Chapter 700: Befriending a Sugar Daddy

This was the first time Su Xiaoxiao had gone out so far. To be honest, it was indeed a little bumpy.

She patted the heads of the three little fellows. “Are you tired?” The three of them shook their heads.

Wei Ting snorted. “How can children know how to be tired?”

Especially the three at home. They were extremely energetic and jumped around in the carriage.

“Mother, I want water,” Dahu said.

Su Xiaoxiao’s greatest observation when she came to Western Jin was that it was dry. If she did not drink more water during the day, her throat would be dry and painful the next day.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at their dry mouths and went to get the water bag. She shook it and said, “It’s empty.”

Wei Ting lifted the curtain and looked at the long queue at the city gate before looking at the tea sheds on both sides of the road. “We’ll go sit in the tea shed for a while.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Alright.”

The family of five alighted from the carriage, and Xing’er also alighted from the carriage behind.

Su Xiaoxiao finally understood why Matriarch Wei asked her to bring the youngest maidservant. Xing’er was in good health and was fine after a long journey.

Fu Su and Ah Fu drove the carriage to line up.

The few of them chose a tea shed with few customers. Although they took a few more steps, it was quiet.

Xing’er wiped the stool. “Young Master, Young Madam, sit.”

The three little ones sat on one stool, and Wei Ting, Su Xiaoxiao, and Xing’er each sat on a stool.

The waiter in the tea shed walked over and asked them with a smile, “Sir, what do you want?”

“Two pots of tea,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “A pot of tea leaves and a pot of warm water.”

Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting did not look like ordinary people. It was obvious that they had money. The waiter was very friendly. Not only did he bring tea over, but he also sent two plates of pickled vegetables.

The three little ones gulped down two large cups and finally felt comfortable.

“You drink too,” Su Xiaoxiao said to Xing’er.

“Aye,” Xing’er agreed and poured tea for Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting.

Speaking of which, she was a maidservant and should serve Miss. However, along the way, Miss had taken care of her a lot.

Xiaohu pointed at the steamer on the stove and said, “I’m hungry. I want to eat some buns.”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and asked Dahu and Erhu, “Do you want to eat it too?” Both of them nodded.

Su Xiaoxiao asked for two baskets of buns and asked if there were any side dishes.

The shop assistant smiled and said, “Yes, yes! Do you want meat or elements?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Both.”

The shop assistant introduced, “Our shop’s braised meat is not bad. Why don’t we give you some?”

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “Two catties.”

The assistant was stunned. “Two, two, two catties?” Did they have such huge appetites?

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Fry two more plates of side dishes.”

The shop assistant smiled and said, “Madam, please wait a moment. I’ll be right there!”

The buns came the fastest.

Wei Ting was not hungry yet and let them eat first.

“I’ll go get water first.”

Xing’er picked up the four water bags on the table and went to the stove to get cold water.

Su Xiaoxiao washed the three little ones’ hands and gave them each a big meat bun. The three of them held the meat bun with both hands and ate it.

“Boss! Give me two baskets of buns!”

Accompanied by a hearty voice, a young man sat down at the table slightly away from them.

He had a golden belt and a golden earring. The crown and hairpin on his head were also jade inlaid with gold. This person was only short of showing his wealth on his face.

Perhaps because he looked too rich, an old beggar woman walked over with a walking stick and handed him a porcelain bowl. “Master, give me something to eat. The children at home are about to starve to death.”

The servant at the side scolded, “What are you doing? Don’t touch my Second Master with your dirty hands! Move aside!”

The old lady didn’t give in. She tried harder to hand the bowl forward.

Seeing that she was about to touch his master’s sleeve, the servant couldn’t take it anymore and pushed him.

“Ouch—” She fell to the ground with a scream.

The young man quickly stood up and frowned at her. “Old lady, are you alright?”

He turned around and glared at the servant. “What happened?” The servant muttered, “I didn’t use much strength..

“Ouch—Ouch—” The old lady wailed on the ground in pain.

The passersby couldn’t stand it anymore.

“The old woman is already so old, but she had to come out to beg. It’s fine if you don’t want to do charity, but you still pushed her? Do you have a conscience?”

“That’s right! Aren’t you afraid of killing someone!”

“He’s wearing gold and silver and can’t even bear to give a mouthful. What a profiteer! ”

“Hey—who are you scolding?” The servant was unhappy and walked towards the pedestrians.

“Enough! Don’t cause trouble!” The young man stopped the servant, squatted down, and personally helped the old lady up. He took out two large ingots from his pocket and handed them to her.

“My servant is insensible and made you suffer. Take this money back and buy some food for your family. With the rest, go to the medical center and get a ointment.”

Su Xiaoxiao took a bite of the bun.

Two gold ingots at once. How generous.

“Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!”

The old lady accepted the ingots and was about to kowtow to the young man when he stopped her.

The old lady left with the ingots. At this moment, Xing’er returned with a water bag. The old lady limped and accidentally bumped into Xing’er.

“I’m sorry, Miss. I’m sorry!” She apologized profusely.

“I’m fine.” Xing’er shook her head.

The old lady smiled awkwardly and left with her walking stick.

“Wait.” Su Xiaoxiao stopped her.

It was unknown if the old lady did not hear her or if she was calling her, but she did not stop.

Su Xiaoxiao casually took a chopstick from the bamboo tube on the table and waved her fingers, hitting the other party’s back knee. The other party’s knees went weak and she fell to the ground!

The passersby discussed again.

“Aiya! Why is this person like this? She even bullied an elderly?” “Who is it?”

“I think it’s from that table! The one with… three children!”

“You’re a person with children, but you bullied an old woman like this. How heartless!”

The old lady was about to howl.

Xing’er suddenly touched her waist and exclaimed, “My money bag is gone! It was still there just now! I even touched it when I fetched water!”

She quickly thought of that old lady and saw her young lady beating her up. She immediately understood.

She turned to look at the old woman on the ground. “Did you steal my money

The old lady’s eyes flashed. She stood up and ran!

Everyone was stunned. How was this a crippled olf lady? She could clearly run faster than them!

Su Xiaoxiao threw another chopstick over. This time, she used a little strength and numbed one of her legs.

She fell heavily to the ground, and the money bag in her arms was thrown out.

The servant looked at the gold purse and gold token on the ground and shouted, “Second Master! It’s yours!”

The young man hurriedly dug into his pocket. As expected, the token and money bag were gone.

“So she’s a thief!”

Seeing that the situation was bad, the thief couldn’t be bothered to pick up the treasures on the ground. She gritted her teeth and got up. She turned around and glared at Su Xiaoxiao before limping away.

The young man picked up the things on the ground and took back his. He brought the remaining various pouches and money bags to Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao. “May I ask which is the money bag you lost?”

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression didn’t change. “All of them.”

The young man was speechless.

And so was the servant.

The young man gave Su Xiaoxiao the pile of money bags that clearly came from different owners.

He said politely, “Thank you so much just now. Are you going to enter the city later? From your accent, you don’t sound like a local. Where are you going to the West Capital? I’m very familiar with the West Capital. I can send you there.” Su Xiaoxiao sized him up and said, “The Princess’s Residence.”

The young man was stunned. “Miss is going to the Princess’s Residence? Something happened to the princess’s residence. Don’t you know?”

Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting exchanged glances.

“What happened?” Wei Ting asked.

The young man sighed. “The Princess is practicing the art of anti-winning in the residence. The entire residence is banned..”
