Chapter 18



The Xiao family was all numb.

Along the way, everyone knew that Su Qingning was very capable, but no one thought that she could take out more than a dozen hot meat buns from a bundle.

This can no longer be called a great ability, it can simply be called a magical skill!

At the same time, everyone had the same thought in their mind: could it be that God saw that the Xiao family had been treated unfairly and sent fairies from heaven to save them?

There were complicated expressions in everyone's eyes.

Fortunately, everyone was able to withstand the pressure well and everything returned to normal soon.

They all sat closer together tacitly, blocking the view of outsiders.

Xiao Huaishuo was the first to react, breaking the deathly silence.

"Thanks to grandma's thoughtfulness, otherwise we would be hungry."

The rest of the crowd followed suit.

"Yes! Thanks to Ningning, otherwise we would have suffered so much along the way!"

"Oh my - Madam Gu's cooking skills are really good. I haven't even eaten this meat bun yet, but I can smell its fragrance."

The younger sister Xiao Qingya stared at Su Qingning with stars in her eyes:

"My sister-in-law is so amazing, just like a fairy in a picture book!"

Grandmother Liu Qing looked around with a worried look on her face.

Fortunately, everyone was hungry and tired at that time, and they were either busy eating or lying down to rest, so no one noticed this. I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the Xiao family members around him, Liu Qing was still worried and warned them sternly:

"Listen to me, everyone. Ning Ning is not an ordinary person. She is willing to accompany us into exile and is willing to be kind to us. That's because she is kind. We should also be worthy of her kindness!"

"Be considerate of others in everything! Never tell Ningning's secret to anyone!"

Everyone agreed and looked at Su Qingning with gratitude.

"People have mutual feelings. My brother and sister-in-law are so good to us, so we should definitely compensate them double."

"Yes! If it wasn't for Ningning, we would have had a very miserable journey. It is a blessing for our Xiao family to marry Ningning, so how can we spread such rumors to others?"

Xiao Qingya also pretended to cover her mouth with her hands, her big round eyes twinkling, looking very adorable.

"Ya'er doesn't know anything either."

Su Qingning was very satisfied to see the Xiao family working together.

Since they are so cooperative, it will be much more convenient to get things in the future without having to hide anything.

He wrapped a few meat buns in oil paper and asked his younger brother Xiao Huaijin to give them to the messengers.

He then quietly handed a bun of pastries to Xiao Qingya, and then started to share the buns with everyone.

Although the messengers had brought their own dry food, they couldn't help but light up when they saw the meat buns that were so finely crafted.

When she heard that it was food brought to her by Su Qingning's grandmother, she did not suspect anything.

While eating the buns in the buns, his eyes softened when he looked at the Xiao family again.

The Xiao family sat together in a tightly sealed circle, and Su Qingning deliberately let the wind blow to a deserted place, so the smell of meat here did not reach everyone's nose. Not many people noticed their abnormality.

Xiao Qingya held a piece of cake in her left hand and a big meat bun in her right hand, munching on them with a smacking sound, her eyes narrowed into crescent shapes with satisfaction.

After eating something delicious, he eagerly passed it to Su Qingning, "Sister-in-law, you should try some mung bean cake too."

"Okay, sister-in-law, eat too." Su Qingning took the pastry from her mouth, feeling happy.

Who in my family understands! It’s so nice to suddenly have a little sister!

Xiao Huaishuo ate the buns slowly and saw that all the women in the family were focusing their attention on Su Qingning and trying their best to take good care of her.

I inexplicably felt a sense of crisis in my heart, feeling that my family's status was in jeopardy.

After some inner struggle, he wiped it clean carefully and picked the biggest bun to hand to her.

"Are you tired? Eat more."

"good."

Su Qingning didn't notice his somewhat awkward tone and movements.

A big smile bloomed on her fair little face, which was even brighter than the bright sun.

Xiao Huaishuo's heart couldn't help but tremble from the shaking, and he almost dropped the bun on the ground.

Su Qingning took it hurriedly, and when she saw the faint blush on Xiao Huaishuo's earlobe, she almost couldn't laugh anymore.

Hahaha, the contrast between the patriotic god of war and the innocent boy is really amazing!

Give me more, I love watching!

While the Xiao family was living in harmony and happiness, the Su family was in a state of misery.

The dry rations given by Shen's parents were not much to begin with, and Su Bingsheng forced them to distribute them to several favored concubines and illegitimate sons and daughters.

Even if all the food was distributed, there was only enough for everyone to eat half full.

The other unfavored concubines and servants who followed were poor and hungry and could only eat free black-faced steamed buns.

I had been thirsty all day and my throat was burning.

Without food and without the energy to hurry, all they could do was hold back their tears and endure the severe pain in their throats, chewing up the hard-as-stone buns and swallowing them.

Su Bingsheng and Su Chengzhi were covered with new and old wounds. They lay on the ground with their backs up, groaning.

Blaming the sky, the earth, and others means not thinking about your own reasons.

The only consolation was that they had Shen's bun for lunch today.

Seeing people around me chewing steamed buns with great difficulty made me feel better.

I just wanted to see the miserable life of that little bitch Su Qingning to cheer myself up.

However, the Xiao family members were huddled together tightly, and the father and son changed their angles several times before they vaguely saw Su Qingning eating a bun.

At this time, everyone in the Xiao family had almost finished eating. There were only a few meat buns on the table. The father and son of the Su family just thought that Su Qingning had taken them from her bag.

The two of them were so angry that their eyes sparkled with hatred, and their stomachs, which were not hungry to begin with, began to growl.

Su Chengzhi had often bullied Su Qingning in the prime minister's residence before, and he did not hide it now. He walked towards her with his fat body shaking.

"You little bitch, give me all the meat buns on your body!"

Good job guys! Even professional robbers are not so arrogant!

Before Su Qingning could move, he saw Xiao Huaishuo move his fingers.

A stone flew out and hit Su Chengzhi on the knee.

"bump--"

"ah--"

Su Chengzhi felt a sharp pain in his knee. He became unsteady and knelt down in front of the Xiao family.

"Hahaha--"

People around couldn't help but laugh.

Su Qingning also smiled.

Help! I didn't expect that you, the god of war, still have some sense of humor!

He took a big bite of the steamed bun and said in a weird tone:

"Hey~ Isn't this my good elder brother? He came here to kowtow to us just a month ago? I appreciate your kindness, please leave."

Su Chengzhi recovered from his stress and came back to his senses, a trace of doubt flashed through his mind. He was not sure if someone had played a trick on him just now, which made him look so ugly in front of everyone.

But when he saw Su Qingning's smiling face, the anger in his heart began to rise, and he rushed forward and slapped her in the face.

"You little bastard! Did you do this on purpose?! Are you itching because I haven't taught you a lesson in a few days?!"

“Crack—”

Before Su Chengzhi's sword touched Su Qingning's face, she caught it deftly.

With a little force, it bent backwards at a strange angle.

"ah--"

"Ahhh! It hurts! Mom! Dad! How dare this little bastard hit me!!!"

It's really hilarious! A man in his twenties, he can't beat anyone but calls his parents!

Upon seeing this, Aunt Shen hurried over and protected Su Chengzhi behind her, treating his wounds with tears in her eyes.

Su Bingsheng saw that his precious child was being bullied, so he ran over and pointed at Su Qingning and started to curse:

"You rebellious girl! How dare you be so cruel to your brother! Why don't you kneel down and apologize to your brother!"
