For two days in a row, Su Nan could only stay in bed, while Lin Rong, Su Mingxuan and Su Haoyu would come to keep her company from time to time. Even the very busy Su Jing'an would take time to come and see her.

Therefore, Su Nan gained a deeper understanding of them, gradually learned to get along with them, and accepted the fact that she had traveled through time. At the same time, she told herself that since she had died in the modern world, from now on, she would only be Su Qianrou, and no longer Su Nan.

Just as she was sitting on the bed in a daze, Su Wanshan walked in, "Sister."

Su Qianrou came to her senses, "Why is my sister here?"

"Is your health better, sister?" Su Wanshan walked up to her.

"Thank you for your trouble, little sister. I'm much better now."

"That's good."

“Miss, you may not know this, but these past two days, Second Miss has been so worried about you that she hasn’t been able to eat or sleep properly. She wanted to come see you, but she was afraid of disturbing your rest, so she copied Buddhist scriptures in the courtyard to pray for your speedy recovery,” said Yuexin, Su Wanshan’s maid.

“Really? You’re so kind, little sister. It’s perfect. Mother recently enshrined a statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Why don’t you take the Buddhist scriptures you copied to Zilan Courtyard? I think the Bodhisattva will see your sincerity and bless me to get better soon,” Su Qianrou said earnestly.

Su Wanshan was taken aback by what she said, so she was somewhat stunned and didn't know how to react for a moment.

Su Qianrou looked at her and couldn't help but feel sorry for the original owner of this body.

Su Wanshan was obtained through the schemes of Aunt Liu, so she was not liked by Lin Rong and Su Jing'an, and consequently Su Mingxuan and Su Haoyu also disliked her. Only the original owner treated her well, sending her all sorts of good things. However, her kindness was not met with gratitude, but with jealousy.

Su Wanshan was jealous of her good background, the love of her family, and her stunning beauty. It is said that jealousy drives people crazy, and that is absolutely true. The original owner probably never dreamed that the younger sister she treated with all her heart would eventually take her life.

"Why isn't my sister saying anything? Is something wrong?"

"No, it's just that my handwriting is not good, and I'm afraid it will offend the eyes of the Bodhisattva."

“Sister, you’re joking. Everyone in Yangzhou knows that you have beautiful handwriting. If we can’t even show off our handwriting, then we’ll all be ashamed to face others.”

Su Wanshan was very concerned about her status as an illegitimate daughter. In order not to be inferior to others, she always tried to improve her status. Her best skill was her calligraphy. Therefore, she had shown her talent in front of others many times. As a result, everyone in Yangzhou knew that she had beautiful handwriting.

Su Wanshan's face was not good. She wished Su Qianrou was dead, so how could she possibly copy Buddhist scriptures for her to pray for her? The reason she had the maid say that was just to show off her fake sisterly affection. However, she did not expect that Su Qianrou would ask her to take the copied Buddhist scriptures to Zilan Courtyard, which put her in a difficult position.

Su Qianrou isn't stupid; how could she not see through her thoughts? And since she's not the original owner, she naturally wouldn't indulge her. Besides, if the original owner knew what she had done, she probably wouldn't be foolish enough to forgive and forget and continue to treat her well.

"My sister doesn't seem too willing."

"How could that be? I'm just worried. After all, my sister knows that Mother has never liked me, and I'm afraid she'll be unhappy."

"No, sincerity touches people's hearts. As long as you are sincere, one day your mother will be moved and accept you."

"Really".

"Of course, if you don't believe me, when you get back, take the Buddhist scriptures to Mother. I believe she will be very happy to receive them."

Su Wanshan said somewhat awkwardly, "Let's do it tomorrow. I'm afraid my writing won't be good and my mother will be disappointed. When I get back, I'll check it carefully, and if there are no problems, I'll take it to my mother."

"My sister is just too modest. How could her handwriting be bad?"

Su Wanshan forced a smile and then said, "My sister has something to do, so she'll go back first. Sister, please get some rest."

"Okay, thank you for praying for me, sister. I will definitely try my best to get better soon. When I get better, I will chat with you again."

"Hmm," Su Wanshan said, then turned and left with her maid.

Su Qianrou watched her back and thought to herself, no wonder the original owner fell for her. With her acting skills, she's almost on par with veteran actors in modern times.

After she left, Chunzhu disapproved, saying, "Miss, you know how much Madam hates the Second Miss. You still let her get close to Madam. Aren't you just wasting Madam's love for you? Most importantly, you know she wants to harm you, yet you still help her. Aren't you being foolish?"

Su Qianrou simply smiled and did not answer.

Juxia then said, "I think you're the one who's stupid."

"What do you mean?" Chunzhu asked, puzzled.

"Do you really think the Second Miss would be so kind as to copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for our Miss?"

Chunzhu still didn't understand what she meant and looked at her blankly.

Juxia had to explain, "Miss asked Second Miss to take the Buddhist scriptures to Madam so that she would reap what she sowed. Think about it, if she didn't copy the Buddhist scriptures, what would she give Madam? Wouldn't she have to copy them overnight?"

"If the Second Miss didn't copy, then why did Yuexin say that?"

"It was the second young lady who told her to say it, trying to win our young lady's favor. However, this time, they've wasted their time."

Chunzhu suddenly realized what was going on, and then, as if remembering something, she said, "Miss, are you sure you don't want to tell Master and Madam that the Second Miss is trying to harm you?"

"Without evidence, telling them is useless; on the contrary, it will leave a bad impression on Dad, so it's not worth it."

"The master dotes on you so much, he will definitely stand up for you."

"Even if there were solid evidence, he couldn't do anything to Su Wanshan. After all, Su Wanshan is his daughter, and I'm still alive and well."

"We can't just let it go like this, can we? The Second Miss almost killed you."

"Don't worry, I'll make her pay back little by little."

Chunzhu then stopped saying anything.

After Su Wanshan left Su Qianrou's Zilan Courtyard, her face darkened instantly, and she exuded a gloomy aura.

Yuexin followed cautiously behind her, not daring to utter a single word, for fear that she would take her anger out on her.

After a while, Su Wanshan suddenly stopped and asked, "Don't you think that bitch Su Qianrou seems to have changed a bit?"

Yuexin thought for a moment and replied, "It seems a little different. In the past, whenever Madam spoke to you a little harshly, Miss would always speak up for you. But the other day, Miss seemed not to hear at all and didn't say a word. And just now, if it were in the past, Miss would definitely have been moved to hold your hand and say many words of sisterly affection when she knew that you were copying Buddhist scriptures for her. Instead, she would have asked you to take the copied scriptures to Madam."

"Do you think she might have discovered that I drugged her, which is why she changed her attitude towards me?"

"It shouldn't be, otherwise, the young lady would have questioned you long ago."

"Yeah, with her IQ, how could she possibly find out?" Su Wanshan comforted herself, and then continued walking forward.
