Chapter 126 Old Man Su's Fate
Such good fortune was only due to luck. I don't know what Liu and Lian were thinking. They should get the contract sorted out first, otherwise what if they change their minds later?
This is a rare opportunity; if she misses it, it'll be gone forever. She has to make the most of it.
Anyway, she'll make the money, and she won't lose money either.
Liu and Lian exchanged a glance, looking slightly hesitant.
They sensed something was off about Su Yu'e. Why was she being so straightforward and in such a hurry? Was she short of money? No, she wasn't.
In the past, Su Yu'e would have definitely thought about it, hesitated, or even disagreed. Her easy agreement seemed strange.
"If you refuse, then let's just drop it."
Seeing their hesitation, Su Yu'e calmed down and said coldly.
Liu and Lian exchanged glances, and finally Liu spoke up: "What my younger sister said makes sense, so let's draw up a contract."
Urged on by Su Yu'e, the contract was quickly prepared. Su Yu'e had a hint of pride in her expression, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She asked, "When do you plan to take action? I can go and tell Mother tomorrow."
With the contract in hand, Su Yu'e felt much more at ease. This was a business she was involved in, so naturally she hoped to finalize it quickly, make money as soon as possible, and ideally earn a large sum before she got married!
“We already have a good location in mind, we're just waiting for Mother's approval. As soon as my younger sister gets Mother on board, your second sister-in-law and I will act immediately, and we should be able to start making a profit in less than two months at most…”
Lian said with a smile.
Su Yu'e nodded: "Okay, then I'll talk to my parents tomorrow, and you'll give me a share of the profits in two months."
Lian nodded, and then spoke again two months later.
At least for the next two months, she will be much more comfortable.
"Little sister, then we won't bother you any longer."
Liu said with a smile.
Su Yu'e waved her hand; she didn't want to get too close to her two sisters-in-law.
After returning to their courtyard, Lian and Liu dismissed the servants and looked at each other.
"Second sister-in-law, what do you think that child divined for Su Yu'e? She seems a bit different."
Lian was curious about what Su Yu'e had learned that would cause such a big change in her.
Liu was also annoyed. She said indifferently, "Who cares? It's good that things were done anyway. But sister-in-law, shouldn't we take this opportunity to do something?"
Business opportunities are rare; do you really want to squander them on a life of debauchery?
Su Yu'e wanted a stable source of income; if they had it, they would feel more confident.
After a moment's hesitation, Lian said, "Second sister-in-law, this is a rare opportunity. Let's play for a month first and see. If we find a good opportunity, we can start a business. It's always good to have something of our own. But before that, we should eat, drink, and have fun to learn more before we take any action, right?"
Mrs. Liu smiled and nodded: "Then that's settled."
She still longs for the taste of the last time, so enjoying it first and then figuring out how to make money isn't mutually exclusive.
Su Changsheng and Su Changshui have enjoyed themselves for so many years; they never wrong themselves. They deserve to enjoy themselves for over a month.
The two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.
...
August 26th.
As soon as it was light, Qin Jin'an was urged to get up and wash up; she wanted to eat something.
Su Changsheng and Su Changshui had their servants bring them steamed buns and dumplings.
Qin Jin'an ate slowly and methodically.
Su Changsheng and Su Changshui looked anxious, but dared not urge them.
I urged him once before, but Qin Jin'an got angry and refused to eat. It was a lot of work to coax him back, so I had no choice but to put up with it.
After Qin Jin'an finished eating, she patted her round, white belly and said to Su Changsheng and Su Changshui, "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, I'm done eating."
"It's good that you've eaten. Your grandfather is still waiting. Let's hurry over there."
Su Changsheng said with a smile.
Old Su had been waiting agonizingly all day, and he himself had gotten up early to urge them on.
Because of this important moment, the Su family members were all waiting in the main hall.
Old Mrs. Yang grumbled, "Does she think she's the boss? She's been gone for ages, what do you mean she's weak? She's got plenty of energy!"
Su Yu'e lowered her eyes somewhat guiltily, knowing in her heart why Qin Jin'an was feeling unwell.
But how could she possibly reveal the benefits she received?
Beneath the surface, only the Liu and Lian families remained clear-headed.
Old Yang was just venting her frustrations.
When Qin Jin'an arrived, she remained silent and had to put on a kind smile.
"Su Dailai, your grandfather has been waiting for you for a long time."
Old Man Su looked at Qin Jin'an with a kind smile and waved to him.
Qin Jin'an walked over with a smile and examined Old Man Su.
Old Man Su maintained a kind smile throughout, his eyes looking at Qin Jin'an with great kindness, and his face showed a rare hint of gentleness.
His fate was ordinary, just the ordinary life of a farmer, but because of her intervention, Old Man Su became the father of Marquis Anping, Master Su.
If he does not reclaim his blessings, he will live a long life and enjoy wealth and honor, but because of physical pain, he will also enjoy tormenting others.
Qin Jin'an sighed and said, "Grandpa, you only have three years to live. Your leg condition will soon worsen, and you'll never be able to walk again. They'll swell up, fester, and ooze pus. Grandpa will suffer in pain day and night..."
"Wh-what?"
Old Man Su was startled; his kind face froze, and he could no longer smile.
He shivered and said to Qin Jin'an, "Su Dai, then hurry and save your grandfather!"
He doesn't want to die so young, he doesn't want to die from the pain.
He hadn't even had enough of this hard-won life of wealth and luxury, and three years had passed in the blink of an eye. Besides, he had been in pain the whole time, and the thought of it made him feel hopeless.
"Grandpa, if you take what I give you, you won't die too quickly, and your legs won't rot. At most, you'll just stay in the current state, and maybe even feel a little more pain than you do now. Grandpa, do you want to change it?"
Qin Jin'an looked at Old Man Su and asked seriously.
Before Old Man Su could answer, she continued, "Father might be able to find a famous doctor in the capital to cure your leg. You can't ask me for too much; I won't agree to anything else."
Qin Jin'an deliberately put on a stern and cold face.
Her words left people sighing.
Before Old Man Su could answer, Su Changshui spoke up: "Of course your grandfather needs it! Your father can definitely find a famous doctor in the capital to treat your grandfather's leg!"
"Yes, my brother is capable; this is not difficult for him."
Su Changsheng echoed this.
Old Man Su also realized what was going on. He looked at Qin Jin'an and felt that she was just pretending to be indifferent and seemingly uncaring, but in reality she had pointed out another way. She had said that her son could find a famous doctor, so he definitely could.
Old Man Su nodded with a kind smile: "Grandpa needs a change. Once your father finds a famous doctor for Grandpa, Grandpa will get better."
Pain can be endured, but death cannot.
He hasn't lived enough yet; he doesn't want to die like this.
Qin Jin'an looked somewhat sad, but quickly smiled again, walked up to Old Man Su and waved. After doing this, she began to sway and then collapsed to the ground, fainting.
