Chapter 143: Even Robbery Isn’t As Powerful As You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zeng Qing found their angry expressions very cute, but he didn’t anger them anymore. He explained, “I don’t an anything else. I just think that your thoughts and mine coincide.”
“You think my mother is powerful too?”
“Of course!”
“Okay, we forgive you.”
“Yes, we forgive you.”
A child’s friendship was that simple. It ca and went quickly.
Zeng Qing watched for a while and found it boring. Seeing that Su Li was busy outside, he stood up and followed her out.
“Madam Su, did you dry these herbs yourself?” Zeng Qing asked.
Although he didn’t know much about dicine, he had seen so herbs before, so he recognized the herbs that Su Li had dried in the sun.
Su Li nodded and said, “That’s right. Since I have nothing to do, I dried so dicinal herbs to relieve my boredom.”
Zeng Qing: Relief boredom? He doesn’t believe her!
Su Li looked at him and asked, “When can your n co?”
Zeng Qing thought that Su Li was anxious and explained, “It will probably take a while. It will take so ti to go to town from here.”
Su Li nodded to show that she understood. She shouted into the house,
“Qingyao, Qingmu, stop studying. Bring Riceball to play with your uncle.”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu were a little puzzled. In the past, this was the ti to study. Why was it that they could play without studying today?
Although they didn’t understand why Su Li did this, they still obediently brought Riceball to the vegetable garden to look for Su Ze.
Zeng Qing looked at Riceball, who had run out to play, and couldn’t help but worry. “Madam Su, will this dog lose the thing?”
Su Li said, “Your words remind that Riceball is walking gold now. It’ll be troubleso if soone steals it.’
She called out to Riceball, “Riceball, co here.”
Riceball turned around and glanced at Su Li before running towards her.
Su Li touched Riceball’s head and said, “Co, return this little thing on your neck to first. I’ll change it into sothing better than this another day.”
Although Riceball liked this thing very much, if Su Li wanted it, he would give it to her. Hence, it raised its head obediently and let Su Li untie the rope.
Zeng Qing: “…” Didn’t they say that this dog would be unhappy? Now it seed like it was quite happy!
After untying the rope, Su Li put the small token into her pocket. She patted
Riceball and said, “Alright, go play!”
Riceball skewered it out.
“Sit down first. Call if your people co.”
With that, Su Li took the herbs and entered her workspace. She did not have any extra ti to waste with them here.
The mont she stepped into the workspace, Zeng Qing followed her in.
Su Li stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at him. “Why are you following ?”
The corners of Zeng Qing’s mouth twitched. “Are you going to concoct dicinal herbs? Can I go in with you to observe?”
Su Li sized him up. “Are you trying to steal my skills?”
He was already so old, but it shouldn’t be to this extent, right?
Zeng Qing hurriedly waved his hand and said, “No, no. Look at . I’m already so old. Am I still qualified to study dicine? I’d feel more curious if I don’t go over, so I wanted to follow and take a look.”
Since he had nothing to do anyway, he might as well co and take a look at Su Li concocting dicinal herbs.
Su Li thought for a mont and said, “It’s not impossible to watch if you want to. I’ll let you stand at the side and watch for ten taels of silver.”
Zeng Qing almost lost his balance and fell to the side when he heard her words. “You’re robbing ! No, robbers aren’t even as powerful as you!”
As soon as she opened her mouth, she asked for ten taels of silver. Did she think that silver was like leaves on a tree? She could get it easily.
Su Li raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, “I’m clearly offering a price. If you’re unwilling, you can reject .”
After saying that, she chased him away. “Alright, I’m going to work. Please go out and sit down!”
When Zeng Qing heard that Su Li was chasing him away, he gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, ten taels it is.”
Since he was going to stay anyway, he might as well watch sothing interesting.
When Su Li heard him agree, she doubted it for a mont. She thought that normal people would reject spending ten taels of silver to watch others make dicine.
She sized Zeng Qing up. It seed that this old man in front of her was really stupid and rich.
Su Li stretched out her fair hand and said, “In that case, pay up!”
Zeng Qing endured the pain and took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Su Li. “Is this enough?”
Su Li took the silver and smiled. “Of course. Please co in.
There was also a shelf on the side against the wall. On the shelf were so dicinal herbs that he could not understand. Most importantly, there was a dicinal fragrance in the air. Su Li must have often concocted herbs here.
Su Li sat in front of the workbench and began to develop the dicinal powder.
Zeng Qing stood at the side and watched, not saying anything to disturb her.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
“Master, I’ve brought everything!” It was the old butler’s voice.
Su Li put down the things in her hand and followed Zeng Qing out.
Zeng Qing’s n were moving things into the house. The old butler had prepared rice, flour, oil, cloth, pastries, and so on.
Zeng Qing instructed, “Give them to Madam Su.”
“Yes!” The old butler handed the banknotes and gold chains he had prepared to su Li.
Su Li smiled. She didn’t expect to gain so much this ti. In the blink of an eye, she was going to beco a rich girl.
She had also given him what Zeng Qing wanted. She was a person who kept her word and would definitely do what she said.
Zeng Qing almost laughed out loud when he saw the thing that he had lost and regained. He had been extrely anxious these past few days. If he really could not find this thing, he really would not be able to explain himself.
Both parties were very satisfied, so Su Li and Zeng Qing were much more polite than before. They really looked like guests towards each other.
The Su family’s sudden appearance naturally attracted the attention of the villagers. Everyone began to walk towards the Su family again and gathered outside to watch.
When Su Jidong and Jiao Yuying heard about this, they also returned ho. When they saw that there were suddenly so many people at ho, the honest them were montarily at a loss.
Zeng Qing was very familiar with them and said to them, “You’re Madam Su’s parents, right? I am Zeng Qing..
After Zeng Qing’s guidance, Su Jidong and his wife were no longer so nervous. They began to chat with Zeng Qing and even invited them to eat at ho.
Zeng Qing found an excuse and refused. He only ca this ti to ask for this token back. It was fine if they ate, but what kind of food could the farrs make?
A thought suddenly flashed across Su Li’s mind. She smiled and said, “It’s almost ti for dinner. It’s rare for the few of you to co. If you don’t eat a al and leave, my parents won’t be able to sleep for the next few days..”
