“Little girl, your name is Su Qingluo, isn’t it?”
Before Su Qingluo could wallow in her emotions, her sunshine was suddenly blocked by a figure.
The injured female official had somehow come closer, and with assistance from her two colleagues, she slowly bent down, trying to level her gaze with the petite girl.
“Yes.”
Su Qingluo nodded, her big eyes flashing as she met the female official’s scrutinizing gaze without fear.
“You’re quite good. When you grow up, if you want to come to Capital City to take the Imperial Academy entrance exams, you can look for me with this token.”
The woman recalled the condition she was in just before passing out, and how the young girl had run to her over a ground covered in blood, without a trace of fear.
She gave a relieved smile and pulled out a deep-red token from her bosom, which she put into Su Qingluo’s petite hand.
“Thank you, Aunt Xu.”
Su Qingluo gripped the token, glanced at the large ‘Xu’ character on it, and returned the woman’s smile, sweetly.
“Aunt Xu will be waiting for you in Capital City.”
The woman was surprised at how intelligent the young girl was, having concluded the character ‘Xu’ was her surname just with a glance and calling her ‘Aunt Xu’.
She felt an even stronger fondness for her and anticipated the day the young girl would grow up and they could meet again.
“Okay, Aunt Xu, Qingluo will definitely come see you.”
Su Qingluo was smart and took this opportunity to pave the way for Sister Qiao. Her soft, cute voice made the female official’s heart bloom like a flower. She wished she could take her away immediately.
“You must come, Aunt Xu will be waiting for you.”
Upon second thought, the girl was too young. It would take many years to nurture her into a talent, and her parents were right beside her. It wouldn’t be nice trying to snatch their daughter away, so she abandoned these conflicted thoughts.
“Hmm.”
Of course, Su Qingluo wouldn’t have known that the woman’s thoughts had gone through various turns in just an instant. She nodded her little head with a big smile as she said goodbye to the woman.
The woman, assisted by her two colleagues, got into a horse-drawn carriage and left the Medical Hall, the two female officials gallantly mounting their horses. With long swords hanging from their waists and upright postures, they rode alongside the carriage.
“Those are the Imperial Court female officials.”
Su Ziqin watched two female officials ride away, only dropping his gaze when they were out of sight.
“Sister, we’re going to be rich. Once we return to Woniu Village, we can buy horses, and then sister, you can practice horse riding and archery.”
Su Qingluo’s soft voice pulled Su Ziqin’s thoughts back from wherever they’d been.
“Oh right, why didn’t I think of that.’
Her eyes brightening up, she couldn’t help but spin around where she was standing and cheer loudly, “Great! I can learn to ride a horse and shoot arrows. I want to apply to the Imperial Academy, I want to become a woman official.”
“This child is acting so silly.”
Li Xiu’e laughed as she watched her older daughter bursting with joy, feeling truly happy.
“Mom, when are we going to return to Woniu Village? I also want to learn horse riding. ”
Su Qingluo affectionately rubbed her arm against Li Xiu’e’s and cooed sweetly.
“Does my little jade miss home?”
Li Xiu’e stooped and gently pinched her younger daughter’s soft cheek.
“Yes, yes.”
Su Qingluo nodded repeatedly to indicate her desire to return home.
She liked hunting in the mountains, digging up ginseng, picking mushrooms, liked swimming in the river, catching river clams, trapping crabs, liked the freedom of the countryside, liked the simplicity of the villagers.
She was homesick. After Little Baby left, she had genuinely wanted to go back home.
“Alright, we will go back home tomorrow.”
Li Xiu’e bent down, indulgently wrapping her arms around her younger daughter, and picked her up.
“We’re going home, we’re going home.”
Looking forward to the thrill of horse-riding and archery, Su Ziqin and Su Zixuan both started cheering loudly.
The next morning at dawn, Su Hu and his wife had packed their belongings. They left the newly bought courtyard under Grandma Wang’s care and embarked on the journey back home with their three eager children..
