Chapter 99: Chapter 99 Is He Good to You
“Sister Yunjin, Father has also gone out!”
Su Zhongshi realized that his daughter was now a grown girl, and as a grown man, it was inappropriate for him to stay in the room while his daughter applied medicine. To avoid any impropriety, Su Zhongshi, like Gu Ya, left the room.
Before he left, he also went back to carry Su Xiaobao away.
Although Su Xiaobao was young, he was still a boy, and it was also inappropriate for him to remain there.
Soon, only Su Yunjin and her sister Su Ningxiu were left in the room, “All right, Second Sister, now that Father and the others have gone out, I can help you apply the medicine.”
“Mm!” Su Ningxiu nodded at Su Yunjin and rolled up her sleeve for Su Yunjin to apply the medicine, and like when she had applied medicine to Su Xiaobao before, Su Yunjin massaged the bruised areas while she helped Second Sister Su Ningxiu.
Concerning today’s events in the courtyard, Su Ningxiu was unaware, locked away in the secluded firewood room, vaguely hearing the noisy disturbance outside.
Mrs. Tao had sold her to Old Master Huang and would not let her off easily. Su Ningxiu was quite curious as to why, today, her parents allowed her out without Mrs. Tao and her sons stopping her.
What puzzled Su Ningxiu even more was that it seemed like none of Mrs. Tao’s family was at home; the Su Family courtyard had never been so quiet before.
“Little Sister, how did you and our parents manage to let me out today? What about Grandmother and Second Uncle? Weren’t they afraid I would run away, always guarding outside the firewood room? How come there’s no one around now?” Su Ningxiu asked Su Yunjin.
Su Yunjin scooped up a little more ointment and continued to apply it to Second Sister Su Ningxiu’s neck, “Second Sister, Mrs. Tao and the rest are now too preoccupied with Su Xiaofu’s issue to bother about you.”
Thinking about Mrs. Liang dragging Su Xiaofu to the authorities made Su Yunjin secretly gleeful. Seeing Su Yunjin smiling, Su Ningxiu became even more puzzled, “Little Sister, what exactly happened?”
“Second Sister, this is what happened! Fan Wenxuan secretly gave Su Xiaofu the silver hairpin belonging to his mother, Mrs. Liang, behind her back. When Mrs. Liang found out, she accused Su Xiaofu of stealing her hairpin and was going to take her to report it to the authorities,” Su Yunjin said, chuckling as she spoke.

Having passed so much time, Su Yunjin speculated that Mrs. Tao might have already taken Su Xiaofu to the County Governor’s Office.
This time, with Su Xiaofu being taken to the County Governor’s Office by Mrs. Liang, regardless of whether Su Xiaofu admitted to stealing the hairpin, Su Xiaofu’s reputation would be completely ruined. Su Yunjin felt a surge of satisfaction thinking about Su Xiaofu’s tarnished reputation.
After indulging in a bit of schadenfreude, Su Yunjin looked up only to find her elder sister Su Ningxiu looking at her with a mixture of heartache, “Second Sister, what’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Little Sister, have you really let go of what happened with Fan Wenxuan?” Su Ningxiu cautiously inquired. Fan Wenxuan had a prior betrothal agreement with her little sister, but he had been involved with Su Xiaofu behind her back and had broken off the engagement. Su Ningxiu felt a pang of sorrow for her sister at the mention of Fan Wenxuan.
Su Yunjin thought something had happened!
It turned out it was because of Fan Wenxuan.
To say nothing of the fact that it was the original body, not her, who was engaged to Fan Wenxuan, even if she had been the one engaged, with a scoundrel like Fan Wenxuan, she would have celebrated the end of that betrothal! How could she not have let go? “Second Sister, don’t worry! I’ve long since stopped caring,” Su Yunjin said with a nonchalant expression.
Seeing Su Yunjin’s indifferent face, Su Ningxiu sized up her little sister and could tell she indeed seemed to be genuinely unconcerned. She asked further, “Little Sister, then is your husband good to you?”
