The Little Sister in the Cultivation World

Chapter 33: Mr. Su’s Thoughts

"Oh, Aunt Juxiang." Su Jiaojiao obediently called the person and turned to answer the question of the village head's wife: "It's a bit much, four big bags. I thought Yu Zhiqing and I would have to make two trips to get them all. Now that we have two aunts, it's much more convenient."

"Ah? Four big pockets?" The village chief's wife was really surprised this time.

After thinking for a while, he leaned over to Su Jiaojiao's ear and whispered, "You can add two cents and ask Lao Liu to drive the ox cart over there."

The village gave the job of driving the ox cart to this old Liu. Anyone who wanted to ride the ox cart to the county or go back to the village had to pay 20 cents for the fare. Seeing the village head's wife like this...

Oh~ I understand!
Su Jiaojiao also leaned over and whispered, "I see. Thank you, Aunt Guihua."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Aunt Juxiang said to Su Jiaojiao at this time: "That's perfect. I'll take all the things back later. The cabinet will be delivered to you this afternoon. You can put the things you have sorted out directly into the cabinet then."

Along the way, I listened to the aunties chatting about the gossip of the villagers, but I always felt like I had forgotten something.

I can't remember it even if I think seriously.

never mind!

Anything that can be forgotten is not important!

I didn't think about it anymore. When the sky was completely bright, Su Jiaojiao was almost asleep leaning against Yu Meiya.

Suddenly a small stone fell from the sky and was about to hit Su Jiaojiao on the head, but her hand moved before she opened her eyes.

He grabbed the stone and looked in Xiaodu's direction with eyes as sharp as swords.

Su Jiaojiao: …Looking at the little bird with almost dried tears flying in the sky, she remembered what she had forgotten.

I can't blame myself for this. I finally had a clear mind after more than ten years, but when you came out, you cried to me for most of the night and no matter how I comforted you, it wouldn't work.

At first, I couldn't sleep because of Song Zhiwei. I tried to coax you into sleeping, but I told you I was going to sleep and you were still crying. If you were more sensible, you would have shut up long ago. If I hadn't cut off the contractual communication with you, I wouldn't have been able to sleep last night.

"What's wrong?" Yu Meiya was puzzled by Su Jiaojiao's actions just now.

"Oh~ It's okay." After saying that, he closed his eyes again and secretly used hand gestures to unlock the contract blockade.

"Master~How could you..."

Almost at the moment the knot was untied, Xiaodu's sharp voice filled Su Jiaojiao's entire mind.

She was so scared that she quickly cut it off. In the moment when her mind was quiet, she felt like she had survived a disaster. She patted her chest and said, "That was a close call."

"Su Zhiqing, look at that sparrow above our heads. It's following us and chirping. What's it doing?" The village chief's wife raised her hand and pointed in the direction of Xiaodu.

Everyone on the ox cart looked up and saw a small sparrow flying around their ox cart, chirping non-stop.

"Oh, maybe I'm hungry." Su Jiaojiao answered casually.

"Hey~ Su Zhiqing, you may not know, but sparrows like this are the most annoying. They eat grains. Every time they fly into the rice fields in large groups, you can't drive them away. I don't know how much they eat!"

As she spoke, the old lady made a sound similar to "Go away." to drive away the opponent.

Su Jiaojiao was silent for a moment, then secretly unblocked the contract. Before it could speak, she said, "Please keep your distance from me in front of others in the future. I don't want to be scolded with you. Thank you!" After that, she immediately blocked the contract again.

Xiaodu: ...cursing in my heart.

I can only rage helplessly in the sky!
The old house of the Su family in Beijing… Grandma Su, who had just finished breakfast, was wiping the table with a rag. Looking at Grandpa Su, whose face was mostly covered by the newspaper, she asked, "Old man, do you think Jiaojiao will call back today?"

Hearing this, Mr. Su replied without even raising his eyes: "If I could come to town today, I would probably call back."

At this point he seemed to have just remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way! Xiangdong said his second son is coming back."

"Ah? My little grandson is coming back? Didn't he go on a mission? When will he arrive?" Grandma Su left the table, took off her apron and walked out, muttering as she walked: "I didn't know you told me earlier. Now I can't buy anything good at the supply and marketing cooperative."

Mr. Su unconsciously tightened his hand holding the newspaper a little, feeling that he shouldn't say too much.

What does it have to do with me whether that guy comes back or not? Why am I always the one who gets scolded?
……

"This is it."

At this time, Su's mother, along with a woman and a boy about thirteen years old, pushed open a small courtyard in an alley.

There are two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. What makes Su's mother most satisfied is that there is also a separate bathroom in the courtyard.

Although it's small inside, it's clean and tidy.

You know, housing is in short supply now, and some families are still crowded into one house.

It is not easy to find such a neat and tidy independent courtyard, so you can see that it was carefully designed.

The rough-skinned woman pulled the boy stiffly and thanked him repeatedly.

The boy just held his mother's hand tightly. They were both thin and dark, and it was obvious that they were suffering from long-term malnutrition.

Mother Su patted the woman's hand and said soothingly, "Sister, you guys stay here. See if you need anything and buy it together. Then we can go to the guesthouse together and move all your things over."

Because the woman was too reserved, the little boy's hand was a little painful when she pinched it, but the little boy just frowned and pursed his lips without saying anything.

Seeing them like this, Su's mother sighed. No wonder Old Su wanted to help even at such a sensitive time.

换她
She couldn't just stand by and watch!
With her personality, I really don’t know what kind of job would be suitable for her.

Su's mother was also a little worried, but she didn't show it on her face.

My son is coming back today, so it seems I can’t go to the train station to pick him up.

But she didn't know that her youngest son was just a few stops away from arriving in Beijing when he received another call from the army at the train station! When he arrived at the station, he was told by the staff to return to the army immediately.

So the person they were waiting for turned back.

Ah!
At this time, Mr. Su, who was holding the newspaper, kept his achievements and fame hidden.

Su Jiaojiao doesn’t know what’s happening at home!
Now she only knew that her waist was about to break, and seeing those aunties acting as if it was nothing, Su Jiaojiao wondered if she should buy a bicycle.

There were very few people when I rode the bullock cart yesterday. If I felt uncomfortable, I could move around, or even lie down.
There are so many people here that it’s hard to move!

When they finally arrived, Su Jiaojiao was the first to jump down. She immediately put her hands on her waist and moved slowly until she felt a little better.

After saying hello, the aunties almost all left.
