Su Xinlan lay sprawled on the ground, feeling as if every bone in her body had been shattered by the pain. She vomited blood as she gazed at Su Qingzhi, unable to utter a single coherent sentence.
Su Qingzhiâs face turned a furious shade of gray. âSu Xinlan, if you ever dare to set foot in my Marquisâs Manor again, Iâll break every bone in your body and feed you to the dogs! Youâre utterly heartless, you wretch!â
He waved his hand and bellowed, âMen! Drag this wretch out and toss her out of the Marquisâs Manor! Donât soil the grounds of the Marquisâs Manor!â
His roar was so thunderous that it made the roof tiles tremble.
But being an elderly man, Su Qingzhi, after being enraged by Su Xinlan, coughed several times and struggled to catch his breath.
Seeing this, Qin Wan quickly called for Su Wei to assist Su Qingzhi. âHurry, fetch the doctor and help Father back to his room to rest.â
Su Qingzhiâs face flushed red with anger, and he continued to shout about throwing Su Xinlan out.
Qin Wan patted his back, urging him, âFather, donât be angry. Take care of your health! Leave this matter to me. Father, go back and rest! Su Wei, help Father back!â
Su Wei nodded vigorously. âYes, General. General, please donât get angry and harm yourself!â
Su Wei then turned to glare fiercely at Su Xinlan.
Su Xinlan propped herself up against a pillar and got to her feet. She scolded Su Wei, âWhat are you staring at?! Youâre just a servant, not fit to glare at me!â
âSu Xinlan!â Qin Wan called out her name and rebuked her sternly, âThis is the Marquis of Martial Southâs Manor, not your Changxin Marquisâs Manor. Donât act out!â
Qin Wan, usually gentle with others, rarely spoke with such severity.
Su Xinlan was momentarily taken aback.
âWhat are you yelling for? Isnât every Marquisâs Manor my home? Iâll say whatever I want! Whatâs it to you!â Seeing that Su Yingxue was absent, she disregarded Qin Wan.
Qin Wan, recalling that Su Xinlan had provoked Su Qingzhi and interfered in the marriage of the two girls, felt furious.
She commanded the servants with a cold expression. âAll of you, escort her out of the Marquisâs Manor, and inform everyone at the gates that from now on, even if she hangs herself in front of the Marquisâs Manor, she is not permitted to set foot inside, lest she defile the Marquisâs Manor!â
âYes, Madam.â
Old Madam Zhang, sent by Su Yingxue as Qin Wanâs aide, was strong and nimble. Together with another servant, they lifted Su Xinlan and threw her out of the Marquisâs Manor. After she tumbled down the steps, Old Madam Zhang declared before everyone, âConcubine of Marquis Changxin, listen up. The old general has ordered that you are forbidden to return to the manor or even approach its gates. Otherwise, Iâll throw you out again!â
âOh? Whoâs this? Why was she thrown out of the Marquisâs Manor?â
âLook at her attire, she seems wealthy! Oh, she looks like Old General Suâs youngest daughter!â
âYoungest daughter? The concubine of Marquis Changxin? Flirting with the Old Marquis while bareheaded? Tsk, tsk, hurry and leave. Donât catch any bad luck! Even her own family threw her out. Sheâs heartless!â
People passing by in front of the manor were gossiping.
Su Xinlan was in agony but managed to get up and curse at them all. âWhat are you looking at?! Peasants! Even if Iâm thrown out, Iâm still the Marquisâs daughter, the one the Old Marquis favors the most! You canât even compare to me in a hundred lifetimes! Get lost!â
After cursing them, Su Xinlan quietly made her way to the side door of the Marquisâs Manor.
Although she had been expelled, her spies were still in place.
A servant of the Marquisâs Manor was listening to her instructions.
Su Xinlan tossed him two gold ingots and a hairpin. âThis is for you! As for what just happened in the residence, do you know what to say?â
