Wang Lie sighed and said nothing more.

He felt that Su An had been kneeling for a quarter of an hour and had shown an attitude of admitting his mistake, so he should be let in.

After all, he had a close friendship with Marquis Shenwei, and these children were close when they were young.

However, Mrs. Han and he only had a pair of children. Mrs. Han doted on her youngest son, Wang Wu, and valued him more than anything else.

On the day when Wang Wu was severely beaten and carried back home, Madam Han did not come to the door to fight because he had stopped her. Now she would never forgive Su An easily.

At this time, Wang Shishi rushed in hurriedly.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You're a girl and you don't know how to behave yourself." Mrs. Han frowned and lectured.

"Dad, Mom, please let him in." Wang Shishi pleaded.

"Have you forgotten how your brother was carried back?" Mrs. Han said coldly.

"But he has been kneeling in the sun for so long, his back is covered in blood," said Wang Shishi.

"You girl...you are going to piss me off to death. You are not standing by your brother, but you are always turning your elbow outward." Mrs. Han scolded.

"Okay, okay, you two should stop talking." Wang Lie came out to smooth things over.

Wang Shishi couldn't convince Mrs. Han and could only sit aside helplessly. When she thought of Su An still kneeling outside, she felt sad and distressed.

Time passed minute by minute, and Su An had been kneeling outside the General of Cavalry's mansion for half an hour.

In this life, Su An had not yet started practicing martial arts, and he had been addicted to eating, drinking and having fun, so his physical fitness was very average.

Kneeling on the hard steps in front of the general's mansion, he was exposed to the midsummer sun.

Su An felt dizzy and his legs were trembling slightly.

However, he always kept his back straight and never bent.

The blood from the wound on the back had formed into a scab, covering most of the back, making him look quite miserable.

In order to show his sincerity in admitting his mistake, Su An chose thorny branches, and not just one or two, but a whole bundle.

"Should we go and help the prince up?" A servant at the door felt a little uncomfortable watching this and quietly asked the steward beside him.

"Madam said that we are not allowed to act without her order." The steward sighed.

In the carriage, Su Wan looked at Su An's figure through the window with a complicated expression and clenched her fists quietly.

What Su Wan didn't expect was that Su An, who had always been lazy and gluttonous, could persist in kneeling under the scorching sun for so long.

He is not himself. As a martial artist with a strong physique, he is just an ordinary person.

The lobby of the General of Cavalry's Mansion.

"It's already half an hour, let Xiao An come in." Wang Lie sighed.

Mrs. Han frowned and remained silent, but she also began to feel relieved.

After all, they were the children she had watched grow up, and she often protected her two children when they were young.

But when she thought of her youngest son's miserable appearance, her heart hardened again.

"The fact that Xiao An can do this shows that he really realizes his mistake and sincerely wants to admit it to us." Wang Lie said.

If Su An just came with a bunch of gifts to apologize, not to mention Madam Han, even he would not let Su An into the house.

If they accepted the gifts and forgave Su An, others might say that they were greedy for the power and treasures of the Shenwei Marquis' Mansion, and could easily forgive the culprit who severely injured their own son.

But Su An, a usually lazy child, was at the age of full of vigor and vitality and could not care about his own face. He knelt with his upper body naked in front of the gate for half an hour in full view of everyone.

Wang Lie felt that this sincerity was enough and he should let them in, otherwise people would think that they had no regard for their friendship at all.

"Xiao Wu, tell your mother if you are willing to forgive him?" Mrs. Han looked at her youngest son, who was sitting aside fiddling with a vase and couldn't keep quiet for a moment.

Wang Wu was a teenage boy, slightly dark-skinned. Unlike his sister who was delicate and pretty in white, he was dressed very casually, with various scratches and dirty marks on his clothes.

Wang Wuren is not considered strong, but he is very tough and looks like the type that can take a lot of beatings.

"I can't forgive you. We've been brothers for so long, and he hit me for a woman." Wang Wu slammed the table, his face full of indignation.

"If he hadn't protected you when you were a child, how many beatings would you have received? One should be grateful and repay kindness." Wang Shishi was unhappy.

Wang Wu was also conflicted when he heard this, but he finally curled his lips and said, "Then let him in, but I can't forgive him. He actually beat me for a woman."

Mrs. Han wanted to say something else.

"Just consider it for Xiao An's mother's sake." Wang Lie said.

Mrs. Han stopped talking immediately, sighed, and finally softened her heart.

"Then let him in."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Shishi couldn't wait to run out, and Wang Wu followed her out.

At the door, the brother and sister saw Su An kneeling in the scorching sun, his body shaky.

Su An's hair had long been wet with sweat, and his face and body were covered in sweat. In order to prevent the sweat from entering his eyes, he closed his eyes.

His face was red and hot because of being exposed to the sun.

Su Wan stood beside Su An, with the guards of the mansion and servants holding gift boxes behind her.

"Brother Su An, please get up quickly. My mother has agreed to let you in." Wang Shishi hurried forward and carefully helped Su An up.

This action pulled the thorns on Su An's back, and the sharp spikes cut through the skin and the coagulated blood scabs, and blood immediately flowed out.

Su Wan stepped forward and took down the thorn branch.

Wang Shishi looked at Su An's back and felt uncomfortable.

Su An looked very weak. If Wang Shishi hadn't supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.

"Sister, please help Brother Su An in quickly." Wang Wu looked at this scene and his anger subsided a lot.

Su Wan put a piece of clothing on Su An, and Wang Shishi helped him into the house and into the lobby.

Su An is already a married man.

Mrs. Han saw her daughter supporting him and was about to scold him, but then she saw Su An's appearance, especially Wang Shishi lifting up her clothes to reveal her back.

She tightened her grip around the handkerchief.

"Hurry up and help Xiao An into the room to treat his wound."

Mrs. Han was not a heartless person. If it weren't for the beating of Wang Wu, Su An would still be her own child in her heart. Seeing Su An's miserable appearance, she felt a little distressed.

Wang Shishi ordered the servants to prepare some healing medicine, cold water and towels, and helped Su An into the side room.

Su Wan stayed in the lobby and chatted with Wang Lie and his wife.

"Su An has already realized his mistake, so on the first day of his wedding, he went to Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang to confess his mistake and apologize."

"This is the apology he prepared specifically for Xiao Wu."

The servant of the Marquis's Mansion came forward and presented three jade boxes filled with rare treasures.

"Niece, please take these things back." Wang Lie said.

Mrs. Han also nodded. After all, what they cared about was Su An's attitude of admitting his mistakes.

In their opinion, it was enough that Su An sincerely admitted his mistakes and corrected them.

These three natural treasures are indeed precious, but the Marquis's Mansion is now full of children at home, and it is difficult for them as elders to accept them.

"He told me that if you do something wrong you have to pay the price. Your niece also hopes that Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang can give him this opportunity to make up for his mistakes to some extent." Su Wan said seriously.

"Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang, please accept these compensations."

Now that things have come to this, Wang Lie no longer refuses. The two families have a close relationship, and pushing it back and forth would make things seem awkward.

Later, Su Wan chatted with Wang Lie and his wife. Wang Lie and his wife, acting as elders, asked about Su Wan and Su An's recent situation and showed concern for their health and cultivation.

The three of them did not mention the incident of Su An beating Wang Wu again. This was sending a signal that the matter was over and the two families had reconciled.
