Rebirth of the Great Favor: Chapter 51
Chapter 51: Prescription Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
The memory of the delicate little girl with porcelain like skin, her small face, and her dark, bright eyes was impossible to get rid of. Those eyes were like the stars in the night sky. The little girl’s smile was like the warm sunshine in Spring. The little girl was soft and glutinous. The fashionable and innocent little Shen Zhonghua’s first impression of Shen Qi was a fairy-like fragrant and sweet girl.
He remembered what she’d said to him that day, remembered her tiger teeth and the lovely dimples on the corners of her mouth when she smiled. He remembered the limpid, bright light in her eyes and the round cloth doll with flowers she held in her little arms. (tenderflower: So she has dimples…? Does SLX have dimples????)
“This is Dudu.” The little girl noticed his gaze and raised her Dudu generously in front of him: “If you like, you can touch it!”
At that time, ghosts made him outstretch his little hand and touch the top of the little girl’s head, touching her warm, soft hair.
“What are you doing, little brat!” Suddenly there was a shout, frightening little Shen Zhonghua to a jump. The little girl looked back and smiled sweetly. She held her Dudu and ran over as she called the man: “Third older brother!”
Little Shen Zhonghua at that time was timider. He ran away holding the New Year’s money given by the little girl. Afterward, Liu Yue and Leng Xing found him and brought him back to the prince’s palace. He later sent someone to inquiries. The information he received was that the little girl was the young miss of the general that was much doted on.
He hid his own mind and occasionally watched her secretly at the gate, but not frequently. Then later as he grew up, his imperial father had him go to disaster relief to calm the situation. Although it wasn’t the leader, he appointed him to do all the hard work. He constantly moved outside all year round. He needed to learn martial arts and needed to train his own people that died for him then gradually he didn’t go to see her anymore, but he always thought of her.
Thinking that one day, he would be in power. There was no need to be drifted, bullied, and humiliated by others, then he would go to the general’s residence to propose marriage and marry her gloriously and magnificently into the door.
It was just that Shen Zhonghua didn’t know. Soon afterward, the general’s young miss was “missing”. Then later the general couple adopted Su Lianxue as their own daughter. Many years have passed, no matter whether everyone had forgotten Su Tanning, the true young miss of the general, or everyone already felt that no one could find her back. So when mentioning the young miss of the general, the first thing that came to mind was Su Lianxue.
And he actually......
He also acknowledged the mistake......
No matter what happened later, he didn’t dare to think about it. Now thinking about it, the girl standing next to the stone lion at the gate was Su Lianxue.
* * * *
After knowing that Shen Qi’s real identity was Su Tanning the general’s young miss, Shen Zhonghua found out that Su Lianxue was originally an orphan girl that escaped from famine and fled to the city. Her biological mother died halfway on the road. She was taken away by two gamblers that groped about in the dark and sold to a brothel. She ran out when everyone was unguarded and was chased afterward by them. It just so happened that she ran into Su Tanning, carried by her older brother to Lin Jiang Xian to eat fish.
Su Tanning saved her and felt that she was pitiful so she sought the general’s madam to keep her by her side, but she didn’t expect to lead the wolf into the house. One need not guess one also knew. She envied Su Tanning’s family background, envied her brocade clothes, jade meals, and her much dote on life. There was delicious food and interesting things. Even if Su Tanning would share them with her, even if her clothes and fabrics were much better than those at home, she lived and ate with Su Tanning every day, but she still lacked others’ love.
From envy to jealousy and then from jealousy to bitter resentment.
She thought about so many children in the general’s residence. All of them doted on Su Tanning so much only because she was the only girl in the house. She then came up with a dreadful thought. As long as Su Tanning no longer existed, she would be the only girl in Su residence then she could replace Su Tanning instead of receiving a little meager alms from her.
Fact proved. Even if what she thought was wrong she accomplished.
She jumped from the helpless, orphaned girl Xue-er to the adopted daughter of the general’s madam and became the most precious miss of the general.
But she didn’t expect she had mother Qiu sell Su Tanning far away, Su Tanning unexpectedly returned to Chang'an after going round and round and became a servant girl by Shen Zhonghua’s side.
Fortunately, Shen Zhonghua admitted the wrong person. Fortunately, Su Tanning who was also known as Shen Qi was completely ignorant about her past. She didn’t want to get rid of her immediately. Her heart was twisted. She just wanted to torture Shen Qi and torture that once little girl who was much doted on like a princess but didn’t expect......
Shen Zhonghua who always pampered her suddenly changed character. He no longer turned a blind eye to Shen Qi, instead......
Instead, he moved his love and favor for her in the past to Shen Qi.
She wouldn’t allow it!
She wouldn’t allow everything she worked so hard to get taken away by someone else! She was the young miss of the general! She was also the future Wangfei of Prince Xuan’s palace!
* * * *
In the general’s residence, Su Lianxue’s old trick was re-implemented. She had her trusted servant girl look for an opportunity to give Shen Qi, the returned true young miss of the general, Su Tanning medicine. She then looked for an unfamiliar servant girl and had her ask Shen Qi to the side door, saying that Shen Zhonghua was looking for her.
Don’t blame Shen Qi for the easy trust. She knew martial arts herself and didn’t worry about someone else harming her. Moreover, the servant girl had Shen Zhonghua’s jade pendant. She said Shen Zhonghua was inconvenient to show up at the general’s residence because of Su Lianxue’s affair so Shen Qi followed her.
But the more she walked, the more she felt hotter and weaker in her steps, like stepping on cotton.
