At this time, Su Xiaoxiao still didn’t know that Wei Ting had been taken back to the Wei residence.

She once again entered the pharmacy.

She guessed that it was because she had treated a critically ill patient, and the pharmacy was rewarding her again.

She was quite excited to see what kind of medicine she would get this time.

However, to her confusion, there wasn’t any medicine or health supplement on the table in the resting room, only a pair of gloves that couldn’t look more ordinary.

They were slightly thicker than cotton gloves but thinner than heat-resistant gloves, with clearly defined fingers. 

Su Xiaoxiao: “……” 

She had slept too much during the day, so she wasn’t very tired at night. She woke up shortly after the hour of the tiger (3 – 5 AM)

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the gloves beside her pillow and chuckled, “Are these for me to cook with? To protect my hands?” 

Since she didn’t need to make pastries today, her morning was quite relaxed. 

She kneaded dough, steamed a batch of white flour buns and cornbread, roasted two sweet potatoes, and boiled a few eggs. 

The peanut butter and sesame paste she had brought from the countryside were almost finished during the journey, so she would need to buy some peanuts and sesame seeds at the market later. 

…and wait for Wei Ting to come back to grind them into paste. 

The sweet potatoes were almost done. Su Xiaoxiao pulled them out from the stove with iron tongs.

While waiting for them to cool, she went to tidy up the yard.

Zhong Shan delivered more firewood.

When Zhong Shan wanted to help clean the yard, Su Xiaoxiao looked at his hunched back and gestured in sign language, “No need, I’ll do it myself.”

Zhong Shan was briefly stunned, clearly surprised that Su Xiaoxiao knew sign language. 

He was not only mute but also deaf. 

However, he could read lips, so unless someone called out to him from behind, most people wouldn’t realize he was deaf. 

As for sign language, even fewer people used it with him. 

He didn’t use it with others either, he would usually write it when he needed to communicate. 

Even though both could convey the meaning, sign language and writing held different meanings, especially for someone who was deaf and mute like him. 

Su Xiaoxiao continued signing: “I made a batch of pastries yesterday and saved two boxes for you.”

Before Zhong Shan could recover from his shock at her using sign language, Su Xiaoxiao had already gone inside to fetch the pastries. 

Su Xiaoxiao handed the boxes to him and signed, “One is sweet, and the other one is sweet and salty.” 

When Zhong Shan left the courtyard with the pastries, his eyes were slightly moist. 

Su Xiaoxiao sat in the kitchen, nibbling on a sweet potato. 

As she ate, a small, round head peeked in. 

”Dahu?” Su Xiaoxiao was surprised. 

“Mom.” Dahu entered the kitchen. 

“You’re up this early? Do you want to pee?” Su Xiaoxiao put down the sweet potato, was about to take him to the latrine. 

He shook his head and handed her a hair tie. 

”Not sleeping anymore?” Su Xiaoxiao asked. 

“Not sleeping.” Dahu said in his soft, childish voice. 

Su Xiaoxiao smiled, took the hair tie, and sat him on her lap, gently tying up his soft hair. 

“Why did you wake up so early?” She asked. 

“To walk the pony.” Dahu said. 

Da Hu was a responsible child. Every time they walked the pony, his two younger brothers would slack off, but he always took it seriously.

The two-month-old foal had grown strong and healthy, showing no signs of being premature. 

When it saw Dahu, it happily jumped around. 

Su Xiaoxiao accompanied Dahu to walk the pony. 

Dahu held the reins in one hand and half eaten sweet potato in the other hand, nibbling it with his milky-white small baby teeth. 

Having only moved in a few days ago, Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t familiar with the neighbors in the alley. 

She didn’t recognize anyone, whether it was people who were sweeping their yards or walking by. 

But strangely, they all knew Dahu.

“It’s Dahu right? Walking the pony again?” 

An auntie sweeping leaves at the gate greeted him.

Dahu politely replied, “Grandma Zhao.” 

“Aiya! Such a good boy.” Grandma Zhao laughed. Then, noticing Su Xiaoxiao, she asked, “Oh? And who’s this?” 

She looked at Su Xiaoxiao. 

Dahu puffed out his chest and said, “My mom.” 

Auntie Zhao was stunned and said, “Ah…… such… such a young mother ah… how… how blessed.”

Just say she was fat and be done with it. 

Su Xiaoxiao greeted politely, “Auntie Zhao.” 

“Ei, ei!” Auntie Zhao nodded repeatedly. 

They ran into several more neighbors, and as expected, Dahu knew them all and even introduced Su Xiaoxiao to them.

Su Xiaoxiao was baffled. 

How did he manage to learn all of the neighbors’ names in just three days? 

Was this what they called a social genius? 

Among the three kids, Erhu was the most eloquent. 

She always thought that if anyone was going to be the neighborhood star, then it would be Erhu. 

And it turned out, Dahu was secretly amazing. 

“This house… is empty.” 

“This one too.” 

Dahu pointed out the unoccupied houses as they walked. 

“How do you know?” Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Maybe they’re just visiting relatives and will be back in a few days?”
