Su Qingqing felt uneasy when she saw her daughter looking drowsy.
Su Qingqing put the child down: "Mom, Xinxin didn't finish her milk today! She doesn't seem to be in high spirits. She won't eat even when I feed her."
Mother Su wiped her hands on her apron and came over: "She doesn't like to drink milk much today. Her face has been red all the time, but her forehead isn't hot and she doesn't have a fever."
At this time, Su's father and second uncle pushed the door open and came in. Su Honglin was stunned when he saw Qingqing.
Then he muttered gloomily, "You still remember to come back? I think you walked into the wrong door!"
Second uncle Su Honggang glanced at Qingqing indifferently.
Qingqing acted as if she didn't hear Qingqing's polite greeting and had no choice but to go into the kitchen to help out awkwardly.
Mom called out to the kitchen, "Yongxi, your dad and second uncle are coming to eat. Bring up the dishes!"
Su Qingqing helped serve the dishes, but she didn't sit down to eat because she was worried about Xinxin.
He pretended not to be hungry and walked towards the bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, a figure jumped down from the windowsill.
When he jumped down, he held the window frame with his hand. Su Qingqing could see clearly that the hand was wearing a black glove.
Wearing gloves in such hot weather is really a bit abnormal!
Su Qingqing quickly ran to the window, but there was nothing there, just like before.
Su Qingqing was very familiar with this figure. This was the third time she saw him after traveling through time.
Mask, gloves, and such agile movements.
Every time he disappears in the blink of an eye, who is this person?
Su Qingqing turned around and hurried to check on Xiao Xinxin, who was fast asleep this time. Her hands and feet were warm, and her face wasn't as red as before.
The most important thing is that the cinnabar mole between the eyebrows has returned to its bright red color.
Su Qingqing reached out to touch her little face, but the little one twisted her mouth and took hold of one of her mother's fingers, sucking it hard.
It seems that he is really hungry this time and is looking for milk!
Su Qingqing quickly lay down beside Xinxin and just lifted her clothes. The little guy found her nipple and started sucking it with ease.
Su Qingqing was finally relieved this time, but the half mask and black gloves in her mind could not be shaken off.
At the dinner table, Su Hong just took a sip of wine and sighed:
"I really don't understand what's wrong. This is the first time in all the years we've been together that we've failed to meet expectations. Why can't we invite him? If this gets out, no one will come to us for treatment in the future."
Mother Su asked in surprise: "What happened to you two? What happened?"
Su Honggang said depressedly, "Sister-in-law, isn't it strange? I sang until my voice was hoarse while helping someone to ask a diviner to treat their illness. But my brother didn't move at all. The diviner simply refused to come. People waited for a long time, but my brother didn't respond. Oh, it's so embarrassing!"
Seeing that her husband had a cold face, Mother Su didn't touch the food at all and just drank the wine mouthful by mouthful.
So he picked up a piece of fish and gave it to Su Honglin: "Eat fish, it's fresh! If you ask me, this is a good idea. You two should stop doing this. You two have been treating patients together for so many years, and there are all kinds of rumors outside."
"Even if we don't care about other people's sarcasm, we still have to take care of our bodies. Every time you see a doctor, you feel uncomfortable for several days."
Su Honglin coughed twice and said, "That's easy for you to say. If it were that simple, I would have given up long ago."
Su Honggang quickly poured wine for his elder brother: "That's right, that's right. As the saying goes, 'It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away.' This thing is blackmailing you. Once you provoke it, it's not that easy to get rid of it."
"Besides, this must have been an accident today. Let's burn some incense and offer some delicious food to the guardian deity. I guarantee we'll be able to invite him next time."
Su Yongxi saw that his second uncle was always smiling attentively, and his father's complexion was not as good as before.
So he said distressedly: "Uncle, you are in good health. My father is old and can't bear it. This is a physical job. I can't do it even if I ask you to do it."
Su Honggang glanced at Su Yongxi and said, "I don't know how my brother is doing. Is it necessary for you to talk nonsense here? It seems that you are the only one who cares about your father. Your father has served the two immortals Hu and Huang for most of his life. If he doesn't do it, you will do it?"
When Mother Su saw that Su Yongxi was scolded and didn't dare to say anything, she rushed to pick up meat and fish for him.
I blamed Boss Su in my heart for being so useless. Is it necessary for him to respect such an elder?
"His second uncle, Yongxi is absolutely right. Your eldest brother just can't jump anymore. I remember that it was because you were in poor health, and you said that as long as your brother offered sacrifices to the Bao family immortals, your illness could be cured. Wasn't it because your brother felt sorry for you being bedridden for several years and almost losing your life that he agreed?"
Su Honggang nodded hastily, his face full of flattery: "Sister-in-law, if it weren't for my brother, I would be dead now. How could I have married, had children, and lived to this day!"
"I'll never forget my brother's kindness to me. So, I've only taken a small portion of the money I've received from patients over the years. The rest..."
"Hehe, don't mention this to me."
Mother Su thought to herself, if you hadn't mentioned this, I wouldn't be angry. You took a small portion on the surface, but secretly you got many times more than your brother!
Your brother is just concerned about the brotherly love and doesn't want to expose you, but you treat him like a fool.
Su Honggang quickly gave a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law is very understanding and righteous. Family members don't talk behind each other's backs. Sister-in-law is like a mother. In my heart, you are the best..."
Mother Su no longer had the mood to argue with him. Since the patient didn't get treated today, she might as well take this opportunity to let them go their separate ways.
