Chapter 168 - Love What I Love, Worry What I Worry
After the women were done cleaning, Old Master Wang and his family went back.
Chen Hu and his family were the last to return.
After cleaning up and going to bed.
Su Sanlang was almost sober.
Madam Zhao leaned against his arm and said gently, “Sanlang, let’s take some time to visit my sister’s family.”
Su Xiaozhi didn’t come today, which made Madam Zhao worried.
Logically speaking, if nothing unexpected happened to Su Xiaozhi, she would definitely come.
But she didn’t come, so something must have happened.
Madam Zhao felt uneasy. A few years ago, after Su Xiaozhi found out the reason, she took off the silver bracelet and gave it to her without any explanation. She could not forget this love.
Thinking of Su Xiaozhi, Madam Zhao also felt a faint worry in her heart.
“Alright, then let’s go tomorrow afternoon.”
Su Sanlang agreed. He reached out to hold Madam Zhao’s hand and looked at her quietly.
In the darkness, Madam Zhao could feel how gentle Su Sanlang’s gaze was.
Su Sanlang reached out and gently smoothed Madam Zhao’s hair by her ear. He said gently, “Darling, thank you.”
Love what I love, worry what I worry.
Madam Zhao’s cheeks heated up slightly. She burrowed into Su Sanlang’s arms and leaned against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat. She said gently, “There’s no need to thank me.”
They were husband and wife, to begin with. They should share hardships and wealth.
Su Sanlang hugged Madam Zhao tightly, his heart at ease.
Sleepiness claimed them both.
The mid-autumn festival was on the 15th of August.
Su Sanlang came into town early in the morning with his family carrying casks of sauerkraut and pickles.
Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling went to the Sun residence together.
There was no acupuncture for Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian yesterday. Su Xiaolu took their pulses first before returning to the courtyard with Su Xiaoling.
Su Xiaoling made two medicinal dishes.
Su Xiaolu watched as round meatballs formed in Su Xiaoling’s hands. She couldn’t help but swallow. “Sis, they look delicious.”
She and her master were still cooking porridge for medicinal cuisine, but her third sister was different.
It was starting to move in the direction of gourmet food.
This little meatball has crispy pickle foam in it.
There was also pigeon soup. Su Xiaolu felt that it was too fragrant.
She would not eat the pigeon soup, but she could eat at least two of these meatballs.
If not for Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian guarding them, she could have eaten two more.
The water boiled. There was no oil in it. Su Xiaoling made the meatballs one by one. When she saw Su Xiaolu and the other two swallowing their saliva, she felt a little shy, but she couldn’t help but smile.
“Sister Xiaoling, you’re amazing.”
Sun Baoqian praised her sincerely. They had watched Su Xiaoling grind the medicinal herbs into the meatballs and the pigeon soup. It was cut in half with scissors and stewed in a clay pot. The fragrance quickly came out.
The medicinal herbs were also added in turn. They could smell the fragrance of the ingredients and a faint medicinal fragrance.
“Xiaolu is also very amazing.”
Sun Baoshan pursed his lips and held it in for a long time before saying it. He felt that Su Xiaolu was even more amazing. She was already a little divine doctor at such a young age.
Su Xiaoling smiled and took a spoon and chopsticks to scoop meatballs for them.
“Eat it while it’s hot. Xiaolu, try it and see how it is.”
How could Su Xiaoling not know that Su Xiaolu was greedy? Of course, she would give the good stuff to her sister first.
Su Xiaolu swallowed and ate first. Her mouth was filled with the fragrance of meat. The crisp taste of the pickles was still there. The medicinal properties of the herbs were well preserved. This was easy to cook, so she could eat it after heating it up.
Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “Very good. Sis, you’re a genius.”
Su Xiaoling blushed.
Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian also ate happily. The two siblings each got five meatballs and ate with smiles.
Madam Lian came over to take a look. Her eyes were very gentle. Su Xiaoling also scooped a small bowl for Madam Lian. There were five in a small bowl.
Su Xiaolu said, “Auntie, this is good for your body. It’s fine if you eat some.”
Madam Lian thanked her and tasted it too.
She found it unbelievable. It was the same medicinal cuisine, but the difference was too great.
Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian both revealed blissful satisfaction. They could eat such medicinal cuisine every day.
Su Xiaoling went to see the pigeon soup. It was about time. She first gave the pigeon meat to Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian. She said, “After you guys finish the meat, drink another bowl of this soup.”
“I’ll go back, then, Auntie.”
Su Xiaoling smiled at Madam Lian.
Madam Lian nodded. Su Xiaolu stood up and sent Su Xiaoling out.
She held Su Xiaoling’s arm and said sweetly, “Sis, you’re amazing. When we’re home. I want to eat your fish and mutton noodles and spicy fish.”
Su Xiaoling rubbed Su Xiaolu’s hair gently and said in a gentle tone, “Okay, I’ll make it for you when you get home in two days.”
She might really be talented at cooking. Madam Qian praised her for learning quickly. She just had to study it more.
Su Xiaoling also liked to cook. Seeing her family eat her dishes contentedly, she felt happy.
After sending Su Xiaoling off, Su Xiaolu returned to the courtyard.
Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian were also full.
Su Xiaolu said to them, “Go back and practice Tai Chi. I’ll give you acupuncture tonight.”
Madam Lian wiped Sun Baoqian and Sun Baoqian’s mouths with a handkerchief. Now, it seemed that her two children were already very healthy.
But Su Xiaolu was still performing acupuncture. There was also a little black poison on the tip of each needle.
When the day came when there was no more poison, there would be no need for acupuncture.
Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian nodded. They followed Su Xiaolu’s arrangements. After a round of Tai Chi, they would break out in a layer of fine sweat. Every time they broke out in a sweat, they would feel that their bodies were refreshed.
As their health improved, the two of them loved to be with Su Xiaolu.
Because they knew that when they didn’t need acupuncture anymore, Su Xiaolu wouldn’t live in Sun residence often.
After the two siblings left, Su Xiaolu began to grind and grind medicine. She was already very familiar with brewing scar removal ointment. According to the plan, a batch would be released this month to sell.
After Su Xiaolu brewed the medicine, Madam Lian was in charge of the distribution and subsequent matters.
So Su Xiaolu was not idle.

Su Xiaoling returned to the shop and helped sell the sauerkraut and pickles. With Su Xiaoling’s help, Su Sanlang went out. Not long after Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng left school, Su Sanlang returned with the items.
It was some cloth and white flour. He was going to take them to Su Xiaozhi’s house.
Su Xiaozhi was married to Xiaohu Village, which was a few mountains away. It would take an hour and a half to walk there.
On the way, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao told the children that they were going to visit Su Xiaozhi.
Because they wouldn’t be back tonight, they instructed the children to take good care of the house.
Su Chong, Su Hua, and the others had to go to school and wake up early tomorrow morning.
Chen Hu and his family were the last to return.
After cleaning up and going to bed.
Su Sanlang was almost sober.
Madam Zhao leaned against his arm and said gently, “Sanlang, let’s take some time to visit my sister’s family.”
