Ch 11: Basin Milk
Little Chou Chou gave them a big one right from the start.
That’s the crime of deceiving the Emperor!
Little Chou Chou doesn’t know what the crime of deceiving the Emperor is. The novels of the great Clan Leader Fun Niu all say that ancient emperors just liked people saying good things to deceive them; they were all silly.
【Keep dreaming, you can have anything in your dreams. 】
Little Chou Chou is really sleepy, but also very hungry.
【Basin milk, a large serving!】
The cub is going crazy, is there anyone who cares about the life and death of the cub!
Su Junyao and Old Marquis Su exchanged glances, this idea is wonderful!
Divine Lady enters dreams, spiritual stones warn the world, fish belly delivers messages…
Since ancient times, those in high positions have believed in these things, and even if they don’t believe, they are mostly afraid.
Su Junyao snatched Little Chou Chou back and rubbed her several times, rubbing the milk baby until her mouth turned down before releasing the cub under his father’s murderous gaze.
“Little Chou Chou is really Dad’s Little Lucky Star!”
He will go to the mountain to worship later. He prays for blessings in the Taoist temple for the Great Zhou. It’s not too much for the immortal to see his sincerity and warn him in a dream, right?
Little Chou Chou smacked her little mouth twice: 【I’m not your Little Lucky Star, Little Chou Chou is starving to death! Call me Little Death Star!】
【There’s no justice, I want basin milk, I want Mother!】
I won’t come out to play next time. Her dad and her grandpa don’t know how to take care of cubs.
【There is only a beautiful Mother in the world~ Little Chou Chou with a beautiful Mother is like a treasure~】
The Su Family father and son, who were just overjoyed, turned green and stared incredulously at the little white dumpling in the swaddling clothes.
Such a cute child, how can her singing be so terrible!
Old Marquis Su’s hands holding Little Chou Chou were trembling, and his head was buzzing with pain!
“This poor child is starving.” Old Marquis Su was not gentle with his son at all, kicking Su Junyao, “Go and find a wet nurse!”
Su Junyao dared to be angry but dared not speak out. After all, his father was still his father. He is the suave Young Lord, and doesn’t bother with the rough man. He reached out and took Little Chou Chou into his arms to appease Little Chou Chou, whose increasingly irritable singing became more and more terrible.
“Be good, they’ve already been asked to heat up the cow’s milk for you.”
So can the little ancestor shut up?
Just heard that her dad finally understood and considered her food problem, and quieted down.
Yawning a little, preparing to sleep for a while and wait for the arrival of the basin milk.
Su Junyao breathed a sigh of relief, finally coaxing her.
Drinking basin milk is better than being arranged to have a wet nurse with ulterior motives.
Little Chou Chou was fed and sent back to Yun Jinglan’s side, while Su Junyao was going to solve the Yunzhu Pagoda matter.
Leaving Jingxin Yuan, he saw Old Marquis Su standing under a tree with snow on his head waiting for him.
Without Little Chou Chou present, the Old Marquis didn’t have a good look on his face.
Glancing at the hurriedly arriving Su Junyao, he said coldly: “Wet Nurse Qin and Ningxiang are dead. Poisoned.”
“How could this be?” Su Junyao frowned, how could it be so hasty?
The people who were escorting the mother and daughter to the Government Office were Old Marquis’s confidants. As soon as the two arrived in front of the Government Office, they crushed the poison sac in their mouths, and died before the doctor had time to treat them.
“There are people behind them, the Wen Yang Marquis Family is afraid there will be more waves.”
Su Junyao’s heart tightened, with a strange sense of calm before the storm.
Old Marquis Su also said: “Don’t investigate Little Chou Chou’s wet nurse matter.”
“Why?”
Old Marquis Su opened his mouth, but didn’t know how to explain.
This matter is absurd. When he heard the report, he just wanted to scold his old wife for being shameless. If she doesn’t like this child, she can just ignore it. The Wen Yang Marquis Family can afford to raise a maid.
◈◈◈
She insisted on trying to please Yun Shi, saying that she liked the child and hired a wet nurse.
Yang Shi was originally a courtesan, who was redeemed and entered a good family, but her body had been ruined by taking medicine since she was a child. Her own child died after eating her milk, and her husband kicked her out when he found out.
She originally wanted to use the job of being a wet nurse to enter someone else’s mansion and seduce the master to become a concubine, but the price was too low and Wen Shi took a fancy to her.
That’s how this absurd thing happened.
Su Junyao clenched his hands into fists, with nowhere to vent his anger, and finally slapped the tree trunk next to him.
The snow fell from the branches, chilling both of them.
Old Marquis Su patted his son’s shoulder and shook his head helplessly: “Your mother worked hard to raise you three brothers, and then suffered a serious injury. Our Wen Yang Marquis Family owes her, so be it.”
“When Yun Shi is out of confinement, let your mother rest, and hand over all the affairs in the Mansion to her to manage. I’m also getting old. After this storm passes, you should take over as Heir.”
Su Junyao is thirty-six years old this year. Others have already become Marquis, but he is still squatting in the position of Heir because his old father is still healthy.
At first, he felt a little uncomfortable when his father mentioned this matter.
“Dad, if you have any uncomfortable places in your body, you must tell your child!”
He looked at his dad with a hint of entrusting his orphans.
He almost imagined the grand drama of his dad supporting his body to pave the way for him, sweeping away obstacles, and directly ascending to the position of Marquis.
Old Marquis Su had already begun to cultivate his kind temperament, but was ruined by his eldest son’s words.
He slapped him on the back of the head, really wanting to knock out his brains!
“You bastard, Little Chou Chou knows to wish me a long life, I’ve raised you for so many years and you’re actually hoping I die?”
“You are really a filial son!”
“When I die, you can become Marquis, right? I’m telling you, keep dreaming! Just honestly be your eternal Young Lord!”
Old Marquis Su had already left, trembling with anger, and turned back to spit on Su Junyao’s face: “I spit!”
Su Junyao wiped the saliva off his face, relieved.
With his dad’s full of energy, it’s no problem to live another twenty years.
Thus, the father and son broke up unhappily again.
Su Junyao angrily called Chen He to prepare the horse, and went directly to Qingyun Temple.
Outsiders are speculating whether Su Junyao has been Young Lord for too long and is anxious to become Marquis.
Three days passed in a flash, and the people of the Capital suddenly saw the Young Lord of Wen Yang Marquis Family with disheveled hair riding a horse into the Imperial Palace.
Capital City People: Could it be that he’s really crazy?
Emperor Jingming thought the same thing when he saw Su Junyao for the first time.
This kid must be crazy, right?
When Emperor Jingming was still the Crown Prince, Su Junyao was his study companion. After he ascended the throne, Su Junyao became his right-hand man. Although the two are monarch and minister, it can be said that they grew up colluding with each other.
Emperor Jingming knows Su Junyao too well. If nothing major happened, how could this narcissistic dandy turn himself into this virtue?
“Dear Minister, let’s discuss anything, don’t be impulsive!”
Su Junyao’s face was solemn: “Your Majesty, I have an urgent matter to report!”
Emperor Jingming frowned: “What is it?”
“This matter is urgent, but the situation is special. Only if Your Majesty forgives me for my crime, will I dare to speak.” Su Junyao knelt down and kowtowed three times, bowing and daring not to get up.
The Emperor frowned, instantly knowing the seriousness of the matter, and personally helped Su Junyao up, “I and Dear Minister have been close since childhood. Today, I will exempt you from the crime of offending me. Dear Minister, please speak freely!”
