Chapter 60: Slowly
Su Xiaolu touched Su Sanmei’s hair and smiled at her to comfort her.
Su Sanmei pinched Su Xiaolu’s cheek and smiled without saying anything.
“Grandpa, Grandma, when I become an official, I will definitely let you ride in a big carriage and make you comfortable.”
“Grandpa, Grandma, when I become an official, I’ll buy you anything delicious and fun.”
Children’s laughter came from nearby.
There was also the gentle laughter of older people. “Alright, alright. Our Su family will rely on Shun and Qing to make a name for ourselves.”
“Of course. Our Shun and Qing are the smartest.”
Madam Wang said happily, her face filled with joy.
Today, they went to register for school. It was a school opened by an old scholar. He collected one tael of silver and fifty catties of rice a year for school fees.
There were two children from the Su family, Su Shun from Su Dalang’s family and Su Qing from Su Erlang’s family.
With such a sum of money gone, Madam Wang’s heart ached. However, when she returned and heard her two grandsons’ bold words, she was so happy that her mouth could not close. The money she had spent instantly did not hurt anymore and she felt that it was worth it.
When Madam Zhao heard the voice, she couldn’t help but look up.
Coincidentally, their gazes met. Madam Wang’s expression immediately changed. She spat on the path and cursed with a look of disgust, “How unlucky.”
......
Su Shun and Su Qing also revealed smug smiles and shouted at Su Chong and Su Hua, “These two fools are so stupid. They will never be as good as us.”
When Madam Wang heard this, she became even more pleased with herself. She smiled and praised Su Shun and Su Qing, “Good grandchildren, well said. These few short-lived ones will never be able to compare to you guys. You guys will be very outstanding in the future.”
As Madam Wang spoke, she even glared fiercely at Su Sanlang’s family.
Su Chong and Su Hua looked at Su Qing and Su Shun in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Su Qing and Su Shun also made faces at Su Chong and Su Hua.
“Go away.”
Su Sanlang took a lump of mud and threw it at Su Qing and Su Shun. His expression was ferocious, like a furious beast.
Madam Wang jumped in fright and screamed angrily, “Su Sanlang, do you want to die?”
Su Qing and Su Shun were also frightened. Since Su Qing’s feet had been smashed, he did not dare to mock them anymore and hurriedly hid behind Madam Wang with Su Shun.
Su Sanlang looked coldly at Old Master Su and Madam Wang with his right eye and said, “Try saying that again?”
Su Sanlang no longer had any lingering feelings for that family. They were the ones who had caused his children to become like this. Thinking about how he had endured it for more than ten years, Su Sanlang’s heart was filled with hatred.
Anyone could bully Su Chong and Su Hua, but not the Su family.
Seeing that Su Sanlang looked like he wanted to eat someone, Madam Wang was a little afraid of him. She said fiercely, “Crazy, crazy, really crazy.”
“Shut up.”
Old Master Su berated Madam Wang with a dark expression. He glanced at Su Sanlang and left quickly.
Madam Wang hurriedly pulled Su Qing and Su Shun along. After walking far away, she spat out a few mouthfuls and cursed under her breath.
After they left, Madam Zhao whispered to Su Sanlang, “Sanlang.”
Su Sanlang hung his head and said in a dry voice, “Darling, take the children back. I’ll be back after this.”
Madam Zhao nodded and left the field with the children.
On the way back, Madam Zhao shed tears.
Su Chong, Su Hua, Su Sanmei, and Su Xiaolu were all quiet.
Su Xiaolu looked at her two silly brothers and decided to take their pulses.
When they returned home, Madam Zhao was not idle either.
Su Sanmei went to feed the chickens and ducks while Su Xiaolu was placed in a wooden basket.
Su Chong and Su Hua stared at her.
Su Xiaolu reached out and grabbed Su Chong’s hand. She smiled at him.
Su Chong looked at Su Xiaolu and smiled back at her. Then, he couldn’t help but kiss Su Xiaolu’s cheek.
Su Chong wanted to reach out to hug Su Xiaolu, but Su Xiaolu pouted. “Wuwu…”
Su Chong immediately stopped moving. He clumsily touched Su Xiaolu’s hair with his right hand and coaxed her, “Sister, don’t cry. Be good.”
Su Xiaolu grabbed Su Chong’s left hand. As long as Su Chong did not move his left hand, she would not cry.
In her previous life, she had been a Chinese doctor for 26 years and had learned Chinese medicine since she was young. She could be said to be talented in this aspect. After her death, she transmigrated here. The spiritual spring water in the Space had been nourishing her body, so her talent was even better than in her previous life.
As soon as she checked his pulse, she remembered what the doctor had said at the Miscellaneous Medical Hall last year.
The doctor was right, but she checked the pulse more carefully. Her perception seemed to have been magnified infinitely, and she could completely figure out the cause of the illness.
In Su Chong’s mind, there were accumulated blood clots that blocked his meridians. The development of his brain was very slow. If he could dissolve the blood clots and use expensive herbs to nourish his body, Su Chong could continue to develop mentally.
Su Xiaolu let go. If she were older, she could perform acupuncture on Su Chong and let the blood clots in his brain dissolve.
But there was no if. Su Lu grabbed Su Hua’s left hand and reached out to hug her second brother.
Su Hua didn’t dare move. He didn’t know what to do. His sister was still small. She had just learned to sit upright. She was still soft and fragile. He was afraid that if he moved, she would fall and cry.
Su Chong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Xiaolu was hugging his brother. He immediately said nervously, “Hua, don’t move. I’ll go get Sanmei.”
With that, Su Chong ran toward the backyard.
Of course, Su Hua did not move. Su Xiaolu checked his pulse in peace. Su Hua’s mind stopped developing because the high fever had burned the meridians in his brain. When the dead meridians became blocked, Su Hua’s brain stopped developing.
It also had to be unblocked with needles and repaired with medicine.
Su Xiaolu retracted her hand and sighed. She still had to wait a few years. In these few years, she could only let her family use the spiritual spring water every day.
When Su Sanmei and Su Chong came out together, Su Xiaolu had already let go of Su Hua and sat down obediently.
Su Sanmei smiled and said to Su Chong and Su Hua, “Eldest Brother, Second Brother, don’t be afraid. Simei only hugged you because she likes you.”
With that, Su Sanmei smiled at Su Xiaolu and asked gently, “Simei, isn’t that right?”
Of course it was.?Su Xiaolu thought.
Su Xiaolu smiled back at Su Sanmei.
“Simei is so beautiful.”
Su Sanmei kissed Su Xiaolu’s cheek, picked up Su Xiaolu, and brought Su Chong and Su Hua to the backyard.
After this, Su Xiaolu had more contact with Su Chong and Su Hua.
Always well behaved, she smiled at everyone in the house.
It was March, and the family was very busy. Even Su Sanmei helped with the planting, so Madam Zhao took care of Su Xiaolu.
She was too young to help, so she just tried to be an obedient child.
The days passed.
Spring passed. So did the hot summer. Soon, fall came.
When Su Xiaolu was one year old, she could already say simple words. She could call her parents, big brother, second brother, and third sister. She could also walk, although she was not steady.
