Chapter 137 I am the rose you raised
Su Junyao knew, of course, that the Gongye family was after Qiuqiu.
Three or four times, their attitude was too obvious.
"I'm more curious about what it is about Qiuqiu that would make the Gongye family go to such lengths."
Chirping's special nature cannot be explained to outsiders. Outsiders just treat it as a joke. It's rare to see someone as serious as Wen Yunbo.
I don't know if Wen Yunbo discovered some incredible truth.
"Are you going to bring Chuchu to the banquet?"
Su Junyao tapped the fan in his palm twice before finally deciding, "Go!"
He'll meet force with force and water with earth. No matter what traps or hidden weapons the Marquis of Wenyun's household might devise, it doesn't matter; he excels at breaking through any predicament!
"Can you leave?" The doctor was annoyed that the two were using his clinic as a study for business. He reached out and pushed them out. "Don't get in the way. Get out of here!"
Su Junyao and Lu Wenzheng, who had been kicked out by the hot-tempered doctor, left with their two children. It was not safe to leave them outside, so they had to take them home.
When it was just the two of them left, Lu Wenzheng suddenly brought up Gongye Changfeng, saying, "There's something wrong with the Gongye family."
“I know.” Su Junyao said arrogantly, as if everything was under his control. “The little fox hasn’t hidden his tail properly yet; he’s too impatient.”
"Do you need help?"
Lu Wenzheng has a cousin who somehow married into the Gongye family. Although she is not from the main branch, her husband's family has influence in the clan, so it is relatively easy for her to inquire about things.
Based on their years of friendship, Su Junyao didn't stand on ceremony with him, saying, "Let's investigate this Gongye Changfeng."
They came out today to investigate the remnants of the previous dynasty, a matter with far-reaching implications. A multitude of other matters piling up at once were particularly troublesome. This incident disrupted their investigation, forcing them to resume their pursuit.
It was the night before Gongye's birthday that the last wave of rebels in the capital were captured and brought to justice.
Chiu Chiu is all better now and is lying at Su Xiucheng's feet, blowing on his feet.
Her chubby cheeks puffed out, and she blew the air she had just inhaled through her mouth toward Su Xiucheng's ankle, which was wrapped up like a pig's trotter.
"Phew~"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~ Pfft!"
Oh no, I accidentally spat out a mouthful of saliva before going there.
Chiu Chiu reached out and wiped Su Xiucheng's leg, trying to destroy the evidence.
Su Xiucheng said, utterly dejected, "Stop struggling. All you're doing now is wiping your saliva around."
Chirp: "..."
Feeling guilty, I need to find something to distract myself.
Su Xiucheng was even more curious about what she could find to distract herself. Before he could come up with a few ideas, Dong Xiao had already brought up everything that Qiu Qiu had prepared.
Eight maids stood in a row, each holding an exquisite dress and matching jewelry.
Su Xiucheng: So, is Chiu Chiu's way of diverting attention a silent way of showing off her wealth?
He doesn't have this many new clothes in a whole year!
[Sigh, so many cute dresses are waiting for my pampering, I'm so busy!]
Dong Xiao glanced at the Fourth Young Master with sympathy. Seeing his pale, weak face mixed with a hint of speechlessness, she knew that the Fourth Young Master would soon be saddened.
Qiuqiu started trying on clothes a few days ago, and she's bothered everyone who had time. Only the Third Young Master and the Fourth Young Master are left.
Let's begin, Fourth Young Master!
Qiuqiu changed into eight different outfits but was still not satisfied, but Su Xiucheng genuinely couldn't see any difference. These outfits were all in the same style; the only differences were the colors, patterns, or embroidered designs.
"I can't tell, I really can't tell."
What terrible things has he done?!
Chiu Chiu glared at Su Xiucheng, her chubby little hands constantly scratching at her brother's face. "I'm the rose you've nurtured with such care, how can you bear to let me be looked down upon!"
Fourth Brother, loving someone is like tending a flower!
Su Xiucheng felt that he had been threatened by Qiuqiu for no reason.
Okay, okay, so this is how everyone plays, right?
Little Rose, right?
Let's begin!
Su Xiucheng beckoned Dong Xiao closer, and no one knew what they were whispering about, but Dong Xiao laughed with a very malicious smile after hearing it.
【Huh? You guys are having a little secret behind my back?】
Chiu Chiu hurriedly crawled over; she wanted to hear too!
As soon as she leaned closer, Dong Xiao straightened up and stepped aside. "Fourth Young Master, this servant will go and prepare now."
"Hurry up, don't delay Chiu Chiu's dressing time."
Upon hearing that it was actually for her own good, Qiuqiu immediately stopped causing trouble, sat down next to her fourth brother, and waved to Dongxiao, signaling her to hurry up.
[Excited, waiting anxiously!]
Looking at the silly little chirp, Dongxiao inexplicably began to feel sorry for her little master.
Hopefully, she'll bring back a smile just as bright as that!
After Dong Xiao left, Su Xiucheng began to carefully select clothes for Qiu Qiu.
"So delicate and pink, how old is Chiu Chiu this year!"
Chiu Chiu scratched her head: 【I'm nine months and twenty days old, can't I wear it?】
Su Xiucheng sighed: "It doesn't suit Qiuqiu; it makes her look immature. Change her!"
Chirp blinked, and before she could even begin to think, the maid holding the pink dress left.
It's okay, there are still seven left.
Su Xiucheng shook his head: "Blue makes you look darker, purple is tacky, neither will do!"
"Who chose yellow? Chuchu looks like a banana in it, no way!"
"Golden color is no good, it'll look like a fried egg!"
"..."
Under Su Xiucheng's pickiness, the skirts became less and less, and Qiuqiu gradually figured out what was going on.
Does she have no clothes to wear?
"ah!"
【stop!】
Put down your little skirt, let me do it!
What could Qiuqiu have done wrong? She just wanted to give each dress a home!
[Brother, brother, please spare her skirt!]
Qiuqiu quickly rushed over and covered her fourth brother's mouth, afraid that he would order the last maid to leave.
When she showed her little dress to her parents and second brother, they praised it as if it were a flower. Now, after being criticized by her fourth brother, the little girl has lost all confidence.
Su Xiucheng patted her head and pointed to the last dress: "Fourth Brother has picked out the most suitable battle robe for you, I guarantee you will be the most beautiful little rose!"
Chiu Chiu's eyes lit up as if they were glowing, and she warmly grasped Su Xiucheng's hand. "Eh?"
Really?!
Su Xiucheng declared that it was a rose, absolutely a rose!
"Go change into your dress. I've already asked Dongxiao to prepare the props for you. Do you know the saying 'clothes make the man'? Tomorrow, you'll stun the entire audience!"
Encouraged, Chiu Chiu clenched her little fists, her heart pounding with excitement, and actually went to change into the last dress.
The bright red clothes she wore looked like a red envelope cover.
Chuchu tugged at her clothes, a little doubtful, "This...is it really that good-looking?"
Just then, Dong Xiao came in, carrying a bouquet of blooming peonies.
Su Xiucheng simply tucked the flower behind Qiuqiu's ear. The red dress and red flower made Qiuqiu's little face look pale; she wasn't ugly, just a little funny.
"Very good, as beautiful as a flower."
Chiu Chiu cupped her little face, feeling that something was wrong.
"If you don't believe me, go show it to your parents. Chirp, you need to improve your aesthetic sense!"
Chiu Chiu hesitated, but decided to consult several people's opinions. Fourth Brother had spent so much time choosing for her; it hadn't been easy!
Show this to Dad!
Dongxiao carried Qiuqiu back home. She tried to suppress her laughter the whole way. The Fourth Young Master was so naughty.
She was struggling to suppress her laughter, trembling uncontrollably. Chirp chirped along with her, swaying back and forth.
The master and servant happened to run into Su Junyao, who had just returned.
Su Junyao loosened his grip, scattering the pastries he had brought back all over the floor without even bothering to clean them up. His eyes widened in shock: "There are still baby matchmakers nowadays?"
