The black iron armor of Dingbei Marquis Xiao Chengyu was stained with sweet jujube paste for the first time - Su Niantang smashed it with shortbread.
Seven years ago, he believed the lieutenant's slander that "the peasant girl wanted to cling to her" and expelled her and the just-one-month-old A Zhuo from the city; seven years later, the "peasant girl" he had driven away was squatting in a dim sum shop in the market, teaching A Zhuo how to knead dough: "A Zhuo must remember, we do not rely on the sky or the earth."
"Aniang! The eldest brother of the Hou family said that I look like Lord Hou!" A Zhuo rushed towards him with his arm held by Xiao Chengyu.
Xiao Chengyu stood at the door of "Tangli Zhai", looking at Zongzi's tiger fangs that were exactly like his own, and his heart ached - he checked for three months and finally found out the truth: the deputy general changed his wound medicine, and bribed Po Wen to say that A Zhuo was not of his own flesh and blood; and he mistakenly thought that Su Niantang was the "Bai Yueguang substitute", and actually pushed Zhenxin away with his own hands.
So the stables of the Marquis Mansion were changed into a snack workshop, and the general's military order was changed to "Send the freshest candied dates to Tangli Zhai."
Su Niantang held the sugar-painted phoenix brought by A Zhuo and stared at Xiao Chengyu's dark eyes: "Xiao Hou, when you chased me away, did you ever think about today?" He held out half a jade pendant - the half she lost before she was abducted, and his voice trembled: "I have been looking for you for twenty years, and I never knew... You were right in front of me."
And that night, A Zhuo lay at the window and muttered: "My father said he wanted to mend the candy paintings for seven years, but I think he wants to mend the seven-year... Candied haws."
