Qin Yingxian watched the person who had jumped three feet away, and instantly puffed up her cheeks like a little toad with anger. "Sister Su, look, my brother always bullies me. Sister Su, you have to help me..."
Su Hua was about to close the restaurant door and walk out when she saw the girl's sullen little face and couldn't help but want to tease her.
He glanced at Qin Yucheng lightly.
"How does Yingxian want me to help you?"
His gaze, seven parts aloofness and three parts teasing, directly caused the latter to blush.
Qin Yingxian, who was still angry, immediately stretched out her small hand and pointed it directly at him.
"I want Sister Su to help me beat up my brother! Beat him up badly!!"
Su Hua almost burst out laughing, then pursed her lips to suppress the smile. "What kind of severe beating does Ying Xian mean by 'severely beating'? Does he mean whipping me hard with a shoehorn? Or slapping me on the ground? Or maybe he'll call my three brothers to come along and whip me with shoehorns while slapping me with his hands. Does Ying Xian want a beating that draws blood, or one that doesn't?"
With each word she spoke, the girl's pouty face showed a growing degree of hesitation.
Finally, he shook his head like a rattle-drum and hurriedly grabbed Su Hua, begging for mercy in a low voice, "Why did you have to beat me so badly? How about we let your brother owe you to Sister Su for now, and we'll talk about it next time?"
"Hahahaha..."
Su Hua finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.
The way siblings get along is indeed ever-changing. In their family, the three Su brothers, under Su Bai's brainwashing, are all-around doting brother-sister fanatics. As for the Qin siblings, it's obvious that they must have plenty of fun every day.
Seeing the girl's overjoyed expression, Qin Yucheng couldn't help but smile as well.
Yingxian was naturally lively, but the Qin family only had the two of them in Qingshui County, so they were usually restrained. However, in front of Su Hua, their restrained nature was immediately unleashed.
She was truly different from the women around her.
"Whoa—"
As the three chatted and laughed, Ah Cai drove his sandalwood carriage steadily to a stop in front of the restaurant.
The carriage curtain was half-open, and Su Hua looked up to see Su Dahu sitting upright by the window.
"Hua'er!"
"Yingxian! Yucheng!"
Su Hua was somewhat surprised, "Big Brother!"
Su Dahu greeted the three of them and, seeing the surprise on her face, knew exactly what she was thinking. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Today is April 20th. The school has a day off every ten days. Because some students live far away, they only need to attend half a day of classes on the last day of the ten-day period before having a holiday. I saw Ah Cai at the school gate just now, so we came together."
Su Hua was somewhat enlightened, but a strange feeling also arose in her heart.
It has to be said that Wei Jianjia chose a rather opportune day and time for the Hundred Flowers Banquet. The beginning of the 20th of the month coincided with the time when Baichuan Academy would be dismissed. If it had been on a different day, or even an hour earlier, Su Dahu would not have gone to the banquet.
