When the dock workers heard Su Wan cry so pitifully , all of them looked at Su Bai disgust flashing in their eyes , they couldn't believe how shameless this man can be not only did he sold his daughter , yet he came here to cause trouble at her restaurant which now belonged to her ? Everyone knew that a married daughter was like spilled water anything that she takes with her , no longer belonged to her natal home .

So , how could he as a father still insist that he was still the boss of the restaurant , and he even went as far as to steal from the restaurant when it was clearly his own son in law who was in charge of it now. The dock workers have seen Lin Yan coming here every day and he was also the one who worked hard in the restaurant from morning till evening , his wife rarely came to the town .

It was clear from this alone that Su Wan has given the restaurant to Lin Yan to take care and yet this shameless man actually stole the earnings of his own son in law ? Was he trying to kill his daughter ? With such a taint how will this young lady raise her head in front of her husband ? ( Su Wan : I will live with my head raised please and thank you , There is no man born who can make me bow in front of him )

Su Wan however didn't just stop there instead she raised her voice and buried her face in her hands crying even loudly " you say you are my father and I'm unfilial, right ? Then can you tell me how I was unfilial ? When my mother passed away you didn't even wait for an year for her mourning period to pass and married a new woman . Everyone here knows how a girl's life becomes after a step mother marries in her house , I have cooked for you , collected weed from the forest and I have even harvested the grains in the fields , what have I not done ? While Su Cheng and Su Lan only knew how to eat and sleep ! You call me unfilial ?"

Su Wan didn't care about being called unfilial but the truth was that after everything that the original owner did for the Su family , it would be a shame to call the Su Family a family of beasts , in fact even all the beasts would hang their heads in shame if she compared the Su family with them . She knew that either Su Lan or Su Cheng might have prodded Su Bai and asked him to get the restaurant back now that it was doing well - her heart was inclined into believing that it was Su Cheng as he alone lived in the town and new what went and goes here - there was also Surname Zheng .

Awesome , does that bastard Su Cheng thinks that if he hides his hideous and hypocritical face at home , she won't be able to do anything ? Didn't he act like he despised money and was above all ? Then she will show how good this Su Cheng was !

As she thought about it Su Wan raised her head , sparkling tears shimmering in her eyes " you say I am unfilial but Haven't I given my mother's dowry to you for so many years to take care of ?All the revenue it generated for all these years , you took it away and I didn't ask but you still sold me for ten taels saying that Su Cheng doesn't have any money to continue with his study ! You tell me how much revenue the shops generated and how much did you used ? That you had no money to send Su Cheng to school and had to sell me ? If the revenue match I will not say a word and continue to be filial but if it doesn't don't blame me for being odds with Su Cheng and the Su family ! Because of him I am already a shared wife ! I have five husbands to answer to yet you have to embarrass me like this in front of my husband !"

After being rebuked by Su Wan , Su Bai 's face turned pale . However , he couldn't refute her claims and couldn't answer her questions - there was nothing he could use to defend himself with . Su Wan was right . All the revenue that Shen Shui's shop generated were taken away by him and Chu Yin , nothing ended in Su Wan's hands . With the revenue that these shops generated , Su Wan has long returned the money that Su Bai actually spent on her .

And the revenue was great as well , but the thing was Su Bai was a big spender and Chu Yin under the comforts and laid back lifestyle too became a spendthrift , she would also send a lot of money to her natal home and subsidised them . It had been like this for so long , but now without these shops the earnings have declined while the expenses remained the same .

When Su Bai saw that the restaurant was doing good he thought it was Su Wan who came up with new dishes - he even felt resentful that she didn't show her talent a little earlier or he wouldn't have sold her so soon , he would have made her work until Su Lan and Su Cheng were married .

The dock workers were stunned then hurriedly they too started whispering , discussing the new found information .

"Oh God how can there be such a brother ? He let his father sell his sister so that he can continue with studies ? I would rather give up on my studies than sell my sister "

" humph , what do you know that boy is the half brother - weren't you listening ? The boy was born of the second wife of course he won't care what happened to this sister of his - "

" what's the point of studying books alone ? If one can't even act human - selling his sister to continue on with his studies ? Pei - what a scholar he will be !"

" Su Cheng - Su Cheng ! Oh I have heard of him , the boy has been trying to become a Tongsheng for two years , but couldn't even pass once "

" no talent , I say if he is useless he should have stayed at home rather than selling his sister "

" Shut up ! Shut up ! What do you know ? Its me I was the one who sold her , it didn't even concern my son . He had no idea - you watch your mouth or else I will shut it for you " Su Bai jumped up as he shouted his jowls quivering . His eyes popped and he looked quite demented like a mad dog who liked to bite anyone -Su Wan had once seen it in her last life .

Everyone knew that scholars most valued reputation if their reputation was lost everything was lost , that's why Su Wan dared to pulled Su Cheng in the argument , she too wanted to see how much Su Bai loved this son - and surely he didn't disappoint her , Su Bai loved Su Cheng much more than he ever loved Su Wan - just look at this he even took the title of a greedy father for his son , who was selfish enough to be the first one who run away from his family . Did Su Bai thinks that Su Cheng stayed at the town because he wanted to study in extra classes ? No , Su Cheng stayed at the academy because he resented his village background , living with the high profile kids he wanted to be a rich man 's son too but in the end he was a son of a good for nothing , who relied on his wife's dowry .

Su Cheng didn't return home many times but Every-time he returned Su Wan was made to serve him , she will change his clothes and washed them , and as the person washing Su Cheng 's clothes she naturally smelled the rose scent and rogue , the previous Su Wan didn't understand what it meant but Su Wan did , she knew that Su Cheng was visiting the brothel instead of studying seriously - even though he knew that his sister was going to get sold because of his studies , he still didn't pick up his slack , instead before the Previous Su Wan died , Su Wan saw Su Cheng and just like every other time his clothes smelled of rogue - Su Wan despised such men , who took everything for granted .

Su Cheng was a total scum but then again he was born because of two scums , they deserved each other !
