Chapter 124 Help Him

The most loyal and righteous Liu Yunping hated people like Su Chang'an the most in her life.

He despises ruthless, ungrateful, and opportunistic people.

The Su family did send people to communicate with him, hoping he would fire Qin Tianhai. He was just a bookstore owner, and he bluntly said that if the Su family could find someone with better handwriting than Qin Tianhai, he would fire Qin Tianhai.

The Su family members can't be found.

Then there's nothing he can do.

He's just a businessman; so what if he has beautiful handwriting?

"Many thanks to Brother Liu for your help. I will never forget your kindness."

Qin Tianhai cupped his hands and bowed slightly, sincerely thanking Liu Yun for helping him.

"It's alright, I'll check first, and I'll send someone to South Street to let you know once I find out."

Liu Yun gently helped Qin Tianhai up. He was someone she admired in her youth, and she still admired him now that he was old. She didn't ask for anything else, she just wanted to help him.

His inherent character has already benefited him greatly; isn't this a kind of spiritual cultivation?

Qin Tianhai left the library.

Liu Yun quickly gave the instructions.

Finding out these things wasn't difficult for Liu Yun. With a little effort and money, she could find out by talking to the maids, servants, and boys in various households.

I really hope Qin Tianhai can bring down the Su family.

——

After eating breakfast, Qin Jin'an began writing calligraphy in his courtyard.

Su Changshui and Su Changsheng didn't come, but Old Madam Yang came to invite her, and she refused.

Bai Diandian had brought back a letter, which put Qin Jin'an at ease, but also reminded him to study hard and learn to read.

The little white dot was lying on the side, and it could already recognize words.

Qin Jin'an patted Bai Diandian's head and said, "Bai Diandian, go and eavesdrop, see what bad things they're saying about me, and come back and tell me!"

White Dot is a dog that can recognize simple words. Qin Jin'an was bored in the yard, so he sent it to inquire about information.

Bai Diandian let out a "woof" and got up and ran out.

Qin Jin'an yawned and went back to his room to sleep.

There were only two maids guarding her courtyard, and because they looked down on her, they were both distracted and dozing off.

White Dot was very clever. It first went to Old Yang's and Old Su's courtyard to listen.

Old Su's face was gloomy because of leg pain. He didn't ask the servants to serve him inside, but instead had Old Yang kneel down to massage and knead his legs.

"Old man, are you feeling better?"

Old Lady Yang was in unbearable pain. Behind closed doors, no one knew her suffering and misery. After all, she was the mother of the Marquis of Anping!

But as long as Old Man Su is alive, he will always be above her.

He blamed everything on her.

"What do you mean, 'good'? Are you blind? Or do you have a head? I want to eat you up!"

Old Su gritted his teeth in anger. The leg pain wasn't fatal, but it was enough to torment him and make him wish he were dead!

His knees were swollen and red, and he was in great pain, but because of Old Yang, he had to endure it for another day.

Old Mrs. Yang remained silent with tears in her eyes. Kneeling for so long had made her knees ache, and her headache had subsided for less than two days, but it started to ache again today.

Old Man Su fell asleep in pain, giving Old Madam Yang a chance to catch her breath. Looking at the sleeping Old Man Su, Old Madam Yang's gaze was like that of poison.

If only he were dead! If he were dead, she would be the most powerful person in the Su family! She would never have to suffer anyone's wrath again.

...

Bai Diandian didn't hear anything else here, so she went to other courtyards.

Both Su Jingui and Su Jinbao suffered from neurasthenia, and Liu and Lian, worried about their health, stayed by the children's side to take care of them.

No one spoke, and Bai Diandian ran off to another courtyard.

Because Qin Jin'an took it for a walk several times yesterday, the servants ignored it when they saw it.

"This dog is lucky; it caught that person's eye and now eats and drinks much better than us servants..."

"That's right, who knows how long their good fortune will last? That girl is so gullible, who knows how many years she'll live!"

"It's getting colder and colder, I'm craving dog meat hot pot..."

"Not now. We'll wait until that person dies, then we'll drag them out and eat them. They've been eating so well, they'll be so plump and delicious by then..."

"Yes, yes, it's definitely the best-tasting, hahaha..."

Listening to the servants' malicious chatter, Bai Diandian stopped and watched for a while.

It was very intelligent, but it was also the first time it had heard such words, so it couldn't understand what they meant.

"You damn dog, get out of here! I'm getting angry just looking at you!"

Seeing that it had stopped and seemed to be listening and watching intently, several servants raised their hands as if to hit it.

White Dot immediately turned and ran away.

It stopped again as it passed a courtyard.

Inside was a woman, embroidering something.

The maidservants who served her were terrified.

"Ugh...so annoying."

Su Yu'e embroidered every day, and the blisters and broken skin on her hands kept her in a bad mood. No matter how beautiful the peony was, she felt disgusted by embroidering it like this. She used to think that peonies were beautiful, but now she only felt disgusted by them.

But this was something Madam Li had asked her to do, and she couldn't refuse to do it after agreeing.

She plunged the embroidery needle into the body of the maid beside her: "Useless, useless, all of you are useless!"

What's the use of raising them? They can't help at all.

"Hiss... Miss, spare me!"

The stabbed maid knelt down and begged for mercy; this smooth movement seemed to be something she was already used to.

Su Yu'e stabbed him a few more times before she felt much better.

She stood up and said, "Come for a walk with me."

The maidservant helped him up to accompany her.

Su Yu'e watched a white figure disappear before her eyes, a dark glint flashing in her eyes as she instructed her maid, "Find a way to catch that dead dog for me later."

The maidservant agreed tremblingly.

Su Yu'e walked ahead with her head held high, heading in one direction.

...

Bai Diandian has returned to Qin Jinan's side.

It spoke to her what it heard.

Qin Jin'an frowned: "Dian Dian, you must stay away from these people. They are all bad. If they eat you, they will kill you. You will never see me again."

White Dot now understood what it meant, and it let out a sad whimper; it didn't want to lose sight of its owner.

Qin Jin'an touched the white spot on his congenitally disabled front foot with some heartache: "You can't run fast either, I have to think of a way."

The white-spotted front foot has a congenital defect; this foot hasn't grown much, and the inside of the foot doesn't seem to have any bones, it's soft.

This defect means it will never be able to run very fast in its lifetime.

Qin Jin'an pried open Bai Dian Dian's mouth. Her puppy wasn't a big dog yet, and its teeth weren't sharp enough.

Qin Jin'an sighed, holding Bai Diandian in his arms and muttering, "I'll ask Yuanyuan in my dreams tonight; maybe he can help."

"Su Dai, look what good things your aunt brought you."

Su Yu'e shouted loudly as soon as she entered the courtyard.

Qin Jin'an frowned upon hearing this, but still turned to look at Su Yu'e.

Su Yu'e smiled, but she was extremely malicious inside.

"Auntie, what did you bring me?"

Qin Jin'an asked.

"This little windmill is so much fun!" Su Yu'e took out a small windmill and handed it to Qin Jin'an. She looked at Qin Jin'an with a gentle smile, and after seeing her take it, Su Yu'e smiled and squatted down to ask, "How is it? Do you like it?"
