Chapter 20 I Can Carry Them All
Liu Cuihua pondered, and took out more changes into her hand, "Take some more. When the spring comes, there is no telling what the world will be like!"
This time Su Jiuyue did not refuse again. Although she was angry with her parents for selling her, now it seems that it's not a bad thing.
In the end, she was not sold into slavery, but instead there are more people who are good to her, so she did not care anymore.
She is now worried about the life of her own family, and has no idea how they are doing lately.
Liu Cuihua packed her some rice, noodles and eggs, and also wrapped a few pieces of malt sugar for her to take back to her younger siblings at home.
Finally, when Su Jiuyue left, she went to the backyard to catch an old hen and ask her to take it back.
Looking at Su Jiuyue's teary eyes, Liu Cuihua smiled and waved at her, "Alright, hurry up. Can you still remember the way back home?"
Su Jiuyue nodded and then took Wu Xiyuan on the way home.
When they two walked away, Zhang Daniang next door said, "Older sis, you are too good to your daughter-in-law. You even caught a chicken for her?"
Liu Cuihua smiled and went around the fence to help her hang up the sheets, explaining, "actually I have personal considerations, because I've no idea if my Xiyuan could recover from this condition. I can't stay with him for the rest of his life, so if she can treat Xiyuan well, it's not a big deal for me to be nice to her now."
Zhang Daniang sighed and felt sympathy for her. When the family Wu cultivated such a good boy Wu Xiyuan in the beginning, who didn't envy her Liu Cuihua? But in the blink of eyes, how come
her son had become such a person?
"Pathetic parents' heart. You're right anyway. According to the look of your little son's wife, she's not a person who likes to cause trouble. You can just rest assured."
Su Jiuyue took Wu Xiyuan's hand and did not dare to let him go. Some people on the road saw and teased them, although she was shy, also ignored it.
Her husband is not the same as normal people. Her mother-in-law treats her so well, so she certainly should also take care of her husband.
Wu Xiyuan also likes being held by her and did not reject it at all, but seeing her thin body struggling to carry a large basket, he took the initiative and said, "honey, let me help you carry the basket!"
Su Jiuyue thought of the eggs inside and did not dare to give it to him, worrying that he would accidentally knocked the eggs, "No need, I'll carry it myself."
But who knew that Wu Xiyuan actually did not go forward after being rejected. Su Jiuyue was unable to pull him, and when she turned around, she saw his puffed-up appearance.
"What's wrong?" She did not understand. Is it wrong to not let him work?
"I'm angry!" Wu Xiyuan said loudly.
"Why are you angry?" Su Jiuyue looked at him, and her big eyes full of confusion.
"Why didn't you let me carry it? I'm a fool, but I can carry a basket." He even had a few moments of grievance.
Su Jiuyue remembered the way he was teased by the children that day and thought about it, so she took the eggs out of the basket and gave him the rest, "I'll carry this and you can have the rest, okay?"
This is how she coaxed her younger siblings when she was a child, very patient.
"Give it all to me. I can carry them too!"
Su Jiuyue pursed her lips and shook her head, "Although you can carry it, you help me, and I also want to help you. We are good friends."
She thought she would get Wu Xiyuan's approval, but he shook his head and said with a serious face, "No, we're not good friends. You're my wife!"
Su Jiuyue blushed thoroughly, as red as a persimmon in late autumn.
This fool! Shame on you!
