482 Special Gift
Niu Dagui and Madam Yan had also said that if Niu Xibao and Chen Daniu wanted to stay in the capital, this residence would be their home. It wasn’t big, but it was enough for Niu Xibao and Chen Daniu to live in. With two or three children in the future, they could still live there.

Now, both sides were organizing the marriage.

On the Chen family’s side, Su Chong and Qi Xingfeng helped with the miscellaneous matters. Knowing that the two families had a good relationship, the Qi family even sent a few prefecture soldiers to help.

Chen Hu was very grateful and happy that his daughter was going to get married in glory.

Su Xiaoling spent the day at the Chen residence with Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were busy with the preparations and would not return home until night.

When Su Xiaolu returned, they had just returned home.

Seeing Xiaolu return, Madam Zhao first pulled Su Xiaolu’s hand and looked at it. Then, she said gently, “You’ve lost weight.”

Su Xiaolu hugged Madam Zhao. No matter what, her mother’s embrace could make people feel warm.

Su Xiaolu had also grown up and did not hug her often. Madam Zhao felt her heart move when Su Xiaolu hugged her. She was very gentle and patted Su Xiaolu’s back. Then, she asked with concern, “Have you eaten?”

Su Xiaolu nodded. She came out of Madam Zhao’s arms and said happily to Su Sanlang, “Father, I have something for you.”

Su Sanlang smiled warmly. “What is it?”

Su Xiaolu took out the box and handed it to Su Sanlang. Su Sanlang opened it and was stunned.

Su Chong tilted his head and said, “Xiaolu gave Father an eye.”

Madam Zhao was also shocked. An eye?

Su Xiaolu explained, “It’s fake, but it looks real. Father can put it in his eye socket. It’s usually hard to tell the difference.”

Su Xiaolu had seen it up close. The person who carved this prosthetic eye was very skilled. If she did not look carefully, she would not be able to tell that it was fake.

Normal people would not have the chance to take a closer look anyway.

Su Sanlang held the box tightly. Madam Zhao gently held Su Sanlang’s arm and said, “Sanlang, what are you waiting for? Let’s go set it up and show the children.”

It had been a full eleven years since Su Sanlang had lost that eye.

Every time Madam Zhao thought of it, she still wanted to cry. Even if her days were better now, she could not forget how cold it was when their family entered the mountain together that day, and the crunching sound of their feet stepping on the snow.

Su Sanlang’s eyes reddened as he looked at the children. He smiled gently and nodded. “Okay, wait for me.”

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao returned to their room.

Su Xiaolu and her siblings waited together.

The few of them looked at each other and smiled. They did not say anything, but they felt very warm.

Actually, they all took it to heart about Su Sanlang’s eyes. They had also secretly looked for materials that could be used to make a prosthetic eye. They could not find anything good enough. They had never said anything about this openly.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao returned to their room and washed the eye with warm water. Then Madam Zhao helped Su Sanlang put it in his eye.

When his empty sockets were full again, Su Sanlang smiled at Madam Zhao.

Madam Zhao was already crying. She looked at Su Sanlang’s eyes and choked. “Sanlang, I’m so happy.”

Su Sanlang gently wiped Madam Zhao’s tears and said, “I’m happy too.”

Warm jade had warmth. After putting it on, there was no discomfort at all. Apart from being unable to see using this eye, it was no different from his other eye.

Apart from people who knew about the past, no one else would know that his eye was fake in the future.

In the bronze mirror, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao stared at it for a long time.

Su Sanlang reluctantly looked away. “Come on,” he said gently. “Let’s go out and show it to the children too.”

Madam Zhao nodded and the couple went out together.

Su Sanlang took off the blindfold that he had been wearing for more than ten years. He came out with Madam Zhao and looked at the children with his eyes.

Su Chong and the others were also looking at him.

“Father, if you feel uncomfortable, tell me.”

Su Xiaolu looked into Su Sanlang’s eyes. Her smile was sweet.

Su Sanlang reached out and gently ruffled Su Xiaolu’s hair. “Okay.”

Back then, his eye had been exchanged for a way out for his family. His eye socket had been empty for more than ten years, but today, it was full again.

All the suffering was over. The painful memory would gradually fade from memory, and the pain would gradually be forgotten.

The children looked into his eyes and smiled.

As they smiled, their eyes turned red.

Su Xiaolu hugged Su Sanlang and held back her tears, but some still fell.

Unknowingly, Madam Zhao hugged Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu’s shoulders. Su Chong and Su Hua only patted each other’s backs.

After returning to her room to rest, Su Xiaoling gently massaged Su Xiaolu. Su Xiaolu felt warm and relaxed and quickly fell asleep.

After Su Xiaolu fell asleep, Su Xiaoling kissed her quietly and whispered with a smile, “Xiaolu, thank you for giving us all a new life.”

If not for Su Xiaolu, she thought, without Su Xiaolu, her parents might never have left that family. Her two brothers would not have been cured, and she would not have had the chance to learn to read or even know Zhou Heng.

With Su Xiaolu, their family had a wonderful new life. Even though there were many difficulties along the way, all their efforts had been repaid. They would always feel at ease.

Su Xiaoling was extremely satisfied and at ease. She fell asleep quietly and reached out to gently hug Su Xiaolu.

After Su Xiaolu was weaned when she was one, she was the one who slept with her. It had been ten years and she was about to turn twelve.

Su Xiaoling knew that such days were getting fewer and fewer. She cherished every night she could sleep with Su Xiaolu.

When Su Xiaolu was tired from practicing the sword and making medicine, she would often massage her.

When the weather was hot, Su Xiaoling would fan her. She would sleep very comfortably throughout the night.

Su Xiaolu slept peacefully and woke up energetic the next day.

Su Xiaolu also joined in to help.

Chen Daniu is getting married tomorrow. Today, they had to confirm what they had to do tomorrow. When the groom would come and when she would go out was very particular.

Chen Daniu’s cheeks had been red for the past few days. There was no need for rouge.

After checking the dowry, wedding clothes, and other small details, the day passed.

At night, Su Xiaolu lay on the bed and said, “Sister, can Big Sister Daniu sleep tonight?”

Su Xiaoling smiled. “She can’t sleep. She might even cry, but the ice is ready. If her eyes are swollen tomorrow, she’ll just apply it.”

She was about to get married, leave home, leave her parents, and leave her siblings. From then on, she would be a wife and a mother in the future. These all began from the moment she got married. This day was a special day. It was reasonable for her to not be able to sleep at night because this night was her last night as a daughter.
