When Jiang Huaixu came over, Chen Su was wearing a silver-gray cloak and staring at the Mingyue Bay outside the window in a daze. The footsteps of the two people could not bring him away from his thoughts.
"My Lord and Father, how do you feel now?" Jiang Huaixu asked tentatively.
My own physical condition, outsiders are not clear, how can I not know? Shen Su must have sensed the abnormality of his body, but I don't know what he thinks.
Hearing his daughter's soft voice, Shen Su turned around, lowered his eyes to look at the little person, and slowly smiled, "Dad feels very good, and seems to have a lot more strength."
He squatted down and picked up Jiang Huaixu.
His body suddenly flew into the air, Jiang Huaixu opened his eyes wide instantly, and his body was as stiff as a stone.
Yan Qun was laughing as he watched from the side. Although the former general was still alive, he seemed like a living dead. It was not until he learned that the young lady might still be alive that he became a little more lively. Now that the person has really been found, the former general seems to be coming back to life little by little.
Chen Su just hugged Jiang Huaixu for a moment and then put her back on the ground steadily. If his daughter was still young, he would have held her tightly, but unfortunately, without him knowing, his daughter was already nine years old, so he had to be careful not to get close to her.
"Now Daddy can even hold you in his arms."
"Just in case, let me take your pulse again." Jiang Huaixu said, "Otherwise I won't be at ease."
"good."
The father and daughter sat down facing each other.
After taking Chen Su's pulse and confirming that he was in good health, Jiang Huaixu nodded with satisfaction, "There's nothing serious wrong with you now, but you still have to continue taking the medicinal food. You were too weak before, and you need to recuperate for a while."
Chen Su agreed immediately, then he asked carefully, "Ah Xu, who is your master? He taught you so well. If possible, father would like to prepare some gifts and come to thank him in person."
"My Lord," Jiang Huaixu said hesitantly, "My master has probably gone traveling around."
She told Shen Su the same excuse she had given to others before.
"...I used the medicine she left behind to treat your illness. I didn't expect the effect to be so good."
"I see." Chen Su seemed to be lost in thought. "Your master must be a reclusive master. It's not an exaggeration to say that her medicine can 'revive the dead, turn flesh into bones'."
Jiang Huaixu nodded repeatedly and took out the prepared ointment. "Father, Marquis, this is the ointment for treating burns that I made according to the medical book that my master left me. How about you try it?"
Chen Su didn't say anything more and accepted the ointment.
Jiang Huaixu added, "I'm going out with my sister Qiao'er later. Dad doesn't have to wait for me for dinner. I'll be back as soon as possible."
She had been accompanying Chen Su for meals these past two days. The food at Wangyue Tower even used the best japonica rice. Chen Su's spleen and stomach had just recovered and were still very weak, so he ate very little. Yan Qun didn't dare to say anything or intervene, so he came to her for help, and she would supervise him to make sure he ate a certain amount.
"Okay, Dad will ask someone to heat up the food for you."
Jiang Huaixu smiled brightly, thanked him and walked out of the house.
Watching his daughter leave, the curve of Shen Su's mouth gradually dropped. He played with the porcelain pot in his hand, looking thoughtful.
"General, are you worried about the problem with the young lady's master?" Yan Qun stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"I just find it strange that there really is such a magical medicine in the world that can pull people out of the gates of hell and transform them into a new person..."
Chen Su's voice gradually grew softer, and finally, he suddenly said, "Yan Qun, arrange for Xiao Man and Shuang Jiang to stay with Ah Xu to protect her. Let the news of my improved health spread. The specific details cannot be disclosed."
Outsiders may not know that the Jiang family was very clear about his previous situation. Otherwise, they would not have dared to embezzle his mother's dowry during the year he was recuperating.
He hadn't appeared in public for a long time, and there had been reports that his life was in danger. This time, he wanted to see how angry and frustrated those people were.
"Yes, General."
Yan Qun was about to bow and leave when Chen Su called him again, "Is Ah Xu about to leave?"
Yan Qun paused before saying, "Yes, the young lady said before that she would return to Beichuan County when the general's health improved."
"Prepare a large ship and some gifts. Ah Xu and I will go to Beichuan County together."
"This is not possible..." Yan Qun stopped talking halfway. He slapped his forehead and thought that the general was the same general who could not even be blown by the wind.
He secretly glanced at the general's face. He didn't look like he was going to give a gift, but clearly to snatch his daughter away.
"I'll go down and prepare right away."
Fu Tuan scanned the conversation between the two, but didn't tell Jiang Huaixu. This was a big surprise, and it would not be fun if the host knew it in advance.
On the other side, Jiang Huaixu found Li Qiaoer and explained Shen Su's identity.
Before this, Li Qiao'er had already accepted Chen Su's identity as a general, so she was not too surprised.
"No wonder you said your father was in poor health. It turned out to be an illness he suffered during the war. Your father is really amazing. He can fight and do business at the same time."
Thinking of all the messy and unscrupulous business tricks that Yan Qun had come up with, Jiang Huaixu sighed speechlessly. If Wangyue Tower had not been established in Huaizhou for many years and had already become a fixed place for the upper class, its business would not have been so prosperous.
She picked up Fu Tuan and said, "Let's find a way back."
"Okay." Li Qiao'er nodded, picked up a small bag and said, "I've packed everything you need."
Soon the two of them left Wangyue Tower and headed back to where they worked.
Not long after she walked out, Jiang Huaixu realized something was wrong. She looked at Fu Tuan who was sleeping soundly in her arms, raised her hand and gave it a big paw.
Still didn't wake up the dumpling in my arms.
Fu Tuan has become quite familiar with the Wangyue Tower these past two days. With his cuteness and shiny fur, he has won the favor of Chen Su, Yan Qun and everyone in the Wangyue Tower. Even if Jiang Huaixu doesn't invite him to dinner, there are still many people who feed him delicious food. He rubs here and there, and he feels even better than before.
The consequence is that it has become increasingly lazier in the past two days, either eating or sleeping. Although its appearance has not changed much, Jiang Huaixu feels that it is getting fatter.
"It just knows how to sleep. I shouldn't have brought it here." Jiang Huaixu muttered softly while paying attention to the tail following them.
Li Qiaoer said with a smile: "Futuan has been enjoying himself these past few days, what will he do when he returns?"
Jiang Huaixu didn't answer. He walked to a stall making candy figures and pretended to look at them, but his eyes were fixed on the target in the crowd.
"Ah Xu, do you want to eat a candy man? I'll buy it for you."
Li Qiaoer didn't have a lot of money, but she still had enough money to buy a candy figure for Ah Xu.
Jiang Huaixu pointed at one at random, frowning absentmindedly. How could he suddenly lose it? He had clearly been following them all the way.
Could it be that I am too sensitive?
[Someone helped the host get rid of the tail.] Fu Tuan said lazily.
[The one who is sinking? ]
[How would I know?] After saying this, Fu Tuan fell into a deep sleep again.
After buying the candy figures, Jiang Huaixu and Li Qiaoer walked for a while before finding the way back to the dock where they worked. He was squatting on the side of the road eating a Hu pancake.
