After Su Ergou went to school, Su Xiaoxiao took out three small school bags that she had sewn herself from the house and hung them on the shoulders of the three people one by one.

There were no books in the bag, only a box of snacks, a bottle of water and a sweat towel she had cut herself.

Today is also the day when the three little ones become apprentices and learn skills.

"Dad, we're going to go out first. You don't have to lock the door later. I'll be back soon."

Su Cheng thought, of course I don’t lock the door, I’m not going out——

As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, Qin Canglan appeared at the door.

Coming with him was the old marquis who was pushed in a wheelchair by him.

"Huh?"

Su Cheng looked at Qin Canglan, then at Su Yuan's father, and was a little confused as to how these two got together.

He scratched his head: "Well, you guys——"

Before he could finish his question, the old marquis stood up from his wheelchair, and came to Su Cheng with Qin Canglan, and each of them held up one of Su Cheng's arms.

Su Cheng glared: "What are you doing?"

The two men dragged him into the carriage.

The old marquis sat back in his wheelchair.

He glanced at the empty yard, walked over to take the lunch box from the table, and sat back in the wheelchair.

The snacks that Su Xiaoxiao prepared for Su Cheng finally came in handy—

…

Su Xiaoxiao led the three children to the house at the east end.

Boom boom boom.

Su Xiaoxiao knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was Deng An.

Ling Yun is here too.

I don't know if he just woke up or hadn't slept all night. His long hair was disheveled and he looked a little sick.

But he was not really sick, he just didn't eat well for many years, so he was very weak.

"Su, Mrs. Su!" Deng An was surprised.

The name Madam Su is actually a misunderstanding.

Deng An asked Da Hu what his name was, and Da Hu said Da Hu. Then he asked what his surname was? His full name.

Dahu thought for a moment and said, "Su Dahu."

This is indeed how Su Cheng named the three little ones.

One is called Su Dahu, one is called Su Erhu, and one is called Su Xiaohu.

It’s just that, on weekdays, everyone calls Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu, and everyone seems to have ignored the last name, only Dahu remembers it.

Deng An thought that Su Xiaoxiao's husband's surname was Su.

"Mrs. Su?" Su Xiaoxiao was more surprised than Deng An.

Deng An said, "Isn't this name... wrong? Your husband's surname is Su, so if I don't call you Madam Su, what should I call you?"

Su Xiaoxiao said, "My husband's surname is Wei."

Deng An: “…”

Su Xiaoxiao explained her purpose to Ling Yun.

"It's okay if you accept one. Da Hu and Er Hu are also very qualified."

Ling Yun looked at the three little kids standing in a row with school bags on their backs, and his expression was indescribable.

He was about to refuse.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a large box of freshly baked snacks: "Freshly made jujube kernel cake and egg custard soufflé."

Looking at the snacks that were moist but not oily, fragrant but not greasy, Ling Yun's tongue was tied and he swallowed the words of refusal along with his saliva.

Ling Yun, who swore never to accept disciples again in his life, eventually sold out his moral integrity for two boxes of snacks.

When Master Zhang came out after washing up, he found that Ling Yun had three more closed disciples.

Because of Wei Ting's commotion, Qin Yanran was also delayed. She arrived at Lihua Lane half an hour later than usual.

After confirming that everything was ready, Su Xiaoxiao prepared to go home.

The two met at the door.

The last time they met was at the Mansion of Marquis Zhenbei. At that time, Qin Yanran was the daughter of the high and mighty Duke Huguo, calling the old marquis grandpa, while Su Xiaoxiao was just an apprentice of a doctor invited from the common people.

The identities of the two are very different.

But who could have expected that in just half a month, the chubby little female doctor would take away everything that belonged to her and replace her as the eldest daughter of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.

Qin Yanran's expression was extremely complicated.

Su Xiaoxiao's reaction was much calmer.

She glanced at Qin Yanran, without any emotion in her eyes, as if Qin Yanran was nothing to her.

In fact, this is true.

Compared to being confronted, being ignored is the most unacceptable thing.

Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at Qin Yanran: "What's the matter?"

Qin Yanran opened her mouth: "You..."

She was speechless for a moment.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Want to ask about the old marquis's condition?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Qin Yanran's face.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes dimmed a little: "It seems not."

Then there's nothing to say.

She and Qin Yanran are not familiar with each other.

Was she going to have a fake recognition? She didn't even recognize Qin Canglan, so how could she recognize Qin Yanran, who had nothing to do with her? Qin Yanran saw her turn around and leave. She had never been ignored like this before, and suddenly she felt wronged.

"It's not my fault!"

She was born and raised in the Qin family. She was raised as Qin Canglan's granddaughter since she was a child. She knew nothing about the grievances of the previous generation.

Never framed anyone.

Why does this rich young lady give her a cold shoulder as soon as she comes back?

The more Qin Yanran spoke, the more she felt that she was wronged for all the injustice she had endured. "We have already moved out of the original courtyard and moved into the remote and cold West Mansion. I have to face the pointing and criticizing of the servants all day long... Do you know how those people have been criticizing us behind our backs?"

"Why should I know?" Su Xiaoxiao interrupted her calmly, "Whether you are doing well or not, what does it have to do with me?"

Qin Yanran choked: "You——"

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly: "Don't say you are innocent. I have no obligation to sympathize with you, and it is impossible for me to sympathize with you."

She felt wronged just because she moved into Xifu? Her father ate tree bark, Guanyin soil, slept in a cowshed, and worked hard for others at a young age. Who would feel sorry for his grievances?

Ergou grew up hungry and is very satisfied as long as he has food to eat.

"You took advantage of me so much, yet you still have the nerve to cry and complain in front of me. Who gave you the face to do that?"

Qin Yanran was dumbfounded! The daughters of the capital spoke in a roundabout way, and if they didn't add seventeen or eighteen layers of meaning, it seemed that they were not well-educated enough.

Su Xiaoxiao's straightforwardness is like a sharp knife, cutting through all hypocrisy.

Qin Yanran had never seen such a scene before. She couldn't find her voice for a long time.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, "You keep saying it's not your fault, so why are you running in front of me now to seek a sense of existence? Are you trying to tell me that I 'accidentally' hurt an innocent girl like you, and I should feel guilty? Shouldn't I have peace? Why don't you go to heaven?"

The daughter of a rich girl in the capital city cherishes her reputation very much. She is so aggressive. Isn't she afraid that her reputation will be bad if it gets out? Or is she from the countryside and only knows such vulgar words? Qin Yanran's face was pale: "You...you can't talk to me like this...I'm your aunt!"

That’s right, even if she wasn’t the eldest daughter of the Duke of the Guardian’s Mansion, she was at least a step ahead of her in terms of seniority! “Mom!”

The three little ones heard Su Xiaoxiao's voice and came out to look for her again.

Su Xiaoxiao touched the heads of the three people and said, "Aren't you in class? Why did you run out?"

Da Hu said, "I miss my mother."

Erhu said, "Erhu wants to, too."

Xiaohu said: "Xiaofu misses you the most!"

Su Xiaoxiao burst out laughing.

Qin Yanran looked at Su Xiaoxiao in a daze.

Su Xiaoxiao no longer had the coldness she had towards herself; her eyes were filled with pure tenderness as she looked at the three children.

Wait, these little guys are her sons?

They were also in there—having a class? Zhang the zither teacher came out.

Seeing the three little kids, he felt relieved: "You guys, don't run around, understand?"

"Teacher." Qin Yanran performed the student's greeting politely.

Zhang Qinshi nodded: "Yanran is here."

Qin Yanran asked, "Master Zhang Qin, have you accepted a few children as your apprentices? Didn't you say that you don't accept apprentices casually?"

Master Zhang Qin attached great importance to qualifications when accepting disciples. Many children from powerful and influential families wanted to become his disciples, but he rejected them all.

And he doesn't accept novices, the required foundation must be at least a few years.

"Ah, I didn't collect it." said Master Zhang.

Qin Yanran breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

Zhang Qinshi looked at a certain loser in the corridor and said angrily but not complainingly, "That guy took it."

Qin Yanran said, "It's Senior Brother."

"Senior brother?" Master Zhang Qin frowned, glanced at Qin Yanran, and said, "He is not your senior brother."

Qin Yanran was stunned.

Master Zhang said, "He is my master."

Qin Yanran couldn't believe it. She stammered for a while and looked at the three little ones: "Then they——"

Zhang Qinshi said, "They are my junior brothers, and also your three junior uncles."

He, they are her junior uncles, and their mother’s generation... isn’t that the same as her great-grandmaster?

She...she became that girl's granddaughter?! (End of this chapter)
