Chapter 1864 The Most Beautiful Woman in the World 1

Along the way, no one from the second, third, and fourth rooms dared to provoke Su Yan. Anyone who provoked her would be scolded.

All the superficial efforts that women used to put in at home were useless to Su Yan.

For example, Su Mei'e is now dragging Su Rongrong to find Su Yan to argue.

"Su Yan, you're going too far. Rongrong is your sister after all, and you're going to let her eat the same food as those servants every day?"

Su Yan glanced at her coldly, only to see Su Rongrong looking like she had been wronged but dared not speak out.

Su Yan smiled and said, "Do you think the servants eat poorly? Do you know how many people can't afford to eat and have no clothes to wear? She should be grateful for my kindness that she can eat the same rice as the servants, otherwise I would have sent them back to Dongling long ago."

"Why? She is also the daughter of the Su family. It is not your turn to abuse her."

Su Yan chuckled when he heard that.

"Do you know whose money is being used for your expenses now? You don't think it's from the public treasury, do you? That was my mother's dowry. Do you still think the Su family is rich now? Do you need me to explain how much your second, third, and fourth rooms have taken advantage of my first room? I'm telling you, today I, Su Yan, will not be a sucker again. Everything will be done according to the public treasury's conventions. As for Su Rongrong wanting to eat good food, she can buy it with her private money. I'm not stopping her from spending money."

"Why do you say that it was all your mother's dowry? Hasn't the Su family had any income of its own over the years?"

"Haha, the Su family does have income, but it's just not enough to cover expenses. If you don't believe me, go back and ask your mother."

Then Su Yan took out another account book and threw it in front of Su Mei'e, saying contemptuously: "This is the Su family's expense account book. Take it and have a look. If your monthly salary is gone in the future, I will let my father divide the family when we return to Beijing."

The Su family wanted the best of everything, and the monthly salary drawn by each household had already exceeded the usual amount.

They thought the Su family was very rich. All these years of social interactions and building connections cost money. The Su family's income was no longer enough for this group of people to squander.

It was because Su Yan's mother was good at business that she was able to increase her dowry several times. In the past, she always thought that she only had one daughter, so she treated people from other families with preferential treatment, hoping that they could take better care of her daughter.

As a result, when disaster struck, no one said a word for her.

When the bandits dragged the original owner out, no one stood up to protect her or plead for her.

Everyone just hoped that they would not be affected, and hid behind in fear.

After Su Yan came back, they didn't come to care about her. They even felt that her temperament had changed drastically. No one was willing to come and talk to her, fearing that they would be contaminated by bad luck, and they avoided her like the plague.

Some people even said privately that she might have gone crazy because her body and innocence had been ruined.

They didn't care whether she was okay or not, they just assumed the worst.

Because she is not their daughter, they would never put themselves in Su Yan's shoes and feel sorry for her.

They are a bunch of ungrateful people, Su Yan will not tolerate them, no matter what they think, she just wants everyone to be unhappy, and then she will be happy.

Su Mei'e couldn't do it, so she took the account book back and looked at it carefully.

After she finished reading it, she realized that the Su family had been living beyond their means for many years, and that they were able to live a life of luxury thanks to their aunt's subsidy for the household expenses.

When Su Mei'e's mother heard that Su Mei'e had stood up for Su Rongrong, she pointed at her head and scolded her, "Why did you meddle in the affairs of the first house? Now it's just an excuse for Su Yan to take back everyone's monthly allowance. Everyone in the third and fourth houses will blame you in the future."

"How do I know that the Su family's business has not been as good as before in recent years?"

"Do you think that just a concubine like Liu can manage such a large Su family? Isn't it because everyone knows that this is a hot potato that no one is fighting for it?"

"I...I...how would I know."

"From now on, spend less time with Su Rongrong. She's not as simple as you think. You're the most clueless of the Su family members. You're trying to help others. If you're really sold out, you'll still be counting the money for them."
