Reincarnated as the Abandoned Daughter of a Marquis's Mansion: I Take Control of My Life

Chapter 175 Su 1 is actually Su Yinyin's biological brother

The old lady nodded slightly, agreeing with Su Yinyin's assessment.

Upon hearing this, the Marquis's face turned deathly pale. "You unfilial daughter, you cannot speak such nonsense. How could Jian Guo be the son of a concubine?"

Su Yinyin looked directly into the Marquis's eyes, "If Your Excellency wishes to prove it, you can perform a blood test."

The Marquis was momentarily speechless. He knew the trickery involved and dared not actually perform a blood test. Su Jianguo was even more flustered, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Su Yinyin pressed her advantage, "Marquis, you're hesitating? Is there really something hidden?"

At this moment, the true heir, who had been silent all along, spoke up: "This matter concerns the reputation of the Marquis's mansion, and I hope that Grandmother will consider it carefully."

After weighing the pros and cons, the Marquis became enraged and pointed at the man, saying, "It's all because of you that I've been instigating this. I will never acknowledge you as my son. Forget about it! Guards, throw him out of here!"

The old lady also stood up. "Su Gaojie, if you dare to lay a finger on him, I will not let you off easily. He is my own grandson."

The beautiful woman standing nearby said, "Brother, he really is your son. My sister-in-law was fortunate enough to hold him when he was little and saw that mole. Besides, he looks very much like my sister-in-law!"

The Marquis, his face full of anger, pointed at the beautiful woman and said, "Sister-in-law, don't meddle so much. Just mind your own business."

"Big brother, you...!" The beautiful woman could only lower her head in grievance.

"Su Gaojie, you've gone too far! How dare you make veiled accusations against me? I'm not dead yet!" The old lady slammed her hand on the table in anger.

"Mother……!"

"Alright, Su Gaojie, now, immediately, give Yinyin's mother's dowry to Yinyin. And add the names of Su Yao, Su Yinyin, Yueyue, and Nian'an back to the family genealogy."

"Mother, do you really disregard your son's feelings and insist on doing things your own way?" The Marquis looked coldly at his mother.

The old lady snorted coldly, "Your feelings? Have you ever considered the feelings of others? For so many years, you have expelled the eldest son and eldest daughter from the family genealogy and allowed the concubines to bully the children left by the first wife."

He caused the death of his first wife, and left her children to wander outside. If they hadn't been lucky, they would have died long ago.

"What did your first wife ever do to you? For a mistress, a concubine, you did something utterly despicable. Now that the truth is out, you still show no remorse." The Marquis's face flushed red and then turned pale by her words.

The Marquis knew that the weight of filial piety weighed on his head, forcing him to bow his head.

He had no desire to acknowledge his children back, even though they shared his blood.

She told him she loved him, and he loved her too. A child born from the union of two people in love. That was their love.

The others were simply born out of necessity for the prosperity of the family line. But to him, these children were dispensable. Only Su Jianguo was the child he truly considered.

“Mother, it’s not impossible for me to recognize them. The position of heir apparent still belongs to Jian Guo. After they are recognized, we will immediately separate the family and they can live independently.”

Seeing this, Su Yinyin slowly walked up to the old lady and said softly but firmly, "Grandmother, Yinyin and her sisters are doing well outside and do not want to have any relationship with the Marquis or the Marquis's mansion. Please ask the Marquis to return my mother's dowry to me."

Su Yinyin made her stance clear. She had no desire to have anything to do with the Marquis's mansion. Even her grandmother's good intentions could not sway her resolve. She loathed everything about the Marquis's mansion.

Seeing her granddaughter's resolute attitude, Old Madam Qin knew that there was nothing she could do. But she didn't want to lose her grandson and granddaughter.

The old lady sighed and turned to the Marquis. "My lord, since Yinyin is so determined, you should return her mother's dowry to her first. As for the rest, we can discuss it later." Although the Marquis was unwilling, he could not disobey his mother's command and had no choice but to agree.

After receiving her dowry, Su Yinyin bowed to the old lady and said, "Grandmother, Yinyin bids farewell. Brother, you stay with Grandmother. The position of heir is yours; remember not to give it to him." Su Yinyin pointed at Su Jianguo.

After saying this, she turned and left with her younger sister. The old lady watched their departing figures, her eyes filled with disappointment.

Seeing this, the Duke also rose to take his leave. The old lady looked full of remorse and apologized repeatedly, saying it was all her fault.

As Su Jianguo watched Su Yinyin leave, he felt a chill on his neck.

He glanced at Su Yao again; he was incredibly handsome. Normally, he would have admired him. But now, he had no heart for it. He felt the position of heir apparent slowly slipping away from him.

If I'm no longer the heir apparent, my mother will look down on me even more. I was never as good as that person to begin with! What should I do, what should I do?

Su Yao comforted her, "Grandmother, my sisters have too many painful memories of this place. It's better if they don't live here."

"Grandmother knows, Grandmother has wronged them! You all grew up without a mother, and having a father is like not having one. Come with Grandmother, let's properly reorganize the inner quarters of the Marquis's mansion!"

The old lady still longed for the day Su Yin and the others would return to the Marquis's residence. Therefore, she decided on two steps: first, to reorganize the Marquis's residence; second, to bestow the title of heir to Su Yao. As for the Marquis, he could leave his father and keep his son.

Eliminating one could save the entire Marquis's mansion. Today, in her carriage, she observed Su Yinyin's every move. Su Yinyin spoke logically and methodically, taking each step with care. Had she not appeared in time, Su Yinyin would surely have presented evidence of the Marquis's plot to kill.

Then the entire Marquis's mansion would be completely ruined. She never expected that Su Yinyin, at such a young age, would be granted the title of Princess Anguo solely through her own abilities.

What an honor! Su Gaojie truly mistook a fish eye for a pearl. Aside from the children born to his first wife, the rest were utterly despicable. Especially this Su Jianguo, with his shifty eyes and sneaky appearance, he clearly didn't belong to the Su family line.

After leaving the Marquis's residence, Su Yue asked, "Sister, are we leaving like this?"

Su Yinyin patted her head. "Yes, it's just a temporary departure. We need to take things one step at a time. There's no rush. The position of heir of the Marquis's mansion will be handed over to Su Yao."

The woman standing beside my grandmother looked kind and gentle, but was she a ghost or a human? We'll see. As for the deep-seated hatred, we'll deal with that slowly; we're not in a hurry.

Su Yinyin followed her uncle back to the Su residence. On the way, the Duke chuckled, "The old lady's timely appearance today, is it a coincidence? That Su Yao, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?"

Su Yinyin said with a smile, "Uncle, of course you've met him. He is Su Yi."
