Lianxin covered her face, staring intently at the young lady until the young lady helped her back to Xueyuan. Only then did she come to her senses and anxiously take the young lady's hand: "Young lady, you offended them because of me. They will definitely not let you off the hook."
snort!
Qian Youxue gave a cold snort. She had originally intended to play the victim and find out who had poisoned her, but after what her grandmother had done, it seemed unlikely that she could remain silent any longer.
She pulled Lianxin down to sit, took out a porcelain bottle from her person, poured out the pills from the bottle, and stuffed them into the little girl's hand.
"This...this is a pill, no, no, no...it's too precious, this servant must take it." Lianxin waved her hands repeatedly. Although she didn't know where the pill came from, she knew that the pill had to be bought with money.
"If you want to stay alive and by my side, take the pill and start training your courage from today onwards." Qian Youxue spoke in a commanding tone.
Seeing her mistress was angry, Lianxin shoved the pill into her mouth with trembling hands. She stared wide-eyed at her mistress as if she were a stranger.
Yunhe remained silent, staying close to Qian Youxue. She knew her master wanted to conserve her strength and didn't intend to reveal too much unless absolutely necessary. However, Yunhe now finally understood why her young master was so worried about her mistress. How had her only reliable confidante survived, so timid and subservient?
"Yunhe, starting tomorrow, teach Lianxin some self-defense skills. If she continues to be this weak, this ruthless place will devour us sooner or later." Qian Youxue glanced at Yunhe, then looked at Lianxin earnestly and said, "Lianxin, remember this: you must not reveal anything about this courtyard, including to the Madam. Can you really do that?"
"I...I can do it!" Lianxin stammered, finding it hard to accept the young lady's sudden change.
Especially when she was beating Xiaomian just now, those cold and terrifying eyes of hers were like those of a demon who had walked out of hell. Thinking of that scene, she couldn't help but shudder.
...
On the other side, Qian Yingxue, with a mournful face, threw herself into Aunt Liu's arms and cried loudly, while Qian Yuexue, not far away, also cried with a wronged look on her face.
Aunt Liu and Qian Muxue witnessed the entire scene, and both of them looked very unwell. Qian Muxue had already harbored suspicions about Qian Youxue, and had summoned Physician Huang specifically to see if that face was truly still the same.
Physician Huang confirmed that the face was beyond saving; unless Medicine King Valley intervened, it would be impossible for the face to recover.
However, given this outcome, why did Qian Youxue suddenly change her mind and dare to openly oppose the fourth and fifth brothers?
Could it be that the old lady made some promise, or was it the Su family?
Thinking of this, Aunt Liu frowned, pushed Qian Yingxue away from her arms, and sternly reprimanded, "Don't go looking for trouble with that girl during this time."
Qian Yuexue dared not disobey and could only pout in grievance.
"Mother, she's bullying our daughters like this, why are you still helping her?" Qian Yingxue was furious when she heard this. She wiped away her tears and angrily yelled at Aunt Liu.
Seeing that her mother's expression was not quite right, Qian Muxue gave her fourth sister a look, signaling her not to do anything reckless at this time.
However, Qian Yingxue had long been spoiled and completely ignored her second sister's expression, glaring fiercely at Aunt Liu: "If you don't help me, I'll go find Father!"
