Chapter 506 - 506 Su Chong's Marriage 2
506 Su Chong’s Marriage 2
She found Su Chong, her son-in-law, pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at him. However, when she thought of how he would marry his daughter, Madam Chen still felt as if a piece of her heart had been dug out.
Su Chong was also very serious and promised with a sincere expression, “Master, don’t worry. I’ll definitely treat Yaoyao well. I can swear that she’ll be the only one for me in this life. Our Su family still has our family rules. I’ll follow the family rules and only have one wife. I won’t have any ulterior motives.”
Madam Chen’s eyes were red as she said in a choked voice, “Just treat her well.”
Lin Pingsheng’s eyes were solemn. He said to Su Hua, “I don’t need you to swear or anything. I just hope that you can treat her well. If you change your mind in the future and she wants to go home, please let her go home. If she doesn’t give birth when she’s past forty, you can even take a concubine.”
When Su Chong heard such heavy words, he was about to say something when Lin Pingsheng patted his shoulder gently.
Su Hua also pulled Su Chong. At this moment, it was meaningless for Su Chong to say anything.
Su Chong calmed down and understood this, so he did not insist on explaining. He nodded solemnly and said, “Okay, I promise you, Master.”
Lin Pingsheng smiled gently and did not say anything else.
The food was sumptuous. Su Sanlang, Su Chong, and Su Hua accompanied Lin Pingsheng for a few drinks.
After dinner, Lin Pingsheng and Mdm Chen returned home. Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao sent them to the door and asked Su Chong to send them back.
Lin Pingsheng was a little drunk, so Madam Chen did not refuse. She thanked him and got into the carriage to take care of Lin Pingsheng.
Su Chong personally drove the carriage over.
When they arrived at the Chu Residence, Su Chong helped Madam Chen help Lin Pingsheng back to the courtyard to settle down before he bade farewell and went home.
Lin Yaoyao brought over a basin of water and met Su Chong.
Lin Yaoyao nodded slightly at Su Chong and entered the house.
Madam Chen wrung out the handkerchief and gently wiped Lin Pingsheng’s face. Lin Yaoyao stood at the side and watched. She asked with concern, “Mother, Father drank so much. Is he alright?”
Madam Chen shook her head gently and said, “It’s fine. Your father is just too happy.”
After his daughter’s marriage was settled, Lin Pingsheng was completely at ease with Su Chong. Although he did not show it, Madam Chen knew that he was very happy.
After Madam Chen took care of Lin Pingsheng, she gently pulled Lin Yaoyao out. After going to the other room, Madam Chen told Lin Yaoyao everything that had happened today.
With that, Madam Chen patted the back of Lin Yaoyao’s hand and said softly, “Yaoyao, after this period of time, you have to start preparing the wedding dress.”
Lin Yaoyao nodded gently. “Yes, thank you, Father and Mother. I’ll prepare well for the marriage.”
Madam Chen smiled gently. Some things were one thing to know and another to accept.
Even though she had told herself countless times that Su Chong was a very good man and that he would treat her daughter well, she was still worried that her daughter would not lead a good life when she thought about her getting married.
Su Chong and Lin Yaoyao’s wedding date was set, the various formalities had also set a date.
Lin Pingsheng and Mdm Chen used all their savings to buy a house outside the capital. The family moved over from the Chu Residence. Lin Pingsheng did not keep a low profile. He had established a school in the capital. While the tuition fees were not cheap, he was famous. Many rich families in the capital were willing to let their children learn from him.
Su Hua and Su Chong often went to school. Even if they did nothing, they could increase the school’s reputation.
In the blink of an eye, October arrived.
Su Chong’s martial arts examination was imminent. He did not train these few days but stayed at home to practice martial arts with Su Xiaolu as usual.
The siblings had not practiced for a long time. They both felt that the other party had made great progress.
After putting away his sword, Su Chong wiped his sword lovingly and said, “Xiaolu, you’ve improved a lot. If Master finds out, he’ll definitely be shocked.”
Su Xiaolu smiled with her white teeth. “Hehe, I didn’t embarrass Master.”
Su Chong smiled. “I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but I feel that my breathing has been very comfortable recently.”
Su Chong paused and took a deep breath. It was a very refreshing and comfortable feeling. He even felt a wave of spiritual energy enter his body as he breathed.
Su Xiaolu looked at Su Chong and said, “Does Big Brother feel this way too? I feel the world is much cleaner and the air is very comfortable.”
This was not Su Chong’s imagination. He did not know what had changed in this world, but it was actually filled with spiritual energy.
The siblings looked at each other and tacitly did not continue this profound topic.
In the capital, that kind of fish had already begun to be sold. As it was delicious and liked by everyone, even if the price of a fish was as high as 100 taels, it was still sought after by countless people.
Before all the ordinary people noticed any changes, the imperial court had already begun to pay attention to it.
Martial arts practitioners could sense spiritual energy and practiced martial arts more diligently than usual. No matter what, powerful martial arts were always useful.
October fourth.
It was the day of the martial arts examination.
The Su family sent Su Chong to the exam hall together.
The martial arts examination was different from the scholar examination. The martial arts examination was all about martial strength and endurance. All the referees were martial artists from all over the Zhou Dynasty. Some were strong, and some were good at fighting.
After Su Chong entered the exam hall, the Su family went home.
Su Xiaolu went to the Wisdom King’s Residence.
Zhou Zhi looked better and better. Su Xiaolu felt that he might have eaten the fish.
However, when Su Xiaolu arrived at the Wisdom King’s Residence today, she immediately felt that the atmosphere was tense. When she saw Su Xiaolu, Jin Qi frowned and said, “Miss Su, you’re here. We were about to invite you.”
“What happened?”
Su Xiaolu asked.
“Master suddenly had a high fever yesterday, but there was nothing wrong with his pulse when Doctor Wu took it. We don’t know what caused it, but Master didn’t allow us to look for you. He said that he was fine, but today, he’s unconscious…”
Jin Qi told Su Xiaolu the reason. Su Xiaolu frowned and said calmly, “Take me there to take a look.”
It was the fever again.
Jin Qi brought Su Xiaolu over. Doctor Wu was still using ice water to cool Zhou Zhi down. He muttered, “What are we waiting for? Aren’t you going to invite Miss Su? You’re not going just because he said no? If something happens, let’s see who you can cry to…”
Jin Qi spoke first. “Miss Su is here.”
Doctor Wu immediately stopped talking. He turned to Su Xiaolu and smiled gently.
mThe others also greeted Su Xiaolu slightly.
Su Xiaolu took Zhou Zhi’s pulse first. There was nothing unusual. Although Zhou Zhi was hot, his body was more than twice as good as before.
Su Xiaolu transferred her Internal Breath into Zhou Zhi’s body and it was quickly absorbed.
“It hurts—”
In a daze, Zhou Zhi mumbled in his sleep.
Su Xiaolu could not find any problems with his pulse. The poison in his body was very stable and not out of order, but Zhou Zhi was in pain.
Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but lean down. She asked him softly, “Where does it hurt?”
