126 Warmth

“Grandpa, can I send it to Fatty Su?” Su Jinniang asked.

Because of the dim light, she did not notice Old Master Su’s expression change.

“Show me,” Old Master Su said.

Su Jinniang walked back to her door and handed the jade pendant to Old Master Su.

!!

The jade pendant was a valuable thing, so it was only right to be cautious. What if Su Yuniang used her jewelry to supplement Fatty Su?

Su Jinniang felt that her grandfather was guarding against her sister from betraying the family and did not suspect anything else.

Old Master Su held the jade pendant in his hand and flipped it around. His fingertips kept rubbing the patterns on the jade pendant.

Su Jinniang felt that she had guessed correctly. “Grandpa? Does this jade pendant belong to Sister? Did she give it to Fatty Su?”

Su Jinniang felt that her sister was too much! She didn’t even leave such a good thing for her! She actually gave it to an outsider!

“What jade pendant is mine?”

Su Yuniang’s voice appeared in the central room.

Old Master Su and his two grandchildren looked at her.

“Big Sister!” Su Sanlang ran to her side and lowered his head in shame. “Second Sister found me.”

“Why are you out?” Old Master Su asked.

“I’ve been cooped up in the house for too long, so I came out to take a walk,” Su Yuniang said.

Seeing that Old Master Su was about to speak, she explained, “Daya said that I can come out and walk around. It’s fine as long as I don’t stand in the cold wind outside.”

Su Jinniang snorted. “I’ve never heard of anyone walking out during confinement!”

Su Yuniang did not argue with her. Instead, she looked at Old Master Su and the jade pendant in his hand. “It’s Daya’s. She left it in my room so I got Sanlang to return it to her.”

Old Master Su pinched the jade pendant and calmly handed it to her.

Su Sanlang looked at Su Yuniang.

Su Yuniang said to her brother, “Give it back. We’re not greedy for others’ things.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Su Jinniang meaningfully.

Su Jinniang blushed slightly.

“Grandpa, I’ll go in first.” She lowered her head and entered the house.

Old Master Su also returned to his room coldly.

Su Yuniang looked back at her grandfather’s gradually disappearing back and frowned slightly.

Why did she feel that her grandfather’s expression was not right?

… .

Su Sanlang personally handed the jade pendant to Su Xiaoxiao.

Recently, Su Xiaoxiao had been soaking the jade in water when she had nothing to do. Needless to say, the texture of the jade became even more crystal clear.

“So it landed at your sister’s place. It scared me. I thought I dropped it on the way back to the village!”

This was the most valuable treasure she had on her and it was really delightful to find it again.

She went into the house to get an egg yolk pastry and handed it to him.

He was not a completely ignorant child. He could roughly understand that the relations.h.i.+p between the two families was not harmonious. Only his eldest sister and Fatty Su were close.

Therefore, he would not let his family know that he had eaten something from the Su family, except for his eldest sister.

He usually ate before leaving.

“Can I see the horse?” he asked.

“Sure.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded.

Overjoyed, Su Sanlang went to the small east room.

He had seen the horse as many times as Niudan. Unfortunately, he had seen it secretly. He could not show it off to his friends everywhere and was dying from holding it in.

… .

Su Xiaoxiao put away the jade pendant and turned to cook in the kitchen.

In order to celebrate her business success, she specially made a few hard dishes, a pot of rock-sugar pork shoulder, a bowl of braised pork ribs, and a plate of… something that Wei Ting could not name.

“What is this?”

Wei Ting asked.

It was like tofu, but it was not tofu. It was tender, smooth, and melted in the mouth. The fragrance of spicy oil completely fused into it, and there was an indescribable… freshness to it.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Brains!”

“Ahem!”

Wei Ting choked!

–

After dinner, Father Su went to the backyard to practice his wrist strength.

Actually, it was also a form of rehabilitation. Su Xiaoxiao made simple equipment for him and specified the upper limit of strength and time.

He would do it for one hour a day, and he would work on the exercise step by step.

Wei Ting taught Su Ergou and the three little ones how to read.

...

The three little ones were just bystanders. They shook their heads as they scribbled.

The main student was Su Ergou.

Although Su Ergou was usually playful, he was very serious when learning from Wei Ting. He was a proper fanboy. Of course, it was also because Wei Ting had taught him well.

Su Xiaoxiao carried a basket of needles and thread over and pretended to sit beside Su Ergou.

“I’m sewing a few clothes. Since it’s expensive to light a few oil lamps and my family isn’t well-off, I’ll use the oil lamps here. You guys talk. I won’t eavesdrop!”

If not for the fact that he had just given her so much silver, Wei Ting would really believe that her family was not well-off.

Wei Ting didn’t say anything and continued to teach Su Ergou.

The three little ones liked Su Xiaoxiao too much. They fought to show her their little graffiti.

“Mom, it was written by Xiaohu.”

Xiaohu showed off his… circles.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Not bad. Xiaohu is so smart!”

...

Dahu and the Erhu had to be praised.

Su Xiaoxiao listened attentively as she dealt with the three little ones.

Wei Ting was really good.

He could tell a story with just one word.

Su Ergou, who did not like to study and only liked to tease cats, play with dogs, and get into all sorts of mischief, actually felt that studying did not seem so annoying anymore.

Su Ergou said, “Brother-in-law, you speak better than the teacher.”

Wei Ting asked, “Did you go to school?”

Su Ergou said, “There’s a private school in Shallow Water Village, where Su Yuniang’s in-laws live. When I was young, I went there to study for a few days. The teacher found me stupid and troublesome, so he didn’t let me go anymore.”

He didn’t want to go himself. He hated the Master.

His brother-in-law was different. His brother-in-law never scolded him for being stupid, nor did he chide him if he remembered wrongly.

“These are the words you learned today. Copy them.”

Wei Ting handed Su Ergou a piece of calligraphy and a stack of white paper.

The words on the note were big and angular. Su Xiaoxiao could see them clearly without getting close. The main thing was that there were instructions on the order of the strokes.

Su Ergou scratched his head gloomily. He could read, but he really didn’t like writing.

Moreover, why were there so many?

How long was he going to write?

Wei Ting stood up calmly. “Give it to me tomorrow after you’re done. I’ll go rest first.”

Su Ergou grabbed the brush with a deep vengeance. “Got it, Brother-in-law.”

As soon as Wei Ting left, Su Xiaoxiao took a small stack of calligraphy paper from the table.

“I’ll help you write a few!”

“But Sister, do you know how to write?”

Su Xiaoxiao picked up the brush that Wei Ting had used and said without changing her expression, “Hey, who doesn’t know how to draw?”

Su Ergou felt that what his sister said made sense. He gave her more books. “Sister, help me write a few more!”

Su Xiaoxiao agreed generously. “Okay!”

Su Ergou lazily climbed onto the bed to sleep.

The siblings had a good relations.h.i.+p and were not that distant.

Su Xiaoxiao brought a small table over and sat on the bed. “Move over!”

“Oh.” Su Ergou rolled up the blanket and wriggled in.

Seeing this, the three little ones instantly threw away the toys in their hands and crawled onto the bed.

Su Xiaoxiao sat cross-legged and practiced calligraphy.

The three little ones somersaulted behind her and played happily!
