Now, with a silver ingot held in her palm, she looked at Su Yingxue as if she had beheld a god.
However, as soon as she raised her head, Su Yingxue expressed surprise. “You…”
“Miss, this lady looks like you!” Zhilan voiced Su Yingxue’s thoughts.
This fish-selling girl was at least 40% similar to her. If it weren’t for her skin not receiving proper care and being exposed to the elements, she would be a beauty.
Shen Yu also clearly saw Su Yingxue’s appearance this time. Seeing Su Yingxue’s luxurious carriage and generous demeanor, she immediately bowed and said, “1 will never forget Sister’s kindness in saving my father today. Which noble household does Sister belong to? In the future, I will definitely… repay Sister.”
Su Yingxue’s lips twitched awkwardly. “There’s no need to call me sister. We met by chance, so you don’t have to worry about it. Just take care of your father.”
Su Yingxue’s impression of her was a bit unfavorable, so she got into the carriage after saying that.
However, Shen Yu followed closely behind, leaning against her carriage window. Her eyes couldn’t hide the greedy look. “Sister, I know you’re rich. You… Tell me which family you’re from. In the future… If my father’s leg can’t be cured, 1 can come and beg you again! You must be a great doctor!”
Su Yingxue sneered. She was naive. She saved someone who didn’t know gratitude and still wanted to cling to her!
“Miss, I saved your father because I pity you both. However, whether your father can be cured or not has nothing to do with me. You should go to the clinic quickly and take care of your father,” Su Yingxue kindly advised.
However, Shen Yu refused to let go. Her delicate face was filled with anxiety. “But Daddy is the backbone of our family. If his leg doesn’t recover, my mother, brother, and sister will starve to death. Sister, you are so rich, you will not be stingy in helping my family. Please be kind, 1…”
“What does your family have to do with my Miss?” Zhilan shouted angrily, “You have to know your place. Miss’s kindness is not for you to ruin! If you continue to pester, I’ll take back the silver in your hand!”
Zhilan extended her hand, and the coachman gave her a stern look.
Shen Yu immediately hugged the silver and shrunk back. She timidly squeezed into the crowd and did not dare to pester Su Yingxue anymore, afraid that Su Yingxue would take back the silver she had given.
She was a frail girl, unable to compete with the coachman and guards by her side.
Zhilan looked at her and felt indignant. “Miss, don’t be so righteous next time. Look, who did you save? She might resemble you a bit, but she addresses you Sister, and even wants to extort you! If she knew you were in the Marquis’s Manor, wouldn’t she still want to be the Miss of the Marquis’s Manor?”
Su Yingxue nodded. “It seems so!”
She slapped her hand hard. “How dare you be so disobedient? You want to touch the patient whenever you see one!”
In this world, there were indeed many patients that should not be touched.
There were even some that couldn’t be touched!
Su Yingxue held her head and began to reflect on herself. She was such a good person. Next time, she would not itch for it!
The treatment of Shen Yu and her father took some time, and by the time they reached the entrance of the imperial palace, it was half an hour later than Su Yingxue had anticipated.
When Zhilan accompanied her into the palace, she had a bad feeling. “Miss, we didn’t delay, right?”
Su Yingxue shook her head. “According to the rules of the palace, the banquet starts at 10:45 pm. Although we didn’t arrive early, it’s only 10 pm now. It’s not too late to come in at this time. It’s still early..”
