The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!-Chapter 6: She Has Grown up
Chapter 6: She Has Grown up
When Su Yurou heard this discussion, the corners of her lips curled up in satisfaction. This was exactly what she wanted!
Su Yingxue was not worthy of being the first daughter!
Su Yingxue picked up the medicine bottle and looked at the booklet. She then glanced at Zhilan who was tied to the side and knew that Su Dingheng was using the medicine to make things difficult for her.
She sneered disdainfully. "Father, do you know what stealing is?"
She was proud and unyielding, and Su Dingheng was furious. "You took the herbs without permission and didn't record them. It's theft! Moreover, you stole ginseng and Blood Clotting Grass. They are very precious!"
"Firstly, I didn't steal the Blood Clotting Grass. Secondly, the ginseng didn't come from the Marquis's Manor's pharmacy. It was given to me by my grandfather. It's not recorded in this booklet at all. It's only stored in the pharmacy. On what grounds did you reprimand me when I took my own things?"
Su Yingxue took out a few stalks of Blood Clotting Grass from her bosom. "Father, you've found the medicine Zhilan used. There is indeed Blood Clotting Grass inside, but I personally went up the mountain to pick it. Blood Clotting Grass grows at the edge of the cliff and is very difficult to pick, so it is precious. I risked my life to pick the medicine, but you mistake it as theft? I refuse to accept this!"
Her resounding and forceful words of dissatisfaction were like an alarm bell ringing in everyone's hearts.
Su Dingheng's forehead gradually broke out in cold sweat.
Ling Xiao Garden.
Su Hao used Su Yingxue's medicine and recovered a lot in a day. He tried to get out of bed and walk around.
There was no one in the courtyard except for Shu Yan, who came over with medicine. When he saw that Su Hao could walk again, he was pleasantly surprised. "Young Master, you recovered so quickly!"
Su Hao was also very gratified. "My sister's medicine is excellent. I want to see her today."
Su Hao had doubts in his heart all along. He was worried that Su Yingxue's medicine was not easy to obtain. If she caused trouble, he could help her deal with it earlier if he knew it earlier.
Shu Yan stopped him and avoided his gaze. "Young Master, you should rest more. Don't get involved in that mess."
"What do you mean? What happened to my sister!" Su Hao pressed hard on Shu Yan's arm, looking nervous. "Where is she?"
"In the hall. The Old Master is teaching her a lesson. She stole the medicinal ingredients in the pharmacy..."
Shu Yan sighed in his heart. He only thought that Su Yingxue was stupid. So what if she gave Su Hao medicine? She still caused trouble again!
"I'll go see her!"
Su Hao rushed out with his sickly body. Shu Yan quickly caught up with him. "Young Master, slow down. Your internal and external injuries haven't recovered yet. Don't bother about her! It couldn't be helped that she's stupid... Hey, Young Master!"
Su Hao was extremely nervous. He thought that Su Yingxue would be punished by Su Dingheng again, either beaten or scolded. However, when he arrived, Su Yingxue's slender figure was standing upright in the hall.
Her voice was clear enough for everyone present to hear her clearly. "The Marquis's Manor is indeed strict. I am the Marquis's Manor's first daughter, so I have to set an example for the manor. That's why I never use precious herbs in the pharmacy. Even if I was beaten and scolded by Father until I was covered in injuries, I would still risk my life to pick herbs to treat my injuries. However, Father, as the Marquis of Martial South, you are the head of the family without Grandfather. You actually wanted to give the thousand-year-old ginseng to your mistress's children, and the Blood Clotting Grass was stolen because of your lack of security!"
The scar on Su Yingxue's snow-white arm was especially obvious, and every word she said was flawless.
Su Dingheng's face turned ashen, and the knuckles of his clenched fists turned white.
It was as if he had been slapped in public, and he could only act tough. "What's wrong with me feeling sorry for Yurou? She's your biological sister! You're the eldest sister, yet you're so stingy with your younger sister!"
Su Yingxue did not refute immediately, giving Su Dingheng a chance to catch his breath.
He thought that this reason would be able to pressure Su Yingxue a little!
However, Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows and sneered. Her eyes were emitting a cold killing intent. "Father, it's not wrong for you to feel sorry for your children, but you forgot that your legitimate children are only me and my brother! As for your other children... they don't even deserve a title. So, how can she be my sister, and why should I give her the ginseng?"
Su Yingxue's words were like a sharp blade that stabbed into Su Yurou's body, turning her into a bloody mess.
This was where she hurt the most!
She had been tormented by the birth of a concubine since she was young. She had endured it for many years. She had learned the four arts, music, calligraphy, and etiquette. She was better than Su Yingxue in every aspect. However, she was still inferior to Su Yingxue's identity as the daughter of the first wife.
In order not to embarrass Su Dingheng, she immediately took off her fox fur coat and golden hairpin. She wore a plain white dress and slowly bowed in front of Su Yingxue. Her voice was soft and weak. "Sister is right, I'm indeed not worthy. It is my fault for sister and father to make a big fuss over a daughter of a concubine like me."
After she finished speaking, she got up and slammed into the pillar. Fortunately, there were servant maids to stop her. She only had a small scratch on her forehead.
However, Su Dingheng's heart ached terribly. He supported her and scolded Su Yingxue angrily, "Look at what you've done! You dare to bully your sister in front of me? Hurry up and use the Blood Clotting Grass to treat her injuries."
Su Dingheng ordered his men to take the Blood Clotting Grass from her.
Su Yingxue glared at him. "Who dares!"
Her eyes were sharp, and her entire body exuded a noble and inviolable aura, instantly making people not dare to approach her.
She glanced at Su Yurou indifferently. "Father, if you want to give her the Blood Clotting Grass, you can just take it from the pharmacy. However, according to the rules of our Marquis's Manor, if you take precious herbs, you have to pay the same price. Moreover, you've said that since I didn't steal the Blood Clotting Grass, it means that you didn't manage it well. You must remember to make up for the stolen Blood Clotting Grass. Otherwise, if Grandfather finds out about this, he will definitely blame you for not managing the family properly and could not even look after a few stalks of Blood Clotting Grass!"
When Su Dingheng heard this, he almost vomited blood. The price of the Blood Clotting Grass outside was at least three thousand taels of silver for one stalk. Previously, the one he had taken to frame Su Yingxue was already given to Su Yurou and her brother. Now, to make up for it and continue giving it to Su Yurou, he would have to spend more than ten thousand taels of silver!
This wretched girl was deliberately making him spend money in vain!
"Wait! Don't you have some with you? Can't you give it to your sister?" Su Dingheng called out to Su Yingxue in pain.
Su Yingxue had just pulled the injured Zhilan. Without her, Zhilan became the target of bullying.
She handed the Blood Clotting Grass to Zhilan and said coldly, "The Blood Clotting Grass I picked is very useful, so I can't give much."
"Sister, I only want one. If you can give some to me, I will be extremely grateful!" Su Yurou wiped her tears.
She naturally felt sorry for her father's money. Her father's money belonged to her, her mother, and her younger brother. It was their loss to waste money!
Moreover, Su Yingxue had picked so many of them, so how could she not be envious of these good medicinal herbs?
Su Yingxue sighed. "The ones that I picked are not even enough for Zhilan. How could I have extra for you?"
After saying that, she left with Zhilan.
In the courtyard, everyone in the Marquis's Manor who had been summoned by Su Dingheng heard the meaning behind Su Yingxue's words. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
In her eyes, Su Yurou, the Second Young Miss, was not even as good as her servant girl!
Su Yurou's blood was stuck in her throat, and she almost suffocated to death!
"Young Master?" Shu Yan called out, "Aren't you going to stand up for Su Yingxue?"
Why was he standing there?
