175 The Su Family in the Capital (2)

Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, “Does Grandmaster Hui Jue know that I’m coming over?”

She had yet to visit her!

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao turned to look at Manager Sun. “Where did you discuss your business?”

Manager Sun said, “Someone came looking for me. At the Wang family’s banquet… I told those guests where I lived and left a business card.”

Su Xiaoxiao finally understood. Manager Sun said he had brokered it himself but the business was most likely introduced by Grandmaster Hui Jue.

She knew it. She had already offended the Li family. Why would anyone dare to support her?

She originally thought that the client was from elsewhere and did not know. Now that she thought about it, someone who could build a relationship with Grandmaster Hui Jue was not afraid of someone like Prefecture Lord Li at all.

She had to find an opportunity to thank Grandmaster Hui Jue later.

There were four rooms. Su Xiaoxiao and the three little ones had one, Wei Ting had one, Su Ergou and Little Wu had one, and Manager Sun had one.

Manager Sun was very surprised that the two of them did not live in the same room.

However, on second thought, the beds in the inn were not big. There were three children in the middle, so it was indeed a little difficult to squeeze into the same bed.

Su Xiaoxiao had always been extremely serious about her work. Whether it was a big client or not, she would do her best to deal with it.

“Manager Sun, it’s me.”

She knocked on Manager Sun’s door.

“Boss, what’s wrong?” Manager Sun opened the door for her.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I have a question for you. Did that family say what taboos or restrictions we have to take note of for the offerings? For example, meat, lard, and so on?”

Manager Sun said, “I’ve asked. They said there aren’t any. Just do what you’re good at.”

The offerings were for the ancestors, but after the sacrifice, the offerings would be distributed. These offerings were usually thought to be stained with the blessings of the ancestors. After eating them, they could be protected by their ancestors.

Su Xiaoxiao roughly knew what to do.

Manager Sun suddenly said, “What a coincidence. The family who invited us to make snacks also has the surname Su.”

… .

Su Xiaoxiao returned to her room.

The three little ones widened their eyes and sat on the bed in high spirits.

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows twitched.

After sleeping all afternoon… Were they… well-rested from the long nap?

Dahu said, “Mother, I’m hungry.”

Erhu said, “Eat chicken drumsticks.”

Xiaohu said, “Eat pancakes!”

Su Xiaoxiao rejected mercilessly. “You can’t eat pancakes.”

Xiaohu felt wronged and refused to say anything.

The three of them slept all the way during the day. When they woke up at this hour, they would not sleep again until the latter half of the night.

There was a small market a mile away. When they passed by just now, it was very lively.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and went next door to get Su Ergou and Xiaowu, as well as Wei Ting, to walk around the market.

Manager Sun did not go. His old bones could not keep up with the stamina of young people.

Xiaowu drove the carriage.

The three little ones did not want to take the carriage. They wanted to walk!

Dahu and Erhu quickly occupied Su Xiaoxiao’s left and right hands. Xiaohu was so angry that he stomped his feet!

“I don’t want to walk,” Xiaohu said to Wei Ting.

Wei Ting decisively picked Xiao Hu up and threw him to Su Ergou.

The market here could not compare to the one in the prefecture city, but there were also many stalls.

The three little ones drooled at the stall selling fried chives dumplings.

Su Xiaoxiao asked for six chives dumplings and asked Su Ergou to buy eggnog glutinous rice balls from the stall next door.

She was on a diet so she wouldn’t eat this sugar-oil mixture.

When he sat down, Xiaohu successfully snatched the seat beside his mother and shook his head happily!

Wei Ting suddenly stood up and left silently.

Su Xiaoxiao thought that he had gone to the toilet, but when he returned, he had a roasted sweet potato in his hand.

“I bought it in passing,” he said calmly.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Then why are you giving it to me?”

Wei Ting brought the sweet potato back. “Forget it if you don’t want to eat it.”

“I’ll eat it!” Su Xiaoxiao snatched the sweet potato over and broke open the crispy outer skin. The outer skin was a little burnt, and there was a faint sweet and sour taste.

Compared to the pure sweet part in the middle, Su Xiaoxiao actually liked to eat this part more.

Her round face was chubby. When she took a bite, her cheeks were puffed up like a fat squirrel foraging.

“Brother-in-law, why aren’t you eating? Are you not hungry?” Su Ergou asked.

Wei Ting moved his gaze away from Su Xiaoxiao’s face and grabbed the chives dumpling on the plate. “I’m eating.”

...

Su Ergou smacked his lips. He thought that if Wei Ting didn’t eat it, he would eat it for him!

After they had eaten 70% of the chives dumplings and rice balls, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t allow them to eat anymore. “It’s too late. It’s difficult to digest if you eat too much. We’ll come back tomorrow.”
