"ah!"
"Ahhh! She, she, she is so scary, she kills people."
"Murder, murder..."
"She is a murderer, a murderer, catch her, report her to the police, report her to the police!"
"......"
Su Qinghui suddenly heard the voices of so many people talking behind her, and everyone was accusing her of being the murderer. Her face turned pale and she trembled all over.
"How...how did you get up here?"
Everyone was stunned.
How did she get up here? Is the mountain behind Baiyan Temple hers alone? Can she come here but others can't?
"Why do you care how we got here? Whose family are you from? How dare you kill someone?"
"She also said that someone was playing the flute in the wind. It turned out that someone was trying to commit murder. This woman is as vicious as a snake."
"Hey! Isn't this the legitimate daughter of the mighty general's mansion? I heard that she is determined to marry Lin Hong, the son of Lin Geng, the attendant reader of the Imperial Academy. Does the Lin family know that she is such a person?"
"Of course I don't know. This kind of woman says one thing to your face and another behind your back. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, how could you know?"
"Su Qinghui! How could you do such a thing? Don't tell others that you know me next time you go out. You are so scary."
"Who was the person she pushed off the cliff just now? Why did she push him off the cliff?"
As soon as Su Qingran fell off the cliff, she was caught steadily by Chu Yifei. She was panicked and terrified, and hugged his neck tightly.
She closed her eyes and couldn't stop screaming "Ahhhh". Chu Yifei held her, tapped the cliff lightly with her toes, jumped up, and landed steadily on the ground.
"Don't be afraid, it's me."
The familiar voice, familiar breath, and warm embrace finally made Su Qingran open his eyes.
Seeing the big brother whom she had been thinking about for a long time saving her like a god from heaven, she cried out "wow".
The moment she was pushed off the cliff, she didn't feel any regrets, except that she didn't have a good look with her older brother, reminisce about the past, and express her love for him.
This is what she feels most regretful about.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the older brother flew down the cliff and rescued her.
Chu Yifei came up from the cliff holding Su Qingran, and was immediately noticed by everyone. Seeing her crying so sadly and trembling all over, they knew that she was scared.
Yang came over with Chu Xiaoxiao in her arms and signaled to her son, "Put him down first."
[Brother! If you don't let go in front of everyone, be careful that your sister-in-law's reputation will be damaged.]
Chu Yifei paused and put the person on the ground. Yang handed Chu Xiaoxiao to him and she hugged Su Qingran.
"Don't be afraid, kid. The person who just saved you was my son. We all saw you being pushed off the cliff by that woman."
Su Qingran lost her mother when she was young and was frightened just now. In addition, there was a faint scent of milk in Yang's arms, just like her own mother, which made her miss her even more.
Leaning in her arms, he cried loudly as if he had seen his own mother.
If someone knows Su Qinghui, they naturally know who Su Qingran is.
"This is Su Qinghui, the legitimate daughter of General Weiwu's mansion. The person she pushed off the cliff was her half-sister Su Qingran."
"What? They are sisters? What's the grudge? Why do they want to kill someone?"
"There is no hatred. Su Qingran is not favored in the mansion. Su Qinghui wants to marry Lin Hong, the son of the Lin family. I don't know why the marriage has been delayed."
"You can't kill your concubine's sister before the marriage is completed, right?"
"The Su family is very strange. General Su hasn't been back for more than ten years. General Weiwu's wife gave birth to this daughter. The son was adopted from the family. General Su only had two daughters in his lifetime."
Some smart people immediately thought of the key words: "Marriage? Not completed? Are you trying to use the concubine's sister's life to force General Su to return to the capital? If General Su comes back, maybe this marriage will be completed."
"Oh my god! If this is true, then the Su family's daughter is too vicious. No wonder the Lin family didn't marry her. They must have discovered something."
[Alas! If Su Qinghui doesn't get married, she won't be able to hide her pregnancy.]
old lady:"......"
We have to find a way to let everyone know about this! The Su family's daughter got pregnant before marriage. How will the wife of the mighty general face people in the future?
At this time, the Duke of Huguo's Mansion asked to marry the concubine of the Su family. I believe she would agree happily. After all, this is a good thing that can restore the reputation of the General's Mansion.
Yang, who was hugging Su Qingran, was also thinking about how to make Su Qinghui's pregnancy public.
She whispered in Su Qingran's ear, "Child, don't be afraid! The Duke of Huguo's Mansion will not ignore your situation. Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. No matter what others say later, don't say a word and just cry."
Su Qingran was stunned and nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.
On the other side, Su Qinghui fainted after seeing that her plan for the crime had failed. It was unclear whether she was really fainting or not.
Seeing the opportunity, Yang shouted: "The eldest daughter of the Su family has fainted. Is there a doctor? Come and see her!"
In order to make things easier, Su Qinghui did not bring any maids with her when she came to the back mountain with Su Qingran. She let the maids rest in the temple's side rooms, and she came here secretly with her half-sister.
She pretended to faint just to avoid everyone's contemptuous looks, but she didn't expect someone to call a doctor. She panicked for a moment and wanted to wake up immediately, but was afraid of being discovered.
But if she doesn't wake up, what if the doctor comes and finds an extra piece of meat in her stomach?
Then she thought, there might not be a doctor in this desolate mountain area. She would faint for a while longer and get up when a doctor appeared.
"I'm a doctor."
Someone in the crowd responded, walked over, and placed two fingers on Su Qinghui's pulse.
Su Qinghui suddenly opened her eyes and wanted to pull her hand away, but it was too late. The doctor seemed to have felt her pulse.
"Congratulations, Miss Su! You have been pregnant for more than a month, no wonder you fainted."
Everyone gasped and looked at Su Qinghui in confusion, forgetting to speak.
"Do you know how to take a pulse as a doctor? What nonsense are you talking about?" Su Qinghui got up from the ground and cursed at the doctor, "Do you believe I will have someone smash your mouth?"
The doctor was a man in his fifties. He became angry after being scolded by a woman in front of so many people.
"I'm talking nonsense? Humph! I'm not talking nonsense at all. You are obviously pregnant. How could I be talking nonsense? I don't dare to call myself a miracle doctor, but I can still diagnose a simple slippery pulse.
If you don't believe me, how about we go down the mountain and ask the most famous doctor in Kyoto, Tongning Hall, to check it out? Miss, do you dare to come with me?"
"I don't care about you, a crazy old man."
How could Su Qinghui dare to go to a doctor? She knew very well what was wrong with her.
Someone nearby sneered, "Oh my! The wife of the mighty general has always been self-righteous, but I didn't expect that she would raise a daughter with corrupt character and vicious mind."
"No wonder they pushed their concubine sister off the cliff. I'm afraid the Lin family knew her character and deliberately delayed marrying her. She got pregnant before marriage, who knows if the baby in her belly is Master Lin's?"
