The Sickly General's Wife With A Spatial Ability Is Loved By All - Chapter 142

142 Family Unity

Liu Yinyin became teary-eyed from excitement. She never imagined her children would be able to attend school one day. Such an occasion was something to look forward to, and she knew it was all because of her sister-in-law.

“Thank you so much, Binglan!” Liu Yinyin bowed.

Su Binglan shook her head and said, “There’s no need to thank me, Sister-in-law. We’re family, after all. Xuexuan and Xuehai will study well in the future, and as their aunt, I only want to bask in their glory.”

She deliberately said these words in a relaxed tone because she did not want Liu Yinyin to feel pressured.

!!
Liu Yinyin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, “Don’t worry, Binglan. I know Xuexuan and Xuehai will remember your kindness.” She pulled her children over when she said that.

Then she continued thoughtfully, “Thanks to your aunt, you can both go to school now. You must always remember what she did for you, understand?”

Su Binglan did not expect her sister-in-law to be so severe. “I-I was only joking, Sister-in-law. Don’t pressure the little ones.”

She never thought much about it and only felt the two children should get as much education as possible.

Su Xuexuan said seriously, “Thank you, Aunt Binglan. I’ll study hard and take the imperial exams so I can treat you well in the future.”

Su Xuehai raised his hand and said, “I will too!”

Su Binglan looked at the two children’s earnest expressions and felt a warmth in her heart. She always felt that giving was meaningful, and they could do anything as a united family.

She squatted down and gently pulled the little ones closer to her. Then she said softly, “I want you to go to school so you can understand what it is to be a responsible person and how to carry yourselves. However, you shouldn’t pressure yourselves to gain knowledge. Treat learning as a fun experience, understand?”

Su Binglan did not want to burden the children and did not want them to study too hard. Still, she knew there would be no motivation without a bit of pressure.

‘Sigh, it’s pretty difficult to expect too much from children.’

Su Wenzhe said thoughtfully, “Do you remember what your aunt said?”

“Yes, father,” the two children said in unison.

Su Binglan patted their heads and said, “You’re good boys.”

Indeed, Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai were sensible and obedient. When they went to the shop in the morning, they did not cry and make a fuss. Instead, they even helped around.

Su Binglan noticed it all, and her heart ached for them. She was reluctant to let the two children help, but she thought that allowing them to be more independent would help them understand what it was like to be responsible.

She said, “All right, we’ve earned quite a lot of money today, so let’s celebrate by eating delicious food tonight! I’ll cook them myself.”

Everyone at home had witnessed Su Binglan’s culinary skills, so they looked forward to eating her food. As such, everyone instantly busied themselves with helping her.

Some collected firewood, while others started a fire. However, Su Wenzhe had to continue grinding soybeans and making tofu he would sell the following morning.

Su Binglan said, “Father, Big Brother, don’t tire yourselves out.”

Su Fengmao simply smiled and said, “I won’t. On a day like this, I have plenty of energy to work and something to strive for.”

“Father is right. I feel energized too!” Su Wenzhe said.

Everyone had been busy the whole day and was in a good mood, so they ate a lot while chatting happily.

Su Binglan genuinely enjoyed the atmosphere, while everyone else implicitly did not ask her about her acupuncture treatment when Chen Zhuzhu fainted.

Still, Su Binglan took the initiative to speak about it, “You guys, I typically don’t perform acupuncture so casually. I just happen to know some medical skills.”

Everyone stopped eating and looked at Su Binglan, but there was no doubt in their eyes. They just habitually listened to her.
