Su Erlang clenched his fists and said, "It was my idea and my father's. Grandpa didn't know!"
Su Can was stunned.
Su Erlang lowered his eyes and gritted his teeth. "Grandpa just… sent Yu Niang away with Eldest Brother. I was filled with hatred, so I thought of a way with Father to avenge the Su family."
With that, he turned around and knelt down in front of Old Master Su.
"Grandpa, I was the one who came up with the idea. Punish me!"
When Su Can saw his son kneeling, he also reacted and knelt beside his son. He said to Old Master Su, "No, no, no, Father, it was my idea! You punish me! Erlang has been weak since he was young and almost died a few times. He can't withstand our family rules!"
The father and son echoed each other and removed Old Master Su from blame completely.
Old Master Su was the head of the Su family and was the most respected figure in the surrounding villages.
