Chapter 53: The Heartless Man Comes Again

  "Ah, so comfortable, it's really refreshing..." Su Xiaofan immersed her hands in the water, and the coolness that swept over her body made her let out a comfortable sigh.

  Xiao Yimou's mouth twitched violently as he gritted his teeth and said, "Woman, don't take Young Master's words lightly."

  "Alright, I wonder how my little treasure is going to play with me?" Su Xiao Fan's hands kept moving back and forth in the basin, creating ripples of water.

  "This will be clear later." Xiao Yimiao raised the corner of his lips and gave a faint, calculating smile.

  Su Xiaofan raised her eyes and stared for a few seconds, that mischievous expression was really likable. Then she exclaimed: "Wow, little treasure is so adorable, come here quickly and let sister hug you."

  Xiao Yi Mo's lips twitched again: "Get out of here when you're done, don't let others see."

  "Alright." Su Xiao Fan reluctantly got up, carrying the basin and following behind him. She thought to herself that this little treasure seemed like the type who liked to control his wife, and wondered what method she could use to train him to listen to her.

  But whether they will get married in the future is still uncertain, no need to worry too much about it.

  Let's talk about it later.

  "Fang Er, don't spend all day soaking in the well water, or you'll get sick when you're old." Ye Shi was very worried about her behavior of staying by the well for days on end. Although she was still young now, her body was weak and it was hard to guarantee that there wouldn't be any problems later on.

  Su Xiaofan held a basin of water, standing at the edge of the eaves, smiling towards her inside: "Don't worry, grandma." After that, her gaze fell on Su Xiao Xuan in her arms with eczema all over his forehead: "Or else, let's go to the pharmacy to buy some anti-itch medicine another day. Otherwise, it won't work if brother cries and fusses like this every day."

  Ye's family also thought of buying some medicine to apply to him, but recently they had to spend a lot of silver coins every day to buy food for the chickens and ducks. Moreover, it was unknown when they could sell the chickens and ducks for silver coins. Thinking that Fan'er's silver coins might be running out too, he dispelled the idea and decided to save money for now. After all, it wasn't a serious illness and would heal in a few days. Fan'er had been like this since childhood.

  Su Xiaofan could roughly guess her estimate from her expression, it was all because she had bought too many chicks last time in excitement and now suddenly made the situation at home tense again.

  However, those I raised earlier are almost two months old. One day I'll slaughter one and try the taste of a young chicken.

  "Xiao Fan!" Yu Xiao Xi hadn't even run to the gate of Su Xiao Fan's house when she waved her hands a few times at the two people standing in the doorway, with a hint of urgency in her expression.

  "What's wrong, slow down, it's so hot today, look at you all sweaty." Su Xiaofan turned around and spoke up when she walked closer, then handed the basin in her hand to her: "Want to wash your face? It's freshly drawn well water."

  Yu Xiaoxi inserted her hand and only slightly wet it before pulling it out again.

  Su Xiaofan vaguely felt that something was wrong and muttered: "It seems I've heard that when you're too hot from running, you can't touch cold water..."

  "Never mind that now, the scoundrel is back, you'd better hide quickly." Yu Xiaoxi took the basin from her hand and put it on the ground, then pulled her hand to go outside.

  "Ungrateful scoundrel?" Su Xiaofan frowned, but the only person she would call an ungrateful scoundrel was Zhang Yuncong.

  "Hmm, I saw him coming this way when I was in the fields, so I took a shortcut over here." Yu Xiaoxi nodded vigorously, that person must be looking for Xiao Fan with no good intentions.

  Su Xiaofan calmly withdrew her hand, adjusting the sleeves and pant legs that she had just lifted: "If he's coming, then so be it. Why should I hide?"

  Yu Xiaoxi panted: "Of course we have to hide, he's coming to find you, definitely with ill intentions."

  Su Xiaofan walked into the main room and handed her a fan: "Alright, don't be in a hurry, just fan yourself."

  It was really too hot, Yu Xiaoxi took it over and fanned wildly.

  When the heat had subsided a bit, just as he was about to pull Su Xiaofan away, he saw Zhang Yun Song walking towards her house not far away, and it seemed that he was carrying many things in his hand.

  "Good boy..." Ye held Su Xiao Xuan and walked to the door, looking out with concern.

  "Grandma, go rest, I'll handle it myself." Su Xiaofan gave her a reassuring smile and then looked at Xiao Yu: "Little treasure, do you want to go in too?"

  "Why should I go in?" Xiao Yimeng raised an eyebrow, his ink-like eyes staring unblinkingly at the figure that was slowly approaching.

  "Woof woof..."

  Xiao Huihui, although still very young, at this moment saw a stranger about to enter the yard, hung his tail and barked loudly at the person, although he was still small, his voice was quite full of energy.

  Su Xiaofan smiled and said: "Xiao Huihui, come back."

  Xiao Hui turned around, gazed at Su Xiao Fan for a moment, then wagged her tail and ran back quickly, standing by Su Xiao Fan's feet and nudging her ankle with her head.

  "Alright, go and play." Su Xiao Fan felt that it looked like a child asking for rewards, making people love it so much.

  Xiao Yi Mo gazed at Xiao Hui's chubby figure running away slowly, her eyes darkening.

  Is it just an illusion of mine?

  She always treats the little dog with a gentle expression, just like when she talks to me.

  "Ordinary child."

  Zhang Yun Song gave Su Xiao Fan a warm and gentle smile, then carried the several packages in his hand and swaggered in, only to flash a hint of puzzlement in his heart - wasn't the little Fan from before afraid of small animals? When did she become so fond of little dogs?

  "Magistrate Zhang, it's better if you still call me Miss Su." Su Xiaofan looked at the several packages in his hand, could it be that he wanted to use these to shut himself up?

  Judging from the current situation, even if he didn't do so, she herself hadn't planned on making the matter public either.

  But in order to prevent him from coming again, maybe I have to make him believe that I won't speak out by doing something, what should I do?

  "When did you become so distant from me?" Zhang Yun's smile on his face was slightly lost.

  Yu Xiaoxi glared at him, and Xiao Fan had always been deceived by his changeable expression. He believed every word he said, and she had also trusted him like that before. But now that she knew his true face, every expression on his face seemed fake to her.

  "My relationship with Mr. Zhang is still a bit distant, let alone you haven't seen the person standing next to me right now, who is my future husband?" Su Xiaofan smiled and looked at Xiao Yimeng, and after seeing his dark and handsome face, she felt a sweet feeling growing silently in her heart, spreading out endlessly.

  She just didn't delve deeper into the profound meaning of that sweet feeling.
