“Well, since they are not arrested yet, mom will still be worried. She will never let me go out these days.” Su Qingluo propped her head up with her hand and sighed.

“Then, we should wait for a few days.”

The little fledgling was considerate. It said, “The gold mine won’t run away anyway, so it will not be too late when the bandits are arrested.”

“Well, okay.”

Su Qingluo lowered her head and said listlessly, “Fortunately, our house is close to the river bank. I can sneak out to play with water occasionally. Otherwise, I would be extremely bored if I could only stay at home every day.”

“Master, I’ll go to the mountains and pick some herbs.”

The little kingfisher wanted to go out and play. It did not want to stay at home. It flapped its wings, found an excuse, and flew away.

“How ungrateful you are! You actually go out to play alone.”

Su Qingluo looked at the little kingfisher flying away with envy before she closed the window.

Since she could not go out to play, she could only sleep at home.

She was still a little girl who was developing. Sleeping was good for her bone growth. Some naps could make her taller.

“Yuyu, the hawthorn juice is ready.”

Li Xiu’e came to the little girl’s bedroom with the prepared hawthorn juice and looked at the snoring little girl lying on the bed through the window. Li Xiu’e shook her head with a smile and returned to the kitchen with the hawthorn juice.

She poured a full pot of hawthorn juice into a clean bucket and carried the bucket to the well.

The hawthorn juice would be better after being cooled by the well water. When Yuyu woke up, she would enjoy the hawthorn juice more.

Li Xiu’e thought to herself and quickened her movements. She hung the bucket with ropes, put it into the well, and suspended it on the water.

After taking care of the bucket, she went back to the kitchen to clean up the pots and bowls. After taking care of everything, she took a needle and thread and then, sat in the shade of the courtyard to embroider a handkerchief.

Her needlework was excellent, with fine stitches and bright colors. Her products were popular with ladies. Before Yuyu came to her house, she used to support her family by embroidering handkerchiefs.

Although her family’s situation got better in recent years, she had not given up her hobby. When she was free, she would embroider some handkerchiefs and purses for her eldest daughter and son who were studying at school.

Su Qingluo slept until the evening. When she woke up, the smoke was coming out of the chimney. Li Xiu’e had started cooking dinner.

As soon as the sun went down, Su Hu came back from hunting with the hunters in the village. He walked down the hill and greeted the villagers, who were sitting under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, and chatted with them.

“What did you get today?”

The gray-haired village head knocked his cigarette stick, walked out of his yard with his hands on his back, and looked at Su Hu’s basket with a smile.

“Not much. I only got a rabbit. How about you take it?”

Su Hu took the basket off his shoulder. He took out the gray-furred rabbit and put it in the arms of the village head.

The rabbit was still alive and its right leg was broken, which made it wince in pain.

“Haha, you are very good at hunting.”

The village head was happy. Then, he said, “I have talked to someone. You want to send Qiaoqiao to school in the county, right? It’s done. Qiaoqiao will go to Minshui College, which is the best college in our county.”

“Thank you!”

Su Hu was overjoyed when he heard that. He got very excited and said to the village head, “Tomorrow, I will go to Furong Town again and buy some good wine to drink with you.”

“We both live in this village. We are like a family now. You don’t have to be so polite.”

The village head smiled and said, “It’s also because Qiaoqiao is very clever. She becomes a Scholar when she is only 13 years old. She is the first female Scholar in the hundred years of Woniu Village. In the future, she will pass the county exam and become a female official. It will also be an honor of the whole Woniu Village.”

“Haha, thank you for that! If Qiaoqiao becomes a female official in the future, I will let her come back to thank you in person.” Su Hu was very happy when he heard the words of the village head.
