Chapter 279: Date (2)
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Mo. “So Old Master Su was brought to the capital by you.”
The Su family became street rats. The villagers scolded them three times a day, and the land that was originally given to them was all taken back by the village head.
“Liu Ping found a few craftsmen to realize the blueprint you left behind last time. He plowed the ground very quickly with it.”
“It’s been two months. One day, I heard her call me Mother.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. How could a two-month-old child call her mother? Su Yuniang could brag.
“I have good news for you. Jin Ji can’t continue. I took advantage of the situation and bought Jin Ji.”
“When I wrote to you, your big Blackie had been barking at the side. I suspected that it was scolding you. I decided to reward it with two carrots tonight.”
“Blackie is that donkey.”
She even gave the donkey a name.
There was no literary writing in Su Yuniang’s letter. It was all vernacular. It was not difficult for Su Xiaoxiao to imagine a certain rich woman’s smug expression.
“Sister Wu and Liu Ping asked me to greet you. Sister Zhao and Xiaoyong greet you. Manager Sun greets you… There are too many names. Think about it yourself. You don’t have to reply to them.”
It meant she had to reply to Yuniang.
Little Wu became a chef and did many things that many women would not dare to do in their lives. She even took in three disciples.
Her disciples were not as smart as her. She wanted to write to Su Xiaoxiao to tell her this.
Su Yuniang said generously, “There’s no need. I’ll help you write it. Whatever you want to say, I’ll write it all in the letter. Two letters will cost money.”
Little Wu thought that it made sense, so she said it for almost an hour.
She would never have thought that Su Yuniang would write two words: h.e.l.lo.
The Imperial College was indeed the largest academy in the capital. It occupied an extremely wide area and its buildings were antique. There were pavilions, carved beams, and painted buildings. Everywhere exuded the n.o.bility of the Imperial City.
In terms of the environment, Su Xiaoxiao was satisfied.
It was not far.
“First of next month?” Su Xiaoxiao confirmed with Su MO again.
“It’s the first day of the new year,” Su MO said. “I’ll prepare the carriage.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and didn’t refuse.
It was rare for the weather to clear today. Qin Canglan brought Su Cheng and the others to ride horses on the horse farm. As they rode, they forgot the time. On the other hand, Wei Ting arrived home first.
He went to the kitchen first.
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao would most likely be cooking.
However, today, there was no one in the kitchen.
His eyes moved. Just as he turned around, he saw Su Xiaoxiao push open the door and come out of the house.
She wore her hair in a simple bun and tied the pearl headband that Su Cheng had given her.
The headband was very cheap, but her temperament was not cheap. It was surprisingly exquisite and beautiful on her head.
Her facial features were exquisite, coupled with a pair of cold eyes, she always looked fierce in Wei Ting’s eyes even though she had a cute, round face..
Like… a proud little fat peac.o.c.k. “I’m not cooking tonight. I’m going out to eat.”
A certain little fat peac.o.c.k said.
“Okay.” Wei Ting had no objections. He looked around and asked, “Where are Dad and Ergou?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “They went out to play. They’re not back yet. They should have eaten outside.” If they went out with Qin Canglan, they would definitely not go hungry.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the tiredness between his eyebrows and asked, “Have you… not slept all night? Do you want to rest for a while? I just ate. I’m not too hungry.” Gulp…
Her disappointing stomach betrayed her little fat master in a second!
What a traitor!
Wei Ting’s lips curled up.
The two of them arrived at Scholar Street.
Knowing that this street was named after the man beside her, Su Xiaoxiao felt different again.
“What are you looking for?” Wei Ting asked.
“No, I’m just taking a look.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “What do you want to eat?”
She thought that Wei Ting would say anything. After all, ordinary men would answer like this.
Unexpectedly, Wei Ting said as if he knew everything, “Roasted pork with rock sugar, sweet and sour fish, spicy chicken, and a bowl of walnut, osmanthus, and lotus root powder.”
Su Xiaoxiao drooled.
No way, why were they all her favorite dishes?
Was he going to let her lose weight?
Su Xiaoxiao had just weighed herself the day before. She weighed 145 catties.
She lost the most weight in the first two months, at 20 catties a month. In the third month, she slowed down slightly. Otherwise, if she continued to lose weight so suddenly, her body would easily have problems.
She subscribed to scientific weight loss and a reasonable diet.
“I’m just teasing you,” Wei Ting said coldly. “I’ll take you somewhere.”
“Where?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“You’ll know when you get there.”
Wei Ting brought Su Xiaoxiao to a lake in the capital.
Green waves rippled as beautiful pleasure boats docked on the sh.o.r.e.
Wei Ting chose a small pleasure boat called Pearl Pavilion.
From the outside, the Pearl Pavilion was not too outstanding. It only had one floor. The Exquisite Pavilion and the Jade Pavilion on the left and right were both towering and taller than it.
In addition, the other pleasure boats more or less carried a little wind and music. The pipa, zither, flute… were endless.
Only Pearl Pavilion was cold, like a small workshop seeking survival in the cracks.
The boss was an uncle in his forties. His son helped him cook, and his wife served the guests and received orders. There were no hired waiters.
The boss seemed to know Wei Ting. The moment he saw him, he immediately beamed. “Young Master Wei, you’re here?”
Wei Ting nodded slightly and stepped onto the bow. Then, he turned around and extended his hand to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t expect him to be so gentlemanly and considerate. She had already stepped out domineeringly.
Wei Ting’s hand froze in midair, and so did her feet.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Her eyes darted around.
“Aiya…” She retracted her foot and leaned her chubby body on Wei Ting’s arm. “I’m a little seasick. ”
Wei Ting was speechless.
The boss was speechless..
