Chapter 182 - 182 Meeting
182 Meeting
Business went surprisingly smoothly for the next two days. Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou stayed in the small courtyard to make snacks and did not meet Qin Yun again.
Qin Yun did not cause trouble for them. It was unknown if he did not care or if he was really disciplined.
After three days of business, they received their remuneration, which was 100 taels more than Manager Sun had agreed on.
Manager Sun only returned late that night and did not know about the fight between Su Ergou and Qin Yun.
He looked at the banknote in his hand and asked Steward Yu, “Did you give the wrong amount?”
He was greedy for money, but every tael of silver had to be earned legitimately. He would not take such things that others had carelessly given him.
Steward Yu smiled. “I didn’t pay the wrong amount. Your snacks are very delicious. You deserve this.”
Therefore, Manager Sun thought that the other 100 taels were a reward from the big family. This was not strange. Some decent big families were generous and would reward them when they were happy.
Manager Sun smiled and thanked him. He took out two large ingots from his pouch and stuffed them into Steward Yu’s hand.
Steward Yu declined.
“Take it, take it!” Manager Sun stuffed it into his arms. “Thank you for taking care of us for the past three days.”
Steward Yu smiled and said, “I actually didn’t do anything.”
Manager Sun said to him sincerely, “Sigh, how can I not understand the personalities of my two little bosses? They will definitely cause trouble wherever they go. They’ve been here for three days. Can I believe that they didn’t cause trouble for three days? You probably had to watch them closely!”
Steward Yu said in a daze, “Uh… you still don’t know?”
Manager Sun said, “What?”
Steward Yu said, “On the first day you came here, Brother Ergou slapped my young master.”
Manager Sun was speechless.
… .
After finishing work early today, Su Xiaoxiao decided to visit Grandmaster Hui Jue in the nunnery.
Wei Ting looked at the three little ones in the room. “I’m going out. Are you with me, or…”
The three little ones took three steps back in unison and hugged Su Xiaoxiao’s leg.
Su Xiaoxiao chuckled. This guy clearly didn’t want to take care of the children and deliberately asked this, making it seem like it was the choice of Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu.
How scheming!
However, seeing that he looked like he was going out to kill someone, she was a little worried if she really handed the children to him.
Su Xiaoxiao touched the heads of the three little ones. “Let’s go climb a mountain.”
The three little ones cried out happily and ran around the house with their small hands raised.
Indeed, their relationship with their mother was biological, and their father was dispensable.
Su Xiaoxiao also brought Su Ergou along.
Wei Ting drove the carriage to the foot of the nunnery. “I’ll pick you up in about four hours.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Okay.”
The group alighted from the carriage.
The three little ones rushed up. Their calves were short, and the steps in front were short. They climbed quite quickly, but the terrain at the back was steep. When the steps were high, they could only use their hands and feet.
The three children climbed up. Dahu was the strongest and quickly left his two brothers behind.
Xiaohu was the weakest. As he crawled, he could not even see Dahu’s butt.
He had given up again.
He lay down on the steps and stopped climbing!
Erhu looked at his lone warrior brother in front of him and then at his slacker brother behind him, wondering if he should be a determined lone warrior or a slacker.
Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou took turns carrying them, mainly Xiaohu and Erhu. Dahu climbed a lot himself.
This child was a real tiger.
After arriving at the nunnery, Su Xiaoxiao saw the little nuns from the last time.
Su Xiaoxiao’s weight was too easy to recognize. The little nuns recognized her at a glance.
Of course, the little nuns also recognized the dark-skinned Ergou, who had helped them steal fruits.
“Patrons, are you here to look for Grandmaster Hui Jue?” a little nun asked.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Yes, is Grandmaster Hui Jue around?”
The little nun said, “Yes, but she is meeting guests now. You have to wait for a while. I’ll bring you to the meditation room to sit.”
Due to their friendship of stealing fruits together, the little nuns invited Su Ergou in.
“Senior Sister, they’re so cute.”
A ten-year-old nun pinched the faces of the three little ones.
The little nun who was called Senior Sister said with a serious expression, “You can’t be rude to the young benefactors! Seriously, you children won’t listen no matter what!”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “May I ask how old you are?”
The little nun raised her chin and said proudly, “Eleven!”
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.
The eleven-year-old “senior” nun settled them in a meditation room in Grandmaster Hui Jue’s courtyard.
The three little ones were very favored by the little nuns. The little nuns had never seen such cute children and they were triplets. None of them wanted to leave, so they stayed in the courtyard to play with them.
The eleven-year-old nun said in an elderly manner, “Amitabha. My junior sisters are young, and their words and actions are quite childish. Please forgive them.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded.
The nun said seriously, “Have you finished memorizing the Buddhist scriptures? Have you digested the content of the morning class? Master is not around, so I’ll do the evening class. I’ll test you in the evening class!”
The little nuns pouted and reluctantly went to chant.
Only she and the three little ones were left in the courtyard.
The three little ones looked at her cutely.
She turned around and looked toward Su Xiaoxiao’s meditation room. After confirming that no one was looking at the door, she squatted down, took out her hand, and pinched the little packrat’s face!
Yayaya!
It was so soft!
How could they have such soft faces?
She rubbed and rubbed!
She really wanted to kiss them!
The three little ones who looked like all kinds of emojis were speechless.
“Then, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll visit you another day.”
In the meditation room, Su Yuan stood up and bade farewell to Mistress Hui Jue.
Grandmaster Hui Jue said, “Send my regards to your father.”
Su Yuan said, “I will. Please take care.”
Grandmaster Hui Jue asked, “Is your father’s health still not improving?”
Su Yuan sighed and said, “It’s the same as before. It’s not too bad. It’s just that on Aunt’s death anniversary every year, he will fall ill.”
Mistress Hui Jue wanted to say something but hesitated. She paused and said, “You should head back.”
Su Yuan came out of the meditation room.
The little nun stopped pinching the three little ones and hurriedly straightened up. Her face was Buddha-like and empty.
Su Yuan looked at her and then at the three children at the side.
Triplets were too rare. Even Su Yuan could not help but look at them for a while longer.
The three children looked…
At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao walked out with a dry towel. “Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu, come and wipe your sweat.”
Su Yuan retracted his gaze in time and moved aside to avoid bumping into her.
Su Xiaoxiao dodged to the side in time.
This agility made Su Yuan look sideways.
Su Xiaoxiao went to wipe the sweat off the three little ones.
Su Yuan took a few steps forward. For some reason, he turned around and looked at the little fat girl.
