Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Today, it was Su Qi and Su Yu who came to pick Su Ergou up.
The two of them looked at the table that was filled with snacks and their lips could not help but twitch. This kid was really doing business…
Su Ergou went to move the snacks.
The two of them hurriedly said, “I’ll do it, I’ll do it!”
If Big Brother knew that they let this kid work, he would definitely slap them.
After coming to the capital, the snacks were sold at a higher price, so the packaging was naturally better. Orders for quantities of less than five were wrapped in Ruo leaves, and orders for quantities of more than ten were placed in wooden boxes.
The small wooden box was custom-made by someone hired by Zhong Shan. It was engraved with the emblem of Su Ji. It looked high-end and generous, and it was not expensive to make.
Su Ergou seriously counted the snacks that Su Qi and Su Yu had moved into the carriage.
Su Qi and Su Yu were a little confused.
This situation… was different from what they had imagined.
Shouldn’t he be a timid, trembling, and country boy who needed the protection of his two heroic cousins at all times?
Why did he look like a little boss commanding the two of them to work?
A hundred boxes of snacks were moved. Su Xiaoxiao took out two more boxes.
“Eh? There’s more?” Su Qi said.
“For you.” Su Xiaoxiao handed the snacks to the two of them.
Su Qi took it and smiled. “Um… actually, there’s no need to go through so much trouble. We eat it often. Don’t make it next time.”
Their grandfather was a foodie. The chef in the residence had been specially invited from Jiangnan. The snacks he made were better than those sold outside.
It was not that they despised Su Xiaoxiao’s culinary skills, but there was really no need to trouble her so much.
There was no shortage of these two mouthfuls of food.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh, okay.”
She poked her hand into the compartment.
Su Ergou stuck his head over.
She tidied Su Ergou’s clothes.
The students of the Imperial College were wearing the same school uniform. It was white with a grayish-blue belt and sleeves. They looked refined and smelled like books.
Su Ergou was not bad-looking, but he usually did dabble in literary arts and was tanned. Now, that he had changed into a scholar’s clothes, he was quite eye-catching.
Su Xiaoxiao was very satisfied. She thought of something and reminded him, “There’s still half of the water I brought for you yesterday. You have to finish it today.”
Su Ergou agreed obediently. “Got it, Sister.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “What do you want to eat tonight?”
Su Ergou thought for a moment. “Braised pork.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Okay, I’ll make it for you.” Su Qi and Su Yu got into the carriage.
“Sister, we’re leaving!” Su Ergou waved goodbye.
The three little ones ran out and waved. “Goodbye, Uncle!”
Su Ergou waved seriously. “Goodbye, Dahu. Goodbye, Erhu. Goodbye, Xiaohu!”
Su Qi and Su Yu: “Is it so ritualistic?”
After Su Ergou left, it was the three little ones’ turn.
Su Xiaoxiao tidied up their book bags and filled them with snacks, water bags, and small towels.
The three little ones carried their small book bags and left valiantly!
Su Xiaoxiao had to enter the palace today and did not know how many hours it would take. She told Master Zhang that Zhong Shan would pick up the children and bring them back in the afternoon.
“You mean you have something on in the afternoon?” Master Zhang asked.
“Yes, I’m going out for a while.” Su Xiaoxiao didn’t say that she had to enter the palace.
Zhang Qinshi said, “Why don’t you let them stay here?”
Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “Huh?”
Master Zhang smiled. “You’ll pick them up when you come back tonight?”
Su Xiaoxiao pondered and said, “Is this… okay? Won’t it be too much of a disturbance?”
Zhang Qinshi hurriedly expressed, “No, no, no!”
He wanted her sons to disturb someone. Her sons had disturbed that person all morning and successfully made someone feel a little hungry.
If they disturbed him for an entire day…
The doctor had once diagnosed that if Ling Yun could not return to eating normally, he would die of exhaustion one day.
However, Ling Yun took the initiative to complain about hunger yesterday, allowing Master Zhang to see a trace of hope.
So be it. It was better than Ling Yun dying.
Ling Yun was exhausted by the three little ones yesterday and slept until dawn.
He was puzzled himself.
After all, he had not slept for a long time.
“Teacher!”
Xiaohu stuck his head in.
Ling Yun’s temples throbbed!
The fear of being dominated by Xiaohu’s little demonic voice surged into his heart.
Xiaohu said in a childish voice, “Teacher, let me tell you a piece of good news. We’ll accompany you for the entire day today!”
Duang!
Ling Yun fell!
Zhong Shan came to Pear Blossom Lane.
Su Xiaoxiao told him that the three little ones were staying at the teacher’s house today.
Zhong Shan was old. To be honest, she had no choice but to let him look after the three little fellows.
Since Master Zhang and Ling Yun were willing to contribute, it couldn’t be better.
Zhong Shan gestured. “Tell me if you have any instructions.”
Su Xiaoxiao returned to the house and brought him a box of ointment that she had just boiled yesterday. She said, “To recover from your waist injury, apply it every morning and night until it heats up.”
Zhong Shan was stunned.
Zhong Shan had never taken the initiative to tell Su Xiaoxiao anything. Be it his deafness or injury, Su Xiaoxiao had observed it herself. Zhong Shan took the medicine and his heart swelled. He said, “I’m just a servant.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “There are no servants here.”
Zhong Shan’s eyes were wet.
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Grandmaster Hui Jue also wants me to take care of you.”
Apart from asking Zhong Shan to serve them well, she also wanted them to help take care of Zhong Shan.
Mistress Hui Jue was a person who valued relationships and righteousness. Regardless of whether Zhong Shan was a servant or not, in her eyes, they were all people she had to take care of.
Zhong Shan turned around.
When he was sure Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t see him, hot tears fell.
Fifteen minutes later, Su Mots carriage arrived.
He was here to bring Su Xiaoxiao into the palace.
Su Xiaoxiao’s clothes were no different from usual. She was wearing a lake-blue high-waisted dress with a pipa shirt of the same color. Her hair was tied into a simple bun and she had tied a white pearl headband that Su Cheng had given her.
However, her cute round face and exquisite facial features were pleasing to the eye.
Her chubby figure made her look cute.
It was just… wasn’t this outfit a little too plain.
“Are you… sure you want to enter the palace dressed like this?” Su MO asked.
Su Xiaoxiao looked down at her outfit. “Isn’t this outfit good?”
“Pretty good,” Su MO said. “Get in.”
Other daughters wished they could put the most expensive jewelry and materials on themselves, but this girl was so simple.
From Su Mo’s standpoint, he hoped that Su Xiaoxiao would be chosen.
The Qin and Su families were royalists. Marrying the Third Prince, Xiao Zhonghua, was more in line with the Qin and Su families than marrying Wei Ting.
However, looking at this girl’s posture, she clearly hoped that she would fail.
“What’s so good about Wei Ting?” Su MO did not understand.
“Sigh.” Su Xiaoxiao sighed sadly. “We can’t say what’s good about some people, but no one can replace them… Okay, he’s good-looking.”
