Chapter 195 Giving You Up for Adoption by Your Uncle

"You can't hit my mother!"

As soon as Madam Su finished speaking, two servants immediately came over to grab Cui Niang and take her away. Qiao Jie'er screamed in fear.

"Sister Qiao, get out of here! Take your brother out of here!"

Seeing that Sister Qiao was rushing towards her, Cui Niang was afraid that the careless servants would hurt the child, so she quickly shouted to her.

But when Qiao Jie'er saw her mother being taken away, she refused to listen. She took her younger brother's hand and tried to come over to protect Cui Niang.

"Lock those two brats up! They're so noisy!"

When Madam Su saw Sister Qiao and the others, she frowned in disgust and gave them instructions.

She was very dissatisfied with the fact that Su Zhen had a son and a daughter. She felt that now that Su Zhen had his own son, he would no longer wholeheartedly help her grandson.

Su Zhen is now a second-rank general, much more powerful than Su Yu. If he didn't have a son, he might be able to groom Su Lianwu as his successor.

Therefore, these two children are particularly irritating to Madam Su.

Sister Qiao and Brother Ping were dragged away by several maids while wailing loudly, and for a while the sound of wailing could not be stopped in the courtyard.

Su Wanshi watched this scene. Her face, which was not veiled and revealed a hideous expression, looked terrifying. Her eyes were filled with schadenfreude.

She felt that since she had suffered in prison, it was only right that Su Zhen's child and concubine were suffering now.

"ah!"

Screams echoed from inside the courtyard.

Cui Niang was tied to a stool, and a servant hit her with a wooden stick. Old Madam Su and the others stood by indifferently, watching with a sense of satisfaction.

One, two, and soon it reached ten blows. Cui Niang's screams grew fainter and fainter, and the child's cries faded into the distance.

"puff!"

Cui Niang was already weak from childbirth, and now that she had been beaten, she couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood.

She fainted.

"Madam, she's fainted!"

The servant gasped in surprise, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Old Madam Su.

They dared not fight anymore, fearing they might actually kill someone.

But the old lady wasn't afraid at all. She just said with a stern face, "Go check her breathing to see if she's still breathing!"

"He's still...he's still breathing..."

The servant checked her breathing and found that Cui Niang still had a faint breath, but seeing the blood around the corners of her mouth, he was still afraid.

Even if he's still breathing, you can't keep hitting him!

"Someone, spray her with water to wake her up! Stop pretending to be dead! Keep hitting her!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Su gave another fierce order.

That's right, in her opinion, Cui Niang was just pretending to be dead.

"Oh? Madam, you can't hit her anymore! Someone could really die if you keep hitting her!"

The servant exclaimed in surprise and tried to persuade Old Madam Su.

"You lowly servants dare to contradict your master? If you disobey, I'll beat you!"

Madam Su reprimanded her sternly.

The servants had no choice but to continue beating the servants with trembling hands.

Snap!

Another blow landed, and Cui Niang, who had been awakened by the water, was in so much pain that she couldn't even scream. She could only look at Old Madam Su with resentment.

"Hit! Hit him hard!"

She's just a lowly concubine; if she's killed, so be it!

Madam Su was even angrier by Cui Niang's look, and was now determined to beat Cui Niang to death to vent her anger.

"Bang!"

Just as the servant was about to strike with the stick with trembling hands, a stern voice suddenly came from the courtyard gate.

Everyone looked toward the courtyard gate and saw Su Zhen, dressed in martial arts attire, standing angrily at the entrance.

His eyes widened in fury when he saw Cui Niang tied to a stool in the courtyard, a sight that filled him with rage.

"Cui Niang!"

Su Zhen shouted and rushed forward to check on Cui Niang's condition.

"Master, you're finally back! Quickly, go save Sister Qiao and Brother Ping! They...they've been captured..."

Cui Niang was extremely weak and anxious, and she fainted before she could finish speaking.

"Someone, quickly go find a doctor!"

Su Zhen immediately untied Cui Niang and lifted her down, anxiously ordering his servants to find a doctor.

"Boss, what are you doing? Stop it right now!"

When Madam Su saw that Su Zhen didn't take her seriously and simply walked past her, carrying Cui Niang into the room, she was furious.

"Grandmother, will Uncle be angry with us?"

At this moment, Su Wanshi saw Su Zhen return, and she felt a little scared.

"Hmph! He wouldn't dare! I am his legal mother, let's see how he dares to blame us! Come on, Grandmother will take you to see him!"

Madam Su didn't think she had done anything wrong at all. She snorted and was about to take Su Wanshi and the others to find Su Zhen.

But Su Yu suddenly stopped Old Madam Su, somewhat worried.

"Mother, you almost beat my brother's woman to death. He'll probably be angry. We...we shouldn't go. Let's think of a way to help Wanshi restore her reputation!"

"What are you afraid of? She's just a concubine, not your elder brother's lawfully wedded wife! Besides, your elder brother has been promoted now, and he'll need me, his legal mother, to find him a suitable wife."

He wouldn't dare do anything to me, otherwise I'd be unfilial! And you don't need to worry about Wan Shi either, I'll have your older brother adopt Wan Shi as his daughter.

Once Wan Shi has the status of a general's legitimate daughter, what do those bad reputations matter? Many people will be scrambling to curry favor with her!

Madam Su shamelessly revealed her plans.

She didn't think she was being delusional at all, so much so that Su Wanshi was blinded by her confidence and believed her, while only the two Su brothers frowned on the side.
