"I can't trust anyone else, so I can only ask you for help. Also, this is my family's secret recipe, remember to keep it a secret for me."

"Don't worry, I will."

Shen Chuan collected some strange medicines.

"As a reward, these cakes are for you." Su Xiaoxiao took out fifty wife cakes wrapped in bamboo leaves from her backpack.

"This, this much?" Shen Chuan was stunned, "I can't finish it!"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "If you can't finish it, you can give it to your classmates to try. It is also necessary to build a good relationship with your classmates."

In fact, it was originally intended to be given to the students of the academy for tasting, but now is a good opportunity to do a favor, so why not go with the flow?

In her previous life, she had always disliked her mother's overly smooth business style. But when she changed from a wealthy eldest daughter to a hungry country girl, she realized that being a person who does not flatter others... requires capital.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "The academy is too far away, I may not come to the academy to set up a stall in the future."

"Ah..." Shen Chuan was disappointed.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "However, if anyone wants to eat it, they can make a reservation in advance. As long as there are ten, I will deliver it to you for free."

"Besides, we are friends now. For your sake, I will only charge nine cents per person for reservations made by the academy."

Wow, I don't have to go out to get biscuits delivered, and it's a penny cheaper. It's really a good deal! Shen Chuan agreed immediately: "I'll go tell them right away!"

"Don't forget the wife cake!" Su Xiaoxiao reminded.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes!" Shen Chuan turned back with a smile, picked up a pile of pancakes, and went away at a brisk pace.

Su Xiaoxiao went to the main entrance of the academy.

Seeing her coming out, the servant who had been stopping her was stunned.

"sister!"

Su Ergou trotted over and asked, "Have you seen Shen Chuan?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "I saw it, and I gave him the cake."

"Then we can go back." Su Ergou said.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No hurry, let's go somewhere first."

The three-day deadline agreed with the doctor has arrived, and she has to go to the doctor's house to pick up the ordered silver needles and medicinal materials.

"Do you know Chunliu Lane?" she asked Su Ergou.

"I know. It's not far from the market. From here to Chunliu Lane, it's about... three or four miles?" Su Ergou was not sensitive to numbers. Seven or eight miles was just a rough estimate he made.

In fact, they walked more than six miles.

Su Xiaoxiao walked with her fat little body, sweating profusely.

I have done enough exercise today...

Chunliu Lane is an old lane with many cracks on the bluestone floor and green moss growing in the cracks.

The two walked carefully and finally came to the door of a house with a wooden sign with the surname Fu.

"Knock on the door." Su Xiaoxiao said.

“Hey!”

Su Ergou was happy to be ordered around by his fat sister, and he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Is anyone there?"

He shouted.

After a while, the door was slowly opened from the inside.

"Who is it?"

An old voice asked impatiently.

"Huh?"

Su Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at her in surprise.

She also saw Su Xiaoxiao, and her eyebrows jumped: "No pickled mustard greens today!"

That’s right, the woman who opened the door for them was the old woman who sold dried goods at the market.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh, the town is so small... She met two "acquaintances" in one day.

"Wait, how do you know my home?" the old woman asked with a frown.

Su Xiaoxiao looked up at the house number on the wall and it was definitely a family with the surname Fu.

"Excuse me, is Doctor Fu here?" she asked.

"Mom! Is there anyone here to see the doctor?"

Doctor Fu came quickly over with a pestle in his hand. He had just been pounding medicine in the backyard.

"Doctor Fu." Su Xiaoxiao greeted him.

"It's Miss Su." Doctor Fu's eyes flickered, and he said to his mother, "Mom, it's windy outside, please go inside and rest first, I will receive you."

The old woman pointed at Su Xiaoxiao and said to her son, "She came to you for treatment, you have to charge her double the consultation fee!"

Doctor Fu: “…”

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

After the old lady entered the house, Doctor Fu took Su Xiaoxiao aside and said, "My mother doesn't know that I paid you to buy medicine for wounds, so don't let it slip. I have prepared the silver needles and medicinal materials. Please wait a moment, I will give them to you right away." - While waiting for the medicine, Su Xiaoxiao took a look at the Fu family's medicine cabinet. The medicines in it might not be very expensive, but there was not a single defective one. This shows that Doctor Fu was very strict in controlling the medicinal materials.

We will never sell inferior products as good ones.

...The pickled mustard greens the old woman sold her were of excellent quality.

"Miss Su, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Doctor Fu handed a bundle to Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Please check it."

Su Xiaoxiao counted the medicinal herbs and did not miss any one.

She paused, then suddenly said, "Here are some prescriptions for treating difficult and complicated diseases. Do you want to learn them?"

Doctor Fu's eyes sparkled, as if he had thought of something. He said seriously, "Do you want to buy more medicine for wounds?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled: "No need, I'll give it to you directly."

Doctor Fu: Why do I feel like you are up to no good...

Soon, Doctor Fu understood that there is no such thing as a free prescription, and that it comes at a price. --In Xinghua Village, in the vegetable garden of Old Li's home, Qian was teaching people how to farm.

The one who taught him was none other than Su Cheng, the bully of the Su family.

Qian said that she would never owe anyone anything.

She swore in her heart that she would never teach Su Pangya how to farm.

The one who came is Su Cheng, not Su Pangya, he can teach.

Well, it’s definitely not that she is taking advantage of others.

"This is green onion, this is chives, this is leeks, and this is the garlic sprouts you eat every day. The leaves of garlic sprouts are flat, and green onions are round."

Su Cheng looked at the green scene with a confused look on his face.

What are you doing? Aren’t they all green? “Pick some chives for me,” Qian said.

Su Cheng decisively plucked a handful of leeks.

Qian: “…”

The villagers who were watching the fun on the ridge of the field were almost laughing to death.

Su Cheng was the big bully in the village. He used to be arrogant and domineering. When had he ever made such a fool of himself? Su Cheng was so depressed that he was half dead, but he couldn't get angry - the fat girl asked him to learn, so he had to learn well.

Of course, he didn't come here alone to embarrass himself, he also brought someone with him.

"Son-in-law, come here!" he said to Wei Ting who was sitting on the edge of the field.

Wei Ting pointed to his injured leg with his crutch: "Dad, my legs are not convenient for me."

Su Cheng rarely gave his son-in-law face: "You just can't do it, right?"

Wei Ting: “…”

The cost of calling me dad is a bit high.

More and more villagers gathered around, some came to see the father-in-law and son-in-law make a fool of themselves, while others came simply to admire Wei Ting's good looks.

There is no other young man as handsome as him in the whole area.

Someone also noticed Wei Ting in the Su family's vegetable garden.

"Mom, who is that person?"

Su Jinniang asked.

Fang took a look and said to her daughter, "The son-in-law from the Su family!"

Su Jinniang lowered her eyes and whispered, "He looks... really handsome."
