Stepping into the living room, breakfast was already spread out on the table. Su Hu and Li Xiu’e were waiting for her by the table, looking at their beautiful little girl who resembled a fairy from a New Year’s painting. They both felt a sense of pride for having raised their daughter to this age.
“Sister Yu, it’s your first day at the Academy today. Let your dad accompany you. First, go to the school supervisor to report, and when he assigns you to a class, a master will naturally come to fetch you.”
Su Hu and his wife had raised two children and were very familiar with the process of attending an Academy. Li Xiu’e, particularly concerned for her young daughter, specially reminded her of it.
“Mm, Qingluo knows.”
Su Qingluo obediently replied and sat down at the table. She began to eat by picking up a bowl of porridge.
She had a small appetite, drinking a bowl of porridge, eating two buns, one egg, and then putting down her chopsticks.
“Sister Yu, don’t you want to eat more?”
Su Hu hadn’t finished eating, but seeing his little daughter putting down her chopsticks, he hurriedly stuffed the half-eaten bun in his hand into his mouth.
“I’m full, I won’t eat anymore.”
Su Qingluo blinked her big and lively eyes, smiling at Su Hu, saying intimately with a heartfelt smile, “Dad, take your time to eat, there’s no hurry.”
“Dad’s also full. Today is the first day of registration; we shouldn’t be late. Let’s go.”
Su Hu picked up the bowl of porridge, drank it in one breath, put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, and stood up from the chair.
“It’s cold outside, wear more clothes.”
Li Xiu’e also stood up, picked up a thick cotton shawl from the back of the chair, handed it to Su Hu, and then handed the cloak to her small daughter, earnestly advising her.
“Sister Yu, put on your hat and wrap the cloak around you.”
“Alright, Mother, don’t worry. I’ll take care of myself.”
Su Qingluo obediently smiled and took the cloak, draping it over herself, pulling the hat from behind and covering her head, then tying the straps in front.
After tidying up, Su Hu also put on the cotton shawl. The father and daughter exited the living room one after the other.
“Dad, let’s ride the horses to the ferry. Black Wind and Jujube know the way and can return on their own.”
Su Qingluo had been a good rider since childhood. She had intended to ride to school, and when she passed the stable, she couldn’t help but stop.
Su Hu hesitated and subconsciously glanced towards the main room, “There are still many cold days left, and it’s too cold to ride a horse. What if you catch a cold? Your mother won’t agree.”
“Mother’s gone back to her room; she can’t see.”
Su Qingluo’s eyes caught a glimpse of Li Xiu’e entering the main room through the curtains, laughing so hard her teeth showed but her eyes didn’t.
“You little mischievous one.”
Su Hu couldn’t help but laugh, his fatherly affection pampering his daughter. He finally agreed.
Father and daughter quietly led Black Wind and Jujube out of the stable, mounted their horses, and rode out of the yard.
The horses were well-raised, very intelligent, and started running without being prompted. They followed the path out of the village and headed for the ferry.
When they arrived at the ferry, Black Wind and Jujube returned home on their own. The father and daughter crossed the river by boat and arrived at the Thatched Cottage Academy at dawn.
Students enrolling in the spring semester were children from the local wealthy families. Most of them were sent to school with servants and carriages for pick-ups and drop-offs.
Early in the morning, the lane at the entrance of the Thatched Cottage Academy was filled with carriages, stretching as far as the eye could see. Each family’s carriage seemed to compete with each other in ostentatious decoration.
Some rich children entered the Academy under the care of their maids, matrons, and servants, yawning as they went. As they passed by the father and daughter standing at the entrance, they looked at them with disdain.
Su Hu and his daughter were plainly dressed and had no carriage or servants. At a glance, they seemed somewhat shabby.
“Sister Yu, most of the children in the Academy are from poor families, this year is just an exception.”
Su Hu, sensitive to some people’s contempt, was afraid his little daughter would be upset, so he specially comforted her.
“I know, Dad, it’s okay, I don’t care about them.”
Su Qingluo smiled understandingly, not taking the group of young children seriously.
Although she was now just an eight-year-old girl..
