C21 The next Head of the Su Clan (1/2)

Healing his elder brother? Su Zixuan's breathing froze, and his eyes were filled with fanaticism. ”Really? My brother still has a chance of recovery?! ”

”What This King said is possible. Don't have too high of an expectation.” Looking at her, Chu Yi Xuan was slightly regretful.

What if she didn't cure it? Wouldn't that just make her feel more sorrowful?

”I understand, but some hope is better than nothing.” Su Zixuan did her best to calm her heart. As long as there was a way to cure her brother, she would give it a try, regardless of the possibility.

The scene of her brother playing with her in front of her eyes was still fresh in her mind. Such a good brother, if he hadn't been seriously ill, he would have been a fine young lady by now.

He would have his own life, going to school, getting married and having children, taking care of the clan's business, or even the imperial examinations.

She let her thoughts run wild until she felt a rough touch on her face. Subconsciously, she took two steps back and wiped away the tears on her face.

”Your highness, please excuse me. From now on, Prince Jin will be waiting for the good news in his mansion.”

Chu Yixuan nodded his head in satisfaction. Su Zixuan had said that she could do it, so he believed unconditionally and left everything to her without worry.

The man gave her a long look, then left through the window again.

He would never make her cry again.

Listening to butler Su Yuan's report, Su Qian Shan's expression became complex. He was very pleased that the daughter he had high hopes for had finally returned to being that intelligent child from the past.

He was also afraid that her vision was too small and only focused on this small place in the mansion.

The two daughters of the Su Clan had always looked at things wrongly. His youngest daughter was already a cripple, so he was afraid that his eldest daughter would go down the wrong path again.

”Go, call the young miss.” Su Qian Shan instructed as he sat at his desk.

In the past, it was he who had failed to control himself and ended up suffering for the Lu family. He had never felt the slightest bit of pity for the Lu family, and had always treated them coldly.

However, he still wanted her body, and he couldn't be sincere. He felt guilty, and could only compensate her in other ways.

Thus, she turned a blind eye to the people she brought with her, until she died of illness and her subordinate forces were handed over to her youngest daughter.

His youngest daughter was using the family's money to maintain a private shop. He knew about her arrangements all these years, and it was because of his consent that the account office moved the money so readily.

After all, his Su Clan was the wealthiest person in the entire Da Qi Kingdom, and these silver taels were nothing. Furthermore, his youngest daughter was a concubine, so some of his money wouldn't be taken advantage of.

However, he did not expect that his preference for Su Xuemin would make him insatiably greedy, or it could be said that it was inseparable from the teachings of her birth mother, the Lu family.

Su Qian Shan felt guilt towards the mother and daughter pair, so he didn't intervene in the matter. When the Lu family passed away, it was already too late for him to discipline them.

Her youngest daughter seemed gentle, but she had thoroughly understood the Lu family's every move.

The same gentleman that the family had hired for their two daughters, Su Xuemin, had taken a wrong turn.

”Master, Big Miss is here.” The voice from outside brought Su Qian Shan back to reality.

”Come in, the rest of you.”

Seeing her father's serious expression, Su Zixuan also became serious.

”Do you know why I called you here today?”

”Your daughter doesn't know. Please enlighten me, Father.”

Seeing the perplexed look on her daughter's face, she sighed and said, ”Ming'er arranged for the silver coins to be transferred with my permission.”

Su Zixuan wasn't surprised. Her father felt guilty towards Aunt Lu and his daughter, and it wasn't a secret in the Su family anymore. As a well-known rich merchant in the capital, it was expected that he would make amends with money.
