Chapter 372 My elder sister has a magnanimous heart; she will surely bestow her favors equally upon all.
Xiao Su Bao looked at Su Ruan Ruan, wanting to say something, but the words stuck in her throat.
"Sister Ruan'er, please promise Su Bao that you won't give this dagger to anyone else, okay?"
Su Yun and Fu Manduo exchanged a glance, then looked at Su Ruanruan, and both became nervous.
"Cousin, just listen to Xiao Su Bao, you can't go wrong!" Su Yun said solemnly to her cousin.
Fu Manduo nodded in agreement: "Our best friend is a fairy, cousin Su, don't take it lightly!"
Su Ruanruan paused, seemingly lost in thought.
She looked at the three girls, then lowered her voice and said, "Have you also heard that I will face a calamity this year?"
Fu Manduo and Su Yun had no idea that Xiao Su Bao only saw that Su Ruan Ruan was in danger, but did not know when it would happen.
Actually, the little dumpling was also a bit confused. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't be able to foresee much danger from people she didn't know well.
But Su Ruanruan is different...
The little girl pursed her lips and couldn't help but glance at Su Ruanruan again.
Seeing that the three little girls were not talking, Su Ruanruan simply held Xiao Subao in one arm and pulled Fu Manduo with the other to talk about her own things.
Little Su Bao was so engrossed in listening that she forgot Su Ruanruan had pinched her hand and taken advantage of her...
"The reason I came to see my second uncle is because I'm about to be in trouble..."
While squeezing Xiao Su Bao's and Fu Man Duo's hands, Su Ruan Ruan began to talk about her own affairs.
"Three months ago, a monk came to our house. As soon as the old monk saw me, he said that I was destined for a great calamity. If I couldn't overcome it, I would die. If I could, I would have a bright future ahead..."
Su Ruanruan didn't believe it, but her parents did, and they insisted on asking the monk.
Speaking of which, that monk was quite something; he told her to head south.
It is said that her fate will change in the south, but the monk also said that if she can meet a benefactor, she will be able to turn bad luck into good.
If I don't meet him, I'll be completely finished before the end of this year...
After Su Ruanruan finished speaking, the three girls fell silent.
Fu Man looked at Su Ruanruan with sympathy. Come to think of it, his own luck wasn't good either. If it weren't for meeting Xiao Su Bao...
Yes, Little Crispy Baby!
Fu Manduo suddenly looked at the little Su Ruanruan who was petting the baby.
"I understand! Your lucky star is your good friend. She can definitely save you!" Fu Manduo's eyes lit up as he excitedly said.
Su Ruanruan watched the little girl's reactions shift from sympathy to agitation, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Although Su Yun wasn't as excited, she thought about how she had previously escaped danger and turned good luck around, which seemed to be thanks to Xiao Su Bao!
"Yes, Manbao is right. Don't run around these days. I'll write to Daddy and we'll all live in Tangjia Village from now on!"
Su Yun looked at Su Ruanruan and said firmly.
Su Ruanruan...
How could a four or five-year-old girl have such power?
She felt that these people were overthinking things, but since she was already here, she still wanted to explore the area.
"Alright, alright, you're all so good-looking, I'll listen to you!" Su Ruanruan said happily, her face full of doting affection.
Su Yun's lips twitched; she really couldn't do anything about this cousin.
"That's just my cousin's personality, don't take it to heart!" Su Yun sighed and looked at Xiao Su Bao's face again.
Seeing that Xiao Su Bao wasn't angry, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that Fu Manduo has spent more time with Su Ruanruan, he finds this older sister quite interesting.
"It's alright. My cousin Su's personality is much better than those young ladies from wealthy families. Those people are always so hypocritical!" Fu Manduo pouted and snorted.
Su Ruanruan, who was standing to the side, immediately brightened up and nodded quickly.
"That's right, a bunch of hypocritical women, ugly and troublesome, how can they be as cute as you? Don't worry, I will definitely spoil you!" Su Ruanruan said, winking at the group.
She was already beautiful, but in that blink, she gained an extra touch of allure.
"Cousin, you're a girl, can we not be so frivolous!" Su Yun couldn't help but mutter.
Su Ruanruan raised an eyebrow, reached out and pinched her chin, then said, "What's wrong, cousin? Are you jealous? Don't worry, I'm a magnanimous older sister, I'll definitely treat everyone equally!"
Little Su Bao was immediately amused by the older sister, her eyes crinkling with laughter, finding this gentle older sister quite amusing.
When Su Ruanruan saw the little girl smile, her eyes lit up, and she reached out with her other hand to pinch the girl's cheek: "Oh my, this little face is so cute!"
Su Yun...
What kind of inappropriate and lewd words are these!
Besides, she likes boys and has no interest in girls.
Su Yun slapped away her mischievous hands and said irritably, "Let me add one more thing: you're not allowed to flirt with girls anymore, or I'll... tell your aunt and have her come over!"
"Um... are you sure you want my mother to come over?" Su Ruanruan asked Su Yun with a strange expression.
Su Yun paused, then fell silent as she thought of her aunt's enthusiasm.
Xiao Su Bao pursed her lips and looked at the group of people, a hint of a smile in her eyes.
This gentle lady seems different from the others.
"Well, never mind then!" Su Yun sighed, having no choice but to back down.
Who told that my aunt was even more... fierce than my cousin!
While the girls were talking, it was already noon.
Su Ruanruan rubbed her stomach and couldn't help but say, "I'm starving. Should we stop and eat something?"
Little Su Bao was listless, but her eyes lit up instantly when she heard about food.
She was also a little hungry.
"Outside, we're hungry!" Su Ruanruan called out to the outside.
Ling Buqi's lips twitched slightly, and he let out a soft hum.
That Su Ruanruan is really annoying, but oh well, their little general must be hungry too!
Thinking to himself, Ling Buqi said, "Little General, please wait a moment, I'll go and call someone to cook!"
"Okay, Brother Ling!"
Sure enough, look at her, her own little general is much better than that Su Ruanruan who's more manly than your man.
Thinking to himself, Ling Buqi called out to the general in front of him, "Young master, it's almost time. Shall we eat first?"
Tang Bugui glanced at the sky and rubbed his stomach.
"good!"
Even if I could tolerate it, my daughter couldn't.
They had two carriages and more than twenty people this time, so packing them up wasn't too slow.
There were tea stalls and vendors selling fruits and other food along the roadside.
However, there are many of them, so the food here is not enough.
As the little ones got off the carriage, Su Ruanruan stretched, her eyes filled with curiosity.
I used to spend most of my time in the border regions, where I saw mostly deserts and grasslands.
Looking at the surrounding woods now, I find them quite interesting.
Suddenly a rabbit ran past her, and her eyes lit up.
"Wait a minute, I'll catch a rabbit for you to eat!" Su Ruanruan's eyes lit up as she shouted to Xiao Subao and the others.
Helpless, Su Yun could only say, "Don't go too far, Uncle Wang, Brother Sun, please both of you follow her. Don't let anything happen to my cousin!"
"Yes, Miss!" The two guards quickly responded and chased after her.
Ling Buqi casually picked up a stone and shot it into the haystack.
"It's just hunting rabbits, no big deal!" Ling Buqi finished hunting the rabbit and casually glanced at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan raised an eyebrow; she realized she had been provoked!
She chuckled and then picked up her bow and arrows from the side.
"Hunting rabbits is nothing, I'm going to hunt a wild boar for my little darlings to have a treat!"
After Su Ruanruan finished speaking, she turned and left, her eyes still shining.
Ling Buqi paused, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.
The two members of the Su family are quite skilled in martial arts, and Su Ruanruan is also very capable. They should be fine!
Seeing the two of them like this, Tang Bugui rubbed his chin and said, "You should go and take a look too, don't let anything happen to Miss Su!"
Ling Buqi was taken aback and was about to object, but seeing his general's expression, he resigned himself and left.
Little Su Bao looked at Brother Ling and Sister Su and was slightly taken aback.
Tang Bugui skillfully picked up his daughter and walked towards the herbal tea stall next to him.
There's shade here, so it's not as hot as outside.
When the vendors saw that customers were coming, their previously listless appearance instantly perked up.
"What kind of tea would you like, sir? We have herbal tea, sweetened water, and plain water..."
"One pot each, please!" Tang Bugui said to the vendor.
Several vendors selling fruits and vegetables nearby also gathered around.
"Grandpa, would you like to buy some fruit? We also have berries that we grow ourselves, they're really sweet!"
Tang Bugui looked at Xiao Subao and the other children, whose eyes were fixed on the fruit sold at the stall.
So he asked, "How much?"
"It's not expensive, only one coin a bowl!" the old woman said somewhat nervously.
"Give me this whole basket, how much is it in total?" Tang Bugui said, looking at the small basket in front of the old woman.
The old woman was taken aback for a moment, then her face lit up with joy: "Ten coins for a basket will do!"
She's been here for almost half a day already, and if the fruit doesn't sell soon, it'll go bad.
Now things are much better; finally, someone has bought it.
Tang Bugui gave her ten coins, then gave her ten more: "Give us this basket too!"
"Okay, okay!" The old woman was overjoyed. That was a full twenty coins! Even a man carrying heavy loads might not earn that much.
Several other food vendors also gathered around, and since Tang Bugui's group was large, they simply bought everything from those vendors.
Little Su Bao couldn't help but drool when she saw the basket of apricots.
Tang Bugui looked at the little dumpling who was practically drooling, and a smile crept onto his lips. He said with a smile, "Eat whatever you want!"
Little Su Bao's eyes lit up, and even the tuft of hair on her head shook excitedly.
Her mother used to love eating apricots, but she only found out about this secretly from the servants.
But she had never eaten apricots since she was a child. There were no apricots in the capital, and they were transported from various places to the capital every year when they were in season.
Little Su Bao has no money, so naturally she can't afford it.
The Lan family does have one, but it's not her turn.
I imagine apricots must taste really good!
She picked up a yellow apricot and took a small bite.
It tastes sweet and sour, it's really delicious!
As Xiao Su Bao ate, she thought of her mother. If her mother were still alive, she could eat apricots with her.
Tang Bugui had been watching his daughter the whole time. Seeing the disappointment in her eyes, he couldn't help but reach out and pick up the little girl.
"What's wrong? Is it not tasty?" Tang Bugui leaned close to his daughter and asked in a low voice.
Little Su Bao paused, then shook her head.
"It's delicious!" she said in her sweet, childlike voice.
"Daddy, Su Bao... Su Bao wants to let Mommy taste the flavor of apricots too..." Little Su Bao said softly, her eyes slightly red.
In the end, she was just a little girl of four or five years old.
Tang Bugui felt a slight pang of pain in his heart as he listened to his daughter's words.
Those dead memories resurfaced once again; that little girl must have liked apricots too!
The father and daughter hugged each other, both thinking of the same person.
Fu Manduo and Su Yun stood not far away, exchanging a glance.
"Sister Su Bao and Uncle Tang both seem very sad!" Fu Manduo said, wringing his handkerchief, looking a little depressed.
Why is her best friend so sad? It breaks her heart!
Su Yun also frowned, a hint of worry in her heart.
However, after a pause, she said, "Time heals all wounds. From now on, let's be nicer to Su Bao and make her happier!"
"Okay!" Fu Manzhong nodded heavily in agreement.
Just then, a sharp sound rang out.
"Help……"
Little Su Bao immediately raised her eyes and looked into the woods.
"Oh no, it's my cousin!" Su Yun didn't care about anything else and ran away.
Although my cousin is a bit of a flirt, she's actually a good person. I can't stand by and watch her get into trouble!
Tang Bugui frowned slightly; he had promised Su Liang that he would take good care of the two girls from the Su family.
Little Su Bao raised her eyes and couldn't help but feel nervous.
Sister Su Ruanruan is quite nice, but she's a little... different from the other sisters.
"Daddy, let's go take a look!" Little Su Bao said hurriedly.
Tang Bugui nodded, picked up Xiao Su Bao, and ran into the woods.
Su Ruanruan's expression was not very good at this moment.
She just spotted a pheasant and shot it with a single shot.
Just as she came over to pick up the pheasant, a wild boar suddenly rushed over from the side.
She barely managed to dodge the wild boar, but then she tripped and twisted her ankle...
Fortunately, Uncle Wang and Brother Sun appeared in time and distracted the wild boar, which saved her from disaster.
Can……
Who told her there were two wild boars here!
That's bad enough, but there were even wild wolves!
For the first time, Su Ruanruan realized that the old monk was right; she was truly plagued by bad luck!
She cried for help, and her bow and arrows were not idle either; she fired an arrow directly at the wolf that was about to approach.
"This can't go on!" She leaned against the tree, her face looking rather pale.
Uncle Wang and Brother Sun couldn't handle it!
She looked a little pale.
Just then, Xiao Su Bao's voice suddenly came: "Soft Sister, lie down!"
Su Ruanruan almost instinctively lay down!
In that instant, a wolf leaped over her head.
If she hadn't knelt down, the wolf's mouth would probably have been aimed directly at her neck...
Su Ruanruan gasped, her body trembling slightly.
"You dare to show off, even trying to fight wolves!" Ling Buqi snorted, but his pace didn't slow down.
Su Ruanruan didn't have time to speak, but her eyes showed a hint of nervousness.
Little Su Bao frowned slightly as she looked at the wolves and wild boars.
