Wang Er took the bun with envy on his face. "It's great that you can stay in Shangjing City. Why don't I have the luck to recognize a grandfather? Why don't you ask Mr. Zeng to recognize me as his grandson too? It would be great to have a granddaughter and a grandson."

Su Qin knew that he had difficulty finding a job, which was easy to understand. Just think about it, how could a person without any skills, identity, or temporary residence permit find a good job in the capital, unless he worked illegally, but working illegally had no security.

She joked, "I can take care of grandpa, cook for him, wash his clothes, and make new clothes for him. What use are you other than being able to eat?"

Wang Er raised his arms in dissatisfaction and patted his own arms vigorously: "I have plenty of strength and can work. Hiring me alone can replace three people."

Su Qin: "There's no farming in the city, so hiring a strong and capable worker is useless. Grandpa is a scholar, so the servants we hire must be smart and literate, and the guards we hire must know martial arts, and you don't know anything."

Wang Er lowered his head in frustration: "Is it true that I can't stay here if I'm useless?"

Su Qin looked at Wang Er thoughtfully: "Do you really want to stay?"

Wang Er nodded: "Yes, I don't have any burdens on myself, and I can still find a good way out if I stay. But if I go back, what else can I do besides farming?"

Su Qin thought for a moment and said, "Then you wait a little longer. I'll think of a solution when I see grandpa."

Wang Er's eyes instantly lit up: "Really?"

Su Qin nodded: "Really."

She wanted Wang Er to stay, but it was not a rash decision. She didn't know anyone else in Shangjing City except Mr. Zeng and Zhao Liangchen. She didn't know whether Zhao Liangchen could be trusted, so she needed a helper she could trust.

Wang Er is a good candidate. First of all, he has no family, so he and she can rely on each other.

Secondly, he was a good person, and they were friends through thick and thin, so there was no need to worry about backstabbing;

Third, Wang Er is tall and strong. If she finds someone to teach him some skills, he can protect her in the future.

The two men discussed it, and Wang Er was full, so he left happily.

When Su Qin heard that the Xu family had stopped crying, she took her things and went to their tent.

The Xu family, who usually smiled enthusiastically when they saw Su Qin, all smiled very reluctantly. Su Qin could tell at a glance that they were not in a good mood, but they did not say anything, and she did not ask any more questions. Instead, she opened the oil paper package and handed it over: "Meat buns, eat them while they are hot."

Madam Xu forced an unpleasant smile and said, "We've eaten today, thanks to you. The food we've been given is enough for us to eat. How could we ask for your food again? Just keep it for yourself."

Su Qin: "Wang Er and I are full. This is what we left for you. Eat it quickly. There is also braised pork here. Brother Feng is not in good health, so he needs to eat more to replenish his body."

When Xu Feng's health was mentioned, the Xu family members' faces instantly turned ugly, and their eyes were all red. Only Xu Feng silently took a bun and smiled at Su Qin: "I'll eat it, thank you, I haven't eaten meat buns for a long time."

Seeing the expressions of the Xu family, Su Qin understood that Xu Feng's body might not be able to hold on any longer. She quickly opened the box she had brought with her. "Here are ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, and something I don't recognize. They should all be for nourishing the body. These were sent by Elder Zeng through Lord Zhao. I'm in good health now and don't need them. I'll give them to Brother Feng to nourish his body."

The Xu family looked at the supplements in astonishment. They had never thought that Su Qin could come up with such precious things. Xu Feng was the first to react. His face darkened a little, and he said to Su Qin very seriously: "Miss Su, I can't take this. We can accept the kindness of eating a little food, but we can't afford such precious medicinal materials. Besides..."

He paused and continued, "Besides, my body can't be restored by just eating a few supplements. You should take the things back."

"No!"

Before Su Qin could persuade him after he finished speaking, Madam Xu rushed over and hugged the box in her arms. She looked a little embarrassed, and her eyes were red as she looked at Su Qin: "Miss Su, thank you, I accept these things. I will repay your kindness in this life even if I have to work like a slave. If I can't repay you in this life, I will repay you in the next life."

"Mother......"

Xu Feng wanted to stop Madam Xu, but Madam Xu suddenly turned around and looked at Xu Feng with bloodshot eyes: "Feng'er, I want you to live. No matter who I owe you a favor, as long as there is a way to keep you alive, even if it means I have to beg for money to treat your illness, I am willing to do so. If you die, I will not live either."

Xu Feng was frightened by Mrs. Xu's excitement and a bit crazy, and he couldn't say no.

Xu Chunshan also stood up with red eyes and bowed to Su Qin: "Miss Su, I thank you for your great kindness. From now on, you will be the benefactor of our entire family. We will all be at your disposal."

Xu Yunguo knelt directly in front of Su Qin: "Yes, Sister Su, I will be your maid in the future and serve you for the rest of my life to repay your kindness."

Su Qin hurriedly stood up and helped Xu Chunshan and Xu Yunguo up: "Uncle Xu, Yunguo, please don't be like this. We have been friends in need for a long time. You have taken care of me a lot. I treat you as family. I don't need you to do anything. Besides, these things are not prepared by me for you. If you want to thank someone, thank Mr. Zeng. I believe he didn't give you these to repay you. He just wanted Brother Feng to recover and pass the college entrance examination. As long as Brother Feng passes, it will be a repayment to Mr. Zeng."

In her previous life, her parents died early due to illness. At that time, she was still young and watched her parents suffer from illness. She could only go to relatives' homes one by one, kneeling down to borrow money and begging them to save her parents. At that time, she didn't care about her face or self-esteem. She just wanted her parents to live. Unfortunately, the money was borrowed, but the illness was not cured, and they passed away one after another.

Seeing the Xu family desperate to keep Xu Feng alive, she thought of her own parents and her eyes became red. She looked at Xu Feng with tears in her eyes, "Brother Feng, don't give up on yourself. Your survival is the most important thing for your family. Without you, they will only have pain in their lives. Willpower is very important. You must have confidence in yourself. If you give up on yourself, no matter what medicine or supplement you take, it will be of no use."

Xu Feng felt very painful when he saw his family members who had been so humble for him. He didn't want to be a burden to his family, but Su Qin was right. If he died, his family would be even more miserable. He patted Mrs. Xu, who was already crying and said, "Mother, don't cry. Your son will not die easily."

Then he looked at Su Qin and said solemnly: "Miss Su, I cannot express my gratitude enough. I accept these herbs. No matter whether I can pass the high school entrance examination or not, I will find a way to return them."

Su Qin burst into laughter and said, "Okay, I'll wait."

Not wanting to disturb the Xu family anymore, Su Qin walked out of their tent. The autumn wind outside helped to relieve some of the depression in her heart. She had lived a new life and could no longer be controlled by the emotions of her previous life.

She looked at Shangjing City in the distance and began to plan her future life. She didn't know whether the Su family would be acquitted in the end. After all their troubles, the Su family should not die. Whether they would be convicted or not depended on whether King Liang was willing to let him go. After all, King Liang's goal from the beginning was to get her father away from the Ministry of Households. King Liang would not let go easily if he did not achieve this goal. King Liang and his faction had not put forward a scapegoat until now, just because they wanted to try.

If no other suspects were found, Su Jijing might still be convicted and exiled. If she was really exiled, she didn't know whether she should go with them. According to blood relationship, she should go with the Su family. As an orphan, it was not suitable for her to live alone. But psychologically, she didn't want to go with them. Although she wanted to lie down and be raised by someone, she also had to choose an environment where she could lie down.
