246 His Son (2)
Father Su smacked his lips in pain. After buying the vegetables, he bought meat.
Thinking of the three little fellows at home, he gritted his teeth and bought a stick of candied hawthorn.
Originally, it took less than an hour to buy. The reason why he did not return was that he was blocked.
The person blocking him was none other than the young servant who had kicked Xiao Hu on the street last time. His name was Wang Fugui.
!!
Wang Fugui’s aunt was an old woman in the Protectorate. She had worked for 20 years and was now a nanny in the kitchen. She had some influence in the estate. Even Steward Zhang had to give her some face.
Otherwise, Steward Zhang would not have given Wang Fugui a job.
Of course, Wang Fugui was not here to stop Su Cheng. He was also here to buy. The Protectorate had a special supply channel, but those shops were expensive.
In order to earn some money, he came here to buy cheap goods.
He was not as picky as Su Cheng. After all, Su Cheng had learned farming from Madam Qian.
He only wanted it to be cheap and did not know the quality. What he bought back were all rotten vegetables. He ended up being scolded by his aunt who asked him to return the money.
He was holding back his anger when he happened to meet Su Cheng again.
Then the two of them started fighting.
Relying on the fact that there were many people, he blocked Su Cheng in the alley.

Su Ergou brought the foal to the front yard and Qin Canglan taught him how to feed it with new feed.
After feeding him, Su Cheng still did not return.
Qin Canglan looked around.
Erhu walked over and tilted his head to look at him. “You don’t look happy.”
“No.” Qin Canglan smiled and said, “Are you… Erhu or Xiaohu?”
Dahu was not at home.
Erhu said, “I’m Erhu.”
“It’s fine if you’re unhappy.” Erhu changed the topic in time. “I have an ancestral stone. Do you want to touch it? You’ll be happy if you touch it.”
Last time, he said that bad luck was shrouding his listener and did not sell it. This time, Erhu changed his marketing strategy.
“Sure,” Qin Canglan said.
How decisive. Erhu liked it.
Erhu took out his small stone. “I’ll let you touch it. I won’t give it to ordinary people.”
Qin Canglan touched it seriously.
Erhu nodded in satisfaction.
After testing it, it was time to…
Unexpectedly, before Erhu could speak, Qin Canglan said, “I can’t touch your stone for nothing. This is for you.”
With that, he plucked a golden bean from the ear of his jade pendant and placed it in Erhu’s palm.
Erhu, who had thought of a hundred ways to name his price was speechless.
–
When it was almost noon, Father Su still did not return.
Su Xiaoxiao knew that he had gone to the market in the east, so she decided to look for him.
As she passed by a small alley, she heard an intense beating and the sound of fists hitting flesh.
She frowned and walked over.
Father Su was covered in blood.
He sat on a man and threw hooks to his left and right, hitting the man until he was looking for his teeth on the ground.
On the ground beside the two of them were a few bruised and swollen servants. They could not even get up.
“Dad?” Su Xiaoxiao called out.
Seeing his daughter arrive, Su Cheng finally stopped. After getting up, he kicked Wang Fugui again. “I’ll let you off today! If you dare to court death again, I’ll send you to see the King of Hell!”
“Dad, are you alright?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“I’m fine!” Su Cheng looked down at the blood on his body and said, “It’s not my blood. Sigh, look at these dirty clothes! They really can’t take a beating!”
Thinking of this, he turned back and kicked each of them!
Seeing that Su Cheng was really fine, Su Xiaoxiao was relieved.
“Dad, let’s go back.”
“Aye!”
Su Cheng picked up the burden at the side.
Fortunately, the vegetables were not spoiled. Otherwise, he would definitely take their lives!
“Dad, wait.”
Su Xiaoxiao walked over.
When Wang Fugui heard footsteps, he hugged his head and trembled.
Su Xiaoxiao squatted down expressionlessly and plundered their money bags!
...
The father and daughter walked back.
This scene fell into a carriage across the street.
Qin Che lifted the curtain and stared fixedly at the father and daughter who came out of the alley.
For a moment, he suspected that he had seen wrongly.
“Father, what are you looking at?”
Qin Yanran asked.
Qin Che’s mind was buzzing, so he didn’t hear what Qin Yanran said.
Qin Yanran followed her father’s gaze and exclaimed, “It’s her?”
This time, Qin Che reacted.
He turned to his daughter beside him. “Do you know those two?”
Qin Yanran recalled, “That girl is the physician from Qingzhou that I mentioned to Dad.”
