C10 (2/2)

Huh? Su Zhi raised her head in disbelief and looked at him in a daze.

Was this person really willing to lend her some silver?

Liu Yu An didn't care about her surprise and gave a look to the Grand Master. He weighed the money pouch in his hand and said, ”Here, there's twenty taels inside. I should be able to reach the border without worry.”

Su Zhi was stupefied. She slowly took the heavy purse with both hands, feeling that her palms were frighteningly hot.

She did not have much confidence in being able to borrow money, but her family was really stretched to the point of being unable to find even half a copper coin. He didn't expect that Liu Yuan would really be willing to help.

”Big … Everyone … A woman …” Staring at the purse in her hand, she became so excited that she started to speak incoherently. She calmed herself down and said, ”Your Excellency is willing to contribute generously today. In the future, I, Su Zhi, will repay you tenfold.”

Liu Yuan smiled and shook his head. He had only intended to look at Su Zhi pitifully; he hadn't thought that she would still be able to afford it.

On the other hand, the vast sea of people was a thousand miles away from the border. He would return to the capital in a few days, and the two of them would never meet again.

”I also have an older sister who is a distant husband. Her family met with an accident and relied on the help of others to return to her family. ”This twenty silver taels is nothing, it's just a small amount of energy. Since the journey is short, Madam Su needs to be careful.”

”Thank you, my lord, for your reminder. This humble woman will be extremely grateful.”

Su Zhi carefully put the silver back into her pocket and watched Liu Yuan leave. Her hot heart was about to spill its warmth.

Once she got entangled, she could bring A Jin and Little Dou to the Fringe to find a husband. No matter what happened in the future, she would live a better life in An Ning village.

When the sun was about to set, A Jin, who was waiting for her mother's return from her ruined home, finally saw Su Zhi, who had returned alone at the other end of the road.

”Mother!” A Jin shouted, mixed with worry and joy.

”Mother ~” She took short steps and ran with her brother to bring Su Zhi home.

Looking at the two cute little lumps, Su Zhi's heart almost melted.

Squatting on the left and right, he held the two of them tightly.

Under the setting sun, the three shadows intertwined together and happily returned to the dilapidated wooden door.

Not long after he entered, heavy rain began to fall, splashing on the thatched cottage.

There was a leak in the house. A Jin sensibly found some terrines and placed them on the ground to prevent them from getting wet from the rain.

Su Zhi's mood was not affected in the slightest by the heavy rain as she cooked and cooked.

There would be a rainbow after the storm, she believed!
