Chapter 346: Blood and Bones



Su Xiaoxiao sat in the main room, counting the boxes left by Old Lady Wei.

He said he was here to see his great-grandson, but how could he really see him buy all the gifts for the whole family?

Gilded wooden knife, from Dahu.

Jadeite, amber and agate, from Erhu.

The little mallet is Xiaohu's.

Jewelry, Su Xiaoxiao.

The four treasures of the study, belong to Su Ergou.

Su Ergou studied at the Imperial College. Although it was not easy to study, calligraphy was a necessity for him.

There was also Su Cheng's, a can of top-quality tea.

Su Cheng loves drinking tea, and no one knows who tipped off Old Lady Wei.

"You?" Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting.

Wei Ting said coldly: "It's not me."

There were some gold ingots used as embellishments in the jewelry. Su Xiaoxiao grabbed a handful and shared them among the three little ones.

Sanxiao only has the habit of hoarding small amounts of money.

They immediately went back to the house, took out their small bag with great effort, put the small gold ingot in it, and then hid it back with great effort!

Su Xiaoxiao wore jewelry all over her head, looking like a fat little peacock covered in golden light.

Then she looked at Wei Ting sympathetically: "Oh, you are the only one who doesn't have it. How pitiful."

Wei Ting: "Oh, childish."

Su Cheng boiled some hot water and took the three little ones to take a bath.

Ever since Su Xiaoxiao couldn't take a bath, the three little ones lost interest in taking a bath. As soon as one was caught in the bath, another one jumped out and they were always uncooperative.

"Er Gou!"

Su Cheng called Su Ergou and used all his strength to finally clean the three little kids.

When they are with Master Lingyun, they play with the master; when they are with the five aunts, it is the aunts who play with them.

The three little ones were exhausted and fell asleep immediately.

Su Xiaoxiao covered the three of them with a quilt.

Wei Ting had also finished taking a shower. He walked over with his long hair loose, and he had a clean scent from a shower.

For a moment, Su Xiaoxiao felt that summer was coming.

Su Xiaoxiao looked him up and down. If she couldn't eat it, she could at least satisfy her eyes with it!

"You're sleeping... here tonight?" she asked.

Wei Ting gave her a cold look: "You wish."

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows: "You came to my room after taking a shower and with your hair disheveled. Your behavior can definitely be defined as seduction!"

Wei Ting sneered: "Really? Then you opened your clothes... are you planning to offer yourself to me?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked down.

Oh my god!

The button was unbuttoned! She quickly buttoned it up.

She was losing weight everywhere except her breasts and butt.

She glared at Wei Ting resentfully: "You got it for free!"

After realizing what she was referring to, Wei Ting's ears turned slightly red and he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Let's get down to business."

He said.

If we don't get down to business, there's a risk of an accidental discharge of a gun.

He told about the conversation in the study.

"An insider." Su Xiaoxiao touched his chin, "He knows you all very well and has a chance to get your grandfather's seal of command... Do you have anyone you suspect?"

Wei Ting said: "Not yet."

"Yes." Wei Ting said, "At least it's still in the capital."

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and said, "Yes, it is most likely that this traitor was the one who poisoned the old marquis!"

Wei Ting agreed: "It's probably him."

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully: "It seems that we need to continue digging deeper into this clue."

"Wei Ting." Su Xiaoxiao said again.

"What's wrong?" Wei Ting asked.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, and finally expressed her doubts: "Today... I met your grandmother and five sisters-in-law. Where is your mother?"

"My mother..." Wei Ting hesitated for a moment and said, "She has never been close to others. Later, my grandfather, father and brothers had problems, so she moved to a separate courtyard west of the mansion, became a vegetarian and chanted Buddhist scriptures, and no longer interacted with anyone. During the holidays, my sisters-in-law and I would go to see her, but she didn't see us every time. The affairs of the mansion have always been taken care of by my grandmother and several sisters-in-law, mainly my eldest sister-in-law."

Su Xiaoxiao was silent for a long time. "It sounds like your mother is a person who doesn't like to fight with the world, but as long as she is human, she will have seven emotions and six desires. Losing her husband and son must have been a big blow to her. Everyone reacts differently after being hit. Some people collapse, some suppress themselves, and some are like my father before... their memories are confused."

Wei Ting looked into the night: "I don't know. When I was a child, I saw other mothers were very close to their children, so I ran to her. I also wanted to be close to her. But the way she looked at me was always full of distance and indifference. As far as I can remember, she has never hugged me."

Su Xiaoxiao really sympathized with Wei Ting now.

Although Ms. Li didn't love her much in her previous life, she still tried hard to play the role of a loving mother and a filial son in front of others.

As a public figure, you cannot lose your image.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Does she treat your other brothers like this?"

Wei Ting recalled: "She wasn't too close to my brothers, but she was the coldest to me. I initially thought she didn't like her son practicing martial arts, so I hid my talent for martial arts. I studied very hard and became the top scorer in high school at the age of 17. I thought I was finally a son she was satisfied with, but in the end, she still just looked at me coldly."

Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide: "Could you have picked it up?"

Wei Ting said calmly: "I hope so, but I am definitely my parents' biological child."

Su Xiaoxiao scratched her ears and said, "Okay."

Wei Ting said: "So sometimes I envy you."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "I envy myself too."

Wei Ting: “…”

Su Xiaoxiao got back to the point: "Your grandmother loves you very much, and you also have five sisters-in-law. Although they are a little overwhelming, they are all sincere to you."

Wei Ting frowned: "Why is my sister-in-law so unbearable?"

Su Xiaoxiao stood up and stepped on the stool with one foot in a domineering manner: "Oh, you had a quarrel, right? You can't say anything bad about your family, right? That's how conflicts between young couples come about!"

Wei Ting: Why do I feel like you are very excited? How much do you want to quarrel with someone?

Of course Wei Ting wouldn't argue with her.

There's no quarrel either.

If they just raised their voices a little bit—

"Daughter! Son-in-law! What's wrong with you?"

That's what it will be.

Su Cheng rushed in holding a butcher knife.

Su Xiaoxiao held her forehead with her hand: "Dad, you came to my room in the middle of the night with a knife. Do you want to chop me or him?"

"Oh, you're talking about that." Su Cheng smiled awkwardly, "I was just chopping the cured pork ribs and forgot to put it down."

Su Xiaoxiao still maintained her bandit-like domineering posture with her feet on the stool, while Wei Ting leaned against the back of the chair like a weak willow, looking like he was being ravaged by her and was unable to resist.

Su Cheng coughed lightly and said, "My daughter, my son-in-law's hand is not healed yet, please take it easy."

Su Xiaoxiao: What’s wrong with me?

He caught the sleeve arrow with his bare hands today, and his hands were obviously in great condition!

"Well, I'll go finish chopping the ribs."

Su Cheng left in a whoosh!

In the last two days, hurry up and migrate and vote for the monthly ticket, otherwise it will be cleared out.
