When the sisters saw their eldest sister was about to suffer a loss, their fear faded into the background, and they rushed to stand in front of Su Wen. Even more amazing was that Su Xue whipped out a kitchen knife from who Imows where and raised it threateningly.

Neither Su Xuewu nor Su Xueqiang took advantage of the opening presented by Ma Xiulan to engage Su Wen or sisters.

What if they were the unlucky ones to meet the edge of Su Xue’s knife?

Despite the tense stand-off, Su Wen was not nervous. She was in such a good mood that she even sat down to observe how Su Xue handled herself and the kitchen knife she had brandished. Su Wen was almost… serene.

This time, her Fourth Sister, Su Xue, out of all the others, had shown herself to be the most courageous.

“Stop! Stop!” Third Grandma shouted angrily, “Stop acting like brigands and lawless barbarians! Su Wen, are you trying to rebel?”

“No, I am not; I just want justice to be served.” As Su Wen spoke, she revealed an enigmatic smile. Bending slightly, she pulled out a slightly smaller kitchen knife she had hidden in her clothes and laid it across her lap. It was so great of a shock that no one knew what to say!

This, this… Had she foreseen this altercation and come prepared?

“Big Sister, you…”

“If I had known earlier, I would have done the same as Big Sister.”

“When did you find the time to squirrel one away?” Su Xue gasped. She had brought the kitchen knife along because she did not want to be beaten again; she had had enough. Not wanting to endure the unjust abuse of her elders, Su Xue brought the knife along, ready to use it to defend the land her Big Sister had gone to so much trouble to obtain. She would not allow her family to be looked down upon by these sharks parading in human flesh.

If they accepted the wrongs done unto them now, they would continue to be bullied forever.

Indeed, Su Xue’s sudden outflowing of courage was spurred by Su Wen’s actions the previous night. Unbeknownst to all, she had seen her Big Sister start the fire which Tian Gang and Tian Yong had leaped into. She also saw it when her eldest sister stamped down on Tian Yong. Something had sparked in her then, a sense of enlightenment washing over her.

Su Xue finally understood how Fifth Sister had changed so abruptly, despite having only spoken a few words to Su Wen when she returned – it was almost as if Fifth Sister had become a different person! She read non-stop, uncaring about anything else but her studies. She even persuaded their homeroom teacher to file the necessary forms for her to take the college entrance exams to become a university student.

Now she understood. After seeing all that had occurred that night, Su Xue found the clouds that covered her eyes had parted. Looking back, Su Xue felt ashamed for being so timid in the past.

She should have the courage to meet people in the eye, straight-backed and confident.

Why should she assume the role of a meek little girl?

If Su Wen could do it, so could she! Su Wen was the tree that sheltered them from the wind and rain; this was the least she could do to return the favor.

Fifth Sister had taken that crucial step forward because Su Wen gave her the confidence to believe in herself. Su Xue wanted to do the same; she did not want to live life afraid.

Su Xue felt her body fill with strength and vigor.

Courage did not stem from the knife but from the overflowing conviction in her heart.

Meanwhile, Fifth Sister was deep in thought, while Sixth Sister and Little Sister Su bounced with glee. That atmosphere was so tense, but it seemed to do little to curb their enthusiasm.

“Ah. I did the same when you slipped a knife into your pocket,” Su Wen answered Su Xue. She was happy to see this new side of Su Xue.

What could be more delightful than watching her younger sisters grow in the face of adversity?

The impasse stretched for several minutes, with neither side willing to back down.

Ma Xiulan’s expression flickered unpredictably as she glared at Su Wen and her sister with barely concealed hatred. Already, she regretted acting on impulse; she had been too hasty. She should have re-ascertained Su Wen’s capability before moving against her. Who knew she would change so much in only a few months? The Su sisters were nothing like they were in the past..
