Chapter 183.1
Yaoniang was very happy.
She was in a good mood over the past few days.
From time to time, she would even smile for no reason.
It was one thing if it was just her. The main thing was that Xiaobao realized his father was also a little silly. He would smile meaningfully from time to time, and then his mother would look a little shy.
Even after living two lifetimes, there were still things that Xiaobao couldn’t understand. Today he couldn’t bear it any longer, and asked cutely, “Mother, what are you so happy about?”
She touched her face. Was her happiness so obvious?
Well, she was indeed very happy lately, and her mood would become extremely good for no reason. She couldn’t help it.
But she definitely couldn’t tell her son the truth, so she could only make a random excuse. “I heard from your father that your uncle has worked hard recently. A few days ago, he caught a robber who was famous for committing atrocities everywhere and even got injured. Fortunately, his injury isn’t serious.”
Was this something to be happy about? Are you actually his biological sister?
Since she didn’t want her son to know the bad things, Yaoniang never told Xiaobao about what happened in her maiden family in the past. She didn’t tell him anything that was too complicated. Everything he knew was inadvertently revealed by her words. For example, she was first enlightened by his grandfather. His grandmother was good at sewing. When his mother was young, his uncle would often steal other people’s candy to share with his mother and so on.
Even though Yaoniang never met with the Su Family again, she still paid attention to their side.
The two soft-legged shrimps who stayed behind had to face that one armed person. Fortunately, there were people from the Wucheng militia nearby. The guy who had been frightened away was yelling quite loudly. His voice had attracted the nearby people’s attention, so the armed robber did not escape in the end.
Afterwards, it was found out that this person was a notorious robber who had a bounty on his head for a long time. Every night, he used it as an opportunity to commit crimes and steal from everywhere. There had even been several lives taken by his hand. As for Su Yucheng and his companions, although they were injured, they had made a meritorious service.
Su Yucheng was injured and dispatched back to the Su Family, causing the old couple to be shocked. Fortunately, Su Yucheng’s injuries were not serious, but he had been cut several times by a dagger. When they heard that their son was injured in order to catch a wanted infamous robber, Su Xiucai and Wu-shi felt complicated inside and distressed for him.
As soon as Xiaobao heard his mother’s words, he knew that she was saying it to coax him as if he was a child. However, he couldn’t expose her even if he wanted to. After all, who asked for him to be a child?
“Then will mother go to see uncle?”
Yaoniang hesitated for a moment. “I don’t think I’ll go. Mother will just send some medicine over.”
Xiaobao didn’t speak. He knew that his mother was still worried about the Su Family finding out about her current identity, and becoming lazy and reliant on her.
More specifically, this was targeted at Su Yucheng. After all, Su Yucheng had finally made some self-improvement.
Speaking of the Su Family, Su Yucheng was recuperating at home at the moment.
He was stabbed in the arm and the chest, but the deepest wound was the one on his leg. Fortunately, none of his vital points were hurt, but he wouldn’t be able to walk easily for a short time.
Su Xiucai was teaching at the academy, and Wu-shi had to take care of the three children, so the job of serving Su Yucheng fell on Lancao.
It was summer. The weather was hot, and people were wearing thin clothes. For a large man lying on the bed, it was difficult for him to turn over. Physical contact between man and woman was unavoidable.
