Chapter 247: Enjoyment
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After returning home, He Yufeng went to the kitchen to get a bucket of hot water for Su Li.
“The water is ready. Go wash up!”
Su Li nodded in satisfaction. This person had some conscience now. If it was like before, she could send him flying with a kick.
After Su Li washed up, it was already late. He Qingyao and the rest had already fallen asleep, and Su Li lay on the bed.
He Yufeng was wiping his bow and arrow. When he saw that Su Li’s hair was still a little wet, he went out to get a dry towel to dry her hair.
Su Li closed her eyes in enjoyment.
After a while, He Yufeng stopped drying her hair.
Su Li glanced at him and asked him why he had stopped wiping.
“It’s already dry. Lie down and sleep!” He Yufeng explained.
Upon hearing his words, Su Li lay on the bed and fell asleep.
He Yufeng pinched the blanket and heard even breathing coming from the bed. He quietly placed the bow and arrow back on the table before taking off his clothes and getting into bed. A cold wind blew into the blanket, and Su Li couldn’t help but frown.
She opened her eyes and glanced at He Yufeng, then closed them again and continued to sleep.
He Yufeng lay beside her. He had just laid down when a small hand ran over. He took the mischievous hand away. After a while, the hand ran back.
He Yufeng was speechless.
It was a dreamless night.
When Su Li woke up, He Yufeng was no longer beside her. However, the warmth of the blanket meant that He Yufeng had probably just woken up.
Su Li got dressed and got out of bed. She had even combed her hair today. When she walked out of the room, she saw He Yufeng enter the house with a bucket of water.
“You’re quite early,” Su Li said.
He Yufeng poured the water into the water vat and said, “There’s hot water in the pot. Use the hot water to wash up. Don’t use cold water.”
It was said that it was not good for a woman to touch too much cold water. Now that the weather was gradually turning cold, the water in the well seemed to be cold to the bone, so it was better to touch it less.
Su Li was naturally happy to do so. After all, who would be willing to use cold water when there was hot water?
After washing up, she returned to her room and applied skincare products. She had developed this herself and had not taken it out yet. She wanted to test the effect first or see if there was anything that needed to be improved.
At this time, Su Ze and He Qingyao had yet to get up. Su Li distributed the flour first. She planned to steam some steamed dumplings and make some pastries today.
She realized that He Qingyao and He Qingmu liked sweets very much. She wanted to make some candy for them, but there was no candy at home. The candy outside was too expensive, so she might as well make it herself. It was delicious and cheap.
Su Li thought about it and felt that she could ask Glutinous Ball for a book on making sugar when she was free. If she had nothing to do, she could study it first. Perhaps she would be able to figure it out. Moreover, everything depended on oneself. How would she know if she didn’t give it a try?!
After breakfast, Su Li asked Su Ze to take care of the children at home and make some building blocks and new toys.
He Yufeng said to Su Li, “I’ll go to the Fengshui Master’s house later. After choosing a date, I’ll get someone to come over and dig.”
Su Li nodded and said, “Alright, the sooner the better.”
She no longer wanted to live in this dilapidated house, especially since winter was coming soon. A gust of wind would blow her away.
Su Li handed the silver she had prepared to He Yufeng. “This is 100 taels of silver. Take the expenses first. If it’s not enough, I’ll give it to you.”
Building a house was a laborious job. She only planned to lead and plan it. She would let He Yufeng do the specifics.
When He Yufeng saw the silver Su Li handed over, he didn’t reach out to take it. Instead, he said, “You don’t have to worry about the silver. I’ll think of a way to gather it.”
When Su Li heard his words, she rolled her eyes. It would be too late by the time he gathered the silver. Would he still want to live in the new house?
Could it be that He Yufeng’s pride was playing tricks on him? He felt that it was not good for a woman like her to fork out money for such a big thing like building a house?
Su Li stuffed the silver into his hand and said, “Don’t feel burdened. Just treat it as I have lent it to you. You can return it to me after you have the silver. Moreover, if you don’t say it, I won’t say it. No one will know who paid for this silver.”
“Ahem!” Su Ze coughed behind him, indicating that he understood.
He Yufeng was speechless.
Su Li turned around and glanced at Su Ze. “If you don’t say anything, no one would think that you are mute.”
Su Ze looked at He Yufeng and said, “Brother-in-law, don’t worry. I definitely won’t tell anyone. This is a secret between us.”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu also said, “Father, this is also our secret. We won’t tell anyone.”
“Woof woof woof- I’ Riceball also barked.
Su Ze patted Riceball and scolded, “You only know how to eat. Why are you here at this time?”
Riceball looked innocent. They were the ones who said it first. Why did it have to be scolded when it was its turn?
Su Ze must have done it on purpose. He was just dissatisfied that it had eaten an extra drumstick yesterday, so Riceball glared at Su Ze and ran to Su Li for attention.
Su Ze chuckled. “How dare you glare at me? Be careful or I’ll skin you alive.”
Riceball looked at him provocatively with an expression that said, “Come if you have the ability.”
Su Ze was so angry that he wanted to hang Riceball up and beat him up.
Su Li smoothed Riceball’s fur and looked up at Su Ze. “Why are you fussing over this with it? Those who don’t know might think that you’re only three years old!”
Su Ze touched his nose and said, “Who asked it to only know how to anger me all day long!”
Su Li said dotingly, “You, you’re already so old, but you’re still like a child.”
Su Ze said something softly. No one present heard him, but that did not include Su Li. She smiled when she heard Su Ze’s words.
Su Li was going to town later. She wanted to take a look at her shop and go to the Exquisite Pavilion to look for Yue Yingying to see the effect of the perfume last time.
Before leaving, Su Li took out the blueprint she had drawn and waved at Su Ze.
“Ze, come here.”
Su Ze ran to Su Li like a loyal dog. “What’s the matter, Sister?”
Su Li spread out the blueprint. On it were the nodes of every toy and a cross-section.
“You can study this blueprint at home first. You can try it yourself. If you don’t understand anything, come back and ask me. When I’m free one day, I’ll teach you something else.”
These were all very simple things and could be learned very quickly.
Su Ze nodded repeatedly to show that he had no problem. “Sister, don’t worry. Your brother is so smart. Could it be that he can’t even complete such a small matter?”
Su Li stuffed the blueprint into his hand. “You have to be humble. Don’t be arrogant. ”
Su Ze nodded and said, “I understand, Sis. I’ll definitely learn it well..”
