183 Liu Su’e
Liu Sujuan lived in the Liu Family Manor, which was twenty miles away from here. There were a total of three siblings, the eldest sister, Liu Su’e, and a younger brother called Liu Cheng.
Back then, the Liu family was poor. The Liu couple were honest farmers. Hence, as the eldest sister, Liu Su’e had always helped her siblings to get married before considering herself. However, finding a partner was not like buying cabbage. How could she find a suitable partner just because she wanted to? Later, the Liu parents died one after another, so she wasted a few more years. She only got married when she met her current husband, Zhou Qiang. Hence, although she was the oldest of the siblings, she had the youngest child.
Now, her eldest daughter, Zhou Yulan, had just turned 18 and had just taken the college entrance examination this year. Her youngest son, Zhou Yukui, was 16 years old and was in his second year of high school.
Zhou Yulan, had a very bad temper. Although she always bullied Han Binglan and looked down on this cousin, when outsiders really bullied her, that girl would be the first to stand up and fight with them. She was a classic example of a sharp-tongued but soft-hearted person. The standard was: ‘Only I can bully my people, but others can’t bully them.’
In Le Yao’s opinion, she looked like a female domineering president.
As for Liu Cheng, he was not bad at all. He was timid, weak, and had no opinions of his own. He listened to his wife for everything. His wife was the kind of person who would get close to people to take advantage of them, and would immediately fall out with anyone she couldn’t benefit from befriending.
Whenever anyone asked for help, she would definitely be the first to cry poor and make it sound worse than anyone else. In short, she wouldn’t interfere with others’ problems.
Therefore, the sisters had tacitly stopped interacting with their brother all these years.
The direct distance between Pear Tree Village and Hetao Village was not far, but they had to cross the mountain and the river. It was not really close.
It was very inconvenient to drive, so Han Xiangdong borrowed a donkey cart from the villagers and rushed over with gifts.
The little donkey ran quite fast on the mountain road, but it took two hours to reach Shangmatun.
“It’s convenient to sit in this car, but my ass hurts.” After Le Yao jumped down, she twisted her waist.
“Can a girl not speak so vulgerly?” Han Xiangdong couldn’t help but shake his head.
“Then what should I say? Should I say crippled buttocks? Or crippled behind?” Le Yao blinked her big innocent eyes at Han Xiangdong.
Han Xiangdong: …
Forget it, he wouldn’t argue with her anymore. If he continued, he didn’t know what this girl would say.
Tao Qing couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Previously, she had heard that Young Madam wasn’t likable, but after interacting with her, he realized that Young Madam was quite interesting. Rumors harmed people.
Hetao Village was a big village with more than 200 families. Liu Su’e’s house was at the entrance of the village. It was the second house in the second alley.
Liu Su’e looked very similar to Liu Sujuan, but her skin was darker. When she saw Han Xiangdong and Le Yao coming over, she was very happy and quickly pulled them into the house. She poured water and took out some sunflower seeds.
“Why didn’t you call in advance? I didn’t even know that you were coming today. Your uncle went to town to work. Yulan and Yukui went to their classmate’s house to play…” Liu Su’e invited everyone to sit down. She even grabbed a large handful of sunflower seeds for Tao Qing and Yuan Bin and stuffed them into their hands. “This is stir-fried by our family. It smells good.”
The two of them took a stool and sat at the door drinking tea and munching on sunflower seeds.
