Chapter 148 - 148 Domineering Young Marquis (1)

148 Domineering Young Marquis (1)

When Su Ergou and Manager Sun returned to the nunnery, Su Xiaoxiao was counting banknotes at the door languidly.

One, two, three, four, five.

The Prefecture Lord was really generous!

“Sister!”

!!

Su Ergou ran over with a bag full of fruits.

His head was covered in sweat.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a handkerchief. She was used to taking care of the three little ones, so she was very good at wiping sweat.

Su Ergou was stunned. His sister had never treated him like this before. Besides, he was no longer a child.

“Are you not going to wipe it?” Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him and asked.

“Yes, yes, yes!” Su Ergou moved his head over. He could be an adult tomorrow!

Su Xiaoxiao wiped his sweat and threw the handkerchief at him.

Su Ergou borrowed a basket from the nunnery’s young masters. “Sister, this fruit is especially sweet. Try it!”

“Where did you pick it? Did they allow it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

“Yes!” Su Ergou nodded vigorously. “I only went to pick them because the little masters agreed. I promised to give them some!”

A few ten-year-old nuns were standing behind the door and secretly looking over. Compared to their mature and steady senior sisters, they were still very young and timid.

These words sounded contradictory, but this was really their state.

They didn’t dare to talk too much to Su Ergou, but they were bold enough to secretly ask Su Ergou to help them pick fruits.

They wanted to hide it from their senior sisters. After Su Ergou gave them half of the fruit, they ran off with the loot.

“Eat it after washing it,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

“Oh.” Su Ergou entered the front yard of the nunnery and found a water vat to wash the handkerchief and fruits.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Wash them separately. Don’t wipe the fruits with your handkerchief!”

Su Ergou’s hand trembled and the fruit fell into the water tank.

He turned to look at his sister and thought to himself, “Does my sister have eyes on the back of her head? She even knows about my little movements!”

Su Xiaoxiao counted the money again in front of Manager Sun.

She did it very slowly, one by one, nonchalantly, exuding the aura of an arrogant master.

“Did you get a good look?” Her lips curved. “How many?”

“Five, five pieces.” Manager Sun swallowed his saliva. Because there was too much silver, he did not care about the little girl’s sudden arrogance.

“Where did you get them?” he asked.

Su Xiaoxiao said arrogantly, “Oh. When you weren’t around, I did a simple business.”

Manager Sun was dumbfounded.

On the other hand, after Prefecture Lord Li descended the mountain, the steward personally helped him onto the carriage. His expression was ugly; it was even worse than when he was in the Wang family.

The steward witnessed the entire process and was furious.

“That girl is too much! First, she injured Young Master, and now she’s here to extort money from you… Didn’t Lord Qi say that he would capture her and bring her back to the county office? Could it be a lie?”

Sitting in the carriage, Prefecture Lord Li’s face was ashen.

The steward made a chopping gesture. “Sir! In a while… I’ll find someone to deal with her!”

Prefecture Lord Li glared at him resentfully. “You only know how to clean up! Didn’t you see where she came from just now?”

From… from Grandmaster Hui Jue’s meditation room.

The steward’s eyebrows twitched!

The steward was stunned. “Sir! She’s just a girl from town. How does she know Grandmaster Hui Jue?”

Prefecture Lord Li said angrily, “If you ask me, who should I ask?”

He was really unlucky today. He had suffered so much embarrassment in the Wang family, and he had not been able to see Grandmaster Hui Jue when he came to the nunnery.

It was normal not to be able to see her. After all, he had been here many times, but he had never succeeded.

But this time was different.

Someone else had entered!

This meant that Grandmaster Hui Jue was willing to meet devotees!

“Investigate that girl for me!”

“Yes, my lord!”

… .

When Su Xiaoxiao and the others returned to the inn, it was already very late. Fortunately, the shops in the prefecture were closed later than in town. At this moment, the shops were still open, and there were many people on the streets.

“Sis.”

Su Ergou looked at Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Put your things away. I’ll wait for you downstairs.”

“Alright!”

Su Ergou was so excited that he could fly. Together with Xiaowu and Manager Sun, they carried the bags of things they had brought back from the nunnery upstairs.

...

Manager Sun was worried about the two children wandering the streets alone.

That girl could not be considered a child, but handling Su Ergou alone was akin to dealing with three brats. He had to watch them closely.

Su Xiaoxiao was never stingy when it came to food. She would buy whatever Su Ergou wanted to eat. Su Ergou was full after shopping and eating all the way.
