At Lihua Lane.  

After Su Ergou left for school, Su Xiaoxiao brought out three small book bags that she had sewn herself and draped one over each of the three children’s shoulders.  

The bags included no books, only a box of snacks, a bottle of water, and a sweat towel she had cut herself.  

Today was also the day the three little ones started their apprenticeship.  

“Dad, we’re heading out now. No need to lock the door later, I’ll be back soon.”  

Su Cheng thought, ‘Of course I won’t lock the door, I’m not going anywhere……’

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Qin Canglan appeared at the door.  

Old Marquis was with him, pushed in a wheelchair.  

“Eh?”  

Su Cheng looked at Qin Canglan, then at Su Yuan’s father, somewhat confused about how these two had ended up together.  

He scratched his head. 

“Well, you two—”  

Before he could finish his question, Old Marquis abruptly stood up from the wheelchair and rushed to Su Cheng’s side, accompanied by Qin Canglan.

Each grabbed one of his arms.  

Su Cheng’s eyes widened. 

“What are you doing?”  

The two dragged him onto the carriage.  

Old Marquis sat back down in the wheelchair.  

He glanced at the empty courtyard before walking over to pick up the lunchbox from the table and returning to his wheelchair. 

Su Xiaoxiao’s snacks for Su Cheng were eventually put to use—  

……  

Su Xiaoxiao led the three little ones to the residence at the east end.  

Knock, knock, knock. 

Su Xiaoxiao knocked on the door.

Deng An was the one who answered.  

Ling Yun was also there.  

She wasn’t sure if he’d just gotten up or hadn’t slept all night, but his hair was disheveled, and he appeared unwell.  

However, he wasn’t truly ill, but rather chronically weak as a result of poor eating habits.  

“M-Madam Su!” Deng An exclaimed in surprise.  

The title ‘Madam Su’ was actually a misunderstanding.  

Deng An had once asked Dahu what his name was, and Dahu said, “Dahu.” 

When Deng An asked for his full name, Dahu thought for a moment and said, “Su Dahu.”  

Su Cheng had indeed named the three children that way: Su Dahu, Su Erhu, and Su Xiaohu.  

However, normally everyone called them Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu, seemingly overlooking the surname. Only Dahu remembered it.  

So, Deng An assumed that Su Xiaoxiao’s husband was surnamed Su.  

“Madam Su?” Su Xiaoxiao was even more surprised than Deng An.  

Deng An asked, “Is that… not right? Your husband’s surname is Su, what else should I call you then?”  

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh, my husband’s surname is Wei.”  

Deng An: “……”  

Su Xiaoxiao explained her purpose to Ling Yun.  

“Teaching one is equivalent to teaching three. Dahu and Erhu are both very talented.”  

Ling Yun stared at the three little ones standing in a row with their book bags, his expression unreadable.  

He was about to refuse.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a large box of freshly baked pastries and said, 

“I have made some jujube nut cakes and soufflés.”   

-Jujube nut cakes 

-Soufflés

Looking at the moist but not greasy, fragrant and flaky pastries, Ling Yun’s tongue tied, and his words of refusal were swallowed along with his saliva.  

Having sworn never to take another disciple in this lifetime, Ling Yun ultimately betrayed his principles for two boxes of pastries.  

By the time Master Zhang, the musician, finished washing up and came out, he discovered that Ling Yun had gained three new disciples.  

Due to the commotion caused by Wei Ting, Qin Yanran came late. 

She arrived at Lihua Lane half an hour later than usual.  

Su Xiaoxiao, having confirmed that everything was in order, was preparing to head home.  

The two ran into each other right at the door.  

The last time they met was at the Marquis of Zhenbei’s residence. 

At that time, Qin Yanran was the lofty daughter of the Duke Protector’s household, calling the old marquis her grandfather, while Su Xiaoxiao was merely the apprentice of a folk doctor.  

Their statuses were as far apart as clouds and mud.  

Yet who could have predicted that in just half a month, that plump little girl would snatch away everything that belonged to her and replace her as the young lady of the Duke Protector’s household?  

Qin Yanran’s expression was incredibly complex.  

Su Xiaoxiao’s reaction, however, was much more indifferent.  

She glanced at Qin Yanran, her eyes devoid of any emotion, as if Qin Yanran meant nothing to her.  

And indeed, that was the reality.  

Compared to being confronted with hostility, being ignored was the hardest to accept.  

Qin Yanran called out to Su Xiaoxiao, “Wait.”  

Su Xiaoxiao turned to look at Qin Yanran.

“Do you need anything?”  

Qin Yanran opened her mouth. “You.…..”  

For a moment, she was at a loss for words.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “Do you want to know about Old Marquis’s condition?”  

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Qin Yanran’s face.
