Chapter 349: Once Can Be Done, Twice Can Be Done Too

Chapter 349: Once Can Be Done, Twice Can Be Done Too

Knowing the events of her past life, Su Youyue had long realized that she could no longer refuse Xie Yuan.

In the past, she only knew that wanting a child stemmed from the desire to continue one's lineage.

It was Xie Yuan who made her understand.

When you truly love someone, you want many futures with them, you want to have children with them, and you want proof and continuation of your love.

As Yanjing's spring days passed, Xie Mansion remained in perpetual spring, with flowers blooming every day.

The little wolf cub they had rescued had fully opened its eyes, completely black all over, and its belly was always round from drinking dog milk. It seemed too fat for its short legs to support its body, crawling on the ground like a turtle, each leg moving independently.

Jin'er and Chunya often carried it over and tickled its pink belly.

"Is Erhei really a wolf? It looks more like a dog to me."

"I think so too, but since the adults say it's a wolf, it must be a wolf."

Every time this happened, Erhei would grumble, expressing its displeasure.

Su Youyue found Erhei incredibly adorable and couldn't help but pet its round head and wet nose. Erhei also seemed particularly fond of her, not grumbling when she touched it.

However, after learning from her mother that the reason Erhei couldn't walk yet was because it was too fat, she decisively ordered Gao Sheng and Li Ying to start helping Erhei lose weight.

That night, Erhei suddenly had several new siblings competing for milk, and it started crying again, not knowing who the culprit was. When it saw Su Youyue the next day, it seemed to complain to her, grumbling whenever it saw Gao Sheng and Li Ying.

"Miss, Madam is amazing! She can treat both humans and wolves!" Jin'er exclaimed in amazement.

Hearing this, Su Youyue's expression became serious. She had heard similar stories from her mother. Most medicines used on humans are first tested on animals, and then on humans after further trials. Each medicine has been tested countless times before being used to save lives.

Therefore, many medicines that work on humans can also work on animals, just in different dosages.

This is why they need to respect both animals and humans even more, being more rigorous in their medical practices, not betraying their sacrifices.

Su Youyue's attitude towards studying medicine became increasingly serious, and her progress was rapid, far surpassing Jin'er's level.

Seeing this, Lu Xixue couldn't help but think, "No wonder she's my daughter. Not only did she inherit my beauty, but she's also gifted in learning." She wished to pass on everything she knew to her.

Mother and daughter got along very well. In another courtyard, however, Xiao Wangshi and Lu Shuangshuang were not as happy.

Ever since Lu Shuangshuang returned from the restaurant, rumors about her accusing Su Rong spread widely, eventually reaching Lu Sen's ears.

Upon hearing the news, Lu Sen was so angry he wanted to fly back immediately to confront his daughter. Now that he had finally returned, his face was red with fury.

Lu Shuangshuang dared not admit it: "Father, those rumors are false. How could I spread such news! Someone must have overheard me scolding Su Rong and blamed me!"

She thought she could get away with it as she had done before, but Lu Sen's anger was uncontrollable. He slapped her across the face: "Still lying! How did I raise a daughter like you!"

Xiao Wangshi watched in shock, taking a while to react: "My lord, those are just rumors..."

Lu Sen sneered continuously: "Rumors? Did she really think sending Hongxiu to invite people was seamless? How long have you been in Yanjing? There are countless powerful nobles here with eyes everywhere. Do you really think your petty deeds could go unnoticed?"

He pointed at Xiao Wangshi: "Wang Cuiyun, how did I end up marrying a woman who brings disaster to our family and corrupts our children? If you dare cause trouble or use underhanded means against our own family again, get out!"

Xiao Wangshi turned pale, trembling, losing the will to argue. She knew this man well; he meant what he said. If he dared say it today, he would do it tomorrow!

With tears in her eyes, she played the emotional card: "My lord, we've been married for so long. Don't you know me? I'm innocent."

Lu Sen, who usually softened at her tears, was now clear-headed: "Do you really think I don't know who you are? If only I had listened to my parents and never married you!"

With that, Lu Sen stormed off.

Xiao Wangshi stared at his back in disbelief, her body stiff, momentarily speechless.

Lu Shuangshuang was also stunned. She had no idea about her parents' past, and now things were completely out of her control. She began to truly regret meddling with Su Rong...

Now her reputation in Yanjing was ruined, her father didn't believe her or her mother, and there was a huge rift between them. When the news reached Liao Dong, the girls who once envied her would surely mock her!

"Mama..." Lu Shuangshuang asked her mother what to do.

Xiao Wangshi snapped back to reality, her face suddenly filled with resentment. She instructed her maid: "Go find out where my lord has been these past two days!"

Lu Shuangshuang instantly understood. Yes, with her father's simple mind, someone must have told him something!

Soon, the person sent out returned: "Madam, apart from going to the restaurant, my lord has been visiting Lady Su's courtyard, often talking with her."

Xiao Wangshi's face showed no surprise, and she fiercely broke a flower branch: "I knew it was her again!"

Years ago, this sister-in-law almost prevented her from marrying her lord, and later constantly caused trouble for their household, making her lord angry at her. Finally, she managed to deal with her, but now she was back, interfering in their affairs again!

Her eyes narrowed, filled with deep hatred.

If she could deal with Lu Xixue once, she could do it again. Once she dealt with her, Su Zhenyun might be so enraged that he would die. Then, she could ask Old Lady Su about adopting heirs. Would she still refuse?
