Su Xiaoxiao reached out and gestured for him to stop. “You don’t have to interfere. I’ll do this myself! A woman can’t rely on a man!”
Heh, was she sure she didn’t want to keep all the fun to herself?
Wei Ting casually took out a few banknotes. “Since women can’t rely on men, the family expenses this time…”
Su Xiaoxiao took the banknote and said solemnly, “Look at you. You spend all the money you have. I have to save it for you!”
The two of them returned to Pear Blossom Lane first and gave the candied hawthorn to the three little ones.
“One for Dahu, one for Erhu, one for Xiaohu, one for Sihu, one for grandfather, and one for Uncle. Mother won’t eat them.”
Su Xiaoxiao was on a diet and never touched candied hawthorn.
“Where’s mine?” Wei Ting asked.
“There’s no more,” Xiaohu said.
“Sihu won’t eat it. Give it to me.” Wei Ting already knew that Sihu was that foal.
“Sihu, do you want to give it to Daddy?” Xiaohu turned to look at Wei Ting.
“Sihu said no.”
Wei Ting said, “It didn’t say anything.”
Xiaohu said righteously, “Sihu said it, but you didn’t hear him!”
“Little brat, you just want to take the two sticks of candied hawthorn for yourself, right?”
Wei Ting teased him and insisted on eating Sihu’s stick of candied hawthorn. In the end, he successfully made Xiaohu cry.
Xiaohu lay on the ground with his butt raised high. He buried his face in his palms and cried.
“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Su Cheng hurriedly ran out.
Wei Ting said calmly, “Dad, don’t worry about him. Let him cry.”
“How can that do?” Su Cheng said. “You have to take medicine if you cry. Medicine is very expensive.”
Wei Ting was speechless.
Wei Ting said, “Dad, Daya doesn’t seem to be feeling well. Go take a look. I’ll coax Xiaohu.”
Su Cheng hesitated for a moment. “Alright, don’t let Xiao Hu cry on the ground! He’ll catch a cold! He’ll cough when he feels a chill!”
Wei Ting agreed. “Got it, Dad.”
Su Cheng went to Su Xiaoxiao’s room.
Wei Ting looked at a crying little fellow with a faint smile, picked up a small cushion, and threw it beside him.
The ground was hard, and the back of his hand hurt.
Xiaohu thought for a moment, got up, lay on the mat, and continued to cry.
He was halfway through crying when he turned around.
Eh, there was no one in the courtyard!
He quickly picked up the cushion and brought it into the house. He lay beside Su Cheng and Su Xiaoxiao and continued to cry!
Su Cheng and Su Xiaoxiao were speechless.
Benevolence Hall.
Manager Wu paced around the accounting room.
A waiter hurried over. “Shopkeeper! ”
Manager Wu looked around and pulled him in. He closed the door and whispered, “How is it? Is that girl injured?”
Shopkeeper Wu’s original intention was not to kill anyone. He was not so bold. His goal was to injure Su Xiaoxiao so that she could not continue to enter the palace to treat the empress dowager.
The shop assistant said, “I don’t know. That guy is gone!”
Manager Wu was shocked. “What?”
The shop assistant said awkwardly, “I guess… could he have taken our money and run away?”
Manager Wu was so angry that he slapped his forehead. “How did you do it? The person you found is so unreliable!”
The shop assistant touched his head which was in pain from the slap and stammered, “I was just guessing… It might not have really failed… Perhaps…” Manager Wu looked at the chubby figure downstairs. “Everyone is here!”
Su Xiaoxiao entered the Number One Hall and asked Du Juan, who was helping her guests get medicine, “Is Manager Sun here?”
Du Juan pointed upstairs. “In the accounts room.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “Get Little Weizi to come up too.”
Du Juan said, “Alright, Boss!”
She was a little busy today. Not only did Du Juan have to get the herbs, but she also had to run errands for Su Xiaoxiao. She accidentally knocked over a bag of herbs.
Physician Fu happened to pass by and frowned. “Du Juan, herbs are very precious. You’ve already scattered the medicine for the third time!” Du Juan explained, “My… boss asked me to call Little Weizi…”
Physician Fu said, “But you can’t be flustered.”
The patient’s family urged, “Are you going to prepare the medicine? Du Juan hurriedly said, “I’ll do it! I’m sorry! I’ll get you another set!”
“Du Juan! I asked you to call Little Weizi, but you didn’t?” Su Xiaoxiao’s dissatisfied voice came from upstairs. Du Juan said aggrievedly, “I, I forgot! I’ll go now!” “Hey! You haven’t gotten my medicine yet!” “Mine too! We’re all waiting!”
“We’ve waited so long. What’s going on?”
