The sooner she did, the more proud he would be.

Now that she had figured it out, she stopped feeling sad.

Life hadn't changed either.

It was time to go home again. Su Xiaolu went to the shop early to help.

Seeing her coming alone, Madam Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Where's your master? Isn't he coming back today?"

Su Xiaolu replied calmly, "Master left. He left two days ago. He said that I can finish my apprenticeship."

Madam Zhao was stunned for a moment before she reacted. "That's good too. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to thank him. I think he's not used to it. It's good to be free."

Old Wu was a man of few words and was relatively cold to others.

He only doted on her younger daughter. Only Su Xiaolu could pluck his beard, no one else could.

He had taught Su Xiaolu all his medical skills, but Su Xiaolu did not have a single banquet to thank her master.

Madam Zhao felt that it was a pity. She could only thank him in her heart and wish him safety.

"Master doesn't care about that. When he's free occasionally in the future, he'll still come back to test me."

Su Xiaolu smiled and said.

When Madam Zhao heard this, she also smiled. "Then learn well. You definitely won't embarrass your master. When he comes back, you can thank him properly."

When she heard that Old Wu would return in the future, Madam Zhao was no longer worried.

Just thinking about it made her happy. Her gentle gaze landed on Su Xiaolu, and she felt proud. She had given birth to such a good daughter.

When it was past noon and the pickles were sold out, Su Xiaolu would go back with her family.

Everyone knew that Su Xiaolu had graduated and Old Wu had left.

Regarding this matter, the family tacitly did not discuss much.

From now on, Su Xiaolu would go back and forth between home and the Sun residence alone.

In mid-July, Madam Qian entered town again to teach a new recipe to the chef at Fu Man Lai Restaurant.

On the seventeenth of July, she had just come out of the Fu Man Lai Restaurant when she felt someone following her.

Madam Qian was more sensitive. She observed quietly on the street and finally confirmed that a woman was really following her. She was frightened and quickly quickened her pace.

Madam Chen was originally following hesitantly. Seeing that Madam Qian had quickened her pace, she panicked and hurriedly chased after her. She grabbed Madam Qian's hand and said anxiously, "Wait, wait, wait. I just want to ask you something. I don't have any ill intentions."

Madam Qian was quite frightened. She did not expect Madam Chen to chase after her. Now that she saw Madam Chen clearly and saw that her eyes were filled with anxiety, she heaved a sigh of relief.

She whispered, "Miss, what do you want?"

Although Madam Qian was relieved, she was still wary of Madam Chen.

Madam Chen did not speak immediately. Instead, she sized up Madam Qian's face. Up close, she could still see the traces left on Madam Qian's face. Although the scars on her eyelids had healed and only left a small mark, her eyelids could not be like normal eyes.

Madam Chen's heart trembled. "It's true, it's true."

She was certain that this was no other's rumor. Madam Qian had once had many scars on her face. She knew them all too well, so she could confirm them when she saw them clearly.
