When the doctor said this, other members of the Su family also arrived.

The second master of the Su family, Su Chengyan, was kneeling beside the old lady's bed, while the third master, Su Chengxun, and his wife, Hai, were also standing by.

The younger generations also rushed over after hearing the news, including the second young master Su Yuanqing, the third young master Su Yuanyi, the second young lady Su Xiangling, and the fifth young lady Su Zhilan.

The atmosphere in the room was tense and depressing, and everyone looked at Doctor Xu nervously. The last time this happened at home was when the old man passed away.

Hearing Doctor Xu say that the old lady's illness was not serious, Su Shunci subconsciously shrank her shoulders.

If my grandmother died like this, would it be considered that she was angered to death by me?

No matter how powerful a teenage girl is outside, she would feel panicked when faced with such a matter of life and death, and would unconsciously lean towards Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu squeezed her palm, as if to say that she was there. The silent comfort made Su Shunci feel a little relieved.

At this time, Doctor Xu was still negotiating with Su Chengye, saying that his medical skills were limited and he really couldn't prescribe a prescription that could bring the patient back to life.

As for the cause of the illness, it is nothing more than old age. Today, he was so angry and frightened that he suddenly developed an emergency.

Su Qingyu thought for a moment, then turned to Zhenzhu and said, "Go back and ask Wenzhu to take the Third Master's invitation and ask Liu Yuanzheng to come over."

She had no feelings for the old lady, but today's incident was somehow related to Su Shunci. She didn't want this little girl to be accused of angering her grandmother to death. Even if no one was held responsible, she would not be able to have an easy life.

Besides, how come no one is holding it accountable?

After Feicui turned around and left, everyone retreated to the banquet room outside. The second wife He and the third wife Hai were left in the room, as well as Nanny Yuan who was beside the old lady.

As soon as Su Chengye walked out, he raised his voice, pointed at Su Shunci and cursed: "You evil thing, look how mad you made your grandmother."

"If your grandmother gets into trouble because of you this time, you will not be able to escape the blame even if you die in front of her bed."

"How could I have given birth to a daughter like you who has no sense of shame, is disobedient and unfilial."

Su Shunci was full of grievances, but she didn't say a word in reply. She was already frightened out of her wits because her grandmother's life or death was uncertain, so how could she say anything else?

The second master, Su Chengyan, also echoed, "If anything happens to mother, I won't forgive her."

Su Xiangling had always been at odds with Su Shunci, and when she thought about how she would have to observe mourning if her grandmother really died, she became even more resentful of Su Shunci, and cursed, "What a jinx."

However, the third wife's daughter, the fifth lady Su Zhilan, walked up to Su Shunci and said softly, "I believe that the fourth sister is not such a person."

Su Qingyu was so angry that she walked past Su Shunci and stood in front of Su Chengye.

"I want to ask father, when your own daughter was humiliated, did you protect her?"

"When others wrongly accused her, did you find out the truth for her?"

"Faced with my grandmother's forced marriage, did my father ever really consider my fourth sister's happiness?"

Su Qingyu spoke in a calm tone, with a hint of sarcasm on her face, and shook her head slightly.

"You didn't. You never thought about us in all these years."

"Not once has he stood in front of us like a father who stands tall and proud."

Even in her previous life, she tacitly allowed Cheng Ruijin to replace her.

Rather than saying that Su Qingyu was standing up for Su Shunci, it would be more accurate to say that she was standing up for herself in her previous life.

Blood ties are sometimes a blessing and sometimes a shackle.

Su Chengye's face turned red when he was questioned by Su Qingyu. It was not a decent thing to be scolded by his own daughter in front of him.

Naturally, he would not reflect on the fact that he had done something wrong. He just thought that his daughter had become more and more arrogant and rude.

"Your grandmother's life or death is uncertain at the moment. What's the point of saying all this?"

Su Qingyu's words just now were also said when she remembered her previous life. She regretted it after she finished speaking. Knowing that this father was selfish and had no opinion, what was the point of saying these things?

It is really necessary to investigate this matter now. Even if my grandmother really can't make it, Aci's reputation must be cleared.

Since Emperor Taizu, the Great Zhou Dynasty has always ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety. If the reputation of Ah Ci angering her grandmother to death spreads, her life will be ruined.

Su Qingyu was very quick, and before the imperial physician arrived, the entire process of the incident was clearly laid out in front of everyone.

The servants at Qingxinju can confirm that the Fourth Young Miss had been under their noses before she came to Songhetang.

Madam Li from the sewing room confirmed that the bellyband was indeed new and was taken back by Jinyun in the morning.

A few servants who were sweeping the floor had seen Gu Jinsong hiding in the grass. They said that not long after that, they saw Jinyun limping back to Qingxinju.

After the testimonies were laid out before everyone, Su Qingyu asked in a cold voice, "In your opinion, father, how should we deal with people who use foul language in the inner house and attempt to discredit the reputation of the women in our family?"

Su Chengye was angry that Su Qingyu was serious, and secretly scolded Gu Jinsong for being shameless. But facing Su Qingyu's inquiry, he hesitated.

The people in the Gu family are the apple of my mother's eye. If I really punish them, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain myself when my mother wakes up.

Su Chengye is like this. No matter what happens, he weighs the pros and cons first, and then considers whether the old lady will be angry.

While he was deep in thought, the third and fourth wives of the Gu family rushed in.

Both of them looked unhappy, especially the fourth wife of the Gu family, who started crying as soon as she came in.

"We came here with good intentions to celebrate my aunt's birthday, but we have been embroiled in misfortune. My son was beaten beyond recognition. Is there still law?"

Su Qingyu scolded sternly: "Why are you crying? Grandmother is seriously ill, don't cry here."

No matter which family you belong to, it is taboo to cry like this when there is a patient. It is extremely unlucky.

When the third wife of the Gu family heard that the old lady was also seriously ill, she frowned and said, "Aunt is angry, right? How can Aunt's body bear such a commotion? If the two masters of the family knew about it, I don't know how distressed they would be."

"And Jinsong, my aunt loves him the most. Now the two of them, one is injured and the other is sick. With such a big incident, my cousin has to take charge of them."

These words actually implied that he wanted the Su family to give an explanation to the Gu family.

Su Qingyu laughed out of anger and called the butler Su Zhong in directly.

"Uncle Zhong, kick out all the people in the Gu family. If you can't kick them out, just beat them out."

He then said to the two ladies of the Gu family, "You are stirring up trouble in the mansion and condoning Gu Jinsong's evil deeds."

"Now my grandmother is in danger of life or death because of you. You are still making nonsense outside my grandmother's house, trying to confuse right and wrong."

"We dare not marry such relatives."

With just a few words, Su Qingyu blamed the Gu family for the old lady's illness.

The two ladies of the Gu family were horrified, and the fourth lady Gu stepped forward and tried to pull Su Qingyu.

"What right do you have to chase us away? You are a married lady, how can you still be the head of the Su family?"
