Sister, let me tell you, I have an older brother. He's much older than me, Wenwen said anxiously.
When Su Xingran saw her, her face turned red with anxiety, and she quickly asked, "Wenwen, do you know how old your brother is?" Su Xingran was a little afraid that if she spoke too slowly, Wenwen would start to cry.
My mother said that my brother turned eighteen this year. His birthday was not long ago, but he didn't come home for a holiday, not even for the Chinese New Year.
Wenwen's brother is ten years older than her. Su Xingran thought to herself that the age gap between the siblings was quite large.
Sister, my brother went to join the army. I haven't seen him for two years. I miss him so much, but Mom and Dad say that he is a soldier and has to protect our country.
Sister, when my brother comes back, come to my house to play, and I'll introduce him to you, okay?
A man training thousands of miles away sneezed, rubbed his nose, and realized that his wife, Wenwen, must be missing him.
Okay, when Brother Wenwen comes back, I'll go play with Wenwen at her house, and then Wenwen will introduce her brother to me. Su Xingran said with a mix of helplessness and indulgence, spoiling the little girl in front of her.
Little did the two know that the brother they spoke of later met the grown-up Su Xingran, just as the book says: "Meeting a beautiful woman once leads to a lifelong mistake, and from then on, one's heart is hard to give to another."
Su Xingran accompanied Wenwen on a walk around the village. Along the way, they encountered some aunties and grandmothers in the village, who all asked whose little girl was, saying that she was so pretty and cute.
Deng Wenwen has a chubby face, her skin is fair like her aunt's, and her features are delicate. She resembles both her uncle and aunt. Uncle Deng is handsome and composed, while Aunt Deng is beautiful and dignified, so Wenwen is quite pretty because she resembles them. She has short hair, a mushroom cut similar to the newer generation, which makes her look pretty and cute.
Su Xingran would always reply that it was her master's relative's child, Wenwen. This little girl, whenever she heard others say she was pretty and cute, her mouth would flutter like honey, showering all the aunties with New Year's greetings. She charmed them so much that they all wanted to take her home; who doesn't like a pretty, sweet-talking child?
Su Xingran felt that if she didn't take Wenwen away, those aunties might really try to snatch her away. So she found an excuse to take the little girl, who had no sense of danger at all, back to her master's house.
On Su's side, carrying the things he had bought that morning, he went from house to house to offer New Year's greetings and blessings. He had already paid New Year's greetings to several uncles and great-uncles, and now he had just arrived at the old village chief's house.
The old village chief was quite pleased to see that it was Su's father who had come to visit, because Su's father looked like his grandfather, Su Houyuan. The old village chief and Su Houyuan had a very good relationship. Although one was a scholar and the other a martial artist, they had grown up together since childhood and their personalities and values were quite compatible.
Happy New Year, Grandpa Village Chief! Wishing you good health. We apologize for disturbing you, but we have brought some New Year's greetings for you. Please accept them.
You're already here, no need to be so polite. Come in, sit down, and have a cup of hot water to warm yourself up. I heard your daughter has taken Dr. Huang as her apprentice?
Yes, Ranran is fortunate enough to become Dr. Huang's apprentice. Now she is studying at school while learning medicine from her master.
That's good. Dr. Huang's medical skills are quite excellent. Mr. Guo, tell your daughter to study medicine diligently under his master. Once she masters it, she'll have her day.
Your family will get better and better. Don't worry too much about your muddle-headed parents anymore. Just live your own lives. The old village chief didn't say that the daughter of the Guomin family had a stroke of good fortune. When the old village chief first met Doctor Huang, he knew that this person was definitely not an ordinary doctor. Even though he was old and had restrained himself, you could tell that he came from the military.
