Chapter 12: daughter said yes



Li Xiu'e coaxed the little baby girl to feed the millet porridge. Hearing his sincerity, her heart warmed, and she glanced at him with spring in her eyes.

"Daughter-in-law, you can eat too. If you don't eat, it will be cold."

Su Hu's eyes lit up, he secretly stared at his daughter-in-law's delicate and beautiful side face, the tender flesh on the tip of his heart trembled involuntarily.

"Sit over and let the children see the joke."

The gaze on her face was too hot, Li Xiu'e's ears turned red, and she scolded in a low voice, both ashamed and annoyed.

"hey-hey......"

Su Hu rubbed his nose and laughed silly, and pulled the chair back to its original position.

*****

Jubaozhai, the most famous jewelry store in Furong Town.

Su Hu pulled the reluctant Li Xiu'e into the gate with a bit of force, and walked straight to the counter selling silver jewelry.

"Let's not buy it, the jewelry here is so expensive."

Li Xiu'e was still full of displeasure when she entered the shop, fearing that she would finally get the money, so she went in with all of it.

"Yeah."

The little baby girl liked the shiny silver ornaments very much. She leaned out half of her body from Li Xiu'e's arms, pointed to a pair of silver earrings with her white and tender hands, then turned around and pointed to her heart.

"Look, all the little Fuwas in our family have asked you to buy it."

Su Hu made sense, straightened his back, and immediately asked the clerk to buy the earrings that the little baby girl liked. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Qiaojie and Doudou, who were envious, and even waved his hand. Beep.

"There are three other children, each with a silver lock, all wrapped up and taken away."

"His father."

Li Xiu'e's heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and she stomped on him hard.

"Sister Yu said, should we buy it or not?" Su Hu didn't care about the pain in his feet, and turned to ask for Xiao Fuwa's support.

"Yeah."

The little baby girl clapped her little hands and smiled with crooked eyebrows.

"As long as my daughter says yes."

Su Hu raised the corners of his mouth proudly, and paid the bill with great pride, and put the box containing a pair of earrings and three silver locks in the basket properly.

"I have the final say on the purchase of fabrics, you are not allowed to make trouble."

It took twenty taels of silver for a while, Li Xiu'e's eyelids twitched in pain, her cheeks puffed out angrily, and she rushed out of Jubaozhai.

"Hey, daughter-in-law, you look good when you're angry."

Su Hu felt refreshed, his mouth seemed to have been smeared with honey, and he licked his face and chased after his wife.

"Shut up!"

Li Xiu'e was ashamed and annoyed, so she spat at him.

"hey-hey."

Su Hu was not ashamed, but proud, wiped his face casually, and continued to follow unhurriedly.

************

The family turned around the alley and passed by the school. Through the courtyard wall, they heard the sound of children reading neatly from inside.

Qiaojie, who was pulling her younger brother to follow her parents, stopped suddenly, turned her head to look at the tall courtyard wall, her eyes showed longing.

"Sister Qiao, after selling ginseng, our family is rich, mother will send you to school to study."

Sensitively aware of her daughter's thoughts, Li Xiu'e felt distressed, took two steps back, and hugged her daughter's thin body into her arms.

"Is what Mother said true? Can I read?"

Qiaojie's hazy eyes instantly lit up, exuding a look that had never been seen before.

Li Xiu'e's eyes were firm: "Of course it's true. Tomorrow, mother will go to the village chief and contact you about going to school, and let you follow the children in the village across the river to study in the school opposite."

"Mom, can I give my little sister a hug?"

With tears in her eyes, Qiao Jie raised her head timidly, looking at the little baby girl nestled in her mother's arms.
