Shengjing Noble

Chapter 169 Self-invitation and divorce

In the blink of an eye, it was the day for the announcement of the results.

Early in the morning, Lu Wanjun sent people to investigate, while she paced back and forth nervously in the room.

Cuizhu suddenly rushed in, her eyes full of excitement.

"Master! The eldest young master, the eldest young master he...he..."

Lu Wanjun was already nervous, and seeing her like this, she was even more frightened. She asked with a pale face, "What happened to Yan'er? Please tell me clearly! How is my Yan'er?"

Cuizhu swallowed her saliva and finally recovered. Then she said, "Go and have a look! The young master can stand up now!"

"what?"

Lu Wanjun was stunned, and the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground. After she came to her senses, she almost ran out of the door and headed towards Su Shengyan's yard.

After moving here, Su Lanyin still named the courtyard Langya Pavilion.

In her heart, big brother deserves these three words.

As soon as I entered the gate of Langya Pavilion, I saw Su Lanyin helping Su Shengyan to stand up, and A'mo on the other side.

The two were too nervous to speak, for fear of putting pressure on the eldest brother and making it more difficult for him to stand.

Su Shengyan gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead. He tried hard to hold on to the two people beside him with his hands. His body was rising up little by little, and his legs were shaking uncontrollably.

When Lu Wanjun saw this scene, she froze in place and dared not move forward. She looked at her eldest son who was trying hard to stand up in the yard, and her heart seemed to be bleeding.

Su Shengyan stared at his legs, enduring the pain that ordinary people could not bear, and finally stood up.

But it was only for a short while, and soon his legs went weak and he almost fell off the wheelchair. Fortunately, Su Lanyin and A'mo were quick to catch him.

"Big brother!"

"Young Master!"

Su Shengyan's face was pale and his lips were extremely dry. Cold sweat from his forehead flowed down his neck and he was gasping for breath.

His eyes were red, and he shook his head and said, "I'm fine... Did I stand up just now?"

Su Lanyin held back her tears and nodded, "Yes! Big brother, you stood up! You really stood up!"

Su Shengyan suddenly laughed, then leaned back in the wheelchair, looking at the endless blue sky, letting the tears flow down the corners of his eyes and hide in his hair.

"I, Su Shengyan... have stood up again!"

Su Lanyin squatted beside him and held his hand tightly, saying firmly: "Brother, as long as you keep practicing every day, you will recover to your former state one day. I said I would heal you, and I will never break my promise!"

Su Shengyan held her hand gently. Although he didn't have much strength, after so much practice, he was able to do some simple movements. However, his legs were still far from perfect.

"Yinyin, it's a good thing I have you, otherwise this family would really fall apart."

Seeing her son and daughter holding hands, Lu Wanjun felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, a mixture of happiness and sadness.

It has not been easy along the way.

She strode into the yard, walked to her children, squatted down and hugged them all in her arms.

"Yan'er, Yinyin, you are both your mother's good children. We will get better and better."

Let those who once bullied them and looked down on them, all look at them with new eyes and regret their actions!

Su Lanyin wiped her tears, stood up and asked, "Today is the day when the results are announced. How is Second Brother doing?"

"He left early in the morning and there has been no news since then. The people sent out to inquire about him have not returned either. Alas, I don't know if he passed the exam or not."

"Don't worry, mother. Second brother is so promising that he will definitely pass the exam. We can't help him much, so just wait patiently."

"Ah."

At this time, the Su family.

"Hurry up, the results are about to be announced, hurry up and grab a good spot, and come back to report as soon as possible!"

Outside the door, Su Lanxin urged anxiously.

In the room, Liu Ruyan knelt in front of the Bodhisattva with her hands clasped together and her eyes closed, muttering silently: "Manjusri Bodhisattva, may my son Su Shenghao pass the imperial examination and live up to his hard work over the years..."

Nanny Yang walked into the courtyard and saw that everyone looked panicked. She said unhappily, "Okay, you don't have to worry. The old lady has already sent someone to check the list this morning."

"Madam, I'm not saying anything bad to you. Such an important matter should be prepared in advance. You're still worrying about it. In the past, when Concubine Lu was in charge of household affairs, she never made the old lady suffer so much."

Liu Ruyan slowly opened her eyes, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, but her face remained calm.

She stood up and walked out, her face obviously haggard.

I don’t know what happened yesterday, I didn’t sleep well the whole night. I tossed and turned, and the first thing I saw when I closed my eyes was that dark list.

She wanted to find Su Shenghao's name, but she couldn't see it no matter how hard she looked.

So, she felt heavy in her heart, and kept wondering if her son had failed the exam.

If Su Shenghao failed the exam but Su Shengyun did, wouldn't she have completely lost to Lu Wanjun?

No!

How could Su Shengyun pass the exam when his right hand was broken?

It shouldn't be possible...

Thinking of this, she walked forward with an unhappy look on her face and said, "Madam Yang, what do you mean by this? If the old lady thinks Lu Wanjun is good, she can just invite her back and give her my position as the legitimate wife. At worst, I can also ask for a divorce with my children!"

Nanny Yang couldn't help but roll her eyes and whispered, "I don't mean that. Besides, if they divorce, what will happen to the Su family? I'm just here to help the old lady pass on a message to you to go to Wanshou Pavilion. Now that the message has been delivered, I'll take my leave."

After saying that, she turned and left without even looking back, not even bothering to say hello.

After all, the Su family today is no longer the same as before.

Back when Lu Wanjun was the housekeeper, they had a lot of monthly wages, bonuses, and subsidies for their servants.

Liu Ruyan is a stingy person. Not only did she not give them a penny as reward, she even deducted their monthly salary.

If these slaves had not been indentured to the Su family, they would have run away long ago and would not be suffering from poverty here.

Liu Ruyan stared at Nanny Yang's back as she left, feeling extremely angry.

"Humph, you are all a bunch of greedy people. Wait until my son is in high school, and see who dares to look down on me!"

Su Lanxin hurried forward and asked, "Mother, why did grandma ask you to go to Wanshou Pavilion?"

Liu Ruyan said coldly: "Maybe she wants me to wait for news with her."

"Then let's go quickly."

"Ah."

The mother and daughter went to Wanshou Pavilion together.

The old lady was kneeling on a cushion, worshipping the Buddha in front of her devoutly, mumbling scriptures, which no one else could understand.

Liu Ruyan and Su Lanxin stepped forward and bowed.

"Mother-in-law."

"grandmother."

The old lady did not open her eyes to look at them, but simply blamed them lightly: "Why did you come now? Why don't you kneel down and pray together, and bless Shenghao to be the top of the high school list."

When Liu Ruyan heard that she wanted to pray for her son, she immediately stepped forward and knelt down, but Su Lanxin pouted and looked reluctant.
