Chapter 140: Celebration Chapter 140
Today was not only about completely resolving the issue of her second sister, Su Ningxiu, but it also taught the Tao family a deserved lesson. All in all, these were matters worth celebrating.
Su Yunjin thought it was a good reason to celebrate properly. “Dad, Mom, since my second sister is safe now, shouldn’t we celebrate properly?”
“Yun girl, we should indeed celebrate! Well, there are still two fish in the kitchen. Today at noon, I’ll kill one more fish and we will have braised fish for lunch,” Mrs. Shen said beamingly.
Su Zhongshi had originally felt some sympathy when he saw Su Xiaofu being forcibly taken to the Huang Residence to become a concubine, but after hearing his daughter Su Yunjin’s words, he no longer sympathized with Su Xiaofu.
His daughter was right, if it hadn’t been for Su Xiaofu today, it would have been his own Ningxiu being taken as a concubine to Old Master Huang. Su Zhongshi grew furious at just the thought of his daughter possibly becoming a concubine for Old Master Huang.
No matter what, being able to protect his daughter and not letting her be sold to the Huang Residence by the Tao family was indeed something to be happy about.
With cheerful enthusiasm, Su Zhongshi also said, “We should celebrate. Just in time, my son-in-law brought me some wine. Today at noon, I’ll have a good drink with my son-in-law.”
The village had many rivers, and not only could you catch fish from them, but also crabs and shrimp. Su Ningxiu, feeling lively suggested to Su Yunjin, “Little sister, why don’t we go catch some crabs in the river? If we do, we can add another dish to our lunch. What do you think?”
Su Xiaobao loved catching crabs in the river the most. Without waiting for Su Yunjin’s agreement, he nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes! Second sister, let’s get a basket and catch some crabs right now.”
Bringing a basket made it easy to collect the crabs caught in the river. With a bit of luck, one could fill a basket with crabs by the end of the morning.
“Little sister, are you coming?” Su Xiaobao was insistent on going, and Su Ningxiu didn’t forget to ask for their little sister’s opinion. Su Yunjin could tell that second sister Su Ningxiu wanted to go, and with Su Xiaobao being so eager, she didn’t want to dampen her second sister and little brother’s spirits. She was also interested in exploring around since she hadn’t had the chance to properly see the village since coming to the Su family.
Accompanying her second sister and Su Xiaobao, Su Yunjin could use this opportunity to have a good look around the vicinities of the village. She nodded her head and agreed, “Mm, second sister, let’s go catch some crabs together.”
“Great, third sister agreed,” Su Xiaobao said, afraid that Su Yunjin might not agree. Seeing that she did, Su Xiaobao jumped with joy.
Watching Su Xiaobao’s happy antics, Su Yunjin also smiled. She hadn’t forgotten Gu Ya and turned to glance at him, “Husband, I’m going out with my second sister and the others to catch crabs, do you want to come along?”
“Yun girl, you go ahead! I won’t come,” Gu Ya decided not to go. Su Yunjin didn’t insist and left with just her second sister Su Ningxiu and the others.
Su Xiaobao, holding the basket, hopped and skipped ahead while Su Yunjin and her sister Su Ningxiu followed behind.
Suddenly, the leading Su Xiaobao stopped, and Su Ningxiu’s face also changed at this moment. Su Yunjin found it strange, just about to ask what was the matter with her second sister, when she saw the man walking towards them!
The man paused upon seeing Su Yunjin.
Perhaps he hadn’t expected to see her.
What do you think?
