Chapter 698: Second Brother’s Whereabouts

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Xiaoxiao, Su Ergou, and the three little ones had dinner at the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate. Su Ergou was asked to stay overnight by Matriarch Su and Madam Tao.

“Sister.” Su Ergou looked at Su Xiaoxiao, unable to make up his mind.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “Stay for the night. I’ll go to the directorate with my cousins tomorrow morning. I’ll talk to Grandpa and Father.”

Madam Tao hurriedly said, “You don’t have to do it; it’s not on the way. Fifth

Brother!”

My mother finally remembered me… Su Li ran to her mother excitedly. “Mom!”

Madam Tao instructed, “Go to your granduncle’s house and say that Ergou will stay in the Duke Mansion tonight.”

Su Li glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and muttered, “Why don’t you let her go? Isn’t she leaving?”

Mdm Tao glared at her son. “Xiaoxiao isn’t on the way!”

Su Li felt extremely aggrieved. So was on the way for him?

It was a shrimp banquet today. The three little ones were worried about their master and even chose a few to bring over for their master.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the Ling Yun family, they found out that the two of them had been taken away.

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “Who’s so bold?” “They dared to capture Ling Yun and Ghostfear?” “Wouldn’t this person get beaten up by the two of them?”

Deng An said, “Your father.”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao went to the Imperial City’s office to look for Su Cheng.

Su Cheng said, “In their situation, firstly, they have to compensate the neighbors for their losses. Secondly, they have to apologize to the neighbors.

Thirdly, they have to make peace with each other.”

Forget about the first two. The last one was impossible.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Is there any other way to bail them out?”

Su Cheng nodded and said, “Pay 100 taels each. Otherwise, they’ll be locked up for three days. During this period, they can’t attack each other or anyone else in the cell. Otherwise, the ransom and detention period will be doubled.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Ghostfear and Ling Yun in the cell. Every second she hesitated was disrespectful to the pouch. “Goodbye, Big Brother! Goodbye, Ling

Yun!”

Ghostfear was speechless.

And so was Ling Yun.

The date to go to Western Jin was set. On the third day of August, Wei Ting took the water route in the first half and the official road in the second half. Wei Ting applied for marriage leave and went with her.

“It’s rounding up. This is a honeymoon.”

“What?” Wei Ting asked in the carriage back from the palace.

“Nothing.” Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “You guys…”

She was about to say “you ancients” when she remembered that this guy was too smart. She changed her words.

“You men don’t understand.”

Wei Ting scoffed, “Heh.”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “Heh, why are you so cold? If you have the ability, don’t follow me!”

Wei Ting said coldly, “I didn’t go with you to begin with. I’m going to look for

Second Brother.”

Su Xiaoxiao scoffed, “Heh.”

Wei Ting looked at her meaningfully. “I wanted to ask, could it be that you deceived me with fake news and deliberately scammed me to go to Western Jin with you?”

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and snorted. “I’m not that bored! If you don’t want to go, I’ll go look for Su MO! If Su MO is busy, Jing Yi can do it too.” Wei Ting’s face darkened.

Su Xuan did not give a 100% certainty about Wei Erlang’s news. He only said that if Wei Erlang was still alive, he should be in the Western Jin Capital.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t say that the news was provided by Su Xuan.

On the last day of the month, Su Xiaoxiao entered the pharmacy as usual.

On the table in the office was the reward for this month.

Her weight stabilized, and she was very satisfied with her current weight and chubby figure. She did not intend to continue losing weight.

She no longer needed a large amount of nutrients, and no such potion appeared on the table in the lounge.

There were two boxes of bone strengthening pellets, Qin Canglan’s; a bottle of yellow pills, her own; and a bottle of black ointment, Wei Liulang’s.

In addition, there was an unfamiliar box.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the box. It contained neural magnets for prosthetics.

It was also for Wei Liulang.

Implanting it into the joint of the broken limb could allow the prosthetic limb to better connect to Liulang’s neurons.

Su Xiaoxiao found Wei Liulang that night and mentioned the surgery to him.

“This arm is quite useful. Are you going to change it? Can you not change it?” Wei Liulang hugged his little golden arm like a child who could not bear to part with his big treasure.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “No, it’s just a small operation on your broken arm. It won’t hurt much with anesthetic.” Wei Liulang said, “I’m not afraid of pain.” He was just afraid of losing his arm. “There’s no time to lose. Do it now.”

“Okay.”

Wei Liulang was definitely very cooperative when it came to going under the knife. Without any hesitation, he lay on the bed and removed the prosthetic limb.

He was about to hand it to Su XiaoxHe, but after thinking about it, he hugged it again.

Su Xiaoxiao was both angry and amused. “I won’t snatch your arm.” Su Xiaoxiao put on her gloves and took out the scalpel. “You can close your

“I’m not afraid,” said Wei Liulang.

“That’s up to you.”

Su Xiaoxiao injected him with anesthetic.

Wei Liulang was very cooperative and the surgery went very smoothly.

Wei Liulang watched her bandage his wound and couldn’t help but ask, “Is this enough?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and wrapped the gauze around her. “Remember to recuperate. Don’t use force and don’t pull on your wound. My master will come and remove your stitches in five days.”

She was going to Western Jin.

Wei Liulang sat up and looked at her solemnly. “I want to go to Western Jin with you too.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her wound. “Sixth Brother, your situation isn’t suitable for a long journey. Moreover, the weather is hot. It’s too hot to ride a horse and it’s too stuffy in the carriage. It’s not conducive to your recovery.”

Wei Liulang opened his mouth. “But I…”

Su Xiaoxiao decisively used her ace in the hole, trump card. “If we all leave, who will take care of Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu?”

Thinking of the three little fellows, Wei Liulang finally compromised.

Su Xiaoxiao began to pack the medicine box. She thought of something and asked, “By the way, Brother, did you use the bottle of medicine I gave you last time?”

Wei Liulang asked, “What medicine?”

“It’s that little round black bottle.”

“Ah… You mean that…” Wei Liulang’s eyes flashed as he said guiltily, “I applied it a few times.”

“What do you mean by applying it a few times? I told you to apply it once in the

morning and once in the morning!”

Wei Liulang coughed lightly. “I… sometimes forget to apply it.”

“Where’s the medicine?”

Su Xiaoxiao asked solemnly.

Seventh Sister-in-law was so scary… Wei Liulang pointed at the bedside table.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the cabinet and took out the medicine to take a look. This guy didn’t apply it at all!

She clenched her fists in anticipation from someone and took a deep breath. “Take off your mask. Let me see your face.”

“No.” Wei Liulang refused.

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I’m a doctor. Let me take a look.”

“What’s there to see?”

“Take it off!” Doctor Su said fiercely. “Otherwise, I’ll get Dahu to pluck it!”

Wei Liulang timidly took off the mask on his face.

Indeed.

The scar on his face was still there.

Su Xiaoxiao sighed. “Sixth Brother, even if I’m a miracle doctor, if you don’t cooperate, I won’t be able to treat you.”

Wei Liulang said in a low voice, “My face… can’t be treated.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How will you know if you don’t try? Or do you not want to treat your face? How about this? Give me and yourself a chance. It’s a bottle of medicine. This is the only bottle. If it’s useless after you finish applying it, I won’t force you again.”

Wei Liulang nodded slightly.

In the next two days, Su Xiaoxiao packed a lot of herbs that might be used for house calls and also brought some emergency medicine on the way.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the new year.

The two of them bade farewell to their family and got into the carriage to

Western Jin..
