Chapter 102 - 102 Sister’s Kindness
102 Sister’s Kindness
Su Binglan had made some money these past two days, so the Su family hired people to work the fields for them. However, they also worked hard to water the fields in the past.
Su Binglan nodded as she understood the villagers’ situation. Afterward, she kept thinking about when it would rain next.
…
When afternoon arrived, Su Wenzhe woke up. He also quickly recovered and could walk around because of his sister’s medicine.
He saw his father and Luo Jin’an grinding beans and became curious because he did not know what that contraption was.
“What is that, father?”
The house had changed significantly when Su Wenzhe was away.
Su Fengmao saw that Su Wenzhe was awake, so he hurriedly said, “You’re not well. Don’t move around so much. Please, sit down and rest.”
When Su Wenzhe sat down, Su Fengmao explained while continuing his work, “These are soybeans. We can use them to make soy milk and tofu. Tofu is excellent because it tastes good and we can also sell them.
“Thanks to your sister, our family’s conditions started improving. You wouldn’t be here right now if it weren’t for her. She was the one who earned money so she could reclaim you. She also made the medicine you took. You must remember your sister’s kindness.”
Su Fengmao over-explained, but he could not help it because the Su family valued women over men and spoiled Su Binglan.
Su Wenzhe did not think anything was wrong with what his father said because he also thought it was right to spoil his sister. “Don’t worry, father. I will always remember my sister’s kindness and treat her better in the future.”
Su Fengmao nodded and said, “All right. Also, your sister said we would set up a shop soon. You and your wife will make and sell tofu. You won’t feel so tired because we will be working and earning money together.
“Phew, you don’t know how dry the fields are now. We would be working hard and starving to death if we relied solely on crops. But our conditions will improve now that we have a decent living. We no longer have to live like before and lose sleep because of the drought.”
There were also droughts in the past, and everyone in the village could not sleep because they were concerned. One could imagine the stress and pressure the villagers felt.
However, the Su family had a better livelihood and could earn money to improve their lives.
Su Fengmao was typically a quiet person, but he wanted to tell his eldest son about Su Binglan’s well-being, so he rambled on.
Su Wenzhe was shocked. “Is my sister that capable?!”
Su Fengmao said, “Your sister always has been. Last night, she said she would bring your second and third brothers home too. But your second brother has gone out of town with his boss while your third brother is handling his team’s matters and won’t be back for a while. I heard it hasn’t been peaceful out there. I wonder how they’re doing.”
Although Su Fengmao doted on his daughter, his sons were still out and about, and as a father, we would naturally be concerned.
Meanwhile, Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai stayed by Su Wenzhe’s side, afraid to lose him again.
Su Wenzhe knew his family’s situation. Otherwise, he and his brothers would not have left home to work. After hearing his father ramble on, he knew Su Binglan and his family’s conditions had improved.
After all, medicinal herbs were expensive, so how could their family afford them without Su Binglan and their improved livelihoods. Su Wenzhe knew to remember his sister’s kindness.
Luo Jin’an was very quiet from the beginning to the end. He was busy putting soybeans into the stone mill and collecting the soy milk. His suppressed presence could make others forget he was around, especially if he did not speak.
Su Wenzhe looked at the tofu and soy milk curiously. Then he smelled their aroma and got hungry. However, he was too shy to say anything.
Gurgle…
Su Fengmao heard Su Wenzhe’s stomach growling, saying, “Your sister made tofu soup, stir-fried chili meat, and a thousand layer cake for lunch. She said you might wake up in the afternoon and get hungry, so she left some for you on the table.”
