Chapter 430: Biological Flesh

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At Pear Blossom Lane, Su Xiaoxiao sat in the central room and counted the boxes left behind by Matriarch Wei.

Although she said that she was here to see her great-grandson, she had also bought gifts for the whole family.

The gilded wooden knife was Dahu’s.

The emerald amber agate was Erhu’s.

The hammer set was Xiao Hut s.

The jewelry was Su Xiaoxiao’s.

The four treasures of the study were Su Ergou’s.

In addition, there was Su Chengs. It was a jar of high-grade tea leaves.

Su Cheng liked to drink tea. It was unknown which fellow had told Matriarch Wei.

“You?” Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting.

Wei Ting said coldly, “It wasn’t me.”

There were some gold ornaments in the jewelry. Su Xiaoxiao grabbed a handful and distributed it to the three little ones.

The three little ones only had the habit of hoarding small change.

They immediately returned to the house and dug out their small bags. They packed in the little gold ornaments and hid them back!

Su Xiaoxiao wore jewelry all over her head like a shining golden peacock.

Then, she looked at Wei Ting sympathetically. “Aiya, you’re the only one who doesn’t have anything. How pitiful.”

Wei Ting said, “Heh, childish.”

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

Ever since they couldn’t be bathed by Su Xiaoxiao, the three little ones weren’t interested in taking a bath. As soon as one of them was caught, the other jumped out and refused to cooperate.

“Ergou!”

Su Cheng called Su Ergou over and finally washed the three children clean.

When they were with Master Ling Yun, it was them who played with Master.

When they were with the five aunties, it was the aunties who played with them.

The three little ones were exhausted and fell asleep.

Su Xiaoxiao covered the three of them with the blanket.

Wei Ting had also taken a shower. He walked over with his long hair draped over his shoulders, his body carrying the clean fragrance of a bath.

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

Su Xiaoxiao sized him up. If she couldn’t eat him, she could at least take a look!

“Are you… sleeping here tonight?” she asked.

Wei Ting gave her a cold look. “In your dreams.”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “You took a shower and came to my room with disheveled hair. Your behavior can be defined as seduction!”

Wei Ting sneered. “Is that so? Then are you planning to submit yourself to

Su Xiaoxiao looked down.

Damn!

The button was open!

She hurriedly buttoned up.

She lost weight quickly everywhere except her chest and butt.

She glared at Wei Ting bitterly. “You got off easy!”

Realizing what she was referring to, Wei Ting’s ears turned slightly red. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.

“Get down to business,” he said.

If they didn’t get down to business, there was a risk that they would get down on each other accidentally.

He told her about the conversation in the study.

“A mole.” Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “He knows you very well and has a chance to get your grandfather’s Commander’s Seal… Do you have anyone to suspect?”

Wei Ting said, “Not at the moment.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “That’s true. It’s been so many years. Perhaps we could still deduce some clues from his reaction back then. It’s not certain if that person is still with you now.”

“Yes,” Wei Ting said. “At least he’s still in the capital.”

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes. “That’s right. It’s most likely this mole who poisoned the Old Marquis!”

Wei Ting agreed. “It’s most likely him.” Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully, “Looks like we have to continue digging deeper.”

“Wei Ting,” Su Xiaoxiao said again.

“What’s wrong?” Wei Ting asked.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and voiced her doubts. “Today… I saw your grandmother and five sisters-in-law. Where’s your mother?”

“My mother…” Wei Ting hesitated for a moment and said, “She has never been close to anyone. Later on, something happened to my grandfather and my father and brothers. She moved to a courtyard in the west of the residence and ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhism. She no longer interacted with anyone. During festive seasons, my sisters-in-law and I will visit her. She doesn’t meet us every time. Grandmother and my sisters-in-law have always been in charge of the matters in the residence, mainly Sister-in-law.”

Su Xiaoxiao was silent for a long time. “It sounds like your mother is a person who stands aloof from worldly affairs, but as long as she’s human, she will have seven emotions and six desires. Losing her husband and sons must have been a huge blow to her. Everyone’s reaction after suffering a blow is different. Some will break down, some will suppress it, and some will have… confused memories like my father before.”

Wei Ting looked into the darkness. “I don’t know. When I was young, I saw that other mothers were very close to their children, so I ran to her. I also wanted to be close to her. However, the way she looked at me was always filled with distance and coldness. She hasn’t hugged me since I can remember.” Su Xiaoxiao really pitied Wei Ting now.

In her previous life, although Madam Li did not dote on her much, she still worked hard to act like a loving mother and filial child with her.

She was a public figure after all. She could not lose her persona.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Is she like this with your other brothers?”

Wei Ting recalled, “She wasn’t too close to my brothers, but she was the most cold to me. At first, I thought that it was because she didn’t like her son to practice martial arts, so I hid my talent in martial arts. I studied hard and became a 17-year-old high school top scholar. I thought that I was finally a son she was satisfied with. In the end, she still only looked at me coldly.”

Su Xiaoxiao widened her eyes. “Could you have been picked up?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “I hope so too, but I’m indeed my parents’ biological son.”

Su Xiaoxiao pulled her ear. “Okay.” Wei Ting said, “That’s why I envy you sometimes.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I envy myself too.”

Wei Ting was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao got back to the topic. “Your grandmother dotes on you too. You also have five sisters-in-law. Although it’s a little unbearable, they’re sincere with you.”

Wei Ting frowned. “Why is it unbearable with my sisters-in-law?”

Su Xiaoxiao stood up and stepped on the stool domineeringly. “Oh, you’re arguing, right? I can’t say anything bad about your family, right? That’s how the conflicts between a couple came about!”

Of course, Wei Ting would not argue with her.

They couldn’t argue either.

As long as the two of them were a little louder— “Daughter! Son-in-law! What’s wrong?” It would be like this.

Su Cheng rushed in with a butcher knife.

Su Xiaoxiao held her forehead. “Dad, did you bring a knife to my room in the middle of the night to chop me or him up?”

“Oh, you’re talking about this.” Su Cheng smiled awkwardly. “I was chopping preserved pork ribs just now and forgot to put this down.”

Su Xiaoxiao still maintained the domineering posture of a bandit standing on a stool, while Wei Ting leaned back in his chair weakly, looking like he had been ravaged by her and was unable to resist.

Su Cheng coughed lightly and said, “Daughter, my son-in-law’s hand hasn’t recovered yet. Take it easy.”

Su Xiaoxiao wondered, “What did I do now?

He caught the sleeve arrow with his bare hands today. His hands were clearly very good!

“Um, I’ll go chop the ribs.”

Su Cheng left!
