Chapter 116 - First Day of School

Zhou Heng was naturally happy to help. He wrote Su Chong and Su Hua’s names on the bags in charcoal.

By nightfall, Su Chong and Su Hua would have their book bags.

From tomorrow onwards, Su Chong and Su Hua will start going to school. They would have to walk for more than four hours every day. They would definitely have a hard year ahead.

However, they were not afraid of this at all. Because their hearts were filled with the desire for knowledge, they could deal with all difficulties.

Su Chong and Su Hua took the book bag and immediately carried it on their backs. They remembered everything they had seen in the school. Now that they had a book bag, they would be students in the future.

Su Hua touched the elegant orchid on the book bag and said to Su Xiaoling, “Third Sister, thank you. When we learn knowledge in school, we’ll teach you when we come home.”

Su Chong also smiled and added, “Yes, yes, yes, yes. Third Sister also likes to study. Hua and I will come back to teach him.”

After saying that, Su Chong looked at Zhou Heng and said embarrassedly, “Little Brother Heng, you know a lot…”

Su Chong was about to say, “Then I won’t teach you,” but before he could finish, Zhou Heng spoke first.

Zhou Heng smiled and said, “Ah Chong, Ah Hua, before my family comes to pick me up, teach me the knowledge you learned when you come back. Let’s learn it together.”

Su Chong and Su Hua naturally agreed.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao looked at each other and smiled. There was no question. They were also very happy, happy about everything.

Su Xiaolu was in Sun residence. At night, she performed acupuncture for the Sun family as usual.

She already knew her two brothers would be enrolled, and she was genuinely pleased.

Her eldest brother was already 15 years old, and her second brother was 14 years old. Compared to normal people who started going to school at the age of six or seven, they were many years late.

Her two brothers were so smart. Now that they had a chance, they would make something of themselves.

Su Xiaolu was happy just thinking about it.

She was very happy and kept smiling. Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian could not help but smile.

Sun Baoshan asked softly, “Xiaolu, did something good happen to you?”

Sun Baoqian also wanted to ask, but she had been holding back. Now that her brother asked, she immediately looked at Su Xiaolu expectantly.

Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “That’s right. My big brother and second brother can go to school now. I’m happy for them. I even ate an extra bowl of rice tonight.”

When she found out about this, she jumped up and down happily. She hugged Old Wu and shouted happily.

Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian also smiled. Sun Baoshan said, “That’s really good news.”

He felt good to hear it, too.

Sun Baoqian was also happy for Su Xiaolu.

Madam Lian saw everything. She knew that her two children were too lonely and had no friends. They now treated Su Xiaolu as a friend, so when Su Xiaolu had something to be happy about, they were also happy for her.

It was said that the mood was the most important thing. When one was in a good mood, everything could be solved.

Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian were happy. Under the treatment of the divine doctor and his disciple, their bodies would get better and better.

Su Xiaolu gave them acupuncture and ran to the other side to learn a new acupuncture technique.

When the time came, she went over to retrieve the needles from the three of them. Then, she returned to the courtyard to eat supper and pack up the silver needles before going to sleep.

She still had to go to school to see her big brother and second brother tomorrow.

December 12th was Su Chong and Su Hua’s first day of school.

Su Sanlang paid the two copper coins for the two of them to enter the town, and gave six copper coins for them to get two bowls of noodles to eat. Madam Zhao steamed cornbread for them to eat when they were hungry.

Su Chong and Su Hua left home for school.

What they didn’t expect was that Su Xiaolu would be waiting for them outside the school.

When they saw Su Xiaolu, they smiled and ran over.

“What are you doing here, Xiaolu?”

Su Chong and Su Hua were pleasantly surprised and immediately took out the food for Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu quickly waved her hand and said, “I’m not hungry. I’m here to send you to school. It’s your first day of school. I’ll send you in.”

As she spoke, Su Xiaolu held her brothers’ hands and entered the school happily.

Su Chong and Su Hua’s enrollment made the original students size them up curiously.

But everyone just looked and didn’t even comment.

The teacher must be too strict. Su Xiaolu thought that it was not a bad thing for him to be strict.

The two extra desks were where Su Chong and Su Hua sat.

After they took their seats, the teacher had yet to arrive. Su Xiaolu was relieved after taking a look. Before Su Chong and Su Hua could ask her to go back, she said, “Big Brother and Second Brother, you guys have to study hard. I’ll go back first.”

Su Chong and Su Hua nodded.

Su Hua whispered, “Xiaolu, be careful on the road. Don’t come to see us next time. Big Brother and Second Brother will study hard.”

Su Hua reminded her worriedly. He even wanted to send Su Xiaolu back.

Su Xiaolu could tell what he was thinking and immediately nodded obediently. “Big Brother, Second Brother, don’t worry. I know the way. Master is selling herbs not far away and waiting for me. Don’t worry. I’ll go back now.”

She said that Old Wu was waiting for her. Su Xiaolu was lying.

She knew the way, and it was perfectly all right to go back and forth, but she couldn’t stop her two brothers from worrying.

No matter what, in the eyes of her two brothers, she was a sister to be protected.

With that, Su Xiaolu ran out.

Su Hua was still worried and said to Su Chong, “Big Brother, sit tight. I’ll go out and take a look.”

Thinking that there were a lot of bad guys, he was really afraid that someone was up to no good.

Su Xiaolu ran out of the school and saw Old Wu with his hands behind his back. She ran over happily. “Good master.”

When she came, she said that she was going to visit her two brothers. Old Wu had said impatiently that she was not allowed to go and that she was too troublesome.

Su Xiaolu had sneaked out. Old Wu was worried, but he couldn’t follow her openly, so he came secretly. When he saw that Su Xiaolu had also entered the school, he frowned. He looked around. The brat had finally come out.

He didn’t even have time to hide.

Old Wu pushed Su Xiaolu’s hand away and said, “Let’s go.”

Su Hua chased after her and saw Old Wu walking back with Su Xiaolu. Su Hua was relieved and returned to the school.

He happened to see Lin Pingsheng coming out of his house to prepare for class.

Su Hua was about to explain when Lin Pingsheng didn’t even look at him and said coldly, “Follow the rules. Go back and sit down.”

After Su Hua sat down, Lin Pingsheng came down and asked Su Hua to stretch out his hand to hit his palm. He said, “In the future, when you come to school, you are not allowed to go out unless you have to use the toilet. Do you understand?”

Su Hua nodded. “I understand.”

When Su Xiaolu and Old Wu returned to the Sun residence, Old Wu began to teach Su Xiaolu how to make medicinal cuisine.

Medicinal cuisine was not difficult. Old Wu asked Su Xiaolu to read medical books. Minggu Medical Valley had a lot of medical books that involved comprehensive medical knowledge. They also had a deep understanding of food therapy.
