When Uncle Quan went to Cheng Rui’s house, Cheng Rui was sitting in the crowded courtyard grinding herbs.
Without the livelihood given by the family, he would always be bullied by Cheng Lian’s lackeys when he went to work in other shops. In the end, he could only go to the mountains to pick some herbs to sell at the market.
Even so, there were often people who came to find trouble.
Uncle Quan looked at his shabby family and felt sad. He told her that Young Miss had asked him to be the shopkeeper.
Cheng Rui was in disbelief. “Me? Shopkeeper?”
Uncle Quan smiled and said, “That’s right. Your father used to work for our cloth shop. You must have learned a little.”
Cheng Rui said in a daze, “Yes, but… I…”
Uncle Quan said, “No buts. I’m not asking you to do it immediately. Little Miss has already arranged it. She will find someone to guide you.”
Cheng Rui wiped his rough hands with a clean cloth and said with a trembling voice, “Thank… thank you, Uncle Quan!”
Uncle Quan patted his shoulder. “Don’t thank me. It was Young Miss who said that she wanted to use you. I didn’t even have the opportunity to mention you.”
Cheng Rui smiled like a fool.
But as he smiled, he suddenly covered his face and cried.
Uncle Quan empathized with his current feelings.
He was the same when he was first found by the family head.
The hardship and sadness of being ostracized and suppressed all these years could only be understood by experiencing it personally.
Cry, child.
Cry out all your grievances.
After today, you will never suffer again.
Little Miss would not let anyone bully you again.
In the afternoon, Su Xiaoxiao went to Elder Lou’s residence.
In the courtyard, she saw Su Li lying on a rattan chair and eating rice cakes.
Su Xiaoxiao looked around. “Why are you alone? Where are Su Xuan and
Huahua?”
Su Li said casually, “They went out but knew you would come. They asked me to stay and wait for you. They said this was to prevent you from making a wasted trip. Hmph.”
Su Xiaoxiao placed the first aid kit on the table and took out the disinfectant and gauze. “If you’re unwilling to wait, I’m not willing to come over and change your dressing!”
Su Li’s face darkened. “How can you talk to your brother like that?”
“You’re only older by three days.”
“It’s three months!” Su Li corrected her. Su Xiaoxiao didn’t acknowledge his seniority.
Su Li curled his lips.
She had already addressed his Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Brother respectfully, but she kept calling him Su Li. Who was this girl looking down on?
Su Xiaoxiao looked at his childish expression in anger and amusement.
Elder brother?
Jing Yi was more mature than he was.
When Su Xiaoxiao finished changing Su Li’s dressing, Wei Ting came over.
Su Xiaoxiao was surprised.
Wei Ting was also surprised to see Su Xiaoxiao here.
Su Xiaoxiao saw through it. “Aren’t you here for me?”
Wei Ting said without changing his expression, “I guessed that you might come over. I didn’t expect you to really be here.”
“You’re lying.” Su Xiaoxiao hit the nail on the head. “Are you here to hide for a few days after your social death?”
Wei Ting did not understand. “What do you mean by social death?”
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and said without battinz an evelid, “It’s a kind of situation where you returned home last night and got humiliated after pretending to be dashing. That kind of situation where you wished you could die.”
Wei Ting, who was nailed to the pillar of shame in a second, was speechless.
It was a sunny day.
Su Xuan accompanied Princess Hui An out to buy rice cakes.
She had lived in the palace for more than ten years. It was not easy for her to be out. How could she stay in a small courtyard?
However, given the previous two accidents, she had disguised herself as an ugly person today and was also wearing a veil. It was a double guarantee.
Since the Great Zhou envoys had come to the capital, Su Xuan also put on a jade mask to avoid unnecessary encounters.
The two of them came to the rice cake shop they often patronized.
There were many people today, so the two of them lined up behind everyone.
“Su…” Princess Hui An was about to call him when she thought of something and lowered her voice.” You call me Huahua, so what should I call you? I can’t call you by your name. What if an acquaintance hears? ”
Su Xuan said quietly, “You can call me whatever you want.”
Princess Hui An thought for a moment. “Then I’ll call you Cousin like my sidekick.”
Su Xuan said, “Okay.”
The two of them continued to line up.
Princess Hui An stood in front of Su Xuan.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound in the air. Su Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched a silver needle at Princess Hui An’s temple.
Princess Hui An sensed his hand approaching her and turned to ask, “What’s wrong?”
Su Xuan secretly stuffed the silver needle into his sleeve. “There’s a little bug that I removed.”
Princess Hui An was most afraid of these insects and snakes. She was so frightened that she hurriedly let him take a look again..
