Grandma Si and the Si Family Master accompanied Elder Si to a guest room for his acupuncture treatment, while the rest of the Si Family was shut outside the door.
Lady Si went to the kitchen and instructed the chef to prepare a variety of refreshments for the Divine Doctor to sample later.
Third Aunt Si was stewing. 'No matter what, I have to make that wretched girl pretending to be the Divine Doctor answer for what she did to my daughter.'
Her thoughts were interrupted by her eldest nephew's furious voice. "Si Yan, you wretched girl! You're used to running wild at home, aren't you!
How dare you offend the Divine Doctor? I'm telling you, I don't care what it takes—you *will* apologize to her.
Otherwise, the Si Family will disown you. Do you really want to test our family's rules?"
Everyone in the Si Family tacitly acknowledged the eldest grandson as the next Family Head. Among the grandchildren who weren't still students, he was the only one who remained in the Imperial City.
