"What! You actually offended Prince Chai's Mansion?"
When Master Yun heard about this, he was shocked and angry. He wished he could have someone slap him twice, just to wake him up and tell him it was just a dream.
The eldest lady shirked responsibility, saying, "We had originally agreed that Yun Man would be married off after the county lady came to see her, but Yun Man got the news from somewhere and ruined her own face..."
Master Yun's anger was indeed diverted. He roared, "Call the doctor and go to Mingyue Pavilion!"
Mingyue Pavilion
When Master Yun and the Madam rushed in, Xiaochun was feeding Su Man medicine.
Without a word, Master Yun rushed over, threw the medicine bowl to the ground, pointed at Su Man's nose and cursed, "Why are you still pretending here? Tell me, how did you get your face into this state? Hurry and take it back to me. If you lose this marriage, I will kick you out of the house."
Facing Master Yun's accusations, Su Man said calmly, "Dad, you saw your daughter's face become like this. Not only did you indiscriminately knock over my medicine, but you didn't even say a word of concern and directly blamed me?"
Master Yun sneered, "You brought this upon yourself, and you still expect me to show you how you're doing?"
Su Man's eyes were gleaming. "I deserved it? Then, Dad, tell me, what did I do to deserve you abandoning me for over a decade? What did I do to deserve you marrying me off to the sixty-year-old Chai Wang as your concubine?"
The eldest lady's eyes widened, and she said provocatively, "Look, sir, the eldest lady really knows, so she must have done it on purpose."
Master Yun was too lazy to talk nonsense and said to the doctor behind him, "Doctor, take her pulse and see what she used."
The old doctor, carrying his medicine box, knelt before Su Man's bed and said, "Let me take your pulse."
Su Man looked at Master Yun with a lingering glint of hope and expectation in her eyes, but Master Yun was completely ruthless and refused to look at her. The light in Su Man's eyes faded, and she placed her hand on the pulse pillow and said, "Thank you, Doctor."
The doctor covered Suman's wrist with a handkerchief to avoid touching Suman directly.
After a while, the doctor put away the handkerchief, turned around and bowed to Master Yun, saying, "The young lady's pulse is disordered, as if it is a fever, and the symptoms have spread to her face. As to whether it is contagious, it remains to be seen."
Upon hearing this, the lady was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked, "Didn't she deliberately use something to cause this?"
The doctor said, "According to her pulse, the girl has internal heat and poison, probably caused by excessive worry."
Mr. Yun now knew that he had wronged Su Man, but he did not explain. Instead, he asked the doctor, "When will it be better?"
"I'll prescribe some medicine for you. You'll feel better in about a quarter."
"Three months?"
Master Yun sighed, "Thank you for your help, doctor. Come, take the doctor down to claim the reward."
The doctor bent even lower, "Thank you, Master and Madam."
After the doctor left, Master Yun coughed dryly to cover up his illness, "Dad was too anxious just now. You should relax and recover."
Su Man laughed at herself, "Don't worry, Dad. I'm used to it and I won't blame you."
Master Yun frowned. "What do you mean by that? Are you, as a daughter, actually going to blame your father?"
"How dare I."
Su Man's voice rose at the end, revealing a hint of sarcasm. "Even though Dad sent me to the countryside before I was even a month old because of my bad luck, even though I haven't seen you for sixteen years and you'll sacrifice yourself for my second sister's marriage as soon as I come back, even though every time I argue with my second sister, Dad will be the first to blame me..."
Su Man's words not only confused the eldest lady, but also confused Master Yun.
In Master Yun's impression, the eldest daughter has always been a docile daughter. He has never wasted any time on her, nor does he think that she would disobey him one day.
So facing Su Man's questioning at this moment, he felt that his authority as a father was being challenged, and he accused her coldly, "I gave birth to you and raised you, and now you are scolding me, right? Why don't you think about the fact that you were born in the Yun Mansion, which is a great blessing compared to those families who have little to wear. But you, not only are you ungrateful, but when the Yun Mansion needed you to contribute, you even tried to justify your selfishness. How could I give birth to such an unfilial thing like you!"
Su Man had a blank expression on her face, and spoke word by word, "I also wish that you hadn't given birth to me, Dad."
“…”
Master Yun was shocked, and facing Su Man's disappointed eyes, he was speechless.
At this moment, the eldest lady interrupted, "Young lady, how can you speak like that? The master is your father, the head of this family. How dare you be so heartless and ask the master to love you for nothing!"
Master Yun was just a little moved, but in the blink of an eye, he was provoked to anger again. Pointing at Su Man, he said, "Don't you feel that being my daughter is unfair? Well, from today on, the eldest lady's food, clothing, housing and transportation will be treated as servants. No one is allowed to serve her. I want to see who regrets it, you or me!"
After saying that, Master Yun turned away.
The eldest lady pretended to comfort him, "Your father was just angry for a moment, he will be fine in a couple of days, just relax and recuperate, I will help you talk to your father about the rest."
Su Man let out a long "Oh——" and said, "If you have time to watch the fun here, Madam, you might as well think more about how to explain it to King Chai."
"you..."
The lady's sore spot was touched, and she could no longer keep up her hypocritical mask. She said sarcastically, "Okay, I'll see how long you can be so proud!"
...
Perhaps Su Man had offended the eldest lady too much, and that afternoon, Mingyue Pavilion was empty. Except for Xiaochun, all the other maids and servants were sent away.
