The two families chatted and laughed as they returned home.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao looked at each other. Their gazes were gentle, and their hearts were warm and calm.

After a day of fun, the days returned to normal.

During the day, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao went to the shop while Chen Hu and Madam Qian made sauerkraut and pickles at home.

Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng went out early and returned late to study. Chen Shi went to school every day.

Su Xiaolu began to practice her sword crazily. Through her trip to Furongzhou, she knew that her skills were not invincible. The martial world was so big and there were so many experts. The greater her skills, the better.

She was already 11 years old. After the Spring Quarter Examinations, she would also make a trip to the capital to detoxify Zhou Heng’s poison for the first time. When she was done, it would be time for her to travel the world.

At that time, the Spring Quarter Examinations would be almost over.

In the past few years, the old man had not come to look for her. If he did not look for her, then she would look for her Master.

On the first day of December, the Sun residence sent news that Su Hua and Sun Baoqian’s birth characters were very compatible. They were set to be engaged on the 22nd of December.

After the news was confirmed, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao began to prepare.

At night, Madam Zhao said to Su Sanlang, “Sanlang, we still have more than 700 taels of silver at home. How much do you think is appropriate?”

After buying this house and moving to town for more than a year, all his belongings were here.

He had to keep a portion of this silver. Su Xiaoling and Su Chong were still at home.

After dividing it into three portions, there were only about 200 taels left.

Su Sanlang pulled Madam Zhao’s hand and patted it gently. “Darling, don’t worry. The Sun family knows what’s going on in our family. Let’s take 280 taels and leave the rest for Chong and Xiaoling. Xiaolu is still young and can wait for us to save up for a few more years.”

They were not rich to begin with. If the Sun family cared about this, the marriage could not be settled.

When Madam Zhao heard this, the anxiety in her heart eased.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Madam Zhao stood up to open the door. It was Su Xiaoling.

“Mother.”

Su Xiaoling smiled and greeted them before entering the room.

Su Xiaoling held a box.

Su Xiaoling walked to Su Sanlang’s side. After Madam Zhao came over, she handed the box to Madam Zhao and Su Sanlang and said, “Father, mother, this is what I’ve saved up over the past few years. Use it to marry Sun Baoqian to Second Brother.”

Every year, tens of thousands of taels of silver were given to her for the scar removal medicine. This was after she controlled the amount of ointment. Over the past few years, she had accumulated 80,000 taels of silver. The reason why she took out these silver notes now was so that Su Hua could get engaged in a glorious manner.

Madam Zhao’s eyes were filled with heartache. She pushed the box back to Su Xiaoling and said, “Xiaoling, just keep it. We don’t want it.”

Su Sanlang also said, “Your mother is right. You worked hard to get this. Father and Mother can’t and won’t take it. Your mother and I have plans for your second brother to get married.”

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao refused to accept this money.

Madam Zhao closed the box and placed it back in Su Xiaoling’s palm. Madam Zhao said gently, “Silly girl, keep this money well. You’ll have confidence when you get married in the future. I don’t know who you’ll marry in the future, but with this money, you can marry anyone. Only then can I be at ease.”

Su Xiaoling still wanted to say something, but Madam Zhao pulled her out of the room.

Madam Zhao said gently, “I understand your kindness, but I don’t want it. Just keep it.”

Su Xiaoling pursed her lips. Madam Zhao sent her out and gently smoothed Su Xiaoling’s hair. “Go back and rest.”

Su Xiaoling nodded.

She returned to the room and sighed softly as she looked at Su Xiaolu, who was already asleep.

Su Xiaolu had been practicing her swordsmanship too much recently. Her arms were swollen every day.

At night, she would subconsciously snore. Su Xiaoling slept lightly and would massage Su Xiaolu every time to let her sleep better.

Su Xiaolu originally had some baby fat, but after returning from Furongzhou, her chin had become sharp and had never been replaced. She was like a new branch drawn in spring. She had lost weight.

Su Xiaoling gently pinched Su Xiaolu’s arm and whispered, “Father and Mother don’t want this money either. I don’t know how to repay this family.”

What responded to Su Xiaoling was Su Xiaolu’s faint snoring.

Time passed quickly. Days passed, and soon, it was the day of Su Hua and Sun Baoqian’s engagement.

It could be said to be very lively.

The entire Goathorn Town was in an uproar. Everyone was discussing this marriage.

Some people said that Su Hua was really lucky.

Some people said that the Sun residence had taken a fancy to Su Hua’s talent.

No matter what others said, Su Hua and Sun Baoqian were engaged.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao’s eyes were red.

Chen Hu and Madam Qian stood beside Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao and helped greet the guests.

Su Xiaozhi was also here. She had mixed feelings and did not know what to say.

Madam Cao brought Hu Changshou and Hu Changyang along. Hu Shuangshuang was getting married after the new year, so it was inconvenient for her to go out, so she did not come.

Madam Cao sincerely congratulated Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao before bringing her two grandsons to their seats.

Seeing that Su Xiaozhi was in low spirits, Madam Cao frowned and said coldly, “Xiaozhi, if you don’t want to eat this meal, you can either go shopping or go back.”

Su Xiaozhi was a little indignant. “Mother, I’m doing this for Xiaoshou and Xiaoyang. I’m not doing this for myself.”

Madam Cao frowned. “Xiaozhi, you’re getting more and more foolish. I can’t be bothered to talk to you anymore. You don’t have to worry about Xiaoshou and Xiaoyang. If you’re still like this, go back.”

Madam Cao had already given up on Su Xiaozhi. Su Xiaozhi never listened to her.

On the other hand, the more Su Xiaozhi thought about what Madam Wang said, the more she believed it.

Su Sanlang had never let them down. However, under Madam Wang’s lecture, Su Xiaozhi felt that Su Sanlang had done something wrong and not done enough!

A while ago, the Su family had inexplicably developed abscesses. Old Master Su had brought Madam Wang and her two sons away from the family, and Madam Wang had also settled down. Perhaps it was because the abscesses were torturing people, but she did not have the time to look for Su Xiaozhi.

Madam Wang had settled down, but Su Xiaozhi was becoming more and more restless. The current Su Xiaozhi was becoming more and more like Madam Wang.

Since Madam Cao couldn’t persuade her, she didn’t want to say anything either. She said many things directly.

Su Xiaozhi originally felt indignant and wanted to argue, but seeing Madam Cao’s serious expression, she swallowed her words and smiled.

Although she did not look good, it was better than a cold face. Madam Cao ignored her.

After dinner, she would just go back early.

The engagement went smoothly.

Both families were overjoyed.

After dinner, Madam Cao brought Su Xiaozhi and her two grandsons back. After leaving the city gate, Su Xiaozhi suddenly sighed. “If only Xiaoshou could marry a rich young lady in the future.”

Madam Cao frowned at Su Xiaozhi.

Hu Changshou said calmly, “Mother, I don’t want to marry a rich young lady. I don’t have any skills or talents like Second Brother Su. How can I be worthy of a rich young lady? I just want to marry an ordinary woman who treats me and my family sincerely.”
