Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves
Chapter 72 Forced
Why is her scumbag father acting crazy again?
"Let's see who dares!"
Su Manman stood up, rushed out of the house, and yelled at Su Tinggui, "What are you doing here?"
"Could it be that you're thinking about the Ice Stone sent by His Royal Highness Prince Qi again?"
Su Tinggui's expression changed as his true feelings were touched upon.
He looked around and said something else, circling the guards with his fingers, "Man'er, look at all the servants in your yard. Your father is here, and they still won't let you in?"
"It was my order!"
Su Manman said in a cold tone, "Dad, you really should go to Cuixiang Courtyard. Mom and I were away for a few days, and Cuixiang Courtyard was completely looted, leaving the ground in a mess."
"If I don't arrange for some servants I trust, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect the things in my house even if I move to Nishang Courtyard."
Su Tinggui looked a little grim after being scolded, but his heart was with Binghanshi. He said, "Man'er, look, Dad's leg is injured. Although I can't blame you and your mother entirely, I went up the mountain to look for you after all, and I got injured."
"I heard that the Ice Stone is very effective in healing wounds, otherwise..."
You're having evil thoughts again.
Su Manman sneered in her heart.
"I remember that just now, in front of His Royal Highness Prince Qi, my good father strongly testified that his leg injury was only a minor one."
She said disdainfully: "Why has your leg injury become more serious in such a short time?
"I begged the Ice Stone from His Royal Highness Prince Qi to cure my mother's poison."
"You'd better give up on it as soon as possible and don't even think about it."
"Man'er..."
Despite being rejected, Su Tinggui did not give up. "Even if you don't care about my leg injury, you should still care about my grandmother and let her use it."
"Why should she use it?" Su Manman asked back.
These people are shameless to the extreme.
"What? The old lady from the family of the Minister of Rites, she stole her daughter-in-law's life-saving 100-year-old ginseng at noon, and now she wants to steal her life-saving ice stone at night?"
"Such a vicious mother-in-law is rare in the world!"
Su Tinggui was so angry after Su Manman's ridicule.
"Shut up!" Veins popped out of his forehead. "She's your grandmother after all!"
"It's just that the bad guys are getting older."
Su Manman's eyes turned even colder. "My mother is still in a coma, and as her husband, you don't care at all. You've even teamed up with others to steal her life-saving herbs."
"This behavior is simply disgusting."
Su Manman was merciless in her words towards such a scumbag father.
"Su Manman, please be mindful of your words and actions."
"I've been paying close attention."
Her eyes were cold and she said sarcastically, "You have to rely on yourself for everything. Dad is so old, he should have been independent long ago."
"Don't set your sights on your wife and daughter just because you want something."
She crossed her arms and said jokingly, "If you want the Ice Stone, don't even think about getting it from me."
"There's more than one piece of Ice Stone in the Princess's Mansion. If you want one, go find the Princess and His Royal Highness Prince Qi and ask for it."
"Ask for it with your own true ability, and let others give it willingly."
"Don't use family affection to control me here."
Her series of sarcastic remarks, like popping beans, made Su Tinggui's face turn red and blue.
This daughter really doesn't give him any face at all.
Feeling a sting in his nose, Su Tinggui had no choice but to turn around and stagger back to Lanxinyuan.
As soon as he got back, Aunt Liu came over and asked about the result. When she learned that the negotiation was not successful, she became angry and cursed a few times.
In her exasperation, she blurted out, "I knew long ago that someone as selfish as Su Manman would definitely not be willing to take out the Ice Stone for us to share."
Upon hearing this, Su Tinggui slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground and said, "Since you knew it, why did you let me go?"
This one question frightened Aunt Liu so much that she stood there, not daring to say a word.
Seeing that the master was angry, she quietly left the main house and went to the west wing.
Ever since meeting Ye Mo in the front hall, Su Jiaojiao returned to her room in a daze, sitting in front of the couch, lost in thought.
She really couldn't figure it out.
At this time in his previous life, why did Ye Mo, who had no connection with Su Manman, treat Su Manman so differently in this life?
He actually came to her house in person and gave Su Manman such a precious piece of ice stone.
He said that Su Manman saved his life.
Where does this life-saving grace come from?
Why don't they know?
She was puzzled and felt very unwilling in her heart.
Why did the person she failed to get in her previous life fall into Su Manman's hands so easily in this life?
As I was thinking about this, I thought of that incident again.
Ye Mo mentioned that Lord Cao had caught the lumberjacks and they confessed.
Fortunately, she did not show up and let Wang Er do it.
All I could do was pray that the officers and soldiers would not catch Wang Er.
Just as I was worrying, Aunt Liu came in with a sad face.
Su Jiaojiao was immediately displeased and said unhappily, "What's the matter? Daddy went to Nishang Courtyard and was turned away?"
Aunt Liu sat down next to her and reached out to touch her face, but Su Jiaojiao dodged her. "Jiaojiao, don't worry. Mother will definitely find a way to heal your face before the flower viewing banquet."
"How do we cure it?" Su Jiaojiao became even more angry. "We don't have the Ice Stone, so everything is in vain."
"Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get your father to get the Ice Stone out."
Aunt Liu was confident. "We're only using it for a bit, and it won't break anything. Even if the eldest lady finds out later, what can she do?"
"Then what are we going to do?"
Su Jiaojiao had no confidence in her mother's idea.
"If your grandmother and Lin were put together, who would your father choose?" Aunt Liu said grimly.
"If Dad wants to force it, Su Manman may not give it to him." Su Jiaojiao felt that this suggestion would not work.
"Then force her to give it."
In the evening, Mrs. Qian, who had drunk the ginseng soup, had been experiencing heart palpitations.
As night fell, she became itchy all over and broke out in a rash.
The doctor from the palace went to check on her and asked about her diet. He learned that she had drunk a lot of ginseng soup and his face turned red with anxiety.
"The old woman's illness was caused by drinking too much ginseng soup, which led to drug poisoning."
Su Tinggui, leaning on a crutch, stood by the bed, recalling how his mother had snatched the century-old ginseng at noon and ate it frantically. For a moment, his temples began to throb with pain.
He scolded everyone in the room, "Why are you making ginseng soup for her..."
She chewed the food dry, ate so much, and then drank soup. She is too weak to be nourished!
Xinghua, who was in charge of making the ginseng soup, was singled out and knelt on the ground, trembling with fear. Tears streamed down her face as she begged for mercy: "It was the old lady. She had a plate of chewed ginseng crumbs, and she asked me to make some ginseng soup..."
"Shut up!" When this matter was exposed, Mrs. Qian blushed with shame.
Su Tinggui looked at the apricot blossoms, then at his mother, and he roughly understood what had happened.
His mother suffered a lot after losing her husband some years ago.
So over the years, even though my family has been doing well, I still can't bear to throw away some things.
Especially good things like century-old ginseng.
So, at noon, she boiled the ginseng pieces she vomited into ginseng soup.
When Su Tinggui thought of what he had vomited and boiled into soup, he felt nauseous.
