Last time, Zhou Heng told her to be careful of this woman, so she had specially observed her today. She felt that Zhou Heng was right. This woman did not look like an ordinary woman at all.
She often cooked with both hands, and she even had the skincare cream developed by Su Xiaolu to protect her. However, her palms were callused, but that woman’s were not.
Su Xiaoling did not know what that woman’s motive was. Today was also an accident. She had not come to this market to buy groceries for many days. It was really a coincidence to meet her today.
No matter what, she was wary. She would avoid this place next time. No matter what tricks the person had, she would not fall for them.
“Mother, how do you think Eldest Brother and the rest will do this time?”
Su Xiaoling changed the topic.
When Madam Zhao heard this, she smiled and said, “I don’t know either. It’s already beyond my imagination that they can reach where they are now. No matter what, it’s fine. I just hope that they won’t suffer too much. Also, you and Xiaolu, as long as you’re safe and happy.”
Madam Zhao did not think that fame and fortune were that important. She only wanted the children to be healthy.
However, the children had their own pursuits. As their mother, she could only pray for their safety and happiness.
“Don’t worry, mother. We’ll all be fine.”
Su Xiaoling smiled gently and held Madam Zhao’s hand.
Madam Zhao turned to look at Su Xiaoling with gentle eyes. She sincerely begged the heavens to bless her children with peace and joy.
When they returned home, Madam Zhao and Su Xiaoling packed the food they had bought.
At night, Su Xiaolu went next door to invite Liu Zijin’s attendant, Fugui, to a meal.
“Miss Su, I thank Old Master Su and Mrs. Su for their kind intentions, but I’m not going. You’re kind and don’t mind the rules, but I can’t overstep them. Miss, please go back quickly.”
Fugui turned her down with a smile. He was just a servant in County Magistrate Wang’s Mansion, and he must not forget the rules.
He was a slave. It was not a good thing to overstep his status, so he always remembered his identity.
Fugui lowered his head and declined Su Xiaolu’s kindness.
Su Xiaolu would not force him. She nodded and turned to go home without saying anything. However, not long after, she came over with a big bowl with meat and vegetables still steaming.
Su Xiaolu said calmly, “In my eyes, you’re just a neighbor now. It’s normal for neighbors to give each other something.”
Fugui took it with both hands. He smiled and looked up at Su Xiaolu. “Miss Su, thank you. Just this once. I hope you remember that the human heart is unpredictable. Since there are classes, it’s best not to overstep them. A servant has the life of a servant.”
With that, Fugui lowered his eyes.
One should not be too kind to one’s servants. One had to have the grace and authority that one should have. Otherwise, the slave would bully the master.
“I know.”
Su Xiaolu said calmly. She looked at Fugui and said, “For you to be chosen by Liu Zijin as an attendant, you naturally have outstanding qualities. You’re also quite smart. Since you’ve already said so, I’ll be straightforward. Liu Zijin and my brothers are sworn brothers. He’s only bringing you along this time. Don’t forget your identity. The exam is about to end. There will always be some people who want to take advantage of that. If you do something that’s disadvantageous to Liu Zijin, you’re smart enough to know what will happen.”
The imperial examination was about to end. It was inevitable that outstanding students would be chosen by some families’ daughters. Liu Zijin was not bad-looking and had good knowledge. Such a thing had to be prevented.
And he only had Fugui as an attendant by his side. If Fugui couldn’t resist the temptation and betrayed his master, it would be very difficult for Liu Zijin to guard against him.
After Su Xiaolu explained, Fugui was stunned.
He felt that Su Hua and Su Xiaoling were smart, while Su Chong and Su Xiaolu were straightforward and were not scheming. However, Su Xiaolu’s words let Fugui know that he had misjudged.
“Miss Su, don’t worry. I won’t betray Master. Master Wang has raised and saved my life. I’m also literate. If I betray Master, the heavens won’t tolerate it.”
Fugui said sincerely. It was impossible for him to betray his master. Apart from taking care of Liu Zijin, he had accompanied him here to keep an eye on Liu Zijin.
