Chapter 70 Even a beast wouldn't do this kind of thing
Su Da ran away.
Du Buqin chased after him and tried to snatch the baby.
The three kids jumped and skipped over to watch the fun.
Duan Dao also turned around and went back to the thatched hut next door, not staying at the Su family any longer until dinner time.
The small courtyard that was noisy a moment ago suddenly became quiet.
“Aunt, who were those two just now…?” Mrs. Lu asked tentatively with a flicker in her eyes.
Before coming here, the master of the first house mentioned that the Su family had gotten along with two capable people in the exile area.
One is the extraordinary Broken Blade.
One is the evil doctor that no one wants to mess with.
"It's the one who lives next door. The older one knows some medical skills." Old Lady Su glanced at her and said nothing more. Instead, she raised her voice and ordered Su Xiu'er, "Xiu'er, go see where the Poison Master has gone. When you find him, ask him if he can treat the little kid. There was a commotion just now, and he ran away before I could say anything."
Su Xiuer responded and went out.
Little Mrs. Lu knew that the old woman didn't want to say more, so she also knew the meaning and didn't ask any more questions, but she was secretly frightened in her heart.
Those two actually lived next door to Xiao Su's family. This little bit of information meant that as long as Xiao Su's family didn't move, they would always have someone strong to rely on.
Moreover, from the brief encounter just now, it can be seen that the two people's attitude towards the Su family is very close.
Otherwise, how could the Su family, having been exiled here, have the courage to chat and laugh freely with those two people?
The two houses are close to each other, so when this side is quiet, it is lively over there.
Su Da, who said he was taking his daughter to go bird hunting, walked out of the house and turned into the next door. He saw his father squatting under the eaves, who was said to have gone to greet them.
The father and son looked at each other and coughed awkwardly.
Before they could say anything, Du Buqin came back with his three sons, followed closely by Duan Dao.
"Oh, they're hiding here. One by one, two by two. Has my house become a refuge?"
As soon as Du Buqin opened his mouth, the father and son of the Su family hissed and clasped their hands together to beg for mercy. "The Su family is using the policy of pitiful soldiers this time. The ones sent to beg for mercy are women and children. We can't stand it any more, so we'll hide here first."
"What's the matter? Aren't you hiding from that tigress in your family?" Du Buqin complained mercilessly, "That's why I hate people like you who live a peaceful life the most. You are too soft-hearted. This is a place of exile. Being a good person means you have no good life. They clearly treat your family like meat and bones, and you are still polite to them? If it were me, I would just sprinkle poison on them and kill them. It would be clean and quiet."
How could the father and son not know their shortcomings? But they really couldn't change them in the short term, and they couldn't make up their minds to do so. They had been honest and dutiful for half their lives.
So this is just being manipulated.
"Tianbao, come to Grandpa Du! Listen to what Grandpa Du is telling you. Never imitate your grandfather and your father's temper in the future. They can't teach you anything good. Listen to Grandpa Du in everything from now on! I'll let you walk all over Fengyun City!"
In a blink of an eye, Tianbao fell into the arms of the crazy old man again.
The little baby ate rice cake quietly without saying a word.
She can walk on her own and she will learn quickly.
After finishing a large piece of rice cake, the baby brushed off the rice cake crumbs on his hands, and the next moment, his little claws mercilessly grabbed the crazy old man's hair.
Du Buqin jumped up and down in pain, "Ouch! You're pulling me, little brat?! I gave you that rice cake for nothing! You just called your grandma a tigress! Let go, you ungrateful little bastard! Let go, let go!"
Sweet baby, pull, pull, pull.
The Su family members nearby were stunned for a moment, then laughed in silence and watched the fun.
Su Xiuer came in and saw the old man and the child playing together. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Old Du, the little kid from my family has caught a cold and has a fever. Can you go and take a look at him?"
"What are you looking at? He won't die! Didn't you give him ginger soup? He'll be fine after he gets through it!" Du Buqin rolled his eyes and patted Tianbao's little hand, "Stop pulling. If you keep pulling, Grandpa Du will become bald."
Su Xiu'er pursed her lips and hesitated, "But I saw that the child had a high fever and was confused all the time. He didn't seem to sweat even after drinking the ginger soup..."
"What a family of Bodhisattvas." Du Buqin sighed, put the kid on his neck, and went to the Su family's courtyard.
Even if the cub was really going to pull her bald, he would not put her down to let others hold her.
In the main hall of the Su family, a woman was sitting on a low stool holding a baby, with tears in the corners of her eyes.
Seeing Su Xiuer go to the next door to ask and easily invite someone over, surprise flashed in his eyes again.
Not only did the other party come, he also put the youngest child of the Su family on his neck and coaxed him in a fierce manner as he walked.
Such a relationship is more than just close?
Du Buqin entered the main room, and there was a faint smell of ginger soup in the air.
He didn't even look at the young woman, but just flipped the child's eyelids, then pressed his finger on the corner of the child's lips and stuffed a pill the size of a mung bean into the child's mouth.
"Du, Du Lao, my child..." Little Mrs. Lu bravely forced a smile and wanted to ask about the situation.
"Lack of nutrition, excessive hunger, and illness will come like a mountain." Du Buqin lazily lifted his eyelids, his triangular eyes glaring with mockery and coldness. "Your son caught a cold last night and has been running a fever for over two hours today. The sun was scorching yesterday, and even at night it was too hot to sleep. How could a little kid catch a cold? How long did he stay in the cold water last night? At least an hour, right?"
Xiao Lu's face suddenly turned pale and her smile froze.
The expressions of the Su family ladies who were accompanying them also changed, and their eyes turned cold when they looked at Xiao Lu.
Today's heavy rain started after noon and lasted for two hours in total.
This means that the child was already sick with a fever before being caught in the rain.
To gain their sympathy, the Su family used the little kid to cause trouble, deliberately soaking him in cold water to make him sick?!
Even an animal wouldn't do such a thing!
Old Lady Su had a cold face and spoke in a very calm voice, "Tunnan Mountain is neither far nor near from here. It's almost dark and the rain has stopped long ago. My family, the Little Su, will not keep you here. People from the Big Su family, please go back!"
Xiao Lu's eyelids trembled, and her lips moved as she opened her mouth to speak. However, facing the cold faces of the Xiao Su family, she couldn't utter a word.
The feeling of having your face ripped off in front of you is both embarrassing and awkward.
Too embarrassed to continue facing everyone's gaze, Mrs. Lu held the little baby, whose blush was gradually fading, and walked out of the Su family courtyard quickly with her head lowered, her steps staggering.
After walking a few dozen meters, someone caught up with him and said, "Wait!"
Xiao Lu turned around and recognized the person as Su Xiuer from the Xiao Su family.
The young woman ran up to her, stuffed an oil-paper bag into her arms, and said coldly, "This is the rice cake that Du Lao bought for Tian Bao. There's one piece left. It's not for you, but for the baby. Feed it to him before we get home to fill his stomach."
The young woman gave the things and left. As dusk fell, voices could be heard from the small courtyard, faint, lively and warm.
Little Mrs. Lu tightly grasped the oil-paper bag, lowered her head to look at the baby in her arms with trembling eyelashes, and softly called her mother's child, tears suddenly burst out in torrents.
