Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 19: The Extreme Bias of the Su Family

"Fine, then I’ll leave!" Su Yijia wasn’t going to indulge her just because she was the original host’s biological mother. She turned and started to leave, taking the people she brought with her. As she was about the reached the stairs, she suddenly turned back.

"Oh, by the way, if I leave, Su Xinyue can also forget about marrying with Qin Mingcheng. You can go and ask around there’s any family willing to let their sons marry a woman who, on her sister’s wedding night, slept with her sister’s husband, and maybe even got pregnant by this guy. I don’t think anyone would want that."

"Oh my god! Has Su Xinyue really done that!"

The people who had gathered at the door to watch the commotion couldn’t believe their ears; they never expected to hear such scandalous gossip. Su’s mother was so angry that her body swayed for a moment, and she had to grab onto the door frame to steady herself.

Pointing at Su Yijia, she scolded loudly, "You beast! How dare you falsely slander your sister like this? Have you no shame as an older sister?"

"Mom, let sister come in first."

Su Xinyue, who had been hiding behind, was so scared that face turned pale. She hurriedly tugged on Su’s mother’s clothes.

Su’s mother clenched her teeth and said, "Why are you just standing there like a fool? Get your ass inside quickly!"

"Sorry, I just don’t know how to use my ass to walk inside, how about letting Su Xinyue show me how it’s done?" Su Yijia shrugged.

Qin’s parents were so agitated that they almost wanted to see her get into a fight with her own biological parents. This would surely make Xia Weiguo see how difficult Qin Kaize’s wife was. That way, he wouldn’t trust her to keep Qin Kaize to herself, and they might even be able to get Qin Kaize’s money in the end.

They had asked around, and patients like Qin Kaize in such condition would received several thousand yuan in compensation, plus a monthly allowance of over twenty yuan. Coupons were also not inconsiderable.

Benefits might be out of reach for now, but they couldn’t be getting not a single dime. How could they spend money and effort on them in turn?

But when they turned to look at Xia Weiguo, they found that his face was not filled with disgust; instead, it was full of pity.

Looking at Su’s mother and Su Xinyue, Xia Weiguo’s gaze was filled with suppressed anger. It seemed as if he was about to scold them in the next second.

"Is it only you who knows how to talk back? Do you even see me as your mother?" Su’s mother, seeing that Su Yijia was standing still and not moving, had to come over and pull her. She tried to yank her hand, but Su Yijia held onto her wrist with a force so strong that she couldn’t move an inch.

Su Yijia smirked and said, "Of course, I don’t! Didn’t you say that a married daughter is like spilled water? When you married me off, you didn’t want to take any responsibility and just gave me five yuan as dowry. Do you consider me as your daughter at that time? Now that you want to control me, you suddenly become my mother again?"

Marriage wasn’t just a matter of accepting the groom’s dowry; the bride’s dowry also needed to be considered. Su’s family wasn’t well-off, but they still was able to provide a quilt and two sets of clothes for their daughter. When the original host married into the Su family, apart from the wedding dress that was bought by Qin Mingcheng to deceive her, she had only a small bundle of belongings with her.

Toothbrushes, towels, and even underwear were all used ones. She had but only undergarments and one single set of clothes. The rest were all confiscated by Su’s mother.

Of course, Su Xinyue would never wear the clothes that Su Yijia left behind. Her mother said they were for her cousin in her uncle’s family.

If it weren’t for the fact that the original host and Su’s mother shared a similar look, Su Yijia would have doubted whether she was an adopted child. She couldn’t understand the original host’s parents.

It wouldn’t be fair if labeling them with "bad parents". No matter what, they borrowed money and managed to have her finished high school.

In these two years, many people had offered a high bride price to try to marry the original host. Although they were tempted, they always asked for her opinion, and had never forced her if she didn’t want it.

However, sometimes they were unreasonable and mistreated the original host, especially when it came to arguments between the original host and her sister Su Xinyue. Even when Su Xinyue was clearly in the wrong, as long as she shed a few tears and acted cute, it would all become the original host’s fault.

"You brat, how dare you speak like this! If there’s anything, we’ll discuss it when we get home!" Su’s mother was in a hurry and had to use her other hand to pull Su Yijia.

With suspicion in her heart, Su Yijia allowed herself to be pulled back to the Su family home by her mother.

Just as Xia Weiguo was about to follow, Su’s mother blocked the doorway. "I’m sorry, today’s events happened too suddenly. We need to discuss this at home first. Please come back tomorrow."

"I’ll wait right here. Whenever your family finishes discussing, we can talk," Xia Weiguo said calmly, giving off a sense of authority without anger.

Su’s mother was so frightened that she couldn’t look directly at him but still wanted to push him away.

Su Yijia interjected, "Since I’m married to Kaize now, we’re a unit. He also needs to be present when it comes to my matters."

Su’s mother didn’t want to acknowledge this son-in-law at all, but when she thought about what Xinyue had said last night, she silently closed her mouth. She could only watch as Su Yijia pushed the paralyzed man into the house.

Reluctantly, she closed the door and turned around, trying to slap Su Yijia on the head with her palm. However, Su Yijia, as if she had eyes on the back, tilted her head slightly and avoided it.

"You’re my mother, so I can’t hit you, but think about whether Xinyue can handle a beating. If you don’t mind her getting her hands or feet broken by me, you can try hitting me again."

Her cold and unfeeling threat sent shivers down the spines of the Su family members. Su’s father glared at Su’s mother and said, "Have you had enough of this commotion? What’s done is done; let’s talk about what needs to be discussed."

Su’s mother and Su Xinyue lowered their heads and could only sit down next to him.

"Su Yijia, how can you call yourself a sister when you’ve allowed your younger sister to be mistreated in your husband’s family?" Su’s mother was very satisfied with Qin Mingcheng as a son-in-law, only if he didn’t marry her older daughter. Now that her younger daughter was about to marry to the same person, how could the they hold their heads up high?

"If she regarded me as her sister, she wouldn’t have plotted against me with her lover, let alone drugged me. Her legs are attached to her own body. Why didn’t you, as her parents, take her away yesterday? She didn’t return home at night. Why didn’t you come to the Qin family to find her?" Su Yijia couldn’t make sense of the actions of her family. She even suspected that they might have been involved in the scheme.

Su’s mother didn’t answer her question but shot Su Xinyue a stern look. The night before the wedding banquet at the Qin family, their younger daughter had said she was going to a classmate’s house to play. She knew the girl and thought nothing of it since she had often visited their home in the past. Little did she know that her daughter would boldly do something that would lead to her being captured and exposed.

"Yijia, as the older sister, you should be more understanding of your younger sister. In the future, when we are no longer around, you two sisters should support each other. How can there be any lingering resentment?" Su’s father looked briefly at the cold and intense gaze of Qin Kaize, then quickly withdrew his gaze and earnestly advised Su Yijia.
