Chapter 984: Chapter 989: People Earn Their Reputation, Trees Earn Their Shade!

Although Jun Ruoxue might not have been meaning anything by it, the way she was staring directly at her own man’s eyes...

It really pissed off Su Pan’er!

"Come!"

Su Pan’er suddenly called out, and Jiu Lan hurried forward to pay her respects.

"Go, find Ke’er for me."

Although Su Ke was young, he had become several times more stable than before! Su Pan’er did not know what Su Ke had been through, but from the way he conducted his affairs, this child was loyal; he would put his all into tasks given to him, striving for perfection!

It wasn’t long before Jiu Lan returned with Su Ke in tow.

"Fourth Sister, did you want to see Ke’er for something?"

Su Ke had clearly become much more steady than before, no longer showing the clingy demeanor of his childhood.

"Right, I’ve called you here today because I have a favor to ask of you. I want you to help me investigate someone..."

Although Su Pan’er had many hands at her disposal, some quite capable, she preferred to entrust this task to Ke’er.

"Investigate whom?"

Su Ke asked directly.

Su Pan’er’s lips barely touched as she whispered, "Jun Ruoxue!"

"Good! I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

Su Ke agreed without hesitation, "What exactly do you want to know about her?"

"Anything will do, but you must rely on someone trustworthy to particularly look into what occurred before and after her marriage, and what exactly happened in Huainan Prefecture."

A person gets their name, a tree its shadow!

She refused to believe that she wouldn’t be able to uncover the truth of the matter!

"Huainan Prefecture? Good!"

Su Ke was decisive, yet he added a few more words, "Fourth Sister, what exactly happened when you were passing through Huainan Prefecture?"

Speaking of Huainan Prefecture caused Su Pan’er’s gaze to turn even deeper.

After contemplating for a moment, she added, "What else could have happened? Just some villains trying to assassinate us, that’s all!"

Exactly what Su Pan’er experienced in Huainan Prefecture and how she came to be in Shengjing were parts of her past she never spoke of, and Qin Yi did not pry further into it.

"Fourth Sister..."

Su Ke obviously wanted to say more but was interrupted by Su Pan’er.

"There’s really nothing to it. Fourth Sister thought of you because you still have some connections here in Shengjing, which is why I’m entrusting this matter to you. Go and investigate quickly, don’t delay important matters!"

Since Su Pan’er had said as much, even if Su Ke wanted to continue the discussion, he had no choice but to take his leave.

However, before leaving, he hesitated for a moment and still decided to mention something.

"Fourth Sister, Ke’er has recently heard that the old Marquis Qin’s Residence has become quite lively these days. I just don’t know if you’re aware of it."

The former Marquis Qin’s Residence had been sealed for several years, standing empty without occupants. That was until Mrs. Qin-Li accompanied Su Pan’er to the capital and, after Su Pan’er fell into the water, Mrs. Qin-Li, along with Su Ke, Little Yanyan, and others, arrived in the capital. Qin Yi then discreetly ordered that they be sent to the Marquis Qin’s Residence—now the Qin Family’s Mansion.

The current head of the Qin Family’s Mansion was Qin Yu, but unfortunately, he was no match for Mrs. Qin-Li. Since moving into the Qin’s Mansion, Mrs. Qin-Li had been living the good life, bullying the rightful master of the house quite shamelessly!

All sorts of rumors spread from neighbor to neighbor until they reached Su Ke’s ears, prompting the tip he gave today.

Mrs. Qin-Li, huh?

Su Pan’er thought for a moment and then understood Su Ke’s meaning.

Considering that she had already planned to leave the palace tomorrow, she didn’t send anyone to check on the matter and calmly got up to make fruit salad instead.

The fruit salad wasn’t finished yet when Little Yan Yan, smelling the fragrance, came over with Little Sugar Bean, eagerly waiting.

"Mother, add more Hami melon and watermelon. Yan Yan likes them, and Little Sugar Bean does too!"

Little Yan Yan spoke sweetly, softly, and tenderly, making Su Pan’er’s heart feel completely melted! She couldn’t help but smile.

"Don’t be hasty, I’ll add some more in a moment. These Hami melons and watermelons have been chilled with ice, eating too much isn’t good for the stomach. If you complain of a stomachache tonight, Mother won’t make fruit salad anymore!"

"No, no, Yan Yan just wants to eat! Mother..."

Little Yan Yan drew out her words.

She also clung to Su Pan’er’s legs and shook them.

"Stop shaking, stop!"

Su Pan’er was utterly charmed by her words!

She quickly laughed and tapped on her little nose, "You little greedy cat! Don’t just stand here, go check, it seems Mother heard Little Sugar Bean crying."

"Okay."

Little Yan Yan hopped and skipped away, but in just a moment she returned, running back, "Mother, Little Sugar Bean is awake! Please make more, just a little more, just a tiny bit more..."

"Mother knows, Mother isn’t deaf, naturally I know to add a little more..."

Su Pan’er responded to her and went back to washing and cutting the fruits.

Little Yan Yan propped her chin up, watching Su Pan’er’s movements without blinking.

"Mother, today Yan Yan took Little Sugar Bean to play in the Imperial Garden, and we met a noblewoman who was collecting flower petals to make fingernails. Mother, how do you make fingernails with flower petals? And what does noblewoman mean?"

Little Yan Yan’s face was full of curiosity.

Su Pan’er’s hands paused, and she looked up sharply at Little Yan Yan. She quickly grabbed Little Yan Yan’s hand and carefully checked her pulse phase.

Only after not finding anything abnormal did she let go of her hand, "Did she approach and talk to you two?"

"No, but she talked to Little Sugar Bean. Mother, you haven’t answered Yan Yan’s questions yet!"

Little Yan Yan spoke nonstop like a chatterbox.

"It’s nothing, you are still young, you don’t need to learn about these things now. When you are older, Mother will teach you."

Su Pan’er answered casually, but the thought of someone daring to collect flower petals in the Imperial Garden implied that the person must be bold. And, as she had used the term ’noblewoman’, it suggested that it must be someone with status in the palace.

"What else did she say?"

Su Pan’er asked, her mind going back to the fact that those women were still in the palace, and Qin Yi hadn’t yet dealt with them, causing her heart to skip a beat. However, it soon calmed down.

He probably just hadn’t had the chance to handle it yet, right?

"She didn’t say much, but that sister said that if I like, I could go to her place in the future, and she can help me apply nail polish."

Little Yan Yan’s face was filled with joy as she recounted the encounter, utterly oblivious to the turmoil in Su Pan’er’s inner heart.

"You are not to go! If you encounter those people again, remember to keep a distance from them. And take good care of Little Sugar Bean too. Do you understand?"

Su Pan’er scolded sternly.

She had to be cautious about what these concubines were thinking. She couldn’t let anyone hurt her two children.
