510 Su Chong Is the Martial Arts Top Scorer 2
Lin Yaoyao held Madam Chen’s arm and said softly, “Mother, I went.”
Madam Chen was surprised. Then, she reacted and smiled. “It’s good that you went.”
If she went, she would be able to see how dazzling her future husband was. She would be able to witness such a glorious moment with him. No one would have any regrets in the future.
In the future, it would also be a beautiful memory.
Madam Chen was relieved. Su Chong and Lin Yaoyao were already engaged, and the rest of the ceremony would be over before the new year.!!
Madam Chen only hoped that Lin Yaoyao could marry Su Chong quickly and the couple could have children as soon as possible.
“If only the white fish were cheaper.”
Madam Chen looked at Lin Yaoyao and sighed. If it was cheaper, she would buy one for her daughter to eat. If she was healthy, it would be better for her daughter’s future.
Lin Yaoyao smiled and said, “Mother, it’s not that magical. It’s just rumors.”
Madam Chen smiled and didn’t say anything. Even if it was a rumor, she believed it.
However, a fish cost thousands of taels, and she couldn’t buy it. It was useless even if she thought about it.
However, at night, Su Chong sent over a fish and said that it was a reward from the emperor.
Lin Pingsheng and Madam Chen both felt that it was too precious. Lin Pingsheng said calmly, “Su Chong, take it back and be filial to your parents. They’ve sacrificed a lot for you. Now that you’ve achieved something, you should be more filial to them.”
Madam Chen nodded in agreement. “That’s right. They all say that this fish is extremely good. Take it back and let them eat it so that they can nourish their bodies.”
Su Chong smiled and said, “Master, Mistress, my parents have fish to eat. Xiaolu has her way. I earned this myself. I want to give it to you.”
“Just accept it. I still have to go home. This fish can’ t be stored for long. Eat it while it’s still fresh. I’m leaving.”
Su Chong put down the fish and went back.
Madam Chen chased after him for a few steps, but she could not catch up to Su Chong.
She came back. “Dear, this…”
“Cook it and eat it. Don’t let him down.”
Lin Pingsheng said gently. Su Chong had his daughter in his heart. Lin Pingsheng was very happy. It would not be good to delay any longer. This was Su Chong’s heart. They could just accept it.
Madam Chen went to cook the fish happily. She was happier than anyone else about Su Chong’s intentions. She didn’t know if this godfish was useful. Most importantly, her daughter had eaten it.
That was enough.
The family finished a three-pound fish. Even the fish bones were fried and crispy for Lin Pingsheng.
It was unknown if the white fish had magical effects, but it was really delicious. In Madam Chen’s opinion, no fish could compare to this taste.
When Su Chong returned home, his family was waiting for him to eat.
Everyone ate quietly. Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao looked gratified. Now, what they cared about was Su Hua and Sun Baoqian’s marriage in November.
The days had calmed down. The only thing that was not calm was that the white fish was becoming more and more sensational in the capital.
Su Xiaolu did not buy fish. Zhou Zhi would send fish and so would Zhou Heng. In any case, they would eat it if they had it.
In early November, Su Sanlang had a fever.
Madam Zhao’s eyes were filled with worry. “He was fine before he fell asleep, but he suddenly had a fever in the middle of the night. His body is warm enough to fry eggs.”
Su Sanlang was not in good health. The entire family was mobilized, and everyone surrounded him.
Su Xiaoling put her arm around Madam Zhao’s shoulder and comforted her. “Mother, don’t worry. It’ll be fine.”
Su Xiaolu was administering acupuncture to Su Sanlang to control his temperature.
When it was almost dawn, Su Sanlang began to shout that his eyes hurt.
Madam Zhao’s eyes turned red with heartache.
The disability of Su Sanlang’s body was a permanent scar that could not be healed.
Su Xiaolu took out the prosthetic eye for Su Sanlang. Looking at the empty eye sockets, Su Xiaolu’s heart ached. She pricked the silver needles one by one before Su Sanlang gradually calmed down.
Su Xiaolu took out the medicine bottle, opened Su Sanlang’s mouth, and stuffed the medicine in.
After doing this, Su Xiaolu stopped and waited.
Su Sanlang woke up intermittently. When he did, he said gently, “Don’t worry, I’m fine…”
He wanted to comfort his family, but when everyone saw him like this, how could they not feel heartache and worry?
At dawn, Su Sanlang slowly cooled down.
When his body stopped heating up, he slept soundly.
For the next few days, Su Sanlang had intermittent high fevers. Madam Zhao stayed by his bed every day and had lost weight.
On the fourth day, Madam Zhao also felt hot.
Su Xiaoling was worried. She whispered to Su Xiaolu, “Xiaolu, are Father and Mother sick?”
Su Xiaoling was worried that it might be the plague.
Su Chong and Su Hua’s hearts tightened.
Su Xiaolu shook her head and said truthfully, “It’s not a plague. It’s the effect of the white fish.”
Su Xiaoling did not believe it. She said softly, “We ate it too, but we’re not having fevers.”
The whole family had eaten. Why did they not feel hot?
Su Chong and Su Hua had the same question.
Su Xiaolu explained, “It’s because Father and Mother have hidden illnesses. We don’t. This fish is good for the body. Those who are seriously ill and in pain feel it the most. Normal people will feel better because there’s nothing wrong with their bodies, so they usually won’t notice.”
Su Xiaolu explained seriously to let her family know that what she said was true.
Su Xiaoling and the others thought about it carefully. That was true.
Knowing that there was no problem, they were not so worried.
The day after Madam Zhao’s fever, Su Sanlang recovered.
Su Xiaolu checked his eyes. There were actually some granulations in them.
Even Su Sanlang found it unbelievable. He reached out to cover his eyes and said, “It’s incredible. My eyes seem to have grown a little. They’re not cold or painful anymore.”
His eye sockets were once so deep that his bones could be seen. Now that new flesh had grown out, he would not feel cold even if he did not wear a prosthetic eye.
This fish was so amazing.
Su Sanlang looked at Su Xiaolu eagerly and said, “Xiaolu, can you still buy this fish? Let your mother eat more. Her hands might get better.”
Su Sanlang was thinking about Madam Zhao’s hand. Madam Zhao had hurt her muscles and bones. She had lived so many years without strength. If his eyes could regrow, Madam Zhao’s hand could definitely recover.
Madam Zhao’s injuries were not as serious as his. Su Sanlang was thinking about whether Madam Zhao’s hand could recover if she ate more of the white fish.
Su Xiaolu shook her head and said, “Father, this fish has a miraculous effect, but it’s useless after a certain extent. If it’s useful, Zhou Zhi would have eaten it himself.”
As soon as Su Xiaolu said that, Su Sanlang understood.
That’s right. Zhou Zhi wanted to recover more than they did. If the fish was so useful, he would keep it for himself.
“The price of this fish will decrease in the future. At that time, our family can buy it often. Even if it’s not very useful, it can be used to nourish the body,” Su Xiaolu said to Su Sanlang. It was time for her to tell her family these things.
