Rebirth of the Great Favor: Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Falling Through and Standing Exposed (2) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.

“Impossible!” Su Yanling rebuked loudly as he flushed with anger. They have lived together for more than a decade. He had long treated Su Lianxue as his own younger sister. The same was true for the second young master. Looking at this mother Qiu, a human wasn’t a human and a ghost wasn’t a ghost. They feared it was a trick under tortured and asked further: “Xue-er is about the same age as Little Seven. Little Seven was just a little child when she went missing and so was Xue-er. How could she has such a shrewd mind about how to find you?!”

What mother Qiu said was doubtful or normal people wouldn’t believe that a 3- or 4-year-old child would be so cruel and vicious that, come up with such a hidden, harmful method.

“Little one doesn’t know...... but little one dare not utter lies again!” Mother Qiu shuddered all over: “It was this girl who found me in the beginning. When we were facing the second meeting, it was at the agreed place on the bank of the river behind Zhu Que alley. At that time, she brought a little girl wearing a pink top and a skirt.”

(T/N: a picture of a top and a skirt.)

“When Little Seven was lost, she was indeed wearing a pink top and a skirt.” Su Sanlang and Erlang said novelty.

“You talked nonsense! You’re clearly framing me!” Su Lianxue stood up straight. Her eyes opened so wide as if doing this she wouldn’t be suspected: “According to your statement, the one who let you sell Little Seven was simply the same little girl too! How can you say it was me?!”

Su Lianxue was nothing more than a dead duck. She thought the angrier and aggrieved she was, the more they believe she was bitten by evil people and falsely accused.

“Little one has evidence!” Mother Qiu shouted. Her teeth were all covered with bloodstained. It may be assumed she had suffered severe internal injuries. Mother Qiu coughed loudly: “Fortunately, this little one kept the evidence...... cough cough......”

Shen Zhonghua’s hand clenched into a fist behind his back. There was no need for his instructions. Liu Yue had already brought up the evidence.

“This......” When several Su young masters saw it, their brows were all twisted but Su Lianxue staggered backward.

This evidence was also an embroidered handkerchief. Compared to the one embroidered with the Queen of the Night flower, this embroidered handkerchief was much cleaner, but it also became obsolete due to its old age. This embroidered handkerchief also came from mother Su’s hands. It embroidered a cluster of pear flowers. When she was a child, Su Lianxue thought Little Seven’s embroidered handkerchief was beautiful and her heart envied. Mother Su felt pity for her and Little Seven also liked her, so she embroidered this snow like pear flowers for her.

“Why is this handkerchief with you here?” The speaker was mother Su. Her voice was weak, but with irresistible deterrence power. She looked weak as a willow in the wind, holding Shen Qi’s hand tightly was trembling at this moment.

“At that time...... this little one was somewhat hesitant...... This is, after all, a girl from a big family. This little one has suffered a loss once, so......” Thinking of this, mother Qiu howled in grief and expressed great regret: “Blamed everything on this little one’s father who was waiting for money to take medicine. Seeing that two little girls were good to fool, only by this...... only by this was I possessed to do such immoral things!”

Mother Qiu added: “This handkerchief was exactly this so-called Miss Su who saw this little one hesitant so she took it out. She took off all her jewelry and hair ornaments for this little one and urged this little one to immediately take the child away and stuffed them all to this little one!”

Mother Qiu also said: “At that time, the bag of jewelry she gave to this little one had a pair of earrings exactly the same as the girl Little Seven. This little one remembered clearly! Because the child’s ears weren’t pierced so the two earrings use ear clips!”

“You talked nonsense! You talked nonsense! You talked nonsense!” Su Lianxue couldn’t hold back blaming. She couldn’t pretend to be calm anymore. She was replaced by the irritable and driven mad look when she was angry at the servant girls in private: “You think relying on your mouth, you can frame me with these scattered things? You certainly know that I’m the young miss of the general!”

“You’re not!” Mother Su shouted in a low voice.

There was a moment of silence in the hall. Shen Qi wasn’t clear why. At the same time, the panic in her heart wasn’t as much as Su Lianxue, who had been torn down by a conspiracy. But fortunately, she didn’t have these memories, and her heart as if beating like a drum was also like an outsider.

“Mother......”

“Wife......”

No one expected that mother Su, who had always been silent would open her mouth at this time. What was even more unexpected was that she had always been weak and docile, but the sound of low shouting was full of anger.

“You’re not.” Mother Su repeated the same emphasis again.

“Mother......” Su Lianxue was a little stunned. It was unknown whether the tears that crossed her cheeks were real or fake.

“I’m not your mother either. Even more, didn’t bring up such a poisonous mind daughter like you......” Mother Su clasped Shen Qi’s little hand firmly. Her eyes looked toward Su Lianxue were full of coldness and disappointment: “In Su’s residence, there is only one young miss of Great General Su. It was exactly Little Seven, my daughter. My precious daughter, Su Tanning who was born ten months pregnant! It’s not you Su Lianxue!”

“Mother...... it’s really not me! Don’t believe this person’s self lies!” Su Lianxue made a “thud!” sound as she knelt on the ground. She originally wanted to fall in front of mother Su but was blocked by father Su. Su Lianxue opened her eyes widely, looked up, and saw the man who was once extremely doted on her. He gave her these gorgeous silk satins, gold, silver, and jewelry as she enjoyed its endless glory and riches. She foolishly cried out: “Father......”

(T/N: rónghuáfùguì is an idiom literally means: glory, splendor, wealth and rank.)

In the end, there were still feelings. (tenderflower: I won’t have any feelings for a scheming b*tch! If not her, will you lose your daughter?!?!) In the years when Little Seven was absent, the Su family almost regarded Su Lianxue as their daughter and younger sister. Mostly it was also to shift sentiment.

Su Wulang that looked like father Su also opened his mouth. He couldn’t bear to see Su Lianxue weep like this and pleaded: “Father, things need to be investigated clearly. Lianxue is also an adopted daughter you and Mother recognized. One can’t just listen to outsider’s words.” (tenderflower: lmao his prince is so worthless...)

Father Su was comparatively cool-headed and said: “Words are reasonable.”

“I’ve found my daughter, found my Little Seven......” Mother Su sobbed spasmodically and immediately looked at Shen Qi, smiled and wept. She seemed to determine Shen Qi was exactly Little Seven. She believed firmly that it was Su Lianxue who found someone to sell Little Seven. Now in addition to anger and hate, she was even more disappointed.

She no longer looked at her, only reached out to gently embrace Little Seven and said to her: “Little Seven, let’s ignore her. First return home with your mother, okay? Your room is still the same as before. Every year on your birthday, your parents and brothers will put the gifts meticulously prepared for you in your room, waiting for you to open them yourself. And there’s also New Year’s money every year. Your parents have saved a lot for you......”
