Su Bai's face darkened as she looked at the Qian family, old and young, who had brought two eggs.

But Madam Qian seemed oblivious, smiling as she placed the egg in Su Erhu's hand and then pushed the little boy she was holding toward Madam Su, saying, "Tianci, go and call Grandma Su, and tell her happy birthday, okay?"

Although Tianci is only five or six years old, he is not afraid of strangers at all.

Looking at Su Baishi, she immediately called out "Grandma Su" in a crisp voice and even cupped her hands in a proper gesture of congratulations.

"Alright, everyone, sit down quickly. Everyone's been waiting for you all morning." Su Baishi turned her head away somewhat uncomfortably. As an old woman, she couldn't very well give a little kid a hard time.

Especially when so many eyes are watching.

The Qian family has no shame, but she still has a sense of shame.

Every year on her birthday, they arrive right on time, as if they're afraid the Su family will ask them to help with chores. In the past, at most three or four people would come, but now, the whole family, young and old, comes, even the baby who's still nursing.

If it weren't for the fact that the old man's coffin was too heavy to lift, they probably would have carried it along with him.

Moreover, when they say two eggs, they really mean two eggs, the same size as the pigeon eggs we used to have at home. It's just so disgusting to look at.

"Hey, everyone, eat and drink well, no need to wait for this old woman." Mother Qian grinned, and like the hostess, pushed her son and daughter-in-law to sit at a table with the younger generation, while she herself squeezed into a seat between Su Baishi and Aunt Zhou.

Su Hua had just taken a sip of the fish and mutton soup.

Then they saw the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Qian family wielding their chopsticks like throwing knives.

In a few swift movements, he poured out most of the braised offal from the center dish. Qian Tianci, on the other hand, was even faster. Without even picking up his chopsticks, he grabbed the meat with his dark hands and stuffed it into his mouth, the black grime on his fingers clearly visible.

As for the baby, it was placed in Qian's arms.

Su Hua suddenly lost her appetite.

"Hua'er, come on, eat quickly." The Qian family members were quick, but Su Sui was even faster. Before Qian Tianci could finish eating the dishes, she stood up and quickly used her chopsticks to pick up a large bowl of meat and vegetables from the clean parts of each bowl, placing it in front of Su Hua with great familiarity.

Then, she regained her usual composure and picked up the remaining dishes on the table.

Su Hua was somewhat stunned. No wonder Su Sui had gone to the cupboard to get a large bowl before leaving the kitchen.

Moreover, this wasn't the first time. Although the original owner was somewhat simple-minded, she was very clean. So, at banquets hosted by wealthy families, her older sister would always secretly serve her a bowl of food.

“Sui’er treats her younger sister much better than she treats me, her husband.”

Wang Chunfu's slightly sarcastic and teasing words pulled Su Hua back from her memories.

She raised her almond-shaped eyes slightly and glanced at him casually. "My older sister only has me as her younger sister, so naturally she cherishes me dearly! Moreover, my older sister has always been the softest-hearted one. If my brother-in-law cherishes my older sister, then my older sister will naturally treat him even more like the apple of her eye. Don't you think that makes sense?"

Due to the terrain of the courtyard, the two tables for the elders and the younger generation were placed some distance apart.

Su Hua's voice wasn't loud, but only the people at this table could hear it clearly.

The Qian family members were busy eating and didn't react much, but the Su brothers immediately put down their chopsticks and stared at Wang Chunfu, their scrutinizing eyes growing stronger with each other.

Wang Chunfu's hand, which was scooping soup, stiffened slightly. He glanced at Su Sui, who was eating quietly beside him, and asked with a hint of curiosity, "What does Sister Hua'er mean by this? I don't quite understand. Could it be that Sui'er has badmouthed me to you?"

Su Sui paused with her chopsticks, but said nothing, simply lowering her head to quietly drink her soup.

It was the first time Hua'er had made this soup, so she wanted to drink more of it.

“My older sister is not the type to badmouth others.”

Su Hua's gaze fell on the dark circles under the man's eyes, and her almond-shaped eyes turned almost imperceptibly cold. "It's just that my brother-in-law's face is pale, his eyes are dark, and his voice is weak. He must be busy day and night."

However, being busy all the time is not a good thing. The Chinese character for "busy" can be broken down into "heart" and "death".

If your heart is dead, what else can you talk about? Your heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, gallbladder, intestines, stomach, and bladder will probably all be ruined. At that time, forget about having a baby; your life will be in danger.

At that time, even if my older sister runs to countless temples and prays to countless Buddhas, it will probably be of no use.

The girl's voice was clear and cold, and she didn't sound like she was joking at all.

Hearing this, Wang Chunfu's brow twitched, and he felt the fish and mutton in his hand burning even more intensely.

Su Erhu scratched his head and glanced at Wang Chunfu. He remembered that Hua'er had said that her brother-in-law was the most handsome, with fair skin and a pleasant voice. How come he had become pale and weak in just a few months?

A thoughtful look flashed in Su Dahu's eyes.

Her daughter, Hua'er, has directly pinned the blame for Wang Chunfu's infertility on him with just a few words.

Wang Chunfu pursed his lips for a long while before finally managing a gentle smile. "According to what Hua'er is saying, is it that brother-in-law's days are numbered and there is no cure?"

“No, no.” Su Hua shook her head and scooped half of the clean food from the large bowl back into Su Sui’s bowl. “I was fortunate enough to learn a little about traditional Chinese medicine from my master. In diagnosis, observation, listening, questioning and palpation are all necessary. Observation is only the first step. The key is still to examine the patient. You should eat a few bites quickly, and I will take your pulse.”

After saying that, he buried his head and started eating.

The food I prepared this morning tasted really good.

Especially the braised offal, steamed assorted preserved meats, and steamed fish head with chopped chili peppers, each one can be considered an absolute delicacy.

In the blink of an eye, she finished all the food in her bowl. Without waiting for Wang Chunfu to react, she stood up and stared at him with her clear black and white eyes.

To be precise, I was staring at his wrist.

Wang Chunfu stared at her so intently that he placed the fish and mutton soup, which he had finally managed to drink, on the table, and rolled up a corner of his sleeve, saying, "In that case, I'll trouble Hua'er."

Without saying a word, Su Hua gently raised her hand and placed it on the man's pulse, her almond-shaped eyes slightly closed.

His earnest demeanor immediately drew the attention of everyone at the table. Even the Qian family members, who had been eating non-stop, subconsciously stopped, and even the elders at the table in the distance frequently looked over, almost as if they were about to bring their bowls over.

"Big sister, does Hua really know medicine?"

"A few days ago, Doctor Zhou came to see Huaya, saying he wanted to learn about medicine. Could it be that Huaya is even more skilled than Doctor Zhou?"

“That’s right. Whenever we have a headache or fever, we go to the Zhou family pharmacy. In the surrounding area, Dr. Zhou’s medical skills are the best. Even Dr. Zhou comes to consult us. Isn’t Hua’er’s medical skills unmatched?”

Su Bai waved her hand and briefly recounted Su Hua's words when she asked to become her disciple.

However, she had no intention of showing off at the moment.

Instead, my heart was pounding with anxiety.
