Chapter 91: The brother-in-law takes advantage of his power and the bully is not afraid of the powerful
Where did this sissy come from?
Sun Shaozong looked at the pretty boy in confusion, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him, let alone offend him.
Although he was completely confused, Sun Shaozong still reached out to stop the pretty boy and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Although I don't know who you are, there is one thing I need to clarify first. Today I want to discuss something with Brother Lian, but I didn't accept anyone's invitation."
Even if he hadn't come to ask Jia Lian for help today, he wouldn't have let others bear the injustice for no reason.
The pretty boy's expression softened a little, and he turned around and bowed to everyone in the pavilion, saying, "If that's really the case, I'd like to apologize to everyone first."
Jia Lian, Xue Pan and Feng Ziying also hurriedly stood up and returned the greeting.
Jia Lian was about to say something with a smile on his face, but the pretty boy suddenly changed the subject and pointed at Sun Shaozong and said unceremoniously: "But if this fellow is here, I still have to leave, otherwise my brother will have a hard time explaining it!"
This was clearly intended to force Jia Lian and the other two to choose between him and Sun Shaozong!
"Ruolan."
Jia Lian looked embarrassed and forced a smile, saying, "Your brother and Sun Canling have a grudge, but what does it have to do with Erlang? I think..."
"Second Brother Lian."
The pretty boy didn't give him face at all. He flicked his sleeves and added stiffly, "If my brother-in-law knew that I sat at the same table with such a person, he would be angry. Should I leave or should he leave? Just give me a straight answer, Second Brother Lian!"
This sissy is so arrogant!
However, he did have the capital to be arrogant - after listening to Jia Lian's words just now, Sun Shaozong had already guessed that he was Wei Rushong's younger brother and King Beijing's brother-in-law Wei Ruolan.
Wei Rushong is fine, he is now just the commander of the right guard of the patrol camp and the deputy of the Shenwu General Feng Tang.
But the Prince of Beijing is the head of the four kings and eight dukes, a true leader of the nobles. Not to mention now, even when the Rongguo Mansion was at its peak, he was still a head shorter than him.
Therefore, when Wei Ruolan mentioned "brother-in-law", she was actually using her power to put pressure on others!
Seeing that Jia Lian's face was becoming more and more conflicted, and when he occasionally looked at him, his eyes were full of flickering and shame, Sun Shaozong knew that he had already made a choice in his heart.
Alas~
They usually call each other brothers, but they can't even pass this small test. It seems that Jia Lian is really not a good friend!
"hehe……"
Without waiting for Jia Lian to start to chase them away, Sun Shaozong sneered twice and said disdainfully: "Second brother, don't be embarrassed. I, Sun Shaozong, am a man of integrity. How can I associate with a child who calls me 'brother' when he opens his mouth and 'brother-in-law' when he closes his mouth?"
As he spoke, his eagle-like gaze fixed on Wei Ruolan's face: "Mr. Wei, please be more polite next time. Your brother only lost two front teeth that day. If I had punched him like that, Mr. Wei's face would have turned into a pancake!"
Sun Shaozu was certainly very angry after being laughed at in public for being "cowardly" that day, but Wei Rushong didn't gain any benefits either. His two front teeth were knocked out by a punch from his cheap elder brother, and he still speaks incoherently.
If not for this, Wei Ruolan wouldn't have to embarrass Sun Shaozong today.
"you you you……"
Wei Ruolan's eyebrows raised, and she was about to say something rude, but when she met Sun Shaozong's murderous eyes, her tongue suddenly became limp, and she only said "you" a few times, and then said nothing else.
"Goodbye!"
Sun Shaozong then bowed leisurely, turned around and left proudly.
“Wait!”
At this moment, Xue Pan came out of the pavilion quickly, with a dark face, and shouted: "Second brother, please stay! Since I'm the one who arranged this banquet, it's up to me, Xue Pan, to decide who stays and who leaves!"
As he said this, he went forward and pulled Sun Shaozong to the seat.
Wei Ruolan and Jia Lian beside them both changed color, and Wei Ruolan said angrily: "Xue Dabo, what do you mean by this?!"
"Means nothing!"
Xue Pan stiffened his neck and said sharply, "Although I am a man of no ability, I prefer to sit at the same table with those who are capable! Since you keep mentioning 'brother' and 'brother-in-law', why don't you just go back to have a family dinner? There are no good relatives of yours, Young Master Wei, at my table!"
Wei Ruolan's neck turned red after hearing these words. She pointed at Xue Pan with gritted teeth and said, "You big-headed Xue, just wait and see what I will do in the future..."
However, before he could finish his words, Feng Ziying also came out of the pavilion and said loudly: "Brother Sun, come and try this fish. Xue Dabo and I caught it at Lugou Bridge yesterday!"
Although these words are not as straightforward as what Xue Pan said, they also express support for Sun Shaozong!
Wei Ruolan was so angry that she was shaking like a sieve. After a long while, she stamped her feet and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I, Wei Ruolan, will remember this day!"
Having said that, he walked out breathlessly.
This time, no matter how hard Jia Lian tried to persuade her, Wei Ruolan never stopped.
To be honest, the status of Xue Pan and Feng Ziying in Sun Shaozong's heart was far inferior to Jia Lian before. But after what happened just now, the ranking of the three in Sun Shaozong's heart has completely changed!
But Sun Shaozong, surrounded by Xue Pan and Feng Ziying, sat down in the seat originally occupied by Wei Ruolan. He saw Jia Lian come back to the table with a bitter face and scolded him unhappily: "Wenlong [Xue Pan's courtesy name is Wenlong], this is a good thing to do, why do you have to provoke him? Is his brother-in-law, Prince Beijing, someone you would like to have a chance to deal with?"
"What can you do if you provoke him?"
Xue Pan was originally very respectful to Jia Lian and Baoyu because he was staying at the Jia Mansion. But today, he was acting in an uncharacteristic way and sneered, "He is the brother-in-law of Prince Beijing, and I, Xue Pan, am the son-in-law of the Minister of Personnel!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Everyone present knew that he had been worrying about this marriage for a long time, but he suddenly changed his mind today.
Sun Shaozong asked in surprise: "How did you suddenly figure it out?"
"It's all because of the He family!"
Xue Pan was not shy about it and said angrily, "They said he was involved in some conspiracy case, but who has confirmed it? My sister... Well, in my opinion, maybe her family was slaughtered like a fat pig because they were too ostentatious and had no strong backing!"
"Originally, I came to find this Wei Ruolan because he works for the Dragon Guards, and I wanted to find out what happened - but who knew that since he became my brother-in-law, he has become even more of a nobody!"
As he said that, he slammed the table and said angrily: "I am too lazy to ask any more questions! Isn't she just a woman? Can't my fists as big as vinegar pots subdue this bitch?!"
Unexpectedly, the tragic case of the entire He family being executed would lead to this "happy marriage".
However, with Xue Pan's knowledge, he probably couldn't think of so many nonsense. These words were definitely what Xue Baochai meant!
