508 Crazily Buying Fish 2
Seeing this, Su Xiaoling could only take it back. However, she pinched Su Xiaolu’s cheek and instructed her, “Then put it away first. You must tell me when you need it.”
Money was far less important to Su Xiaoling than her family.
100,000 taels was a lot of money. She would never be able to spend it all in her entire life. She was already very satisfied with life. She felt that it was very worth it to buy the enjoyment of life.
Su Xiaolu smiled and nodded.
She was so happy.
Meanwhile, in the main courtyard.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were calculating. Su Sanlang said, “One fish costs three to four hundred taels. If we buy two a day, it’ll be seven hundred taels. That’s 21,000 taels a month. After eating for two months, Xiaolu should be tired of it. Thank goodness.”
Madam Zhao said, “Don’t you feel sorry that we’re spending all this money on fish?”
Su Sanlang smiled and hugged Madam Zhao tightly. He said, “It’s one thing for me to feel sorry for the money, but it’s another for our daughter. Xiaolu has been sensible since she was young. She never wants anything. It’s rare that there’s something she likes and our family can afford it. What’s wrong with satisfying her?”
Su Sanlang still felt sorry when he thought of Su Xiaolu when she was young.
Su Xiaolu was here to repay her kindness. She had been since she was young. Before she could speak, she knew how to cry when she felt sorry for her family.
After she grew up and learned how to walk, she would also do many things to help her family. She would distribute the meat to her brothers and sister, help with work, and take care of Su Chong and Su Hua. All of this could not be measured with money.
In Su Sanlang’s heart, as long as they could afford it, he was willing to give Su Xiaolu anything she wanted.
Madam Zhao was also very touched. She leaned against Su Sanlang’s chest and said softly, “Sanlang, to be honest, Xiaolu is very different to me. I feel that all my good luck was brought about by her. She’s so sensible and good. Sometimes, I wonder how lucky I am to be her mother.”
“Besides, I have a feeling that she has her reasons. It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t say anything. As long as she wants to do it, I’m willing to support her.”
Madam Zhao sighed. Su Sanlang’s words reminded her of many things about Su Xiaolu when she was young.
In her opinion, no matter how much money there was, there was no warmth. Only when it could be used on family members would there be warmth. Only then would it be meaningful.
“Xiaolu is a good child. In the blink of an eye, she’s already grown up.”
Perhaps it was because the older they got, the easier it was for them to sigh, especially when they watched their children grow up and start their own families. They would always think of the old times, those happy and bitter times.
The couple snuggled tightly, their bodies and hearts leaning against each other because they would be together for the rest of their lives.
With more banknotes, Su Xiaolu bought more fish without worries. She bought almost half of the fish in the capital.
After Su Chong’s martial arts examination ended, there were fish to eat every day.
Su Chong had obtained first place in all the assessments, but because the white fish had recently appeared in the capital, not many people discussed him.
The palace examination was set for October 15th. The final results would only be determined after the palace examination.
During this period of time, Su Chong had also resumed his training.
Su Xiaolu went to the Wisdom King’s Residence every day. After Zhou Zhi had a few fevers, his body calmed down.
When he saw Su Xiaolu, he smiled at her. He reached out gently and Su Xiaolu took his pulse.
Zhou Zhi asked softly, “Xiaolu, how is it?”
Su Xiaolu retracted her hand and said, “There’s nothing unusual.”
Zhou Zhi’s legs had grown half an inch of flesh and there was nothing wrong with his body. Zhou Zhi’s gaze was complicated. He did not speak, but Su Xiaolu knew what he was thinking.
Most of the fish in the capital had been eaten by Zhou Zhi. Almost all the white fish that had been fished up had been taken by Zhou Zhi.
However, it seemed to have reached a certain level of saturation. There were no more changes to Zhou Zhi’s legs.
“Xiaolu, how is your father’s health?”
After a long silence, Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and asked.
Su Xiaolu replied truthfully, “His body is normal. There are no symptoms yet.”
Su Sanlang had not yet shown signs of fever. Perhaps he had not eaten enough fish.
Zhou Zhi’s gaze was deep. He swallowed and said in a low voice, “Xiaolu, do you think there are other fish in the sea?”
If the white fish had such a miraculous effect, could there be other fish in the sea?
Actually, Zhou Zhi wanted to ask if his leg could grow back.
“Maybe there are.”
Su Xiaolu knew what he was thinking. In the past, she would only answer that it was impossible for Zhou Zhi to regenerate his limbs. However, now that the world had undergone some subtle changes and the spiritual energy was starting to surge, she felt that it was not impossible.
However, it was not so easy to regenerate broken limbs. The white fish could only make his legs grow half an inch.
Zhou Zhi closed his eyes.
Su Xiaolu stood up and said, “I’ll go home first. Call me if anything happens.”
Zhou Zhi nodded and smiled gently at Su Xiaolu. “Okay, thank you, Xiaolu.”
Su Xiaolu looked into Zhou Zhi’s deep eyes and left without saying anything else.
Zhou Zhi sat quietly at the table. He placed his hands on the wooden wheelchair and rubbed the handle with his fingers. It had been a long time since he wore that cold steel frame. If it was fake, it was fake.
He wanted a pair of real legs. In the past, he clearly understood that it was wishful thinking. But now, his broken limbs have regenerated. Nothing was impossible.
The white fish came from the deep sea. Was there something else in the deep sea?
Even in the face of the fear of the unknown, he still wanted to try.

Su Xiaolu took the fish home. In just a few days, the price of the white fish doubled again.
Some people said that their eyes were originally cloudy, but after eating the white fish a few times, they could actually see clearly.
Some people said that their waists were injured. Every time the seasons changed, it would hurt terribly. After eating the white fish a few times, it actually stopped hurting.
The white fish had become a godfish that was hard to come by.
Su Xiaolu had spent two thousand taels of silver on two fish today. This was on account of her many days of business. The price of the white fish had to increase again.
Su Xiaolu carried the fish home. She had already decided not to buy any more.
For the past half a month, she had eaten a few fish every day. She felt that the white fish was just the beginning.
The white fish had caused a stir in the capital.
During dinner, Su Xiaolu said, “Father, mother, eat more. There won’t be any fish tomorrow. I won’t buy this fish in the future.”
For some reason, everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Perhaps it was because this was the last meal, but it was especially delicious.
After dinner, Su Hua called Su Xiaolu back to her room. He looked at Su Xiaolu and said, “Xiaolu, tell me the truth. Are you really not buying fish in the future?”
Su Xiaolu nodded. “I’m really not buying anymore.”
Su Hua pondered for a moment before saying to Su Xiaolu, “Xiaolu, is this fish really as amazing as the rumors say?”
