Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Pan’er VS Cute Baby_1

Su Pan’er began to dig up her memories, recalling the cause of Su Ke’s leg injury.

It was probably about two months ago that Su Ke was playing by the river bank and somehow broke his leg. The fair frail bone was sticking straight out of the flesh, immediately frightening Mrs. Su-Hua unconscious.

A lot of money was spent, but not only did Su Ke’s leg not improve, it even began to fester, making it impossible to walk. In desperation, the doctor performed a second surgery to mend Su Ke’s bone. The cost of this surpassed their capability to pay, leaving the family penniless.

At this juncture, Su Sikong sought out the original body and convinced her to take Su Ke’s place for treatment as the price.

That’s how the original body ended up taking the brunt of it all.

"Ke’er, how’s your leg now? Does it still hurt when you walk?"

Su Pan’er recalled the past, when her younger brother often stood up for her, bringing a smile to her lips.

The smile on Su Ke’s face gradually faded, he nodded, then shook his head: "Yes! It seems to have gotten better. That...that...oh, a few days ago Miracle Healer Hu came over to see to my leg, don’t you remember, big sister?"

Miracle Healer Hu? Could he be referring to that con man, Old Uncle Hu?

Su Pan’er frowned: "He was here a few days ago? So you mean, since then, no one has come to change your bandage?"

Su Ke hesitated, head ducked low, not saying a word for a long while.

Back then, Su Sikong had guaranteed that as long as the original body was willing to replace the bride, he would treat Su Ke’s leg injury. But now...

A flash of severe determination appeared in her eyes.

She suddenly laughed, reaching out to pat his head: "Good boy, Ke’er, sit on the chair, let big sister check out your leg." She patted the chair beside her.

Check his leg injury?

Su Ke was about to obediently sit down when he heard this, his face turned bright red with shock, almost jumping off the chair.

"That...we don’t need to do that, do we? Big sister, it’s inappropriate for men and women to be too close, I..."

He clenched onto his trouser leg, refusing to let go, his face twisted in embarrassment.

This brought an immediate laugh from Su Pan’er.

"Pfft! You rascal! When you were little, big sister had to do everything for you, is there anywhere on your body that big sister hasn’t seen already? And now you’re pulling this stunt on your sister? Hurry up, roll up your trouser leg!"

Saying this, she moved to reach out.

"Stop, don’t move! When I was little, was little! In another half year, Ke’er will be seven years old and officially a man! You shouldn’t see me."

Su Ke’s face turned as red as a tomato, his eyes flashed indignantly, firmly refusing to let go.

"Stop nagging! Isn’t it six months until you turn seven? Depending on who you ask, you’re still a kid, how can you call yourself a man? Just hurry up!"

Su Pan’er didn’t take his threat seriously at all, she reached out and directly grabbed Su Ke’s chubby little face, twisting and teasing it.

"Umm... umm..."

Su Ke tried to say something, but couldn’t get his words out. He hurriedly let go of his trouser leg and tried to pry Su Pan’er’s hands off his face.

Su Pan’er used the opportunity to roll up his trouser leg: "Now! Naughty boy, it’s really embarrassing for you to have your big sister do this for you." With that, she began to carefully examine his wound.

She had seen it earlier, though the bone in Su Ke’s lower leg had been operated on twice by the quack doctor, it still wasn’t properly aligned. This incorrect alignment would be agony if the bone came into contact with anything on the ground and pressed against the nerves near the fracture.

How could he walk?

Su Pan’er carefully examined his injured leg, her fingers moving with such detail that everything down to the meridian channels was clearly rendered in her mind, even clearer than an x-ray.

The muscles around the affected area were already necrotic, a blood clot was obstructing it for far too long, leaving the skin beneath blackish. The calf was swollen, even larger than the thigh; it was quite a distressing sight. If the situation continues to get dragged out, not mentioning recovery, being able to avoid amputating the calf would already be a fortunate outcome!

Su Ke’s body was trembling slightly, his little face crumpled like a bitter gourd, large sweat beads were breaking out on his forehead, but he clenched his jaw tightly, not uttering a sound.

Seeing Su Pan’er’s brow tightly knit in worry, he only then spoke softly, "Fourth sister, stop looking. Ke’er is already fine. Worst comes to worst, we’ll amputate the calf..."

He was clearly heartbroken to the extreme, yet he was consoling Su Pan’er in a soft voice. His large eyes, which sparkled like stars, were also veiled with a layer of mist, their light dimming instantly.

"Does Ke’er believe fourth sister?"

"Yes! Ke’er believes. As long as it comes from fourth sister, Ke’er believes everything!"

Su Ke nodded emphatically, fiercely wiping away the falling tears.

"Alright, then you wait for fourth sister. Fourth sister will definitely cure your leg and let you run and jump like you used to do before. Is that ok?"

Her words carried a compassion she herself hadn’t noticed.

Run and jump like before?

Su Ke’s large eyes lit up instantly! He suddenly tugged at Su Pan’er’s clothes, without any regards for the necessity for men and women not to be too close, his words coming out in a tremble.

"Fourth sister, you... is it true? You... must be joking with Ke’er. Miracle Healer Hu had said, if I can walk with a crutch in the future, we can consider our ancestors have burned high-quality incense." The light in his eyes dimmed once more.

"Laugh! Didn’t you just say you believe in fourth sister? How could you forget so quickly?"

Su Pan’er couldn’t help but laugh, she raised her hand and flicked him gently on the earlobe.

Su Ke dodged repeatedly in amusement, couldn’t help but also began to laugh, revealing two small dimples at the corners of his mouth.

"Alright! Ke’er will wait for fourth sister!"

Being able to run and jump!

How could anyone imagine it? It was something that even he himself didn’t dare to dream of!

Su Pan’er also relaxed, watching Su Ke laugh heartily; she began to understand why the original body would agree to a proxy marriage.

This scene was observed entirely by Mrs. Su-Hua from the side, her eyes rimmed with redness, she quickly stepped to the side to wipe away her tears.

Having such a pair of good children, her life was worth it!

Little Ke’er took out a scroll from his arms, looked left and right, his big eyes blinking, he had a mysterious expression on his face: "Fourth sister, this is your treasure. You forgot to take it with you so I kept it for you, here!"

"What’s this?"

Su Pan’er carelessly took it, upon unfurling and seeing it, she immediately started laughing, deliberately teased him.

"This little girl is really pretty! What’s the matter, is she your sweetheart?"

Su Ke’s tiny face instantly turned red, snorting in agitation: "What are you talking about! Fourth sister, isn’t this your childhood portrait? You have always treasured it, how could you forget? This is really confusing!"

How could fourth sister suddenly change so much!

This is me?

Su Pan’er quickly examined closely, she simply could not associate the small beauty in the portrait with her current self.

A hand suddenly stretched from the diagonal side and took away the portrait.

Mrs. Su-Hua looked at the little girl in the portrait, and couldn’t help but laugh lightly: "Our Pan’er really is beautiful! Your mother still remembers, when you were a child, you were delicately sculpted, with bright and glistening eyes, your skin was as smooth as a peeled boiled egg, exceptionally adorable! Back then, you were much prettier than Su Yue’er! In a blink of an eye, it’s already been more than a decade, Pan’er has also grown up..."
