Chapter 739: Chapter 738 Seeing Siblings_1
Let him sleep for a while, he really is tired!
Su Pan’er instructed the kitchen to prepare dishes that would help Qin Yi strengthen his body. She thought and realized that the Winter Solstice Festival was just around the corner, so she might as well start preparing the pill that can boost Inner Strength.
At their current level, the pills produced using the original purple sand pot are full of impurities, which are not beneficial for their Inner Strength enhancement. Unless she used her Inner Strength to transform lung-fire, creating a pill that enhances Inner Strength, only such a pill would be effective in breaking through the bottleneck.
But right now, her Inner Strength cultivation is not sufficient. If she gets tired halfway through and needs to rest, the entire batch of pills would be ruined.
Plus, she doesn’t have all the required medicinal ingredients, and that is why she has never tried making the pill.
But now, she still wanted to give it a shot.
If she happened to succeed, it could elevate both hers and Qin Yi’s Inner Strength to the next level.
Before she could decide, she saw Uncle Xiao rushing in.
"Madam, the First Master is seeking an audience at the door."
First Master?
Su Pan’er was stunned, not catching on immediately.
Uncle Xiao quickly followed up: "It’s the First Young Master Su, and he brought a lot of things. Madam, you see..."
On hearing that, Su Pan’er jumped up joyfully, hurriedly urging Uncle Xiao.
"It’s my first cousin brother? Quick, invite him in!"
While she was speaking, she had already stood up and headed outside swiftly.
Uncle Xiao, with a joyous expression on his face, swiftly followed her: "Madam, don’t rush. As soon as I heard it from the gatekeeper, I ordered someone to usher in the First Master. He probably has already entered the courtyard by this time..."
Before he could finish, Su Pan’er rushed out of the second Moon Gate along the promenade. The heavy snow was still falling outside, painting a white vista. Following the long walkway through several yards, she looked up and saw Su Huarong being led this way under the guidance of a page boy. Behind him, two servants were carrying two large boxes.
"First cousin brother!"
Su Pan’er, unable to contain her joy, hollered and dashed over.
Today, Su Huarong was dressed in crescent white clothes. He didn’t look like a wreck, but had even more mature charm.
Upon seeing Su Pan’er, he broke into a broad smile and quickly came forward to greet her: "Huarong greets Madam Marquis!"
"First cousin brother, why are you being so formal?"
Su Pan’er glared at him cheerfully: "The fourth younger sister always refers to you as the first cousin brother, but you call me Mrs. Qin? Isn’t this too formal?"
"Etiquette cannot be abandoned," he replied.
Su Huarong stood up and once again greeted Su Pan’er: "Fourth younger sister, it’s been a while. I’ve brought you some specialty products from my trip; I hope you won’t think less of them."
Su Pan’er was taken aback, then burst into a giggle.
"First cousin brother, it’s been a long time, you’re as formal as ever. If you are still thinking of your fourth younger sister, she’d be overjoyed, how could she be annoyed? Come, let’s discuss this inside."
With that, she ordered her servants to take away the local specialties and led Su Huarong to the parlor.
The ground dragon inside the parlor was burning brightly.
The two of them sat down according to their status, and the servant served hot tea. Su Huarong naturally asked about Little Yanyan, so Su Pan’er asked the servant to bring Little Yanyan over.
But Little Yanyan still hadn’t woken up yet, after several unsuccessful attempts to rouse her, she began to cry, covering her little face, making everyone laugh. The servants had no choice but to take her away again. Su Huarong quickly offered a box of silk, filled with small wooden horses, little dough figurines, seven-piece puzzles, and other small toys suitable for children.
Seeing this, Su Pan’er was pleased, it seems Su Huarong was indeed thoughtful. She then instructed Uncle Xiao to fetch Qin Yi before turning to face Su Huarong across the table.
"First cousin, your fourth younger sister owes you an apology."
As Su Pan’er spoke, she indeed got up and paid her respects to Su Huarong: "After the chaos at Xiangguo Temple, Fourth younger sister had to fend for herself and was taken to a small manor by Qin Hong. Coincidentally, Little Yanyan fell seriously ill, and after a high fever, she developed a lung infection, and it took over a month to recover. She was too small at the time, I was constantly taking care of her, and by the time I got the news, everything had settled down, and I had also lost contact with you..."
Remembering those hard times, Su Pan’er’s eyes reddened.
Little Yanyan was too small at that time, no matter how good her medical skills were, there were many methods that were not applicable to infants. The meticulous care she had provided for over a month was tormenting for her.
Su Huarong nodded and quickly helped her sit down.
"You just said that I was too formal, but aren’t you also being overly formal? Where is the need for such formalities between siblings? If anyone should feel ashamed, it should be me! I watched helplessly as you were captured back then, yet I was powerless to do anything..."
Thinking about the situation at that time, Su Huarong felt powerless.
Back then, he despised himself so much. He had brute strength, but he couldn’t save his fourth younger sister and could only watch as she was captured. Fortunately, he later heard that she was still alive, which somewhat alleviated his guilt.
"It was caused by political circumstances, and nobody is to blame. First cousin, don’t blame yourself anymore."
Su Pan’er quickly soothed him, and moved on to talk about the others from the Qin Family’s Mansion.
"What happened to the others in the Qin Family’s Mansion afterward? I have heard that you had appeared in Jun Ruochen’s military camp, but Qin Yi said that he didn’t see you..."
"That’s right, I did go to Jun Ruochen’s military camp."
Su Huarong nodded: "But I didn’t go there on my own. Originally, I intended to find my fourth younger brother-in-law, but I was captured by Jun Ruochen’s men before I could get close and almost got killed as a spy. Luckily, Jun Ruochen saved me..." Speaking of this past, Su Huarong also felt somewhat embarrassed.
As they were speaking, Qin Yi, who had finished tidying up, rushed over.
Su Huarong was naturally overjoyed to see him, and after both of them had greeted each other respectfully, they sat down again.
"Actually, I’m not clear what exactly happened during that time. The Qin Family’s Mansion was surrounded by Qin Zitong’s people, and we couldn’t get any news inside. Later, it was Qin Hong who took us away, and then, he sent me out to find the fourth younger sister. I had doubts about his motives at that time, so when my search for Fourth Younger Sister in the river turned out to be fruitless, I decisively headed north to Chang’an to avoid falling into Qin Hong’s trap. But midway, I had just left the Inn on the day before, only to hear the next day that the whole area around there had been flooded, which scared the life out of me..."
Who wouldn’t be scared?
He had almost come so close to death!
Qin Yi and the others were also startled when they heard about the incident of Zhou Zhenchao blowing up the river embankment.
"The rest of the people from the Qin Family are still with Qin Hong. Originally, I had teamed up with Qin Hong to fight against Zhou Zhenchao’s Great Army. When we captured Zhou Zhenchao, Mr. Jiang swapped Teacher Song for the safety of the people from the Qin Family. But it’s been a while now, and we haven’t seen any sign of the people from the Qin Family yet, I guess that’s because Mr. Jiang hasn’t been able to convince Qin Hong. The people from the Qin Family are still being held by Qin Hong."
