Chapter 80 - 80 Thoughtful
80 Thoughtful
To be honest, Su Xiu was more responsible than Su Qing and was more worried about her sisters. It was clear from the fact that she worked hard in the fields without complaining to earn work points after she dropped out of school.
Su Xiu put down her things and washed her face. Then, the sisters went into the kitchen and started cooking dumplings. During this period, Su Xiu talked so much for the first time. She could not stop talking. She talked about going to school, and it was obvious that she was really happy.
“It’s a good thing I went, otherwise fourth sister and fifth sister would have been greatly wronged.” Su Xiu patted her chest with a look of lingering fear. “Big sister, you’re so thoughtful. Otherwise, fourth and fifth sister would not have been able to explain it clearly.”
“You did well.” Su Wen did not expect that Su Xiu, who was usually an introverted and honest person, would be so good at doing things.
She had done the right thing by handing things over to her today.
“Big sister, you’re the best.” Su Xiu lowered her head shyly. She was very embarrassed.
Little sister Su pouted. She was angry that she was too young to help her big sister. Otherwise, there would be no need for her third sister to do anything. She could do it alone.
Hmph! Little sister Su was jealous and angry.
Su Qing looked at Su Xiu with a complicated expression and slowly clenched her fists. Because of her quick-witted personality, the younger sister was able to quarrel with everyone in the village and also followed her big sister to the county town to sell things.
But by now, even the most honest third sister in the family had grown up a lot. As the second child, she could no longer be a frog in a well.
Like her big sister, she was in high school and was the most educated person in the village. She should not be so useless.
Su Qing suddenly realized that her lifelong dream of being a tailor was too small.
“Big sister, let me go and sell cakes tomorrow!” Su Qing suddenly spoke.
“Oh? Did you not want to go to your Master’s to learn tailoring?” Su Wen did not want to delay Su Qing’s learning of tailoring, so she did not easily assign other things to Su Qing.
“I…” Su Qing gritted her teeth and struggled a few times in her heart. Finally, she said with a firm gaze, “I’ve thought it through. I can’t just be a tailor my whole life.”
Su Wen’s heart was filled with joy. She was very happy that Su Qing could get over it on her own, which meant that her second sister was not stupid.
“Good! Then I’ll leave it to you and third sister tomorrow.”
When the dumplings were ready, the sisters each filled a bowl with dumplings. With one bite, the dumplings were so delicious that one could swallow their tongue. Little sister Su kept fanning herself with her hands, but she did not stop eating.
“It’s delicious, it’s delicious. Big sister, why are your shepherd’s purse dumplings so delicious?” She said as she ate.
“Why? Big sister, it really is too delicious.” Su Xiu was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She was completely different from little sister Su. She ate very slowly, taking small bites. She could not bear to finish it and wanted to taste it slowly.
She wanted to slowly taste it and remember it deeply.
“Because you guys are reluctant to put more oil, you put less eggs, and you put them in different ways.” Su Wen had added a lot of oil residue, and the eggs were added after they were fried. Even without the thirteen spices, they were still delicious.
The wild shepherd’s purse was very tender, and Su Wen had carefully selected each one. With all these things added together, it was no wonder that they did not taste good.
Su Wen had enjoyed the delicacies of a bustling city before, but she still could not help but be impressed by the more natural taste. In the past, it was not easy for her to eat such delicious wild shepherd’s purse!
“Yes, yes, yes, big sister is right.” Little sister Su had seen with her own eyes how many good things Su Wen had put in there. At that time, her heart ached when she saw it, but now she knew how delicious it was.
Su Wen looked at Su Qing, who had been silent the whole time, and found that this girl was actually eating dumplings while crying.
She was shocked.
