Lihua Lane. 

A theater troupe had come during the day, singing and performing for half the day.

The three little ones hadn’t even taken their afternoon nap. 

They listened till the evening, most likely excited by the opera. 

Now, they were running around cheerfully in the courtyard.

Su Xiaoxiao had returned from the marquis’ estate and was drying medicinal herbs in her front yard.  

The three little ones were mischievous, but they never damaged Su Xiaoxiao’s stuffs. Her herbs were safe.  

However, the corn cobs shelled by Father Su and Su Ergou were not treated in the same way.

Swish!

Dahu ran past.  

A basket of corn cobs tipped over.  

Whoosh! 

Erhu ran past!  

A whole string of chili peppers fell.  

Hey!

Xiaohu jumped up.  

Su Cheng’s hair practically stood on end, “My pickled cabbage!!!”  

Fortunately, he moved quickly.  

Xiaohu, who was about to jump into the pickled cabbage jar, was caught by Su Cheng.  

After finishing with the herbs, Su Xiaoxiao prepared milk and brought it over.  

The three little ones immediately stopped their mischief. 

They took their bottles with both hands, sat on small stools, and drank their milk quietly, behaving very well.  

By the time Wei Ting returned home, the three little ones had already finished their milk and were taken by Su Cheng for a bath.  

Su Ergou was feeding the horse in the backyard.  

Wei Ting walked over and glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who was still drying herbs. 

He asked, “Was this your idea? Or Su Mo’s?”  

He was referring to Old Mr. Su giving false testimony in the imperial study.  

Su Xiaoxiao said innocently, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”  

Wei Ting would be foolish to believe her. 

With that look, it was clearly her idea.  

Wei Ting said, “First, you intentionally let the old Su family members leave, allowing them to fall into Qin Che’s—no, it’s Qin Jiang’s hands, leading Qin Jiang to believe he had grasped an opportunity to turn things around. 

Su Dalang was probably unaware of it. Old Mr. Su was the one who made the deal with Su Mo.”

Wei Ting wasn’t stupid. After ruling out Xiao Chonghua, the remaining option was Qin Jiang.    

Qin Jiang’s purpose was not to kill him, but to reveal his ties to the Qin and Su families, making Emperor Jingxuan wary.  

What was Emperor Jingxuan most worried about?  

The Wei family rebelled.  

Emperor Jingxuan would never allow the military power of the Qin and Su families to fall into Wei Ting’s hands.  

Thus, only two options remained.  

First, Emperor Jingxuan could separate the young couple and have Xiao Chonghua marry the legitimate daughter of the Qin family.  

Second, the marriage between Xiao Chonghua and Qin Yanran would remain unchanged, and military power would be handed over to Qin Jiang.  

Considering all factors, Emperor Jingxuan would choose the latter.  

But Qin Jiang had not expected that she and the Marquis of Zhenbei’s estate would turn the tables and eliminate all suspicions in one fell swoop.

Wei Ting gazed at her thoughtfully: “My wife.. with your intelligence, it’s a shame you’re not a strategist. Were you concerned His Majesty would send someone to the village to investigate?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “Let him investigate. With Yuniang and Village Chief Guo present, if he finds anything, I will concede defeat…. Hubby.”

He called her ‘wife’, so it was only natural for her to return the favor by calling him ‘hubby’.

After all, courtesy requires reciprocation. 

Wei Ting: “You’re really bold.”

Su Xiaoxiao: “Likewise, likewise.”

With great courage comes great reward, just go for it!

This guy was no pushover either.

Su Xiaoxiao tilted her head and looked at him, “So, are you really a monk?” 

She had already heard from Su Mo about his bold move of entering monastic practice.

Wei Ting remained unflinching: “No.”

He changed the subject: “How did you come up with the idea to have Old Mr. Su say that Dahu and the others were picked up by your father?”

He had never told her about the three little ones’ background. Did she have any suspicions?

Su Xiaoxiao responded, “Oh, since it’s now officially acknowledged in front of the emperor, then the sons are mine from now on!”
