Old He looked flattered. "Oh, that's it, okay, I'll bake others."
"I just caught a few fish. I'm going to grill the fish. The fish I grilled tastes very good. You can try it later."
Su Qiao nodded. "Okay."
[Host, why are you so polite to him?]
Even when talking to Professor Tang, the host doesn't seem to be so polite, right?
"This person is not simple at first sight. I want to try to find out who he is."
Ancient, Chu, Su, and Shang Four Great Families, three of them have already arrived.
Su Qiao suspects that this Old He is Shang Family's person.
[It must be someone from the Shang Family, just like that Professor Tang. The two of them must be from the Shang Family.]
"That's not necessarily the case."
Su Qiao feels that although these two people are on the same team, they have a cooperative relationship, not a superior-subordinate relationship.

Early the next morning, after tidying up, Su Qiao and the others continued on their way.
But this time, Su Qiao clearly found that Professor Tang and Old He took themselves more seriously.
"Miss Su still knows about herbal medicine?"
Old He held some dry branches in his arms and looked curiously at Su Qiao who was squatting by the grass.
Su Qiao grabbed a handful of grass and turned around. "I don't understand, I just look good and pull it out for fun."
"You girls in the city rarely see these mountains and trees, so it's normal to be curious."
Old He smiled generously, and after saying that, he walked out of the forest with the firewood in his arms.
"Look closely enough."
Su Qiao threw away the grass in his hands, clapped his hands, and continued to stroll slowly around the camp.
About ten minutes later, before it completely darkened, Su Qiao walked towards the camp with a large handful of messy grass in his hands.
When she passed by Old He who was squatting by the forest, seemingly in a daze, but actually spying on her, she paused in her steps.
Staring at the worn black and white photo in his hand, he raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Uncle He, this photo of yours...?"
"Huh?"
"Oh, nothing, nothing."
Uncle He was a little flustered, and quickly stuffed the black and white photo with frayed corners into the inner pocket of his heart.
If it was nothing, why would you be so panicked?
Su Qiao looked at him meaningfully. "Don't be nervous, I just think that the person in this photo has some similarities between his features and eyes."
"Similar?"
Old He was stunned by her words.
"Actually, it's nothing. In this world, apart from the similarities between people who are related by blood, two complete strangers will sometimes have some similarities."
"I'm leaving first. Uncle He It's best not to stay too long. There are poisonous snakes in this forest."
Su Qiao finished speaking lightly and walked towards the river not far away.
"Wait..."
Su Qiao didn't say it was okay, but saying it made Old He even more doubtful.
He bought his wife from a group of human traffickers. Because she was injured on the head while escaping, she lost her memory. She couldn't even remember where her home was or who else was there.
"That's not right. She can't be related to the Su family."
Old He patted his head and felt that he had thought too much.
Su Qiao squatted by the river, first washed his face, and then carefully washed the soil from the roots of the herbs.
"Xiaosi, I suddenly have a very bold guess."
[You don't think you are Uncle He's biological child, do you?]
This is too ridiculous.
444 rolled his eyes.
"Who said it's not possible?"
"What we do in research is to make bold assumptions, be cautious in verification, and be cautious..."
