Su Qing’s sewing skills and patience had improved. Under Su Wen’s guidance, the size of each stitch was uniform. Everything had to be perfect. Because of Su Wen’s exacting requirements, progress was slow.
...Thankfully, the goods were set to be delivered in a month. From now till then, Su Wen and Su Qing only needed to focus on the custom-made bags Zhang Miao had ordered.
There was more than enough time.
It was also why she had spare time to write the scumbag’s handbook – a guide to identifying those men of nefarious bent. If she could get it published, wouldn’t she turn a profit? Books were king. Millions of best-selling authors would sprout like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and the trend would continue for ten to twenty years.
Su Wen decided to snag a piece of the pie before her competitors emerged.
“Big Sister, we’re back!” As soon as Fifth Sister entered the house, she greeted Su Wen happily. Unlike the last time she returned, she received a warm welcome from her older sisters.
Eager to learn how she had done, even Su Xiu, now in charge of kitchen duties, popped out to see how she was.
“How did it go? Was the exam difficult?”
“Did you do well enough to enter high school?”
All eyes were on the two who had just returned, nervous tension filling the air. Even Su Wen had put her pen down, standing up to stretch. “When will the results be posted?” she asked, “Are you confident in yourself?”
As the novel had not mentioned how well they had done, Su Wen did not know whether her sisters had passed or failed their exams.
Su Wen hoped her younger sisters would do well in their studies but did not want to put too much pressure on them. Soon, Sun Yunyun would be admitted to a university and become the first university student in Clear Water County. No matter her past misdeeds, she would become the apple of the public’s eye once she entered university.
Sun Yunyun’s achievement of becoming the first student to be admitted into university in their county would overshadow all her past mistakes, and the villagers would do their best to curry favor with the girl who had shot to stardom. As for herself, Su Wen was under no illusions that she would come out unscathed. Sun Yunyun would almost certainly use her as a stepping stone, rendering most of her previous efforts in vain.
It was not something she could take lying down. Sun Yunyun would use her prestige to get closer to Zhou Hengyang, and it was not something she could allow.
To lose the public’s goodwill was one thing, but to lose her husband was too much! Would any woman stand by and watch another ruin their relationship?
She, Su Wen, would not tolerate this.
Su Wen knew all this, but she could do nothing to prevent it. It was not like she could enter university and steal the spotlight from Sun Yunyun. Although she had graduated from a famous university before she became ‘Su Wen’ in the novel she had read, it was not a guarantee she could pass the entrance exams now.
Forget it, forget it!
Su Wen punted those thoughts to the back of her mind, instead focusing her hopes on Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister entering the county high school.
“There should not have been any problems.” Despite her low spirits, Su Xue still forced a mask of cheerfulness. “Don’t worry, Big Sister! Just sit tight for the good news!”
Su Wen had gotten a better grasp of Su Xue’s personality recently. Knowing that Su Xue was confident immediately put her at ease.
“You’ve both worked hard. Take a well-deserved break now that you’re done with your exams. I’ll whip up something delicious for tonight’s dinner to celebrate!”
Su Wen’s declaration elicited enthusiastic applause from Sixth Sister and Little Sister Su. They loved it whenever Su Wen cooked. Their older sister often surprised them, cooking delectable delicacies they had never eaten before. The wontons their Big Sister had made the previous night were delicious!
When they returned to their room, Su Xue could not help but ask softly, “Fifth Sister, why didn’t you tell Big Sister?”
“I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get in. I don’t want to get Big Sister’s hopes up for nothing.” Fifth Sister could tell how much importance Su Wen placed on their studies and did not want to disappoint her.
“You can do it.” Su Xue patted Fifth Sister on the shoulder with a complicated look in her eyes. “I believe in you..”
