The Fourth Lady

Chapter 4 First Encounter

Just as Qingyan was about to carry out her course of action, a dignified voice was heard.

"What's the matter for this clamor here?"

However before Qingyan could even reply, Su Qingyuan's drenched body was thrown up ashore. Su Ming watched as his daughter was rescued ashore and respectfully said to the young man next to him while smiling, "Thank you for your trouble, Shizi*."

(*TN: This is a title not a name, this title is granted to the appointed successor, usually a son, of a Prince or Lord, who are usually related to the royal family - Since there's no english equivalence I've left it as is.)

Su Qingyuan glared at Xiahe who was next to her, opening her mouth in discontent as a slap flashed across Xiahe's face, "This lowly servant*, didn't you see me fall into the water?"

(*TN: equivalent to calling her bitch)

Xiahe knew that she was in the wrong herself, so she only covered her reddening cheeks as she stood to the side.

"Such beauty, how could I not be willing to save." The young man didn't put his line of sight on Su Qingyuan, but turned his head to look towards Su Ming, "I presume this must be Sire's daughter, she's grown quite elegantly."

Su Ming just realizing just how rude Su Qingyuan's action was earlier, he looked to the young man apologetically, "I apologize for having Shizi see such an embarrassment, this is my daughter Su Qingyuan." He pointed to Su Qingyuan with flattering smile. Afterwards, when he looked to Qingyan, there was clearly a bit of disdain in his eyes, "this is the daughter of my elder brother, the Dingguo* General."

(*TN: his nobility rank title plus his position as general)

Qingyan completely ignored that smudge of disdain in Su Ming's eyes. She looked the to young man before her and bowed, "Please to meet you, Shizi."

"Just what happened earlier? Yuanyuan, why did you fall into the water." As he said this, Su Ming placed his sight on Su Qingyan that was to the side, that look was like as if he was about to swallow Su Qingyan whole.

"Second uncle, I was just coming to walk in the gardens with my two maids after eating, who knew I would just happen to witness big sister carelessly fall into the water." Qingyan replied looking to Su Ming while grinning, "Unfortunately, neither my servants nor I could swim." With just a few words, she was able to cleanly push away all the blame.

As Su Ming listened to Qingyan, he glared at her, then glancing at Xiahe, he impatiently said, "Hurry up and take her to go change."
