Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was dusk.
Su Xiaoxiao went to find Cheng Sang.
Cheng Sang was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, watching Su Ergou mend his book bag.
The book bag was new and had been used for less than two days. After school, she went to the roadside stall to buy fried fruits and did not notice that a small hole had burned through the bag
Su Ergou had grown up with hardships. He couldn’t bear to replace it, so he wanted to mend it and continue using it.
Cheng Sang looked at his clumsy appearance and said with heartache, “Give it to Grandmother.”
Su Ergou handed over the book bag and needle and thread. “Be careful of the needle.”
Cheng Sang said to Zongzheng Wei, “Give me the basket.”
Zongzheng Wei resisted the urge to buy a thousand golden book bags for Su Ergou. He silently handed over the embroidered basket beside him.
After Su Xiaoxiao’s careful treatment, Cheng Sang’s condition improved a lot. It was not difficult for her to thread a needle. She put on the thimble and st.i.tched it up intently.
Fifteen minutes later.
Looking at the large asymmetrical patch on the hole, the three of them fell silent.
It was indeed a little difficult for the Cheng Family Head.
Cheng Sang felt awkward.
Zongzheng Wei sighed, “Let me do it.”
He took the book bag and used scissors to dismantle the super-large patch that Cheng Sang had sewn on it.
Then.
It was even uglier.
Cheng Sang glanced at him speechlessly.
Zongzheng Wei said in all seriousness, “At least it’s st.i.tched up.”
Cheng Sang wanted to say, “Yes, you sewed it up. You sewed the entire book bag shut!”
There were also maidservants in the residence who knew needlework.
However, it was obvious that what was used to produce Su Ergou’s book bag was not an ordinary embroidery technique. They could only patch it up and could not do it like before.
Su Ergou scratched his head. “Why don’t I go look for Aunt Bai? She knows how to do this.”
After saying that, he realized that he might have said something wrong and glanced at Cheng Sang nervously.
Cheng Sang smiled. “Take it and show it to your Aunt Bai. If she can’t st.i.tch it up, Grandmother will buy you a new one.”
Seeing that his grandmother was not angry, Su Ergou secretly heaved a sigh of relief and took the book bag.
Cheng Sang looked at the scissors and needles on the table and sighed. “Why don’t I even know how to do this?”
Zongzheng Wei said softly, “Sangsang doesn’t need to know.”
Cheng Sang lowered her eyes and did not answer him.
Zongzheng Wei smiled. “Go take a walk. You’ve been sitting for a long time. It’s time to move around. Xiaoxiao wants you to move around more.” Su Xiaoxiao was his trump card.
Cheng Sang got up and went for a walk with Zongzheng Wei.
Zongzheng Wei looked casual, but he was actually leading Cheng Sang to the north courtyard.
That was where Bai Xihe lived.
Bai Xihe and Su Cheng were not married yet. Logically speaking, it was inconvenient for them to stay in the residence. However, at this critical moment, the Empress Dowager was giving the order to “search” for the whereabouts of the Grand Empress Dowager.
Only the Protectorate was the safest.
Bai Xihe and Cheng Sang were aware of each other’s existence, but they did not disturb each other.
Zongzheng Wei understood that although Cheng Sang did not mention it, ahe actually wanted to see Bai Xihe with her own eyes.
When they arrived at the small garden, they heard the excited voices of the three little ones from afar.
The three little ones had just finished wreaking havoc on their grandmaster when they b.u.mped into Uncle Ergou on the way, so they came with him.
Dahu and Erhu lay on Bai Xihe’s lap.
Xiaohu liked to lie down and squeeze Dahu as he lay down.
Bai Xihe looked at them gently. From time to time, she would poke their soft faces with her fair fingers.
The three of them were extremely shy.
It was obvious that Bai Xihe was getting along well with the children.
Bai Xihe did not neglect Su Ergou. She sat him down to eat lychees while she sewed the book bag for him.
Whether a person was hypocritical or sincere, as the king and the head of the Cheng family, they could tell.
Bai Xihe’s gaze was very pure.
After experiencing half a lifetime of hardships, all Cheng Sang wanted now was for the children to be happy and healthy.
She would always miss her Weiwei, but she would be happy for them to have another person who truly loved the children.
Bai Xihe sensed the their gaze and looked up.
The moment she saw Cheng Sang and Zongzheng Wei, she could guess their ident.i.ties.
Anxiety flashed in her eyes.
Cheng Sang smiled gently at her.
Bai Xihe’s heart trembled. Her eyes were slightly moist, and she revealed a smile.
Now that they had the token from Ling Yun, it was time to deal with Xiahou
Yan.
Judging from the current situation, Xiahou Yan was vicious and cunning.
They only had one chance. If they couldn’t lure him out, this “token” would be invalid.
Naturally, it was a favor that Ling Yun was willing to help them. They couldn’t really get him into trouble.
In the end, after some discussion, they decided to use Wei Qing, who looked similar to Ling Yun, to pretend to be Ling Yun and go to the Myriad Immortals Building to lure Xiahou Yan out..
