Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
During the empress’s birthday banquet in the pce, many rumors were circting, most of which were rted to Su Yingxue.
However, when Lin Sisi came to gossip with Su Yingxue, she made the situation sound even more extraordinary.
“Dr. Su, you don’t know. There are so many young masters queuing up outside, all wanting to marry you! They said that you can bring prosperity to the husband’s family. Moreover, no one would dare to go against you! 1 came today, and two stewards gave me a visiting card and asked me to pass it to you.”
Lin Sisi ced the two visiting cards on Su Yingxue’s desk.
Su Yingxue nced at them and casually tossed them aside. “Recently, the clinic has started admitting patients to stay, and there’s a lot of work to do. I’m too busy for marriage matters, let alone entertaining such visits!”
Previously, Consort Xiang had sent Xiang Ling over to invite her into the pce for a chat, but she didn’t have the time to go, so how could she have the leisure to care about this now?
She wanted to spend more time reading the medicinal books and letters left by her mother!
Recently, she came across a particrly interesting one that discussed surgical procedures.
Although she didn’t understand what surgical procedures were, her mother’s letters contained a lot of information about this type of medical book. She even left a box for her to find a way to open.
She nned to delve into the book thoroughly before attempting to open the box.
“Dr. Su, you’re either reading or seeing patients. That was thest patient in the morning. You should take a break and listen to what I have to say!” Lin Sisi, besides practicing martial arts, often came to find Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue lowered her head to read her book. “It’s fine. Go ahead, I’m listening.”
“Alright then! Let me tell you about Minister Wu’s family first. They seem to have brought this upon themselves, and now their situation is miserable. Madam Wu fell seriously ill after returning from the empress’s birthday banquet andter developed hysteria. Lord Wu locked her in the room, nailed the door shut, and left her to fend for herself.”
“As for Wu Ruofei… It seemed that no one wanted her because she made a fool of herself. Originally, Lord Wu had arranged a modest marriage for her, but he was recently exposed to corruption and bribery. He’s now in the Capital Prefecture’s prison, and the marriage is off. Wu Ruofei spends her days crying at home.”
When Su Yingxue heard this, she raised her head and smiled. “This is karma.”
After she left the pce, she handed Wu Hongtao’s ount book to Liang Jin. Liang Jin was stern and detested corruption. Naturally, he would punish Wu Hongtao.
As for Madam Wu and her daughter…
From the moment they plotted against her and her brother, their good days were already numbered!
What surprised her now was that when she and Zi Wei went to investigate the Wu family the other day, they found out that Wu Ruofei’s maid, a girl named Feng He, had inexplicably died.
Zi Wei found the corpse and Su Yingxue went to examine it. She discovered that she was killed by a sharp de, a single fatal blow.
Apart from seeking revenge, no one in the Wu family wouldy a hand on a maid like her.
And those who could seek revenge on her…
The first thing that popped up in Su Yingxue’s mind was Su Yurou’s figure.
With Su Yurou’s scheming mind, she had never thought of silencing the maid. The only person who could help her n and send someone to take action was her skilled mother.
“Sister Wu, you’re so beautiful today!” Lin Sisi couldn’t help but exim when she saw Wu Jinyan enter.
Wu Jinyan was wearing a long, wavy, aqua-blue dress, with a cloud hairpin adorning her side-swept hair. Her makeup was exquisite, radiating elegance and charm.
In her hands, she carried a tray containing two new dresses and some cosmetics, hairpins, and essories.
Su Yingxue raised her eyebrows and smiled.. “Has the owner of Thousand-Jiao Pavilione to do business at my clinic?”
