Chapter 728: 728 Anonymous Divine Doctor 2

He knew Miss Tao’s thoughts just by listening to her.

She didn’t hide it from him, “Miss Tao knew that I saved the poor business of the Rich Source Tavern, and hoped that if there were any recipes, she would want me to sell them to her first. Moreover, she might genuinely admire me.”

“Oh,” Xiao Yuchuan nodded, “It is necessary to be cautious.”

“I understand.”

The carriage stopped in front of Tao Mansion. Seeing Su Qingyue, the gatekeeper immediately approached, “Miss Su, you’re finally here. Recently, our young lady ordered me to keep an eye on the passers-by every day, just hoping for you to show up!”

Seeing Xiao Yuchuan, the gatekeeper asked, “This young master is?”

“He is my husband.” Su Qingyue was still staying with the Xiao Family, and even though there was no deed of sale to restrain her, that was her nominal status.

“So it’s the husband from the Xiao Family. Please come in, both of you.” The gatekeeper glanced at the dog lying on the flatbed cart, “This must be your pet dog.”

“Yes,” she nodded. She wouldn’t explain to others that Dazamao was actually a wolf.

“Your dog looks really nice.”

Su Qingyue said, “Let it stay on the cart and take care of it, but don’t let anyone near it.”

“Sure,” the gatekeeper nodded.

Dazamao was about to jump off the cart, but after being scolded by Su Qingyue, it sat back down obediently.

“Wait here,” Su Qingyue instructed it.

It whined once and lay back down.

Su Qingyue knew it had understood, so she allowed the gatekeeper to take the horse-drawn cart to the backyard.

She and Xiao Yuchuan then walked towards the Tao family’s living room. The large cloth bag for the dried fern and the wine jar were both carried by Xiao Yuchuan.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The courtyard of the Tao Mansion was extensive, with bluestone slabs on the ground. A few clusters of bamboos and rocks were arranged beautifully amidst the crevices of the piled artificial hills, and pavilions with carved beams and painted rafters were scattered throughout the flowers and trees, reflecting the style of a wealthy family.

The maid led them across the yard and into the living room of the Tao family.

“Please take a seat, both of you. My young lady has gone to the restaurant, and the housekeeper has sent someone to inform her.” The maid then withdrew.

Su Qingyue didn’t hold back and sat down on a chair.

She watched as Xiao Yuchuan put the cloth bag and wine jar next to her, then sat down in the chair beside her.

Their seats were side by side, with a tea table in the middle.

The maid quickly brought in a teapot and two cups, pouring two cups of tea with reverence.

“Wife, I can see that the servants of Tao Mansion are very polite to you.” Xiao Yuchuan picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Su Qingyue.

She took it and drank a mouthful.

Speaking respectfully, the maid said, “My young lady has informed us that Miss Su is a VIP guest, so naturally we should treat her well.”

Su Qingyue took the teacup from Chuan and sipped the tea.

Xiao Yuchuan also picked up the other cup to drink the tea. The taste was slightly astringent, but with a refreshing aroma as it went down his throat. It was good tea.

Due to their poor financial condition, he never drank tea at home. Sometimes when selling goods, he would sip inferior tea at other people’s houses, but he had never tasted such a fine tea. However, since this was someone else’s mansion, he didn’t show any reaction on his face, so as not to be rude in front of others.

After about the time it took to drink a cup of tea, a fiery-red figure rushed into the living room, followed by a crisp, pleasant voice, “Xiao Yue, you’re finally here!”

The woman was dressed in a red skirt, wearing a purple jade hairpin. She had an extremely beautiful face – red lips, white teeth, and eyebrows like ink. Her charm made her absolutely beautiful.
