The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 59

Listening to Deng Yan's words, Qingyan smiled, "Naturally I know she wants to deal with me, but as for whether she will succeed or not, I don't know."

Just one python is more than enough to deal with those so called 'bad people'. Although, probably only the people of the Jingguo Marquis manor were willing to put in such effort for Ning Siyao.

However, she didn't mind having a little fun with the people of the Jingguo Marquis manor. As for how the silver python was going to deal with those people, she didn't know.

"Fourth sister, that book of yours, can you let me borrow it?" Su Qingxue saw a book of poems placed on the small table; her eyes looked to Qingyan with expectation.

Qingyan casually placed the book into Su Qingxue's hands. "If fifth sister likes it, why don't I just give it to you?"

Su Qingxue didn't have the luxury to read this kind of book. Children of concubines like her, no matter how much they liked to read, were not allowed to enter the study. So at times like these, she was especially jealous of Su Qingwen. She'd always thought that only legitimate children like Su Qingwen were most suited to read these kinds of books.

She really wanted to leave the Su manor very much, to obtain her own place in this world. Then return to the manor to take Yiniang with her, never staying in this dreadful Su manor ever again.

"Thank you fourth sister." Su Qingxue held the book as if it was some treasure.

Qingyan very much liked the girl before her. In this girl's eyes, there was something unexpected, and that was perhaps she too very much hated the Su manor. Or rather, she simply didn't want to stay there, only for the sake of Deng Yan was she willing to confine herself there.

For Deng Yan to have this kind of daughter, only meant that Deng Yan educated them very well. And not everyone was rude and arrogant like that Su Qingting, who regarded Ning Siyao as her real legitimate mother and neglected the birth mother that birthed her and raised her.

"If fifth sister likes these books, after we return from Ganyun Temple, you're welcome to frequent my yard." Qingyan said as she lifted her hand and rubbed Su Qingxue's head. "Does fifth sister like the Su manor?"

Su Qingxue understood the underlying meaning in Qingyan's words. Deng Yan listened and also directed her gaze to Su Qingxue. Su Qingxue looked to the two of them and shook her head. "I don't like the Su manor, the people here are unpleasant. Mother is my birth mother, yet I can't call her 'mother'."

Deng Yan covered her mouthed as she listened to Su Qingxue's words. Just how did she give birth to such a daughter, one that was so considerate of her. If in the beginning, she wasn't wholeheartedly set on revenge, she could have used an easier identity, and not trapped in a cage like the Su manor.

"Yiniang, don't worry. If the Su manor really no longer existed one day, I will definitely protect fifth sister and Cong'er." Qingyan looked to Deng Yan still with a smiling face.

Su Qingxue liked this kind of Qingyan; she was approachable. In her memory, never has anyone regarded illegitimate children like her as people. Every time, they were looked at with cold mockery. Even if she felt wronged inside, in order for Yiniang to live a bit more easier in the manor, she would never mention these things.

The former Su Qingyan was also among them, but the Su Qingyan now was willing to say things like that.

If an illegitimate daughter could receive the protection of a legitimate daughter, what kind of honor must that be. Or rather, since they weren't biological sisters, how could she deserve this kind of treatment.

"Fourth sister, why do you want to help mother, little brother and I." Su Qingxue met with Qingyan's eyes and asked. That tone was cautious as if she was afraid of touching Qingyan's bottom line.

Su Qingxue knew, everyone has their own bottom line; Su Qingyan was no exception. The former Su Qingyan had always mocked them, along with Su Qingyuan and Su Qingwen, but now......

"Fifth sister, if one day, I could overturn this Su manor, are you willing to stand on that path with me." Qingyan looked to Su Qingxue and said with a smile.

Obviously, Su Qingxue didn't think Qingyan would say something like that. Hearing the serious tone, she nodded, "I'm willing, I'm willing to stand on the same path as fourth sister."

Qingyan was very satisfied with Su Qingxue's reply. When she looked to Deng Yan, she had a faint smile on her face, "Yiniang's daughter really does take after Yiniang."

"Fourth miss, for you to help us like this, I too can not thank you enough." Deng Yan looked to Qingyan and earnestly said, "If it wasn't for your help last time, I wouldn't have known how to deal with Chai Yiyun's schemes. I just ask to live my days peacefully."

Qingyan held Deng Yan's hand, "Yiniang don't worry, I will fulfill this dream of yours."

Even now, Deng Yan still didn't fully understand what kind of person Qingyan was. In the Su manor, the only one she felt was her family was probably the old madam alone, and now they were also considered Qingyan's only family in the manor.

During the entire shaky ride, Su Qingcong had been buried in Deng Yan's arms sleeping ever since he got on the carriage. All the way until they hit a rock, did he finally hazily wake up. He rubbed his blurry eyes and called out for his mother, "Mother, I'm hungry."

Deng Yan hadn't prepared any food for them. It wasn't because she couldn't, but rather it was because at the time, they didn't have their own carriage. Thus, Deng Yan wasn't able to bring any food with her.

When she heard this, Qingyan opened a small cabinet to the side, inside were three containers. Opening one of the containers, it was precisely Su Qingcong's favorite red bean rice cake.

Qingyan took out the cake and placed it in Qingcong's hand, "If Cong'er is hungry, then eat this."

Seeing the cake in Qingyan's hand, Qingcong accepted it without even thinking. At the same time he took a bite, he still didn't forget to say his thanks.

In the past, her Ning'er and Jing'er was also like this. How great it would be if they were still alive, but how could Qilian Qingyi that evil woman easily let go of her children.

At the same time, a group of men dressed in black lie waiting near the route to Ganyun Temple. This area was deprived of human habitation, so wanting to kidnap a young girl was not a problem. Furthermore, the other party had offered such a high price.

"Boss, I think those carriages ahead must be from the Su manor. Do you know which horse carriage is the fourth miss's?" A man in black asked in a low voice.

The head man nodded, "I heard from the buyer that the one in the lead is the fourth miss's carriage. There's even plum blossom fretwork on the carriage, it must be the right one."

A man hearing the boss say this, chimed in with a mouth full of saliva, "Boss, I heard that the fourth miss is as beautiful as a delicate flower. How about boss play with her first after we kidnap her. After you get bored of her, you can give her to us. We've never tasted soft and tender noble ladies before.

The boss heard this and felt what they were saying also made a lot of sense. These noble daughters were all delicately raised, they for certain must taste better than the girls of the Yi Honglou.

The boss licked the dripping saliva from him lips and lecherously said, "Then it's set, once I'm done playing with that fourth miss, I let you guys have some fun."
