Cheng Sang slept early and woke up early.
She opened her eyes and saw Su Xiaoxiao lying beside her and sleeping cutely.
A great sense of joy and satisfaction surged in her heart.
Mei Ji fell asleep on Su Xiaoxiao’s other side.
Cheng Sang shook her awake and whispered, “Little bird demon, little bird demon!”
Mei Ji opened her eyes in a daze. “What?”
Cheng Sang’s eyes were as bright as stars. “Look at Weiwei. She’s sleeping so soundly! ”
Mei Ji was speechless.
Cheng Sang had the urge to show off her daughter and successfully strangled all of Mei Ji’s sleepiness.
Mei Ji regretted it. If she had known that Cheng Sang was so obsessed, she wouldn’t have squeezed with the two of them last night. It would have been better for her to sleep alone at Cheng Sang’s place.
Breakfast was made by the kitchen maid in the courtyard.
Ever since Su Xiaoxiao moved into the courtyard, the chef’s work had almost been snatched away. If this continued, the chef was worried that she would lose her job, so she made a sumptuous breakfast.
Cheng Sang’s appetite was much better now and She was willing to eat obediently. Her complexion had recovered a little.
Su Xiaoxiao was not in a hurry to use any medicine to nourish her body. Her diet was irregular all year round and she was as thin as a matchstick. Her stomach was also damaged and she could not withstand the strong medicinal effects.
She would get her to eat properly first to nourish the stomach.
Su Xiaoxiao scooped a bowl of porridge for Cheng Sang and picked up the meat that Cheng Sang had secretly hidden under the steamed bun. “Don’t eat anything too greasy in the morning.”
Cheng Sang was like a child who had been caught and was a little shy.
Su Xiaoxiao talked about serious matters. “Mother, I still have to go out today. I’ll be back tonight.’
When Cheng Sang heard that her daughter was going out again, she was extremely reluctant.
However, because Su Xiaoxiao returned safely yesterday, she was not as afraid as before that she would not be able to find her daughter.
“Fine. ”
She nodded in agreement.
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “I’ll arrange for someone to protect Mom in secret later.
Mom, don’t be afraid when you see him, and don’t tell anyone.”
“Don’t be afraid. Don’t tell anyone.” Cheng Sang counted with her fingers to remember her daughter’s instructions.
Su Xiaoxiao had always been prepared.
Su Xiaoxiao was not sure if Xie Yunhe and Cheng Lian were benevolent to
Cheng Sang or if everything they did was just to obtain the family head’s token. Now that the family head’s token was in her hands, she had no choice but to be prepared for the two of them to do something desperate.
It would be best if she was overthinking.
If not, prevention was better than cure.
Not long after, Wuhu brought a certain man in black and a black bamboo hat to the courtyard.
The man hugged his sword and pressed down on his bamboo hat with one hand. He made a cool and arrogant pose outside the window. “Which mortal summoned the Divine Lord? I’m..
Cheng Sang looked at a certain someone who was dressed in black from head to toe. Her eyes lit up and she shouted in a very vivid manner, “Little Black!”
Yuchi Xiu was speechless.
Leaving Yuchi Xiu behind, Su Xiaoxiao and Mei Ji left the residence.
After returning from the Holy Maiden Temple last night, the coachman immediately reported their actions in the Holy Maiden Temple to Xie Yunhe. He even asked Emissary Lu to bring back a copy of the prescription they had chosen.
Xie Yunhe found a physician.
After the physician saw the prescription, he said that the herbs on it were indeed used to treat mental illnesses. He even asked where such a brilliant prescription came from.
From this, it could be seen that Su Xiaoxiao’s medical skills were at least genuine.
After the physician left, Xie Yunhe sat quietly in the study for a long time without even seeing Cheng Lian.
Early this morning, he went out to do something.
Su Xiaoxiao brought Mei Ji out of the residence and was stopped by a servant. “Master didn’t say that he would allow you to leave the manor today.” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Then did he say that I’m not allowed to leave the residence?”
“Well…”
The servant choked.
Mei Ji scolded, “Get out of the way! If you offend my Miss and First Madam blames you, you don’t have to be a servant here anymore!”
This trick worked every time.
Cheng Sang had long lost her real power in the Cheng family, but that did not stop Xie Yunhe from treating her well. Whoever provoked her would be immediately chased out.
Su Xiaoxiao and Mei Ji left the residence.
The two of them did not look for Steward Pang to arrange a carriage. Instead, they rented one from a nearby car dealership.
Cheng Qingxue arrived first.
Cheng Lian was going to the streets to buy today and sent Cheng Qingxue over.
She looked at her slender youngest daughter and was very happy. “The position of the Saintess belongs to my child. Go. Don’t worry about anything. Your sister has her own arrangements.”
Whichever family produced a Saintess had a huge advantage in the next Holy Selection.
Back then, when Cheng Sang was pregnant, the Saintess was the daughter of the Ji family. The Ji family had a high chance of winning another term.
If not for the fact that the Holy Bird had landed on Cheng Sang’s pregnant belly by a freak combination of factors and given the Cheng family a Saintess destiny, Cheng Qingyao would probably not have become a Saintess so easily..
