Su Qianqian's injury was in a hidden place, so the doctor couldn't examine her directly and instead asked a female physician to come.
Based on the description provided by the female doctor, the doctor prescribed medicine.
After the doctor left and there was no one else in the room, Lord Su finally spoke up: "Old Li just told me that you were carried in by a man. What exactly happened?"
Old Li was the coachman. He was an old member of the Su family and always loyal, so he immediately reported Su Qianqian's fall and injury and her being dragged in by Si Luo to Lord Su.
Upon hearing this, Madam Su reached out and slapped Su Qianqian on the back. Contrary to her previous tenderness, she said with exasperation, "You brat, don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other? How could you let a man drag you in?"
Su Qianqian looked at her with a wronged expression, "I didn't mean for him to drag me in. I was injured, and he meant well. Besides, the place where I'm in pain is so embarrassing. If everyone knew about it while I was outside the gate, I would lose face. In the end, I should thank him..."
Lord Su frowned and asked, "Who exactly is that person?"
"Yes, he has such audacity to touch you." Madam Su was also very angry.
Even though her daughter was injured, the fact that a grown man carried her in would ruin her reputation if word got out.
Thinking of this, Madam Su was very angry.
This daughter was already having trouble finding a husband because she was getting fatter and fatter, and now this incident has caused her even more trouble.
"Mom, don't talk nonsense. They didn't do anything to me, and it was so late, no one saw anything," Su Qianqian weakly defended herself.
Although she wasn't very bright, she knew that Si Luo wasn't the kind of person to act recklessly. He must have considered that it was getting late and that if she kept making a fuss, it would attract attention, which is why he reached out and pulled her up.
"You brat! If anyone sees you like this, your reputation will be ruined!" Madam Su clutched her chest, furious. "Who is that person? You're not going to tell me, are you?"
Su Qianqian glanced at her father's stern face and could only stammer, "Yes, yes, it's Deputy Commander Si..."
Upon hearing this, the couple were both taken aback.
"How could it be him?"
Coming to her senses, Madam Su was both shocked and frightened. She slapped Su Qianqian on the back, "Why did you go and provoke him? I heard he lost an arm..." At this point, she remembered something, her voice stopped abruptly, and she said incredulously, "The person you introduced to your cousin last time, could it be him?"
Su Qianqian nodded and whispered, "It's...it's him..."
Upon hearing this, Madam Su was furious. "No wonder your cousin has such a bad opinion of you, you dim-witted child."
Su Qianqian retorted, "Aside from losing an arm, Deputy Commander Si is a very nice person. My cousin is so old, and he didn't look down on her, but she said such awful things."
"You brat, you're always siding with outsiders! How can you help an outsider like that?" Madam Su was furious and warned, "Stay away from him from now on!"
"No." Su Qianqian refused without thinking. She got along well with Si Lan, and their families lived close by. She would not distance herself from the Si siblings for the sake of her cousin. Besides, it was her cousin after all, so there was no reason for her to distance herself from them.
Madam Su was furious. "You're a young lady, how can you get so close to someone like him? Have you no shame?"
"What's wrong with Deputy Commander Si? Mother, don't talk about him like that. He's already pitiful enough." Su Qianqian sat up anxiously. "Anyway, nobody wants me, so what does it matter? He lost an arm while saving the Empress, and neither the Emperor nor the Empress disliked him. Why are you looking down on him, Mother?"
Madam Su was speechless with shock. When she came to her senses, she was about to hit her when she heard her cry out in pain and collapse onto the bed.
"It hurts so much..." Su Qianqian's eyes welled up with tears from the pain, and she dared not move anymore.
Mrs. Su was both anxious and angry. "You're so stupid, you don't believe me. You knew you hurt your buttocks, yet you still dared to sit up. I hope you die from the pain."
Watching the farce between the mother and daughter, Lord Su was quite helpless and advised, "Alright, let her get some rest."
Madam Su frowned, "What about Si Luo's matter..."
Su Qianqian remembered something and quickly said, "Father, Mother, if you know any suitable girls, please introduce them to Lord Si."
Upon hearing this, Madam Su nearly exploded again. "He's lost an arm. What decent family's daughter would want him?"
Su Qianqian was surprised that her mother viewed Si Luo this way. She was angry and disappointed. "He lost an arm, but it doesn't matter. Don't look at him with such strange eyes."
Just as Madam Su was about to say something more, Lord Su interrupted her, "What are you arguing about? What's there to argue about?"
Su Qianqian whispered, "It was Mother who wanted to make a fuss."
Mrs. Su: "..."
Su Qianqian said, "Mother, you can't just listen to your cousin's words. She's so arrogant. No matter how good a person is, she'll never see them as good. I'll invite Si Lan and Lord Si to our house another day. Once you meet them, you'll change your mind."
Mrs. Su said irritably, "What they do is none of my business. You're not going to marry them anyway."
Su Qianqian was stunned. "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Lord Su looked at his daughter's face, which suddenly turned red, and his heart stirred slightly.
Just as Madam Su was about to say something more, Lord Su stopped her, saying, "It's getting late, let's go back and let Qianqian get some rest."
Madam Su then stood up and instructed Xiao Cui, "Take good care of Miss."
“Yes, Madam,” Xiao Cui replied respectfully.
After her parents left, Su Qianqian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
