Chapter 51： sensible brother

Summer passed and autumn came, and the flowers bloomed. In a blink of an eye, the summer vacation passed, and the autumn semester of the college started.

Accompanied by Su Hu and his wife, Qiaojie went to study in the county. Doudou crosses the river by boat and goes to the academy on the other side of the river to attend classes.

Su Qingluo stayed at home to take care of the two foals. Without the restraint of her parents, she was more at ease.

Riding a pony to play in the mountains and forests, the cheerful and melodious laughter like silver bells spread to every corner of Woniu Village.

Su Hu and his wife sent Qiaojie to the county seat, and they would not come back until she successfully entered school. The county seat is far away, and it takes five days to go back and forth.

With his parents not at home, nine-year-old Su Zixuan took on the responsibility of cooking and taking care of his younger sister.

Su Zixuan was thoughtful, steady and sensible. He was alone at home with his younger sister, like a grown-up, kept the house clean and tidy, and took care of his younger sister with due diligence.

Waking up early in the morning, he steamed egg custard, woke up his drowsy younger sister, and watched her finish her breakfast before crossing the river by boat and going to the academy for classes.

After school at noon, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he ran to the ferry with his schoolbag on his back. I bought a few steamed buns from the steamed stuffed bun shop in the ferry, carried them back in my arms, and used them as my brother and sister's lunch.

After school in the afternoon, he also went home as early as possible.

Occasionally, when the teacher does not go well with his homework, he punishes the students and delays the get out of class.

The scene of my younger sister sitting at the gate of the courtyard, holding her small face and chin, with a hungry stomach, eagerly waiting for him to come home flashed in my mind. He will be anxious and anxious, wishing he could sneak home.

One day, because some students were frolicking in class, the master was furious again, and punished everyone to copy poems a hundred times, and they were not allowed to leave school if they didn't finish copying.

Su Zixuan forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, wrote like flying, copied the poems over and over again, and finally handed in the penalty paper before dark, got the teacher's permission, and went home after school.

Before sunset, there were a lot of people crossing the river by boat. Those who had worked as foreign workers for a day returned home with their tired bodies to recuperate.

Su Zixuan paid the boat fare and lined up at the ferry, waiting to board the boat. After finally being able to get himself in line, he boarded the boat. The boss of the boat insisted on paying an extra fare because someone had brought too much luggage and occupied the cabin, so he was willing to sail.

The two fought and wasted a lot of time. By the time the passenger ship set off, the sun had already set and it was completely dark.

Su Zixuan was secretly annoyed, afraid that his sister would not be able to wait for him, so he sat alone at the gate of the courtyard in fear, looking at the endlessly flowing river in the dark night, hoping that the passenger boat could row faster.

The ferry on the other side of the river arrived, and Su Zixuan couldn't wait to stop. Relying on his small size, he squeezed his way out of the boat. Just as he jumped off the side of the boat, he heard his sister calling his brother sweetly.

He raised his head in a jerk, followed the sound, and saw Su Qingluo holding two pony, standing on the bank of the river at the ferry, waving his little hands and looking at him with a smile.

"Sister Yu!"

Su Zixuan's eyes turned red instantly. He didn't expect his sister to wait for him at the ferry. It was so dark and a little girl was waiting alone at the ferry. How helpless and frightened she must be.

Thinking in his heart, he ran forward quickly, came to his sister, hugged her, his nose was sore, and tears rolled in his eyes.

"Brother, let's ride home."

His little sister was obviously not as helpless and scared as he thought, and the sound of her sweet little milk rang in his ears, dispelling the haze that was suppressed in his heart.

"I can't ride a horse."

Su Zixuan loosened his arms holding the little sister, his delicate face flushed with embarrassment.

He really doesn't know how to do it. He has been doing his best to serve Heifeng all summer vacation, and wants to develop a relationship with him.

However, Heifeng is very arrogant, once he shows that he wants to try to climb on the horseback, Heifeng will raise his hooves and kick him without hesitation.
