Chapter 11
Su Yurou drank the medicine for typhoid fever, and her fair little face twisted with viciousness. Su Yingxue, she cant win against me! Tell Yuan Xiang that she must find the tonic that His Highness gave her. Su Yingxue is not worthy of such a good thing! Diiscover new tories at nve/lbin(.)c/o
Yuan Ruo agreed and immediately sent the message.
Su Yingxue woke up early in the morning and heard the rustling in the courtyard. The people who came in yesterday were very diligent and had started sweeping early in the morning.
Zhilan made breakfast for her and brought it over with a face full of resentment. Yuan Xiang is too outrageous. She wants to touch everything and go everywhere. She even wants to enter our storeroom.
Su Yingxue smiled faintly as she drank the porridge. Our storeroom is empty. If she wants to go, let her be.
But there are three pieces of top-quality ginseng that the Ninth Prince gave you! Zhilan was very vigilant.
This was the only treasure Su Yingxue had. She had to look after it for Su Yingxue and not let anyone else get it.
Give the key to the storeroom to Yuan Xiang and let her take good care of the storeroom. Su Yingxue instructed.
Miss, Yuan Xiang has ill intentions. How can you give her the key? Zhilan was extremely nervous.
Her true master sent her here for a reason. If you dont give her a chance, how can she reveal her true intentions? Su Yingxue was expressionless, but her beautiful face made people feel that she was scheming and ingenious.
Zhilan immediately did as she was told, but she remembered what Su Yingxue had taught her. When she found Yuan Xiang, she deliberately put on a straight face and looked unwilling. Here, Miss trusts you and told you to look after the storeroom. If anything is missing or lost, Miss will definitely not forgive you!
Yuan Xiangs eyes flashed with pride. Got it, Sister Zhilan. Ill take good care of the storeroom.
After obtaining the key, she immediately informed Sunset Court. Su Yurou asked her to bring all the ginseng and replace it with something else to stuff it back into the box.
Looking at the three glossy ginseng on the table, a satisfied smile appeared on Su Yurous face. So what if His Highness gave it to her? Didnt it still fall into my hands?
Yuan Ruo immediately flattered, Yes, that idiot Eldest Young Miss doesnt deserve such an expensive thing! And even if she finds out that something is missing, she wouldnt dare to come and cause trouble for you! You are the Marquiss favorite! Yuan Xiang was also sent to her by the Marquis. If she vented her anger on Yuan Xiang, she would be going against the Marquis, and she could only suffer in silence!
Su Yurous jade-like fingers caressed the ginseng and nodded in satisfaction. If it wasnt for that old farts preference for her, His Highness would have given me these things!
She had been much more outstanding than Su Yingxue since she was young. Everything about Su Yingxue should belong to her!
In the evening, Zhilan quietly told Su Yingxue that she had followed Yuan Xiang and saw that she had secretly stolen ginseng and gave it all to Su Yurou.
Su Yingxue clapped her hands. Alright, then lets go and send the ginseng to Father.
Zhilan immediately carried the three boxes and followed Su Yingxue to the front hall with a smile.
Su Dingheng and Su Yurou had just finished dinner when Su Yingxue sent someone to deliver something to the entire family. Su Dingheng was very surprised and specially waited for her in the hall.
When Su Yingxue and Zhilan arrived, they saw that Su Hao was also there. He was wearing a tight black cloud pattern shirt and his long hair was tied up high. His brows were filled with heroic spirit and his presence was overbearing. The cold light in his eyes turned warm after seeing Su Yingxue.
Little sister. Su Hao called her softly.
Su Yingxue walked to Su Haos side and took his pulse. His internal injuries were almost healed. Looking at his expression, his external injuries were probably about to recover.
Su Yingxue was especially gratified.
Yingxue, what do you want by mobilizing so many people? Su Dingheng stroked his beard with displeasure in his eyes.
Su Hao had been raised by the old master since he was young, and he had learned 100% of his decisiveness from the old master. In his heart, he only had Su Yingxue as his sister and had no affection for his father. He came in and called him father with a straight face, not saying a word to him. Instead, he doted on Su Yingxue so much that he did not care about his father at all.
Therefore, he could not stand the intimacy between the siblings.
Su Yingxue put on an obedient look. Im naturally here to give good things to Father and Brother.
Sister is really thoughtful. Su Yurou said in a delicate voice.
Su Hao pinched Su Yingxues wrist. Why dont you keep your good stuff for yourself?
Su Hao knew that all of Su Yingxues good things had been plundered clean. She had never used any good things herself.
Now that he saw her take out another good item, his heart ached even more.
Brother, sit down. Su Yingxues eyes curved into a smile, revealing a reassuring expression.
Su Yurou originally thought that her good stuff was just those three ginseng. She had taken all of them, so what else could she have that could be considered good?
However, when Su Yingxue took out the box containing the ginseng, her expression changed drastically.
Su Yingxue gave three boxes of ginseng to Su Dingheng, Su Hao, and Su Yurou. She said generously, These are the ginseng, red ginseng, and purple ginseng that the Ninth Prince gave me yesterday. The Ninth Prince is so noble, so these gifts should be considered good, right? Ill give it to father, big brother, and Yurou.
Su Dinghengs eyes lit up. Of course, this is great!
Initially, he only had his eyes on the old masters ginseng. However, Chu Yihans status was much higher than the old masters, so the things he used were a hundred times more precious than those in the Marquiss Manor!
He opened the box impatiently and widened his eyes. W-Whats going on?
Su Hao also opened the box after him, but when he looked at the things inside, his handsome eyebrows furrowed deeply.
Su Yurous hands that were holding the box were trembling as she glared at Su Yingxue.
This b*tch!
Su Yingxue was at a loss. Father, whats wrong? Arent the things gifted by the Ninth Prince good?
What is this thing? This is definitely not a gift from His Highness! Su Dingheng threw an ordinary herb on the ground and pointed at Su Yingxue angrily. You used this to fool your father!
Father, I didnt lie to you. I originally wanted to give everyone ginseng out of good intentions, but who knew His Highness must have gifted it wrongly. Why dont I go to His Highnesss manor to ask him now? Su Yingxues beautiful little face was filled with innocence. She was so angry that she wanted to rush out.
Su Hao stopped her. Sister, it must be the work of the Marquiss Manors people.
Su Hao protected her and placed the box next to Su Dingheng. Father, the gift from His Highness would definitely not be given wrongly. If my sister did not have the intention to gift it, she would not be so sincere. From what I can see, someone in her residence must have tampered with it and replaced the ginseng. Since the thing was placed in her courtyard, it should be someone from her courtyard who did it.
Su Dingheng slammed the table angrily. The audacity! How dare anyone steal something that His Highness has gifted. Someone! Bring all the servants in the Eldest Young Misss courtyard here!
Su Yurous heart trembled. Father, it would be a fuss to investigate the case like this. Why dont we go back to sisters courtyard and investigate properly!
