Elite Doting Marriage: Crafty Husband, Aloof Cute Wife

This area housed many Chinese, and there were only a handful of locals.

The original owners next door were an elderly couple, but they recently moved back to their country.

“That’s great!” The helper clapped her hands.

Su Yue stared at her, puzzled. “Why are you so excited?”

“I feel bad about receiving all the time. Now we can finally return the favor.” She smiled and pointed to the kitchen. “I’ll start cooking now.”

Su Yue nodded. “Mm.”

She placed the box against a wall and followed her to the kitchen.

Her helper began to wash some vegetables, and Su Yue said, “Aunty, tomorrow, I’ll send Xiaojiao to school. At night, I need you to fetch her as I’m starting school too.”

She had already decided to continue studying.

“Sure. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of Xiaojiao,” said the helper.

Su Yue nodded, although she wasn’t entirely reassured.

But, she needed to move on, didn’t she?

…

It was a new school term and the campus was bustling with activities. Su Yue had applied to continue studying at her previous school.

The school had fewer restrictions, so she could still attend classes when she was pregnant.

And when both she and Jiao Chen had classes together, she would bring Xiaojiao along to classes, too.

Today, she wore a pale green pleated skirt and it billowed around her legs in the wind.

Su Yue tied her hair into a loose ponytail. No one could even imagine that she was already a mother.

She bumped into familiar faces on the way.

“Su! It has been a long time.”

Two girls with blue eyes smiled warmly at Su Yue.

The girls in Country M were relatively taller and bigger. So when Su Yue stood next to them, she appeared even skinnier and tinier than usual.

Su Yue smiled at them. “Yeah, it’s been some time.”

“Where is the adorable girl?” one of them asked.

Su Yue replied, “She started kindergarten.”

The girl was startled and said, “Wow! She is already in kindergarten!”

Su Yue smiled.

Time flew by so quickly indeed. She remembered how she used to cry all night when she was a baby.

And she was hospitalized frequently. But now she was already attending kindergarten.

Su Yue sighed quietly in her heart, and she prepared to bid them goodbye.

Suddenly one of the girls glanced at her. “Oh, yeah. Last year you gave me some pickled bean curd and it was delicious. I went to a Chinese supermarket for some, but the taste was different. Can you introduce me to an online store where I can buy it?”

“Huh!”

Online store? An online store selling pickled bean curd? How would she know?

Su Yue pondered for a moment. “My brother is coming over in a few days. I’ll ask him to bring some over.”

Jiao Chen brought back some pickled bean curd and coriander last year. But she didn’t really like it, so she shared them with her classmates.

To think foreigners would like the taste.

The girl smiled happily. “Sure, I’ll pay you.”

Su Yue pressed her lips and smiled. “You’re too polite.”

But she didn’t decline her gesture.

She was already used to them being clear about money issues. They usually go dutch during meals as well.

They weren’t being stingy but rather they believed that everyone should pay for what they had bought. So once they were of legal age, their parents wouldn’t bother to give them allowance anymore.
