The Sickly General's Wife With A Spatial Ability Is Loved By All

123 Lucky Star

Su Fengchen thought what the monk said was true. He knew his niece would one day spread her wings and soar like a phoenix rising from its ashes. Neither the villagers nor townsfolk would be able to keep up with Su Binglan then.

The monk also said Su Binlan was the ordinary folks’ lucky star. Su Fengchen became conflicted at that thought.

Su Binglan noticed her uncle’s strange gaze and touched her face. Then she asked, “I-Is there something on my face, Uncle Fengchen?”

Only then did Su Fengchen realize his niece had distracted him. He hurriedly shook his head and said, “I-It’s nothing. I just think you’re a competent person, Binglan.”

Su Binglan did not overthink it. She only thought her uncle was complimenting her, so she said smilingly, “You’re too kind, Uncle Fengchen.”

The two were talking when Old Master Su and Old Madam Su returned.

The two elders felt sorry for their youngest son and usually helped feed the chickens, ducks, and pigs. The couple had just returned from harvesting hogweed on the mountain.

The two revealed loving smiles when they saw their granddaughter.

“Hello, Binglan. Come, have a seat.” Old Madam Su hurriedly dropped her bag of hogweed and rushed over to pull Su Binglan into their house.

Su Binglan looked at her grandparents’ gray hair and felt a sourness in her heart. They were already old but still hard working. She did not want them to feel tired, only to retire.

She could earn money now and be dutiful to her grandparents, yet the elderly couple said they would feel uncomfortable if they did not work.

With that, Su Binglan could only think of giving them easy jobs. Therefore, she thought of telling them to weave small baskets and make some handicrafts because she also wanted to open a souvenir shop.

“I-It’s okay, Grandma. I’ve been sitting down for a while now. You and grandpa should sit down and rest instead.”

Old Madam Su said smilingly, “Your grandpa and I aren’t tired. We can rest assured now that we see you’re living a good life. You’re such a sensible child for wanting to help your uncle.”

Su Binglan said, “We are family, so we should help each other.”

Old Madam Su said, “You’re right.” She knew only a united and harmonious family could make a living.

Old Madam Su seemed to have thought of something as she spoke. She said, “Oh, your grandfather and I made that little flower basket you talked about. What do you think?”

Old Madam Su went to another room as she spoke to remove the basket she had knitted. The flower basket was small but clean, exquisite, and beautiful.

Su Binglan’s eyes lit up when she looked at it. “You did an excellent job, Grandma and Grandpa.”

Old Madam Su held the little basket and said, “Weaving something like this is straightforward and won’t take much effort, but what’s the use of this? Even farmers use bigger baskets.”

The little basket looked appealing to the elderly couple, but they thought it was not practical. Still, the elderly couple just listened to their granddaughter and only cared for her happiness.

Su Binglan explained, “I plan to use these little baskets as packaging for my desserts.”

“P-Packaging?” Old Madam Su felt puzzled because the basket was small and could not hold many things.

Su Binglan nodded and said, “Grandma, look. I can put three pieces of dessert in it, hold it like this, and make the desserts feel more expensive. Don’t you think so?”

Old Madam Su finally understood what her granddaughter meant and said, “Indeed, it looks more precious that way.”

“Yes, if a wealthy family buys my desserts, they can give them to their children as gifts, making them seem like they have good taste,” Su Binglan continued.

Old Madam Su held her granddaughter’s hand and smiled lovingly. She patted the back of Su Binglan’s hand and said, “You’re amazing for thinking of such things.”
