    Everyone revealed revering and grateful expressions when they looked at Su


    Binn. The saleswoman was also excited when she saw Su Binn. “T-Thank you, Miss Su. I’ll bring you to my house now.”


    The saleswoman hurriedly picked up her things and gave up her spot at the market. Then she handed a wooded carving to thedy beside her. “Thank you for making space for me. This toy is for you to bring home for your children to y with.”


    They smiled lovingly. “There’s no need for that. It’s hard enough for you to earn money, and I can’t take your things for free.”


    “Please, take it, Ma’am.’


    The saleswoman had arrivedte to the market, so no space remained for her toy stall. However, thedy beside her had kindly moved aside and given the saleswoman a small spot to set up her stall.


    The saleswoman was grateful and wanted to pay thedy for her kindness. However, the saleswoman had set up her stall not long ago and had yet to sell any toys.


    Thedy smiled when she saw the saleswoman’s anxious expression. Thedy said, “How about this? Here’s a small basket my family made. You can have it to hold your things.”


    The saleswoman nodded, took the basket, and gave thedy the wooden toy.


    Then the saleswoman put the rest of her things in the basket and prepared to set off with Su Binn.


    The saleswoman remembered something and said, “M-Miss Su, my house is far from here.’


    “That’s okay. My family has a carriage we can take.”


    “A-A carriage?” The saleswoman’s eyes widened, looking adorable.


    Su Binn found it amusing to see her like that. The saleswoman looked like a little girl with a mature woman’s hairdo.


    The people of this era only had a few restrictions. Everyone’s hairstyle was casual, but some insisted onbing theirs to look moredy-like. Su Binn asked, “Oh, right. Where’s your house?”


    “It’s in Eastern Thunder Vige.” Indeed, the vige was far away.


    Su Binn looked at the saleswoman and asked, “How old are you? Did you walk here from Eastern Thunder Vige this morning?”


    The salesgirl answered, “My name is Lei Tongtong, and I’m fourteen this year. Although I’m young, I’m capable enough to have set off before dawn and walked here.’


    Su Binn raised her eyebrows, thinking, ‘Her surname is Lei, but I’m unsure if it’s a coincidence.’


    “Since we’re heading to Eastern Thunder Vige, taking the carriage will be more convenient.”


    Lei Tongtong was rtively simple, so she did not suspect anything after hearing Su Binn’s words. Moreover, she knew Su Binn was a good person that everyone acknowledged. Hence, she trusted Su Binn.


    Meanwhile, Lan Ruozhu’s expression turned cold. He had a suspicion but could not be sure. ‘l must see this man to know what’s happening.’


    Su Binn also felt the need to meet Lei Tongtongs husband. She wanted to know if it was him. She felt apologetic for being unable to apany her brother around the market. “Brother, why don’t I get Wenvvu to apany


    Lan Ruozhu shook his head and said, “I’lle with you.”


    The siblings knew what it meant when they looked at each other. Su Binn also knew her brother had a suspicion. She said, “All right then.”


    Lan Ruozhu added, “Besides, we can go to the market anytime. We have important business to attend to now.”


    Su Binn nodded. Then Lei Tongtong, Blue Eagel, and the siblings boarded the carriage and headed toward Eastern Thunder Vige. Su Binn looked at Lei Tongtongs adorable and innocent appearance before asking, “Who tied your hair?”


    “My husband did. He wanted to give me a young girl’s hairstyle, but I wanted a more womanly one because I’m married to him.” Lei Tongtong was all smiles whenever she mentioned her husband. She seemed to love him very much.


    “Then your husband must dote on you a lot.”


    Lei Tongtong nodded without hesitation and said, ‘Yes, he’s my perfect husband.’


    However, she thought of something, and her expression became downcast. Su Binn looked at her and felt thetter was like a child. Lei Tongtongs eyes were crystal clear, and she seemed well protected.


    “Your husband doesn’t know you often go to the market to sell things, right?”


    Lei Tongtong blinked when she heard that. “H-How did you know.”


    “l just guessed as much,” Su Binn chuckled.


    Lei Tongtong looked innocent, and her husband doted on her very much. Since that was the case, he would not bear to let her travel so far just to sell things. Moreover, those toys looked like they had more meaning to them.


    Lei Tongtongs husband had probably made them for Lei Tongtong. No wonder she looked heartbroken when she was trying to sell them. She could not bear to sell the toys but had to do it for her husband’s treatment.


    “Did your husband make these toys for you?”


    Lei Tongtong felt saddened when she heard Su Binn’s question. She nodded. “Yes, he made them. I couldn’t bear to sell them.”


    She was reluctant to y with the toys, fearing she would break them.


    Su Binn looked at Lei Tongtongs downcast expression and reached out to stroke the girl’s hair. “Don’t be sad. Your husband can make you more toys when he recovers.’


    “Yes, Miss Su.” Lei Tong Tong nodded.


    It was already noon when the trio arrived at Eastern Thunder Vige near the foot of a valley. The poption was rtively small, and everyone had the Lei surname. Smoke also emerged from every household, probably from everyone cooking.


    Lei Tongtong alighted from the carriage and saw a man standing at the door of a thatched cottage. She looked over and said, “That’s my husband.”


    Su Binn saw the man and could see him more clearly when the carriage got closer. Although the man’s appearance had changed a little, she could still recognize him at a nce,


    ‘It’s Gongsun Mo.’


    It was the young man from the Gongsun family Su Binn had saved. He was probably neen now, and she did not expect him to be married.


    ‘Thank goodness he’s still alive.’


    However, Lan Ruobing had arranged for Gongsun MO to go to Thundercloud Castle, not Eastern Thunder Vige. She wondered what he was doing here instead.


    ‘If I’m not mistaken, Lei Tongtong should also be from Thundercloud Castle.’


    Lei Tongtong left the carriage and ran toward Gongsun Mo. “Dear, what are you doing outside?”


    Gongsun MO used his walking stick to support himself as he looked at his wife and said helplessly, “Where did you go? Why didn’t youe home until now?”


    He could not bear to scold Lei Tongtong too much. However, he became cold and wary when he saw Su Binn’s carriage. Gongsun MO instinctively wanted to protect his wife behind him.


    But she stuck out her tongue and said, “I’m okay, dear. Miss Su brought me home. Her medical skills are unparalleled.”


    ‘Miss Su?’ Although Gongsun MO had never left Eastern Thunder Vige, he had heard the news about the Su family and Miss Su. That was because someone from Eastern Thunder Vige worked in Su Binn’s embroidery shop.


    That girl’s family always liked showing off, saying how good the Su family was and how their daughter could receive wages and bonuses.


    Gongsun MO had heard about these things but did not know much else. He asked frowningly, “Didn’t I tell you not to go too far?”


    “But 1 want to heal your leg. 1 don’t want you to work like that.” Although Lei Tongtong was innocent, she was not a fool. She knew what to do and wanted to heal her husband’s leg..
