Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although Lin Qin and the others were reluctant, Su Binglan and the rest had to return to Su Teng Village.
Lin Qin wanted to pack some things for them but realized she had nothing much to offer. Shen Qiuhua had brought the things she had at home. However, Lin Qin had made some rice cakes for her Goddaughter and the others.
Shen Qiuhua accepted the rice cakes and said, “Your rice cakes are the best, Mother.’
Lin Qin was happy to hear that. She had always wanted to treat her Goddaughter well, but it was hard to do so in the past. When her family’s life improved, she would buy fabric to make clothes for Shen Qiuhua.
Lin Qin could also buy ingredients to make her Goddaughter’s favorite childhood foods.contemporary romance
Shen Qiuhua knew her Godparents missed her. She was also reluctant to leave, thinking it would be great if they were constantly beside her.
“Father, Mother, remember to send me letters if you need help, okay? Visit us when you have time. Our house is big, so you can stay for a few days.”
Soon, Shen Qiuhua reluctantly got into the carriage and left. She lifted the curtain and looked toward Blossom Village as the carriage moved away. She continued to look back until she could no longer see her Godparents.
Su Binglan sensed her mother’s disappointment and understood how she felt.
‘If I lived far away from my parents and could barely see them, I’d miss them too.’
Su Binglan looked at her mother and said, “If you miss Grandpa and Grandma, you can use the carriage to visit them more often. We can also fetch them from there and bring them to Su Teng Village.
“You were always worried about Aunt Ma last time, right? Her attitude is much better now, so you no longer have to worry about her mistreating
Grandpa and Grandma.”
Shen Qiuhua felt more at ease when she heard her daughter’s words.
Yeah, I can visit my Godparents more often now. It won’t take long since we have the carriage. It’s also not as troublesome to travel there as before. Since Madam Ma’s attitude has improved, I’m sure she won’t mind me visiting so often.’
Shen Qiuhua smiled when she thought of it. She said, “l was too sad that I didn’t even consider those things.”
Su Binglan felt sorry for her mother and said, “Were you sad when you left?”
“Yeah, I couldn’t bear to part with them. 1 just wanted to stay and spend more time with them. I consider them my biological parents because they’ve always treated me well.
“l lived a relaxed and happy life in Blossom Village when 1 was younger.
Whenever I visited them for the New Year, I would feel nervous. Our family wasn’t doing well then, and I couldn’t bring many gifts to my Godparents.
“l wanted to help them, but we had little. I felt guilty that I couldn’t bring them much. Still, I would feel reluctant to part with them and return to Su Teng Village after visiting them.”
Shen Qiuhua always remembered her difficult past. However, she smiled when she thought about her current days. She said, “It’s good that our family’s living conditions have improved.
“l can bring my Godparents more than enough things whenever I visit now. I feel I can be a more dutiful Goddaughter now. I will do my best to be filial and be at ease instead of feeling guilty.
“Binglan, you helped them so much. Soon, your grandparents won’t worry about Shen Zhishan and Jiang Nainai. I’m happy to see that.” Shen Qiuhua held Su Binglan’s hand and looked at her with gratitude.
She was proud of her daughter. She would not dare wonder what her life would have been like without Su Binglan.
Shen Qiuhua knew it was good to be capable. With that, she could be good to the people around her and help them.
Su Binglan looked into her mother’s eyes. Although the mother and daughter did not say anything, they understood each other’s thoughts and feelings. Su
Binglan hugged her mother, saying, “Things will be better. Then, we can bring
Grandpa and the others to live in Su Teng Village.”
Shen Qiuhua said smilingly, “You’re the most capable, Binglan.”
She had never dared to think such things before. However, she became more confident in herself and her family. In the past, many thought the Su family had spoiled Su Binglan.
These days, everyone was envious that the Su family had such a capable daughter like Su Binglan.
It was almost midnight when Su Binglan and the rest arrived at Su Teng Village. Although the carriage traveled at full speed, Blossom Village was far away.
Su Fengmao sighed in relief when he saw Su Teng Village from afar. He felt it was better to be home. Although he felt slightly uncomfortable staying in Blossom Village, he did not complain to his wife.
He was happy as long as Shen Qiuhua was happy. Moreover, Su Fengmao’s heart ached for her. She was originally a daughter of a wealthy family and could enjoy a life of luxury.
Although Su Fengmao could not give her such a life, he would buy her whatever she wanted now that his family was well-off. He wanted to give
Shen Qiuhua a more relaxed life.
Still, Shen Qiuhua had been in good spirits all these years. Her husband doted on her, and her in-laws and children treated her well. She felt even more content now that her family was well-off.
Although it was still winter, the sky was clear. The moon and stars shined brightly that night. The family marveled at Su Teng Village from afar. Unknowingly, Su Binglan felt a sense of dependence on this place.
“Home is the best place to be,” she said.
“It is,” Su Fengmao said, “l always feel at ease here.”
“It’s already midnight,” Shen Qiuhua added, “Everyone should be asleep by now. Wait, are the lights still on in our house?”
Su Binglan narrowed her eyes. “It’s already so late, Why aren’t they asleep yet?”
Su Wenzhe, Liu Yinyin, Su Wenxiu, and Su Wenwu stayed home while Su Binglan and the rest visited Blossom Village. The latter few would usually be asleep by then, which puzzled Su Binglan and the rest.
Luo Jin’an sped up the carriage, and it alerted the dogs. Those in the carriage felt a sense of familiarity when they heard the dogs barking. It made them feel more at home..
