Wang Meng and Shitou were also trembling with fear, afraid of hearing bad news.
“Creak.”
The door of the room was pushed open from the inside, revealing a crack. Su Zixuan heard the noise and poked her head out to see who it was. Seeing that it was really her sister, she joyfully pushed the door open and stepped over the threshold.
“Doudou, Mother, she…”
Su Ziqin’s heart hung in her throat, tears swirling in her eyes.
“Mother is fine now.”
Su Zixuan stepped down the steps and comforted her sister, “Sister, I gave Mother a Spirit Pill, and she should wake up tomorrow.”
“Phew.”
The siblings breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
With tears in her eyes, Su Ziqin squatted down in front of Su Hu.
“Sister Qiao, your mother, she’s had a tough life.”
Su Hu wiped his tears, patted his daughter’s shoulder soothingly, his voice choked.
“When she was young, she suffered a lot with your father. She spent ten months pregnant with you and your brother. She didn’t have a proper confinement and left behind health problems.”
“She never complained about your father. Your father knew she felt bad, but our family was too poor at the time. Your father couldn’t earn enough money to get her treatment, so she kept dragging her body down until she could never have a child again.”
“Your mother has no expectations, the only thing she hopes for is for you and your brother to be well, and a person who truly loves and treats you well, to have a happy home.”
“Your father and mother don’t want to force you. If you don’t want to get engaged, we will let you be.”
“Your parents are just worried; when we grow old and leave, you’ll be left alone with no one to talk to…”

“Father.”
At this point, Su Ziqin’s face was covered with tears, sobbing as she threw herself into her father’s arms.
Su Zixuan also listened with a heavy heart, her eyes reddening.
Wang Meng and Shitou felt somber, and patted his shoulder to comfort him in the unique way of teenagers.

Li Xiu’e’s coma alarmed the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion.
Masters of various courtyards braved the heavy snow and visited Quiet Elegance Residence in succession to inquire about her condition.
Old Master was unwell and couldn’t come in person, but he sent his trusted steward and many top-quality medicinal materials. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
All the Lin Clan brothers came, with Lin Jinyu thoughtful enough to arrange guest rooms for the Su Clan to stay overnight.
“Sister, taste the pastries we bought from Hibiscus Pavilion. Tell us which ones you like, and we’ll get more.”
When Lin Jinyun and Lin Jinyang came, they carried various kinds of pastries – dozens in total.
Lin Qingluo’s eyes flashed with gratitude: “Fourth Brother, Sixth Brother, did you buy all the types of pastries from Hibiscus Pavilion?”
“Almost.”
Lin Jinyang was a little regretful, “If I had known the Su family was coming, I should have bought even more.”
“This is more than enough already.”
Lin Qingluo replied with a sweet smile,
She opened a paper bag and pinched a piece of Red Date Chestnut Cake into her mouth.
The chestnut cake was soft and sweet, the sweetness reaching the tip of her heart.
“Is it delicious?”
Both brothers stared at her wide-eyed.
“Delicious.”
Lin Qingluo’s eyes curved into little crescents as she smiled.
“As long as you like it, we’ll buy more for you next time.”
Both brothers were content and their spirits lifted.
The door curtain was lifted from the outside, and Lin Jinxu strode in, his eyes full of concern, “Sister, are you going to stay up all night in Quiet Elegance Residence tonight?”
Lin Qingluo furrowed her brow slightly, revealing a bit of worry, “Sister Ziqin won’t let me stay. She says she can handle it alone.”
“It’s too much for her alone.”
Lin Jinxu, thoughtful as ever, patted his sister’s shoulder to comfort her, “Let’s arrange for two more maids to take turns staying up, so that she can get some sleep as well.”
