Translate each two-element set by its smaller element to write $S_i=\{0,s_i\}$ with $s_i>0$. Translation does not affect any sumset cardinality. The pair-sum hypothesis forces the $s_i$ to be distinct, since equal values would give only three pair sums. Relabel so $s_1<\cdots <s_n$.

The distinct-positive-integer subset-sum lower bound has a short inductive proof. Suppose the first $n-1$ values have sum $P$, their largest subset sum. Adding $s_n$ creates the $n$ distinct sums $P+s_n$ and $P+s_n-s_i$ for $1\le i<n$. They are all above $P$, since $s_n>s_i$, and hence are all new. Starting with one sum for no elements and adding $1,2,\dots ,n$ new sums givesEquality is attained by $S_i=\{0,i\}$. Their subset sums fill every integer from zero to $n(n+1)/2$, by induction on $n$, and each pair of distinct positive values has four different pair sums. Thus the bound is best possible for every $n$.
