On the other side, Xixi, held in Su Yu's arms, seemed to be extra clingy due to not seeing her for a few days. Her little hand rubbed back and forth in the crook of Su Yu's arm.
Despite the immense reluctance in her heart, Su Yu still steeled herself to administer acupuncture treatment to Xixi.
Xixi was exceedingly sensible. Even the slight pain from the needles piercing her skin couldn't make the little girl shed a single tear.
Seeing this, Jiang Ziling was about to get up to fetch water from the well outside the kitchen for everyone to wash up, considering that it was inconvenient for Su Yu to go there with other men present in the kitchen.
However, as soon as he showed his intention, he was met with Su Yu's cold gaze, imbued with a warning.
"Sit down and don't move."
Su Yu's words were concise and forceful, leaving no room for doubt.
