show suspicion to your elders? Lately, you have been increasingly inappropriate! You meddle in your brother’s affairs, and you can’t even manage your sister properly. What was Xiao Yu doing at the Marquis’s Manor today!”

Su Qingzhi’s harsh reprimand weighed heavily on Su Yingxue’s heart.

“The matter between Xiao Yu and Miaoyan, I was planning to report to you after brother’s wedding. Xiao Yu has intentions toward Miaoyan, and the Xiao family as well…”

“Miaoyan is not yet of age. What place is the Xiao family for her to go to!”

Su Qingzhi firmly opposed, casting a harsh scolding on Su Yingxue, “Just because the Ninth Prince is indulgent with you, does not mean you can do whatever you please!”

As Su Qingzhi berated more, he grew even angrier, “Regarding today’s humiliation of the Manor, you and Su Hao cannot shirk responsibility. I will give each of you twenty heavy strokes. As for Su Hao’s marital affairs… I will let him marry Lu Ying soon, making her the young madam of the Marquis’s Manor!”

“Grandpa!”

Su Yingxue was deeply startled, “Brother doesn’t like Lu Ying, how can you make him marry her?”

“What does it matter if he doesn’t like her? Lu Ying has the capabilities to become the young madam of the Marquis’s Manor. As for your brother… if he doesn’t like her, he shouldn’t have touched Lu Ying! Now, the Marquis’s Manor has been humiliated. If he wrongs Lu Ying by flouting proper behavior at the beginning and abandoning her in the end, how will the world speak of our Manor? The reputation of the Su family built over a hundred years could be destroyed in an instant!”

Su Qingzhi’s voice boomed.
