“Mother.”

Zhong Yong scratched his head awkwardly. His mother’s sudden mention of that matter put him in a difficult position. He felt that Xiaoying only treated him as an older brother, and he also treated Xiaoying as a younger sister.

“Your father and Uncle Xiao have arranged a marriage for you. Xiaoying is your unwed wife. Mother wants you to develop your feelings for each other. I’ll go to Xiaoying’s grandfather to propose this marriage. You must work hard to make Xiaoying like you and treat her well, understand?”

Madam Li said to her son in disappointment. She had never mentioned this before because her son’s IQ.was only a few years old and was not worthy of Xiaoying. But now that Zhong Yong had been cured, she wanted to marry Xiaoying. She wanted Xiaoying to call her mother instead of Godmother.

“Mother, I understand. Please enter the house!”

Zhong Yong saw that his mother was anxious and quickly agreed. Outside, he was worried his mother would freeze, so he helped her into the house. He was even more filial than before.

Xiaoying didn’t know that she had such a betrothal as a child. She was chatting with Su Qing in the house. When she heard that Sister Su Qing had moved to Jingshi Dao, she and Madam Li looked forward to it.

His foster father’s last words were to let them go to Jingshi Dao. He said that it was good there. Seeds could grow crops if they were casually scattered in the ground. Oil could be squeezed out of the black soil.

The soil of Mo City was also black, but it could not produce oil. Xiaoying was curious if the black soil of Jingshi Dao could produce oil.

“Sister Su Qing, is it true that Godfather said that the land of Jingshi Dao can produce oil?”

Xiaoying blinked her beautiful big eyes at Su Qing, looking like a cute baby.

“Jingshi Dao’s land is as fertile as Mo City’s but can’t produce oil.”

Su Qing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Her foster father had described the land as fertile, and she had taken it seriously. Xiaoying was innocent.

Madam Li entered the room and saw the two sisters chatting. A smile appeared on her face. She also joined in the conversation. The three talked enthusiastically and seemed to be in a good mood.

Zhong Yong’s roasted mutton was delicious. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The mutton inside was tasty and juicy. Su Qing took a bite, and it tasted terrific. He praised Zhong Yong,

“Not bad, you have a talent for cooking.”

“Master likes to eat it.”

Zhong Yong was overjoyed to hear his master praise him, and his large eyes lit up.

Madam Li looked at her son and then at Xiaoying. One was tall, strong, safe, and reliable like a mountain, while the other was pretty and lovely, smiling like a happy lark every day. The more they looked at each other, the more compatible they were. It made people want to protect and love her.

A man’s appearance was not significant. In the past, what she liked about Zhong Yong’s father was not his appearance but his dominance and gentleness.

Thinking of her man, tears appeared in Madam Li’s eyes again. She muttered to her husband in her heart,

“Brother Feng, the marriage you arranged for Yong’er is perfect. Look at how compatible they are.

Su Qing slept soundly at her Godmother’s house for the night.

She woke up early in the morning. Her head didn’t hurt anymore, and her heart wasn’t annoyed anymore. At dawn, she was going to Tartan to look for Shuisheng.

Madam Li had made dumplings for Su Qing early in the morning, hoping she could eat them and hurry.

“Godmother.”

Su Qing came out of the house and was very touched to see her Godmother busy. She called out to her in a low voice.

“Are you awake? There’s hot water in the big pot. Wash your face quickly. You can eat soon.”

When Madam Li saw that Su Qing had woken up, she smiled and said,” A mother is worried about her son. Every time Zhong Yong went to dig for coal, I would wake up early to cook for him so the child could eat and leave warm.”

“Thank you, Godmother.”

Su Qing smiled and nodded. She scooped hot and cold water from the big pot and washed her face.

“Sister Su Qing, why are you up so early?”

Xiaoying came out of the room, rubbing her eyes. She was still not fully awake. Her face, which had just woken up, was like a red apple, delicate and cute.

“Godmother woke up earlier.”

Su Qing smiled at her. Xiaoying saw that her Godmother was making dumplings, so she took the initiative to ask to help. “Godmother, let me help you make dumplings.”

In the past, Xiaoying was raised by her brother and foster father. They didn’t let Xiaoying do any work and raised her like a delicate young lady. Now, Xiaoying had been trained by Su Qing to be responsible. Not only did she know how to do any work, but she also did it well.

“No need. Godmother is almost done.”

“Go and talk to your sister Su Qing.”

Madam Li’s heart ached for Xiaoying for not allowing her to interfere.

“Godmother, let’s work together.”

Su Qing came over to help after washing her face. Xiaoying also rushed over to wash her face. The three of them worked very quickly. In a short while, they had made four lamb dumplings.

If Zhong Yong could eat, he could eat two curtains. It was also good for a person to have a high appetite. One person could eat the need of three people.

“Su Qing, let Yong’er accompany you to Tartan. It just so happens that he’s going to deliver coal.”

Madam Li was worried that Su Qing would not be safe going alone during dinner, so she asked Zhong Yong to accompany her.

” Sister Su Qing, I’ll go with you.”

Although Xiaoying had been frightened when she participated in the Blue Mountain Conference, she liked it more than she was afraid. The people of Tartan were pleased when they sang and danced. She liked that carefree happiness.

“Alright.”

Su Qing saw Xiaoying’s sparkling eyes filled with desire and agreed. Xiaoying was an extrovert. Keeping her at home every day would suppress her nature. Su Qing liked to see Xiaoying’s carefree appearance.

They were going to Tartan to find Shuisheng, so Xiaoying wouldn’t delay things if she followed.

“That’s great.”

Xiaoying was so happy that Su Qing agreed. She didn’t even eat and went to the cupboard to get new clothes. Her Godmother made her a new cotton jacket with beautiful peony flowers embroidered on the collar and cuffs. She liked it very much and couldn’t bear to wear it at home.

“All, Xiaoying’s new clothes are so beautiful.”

Su Qing smiled and praised Xiaoying when she saw her change into new clothes.

Xiaoying’s eyes curved into crescents as she happily tugged at the hem of her clothes and twirled around.

“Godmother made it. 1 like it very much.”

Madam Li looked at Xiaoying with a smile. The more she looked at her, the more worthy she became.

After eating, Zhong Yong went to prepare the coal carts. He had brought back eight carts of coal this time, two more than Li Daniu and the others. He was strong and did not hesitate to work. He could earn more money with more coal.

Nowadays, the coal carts have been modified. The carriage plates were very high and could hold nearly half more coal than before. In the past, one horse pulled the carriage, but now it was two horses pulling the carriage.

Su Qing went to the government office to pick up Dahei, and Xiaoying went with her. When they arrived at the government office, they saw Qiu Yongkang.

Seeing Su Qing and Xiaoying together, Qiu Yongkang’s eyes flickered, a little unnatural.

His words yesterday seemed to have misled him, and his impression of Qiu Yongkang worsened. Su Qing glanced at him indifferently. Her face turned cold.

Qiu Yongkang had been paying attention to her expression and saw that Su Qing’s face turned cold when he saw him.

Qiu Yongkang lowered his eyes to hide the expression in his eyes. Women were easily jealous. She had already been there once. After hearing what he said yesterday, shouldn’t she have left angrily?

This woman was unfathomable!

Qiu Yongkang avoided Su Qing’s gaze and looked at Xiaoying. Seeing that she was wearing a new cotton jacket, he praised Xiaoying with a smile,

” Xiaoying, the new clothes are gorgeous..”
