Such a Su Xian’er made Su Yue’er increasingly angry!
She opened her mouth to scold her, but she swallowed it back. "Haha, are you the sa kind as that damn girl Su Xi’er? Seeing down and out, do you also want to kick ? Fine, very fine! Co on, let’s see who laughs last!"
"What are you talking about, second cousin? Xian’er cannot understand a word!"
Su Xian’er blinked in surprise: "Second cousin, you’ve suffered so much, if anything Xian’er is heartbroken over it, how could I kick you? We’re beloved cousins...you can’t draw two Su’s with one stroke!"
"Get out, get out! You’re not welco in my room. Get out!"
Her words were very familiar to Su Yue’er, and on second thought, she realized these were words she herself had used to bamboozle her cousins before. It made her feel embarrassed, frustrated and angry!
She had always known that among the cousins in the Su family, the most manipulative one was the Su Xian’er right in front of her! And the most foolish one was that damn girl, Su Pan’er!
How had things changed covertly, when she had been unaware!
This damn girl was returning her own tricks back on her!
So furious and embarrassed, Su Yue’er couldn’t help but pick up the palm-leaf fan next to her, and chased after Su Xian’er.
Su Xian’er chuckled and turned to glide out of the room, shutting the door with a bang, nearly catching Su Yue’er’s arm.
"Second cousin, it was grandfather who asked to call you. I had already delivered the ssage, rember to go there early!"
Su Xian’er’s words still echoed from outside the door.
Su Yue’er was instantly furious!
She yanked the door open and hurled her fan. "Get out!--"
But the door was already empty, Su Xian’er’s figure was nowhere to be found.
"Hee hee, haha... "
Just as Su Yue’er was stupefied, Su Xian’er’s laughter ca from the end of the famous pavilion: "Second Cousin, don’t be so angry, careful you get pimples on your face and ruin your pretty features! Hee hee!"
The laughter was especially grating to Su Yue’er’s ears, she couldn’t help but roar in anger!
"Su Xian’er!"
But Su Xian’er had already turned and left.
Left alone, Su Yue’er was seething, venting her anger by wrecking everything in sight.
Su Xian’er tucked her head back around the corner and smiled softly.
Huh!
Oh, Su Yue’er, Su Yue’er, everything you owe , I, Su Xian’er, will slowly take back!
All these years, I have been humble, obedient, and manipulated by you, thinking that we cousins should be united, like a family.
And you? How did you treat , Su Pan’er?
Feigning sisterly love while leaving to die at the critical mont!
Now, I understand who really cares for in this world, who I can truly trust.
You want to use again? Ha! Dream on!
Unable to vent her anger on Su Xian’er, Su Yue’er was even more aggravated. She had almost smashed everything in sight to pieces and gasping for air, she randomly grabbed a chair and sat down.
As coldness flashed in her eyes, a fluttering sound echoed.
"Coo-coo..."
A courier pigeon had appeared on the windowsill.
A courier pigeon?
Su Yue’er quickly ca forward to grab it and, upon close inspection, noticed a note tied to the pigeon’s leg.
She slowly unfolded it, carefully perused it, and her eyes sparkled at once, suddenly bursting into uproarious laughter like a madwoman!
The two maidservants, huddled in fear, shivered uncontrollably and didn’t dare to raise their heads.
It took a while for Su Yue’er to stop her insane laughter, feeling exceptionally pleased in her heart.
"Su Pan’er, you just wait! I suppose you never dread that I, Su Yue’er, would get another chance. Just wait and watch! In so days, you’ll get your just deserts."
Yesterday, Su Pan’er had sent a ssage through her mother to her grandfather. She originally thought that Su Yue’er would be at her place early this morning. However, instead of waiting for Su Yue’er, she ended up waiting for her own father, Su Lao Si!
The whole Qin family had just begun to enjoy their breakfast when Su Lao Si ca rushing in with a darkened face. He grabbed Su Pan’er’s hand and tried to drag her out of the ho.
"Quick! Pan’er, pack your things and let’s go with father. Let’s go, we are returning to the Su family!"
Instinctively resisting, Su Pan’er said: "Father, what are you doing? Why do you want to take back to the Su family? What am I supposed to do there?"
At that point, the face of Qin Yi abruptly changed!
Hastily getting up to stop him, he said "Father-in-law, if there is any negligence on my part that prompted you to take Pan’er back to Su Family? She is a person of my Qin Yi while alive, and upon death, she would beco a ghost of my Qin Family. Father-in-law, you..."
"What are you blabbering about? When did I say that I want to take Pan’er back to the Su family?"
Stupefied, Su Lao Si suddenly realized his abruptness and his face turned a deep red!
It took him a while to snap out of his blush and yell: "This is not what you think! It’s ... I am ... Oh god! Pan’er her grandfather fell ill because of his old disease last night, I want her to return to the Su family to treat him!"
Oh!
So, they were not planning on divorcing!
Everyone sighed with relief as their hearts-wrenched fear finally receded.
Feeling relieved, Su Pan’er breathed a sigh of relief.
The next mont, however, her heart leapt into her throat again: "What happened to grandfather? Wasn’t he still in good health a couple of days ago? How did he suddenly fall ill? Are there any symptoms, so I could prepare the right dicines?"
"Just, just.... There was so incident yesterday night, your grandpa started feeling uncomfortable. I didn’t expect..."
Stuttering and hesitant, Su Lao Si found it hard to explain the embarrassing situation.
Considering the circumstances, it appeared that he had a heart attack due to anxiety! No wonder, given the old man’s age, and facing a situation like Su Sikong’s, he must be overwhelmingly distressed.
Having a plan in her heart, Su Pan’er imdiately returned to her room to take a dicine box and dicinal ingredients, then urgently rushed towards the Su family.
Qin Yi hurriedly chased after her, shouting out loud!
"Pan’er, Horse,...horse, riding a horse would be faster!"
Right! The more anxious, the more mistakes one makes! She completely forgot that riding a horse would be much faster!
They both quickly mounted their horses and galloped toward the Su family ho.
The incident with Su Hai losing consciousness was discovered when Su Lao Si returned ho from pulling weeds early in the morning and found that his father was not around. Searching in his room, he noticed that his father was lying in bed and was unresponsive no matter how loud he shouted.
Su Pan’er made a move and in no ti at all, Su Hai ca back to his senses.
It was clear that he was still sowhat dazed about his own condition, and showed a look of surprise upon seeing Su Pan’er right in front of him.
"Grandfather, don’t worry, everything will be alright with Pan’er here!"
Her words clearly had a calming effect on Su Hai, causing him to relax slowly.
Su Pan’er put away her silver needles and took a handful of dicine, handing it to her second aunt: "Second aunt, please boil this dicine as fast as you can, simr down three bowls of water to one bowl, then bring it here once it’s cooled."
"Ah."
The second aunt readily agreed, took the dicine, and left. Everyone else sat outside, frowning and not saying a word.
Su Pan’er also maintained silence, not uttering a word.
