Chapter 88: High Vision

As soon as autumn came, Xiao Qingyang, Xiao Qingxing and Yaya were the happiest because they had different fruits to eat every day. The three little ones were so full from reading that they didn’t want to eat.

Yaya can now speak some simple words, and with adequate nutrition and strong legs and feet, she would run to the store on her own, tiptoeing and reaching for the fruits on the shelf with her little hands, and would bring them back for Grandma Zhou to wash for her.

Grandma Zhou was soft-hearted, and seeing that the child loved to eat and the store could afford it, she never stopped them.

She happily washed the fruit for the child, peeled it, cut it into small pieces and put it in a bowl for her to eat. The little thing happily held the bowl and sat on a small stool to eat it piece by piece, looking very satisfied.

Grandma Zhou liked to watch her eat the most, and when she didn’t eat, she would want to wash and cut it for her to eat.

Su Qingliu felt that she had treated the child badly in the past. Now the child wanted to eat, but she didn't agree. The child pursed his lips, held back a bubble of tears, and looked at her so persistently with tears in his eyes. If he didn't give her food, he would cry immediately. So she was soft-hearted and didn't stop him.

So the little ones almost ate the fruit as a meal. They said they were happiest in autumn.

Xiao Qingyang was still a little restrained, but Xiao Qingxing was smart. She often pulled Yaya to hide the fruit and eat it. If she was found out, she would say she would give it to Ma Shi Niang to eat.

When she was found out, Yaya hugged the fruit tightly in her arms and pointed her little hand outside: "Master, eat."

Her long eyelashes fluttered, making people reluctant to refuse.

Yaya could only jump one word at a time. Ma Shi Niang treated her well, so she wanted to keep everything for Ma Shi Niang. Her little finger pointed outside, "Mom, eat", which made Su Qingliu very jealous.

When Ma Shi Niang found out, she liked her even more.

As a result, Yaya stayed in the martial arts hall almost all day, and Su Qingliu only saw her at dinner and sleep.

Sometimes, Ma Shi Niang would keep her in the martial arts hall for dinner before sending her back. Ma Shi Niang was very patient with her, liked to watch her eat, and liked to feed her.

Su Qingliu often saw Ma Shi Niang, and saw that she smiled more because of her daughter, and she would not care about Yaya's unintentional words. She was also happy that there was one more person who loved Yaya.

Qingxing also recognized a lot of words under the guidance of Ma Shi Niang, and could read the shallow children's books by herself, which surprised Su's father. He often collected some good things and local products in the countryside and brought them back to Ma Shi Niang.

The fruit business in the store was doing well, and Su Qing was happy. On this day, she still had dinner with her father and siblings in the store before returning to the Lu family.

Now that she had a child, Su's father urged her to go back before it got dark, fearing that she would walk at night. Granny Zhou always accompanied her to the gate of the Lu family before returning to the Zhou family.

Su Qingmei entered the door and was about to go to her room when she was stopped by Wu.

Su Qingmei was a little surprised. Wu hadn't spoken to her for a while.

In the main room, Lu Shengcai and his two sons were not there. Only Wu and Lu Yuzhu were there.

Su Qingmei greeted her and felt even more strange when she saw Wu smiling and responded. She glanced at Lu Yuzhu and saw that she also looked kind, which made her feel even more uneasy.

"Bocheng's family, Yuzhu said that she saw you in front of the Jixiang Cake Shop some time ago?"

"Ah, yes." It's been a few days, and she just asked.

Wu and Lu Yuzhu looked at each other and asked, "Who is the person with you? How do you know him?"

Su Qing'an looked at Lu Yuzhu and saw that she was expectant. After thinking for a while, she said, "That's the young master of the Jixiang Shop. I wanted to buy cakes for the children. He heard that I was the owner of the vegetable shop, so he said he wanted to go to the shop to have a look, so I took him back to the shop."

Wu didn't say anything. Lu Yuzhu looked at her mother and saw that her mother was slow and didn't ask the reason, so she asked, "What's his last name and name? Is he married?"

Looking at the spring on Lu Yuzhu's face, Su Qing'an understood, "I didn't ask those questions, but when he saw the peaches in the shop, he said his son liked to eat them very much. So, I think he should be married."

"Ah? How did he get married?"

Su Qing'an didn't say anything. Mrs. Wu seemed to have expected this, and looked at Lu Yuzhu: "Rich families talk about marriage earlier than ordinary families, and some even arrange marriages for the sake of interests."

Lv Yuzhu was not convinced: "He only said that he had a son, but he didn't say that his wife liked him. Maybe it was born by the concubine."

"You..."

Mrs. Wu was about to say something, but when she saw Su Qing'an still standing there, she said to Su Qing'an in a friendly manner: "You've been tired all day, and you're pregnant. Go back and rest."

"Yes." Su Qing'an replied and turned away.

Is he interested in Xu Shaoyan? And he went to investigate? He asked her because he hadn't investigated yet? Tsk tsk…

After watching Su Qingmei leave, Mrs. Wu looked at Lu Yuzhu with a look of disappointment: "I told you not to ask, but you insisted. Look, Mrs. Su must be watching you from behind."

"What's so funny? Besides, even if she knew, would she dare to tell others? She's not afraid that she won't be able to stay in our family!"

Mrs. Wu stroked her forehead: "Calm down, look at the families that your mother has found for you, and choose one to marry. Then I'll ask your father to give you more dowry, and buy you some dowry land to keep you going, which is better than anything else."

"What's so good about it! How much does your father have? How much can he give me! Not even as much as one finger of hers."

Mrs. Wu was furious: "Didn't you hear Mrs. Su say that she has a son? She got married a long time ago, and our family is not up to the standard of her."

"Why not! The emperor also married a peasant girl. And having a son doesn't necessarily mean getting married. Many rich families have concubines!"

"You already have concubines and concubines, but you still want to get married!"

"Concubines and concubines are just men's toys."

"You, you child, why don't you listen!"

"I won't listen! Anyway, I don't like the families you mentioned." After saying that, she ran away.

Wu was left alone in the messy hall, sighing.

Su Qingmei returned to her room, washed up and went to bed. Before going to bed, she felt that with Lu Yuzhu's character, she would not give up even if she told her that Xu Shaoyan was married.

She would probably come to find her again, so she'd better come back later next time.

As she expected, although Lu Yuzhu felt that the young master of Linlang Pavilion was richer, the Jixiang Cake Shop was no match for a cake shop, and how could it be compared with a jewelry store selling gold, silver and jade!

But the young master of Linlang Pavilion rarely came to Fengting Town, and when he came, he stayed upstairs. She was stopped many times, but she couldn't go up, and couldn't even see him.

Seeing the young master of the Jixiang Shop, he thought he was more handsome and thought he could be considered as a candidate.

So, for a period of time, Lu Shengcai saw his daughter running to Lu's Grocery Store every day, and he was very confused. When he asked her, she said that she was going to get married and wanted to learn to read the account book.

Lu Shengcai was very happy and took the account book to explain it to her item by item.

Although she agreed with her mouth, her eyes were looking at the pastry shop across the street, hoping to see that handsome figure again.

On this day, she finally waited for him.
