192 Blood Was Thicker Than Water

“Eh? Are you awake? Why are you looking at me like that?” Su Cheng glared at Su Yuan fiercely.

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered.

They were too similar.

However, it did not seem like it the moment he opened his mouth.

It was said that nephews looked like uncles because the siblings were from the same mother and had common physical characteristics.

When he saw Qin Che, Su Yuan felt that he was indeed a little similar to his father. Seeing the person in front of him, Su Yuan finally understood what a real resemblance was.

This pair of eyebrows was exactly the same as those of his aunt and father.

Su Yuan muttered, “You look like a person.”

Su Cheng raised the butcher knife. “Who are you scolding? I’m a human, to begin with! What do you mean by saying I look like a person!”

Su Yuan was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, he’s my customer in the prefecture city. The spring water Ergou brought back for you belongs to his family.”

F*ck, it wasn’t easy for him to rob someone, but he had done it to a customer…

Su Cheng’s eyes darted around. He calmly placed the butcher knife on the ground and kicked it under the long stool.

The coachman understood. “It’s you! You kidnapped my master! You… you’re a bandit!”

Su Yuan said in a low voice, “Zheng Guang, don’t be rude!”

The coachman pointed at Su Cheng and said, “But Master, didn’t you hear what he said? They clearly…”

Su Yuan’s expression was cold, and the coachman obediently fell silent.

Su Xiaoxiao changed the topic in time. “Master Su, your situation just now was very dangerous. It’s an allergy. Do you know that you have an allergy?”

Su Yuan nodded and smiled bitterly. “I’m allergic to catkins and some food. I’m usually very careful. I was negligent today and didn’t notice the catkins flying in from the carriage. Miss Su, it’s all thanks to you this time.”

“It’s a small matter,” Su Xiaoxiao said generously.

Su Cheng took the opportunity to slip into the backyard.

Su Yuan turned around and looked at him before asking Su Xiaoxiao with a smile, “Miss Su, are you from this village?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “My parents were originally from Willow Village, and they moved here later.”

Su Yuan smiled. “Ah, I see.” Su Yuan smiled and his gaze landed on Su Xiaoxiao’s round face. “Su…”

He wanted to call her Miss Su, but he suddenly realized that she was already a mother.

However, he really could not call her Madam Su.

Also, what was her husband’s surname?

Wasn’t it too abrupt for him to ask about this?

“What are you thinking about?” Su Xiaoxiao asked. “Are you still feeling unwell?”

Su Yuan came back to his senses. “No, I feel much better.”

These were not pleasantries. They were the truth.

He knew his own body very well. When he was young, he did not know that he was allergic and almost could not be saved a few times.

It was Imperial Physician Fu who accurately identified his illness and told him that there was no cure for this illness. It was better to guard against it than to treat it.

However, there were inevitable mistakes. In his impression, he had never recovered so quickly.

Su Yuan asked, “Miss Su, do you know medicine?”

Su Ergou walked out with the pony. “That’s right. My sister is Physician Fu’s disciple!”

Su Yuan said, “Which Physician Fu?”

Su Ergou said, “The one in Spring Willow Lane!”

Su Yuan fell into deep thought.

No wonder Mistress Hui Jue knew a little girl from town. It would make sense if the little girl was a disciple of the Fu family.

If Physician Fu’s disciple was already so powerful, wouldn’t Physician Fu’s medical skills be even more exquisite?

Old Madam Fu said that her son could not treat his father’s chronic illness. She was probably… unwilling to return to the capital, right?

No, he had to go to Spring Willow Lane again.

He said to Su Xiaoxiao, “It’s getting late. I won’t disturb Miss Su.”

“Wait!” Father Su stuck his head in from the backyard. “… consultation fee.”

With that, he retracted her head.

How strange. This man looked weak. He could crush him with one finger, but why did he seem a little afraid of him?

Not that he was afraid…

There was a strange feeling in his heart that Su Cheng could not describe.

This was probably one robbery in which he was least confident.

Su Yuan smiled and said, “It’s my duty. Look at me, I forgot such an important thing. Zheng Guang, go to the carriage to get the silver.”

Su Cheng’s ears pricked up. Was there silver? He had searched for a long time but could not find it!

He sat on the small stool and wanted to peek through the backrest, but he accidentally met Su Yuan’s gaze.

He coughed lightly and silently straightened his body.

Zheng Guang took out a money bag from the secret compartment of the carriage. “Master, here.”

Su Yuan said, “For Miss Su.”

Zheng Guang was stunned. Give it all?

Su Yuan said amiably, “Miss Su, please accept it.”

The lives of vassals were indeed quite valuable.

That medicine was indeed quite rare. She only had one bottle. Every pill consumed was one less pill.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao accepted the silver with a clear conscience.

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao returned to the house and counted nine small pills. She packed them in a small porcelain bottle, took them out, and handed them to him.

“If this level of allergy appears again in the future, eat three pills. There are three doses inside.”

Su Yuan said, “Thank you.”

Zheng Guang wanted to take it, but Su Yuan personally took it.

Zheng Guang was a little surprised.

Although his Heir-Son Lord had a good temper, he was from a noble family after all. With his status, it was rare for him to interact with others like this.

Perhaps it was because of Grandmaster Hui Jue and Old Madam Fu.

“Master, should I prepare the carriage?” Zheng Guang asked.

“Okay.” Su Yuan nodded.

Su Cheng was like a child, stealing glances from time to time. Seeing Zheng Guang take away the carriage he had painstakingly robbed, he was a little depressed.

Su Yuan walked over and bade him farewell. With an elegant demeanour, he thanked him kindly.

Su Cheng curled his lips and ignored him.

Su Yuan was really leaving.

Su Xiaoxiao sent him into the carriage.

Su Yuan sat in the carriage that Zheng Guang had cleaned up. “Miss Su, we’ll meet again if fate allows.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Take care, Old Master Su.”

Zheng Guang waved the horsewhip and the carriage slowly left.

Su Cheng looked out again.

Su Ergou was puzzled. “Dad, what are you looking at?”

Su Cheng glared at him. “Why do you care what I’m looking at!”

The man was gone.

Hmph, so be it.

He did not care!

Su Cheng raised the axe and chopped the firewood, one after another as if he was chopping with a knife. Su Ergou was dumbfounded.

What was wrong with his father?

When the carriage arrived at the village entrance, Zheng Guang saw a little fellow standing under a big tree and looking at them.

“Master, he’s Miss Su’s son.”

“Stop the carriage,” Su Yuan instructed.

Zheng Guang stopped the carriage by the tree.

Su Yuan lifted the curtain and looked at the little guy in front of him amiably. “Are you playing here alone? Where did your brothers go?”

Erhu said, “They went to walk the foal.”

Su Yuan smiled. “Why didn’t you go?”

Erhu said childishly, “I didn’t want to go.”

Su Yuan found a box of snacks in the carriage and walked down to give it to him.

Erhu shook his head. “Mother said that I can’t eat them.”

Su Yuan was stunned for a moment before smiling. “Your mother taught you very well. You really can’t eat what strangers give you.”

Erhu placed his small hands behind his back and tilted his head to look at him cutely. “Are you a lord from the city?”

Su Yuan smiled and said, “I guess.”

Erhu continued, “Are you very rich?”

What kind of question was this?

Erhu’s eyes darted around. “Your glabella is black. You have bad luck.”

Su Yuan was speechless.

Erhu bluffed seriously, “Do you want to change your luck?”

Su Yuan was stunned.

Erhu stretched out his small hand. “It’s an ancestral jade. Your luck can be changed by touching it. Ten copper coins at a time. Seeing that you look familiar, I’ll charge you five. No bargaining!”

Su Yuan was speechless.
