"Madam, the west wall has collapsed!"

The moment Renbao boarded the carriage and left the Marquis's residence, the purple clouds that had risen in the sky because of her arrival dissipated.

One wall collapsed without warning.

Madam Su, already heartbroken over the loss of twenty chests of gold and silver, brightened upon hearing this: "Go and repair it!"

The butler opened his mouth, then swallowed hard: "Madam, repairing this wall will probably cost several dozen taels of silver."

"A mere few dozen taels, surely my Marquis's mansion can afford it?" Old Madam Su's expression was unfriendly.

The steward said with difficulty, "I just checked the accounts. There were originally 10,000 taels of silver notes and 20 boxes of gold and silver treasures, which were converted into about 60,000 taels of silver. But these were all the dowry of the second madam, and the eldest young lady just moved them out of the mansion."

There are only one hundred taels of silver left in the household accounts, and you need fifty taels of ginseng to drink every day…”

After he finished speaking, he didn't dare to look up at Madam Su's face.

Nowadays, the Marquis's mansion probably has to carefully calculate every penny they spend.

Madam Su asked incredulously, "You mean, the money spent before all came from the second wife's family?"

The moment the butler nodded, Old Madam Su completely broke down.

"Go after the young lady quickly and bring her back! Please bring her back!"

Su Shuying had already taken all the silver back to the Su family, and then took Renbao to find food.

Dao Xuan and Miao Kong were just about to leave the Su residence.

Dao Xuan handed Ren Bao a talisman.

"Little Yama, this old Taoist priest is about to return to the Taoist temple. If you need to find me, just make a talisman and I will come to the capital immediately."

I haven't been home for days, and those brats are screaming with hunger. My life is so hard; I'm so old and still have to raise kids.

Dao Xuan looked at Ren Bao with great reluctance and couldn't help but complain.

Qingshan Temple has taken in many abandoned orphans, the oldest being only eleven or twelve years old and the youngest only three.

The abbot of Daoxuan Temple usually earned money by fortune-telling, and most of it was used to support these children.

Renbao stepped forward, grabbed one side of his beard with each hand, and looked at it from left to right.

Su Shuying, watching from the side, was terrified: "Renbao, you can't!"

"It's alright, as long as Little Yama is happy." Dao Xuan said cheerfully, and even moved his face forward a little so that Ren Bao could pinch him.

Renbao looked at his face, completely bewildered: "Xuanxuan, your life is not bitter at all. You have accumulated great merit and are very blessed. When you die, you will be reborn into a wealthy family in your next life."

Dao Xuan's mouth stretched even wider.

The Little King of Hell asserted that he was absolutely right.

"Little Yama, these are my Buddhist prayer beads. If you need to find me, just crush one of them." Miaokong handed a string of prayer beads to Renbao.

Renbao took it and tied it around his waist: "I know, Kongkong, you are all people with great merit. I remember you all, Little Yama!"

She patted her small chest hard, making a loud thumping sound.

Dao Xuan and Miao Kong were overjoyed. This trip down the mountain was definitely worthwhile!

Su Shuying was already tired of listening.

The abbot of Daoxuan Temple and Master Miaokong, whom all the powerful and influential people in the capital wanted to visit, were called "Xuanxuan" and "Kongkong" by her little baby Renbao.

The fact that the two experts were so engrossed in their work, treating Renbao like a revered statue, was something she couldn't understand at all.

"Sister, I'm hungry." Renbao pulled Su Shuying's hand and shook it back and forth.

Su Shuying snapped out of her daze: "Let's go, you little glutton."

Renbao meowed.

On the other hand, the steward was kicked out of the Su residence before he even got to touch the gate.

When Su Chengxiao learned that the Marquis's residence had no money, he froze for a moment before quickly saying, "Tangtang has a reward from the Empress, take it and use it first."

"What if..." Old Madam Su was unsure and dared not make a move, after all, Su Tang did not have any real talent.

Su Chengxiao's face darkened: "Mother, there are no 'what ifs'. Only if our family firmly believes that Tangtang is a little miracle doctor can we convince others."

Madam Su nodded. The arrow was already on the bowstring; there was no reason not to shoot it.

"I'll listen to you, Xiao'er."

Su Chengxiao walked along the corridor, feeling exceptionally relaxed. He felt like he was in charge of the entire mansion; it was wonderful.

Now that the second wife has established her own household, he no longer needs to go to great lengths to drive Renbao out.

Next, all we need to do is nurture Su Tang, this cash cow.

Su Chengxiao was very shrewd in his calculations, never considering that the truth would eventually come out and the fire would eventually burn, at which point it would be too late to recover.

Su Xuance was also doing accounts, the abacus clicking away.

In the past few days, he bought Renbao several shops and two large houses.

He bought these for Su Shuying last year.

He spends money like water, but he doesn't hesitate to spend it on his daughter.

sizzle~

A rustling sound came from the window, which Su Xuance initially ignored until a sticky feeling pressed against his feet.

He looked down and met the eyes of a snake as thick as a wrist.

Su Xuance was startled and reached out to grab the snake by its vital spot.

"Daddy, the snake has come out of its hole! Did you see it?" Renbao's cheerful voice came into the room, and she pushed open the door.

Su Xuance was about to snap the snake's neck, but after hearing Renbao's words, he remained silent for a moment and slowly released his grip.

When he saw the giant snake in Renbao's hand, which was taller and stronger than her, he was so shocked that he stood up abruptly from his wheelchair, pulled out a dagger, and stabbed at the snake.

"Renbao, don't move." Su Xuance's voice was tense, afraid that the giant snake would bite Renbao.

The little snake, which had quickly crawled to Renbao's side, trembled and said, "Little Yama, your father is so scary! He just grabbed me at my vital spot, he's trying to kill me!"

Didn't you say your father really liked snakes?

The large snake in Renbao's hand thrashed wildly, crying out, "Little Yama, your father is going to kill me! Help! Your father doesn't want to eat snake soup, does he? Waaaaah, my snake life is in danger!"

After Renbao had eaten and drunk her fill, she found a snake hole and let the snakes come home with her. She remembered that her father wanted to lure the snakes out of the hole.

But why do they all say that their father wants them?

"Daddy! They're all good snakes, don't kill them!" Renbao quickly said. After thinking for a moment, she added, "Daddy, is snake soup delicious?"

Big snake and little snake: !!!

"Little Yama, you want to eat snake soup? Or we'd better find a wall and smash our heads against it, then your father won't have to lift a finger." They were intertwined, their voices trembling.

Seeing that the two snakes didn't seem to be able to harm Renbao, Su Xuance strode forward, picked Renbao up, and said with lingering fear, "Where did these snakes come from?"

Renbao answered crisply, "Daddy said he was going to lure the snakes out of their holes! Renbao went to the snake holes to lure them out and gave them to you. Do you like them, Daddy? Aren't they cute?"

Despite his outwardly calm demeanor, Su Xuance's heart trembled. In reality, he was quite afraid of soft things, and his legs were even a little weak at this moment, but he was just forcing himself to stay upright.

He really "likes" this gift!

"Let them go back." Su Yuanze forced a smile. "I don't like snakes."

Two snakes: Okay, get out of here right now!

Renbao exclaimed, resting his chubby hand on his cheek, and sighed like a little adult, "I really don't understand you adults' thoughts. But, Daddy, is snake soup really delicious?"

The snake, which hadn't gone far, crawled even faster.

Su Xuance pinched Renbao's delicate nose, his tone helpless yet tinged with affection: "You!"

"Renbao!" Pei Yuru rushed into the study at this moment, her face covered in tears, startling the father and daughter.
