Chapter 818: Decisive Action

at all. Before that, because of him holding them down, it was so much easier for us to kill the zombies."Now that he's gone, the surrounding zombies will surely swarm here once they smell his blood. I..."Miss, please rest assured, we will definitely take good care of the house. We will prepare your clothes, shoes, and socks in advance, as for the books, I'll trouble An He with that."

Zǐyān immediately replied.

Although the purple basil next to it was somewhat reluctant, it also knew this wasn't a time for whimsy, so it only reluctantly nodded.

"It's not like I haven't seen you in three years. You can stay at the country estate for two days while you deliver my ink and brushes."

Ripple promised.

Yes, Miss!

Finally, Shiso's little face stopped pulling.

Just at that moment, Aunt Tang Huirong hurried into the courtyard with a doctor following behind. Seeing two young maids attending to Lianyi's changing clothes, her eyes narrowed, and she was about to lash out, but she saw Lianyi coldly staring back at her. Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately changed her expression, saying in a worried tone:

"Ripple, your aunt called a doctor to take your pulse first. We can't hurt your body."

Ripple leaned against the bed, looking at the doctor with the medical bag, and said coldly:

"My good aunt, how did she speak to you She told you to lower the dosage of my medicine, so I recover more slowly. That way you can earn more silver, and she can achieve her ulterior motives"

The ripples' words fell, and Tang Huirong's and the doctor's faces changed. Before the other party could speak, Ripples continued:

"The housekeeper has already gone to invite the doctor from Xinglin Hall. You may go back now!"

The doctor saw that the situation was wrong, so he didn't dare to stay. If he got involved, he wasn't sure if he could escape unscathed, so he bowed directly and turned around and left.

Tang Huirong's face turned a little sour, and she said in a feigned anger:

"Ripple, what do you mean I'm doing this for your own good."

"For my own good To seize the assets of my Su family And you want to marry your worthless son to me If you're not afraid of losing both wife and soldier, have him step into my Su family. I will make his life worse than death."

I suggest you act civilized, quietly attend my parents' funeral and then leave. If you don't know your place, I have plenty of ways to deal with you.

The head of the Su family arrived in a short while. There's no need for an outsider like you to meddle in the Su family funeral, just return to your guest quarters and don't make things worse by embarrassing yourself later on."

The ripples' words were quite rude, and their eyes held blatant contempt.

"I'm your elder!"

Tang Huirong's face had already turned pale, and she screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Ancestors Do you have an ancestor like this While I was unconscious in bed, you conspired with that fool Tang Zijun to marry into the Su family, manipulate me, Su Lianyi, and then turn the Su family's wealth into your Tang family's. How stupid do you think I am to invite a wolf into the house"

"You"

"Mrs. Tang, please return to the guest courtyard and do not disturb our young mistress as she rests."

Ziyān also said coldly.

Tang Huirong still wanted to pester, but at this time, Su Guanta walked in with a doctor. He ignored the people around him and said to Lian Yi:

"Miss, Doctor Liang from Xinglin Hall has arrived."

"Thank you for your help, Dr. Liang."

Ripples said softly.

Dr. Liang nodded, then took out his pulse pillow and began to take Ripples' pulse. The room fell silent all at once, and Tang Huirong did not leave, waiting for the diagnosis.

Dr. Liang felt Lian Yi's pulse while asking her some questions. After half an hour, he put away the pulse pillow and began writing prescriptions, making two copies. He then handed them directly to the steward.

Miss Su must have been shocked by the news and suffered a sudden attack of anger, which caused her to vomit blood. But vomiting blood actually helped to clear her blocked meridians, so this is a good thing. Now, the most important thing is to avoid overthinking. As long as you keep your mind calm and take the medicine I prescribed, you'll recover in seven days.

Doctor Liang said.

"Thank you, Dr. Liang."

Ripples glanced at the purple smoke, and the purple smoke immediately handed a pouch to Dr. Liang. The other party directly tucked it into his sleeve and stated that if he felt unwell, he could find him again. Then, he was sent off by Zisu.

Tang Huirong standing on the side, her face constantly changing expression. After the doctor left, she was about to speak when she heard a commotion coming from the front yard.

The woman in charge at the front gate hurried in, entered Liàn Yī's room and curtsied before speaking.

"Miss, the tooth lady has arrived. The steward told me to fetch the contracts of these people who are being sold."

The ripples nodded, addressing the purple smoke:

"Get it from my mother's room."

"Yes!"

Tang Huirong's face changed color after hearing this. She stepped forward and blocked Ziyan's path, asking Lianri:

Ripple, why are you selling people now

If I don't sell them now, will I just have to keep supporting these big-hearted people until they betray me

Aunt, this is the Su residence, not your Tang family. Don't stop my people from doing their work.

Ripples chuckled, then said to Su Guanjia:

"Su Guanta and Ziyan go together. If anything is missing from my mother's room, I'll report it to the authorities directly. After all, it won't be me who loses face."

Yes, Miss!

Tang Hui Rong was truly flustered now, she knew her niece wasn't easily fooled and immediately tried to rectify the situation:

“The box containing the indenture is in my temporary keeping. It’s not that I’m afraid you, being young and inexperienced, might faint from shock or bleed yourself out. I'm worried about unscrupulous people taking advantage of the situation while you're distracted. Please understand your great aunt's good intentions.”

"Fine, I'm too lazy to listen to your explanation. All the sale deeds for my Su family are registered with the government office. You stole them for nothing, and you better get ready to eat prison food."

R ripples said lukewarmly.

"Madam Tang, please come in!"

Su Guanjia left with Tang Huirong, his face grim and the housekeeper dragging her out of Lian Yi's room.

Tang HuiRong's face was grim, she cursed and spat, but she also knew that she couldn't win against such powerful people. If she really reported them to the authorities, she wouldn't be able to show her face in public anymore. She could only reluctantly take the box containing the deed of sale.

"Zǐsū, go to Tang Zǐjūn's place and bring back everything that belongs to the Su family. Don't leave a single thing behind. Then, in front of him, reward the guards in the mansion."

Ripple took a sip of the tea Purple Smoke had brought her, and softly instructed.

When Zi Su heard this, his eyes lit up. He agreed with a sound and ordered someone to find trouble for Tang Zi Jun. He had wanted to deal with that little scoundrel for ages.

Ziyān hesitated for a moment, then finally said,

"Miss, that's not right,"

"There's nothing wrong with that. When dealing with such people, you better knock them out in one go, otherwise they'll keep pestering you endlessly."

She handed the teacup to him.

"Yes, Miss."

At this time, the young page An He scurried over to Ripple.

"Miss, the third and fifth grand aunts of the Su family have arrived and are currently in the front hall."

"Take me to see them."

The ripples immediately ordered.

Purple smoke quickly dressed the ripples in mourning clothes, inserting white flowers into her hair bun, and then watched as the two went to the front hall to greet people.

Su Clan ripples, greetings to both elders!

Ripple, with An He's support, entered the room and bowed deeply to the two elders.

"Good child, get up! It's hard for you!"

Both the Third Grandmother and the Fifth Grandmother were over sixty years old, but they were both vigorous and bright-eyed. Seeing Ripple's pale face, they didn't let her finish the grand salute, and had their juniors help Ripple up.

Only then did the three old women ask in a soft voice:

"Ripples, I heard you vomited blood and fainted after hearing the bad news. How are you holding up right now"r's old case. Yang Ziyixing alleged that Wei Xinyi deliberately approached him under the guise of being Anna, a Chinese businesswoman's daughter, and took advantage of the situation by placing cash in...
