Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter

Chapter 398: Chapter 396: Forever Our Daughter_1
“Daughter-in-law, don’t cry. Once Sister Yu returns to the Duke of Zhen’s residence, she’ll become a high-born lady, which is much better than staying here in the countryside. We should be happy for our girl.”

Upon hearing his daughter’s voice, Su Hu came from the adjacent room, suppressing his reluctance, and comforted Li Xiu’e.

“I know, I understand all that. I just can’t bear to part with Sister Yu. The thought of her not living with us anymore makes my heart ache.”

Li Xiu’e’s sadness was hard to suppress, and it took her a while to calm down. Holding her daughter’s delicate body close, she still struggled to breathe.

“Mom, we also have a house in Capital City.”

With teary eyes, Su Qingluo couldn’t bear to see her mother’s pain: “Once my brother passes the County Examination and goes to study in Capital City, you and dad can take my siblings and move there. We can meet again then!”

“Sister Yu is right, daughter-in-law, please stop crying.”

Su Hu’s eyes brightened, as he consoled her: “If you cry, our girl will be heartbroken too. Can you bear to see Sister Yu cry?”

These words finally hit the mark.

Li Xiu’e stopped crying, forcing a breath, wiping her tears with both hands.

Seeing her mother’s heartache, Su Qingluo tenderly held her hand, trying not to blame herself.

“Sister Yu, you’ll always be our precious daughter, even after you return to the Duke of Zhen’s residence. Your mom and dad will always be your support.”

Su Hu showed his true emotions with his dark face rarely so solemn.

“In the future, if anyone bullies you or if you suffer any grievances, just come home. The Su Clan’s door will always be open for you. You are always your parent’s most beloved daughter.”

“Dad, mom, I’ll remember. Qingluo will often come to see you.”

Su Qingluo’s beautiful black eyes were full of emotion, holding back tears that refused to be restrained, eventually falling.

“Sister Yu, it’s enough for you to keep us in your heart.”

Su Hu couldn’t bear to see his daughter traveling back and forth: “Capital City is so far away from our village; it takes at least six days for a round trip. It’s not convenient, so don’t worry about us.”

Deep in the mountains, there’s Mystic Canyon, with thousands of years of medicinal plants, and a large stockpile of supplies; naturally, she would often return to take care of it.

With a hint of mischief in her tearful eyes, Su Qingluo playfully said, “Dad and mom, you know that I’ve grown up wild in the woods. I’ll get tired of Capital City soon enough, and I’ll want to sneak out and have fun.”

“You’ve always been wild since you were little, and you’re still like this as you grow up.”

Li Xiu’e felt a surge of warmth, gently wiping away the tears from her daughter’s eyelid, and finally revealing a smile.

“Mom, I’m only ten, I haven’t grown up yet!”

Su Qingluo purposefully pouted, acting cute.

“Alright, our Sister Yu hasn’t grown up yet, and will always be the beloved baby in mom’s heart.”

Li Xiu’e was delighted, embracing her precious girl and not wanting to let go.

With Su Qingluo’s identity exposed, Woniu Village was buzzing.

The Old Village Chief’s face glowed red as he bragged to anyone who would listen about the good feng shui of Woniu Village.

The Duke of Zhen’s residence had been deceived, and their legitimate granddaughter, after floating downstream through countless villages along the river, had ended up in Woniu Village of all places.

The villagers felt proud, considering it an honor to share the same village with a national hero.

And to have lived at the foot of the same mountain as their legitimate granddaughter for ten years, they felt even more blessed by the good deeds of their ancestors.

When Ye Xue’e heard the shocking truth, she was not feeling well and couldn’t travel far. So, the group from the Duke of Zhen’s residence, who came to pick up their granddaughter, decided not to depart immediately and settled temporarily at an inn on the opposite bank of the river.

They would wait for the Eldest Miss’ health to improve before they accompany her back to their residence.
