News that the Su family was heading to the capital quickly reached the Old Su family.
These past few days have been nothing short of miserable for them.
On one hand, they endured the cold stares and anger of the villagers. On the other hand, they faced the risk of having to return the land they had taken.
They assumed that the Su family must be extremely happy, and though they hadn’t come over to mock them directly, they were surely celebrating behind their backs.
And It was until today……
They suddenly realized a problem when they heard that the Su family was going to the capital.
The reason why the Su family didn’t take advantage of the situation was not because they wanted to establish themselves, but because they had never valued the Old Su family.
They considered themselves to be in a competitive and hostile relationship with each other, but little did they expect that they treated them like nothing.
They were just like jumping clowns, constantly guessing the attitude and thoughts of the Su family……
Meanwhile, the Su family had already outgrown this small pond.
Or rather, they had never belonged to this pond in the first place. As they were always meant to soar.
Old Mr. Su’s blood surged and he fell down with a thud!
Su Dalang and Su Erlang turned pale, “Grandpaa……”
——
Su Xiaoxiao found Shopkeeper Sun again and told him about her trip to the capital.
“I will leave the affairs of the shop to you and Yuniang.”
Shopkeeper Sun said, “There’s nothing going on in the shop. You can go to the capital with peace of mind.”
After careful consideration, Su Xiaoxiao realized that there was really nothing that could not be solved in business.
The shop had been set up, Liu Ping and Mrs. Wu had also moved in, the decoration drawings had been confirmed, and Mrs. Zhao and Li Xiaoyong had also started working on it……
She didn’t deliberately plan anything, but it seemed like she had already prepared for this day in a mysterious way.
Su Xiaoxiao came out of the shop and saw Doctor Fu squatting on the ground with a bundle of luggage in his arms, while drawing circles on the ground.
Doctor Fu turned his head and saw her.
He stood up and coughed lightly, “My mother…… she asked me to go to the capital to treat the Old Marquis.”
Su Xiaoxiao replied nonchalantly, “Well, that makes things a lot easier……”
Doctor Fu: “? ? ?”
Donglai Inn was the largest inn in Xinghua Town, supposedly owned by the Qi family.
The business was booming and it was nearly impossible to book a room.
However, for the wealthy and noble young masters of the capital, it was no different from sleeping in a storage shed.
Su Yu looked around with disdain, “It’s so shabby ah, the blankets are even moldy! Big brother, if we don’t leave soon, I’m going to start growing mold too!”
Su Mo took a sip of tea and said calmly, “It’s you who insisted on coming along, now you’re complaining?”
Su Yu pouted and said, “Ugh, I regret it……”
Just then, a servant reported from outside the door, “Elder Young Master, Doctor Fu requests an audience.”
Doctor Fu came here with Su Xiaoxiao.
Seeing her, the three brothers were both surprised and unsurprised.
Surprised because they hadn’t expected her to be here.
Unsurprised because they remembered that she was Doctor Fu’s apprentice.
Doctor Fu got straight to the point, “I will go to the capital to treat the Old Marquis, but let me make it clear, I will do my best, but I can’t guarantee he will be cured.”
“That’s fine.” Su Mo nodded, “Is Miss Su coming as well?”
Doctor Fu said seriously, “She’s my apprentice, so of course she is coming. She hasn’t encountered many complex cases, so this will be a good learning experience for her.”
“Alright.” Su Mo didn’t care whether she was truly going for medical experience or had other motives. He only cared about the outcome.
“When can we depart?” Su Mo asked.
Grandfather’s illness should not be delayed, the sooner, the better.
“We can leave immediately.” Su Xiaoxiao answered and continued, “But we won’t be traveling with you.”
Su Yu was stunned, “What?”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “The consultation fee is two thousand taels. Please pay a 30% deposit first.”
