General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Son-in-law

Su Xiaoxiao went to the outer courtyard to find Shen Chuan and handed him the medicine that the patient needed to take. She carefully instructed him on the dosage and usage.

"I can't trust others, so I can only ask you. Also, this is a secret recipe passed down by my ancestors. Remember to keep it a secret for me."

"Don't worry, I will."

Shen Chuan accepted the strange medicine.

"In return, these pancakes are for you." Su Xiaoxiao took out 50 Wife Cakes wrapped in bamboo leaves from her basket.

"Th-there's so much?" Shen Chuan was stunned. "I can't finish it!"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. "If you can't finish it, you can give them to your classmates to try. It's necessary to build a good relationship with your classmates."

Actually, it was meant to be given to the students of the academy to taste, but now that there was a good opportunity to present it as a favor, why not go with the flow?

In her previous life, she had always disliked her mother's way of doing things as a businesswoman who was too tactful. However, when she went from being the eldest daughter of a wealthy family to a village girl who did not have enough to eat, she understood that being a person who did not bow down to others… required capital.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "The academy is too far away. I might not come to the academy to set up a stall in the future."

"Ah…" Shen Chuan was disappointed.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. "However, if anyone wants to eat it, you can reserve it in advance. As long as you reach ten, I'll send it to you for free."

"In addition, we're considered friends. For your sake, I'll only charge nine copper coins for anything that the academy has reserved."

Wow, he didn't have to go out and the pancakes would be delivered. It was even cheaper by one copper coin. Thinking about it, it was really worth it!

Shen Chuan agreed. "I'll tell them now!"

"Don't forget the Wife Cakes!" Su Xiaoxiao reminded him.

"Oh, right, right, right!" Shen Chuan returned with a smile. He picked up a large pile of biscuits and left.

Su Xiaoxiao went to the main entrance of the academy.

Seeing her come out, the servant who had stopped her was dumbfounded.

"Sister!"

Su Ergou jogged over. "Have you seen Shen Chuan?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. "Yes, I gave him the cakes."

"Then we can go back," said Su Ergou.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. "There's no hurry. Let's go somewhere first."

The three-day appointment with the physician had arrived. She had to go to the physician's house to get the silver needles and herbs.

"Do you know Spring Willow Lane?" she asked Su Ergou.

"I do. It's not far from the market. From here to Spring Willow Lane, it's about… three to four miles?" Su Ergou was not sensitive to numbers. He had estimated seven to eight miles himself.

In fact, they had walked more than six miles.

Su Xiaoxiao's fat body was covered in sweat.

She had done enough exercise today…

Spring Willow Lane was an old alley. The limestone floor was cracked, and green moss grew in the cracks.

The two of them walked carefully and finally arrived at a door with a wooden sign with the surname Fu.

"Knock," said Su Xiaoxiao.

"Aye!"

Su Ergou was happy to be ordered around by his fat sister. He raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Is anyone there?"

He shouted.

After a while, the door was slowly pulled open from the inside.

"Who is it?"

An old voice asked impatiently.

"Eh?"

Su Xiaoxiao blinked and looked at her in surprise.

She also saw Su Xiaoxiao and her eyebrows twitched. "There's no dried plum today!"

That's right, the granny who opened the door for them was the old woman who sold dry goods at the market.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh. The town was so small… She met two "acquaintances" in a day.

"Wait, how did you know about my house?" the old woman asked with a frown.
