Chapter 3: I stole your opportunity and saved you, and you still have to be grateful to me.
There was much discussion outside the Fu residence. "Isn't this pampered wife being too pretentious? She even insisted on being invited?"
At this moment, a maid-like woman emerged from the bridal sedan chair. Qing Shan cleared her throat. She, who never dared to speak loudly, used her loudest voice and spoke clearly for her mistress: "My mistress is here by order of the Immortal Lord to bestow divine medicine to treat Young Master Fu."
An uproar erupted around them.
"Is there really a miraculous medicine that can cure Young Master Fu?"
“Of course.” Although Qingshan didn’t know what kind of divine medicine it was, her blind trust in her young mistress made her say with certainty, “My young mistress is a celestial being. The reason she wanted to go to the river earlier was because the celestial beings used magic to lead her there to get the medicine.”
“But if Young Master Fu wants the miraculous medicine to restore his health, he doesn’t even dare to come for the wedding. How can my young lady give him the miraculous medicine?”
There were whispers all around.
Fu Er couldn't sit still any longer.
He looked past Qing Shan with a sharp gaze, as if he could see directly into Su Su inside the bridal sedan chair.
Fu Er is a man who values family ties, whether it's his blind filial piety towards his mother or his respect for his elder brother.
If one day someone tells him that he can cure his elder brother, Fu Er would be willing to cut off his head and let people kick it around like a ball.
But the premise is that it's true.
"Is what you say true, sister-in-law? If there really is such a miraculous medicine, I, Fu Er, would be willing to serve you like a slave."
“But.” Fu Er’s tone was solemn. The Fu family’s dignity could not be challenged. If just anyone came to the Fu family and said they could cure a disease, Fu Er would be grateful. Where would the Fu family’s face be then?
"If my sister-in-law is only concerned with saving face today, she must not joke about my brother's health."
“I made things difficult for you before, causing you to lose face. Now I apologize to you. Please get out of the sedan chair.” Fu Er lowered his voice and said in an unfriendly tone, “Don’t make things any more embarrassing.”
Fu Er heard that young women value their reputation, and it would be wrong to make a fool of the Fu family just to save face for a moment.
Yes, he didn't believe in any divine decree or divine guidance, thinking it was all just a woman's joke or a nightmare.
Su Su scoffed, "You think I'm like you?"
Su Su sat upright in the sedan chair, her voice clear and loud enough for everyone around to hear.
"Whether it is a miraculous medicine or not, Young Master will know once he tries it. I am right here. If you refuse, just take me to the government office."
"How can your worthless life compare to my elder brother's?" Fu Er retorted subconsciously, but then heard the young man's authoritative rebuke from behind him.
"Nonsense! Who gave you permission to be so disrespectful and bully your sister-in-law in public?"
"Young Master Fu has arrived."
"Is that Young Master Fu? He certainly looks sickly."
"Although Young Master Fu is sickly, he is exceptionally talented. He wrote poems at the age of three and lyrics at the age of four. Now he has been personally selected by the Emperor as the third-ranked scholar."
"If it weren't for his physical condition, which forced him to recuperate in the Hanlin Academy, he would probably be a rising star in the eyes of the Emperor by now."
Fu Sinian's face was pale, and the veins on his fingers were clearly visible. The reprimand he had just received had caused his lungs to itch, and he coughed and swallowed the words, keeping them hidden in his throat.
Fu Ssu-nien suppressed his cough and slowly stood up from his wheelchair.
Shu Jie stood beside him, holding an umbrella, worried that his young master might catch a cold.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight and noon, so it was unlikely to get sick.
Fu Sinian stepped forward, and Qingshan stepped back.
He gently tapped the door frame of the bridal sedan chair with his long, slender, and beautiful fingers.
"Please alight from the sedan chair, my lady." The young man's voice reached Su Su's ears through the sedan curtain.
Su Su had to admit that, although they hadn't met yet, her husband's voice was indeed gentle and pleasant.
Su Su didn't stand on ceremony. Since Fu Sinian had followed the rules she had set at the beginning, she naturally lifted the sedan curtain.
What a divine face came into view! The young man's eyes were filled with amazement, his eyes bright as stars. He wore a red wedding robe, which did not diminish his elegance in the slightest, but rather made it almost imperceptible.
Even though Su Su prided herself on having seen many movie stars, none of them were as familiar as the young man's one-time encounter.
No wonder Fu Ssu-nien remained popular even after leaving the cultivation world; he certainly had a lot of female admirers.
Su Su's eyes cleared instantly. No matter how handsome he was, it was just a shell; beneath the mask lay the essence of a scumbag. Fu Sinian looked at Su Su with surprise, probably not expecting anyone to be unmoved by his appearance.
Su Su took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom. If it weren't for her humble background and the lack of witnesses, she wouldn't have been able to leave the Fu residence without a chance to recover.
Such people should rot in the mortal world.
The original bottle containing the medicine could seal its properties and prevent it from evaporating, so she couldn't have given it directly to Fu Sinian.
This Qi-Nourishing Pill fits perfectly in the silk scarf.
"Open your mouth."
Su Su gave the order expressionlessly.
"Hmm." Fu Sinian subconsciously caught the pill.
Fu Er, caught off guard, failed to stop the two and exclaimed in surprise, "Big Brother!"
Unexpectedly, the next second Fu Sinian seemed to have swallowed a magic potion, and his originally pale complexion suddenly turned slightly rosy.
He was born with this illness; he was weak and had never been very agile since childhood.
Although the Qi-Nourishing Pill had low potency, it was still a spiritual medicine. Under the impact of the medicine, Fu Sinian's body swayed, as if he could not stand up.
At this moment, Madam Fu had just reached the gate when she saw this scene. She was so frightened that she shouted, "Quick! Go and call a doctor!"
“No need. I just happened to be here for the wedding banquet today and have watched the festivities. Let me take a look at the young master.” An old man with a white beard stepped out from behind the crowd.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, for he was a retired imperial physician in his seventies, enjoying a life of leisure at home.
I've heard that he's a highly skilled doctor; if he were willing to help, he could even pull someone back from the brink of death.
"This old lady thanks Physician Zou for treating my son." Seeing this, Madam Fu had nothing more to say and gratefully bowed to Physician Zou.
Then, he walked aggressively towards the bridal sedan chair.
Seeing that things were not going well, Qingshan quickly stepped in front of her young mistress.
Fu Er helped his elder brother move to the side so that Doctor Zou could take his pulse more easily.
Old Madam Fu stood in front of Su Su and said angrily, "You woman, you haven't even entered the Fu family yet, and you've already caused trouble for the Fu family."
"My Fu family cannot tolerate such humiliation from you. We hereby annul the engagement, effective today!"
"Guards! Miss Su has murdered her ex-husband. Take her to the county government!"
"Yes," the servants replied.
More than a dozen servants surrounded Su Su.
"It's fine to annul the engagement, but isn't it a bit premature to accuse me of murdering my ex-husband?" Su Su said lightly, "Or is it that the old lady is unwilling to acknowledge me as Young Master Fu's savior and has ulterior motives?"
"You've ruined my son like this, what else do you have to say? Hurry up and do it! Are you listening to her or me?" Seeing that the servants were all stunned by the other party's words, Madam Fu's tone became increasingly unfriendly.
"Don't make a move!" Fu Sinian finally calmed down behind him.
"Brother, you're still sick, don't push yourself."
Fu Er held Fu Sinian down, preventing him from moving.
But to his surprise, his usually frail older brother was able to easily push his hand away and run to Su Su's side.
While Fu Er was still in a daze, he heard Imperial Physician Zou mutter to himself, "How could this be? Looking at his meridians, he doesn't seem to be born weak at all; on the contrary, he seems like a healthy person."
"Si Nian, what are you doing? I won't arrest her. You should sit down and rest. Don't upset yourself." Although Madam Fu was disheartened that her eldest son had disobeyed her for the sake of a woman, she still thought about her son's health.
Instead, Su Su, standing behind him, asked, "How does it feel to have a healthy body?"
"Thank you very much, Miss Su, for the medicine. I am deeply grateful." Fu Sinian bowed respectfully.
Su Su thought to himself, "I'm taking your opportunity and saving you, and you still have to be grateful to me. What a wonderful thing!"
Author's inner thoughts: We can discuss any plot issues. Even if you criticize me, I'll just kiss you like a submissive. I'm playing this single-player game!
