Hei Bao had never encountered anything like this before. Hei Bao wanted to see if she could handle it. "Twelfth Brother, Thirteenth Brother, let me handle it, okay?"

12, 13: "Okay."

Hei Bao looked at Su Shuangrui and asked, "Would you kill someone in public?"

Su Shuangrui: "...This place is more secluded."

"That's true. Then why didn't she seal your mouth? If she didn't seal your mouth, everyone around would hear you if you shouted."

Su Shuangrui didn't know how to answer.

Hei Bao sat at the small table on the boat, resting his chin on his hand, looking into Su Shuangrui's eyes and asking, "Do you think your young lady is stupid? Or do you think we're stupid?"

"I...I..."

Hei Bao smiled. "No unruly servant ever ends well. Do you think you'll be an exception?"

“I…I am not a wicked servant.”

"Didn't you make your young lady row your boat like a servant?"

"I...I..."

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' ' ' ' ''.' When you rowed from the shore to here, everyone saw you sitting at the bow of the boat like a grandpa, leisurely enjoying the scenery. Your young lady has such a good temper; if it were me, I would have thrown you into the lake long ago.'"

"..." Oh no! He was so focused on finding the person who was working with the young lady that he forgot they were outside. "Young lady, I... no, I was wrong. Young lady, please forgive me, I will never dare to do it again."

Hei Bao: "..." Giving up so quickly? No fun. "Twelfth Brother, Thirteenth Brother, the lotus flowers over there are beautiful, let's go look at them."

12, 13: "Okay."

Seeing that Twelve and the others were about to leave, Su Xiaoya quickly said, "Thank you for trusting me. Can I go boating on the lake with you?"

Considering Su Xiaoya dared to push the unruly servant into the lake, Hei Bao nodded. "Alright. You're the daughter of Vice Minister Su of the Ministry of Works, aren't you?"

"Yes." Su Xiaoya rowed the boat and followed. "Greetings, Twelfth Young Master, Thirteenth Young Master, Miss Black, Miss White."

Hei Bao hummed in agreement.

Twelve, Thirteen, and Xiaobai nodded to Su Xiaoya.

In the blink of an eye, Twelve and the others, along with Su Xiaoya, disappeared.

Su Shuangrui wanted to tell Su Xiaoya that he hadn't boarded the boat yet. However, he was afraid that Twelve and the others would remember that he had asked Su Xiaoya to row the boat for him.

In the end, Su Shuangrui had no choice but to swim back by himself, feeling utterly miserable.

On the other hand, after using all her skills, Su Xiaoya finally won Hei Bao's favor.

Around noon, Hei Bao looked at Su Xiaoya and said, "We're going to grill fish on the boat. Would you like to try our cooking?"

Of course I want it.

Su Shuangrui will most likely complain to her father after she goes back.

"May I? I would be so honored."

"Okay. Come on over. Twelfth Brother, Thirteenth Brother, you two tie Miss Su's boat to the back of our boat."

"good."

After Su Xiaoya got on Twelve's boat, she looked at Hei Bao and asked, "Should we buy fish from the boatman or catch them ourselves?"

"Fire it yourself. If you don't catch anything, you'll go hungry."

Su Xiaoya laughed upon hearing this. "Miss Hei, you're really joking."

"I'm not joking. If you don't believe me, ask my twelfth brother."

Really?

Su Xiaoya looked towards Twelve.

As he prepared the bait, Twelve said, "It's true."

"..."

As he rowed, Thirteen said, "Were we on a pirate ship now?"

Su Xiaoya nodded. "Is it too late for me to go down now?"

Twelve fish baits were cast into the lake. "Too late, you'll just have to wait to go hungry."

"Looks like I'll have to learn how to fish." Su Xiaoya looked at Hei Bao and smiled, "Miss Hei, do you know how to fish?"

"meeting."

"Can you teach me?"

"Can."

An hour later, Su Xiaoya finally got to eat the grilled fish.

Su Xiaoya said sincerely, "The fish smells delicious today!"

Twelve, Thirteen, Black Treasure, and Little White all laughed.

Meanwhile, Su Shuangrui went back to change his clothes and then went to find his father.

When Su Gui saw his son arrive, he thought his son had found out who Su Xiaoya was partnering with.

Unexpectedly, his son told him that Su Xiaoya not only pushed him into the lake but also threatened him.

Su Gui was very angry.

Su Gui wanted to tell Vice Minister Su about this immediately.

However, his son made a big mistake.

His son shouldn't have let Su Xiaoya row for him in front of everyone.

"Son, we have no choice but to accept this."

"ah?!"

Su Gui looked at Su Shuangrui and said, "The eldest young lady is different from the madam. The madam only knows how to cry, but the eldest young lady dares to challenge the master. Doesn't the master dare to do anything to her? She must have calculated that we wouldn't dare to complain to the master before she pushed you into the water."

Su Shuangrui knew that Su Xiaoya was different from Madam Su. But he never expected that Su Xiaoya would dare to scheme against him. His and his son's status in the Su family was much higher than Su Xiaoya's.

"You're just going to let it go like that?"

"A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years."

"Okay. You go ahead with your work, I'm going back now."

"Um."

After finishing their grilled fish, Twelve and Su Xiaoya went ashore.

We parted ways after getting ashore.

Twelve and the others went home, while Su Xiaoya went to the shop.

After Su Xiaoya left, Hei Bao looked at Twelve and Thirteen with a smile and said, "I heard that some snacks from the northern frontier have appeared in Shenjing City, so I had the servants buy some to try. Guess what happened?"

Twelve lifted the black treasure and placed it on the horse's back. "Your thirteenth brother and I just want to earn some extra pocket money."
