Chapter 31: Does it really have such great supernatural power?

There was a moment of silence after people heard this.

Wu Laicai asked doubtfully, "You went to pick me up because of what that child said? How did that child know I was going to be in trouble? Does she have such great power?"

People also had doubts.

"Was it really because of that child's words that you came to pick me up?"

Wu Laicai still asked uncertainly, "Didn't you worry about him?"

Liu Fen hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Yes."

She was actually worried, but knowing that Wu Laicai never appreciated her kindness, she knew that if she said she was worried about him, she would only be scolded, so she simply kept quiet.

Wu Laicai fell silent. He never expected that he would be spared because of a child's words.

"Lai Cai's wife, did that girl say anything else? What was her name again?"

A man asked curiously.

"She didn't say anything else, and her name is also quite unique. I heard it's Su Dai."

Liu Fen recalled that Su Dai had indeed only said that one sentence that afternoon and then stopped.

One reason was her sudden change of expression, and the other was that Qin Yuwan and Zhao Lan seemed to forbid her from speaking about it anymore.

Anyway, she wouldn't understand.

Liu Fen looked at the silent Wu Laicai and said, "Old Wu, we should go and thank them tomorrow. They brought their child today to see the puppies. Let's prepare some gifts and let the child come to our house to choose a puppy."

Wu Laicai nodded. In any case, he had been given a second chance at life and should be thanked.

"Could this Su Dai be a fortune teller? Let's go ask him and see when we'll strike it rich."

“I also want to ask my grandson if he can pass the exam. If he can’t, I won’t let him study anymore, so as not to waste his time.”

Everyone had their own opinion, and they were all very curious about this matter.

"It's getting late. If you're alright, let's head back."

"Yes, yes, we need to be more careful in the future. They say small accidents can lead to big problems, and it turns out that's really true."

People sighed as they headed home.

After everyone had left, Yang Dashu finally spoke up: "Brother, let's call a doctor to take a look."

Yang Dashu still felt bad about it.

Wu Laicai stood up and said with a smile, "No need, I'm fine. The accident happened because I was drunk. It won't happen again."

He almost lost his life, and he felt embarrassed.

This was an accident, and it had nothing to do with Yang Dashu. Besides, he's lucky; he had a benefactor who saved his life. This is nothing at all.

"Then we're going home too."

Yang Dashu led his wife out, and Liu Fen followed to see them off.

At the door, Yang Dashu said again, "Sister-in-law, thanks to you. Although it was that child who reminded me, if you hadn't taken it to heart, the consequences would have been unimaginable. I'm so grateful to you for saving my life."

However, Wu Laicai's words were not very pleasant, and it's not appropriate for outsiders to comment on matters between husband and wife.

Liu Fen smiled and shook her head, then said, "Brother and sister-in-law, let's not talk about anything else. As long as you're alright, that's all that matters. Please drive carefully on your way back, and watch out for the slippery roads."

Yang Dashu and his wife nodded and went back.

Liu Fen returned home and waited for the children to bring hot water before helping Wu Laicai wash up.

After everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Wu Laicai suddenly hugged Liu Fen from behind and said, "Fen, thank you, thank you for thinking of me."

Wu Lai awkwardly finished speaking, then let go of her hand and quickly turned over to go to sleep.

Liu Fen smiled slightly, then sighed softly.

That's just her personality; he just doesn't know how to say nice things, but otherwise he's great.

The outside was quiet, and the couple, feeling at ease, quickly drifted off to sleep.

——

In a half-dreaming, half-awake state, Su Dai saw something glittering flying towards her. She reached out and grabbed it, and the glittering thing disappeared into her body, making her feel as light as a feather.

The comfort she felt made her smile.

Qin woke up to Su Dai's laughter, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips. She leaned over and kissed Su Dai's cheek, feeling as if her heart had melted into a ball of cotton.

Her heart was filled with warmth; as long as her baby was happy, that was all that mattered.

This was the first time Su Dai had ever smiled in her dream since she could remember.

I don't know what she dreamed about.

"My dear child, I hope you will be healthy and happy for the rest of your life, and always have sweet dreams."

Qin whispered softly, pulled Su Dai into her arms, closed her eyes, and continued to sleep.

Daylight breaks, and a new day begins.

Life was peaceful and fulfilling.

After lunch.

Qin Tianhai held Su Dai in his arms as he taught her to write, his face serious: "Su Bao, have you memorized it?"

Su Dai nodded obediently: "I remember, I remember, I really remember."

Qin Tianhai remained serious: "Write it down and show it to your grandfather."

Su Dai took the firewood stick and began to write, stroke by stroke.

Qin Tianhai's serious expression finally softened, and he looked barely presentable.

But thinking about how it was the same yesterday, he frowned again. He didn't know if Su Dai had actually learned it or not. He taught her several times and she could write it, but she would forget it again the next day...

Qin Tianhai was a little troubled.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being so stupid."

Su Dai also realized that there seemed to be something wrong with her brain; it was a very simple thing, but she couldn't remember how to write it.

"It's alright, it's alright. It's Grandpa's fault for not teaching well. He didn't find the right method."

When Qin Tianhai saw Su Dai blaming herself, he immediately felt ashamed. Such a well-behaved child, if she doesn't know how, she doesn't know how. There are so many girls in this world who don't even know how to read.

Su Dai could at least recognize characters; she just couldn't write them.

As for characters, you don't necessarily have to write them; just being able to recognize them is enough.

Qin Tianhai convinced himself.

He spoke gently to Su Dai: "Grandpa promised you that once you've learned it, he'll tell you why ants are so united. Come on, Grandpa will take you to find the answer."

Su Dai beamed: "Great!"

Qin Tianhai led Su Dai, following the ants in their search.

"Su Bao, look, these are the generals among the ants. They command the soldiers to find and transport food. And these generals are under the command of the ant queen. They are loyal and willing to dedicate their lives to the queen. They will never betray her, so they are very united."

"Don't underestimate ants. They can carry things several times their own size, which is something we humans can't do."

Qin Tianhai patiently explained to Su Dai.

Su Dai's eyes lit up as he listened, finding it extremely interesting.

There was knocking and shouting from outside.

"Uncle Qin, Auntie, are you home?"

Wu Laicai arrived with Liu Fen. The courtyard gate was only slightly ajar, but through the crack in the gate they could see Qin Tianhai's affection for Su Dai.

Qin Tianhai led Su Dai to the door. He looked at Wu Laicai and Liu Fen with some confusion, but stepped aside to invite them into the house. Qin Tianhai opened the door and asked, "Why are you two here? And why did you bring so many things?"

Wu Laicai was carrying two chickens, a rooster and a hen.

Liu Fen was carrying a basket of eggs, and there was also a piece of meat inside—this was a very generous gift.

Just as the couple was about to put it down, Qin Tianhai quickly said, "Don't put it down yet, we haven't explained things clearly yet."
