Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 5
Chapter 5 Handsome Youth
Su Wanwan could sense Zhen Xiuxiu’s psychological changes. Well, this was a good sign.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. We’ll be fine in the future.”
“Yes, I am.”
Su Wanwan wiped away Zhen Xiuxiu’s tears, and Su Jinchao clenched his fists and said! He hated the Su Family! He had long wanted to leave!
Su Jinchao swore in his heart that after leaving the Su Clan, he would definitely find a way to support his mother, feed his younger siblings, and save up a dowry for his younger sister!
“And me, and me.”
The two little ones also loudly promised.
Zhen Xiuxiu smiled with tears in her eyes. So what if he didn’t have Su Daqiang? She had children that she was proud of!
The family gathered their spirits and walked towards the orphanage.
After about an incense stick of time, they walked to the orphanage, and Su Wanwan knocked on the door.
She knew from the original owner’s memories that there was an old lady living in the orphanage. It was said that her fiance had died on the battlefield back then. She was unwilling to listen to her parents’ words and marry someone else. She became a self-combing girl and had lived in the orphanage for more than forty years.
Truth be told, Su Wanwan admired the old lady. She could make such a terrifying decision at the age of seventeen and live a life comparable to that of a nun for forty years.
“Who is it?”
Not long after, the door opened. It was opened by an old lady with a thin figure and clean eyes.
“Granny Jiang, it’s me.” Granny was the old self-combing woman’s name.
Zhen Xiuxiu knew this old lady and briefly explained the reason why they had come here.
Old Madame Jiang looked at them with pity in her eyes and said, “Come in. I’m the only one living here now, so you can be my companion when you come. However, the conditions here are simple and crude, so I’m afraid that you won’t get used to living here.”
Su Wanwan helped Zhen Xiuxiu in. She smiled and said to Old Madame Jiang, “This place is much better than the Tiger Wolf Nest. Thank you, Granny Jiang, for letting us live here.”
Old Madame Jiang narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Wanwan. “Little girl is very talkative.”
Su Wanwan smiled.
Old Madame Jiang brought them in and pointed to the rooms. “You can stay here and share it with yourself. Is that all you have? Fortunately, although it’s a bit bitter here, the living things aren’t bad. The stove room is there, the firewood is there, and there’s a well behind it …”
As she spoke slowly, Su Wanwan could see that she was very happy. Probably because he had been lonely for decades, now he had someone to accompany him!
Zhen Xiuxiu gently sniffed and arranged for her children’s room.
Although there weren’t many rooms in the orphanage, it was enough for their mothers to live in!
“Wow, this is bigger than our previous home!”
“Mother, will I really only live with Big Brother in the future?”
Su Xiaoyan and Su Jinming entered the room and quickly came out, cheering happily.
Especially Su Jinming. After learning that he and his big brother were in the same room in the future, he didn’t need to squeeze four siblings into a big bunk. He was so happy that he danced and danced.
Zhen Xiuxiu’s nose turned sour again, and she answered them. Then, she had to prepare dinner for tonight.
Ai!
When they left the Su Clan, all they had was a few clothes and a few books from Su Jinqiang! There was not a single grain!
“Granny Jiang, let me discuss something with you …”
Zhen Xiuxiu wanted to discuss with Old Madame Jiang. She would first borrow her food today and return it to Old Madame Jiang after she went to the town tomorrow to pay her last dowry-the silver hairpin that the Su Family would never forget.
Of course, he had to take on more work!
Old Madame Jiang waved her hand and said, “Take the food for yourself. We’ll talk about it later.”
Zhen Xiuxiu was extremely grateful, repeatedly expressing that she would definitely return the food tomorrow.
Su Wanwan wanted to help Zhen Xiuxiu cook, but she was rejected, so she went to help her big brother and siblings clean up the house.
Although Old Madame Jiang lived here alone, these rooms were all cleaned up very cleanly. There were beds and tables in the room, but there were no blankets. There were only mattresses woven from brown hemp leaves on the naked bed.
Dinner is ready. Zhen Xiuxiu invited Old Madame Jiang to have dinner with her. Old Madame Jiang wasn’t courteous either. She was very concerned about them and even took out two beds to be given to them after dinner.
Although the quilt was thin and the cover was still a little cold in March, Zhen Xiuxiuniang and the others felt warm in their hearts.
Old Madame Jiang took the blanket and went back to her room. She did not light the light quietly and did not know whether she was asleep or not.
Su Wanwan was in the same room as Zhen Xiuxiu and Su Xiaoyan. Mother Three was lying on a bed made of old clothes and covered with a thin blanket.
“Wanwan, I’ll go to town to buy food tomorrow. You guys have to be obedient at home.”
Zhen Xiuxiu gave most of the blankets to Su Wanwan and Su Xiaoyan. Speaking of the word “home”, Zhen Xiuxiu’s heart was filled with sadness.
She had left the Su Clan for quite some time, but Su Daqiang had never seen a trace … It seemed that she really should give up completely.
“Yes.” Su Wanwan nodded.
“Mother, what should we do in the future?”
Su Xiaoyan’s voice was timid. She liked living here, afraid that her father would find them!
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here. Be good, go to sleep.”
Zhen Xiuxiu patted the back of her little daughter who was sleeping in the middle and coaxed her into falling asleep.
Su Wanwan also closed her eyes, but she was not sleepy at all, and her heart was crackling.
In the second half of the night, Su Wanwan quietly got up, tiptoed out of the orphanage and walked towards the back mountain.
The time has come to set out for a better life!
“Squeak.”
Su Wanwan walked to a mountain depression and made a strange sound. Under the bright moonlight, a cute mountain mouse appeared in front of her.
“Here.” Su Wanwan took out a small handful of melon seeds from her pocket and placed them in front of the mountain rat.
Doubt flashed through the little eyes of the mountain rat, but he quickly understood and happily ate all the melon seeds into his mouth.
Then the mountain rat squeaked a few times, and Su Wanwan asked him a few questions. The Mountain Rat nodded in a very humane manner and took a few steps in a certain direction.
“Well, thank you! There’s something I can help you with in the future, you’re welcome!” When Su Wanwan received the news from its mouth, her heart blossomed with joy.
I didn’t expect, ah, that her luck would be so good! There was actually a ginseng in the back mountain! She quietly came out to look for an animal to ask if there were any valuable mountain goods in the back mountain. Tomorrow, she and Mother would go to town to sell them.
Ginseng, what a pleasant surprise!
After following the Mountain Rat around seven turns and eight turns, he walked for almost half an hour until he reached the location of the ginseng.
“Not bad.” When Su Wanwan saw that the ginseng’s eyes lit up, she bent down and dug with her hands.
“Don’t move!”
Unexpectedly, before Su Wanwan could dig twice, a clear shout sounded out. Then, a figure quickly rushed over and grabbed Su Wanwan’s wrist!
Su Wanwan was shocked. She did not waste words when she was pulled up by this person. Her other elbow on one side of her body quickly smashed towards the opposite door.
“Hiss.”
The visitor did not expect Su Wan Wan to retaliate, so she was shocked and quickly released her hand and jumped backwards. She almost touched the girl’s elbow with his face!
Su Wanwan missed the blow and was very dissatisfied in her heart. If it was her body in the apocalypse, this person’s face would definitely blossom!
“Who are you? Why did you steal my ginseng?”
Under the moonlight, a handsome youth looked at Su Wanwan angrily.
