Chapter 104 Su Xiaoxiao Stays Out All Night

Su Xiaoxiao was pulled aside by Qian Musheng, and only then did she calm down somewhat.

"Leave this to me. I'll take action tonight."

When they were alone, Qian Musheng said this to Su Xiaoxiao.

"Then what can I do?"

Su Xiaoxiao quickly asked.

"Just keep watch for me outside."

Qian Musheng then began to revert to his unserious and carefree demeanor.

"Will you have enough time to act tonight?"

Su Xiaoxiao was quite anxious. Qian Musheng said, "I just inquired and heard that Master Huang's wedding is the day after tomorrow, so he probably won't be able to ruin the person so soon."

Su Xiaoxiao was relieved. That night, Qian Musheng changed into his night clothes and quickly sneaked into the backyard of Master Huang's house.

He rescued the woman and later learned that she was a street singer who lived there with her father.

Su Xiaoxiao took the woman and Qian Musheng back to the woman's home and gave them ten taels of silver. Of course, this was Qian Musheng's money, whether it was for travel expenses or money for the journey, it was to let them leave this place and live a better life.

The father and daughter thanked Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng, and then quickly left this troublesome place with the money.

To avoid being visited by Master Huang again, the father and daughter were from out of town and had been singing for a while, but they ended up being targeted by the wealthy Master Huang who loved watching operas.

He insisted on marrying this girl, who was not even eighteen years old, while Mr. Huang was over fifty, old enough to be her grandfather.

Not only would the woman's father not agree to this marriage, but even Su Xiaoxiao herself would not agree.

However, the woman was lucky; Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng intervened in time and rescued them.

Su Xiaoxiao felt that she had really done a great thing this time, which could be considered as accumulating good karma for herself.

She returned home the next morning.

Su Xiaoxiao did a good deed this time and barely slept all night.

She was very excited, feeling as majestic as a chivalrous hero in an ancient martial arts film.

As soon as he got home, he was given a severe scolding by Sanlang.

"Su Xiaoxiao, you're something else, now you've learned to stay out all night."

Saburo's eyes were dark, indicating he hadn't rested well and probably hadn't slept all night.

"I waited for you all night, and you said you weren't going home without even telling me. You're a married woman with two children..."

Saburo looked rather aggrieved, which was kind of cute.

She was pouting, looking very unhappy.

Su Xiaoxiao heard him say things as if she were his wife, had two children with him, and hadn't come home all night.

If that's really the case, she does seem to be in the wrong.

But then I thought, wait a minute, what's our relationship? Why are you controlling me like this?

"Look at you, you're getting cocky! I'll say it again, I'm not your wife!"

Upon hearing Su Xiaoxiao's words, Sanlang immediately fell silent.

“I was just worried about you because of the kids. You said you didn’t come home last night, and the kids were terrified.”

"Tell me, where did you go, and who were you with?"

"See?" Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "They're treating me like a criminal again."

"It's nothing, I was with Qian Musheng last night..."

“You two were together last night…” Saburo looked terrible; he seemed on the verge of a breakdown.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't care about anything else and explained it to him directly.

"We were together last night to rescue people."

She then recounted the story of how Master Huang forcibly abducted a woman, describing it in a very fantastical way, but it was indeed a very thrilling and exciting tale.

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao did not participate in the rescue process.

Only Qian Musheng knows how he managed to save that poor woman.

It turns out that last night, Su Xiaoxiao was keeping watch outside for Qian Musheng, while Qian Musheng secretly sneaked into the Huang family compound alone.

Qian Musheng first threw a small stone, called a Flying Yellow Stone, specifically to detect whether there were any traps or ambushes ahead.

If someone in this place keeps a wolfhound, they can detect it by looking through these stones.

Qian Musheng arrived at the back garden of the Huang residence. He deliberately chose to walk in the shadows and finally found the house where the captured woman was being held.

He didn't even wear a mask, let alone care that covering his face would prevent others from seeing him. But he didn't do that, and Qian Musheng actually regretted it.

Upon hearing this, Sanlang learned that Su Xiaoxiao had gone to rescue someone with Qian Musheng last night, and that the whole process was both thrilling and exciting. He sighed.

"Oh, I know. You didn't sleep all night. I'll make you a bowl of noodles first, then you can eat and get some sleep."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect that her jealous wife would suddenly become so understanding, and that her attitude would change so quickly.

"Yeah, we just went to rescue people..."

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to continue explaining, but Sanlang smiled at her and went to the kitchen to cook noodles for her.

Sanlang had no idea how to cook noodles, so Su Xiaoxiao quickly stopped him.

"Alright, I'll do it. You guys haven't had breakfast either."

Su Xiaoxiao cooked noodles with minced meat sauce and also made a side of pickled white radish. Her cooking skills are getting better and better, and the two children ate it with relish.

Especially the noodles topped with chunks of lean and fatty meat, the aroma alone was enough to make one's mouth water. Su Xiaoxiao really thought that the noodles with meat sauce she made this time were quite delicious.

Saburo couldn't help but swallow hard; his earlier unhappiness vanished instantly.

The aroma of wheat combined with the flavor of meat in the noodles is simply irresistible.

Su Xiaoxiao even broke off two cloves of garlic for Sanlang, saying, "Eat up!"

As Saburo ate, his eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

"What's wrong? Did the spice make you feel hot?"

Su Xiaoxiao quickly asked Sanlang.

"No, I just feel like what I'll do if I can't eat noodles this delicious again in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him in anger.

"What are you thinking? I'll make it for you as long as you want to eat it."

Upon hearing this, Sanlang immediately wiped away his tears. Da Bao and Xiao Bao also came over, rushed into his arms, and very considerately wiped away his tears.

The three of them cried like actors, making Su Xiaoxiao wonder if her noodles were a little too fragrant, causing the three of them to be so sad.

"Hey, I'm not dead yet. I'll make it for you whenever you want to eat."

"Yes, make noodles with minced meat sauce like this. Mother, you're the best."

The meal was both funny and sad. Su Xiaoxiao didn't know why Sanlang was acting like a little wife, always crying, but seeing his pitiful eyes, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel moved.
