After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 309 Granny Liu's Deceitful Act
"I'm sorry, Second Brother misspoke just now. I apologize to you. As long as you and Pei Yuan have reached an agreement, that's fine."

Su Xiaoxiao could tell that her second brother, Su Ping'an, was thinking of her.

At this moment, Xiao Bao had no idea what the two were discussing, and instead, he hugged Su Xiaoxiao's neck more and more tightly.

"Mom, I want to eat candy."

Su Xiaoxiao quickly called her maid to bring some candy to Xiaobao. "Here you go, Xiaobao, be good!"

With a candy in his mouth, Xiao Bao happily shook his little head, looking very cute.

Su Pingan couldn't help but come over and pat Xiao Bao's head, "This child is quite cute."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded.

Although she had temporarily reunited with her second brother, Su Ping'an, Su Xiaoxiao was still quite happy. At least it showed that the original owner was not alone in this world and that she still had family.

Su Ping'an is currently a deputy general in the military, and he's doing quite well.

Although he is not yet married, he already has his own residence in the capital.

"Xiaoxiao, it's not that your second brother is criticizing you, but it's not appropriate for you to be living at Pei Yuan's house before you're even married. I think you should stay at my place instead. We've already recognized each other as siblings."

"This……"

After hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao felt a little conflicted, but she was still reluctant to leave Pei Yuan's place.

It's not that she was having a great time fighting with Pei Yuan's aunt here; it's mainly because this isn't really her own home. She has to rely entirely on Pei Yuan to make a living, or to put it bluntly, she's being kept by him. So, she doesn't really feel very confident.

Living with my second brother would be a wonderful thing, as it would allow the family to reunite.

"Hmm, Second Brother, let me think about it some more."

As Su Xiaoxiao said this, she actually enjoyed the meal quite a bit.

At least that's how Su Xiaoxiao felt, as she kept putting food on her second brother Su Ping'an's plate at the dinner table.

While eating, Su Pingan sighed, "These two children are so adorable, it's a pity their father died so young..."

Before he could finish speaking, Da Bao suddenly spoke up. "Uncle, our father isn't dead, Liu Xiaozhuang isn't dead..."

Everyone present was stunned when these words were spoken.

Su Ping'an quickly looked at Su Xiaoxiao, "Is this true? Or is it just childish talk?"

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't hide it any longer, "Yes. It's true, Liu Xiaozhuang came back from the front line a few days ago."

"what?"

Su Xiaoxiao was also helpless. "I moved my whole family to Beijing to hide from him, but I always feel that I can't keep it a secret for long, because Liu Xiaozhuang will definitely not let go until he finds us."

Su Xiaoxiao is right about that.

At this moment, in the Liu family home, Grandma Liu stood at home, her back now much straighter.

Liu Xiaozhuang's return certainly gave her support. She pointed at him and said, "You should have brought the two children back the day you went. Go quickly and bring them back; they are all of the Liu family bloodline!"

At this moment, Granny Liu's bloodline awakened. She hadn't said this when she was discussing selling the child with the slave trader.

"Okay, Mother, I'll go right away."

At this moment, Granny Wang appeared at Granny Liu's house. "Granny Liu, I really can't stand it anymore. You old woman, all you did back then was plotting how to sell the children. Now, you still have the nerve to say those two children belong to your Liu family. You're shameless!"

Liu Xiaozhuang, who was listening nearby, was very puzzled. He quickly asked his mother, Granny Liu, "What's going on?"

Granny Liu angrily shouted at Granny Wang, "You old hag, what business is it of yours what we do? Get out of here! This is none of your concern!"

"Hmph, just wait for your retribution, Granny Liu. Don't think that just because your second son is back you have someone to rely on. Su Xiaoxiao isn't someone to be trifled with anymore. Do you think she's still the little widow you sold to slave traders?" Hearing this, Liu Xiaozhuang immediately felt uneasy.

"What happened? Mother, did you really do that?"

Grandma Liu blinked nervously and kept pushing Grandma Wang towards the house.

"Get out of here and stop talking nonsense in our house, do you hear me?"

Grandma Liu pushed Grandma Wang out, but Liu Xiaozhuang seemed a little uneasy at this moment.

He looked at his mother suspiciously and asked, "Mother, did you really do that?"

"No, no. I'm not that wicked."

Although she felt guilty, Grandma Liu still chased Liu Xiaozhuang out and told him to hurry up and pick up the two children.

Liu Xiaozhuang went to Su Xiaoxiao's house, only to find that he was too late and had come to nothing.

Only Su Lie, who was looking after the house, and his grandfather Su Daqiang remained at home.

The two of them knew nothing when asked, and of course, even if they did know, they wouldn't tell him.

Having no other option, Liu Xiaozhuang had no choice but to go home dejectedly.

He truly hadn't expected that Su Xiaoxiao and her entire family would run away. They disappeared so quickly—didn't she have any feelings for him at all?

Liu Xiaozhuang sat in front of Su Xiaoxiao's house for a long, long time, unable to shake off his grief.

Inside General Pei Yuan's residence.

During the meal, Su Xiaoxiao also took the opportunity to inquire about her second brother, "Second brother, you're quite handsome, are you married yet?"

At this point, a hint of shyness appeared on Su Ping'an's face, as if he was still a little embarrassed.

"Ok!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao quickly asked, "Really? Second Brother, you're quite fast."

“A man should naturally settle down and start a family. Your second sister-in-law has already had two children, a boy and a girl, who are both teenagers.”

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao quickly asked, "What kind of person is Second Sister-in-law?"

Su Pingan replied seriously, "She's quite gentle, a well-bred lady, knowledgeable and reasonable, and she's raised her children well. I don't need to worry about anything at home."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao was even happier for Su Ping'an.

It's clear that Su Ping'an cherishes his wife very much, and they have a very good relationship.

Su Xiaoxiao was also quite happy for her second brother after dinner.

They went to the courtyard to cool off, and when Su Ping'an saw the bow and arrows in the yard, he couldn't help but feel a little itchy to try his hand at them.

"I heard you can also shoot arrows, little sister. How about we have a contest?"

He handed the bow and arrows to Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Come on, let your second brother see how good your archery is. I heard you even beat Lin Tianyang, that sharpshooter, in the army camp?"

Su Xiaoxiao said shyly, "No, I still lost to him in the end. But I do know a little bit, if you don't mind, Second Brother, we can have a competition."

Su Xiaoxiao was being modest when she said that.

Su Pingan burst into laughter.
