Chapter 257: Chapter 255: Husband and Wife Travel Together, On Horseback, Laughing to the Sky!
“Sisi, are you… really going to start a girls’ private school?”
Guihua hesitated and hurriedly caught up, asking curiously.
“I have such plans, but it won’t be easy to actually implement them. However, since Mr. Land Officer has said that it’s possible, it shouldn’t be a big problem to open a private school.”
Liu Sisi was speaking and suddenly fell silent.
“Oh my! You’re amazing! You’re actually going to open a private school!”
Guihua looked excited: “I still remember when you first got married and moved in. You were so timid, and in just a few months, you’ve become so capable.”
“I’ll have to see! The school can only be opened if there are people who want to come and learn.” Liu Sisi was not sure at the moment.
Thinking about it, she felt so emotional: “Time flies so fast. When I first came, it was early summer, and now the first snow of early winter has fallen.”
“Yes, yes, I still remember when Brother Ye Lei married you, besides the wild boar he had just caught, there was not even a grain of food in the house. Later, it was Brother Ye Lei’s ability to carry half a wild boar to the Land Officer’s home in exchange for grain and some silver. Then he bought the red cloth to perform the wedding ritual with you… ”
As Guihua spoke, she suddenly stopped, looking somewhat embarrassed at her, “Sisi, I didn’t mean to say… I mean… ”
“Sister Guihua, I understand. My family really had nothing at the beginning.”
Liu Sisi patted Guihua to show her understanding: “At that time, there were problems with the fields, right? Now that the problems are gone, our home has gradually improved.”
“Field mice, I can’t believe you remember them.”
This made Guihua laugh, but then she added: “You’re not wrong, your description is so apt. It was exactly like mice in the field.”
As they talked, they arrived at the yard door and walked in, chatting and laughing.
The father, who was originally at the doorway, was gone. When the two entered, they saw him strolling in the stable.
Liu Sisi hurriedly called softly: “Dad, it’s cold outside. You should go inside and sit.”
Elderly Mr. Di looked back at them and nodded repeatedly: “Yes, yes, okay… ”
“Grandfather, the room inside is warm.”
Ying’er and Xuan’er called out in unison, supporting Elderly Mr. Di from the left and right, and slowly walking into the room.
At dusk, Ye Lei really returned! He also brought back two sets of clean, dark clothes which were specially made for the constables.
At the same time, Liu Sisi was relieved.
Early the next morning, as soon as Liu Sisi had finished washing the dishes and tidying up the house, she saw Di Yelei bring the horse out again and continually groom it with a mane brush.
The horse happily swayed its tail, its shiny body highlighting its strength. From time to time, it shook its long mane, exuding a strong power.
Hearing Liu Sisi’s footsteps, Ye Lei looked back at her with a gentle smile, and the harmony between him and the horse was so beautiful to behold.
Seemingly noticing Liu Sisi’s gaze, he raised his thick eyebrows proudly and patted the robust horse’s back.
“How about it? Do you want to touch it? This is a great horse!”
“But will it let me touch it? Won’t it attack me?”
Liu Sisi looked at him with surprise and delight, easily detecting the pride in his words. She couldn’t help but reach out her hand, trying to touch the horse.
The horse snorted irritably and stepped around restlessly.
“Silly girl! You can’t approach a horse from behind. Be careful, or it might kick you with its hooves. Come, come around from the front… Lift your hand gently… touch it… ”
Following Di Yelei’s guidance, Liu Sisi carefully stretched out her hand, her fingertips gently touching the horse’s face before quickly retracting.
