Chapter 106: It’s Her

Old Zhao pretended to be deaf and mute in front. Refund the money? It was impossible for him to refund the money in this lifetime!
When that person saw that Old Zhao was silent, he cursed and let it go.
Along the way, He Qingyao and He Qingmu were curious about everything. This was the first time they had left the village.
Su Li said to them, “If you’re tired, lean on me and sleep!”
He Qingyao shook his head and said, “Mother, we’re not sleepy.”
New things made them extremely excited.
Riceball, on the other hand, was much calmer than them. It sat steadily in its seat.
With their company, Su Li felt that the journey to town was not that long.
They finally arrived in town. Everyone got out of their cars. Those who needed to sell things quickly went to find stalls, afraid that they would not be able to find a good spot if they were a step slower.
Su Li was not in a hurry. She took the things down first. Just as she was about to carry the child, they jumped off the ox cart.
“Riceball, let Second Brother carry you!” He Qingmu extended his hand towards Riceball.
Riceball glanced at him, then jumped off the ox cart and landed steadily on the ground.
He Qingmu was stunned. When he regained his senses, he clapped his hands hard. “Wow, Riceball, you’re so awesome!”
Su Li carried the things on her back and held a child in each hand. She instructed, “Don’t run around later. You have to follow me closely, understand?”
There were many human traffickers nowadays. If they saw these two children, who knew what sympathy they would have?
He Qingyao and He Qingmu nodded vigorously. “Yes, yes, I understand.” Riceball followed them cutely.
Old Zhao looked at the backs of the three of them and muttered softly, “I’m afraid there’s something wrong with him. He even asked the dog to call him brother. It’s already not letting him down by making sure he doesn’t become a dish on the dining table.”
Su Li first made a trip to the Exquisite Pavilion and handed the fragrant soap in her hand to the Exquisite Pavilion. This time, she did not meet Yue Ying. She received the money from the accountant and left.
“Candied hawthorns, delicious candied hawthorns-
As soon as they left the entrance of the Linglong Pavilion, the shouts of the small peddlers entered their ears.
He Qingyao and He Qingmu followed the voice of the peddler and looked over. They were immediately attracted by the candied hawthorn in his hand.
Su Li followed their gazes and led them towards the small vendor.
When the peddler saw Su Li walking over with the two children, he said with a smile, “Miss, do you want to buy candied hawthorn? My candied hawthorn is the best.”
“Give me three sticks,” Su Li said.
“Okay.” The peddler quickly took three sticks of candied hawthorn and handed them to Su Li.
Su Li gave He Qingyao and He Qingmu a skewer each while she kept one for herself.
He Qingyao and He Qingmu gulped and said, “Thank you, Mother!”
This was their first time eating candied hawthorn. They were a little excited.
“No need to thank me. Hurry up and eat!”
Su Li also took the candied hawthorn and ate it. There was a sour and sweet taste in her mouth. It had to be said that the candied hawthorn here was much more delicious than the ones she had eaten in the past.
“Here, eat it!” Su Li took one for Riceball and placed it in front of his mouth.
Riceball ate it in one bite, then frowned because of the sourness, but he couldn’t bear to spit it out.
Su Li was amused by its expression.
In a nearby restaurant, a young man dressed in bamboo green stood in front of the window and watched everything that was happening below.
“Is that her?” The man’s voice was casual.
Cheng Yu replied, “Yes boss, it’s her.”
This person was none other than the owner of Huiren Hall, Ling Yiran.
Ling Yiran chuckled. “Heh, tell me, a woman with two children is a doctor who’s even better than you? You might as well tell me that it’s more reliable to have pies fall from the sky.”
He had just returned from Beijing when Cheng Yu told him such a surprising news. At first, he was excited. After all, after mastering the production method of the anesthetic, he would have a higher chance of inheriting control of the family.
However, he did not ask Cheng Yu to bring her to him because he never believed that there were people who loved others and were selfless in the world.
She had grasped such an important thing, but she’s not keeping it for herself, but instead, for someone else? This made him feel that there was a trap, which was why he did this today.
The Old Master could no longer hold on. Whether it was him or his brothers, if they could obtain the badge in the Old Master’s hand, the next head of the family would be the person holding the badge.
Thinking of this, Ling Yiran could not help but rub his aching temples.
Cheng Yu understood Ling Yiran’s doubts and explained, “Boss, I’ve seen her perform the surgery with my own eyes. Her technique is comparable to a doctor in Beijing. My medical skills can’t compare to hers at all.”
This time, it was all his fault for being too anxious. If he had changed his method, his boss might have believed in Su Li’s medical skills.
Ling Yiran took a sip of tea and did not make it too clear. “Alright, continue to observe this person. There’s no hurry to introduce her to me.”
The last time she saw Su Ze’s clothes had been sewn with patches. Presumably, Mr. and Mrs. Su didn’t have many good clothes either. She wanted to buy ready-made clothes directly, but she was afraid that it wouldn’t be suitable, so she bought cloth back, intending to make it herself. This way, she wasn’t afraid that it wouldn’t fit.
Su Li had bought a lot of rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar tea.
When she passed by a small vendor, Su Li realized they were selling many small toys. She casually took one and asked, “Do you like it?”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu looked at each other and shook their heads. “Mother, we don’t like it. Don’t buy it.”
If his mother continued to buy like this, she would not have the fare to go home later!
“If you like it, buy it.” Su Li looked at them saying something against their will and took out her money to buy two little tigers.
No one could let their children suffer. It was not like they did not have the conditions now.
Soon, it was noon. It was not easy for her to bring the children out. Su Li brought them to the most famous restaurant in town, “Lucky Restaurant”, preparing to have a big meal.
When she walked in, she happened to see Cheng Yu and Ling Yiran walking down the stairs.
Cheng Yu did not expect such a coincidence. He cursed in his heart. Everything was really coming together.
Cheng Yu carefully glanced at Ling Yiran and said, “Boss, I’ll go greet them.”
Ling Yiran nodded slightly. “Go!”
Was he the kind of person who was harsh? Cheng Yu even had to be so careful when he wanted to greet someone.
With his permission, Cheng Yu walked towards Su Li. “Physician Su, are you bringing the children to the market today?”
Su Li said, “Yes, I’m bringing them out to see the world.” She said to He Qingyao and He Qingmu, “Quick, say hello.”
“Uncle Cheng.”
Cheng Yu’s heart almost melted when he heard the two cute voices.
“Woof woof-” Riceball barked too.
Cheng Yu was also frightened by the sudden barking. This dog was too doted on. It was served well at home, but they even brought the dog along when it went out?
Could it be that they were afraid that someone would steal the dog if they left him at home? This was a dog, not gold. Was there a need to treasure it so much?
The corners of Cheng Yu’s mouth twitched. “Haha, Riceball is here too!” The people in the restaurant heard the barking and turned to look.
The diner sitting in the hall shouted, “Who brought the dog in? Hurry up and chase it out!”
