There is nothing wrong with Su Ergou's logic.
However, Wei Ting recognized this medicine at a glance and it was indeed used by the palace.
"Who gave it to you?" he asked.
"I can't say it." Su Ergou blinked, "But I can gesture!"
He gestured in a fanciful way.
"Do you understand, brother-in-law?"
Wei Ting: “…”
In the backyard, Su Xiaoxiao called out, "Ergou! Come over and help!"
"Here I come, sister!" Su Ergou went there quickly.
Wei Ting took the medicine back to the east room.
A man in black flashed in like a ghost.
He looked depressed, as if he had been beaten seventeen or eighteen times.
Wei Ting frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
He touched the butt.
Wei Ting: "Your ass...isn't pure again?"
Yuchi Xiu said woodenly, "No, this time it's not my butt, it's my breasts. Don't ask, I don't want to tell."
Wei Ting: I didn’t want to ask.
Wei Ting asked, "Then why are you touching my butt?"
Yuchi Xiu said aggrievedly: "My butt is on fire, it hurts."
Wei Ting looked at him with an indescribable look, "Are you sure it hurts because of inflammation?"
Yuchi Xiu saw the medicine bottle in Wei Ting's hand and asked, "Sir, what are you holding?"
Wei Ting threw the medicine bottle to him.
He took it and looked at it: "Oh, the white jade cream from the palace, do you want to use it, sir? No, I'll use it to wipe my butt."
My butt really hurts!
It's all that woman's fault! She really...really went too far! Yuchi Xiu was so angry that he pulled out the cork from the bottle!
Like pulling that woman's head off! Wait.
The smell is wrong.
"Sir!" He sniffed the white jade paste, "Where did you come from?"
Wei Ting said: "Ergou gave it to me."
Yuchi Xiu gasped, "He actually poisoned the adults! No, he is just a young boy, how could he know how to poison?"
Wei Ting's eyes turned cold and he said, "You are really good at giving people nicknames."
Yuchi Xiu's expression became serious: "I know! It must be that girl! She wants to kill you!"
Wei Ting said coldly: "If you don't need your brain, I'll chop it off for you?"
Yuchi Xiu took a step back and held his head: "Sir, it's not good to be too cruel."
Wei Ting snorted.
Yuchi Xiu couldn't figure out what he had done to make the master angry. The master's temper had been becoming more and more unpredictable lately.
Wei Ting looked at the white jade cream on the table, and his expression gradually grew colder.
"Sister, let me tell you something." Su Ergou said.
"What's the matter?" Su Xiaoxiao continued chopping wood.
As Su Ergou was tying up the firewood his sister had prepared, he said, "Well, Changping said that Master Xiang had a cough at night, and asked me if I had any snacks to relieve the cough."
Su Xiaoxiao chopped off a piece of wood and said, "If you have a cough, can't you just take some medicine?"
Su Ergou said, "Changping said that Master Xiang has been taking medicine for so long that he feels like vomiting when he smells the medicine."
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "You agreed?"
Su Ergou muttered, "I said I'll ask for him."
Su Xiaoxiao put down the machete: "Okay, I'll go stew some loquat and snow pear paste."
Yuchi Xiu realized it belatedly and said, "It was Xiao Chonghua, the cunning one!"
Wei Ting tapped the table lightly with his fingertips.
When the adults in his family did this, they were plotting against someone.
Yuchi Xiu's eyes glowed with excitement: "Sir! Are you going to assassinate Xiao Chonghua?! Sir! I can do it!"
Wei Ting said: "Besides killing, can't you think of something else?"
Yuchi Xiu spread his hands: "But I am a killer."
After a pause, his eyes lit up again.
"I know! Poison Xiao Chonghua! Put it in that girl's pear cream! Give Xiao Chonghua a taste of his own medicine!"
…
As evening approached, dusk began to set in the west.
Su Yuan came out of Doctor Fu's house and got on the carriage regretfully.
The driver asked, "Sir, does Madam Fu disagree?"
Su Yuan pinched his painful brow helplessly: "Forget it, let's go back."
The driver said, "Sir, you don't look well. How about I find you an inn first, so you can settle down and return to the city tomorrow morning."
"No." Su Yuan said, "Go back tonight."
"Yes." The coachman waved the whip and slowly drove the carriage out of Chunliu Lane.
"Zhang Dao, you bastard! You still have the guts to come back! Damn it! I've been blocking your house for a month! Let's see where you can run this time!"
Su Yuan hadn't slept for several nights, and the car was so stuffy that he felt a little breathless. But as soon as he pushed the window open, he saw people fighting in the alley.
"You bastard! I'm going to beat you to death!"
Su Yuan was about to step forward to stop them, but he heard the man who was beating him say, "You're looking for someone to bully my daughter! I think you're tired of living! Come at me if you're brave! I respect you as a man! Are you still a man if you have such bad intentions towards my daughter?"
"Master?" the driver asked him.
"Forget it, let's go." Su Yuan lowered the car window and passed by Su Cheng who was beating up Zhang Dao. ——The old Su family has not been very lucky recently. First, there was an incident of framing the young Su family. Although Su Erlang took the blame, his reputation was affected after all.
In addition, Su Dalang was blackmailed for another 500 taels, and framed Su Xiaoxiao and lost 100 taels. The Su family suffered financial losses one after another and lost all their money.
Su Can said, "Dad, Erlang and I went to the government office to inquire. Yu Niang and Zheng Yuanbo have divorced, and her household registration has returned to our Su family. If she wants to start her own family, she has to move her household registration out! Without the consent of our Su family, she can't move!"
The implication is that they can take the opportunity to blackmail Su Yu Niang.
In the past, they didn't know that Su Yu Niang was so rich. Every time Su Yu Niang took ten or twenty taels of silver from her parents' home, they felt that it was not easy for her.
The next moment I thought, Su Yu Niang was sending away a beggar!
"Will elder sister give it to you?" Su Erlang asked.
Su Can snorted, "She belongs to the old Su family, and what belongs to her belongs to the old Su family! She has to give it to her whether she wants to or not!"
"Give what?"
Su Yu Niang walked in slowly.
Su Can was stunned.
He looked at Su Yuniang, and then looked behind her. He didn't see Su Pangya holding the butcher knife, so he became more confident: "Oh, you still have the nerve to come back!"
Su Yu Niang laughed sarcastically: "Didn't Dad say that? I am from the old Su family, of course I can come back."
Su Can didn't expect that what he just said was heard by Su Yu Niang, which was very embarrassing.
He coughed lightly and asked in a timid tone, "Aren't you living well at Xiao Su's house? Why did you come back?"
Su Yu Niang said, "I came back to get my household registration. I want to start my own business, so I need the old Su family to sign and seal to allow me to transfer my household registration."
She exposed her weaknesses so openly that the Su family was caught off guard.
Su Yu Niang said, "Let's not beat around the bush. We are all blood relatives, and I don't want to make things too awkward. If you want money, I can give it to you, just don't ask for too much. Mother and my third brother are still at home, and even for them, I won't be stingy with my little belongings. But I have a condition!"
Mr. Su spoke: "You say."
Su Yu Niang said seriously, "I want to know where the jade pendant that our Su family sold thirty years ago came from!"
