Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Visiting an Old Traditional Chinese dicine Doctor Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Visiting an Old Traditional Chinese dicine Doctor Second Su waved his fist and stopped mid-air.

Right, with barely any money in her man’s pocket, won out there aren’t foolish.

“Calm down now?”

“Stopped crying?”

“Stopped making a fuss?”

Su Chenghe gave his stealthy wife a look, used one arm to embrace each of his sons and coaxed them.

“Stop crying, your mother is fussing for nothing. What are you two crying for?”

The two brothers sniveled and looked at their dad, then at their mom, and finally stopped crying, their lips smacking.

Looking at his sons with snot bubbles and then at his wife’s face sared with snot and tears, Su Chenghe found it unbearable to watch.

“Spit it out, who’ve you been listening to gossiping around this ti?

If you won’t tell, rember I’m not one to ss around. Even if I were, with my brother and Second Su around, do you think they’d let ?”

Seeing his wife stutter, Su Chenghe knew it had to be related to her maternal family.

“Was it sothing your family said again?”

Hearing the gritted teeth in her husband’s voice, Second Su muttered softly, “My mom and they, they just want what’s good for .”

Su Chenghe, holding back the veins throbbing on his forehead, grudgingly advised his wife to pay less heed to the nonsensical talk of won in her family.

“They hardly do any real work; they just extend their hands too far.”

“I can’t be bothered with you, just take good care of the kids at ho and stop spreading idle gossip at your mom’s.”

The two brothers, carrying stuff, went to find their parents, chatting and laughing.

Both sisters-in-law watched as Su Chenghe brought ho brown sugar, butter peach crisps, and malted milk, each harboring their own thoughts.

Eldest Sister-in-law Su felt a sting of jealousy, realizing that the second brother must have made good money in the provincial city.

Her own dim-witted head, still clinging to that dead-end job in the factory, how much could that possibly earn.

Second Su felt a pang in her heart; not even a festival or anything, and he buys brown sugar and peach crisps like it’s nothing. What’s more, even malted milk, that stuff is expensive.

Rembering the deliciously sweet malted milk her husband made last ti left her craving more.

Unfortunately, after opening and having it once, it was taken back to her mom’s house.

Spiced Food Courtyard

Aunt Su, in high spirits, got picked up by Uncle Su, Liu Fugui, since their daughter in senior year, Liu Yang, returned from school today.

“Let’s invite Yangyang over to play tomorrow.”

“Got it, got it, elder sister, second sister, please co in.”

Aunt Su, Liu Fen, bead, “If Yangyang manages to get into university in a couple of years, our Old Su Family will shine too.”

“That kid Yangyang is smart, who knows…”

Mrs. Lu squinted her eyes and took another look, “Aren’t those Cheng Ming and Cheng He, the Su brothers?”

“Hey, really they are, when did the second co back?”

Aunt Su took a closer look, indeed it was her own brothers.

Mrs. Lu saw what the brothers brought and laughed.

“Elder Sister-in-law, look at how filial the children are.”

The elder, Su Chengming, scratched his head feeling a bit embarrassed, “It was the second brother who bought them; I just helped carry.”

“That’s enough, let’s go inside.”

…

“By the way, Cheng He, when you go back tomorrow tell Second Su that the shop she wanted has already been found by your uncle, two of them, see what she thinks?”

“Sure, second aunt, I’ll tell Second Su when I get back tomorrow.”

Uncle Su and his wife were happy to see their two sons, still unaware of why the younger one ca back.

They just thought he missed his wife and kids and ca back to visit.

When Susu learned that the shop had been secured, she thought about going back to check it out and keep an eye on the shop’s renovation and opening.

The couple had discussed this earlier; Lu Xiaoi was in charge of managing the accounts of several shops in the county.

It was like early practice for finance students, every fortnight she took the books ho for Susu to check.

When Lu Xiaoi learned she’d still get a salary of twenty-five yuan each month, she excitedly slapped her chest and promised it would definitely be error-free.

“Second Su, don’t worry, even if I lose myself, I definitely won’t make any mistakes in the accounting.”

“Alright! I trust you, Second Su. Do well, and I’ll give you a raise later.”

After encouraging her, Susu still made it clear to give a warning: if any falsification was discovered in the books, she wouldn’t give face to anyone.

Lu Xiaoi imdiately clung to her Second Su and coaxed her with promises.

“Second Su, let alone others, if our parents knew I dared do such an unconscionable bad thing, they’d kick out of the house imdiately.”

Thinking of her in-laws, Susu already had an image in her head and burst out laughing like a pig.

…

That day, Lu Xiaoting left Xiao Yu in the care of the next-door neighbor, Sister-in-law Wang.

Since Sister-in-law Wang’s youngest son and Xiao Yu were classmates, Sister-in-law Wang agreed cheerfully.

“Go ahead, it’s okay, the boys are in the sa class, so a few kids together going to school should be fine.”

Susu patted the reluctant little guy, “Don’t worry, we’ll have your uncle bring you back during the holidays.”

“Okay, but Aunt, you have to behave and not overwork yourself.”

Xiao Yu advised her earnestly.

Watching the little guy sigh like a little adult, the two adults didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

The next day, as the man watched from outside the car, the vehicle slowly drove away.

The shadow of the man behind her gradually turned into a black dot and slowly disappeared.

“Mother?”

Susu looked at her mother-in-law pushing a tricycle, wasn’t it funny?

“Be careful, Susu.”

Hearing the voice, Mrs. Lu’s eyes lit up and she jogged over to help her daughter-in-law.

She helped her up into the thickly padded, extra sturdy back of the tricycle.

“Mom, it’s so comfy! Thanks, Mom.”

“The child, it’s family, no need for thanks.”

Mrs. Lu replied, closing the back of the tricycle, and then she pulled down the cart’s canopy to shelter them from the wind.

On the way, Mrs. Lu cautiously avoided every pothole to keep from jostling her daughter-in-law, progressing at a snail’s pace.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went straight to look at the shop.

One was by the bus station on the roadside, with a decent amount of foot traffic, just that the area had too many passersby and could get a bit chaotic.

Another was near the county cinema, right across the street, with a few small vendors nearby.

Considering the safety of the staff, Susu chose a storefront across from the cinema.

Worried that the landlord might see the good business and frequently raise the rent, Susu directly pulled out one thousand yuan to buy the property.

Mrs. Lu watched her daughter-in-law spend one thousand yuan in the blink of an eye to buy a shop, suppressing the pain she felt inside.

It’s alright, opening a shop is for making money.

If needed, she could always sell more marinated goods later.

They agreed with the landlord to et at 9 a.m. the next day, money in one hand and keys in the other.

“Susu, settle in, Mom’s taking you to the old Chinese doctor to get your pulse checked.”

Mrs. Lu led her daughter-in-law straight to the old Chinese doctor’s ho.

“Doctor He, look at my daughter-in-law, she’s only four months pregnant but her belly looks so big. Is it the baby is large or too much amniotic fluid?”

The old Chinese doctor gestured, “Extend your hand, let take your pulse.”

Susu obediently placed her hand flat, her heart beating rapidly.

For so reason, she always felt a bit nervous seeing the doctor.

“Doctor He, how is it?”
