The child's guarded little body relaxed and he instantly fainted on the couch.
"Dad, is he dead?"
Su Xingyi quickly reached out and felt his breath, which was very weak.
Take the person out of the couch, quickly close the horizontal board, and place the person on the couch.
"Xingyun, hurry back to Luoxia Cottage."
Xingyun hesitated for a moment, "Master Su, this child's origins are unknown, and the clothes he wears are all made of fine materials. I suggest that it would be best to send the child to the government."
"Dad, he might have been abducted by the beggars. If we send him to Uncle Lin Kun, we can quickly find his parents. If we send him back to Luoxia Cottage, his parents won't be able to find him."
Su Ninganwen said: "If his parents come looking for him, they will misunderstand that we kidnapped him."
Su Xingyi glanced at the sleeping child for a few seconds, then remembered the words of the rickshaw dealer. "Okay, let's go to the government office."
"Mrs. Su."
Xiao Lingyu looked in the direction of the sound and saw the constables carrying more than a dozen loads and coming hurriedly from a distance.
"Captain Lin, is this a major case?!"
"Yes, more than a dozen people died at the county's north dock, and their identities are still unknown. We must hurry back to the government office to investigate. Xishui County may be unsafe these days. Madam Su and the children must be careful and attentive."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lingyu tightened his grip on Xiao Xier's hand. "Thank you, Captain Lin, for the reminder. I won't bother you any more. Please hurry up and solve the case. Find the mastermind behind this as soon as possible and seek justice for these dozen lives."
Lin Kun nodded. "Madam Su, I saw the three of them at the dock. There were a lot of people watching. I hope Madam Su can remind Master Su not to take the children there next time. There are often incidents of beggars kidnapping children there."
Xiao Lingyu's expression tensed. Although no one could hurt them, he was still somewhat worried.
"Thanks to Captain Lin for reminding me. They are going to buy a car. They will be fine."
After watching Lin Kun and the others walk away, Xiao Lingyu brought Xiao Xier into the 'Yudian Sweet Cake' shop next to 'Yuxiang Tea'.
"Mom, the cake shop is ready. When will the cakes be sold?"
Xiao Lingyu took Su Ningxi straight to the backyard and said as they walked, "Let the chefs practice more. After all, the cake is not easy to make and it is easy to burn it."
"Oh, yes."
"Mrs. Su, today's egg tarts are in excellent condition."
As soon as they entered the large open-air kitchen in the backyard, two noodle chefs brought a plate of freshly baked egg tarts to the mother and daughter.
Seeing the steaming egg tarts, Xiao Xier took a deep sip of the rose milk tea in her hand.
Wait a little longer.
She can eat it by taking a sip of milk tea and a bite of egg tart.
"Very good, this is indeed a good appearance. From now on, the egg tarts from Yudian Sweet Cake will be made according to this standard. Do you remember the temperature and time today?"
Xu Shouyi said, "Zhang Xuan and I have made a note of this. We will ensure that the egg tarts will be as good as they are today when we open for business."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and glanced at the other three ovens of different sizes. "When will the cake be out of the oven?"
"A quarter of an hour more."
A quarter of an hour later, three freshly baked cakes of different sizes were served on the table. Xiao Xier picked up the egg tart next to it and started eating without hesitation.
After half a month of practice, the two chefs' cake baking skills have greatly improved, and the cake bases they bake are firm and thick.
"Okay, we can continue with the next steps."
Half an incense stick later, three flawless birthday cakes appeared in front of the mother and daughter.
"Mom, it looks like we can open the shop and sell birthday cakes now."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said to Xu Shouyi, "Are you sure we can officially open for business in three days?"
Xu Shouyi thought that other cakes were sold openly, while birthday cakes were made fresh and delivered to customers' homes. He believed in his craftsmanship and said, "Mrs. Su, no problem."
"Okay, over the next three days, you'll make cakes of different sizes and refrigerate them in the icebox. On the day we open, place them in a prominent location in the store for display purposes only."
Xiao Lingyu looked at Zhang Xuan and said, "After our sweet cake shop opens for business for a month, you can return to Huayang County to take charge of the situation."
Zhang Xuan's eyes were filled with joy, "Yes, Madam. I will definitely live up to your expectations."
After eating and drinking her fill, Xiao Xier smacked her lips and said, "Mom, Godfather's green orange mint milk tea should be ready by now. Let's go back quickly. We can't keep Godfather waiting for too long."
On the other side, Xingyun drove the carriage to the vicinity of the county government office.
The child on the couch suddenly opened his eyes.
"Child, are you awake?"
"Daddy, don't leave me." The child held Su Xingyi's thumb tightly.
Su Ningan frowned, looking unhappy, "Hey kid, he's not your dad, he's my dad."
“Wow wow wow…”
The child on the couch burst into tears, "Daddy, he is mean to me."
Su Ningan, Su Ningwen: ...
Su Xingyi was helpless and coaxed softly, "Don't cry, don't cry, Daddy won't abandon you."
The child immediately stopped crying and said, "Daddy, let's go home. I'm hungry."
As soon as the words fell.
A gurgling sound came from the child's abdomen.
"Hungry……"
The next second the child fainted again.
"Master, we've arrived at the county government office."
Su Xingyi watched the child holding his thumb tightly with all his might, and felt his deep uneasiness, with tears hanging on his curled eyelashes.
Su Xingyi's heart tightened immediately. He had just called him daddy. "Buy a bowl of millet porridge along the way. Let's hurry back to Luoxia Cottage."
Su Ning'an said anxiously, "Dad, his origins are unknown, we can't let him go to Luoxia Cottage."
Su Ningwen echoed, "Yes, Dad, his biological parents are looking for him. They might be filing a report to the government office right now."
Just now, this kid called their dad "Dad", and it was obvious that he came to steal their dad's place.
They don't allow it!
Su Xingyi felt that his palms were very hot, and then touched his forehead.
"He has caught a cold and is hungry. Send him back to Luoxia Cottage first. Your mother will not leave him to die. It won't be too late to send him to the government office after he gets better."
Su Ning'an reached out and touched his forehead, which was indeed very hot.
"Then let's go back quickly."
The carriage passed by a porridge shop, and Su Xingyi bought a bowl of rice oil and carefully fed it to the unconscious child.
Su Ning'an and Su Ningwen looked at the child in front of them with concern.
"We agree that you can go back to Luoxia Cottage with us, but you must wake up..."
After waiting for a long time, we arrived at Luoxia Cottage, but the child on the bed still hadn't woken up.
"Master Su, hey... where... where did this child come from?"
Li Yuanliang hurried forward and saw that his face was red, so he quickly took his pulse.
After a moment, Li Yuanliang hurried to the kitchen.
Su Xingyi carried the person into the east room, "Brother An, go get a basin of cold water."
Half an incense stick later, Xiao Lingyu and his mother entered Luoxia Cottage carrying extra-large cups of green orange mint milk tea.
"Godfather, the extra large milk tea is here."
Feng Jinyu heard the voice before he saw the person, and a warm current instantly flowed through his body.
