Ever since Liu Zijin’s wedding last time, they had no chance to meet again, but their letters had never stopped.
Liu Zijin naturally had to participate in the Fall Quarter Examinations this time, so they had agreed that when they passed by Anping County, they would meet Liu Zijin and go to Furongzhou together.
Su Hua said, “If he didn’t lie in the letters, I believe he’s really happy.”
“That’s why we’ll know when we go take a look. Not long ago, I replied to him. I said that we only set off on the tenth, so what we see today would be real.”
Su Chong said with a smile. He was very worried about Liu Zijin and was afraid that he would not lead a good life.
In the past few years, Liu Zijin had brought him many good books. He knew that Liu Zijin’s life must be good, but was he and his wife really happy?
Su Chong hoped that it was true, but he would only know if it was true after he went to take a look.
Su Xiaolu interrupted, “Speaking of Liu Zijin, I forgot to tell you something. Two years ago, when Master and I were training, we met Liu Zijin and Wang Huilan.”
Su Hua and Zhou Heng looked at Su Xiaolu, waiting for her to continue.
Su Xiaolu told them about how she had treated Madam Yin’s illness, how she met Wang Huilan later, and how she sealed Liu Zijin’s acupuncture points.
With that, Su Xiaolu picked up the water bag and drank some water. Her mouth was dry from talking.
Su Hua smiled and said, “From the looks of it, Zijin didn’t lie to us. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done this for Wang Huilan.”
Initially, everyone thought that Liu Zijin and Wang Huilan were together because they both had ulterior motives. Liu Zijin would definitely be successful in the future.
However, after interacting with Wang Huilan, he fell in love with her and was willing to build a future with her.
“Xiaolu, will you help him unlock the sealed acupuncture points this time?”
Su Chong asked.
Su Xiaolu replied, “Let’s see how Wang Huilan’s body has recovered first. If it’s good, we can release his acupoints. Then, Wang Huilan can have children.”
It had been more than two years. If Wang Huilan recovered, she could also remove Liu Zijin’s acupoints.
Su Chong was deep in thought. He decided that when he had enough children in the future, he would find Su Xiaolu to seal his acupoints. It was so convenient to have a divine doctor at home.
Su Hua and Zhou Heng had the same thought.
Su Xiaolu felt bored and began to eat the snacks Su Xiaoling made.
There were also some dried fruits.
In the carriage, there was the sound of Su Xiaolu eating.
Su Hua looked at Su Xiaolu and her eyes softened.
Zhou Heng could not help but smile.
Su Xiaolu also smiled sweetly at them. “Second Brother, do you want to eat? Third Sister made a lot. There’s sweet, salty, spicy, and sour.”
“No, just eat.”
Su Hua shook his head gently. When he saw Su Xiaolu eating happily, he felt very happy. The memory of starving was too far away. He could barely remember it. Looking at the innocent and sweet Su Xiaolu, Su Hua was very happy.
Zhou Heng also shook his head gently. “Thank you, Xiaolu. Eat it. I’ll buy you some more when we pass by the town.”
Su Xiaolu nodded. She liked to eat.
When she was tired of eating sweet food, she would eat salty and fragrant food. When she was tired of that, she would eat spicy food. When she was tired of eating spicy food, she would eat sour food. This went on and on.
They were about to reach Anping County. Su Hua took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Su Xiaolu’s mouth. “Xiaolu, go down and walk to digest your food. Otherwise, you won’t be able to eat when we enter the county later.”
Su Xiaolu nodded and put away the snacks. Then, she alighted from the carriage nimbly and ran slowly with her breath or used Qinggong to fly.
After all this, when she entered the county, her stomach was no longer full.
After entering the county, Su Chong drove the carriage straight to the mansion.
They knew where the mansion was. They had been here the last time Liu Zijin got married.
When they got out of the carriage, Su Chong went forward and said to the servant guarding the door, “We’re looking for Liu Zijin. Please inform them that old friends of Goathorn Town are here to visit.”
The servant saw that Su Chong and the others were dignified. Although their clothes were ordinary, their bearing was excellent. He smiled and said, “Young Masters and lady, please wait a moment.”
The servant quickly went to report.
Liu Zijin was playing the zither for Wang Huilan when the servant came to report. Wang Huilan stopped writing.
Liu Zijin smiled and said, “Huilan, Chong, Hua, and the others are here. Let’s go out and welcome them together. In the letter, we agreed to set off tomorrow. I think they want to see if I’m doing well. Today, we’ll let them see how loving we are and make them envious.”
Liu Zijin stood up and pulled Wang Huilan out.
A blush rose on Wang Huilan’s cheeks. In the past two years, she had slowly lost weight. She was still a little fat now because Liu Zijin didn’t want her to be too thin. He said that she was full of beauty.
She had stopped taking the medicine Su Xiaolu had prescribed for a few months.
Liu Zijin held her hand and was in high spirits. Wang Huilan could tell that he cared a lot about these few good friends.
“Hubby, see if there’s anything wrong with me. Should I change my clothes?”
Liu Zijin cared, and so did Wang Huilan. She stopped in her tracks, not wanting anything to go wrong.
Liu Zijin looked at Wang Huilan with a smile in his gentle eyes. He said seriously, “You’ve dressed appropriately. There’s nothing wrong with you.”
After spending nearly three years together, Liu Zijin also loved Wang Huilan deeply. Every moment he was with Wang Huilan, he felt at ease.
Wang Huilan was gentle and kind. She had a delicate heart. It was Liu Zijin’s fortune to have such a wife.
Liu Zijin held Wang Huilan’s hand and went out to welcome them. Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng were his only recognized friends. They were worried about him, and he wanted them to know that he was doing well.
Looking at their backs from afar, Liu Zijin smiled and shouted, “Chong, Hua, Heng… Xiaolu.”
Liu Zijin did not expect Su Xiaolu to come too. This saved a lot of trouble. He had originally planned to find Su Xiaolu to release his acupuncture points after the Fall Quarter Examinations. Now that Su Xiaolu was here, she could do it earlier.
Su Chong and the others looked at Wang Huilan in shock.
Wang Huilan had lost so much weight, and she also looked delicate and pretty. She was surprisingly compatible with Liu Zijin.
“Let me introduce you. This is my wife, Madam Wang.”
Liu Zijin held Wang Huilan’s hand.
Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng cupped their hands. Su Chong said, “Mrs. Liu, sorry to disturb you.”
Wang Huilan said with a gentle expression, “You’re welcome. Hubby often tells me about you. It’s difficult to find friends in this world. Please come in.”
Wang Huilan smiled at Su Xiaolu and said, “Xiaolu, we meet again.”
Su Xiaolu also smiled. “Yes, it looks like you’re recovering well. I’ll take your pulse later and see how you’re recovering.”
