Madam Liu became thoughtful when she saw the expression on Su Wenchi’s face. She felt he was indeed at the age to talk about marriage since he was sixteen.
She lay on the heated platform at night and could not help but tell her husband about this, “A matchmaker came here before and told me about the girls in the surrounding villages. I don’t know much about those girls since I haven’t sent anyone to inquire about them.
“What do you think? Should we send someone to do that? If we like what we hear, should we let Wenchi meet them?”
Madam Liu knew Su Fengzhi had seen and experienced the outside world many years ago, so he would have his ideas. Still, she had to listen to her husband on such matters. After all, she could not be careless regarding matters related to her youngest son.
Su Fengzhi said, “It’s best if he married a virtuous girl since a good wife is essential. Look at our family, for example. Our days can only improve when we’re harmonious.
“Whether it’s my eldest sister-in-law or my second sister-in-law, they’re both good people. Only then can our family help each other and not argue. Tongtong has studied before, and her family is legitimate.
“She was still willing to stay with Wenlin even when we weren’t doing well.
She’s even more focused on living her life and being considerate toward
Wenlin, which is the best a man could ask for.”
Madam Liu understood what her husband meant. “I get it now. I wanted to show that to Wenchi in the past, but we weren’t doing well. There were a few suitable girls for him then, but they were unwilling to marry him yet.
“Since our conditions have improved now, they should be more interested.
Indeed, it’s a bit of a dislike for the poor and a love for the rich, but we can’t say they were wrong for that. After all, those girls want to live good lives too.
“I’m just concerned that things might change, and girls like those won’t stick around with Wenchi.”
Su Fengzhi nodded and said, “You’re right. It’s best if they’re reasonable and also well-educated. Then they will focus more on living a good life with Wenchi. Of course, Wenchi needs to like them too.”
After some thought, Madam Liu said, “Why don’t you ask Wenchi to help you at your shop? Maybe someone will see how good Wenchi is and go home to tell their daughters about him.”
Su Fengzhi comforted his wife, saying, “Don’t be too anxious. Just wait and see. Our family will keep improving, and we will rise together. When the time comes, Wenchi will meet a good girl.”
Madam Liu knew her husband had a vision for their family. She nodded after listening to his words. “What you said makes sense. Our family’s conditions have improved in just a short time, and it’s better than when you were a chef in Beijing.
“You weren’t home then, but you can still earn money even though you’re home now. I would say that’s pretty good, right?”
Madam Liu became emotional as she continued, “I never expected our family to be able to own a shop. Even my two brothers are grateful to us. They said they made the right choice in letting me marry into the Su family.”
Su Fengzhi said smilingly, “Your family’s conditions were good when your father was around, so I didn’t think you would like me then.”
Madam Liu could not help but laugh when she thought of the past. “Back then, my father said the Su family had a good air about them and that they were a good family. He knew a family like yours would live better lives than most. “He also said you had excellent cooking skills and worked hard. He saw that I would never go hungry. The most important thing is that my father knew you would treat me well.”
She had never said these things before, so Su Fengzhi had no idea. After hearing his wife’s words, his heart pounded as he said, “Thank you.”
He was grateful that Madam Liu had chosen him back then. She was beautiful and had many assets, so most boys liked her. Still, she chose Su Fengzhi, and he could not believe it. When he married Madam Liu, he knew he wanted to give her a good life.
Madam Liu smacked his hand with a reproachful expression. “Why are you being so polite?”
“I was wrong for being so decadent in the past. Let’s live good lives from now on,” Su Fengzhi said.
Madam Liu said, “That’s all in the past now. As you said, the Su family will only keep improving.”
Ding Wan woke up the following morning and felt much better since she slept comfortably this time. She felt her appetite had grown after enjoying the porridge last night.
Su Binglan even told Su Wenwu to send them tofu pudding for breakfast. When it was almost noon, Su Fengchen sent some grilled chicken and roast duck to Ding Wan and her family. Even Su Wenlin sent them barbecued lamb skewers.
Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian were stunned when they smelled the rich fragrances and saw so much delicious food. They felt like they were hallucinating.
“Can our family really make so many delicious foods?!”
Su Wenxian gulped. “They smell so good too!”
Ding Wan looked at the father-son duo and said smilingly, “You guys can eat those since everyone gave these to us. Don’t let them down, and enjoy their food.”
Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian’s tears were about to flow as they ate the grilled chicken, roast duck, and barbecued lamb skewers.
“Sob, they’re so delicious.”
“I believe it’s true that my three younger brothers’ lives are improving.”
“With such delicious food) it will be a hit if they sell it.” Su Wenxian no longer cared about being elegant as he wolfed down his food.
Ding Wan looked at the duo eating happily and smiled.
“Home is always the best place to be, and I always feel at ease.”
“Yeah, I can even sleep soundly.”
The family could never sleep well when they traveled as they often slept outdoors to save money. Either that or they would live in farmhouses.
Su Binglan went to their house in the afternoon to deliver medicine and give Ding Wan her acupuncture treatment.
Ding Wan held her niece’s hand and said gratefully, “I’m feeling better thanks to you, Binglan. I realized how much clearer I could see.”
That was what she was most excited about. She even wondered if her eyes were even better than ever.
“Your condition wasn’t that serious, Aunt Ding. You can see things more clearly in a few days, and then you can embroider again. However, I suggest you stop sewing in the dark because it strains your eyes.
“You can’t tire yourself out either and must ensure you get enough rest. You need rest and so do your eyes.”
Ding Wan attentively listened to her niece. “I understand, Binglan.”
A few days later, Ding Wan felt perfect after Su Binglan’s medical and acupuncture treatments. Ding Wan could even move about and cook.
Although her body was still a little weak, the family felt good to have Ding Wan back to her usual self finally. Most importantly, she could see things more clearly. She was so excited that her hands were trembling.
“This is perfect! I can see so well now!” Ding Wan was typically reserved and would only faintly smile, even if she were happy. It was rare for her to be this excited until her voice trembled whenever she spoke.
“Mom, can you see better now?” Su Wenxian was also excited as he widened his eyes and looked at his mother, wanting to confirm it again.
Ding Wan nodded. “Yes, I can! You and your father were standing far away when you entered the door, but I saw you two more clearly. Quick, get me a needle and thread. I want to see if I can thread the needle.”
That was what she was concerned about the most. It would be terrific if she could thread the needle..
