Su Sanmei felt a lump in her throat and nodded obediently. "Thank you, Father. I've always been happy."

For a child, she had endured something she shouldn't have, but she had, and she felt happy, too, knowing that her family loved her back.

Even when Su Chong and Su Hua were mentally impaired, they knew to dote on her as a sister. They never knew what to do, but what she asked them to do, they always did well.

Even her youngest sister was loving her in her own way. She had learned it already, but pretended not to know it for her sake. She had known it all along.

So, with so much love, she had always been happy.

Su Xiaoling lowered her eyes and smiled slightly.

Su Sanlang stroked Su Xiaolu's hair and looked into her lively and beautiful eyes. He said gently, "Xialu, you have to grow up happy too."

Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly. She pulled Su Sanlang's head down and kissed his cheek. "Thank you, father. Father and mother must also be happy and live a long life."

Su Xiaolu was next to Madam Zhao. She turned around and leaned into Madam Zhao's arms, acting cute.

Madam Zhao's heart almost melted. She touched Su Xiaolu's hair with tears in her eyes.

Su Sanlang returned to his seat and sat down. He said respectfully to Old Wu, "Big Brother, let's eat."

Old Wu was getting tired of waiting. He nodded. "Then let's eat."

The dishes were getting cold. Alas, that was annoying lyricism.

After Old Wu started eating, everyone started eating.

The Su family had always been very focused on eating. They ate the dishes in peace.

Su Sanlang drank with Old Wu.

The meal lasted until dark.

Old Wu went back next door to sleep after getting drunk.

Su Sanlang was also drunk. He really wanted to sleep, but he was still thinking about the bowls and chopsticks. He said to Madam Zhao, who was supporting him, "Dear, tomorrow... clean up..."

Madam Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, okay. I understand. Don't worry and sleep."

Looking at Su Sanlang, who was still thinking about her despite being drunk, Madam Zhao's gaze was very gentle.

She gently stroked his face, then got up and went out to clean up.

Su Xiaoling had already come to help. Even Su Xiaolu had come to help.

Madam Zhao's heart was warm and sweet. She gently stroked her two daughters' hair and said, "I don't need your help. Go wash up and sleep."

There were no rules at home, so they could sleep after eating New Year's Eve dinner. It was just that the fire in the stove kept the hot water warm.

Su Xiaoling smiled and said, "Mother, Xiaolu and I will help you wash up before sleeping."

Su Xiaolu nodded and said, "Mother, trust me. I will definitely do it well."

Madam Zhao smiled and nodded. "Alright then."

The mother and daughters cleaned the dishes together.

When Su Hua returned with the foot basin, he said to Madam Zhao guiltily, "Mother, I'm sorry. I should have come earlier."

When he was washing Zhou Heng's feet, Zhou Heng was also teaching him. Since it would take a while to soak his feet anyway, he focused on learning.

Madam Zhao said gently, "I don't need your help with such a small matter. Wash up and go to sleep. Take care of Heng at night."

Zhou Heng was so sensible that it made one's heart ache. Madam Zhao always instructed Su Chong and Su Hua to take care of Zhou Heng.

Su Hua nodded. "Yes, yes, I will."

Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling also went to wash up and return to their rooms.

As soon as Su Xiaolu fell asleep, she entered the Space to look at the herbs she had planted.

The two visible acres of black soil were filled with medicinal herbs, many of which were common. The only relatively precious herb was ginseng that she had encountered and dug herself. It was growing very well now.

The common medicinal herbs grew well, and the spiritual spring water was still full of spiritual energy. The water flow had always been flowing, but outside these two acres, it was all white. She touched the edge as if there was an invisible protective shield isolating it.

She hadn't paid attention to it since the first time she came here.

She was not in a hurry to harvest the medicinal herbs planted. These were commonly used to stop bleeding, prevent colds, and treat high fever and stomach aches.

She hadn't had a chance to use it, and she didn't know how effective it would be.

She looked around her domain like a lord, then left the Space to sleep.

It was the first day of the new year.

After the New Year, Su Xiaolu finished administering acupuncture to Zhou Heng at noon. After applying medicine to his leg, she said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, carry Brother Zhou Heng outside. From today onwards, he will practice walking."

Su Chong and Su Hua immediately did as they were told.

This was Zhou Heng's first time practicing walking. Even Old Wu was watching with him.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao also followed. After a while, the family surrounded the two poles that Su Sanlang had built.

Su Chong put Zhou Heng back in the wooden wheelchair.

Zhou Heng looked at the two poles in front of him. He was a little nervous. He had not walked for three years. Could he really stand up again?

"I'm sure you can, Little Brother Heng."

Su Xiaoling looked at Zhou Heng firmly. She believed that Zhou Heng would definitely be able to stand up.

Zhou Heng glanced at Su Xiaoling and turned around. He took a deep breath and reached out to grab the two poles. Then, he stood up with trembling feet.

The moment he stood up, he felt the excruciating pain. It crawled up his entire body from the soles of his feet. In an instant, his face turned pale from the pain. He placed the bars under his armpits and leaned his weight against them to prevent himself from falling back into the wooden wheelchair.

The sight made everyone nervous.

"Little Brother Heng, you can definitely do it. You're the most powerful Little Brother Heng."

Su Chong clenched his fists and shouted firmly at Zhou Heng.

Su Hua also shouted, "Yes, Little Brother Heng is the most powerful. You can definitely do it."

"Big Brother Zhou Heng is the best."

Su Xiaolu also clenched her fists and made a cheering gesture.

"Heng is the best."

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao also encouraged Zhou Heng.

Old Wu coughed lightly and said uncomfortably, "Hang in there. You can do it."

With that, he turned around and left.

He'd better not look at something so emotional. He didn't like it at all.

It was only a matter of time before Zhou Heng could stand up again. The Su family was too agitated. There was no need.

After Old Man Wu left, Su Sanlang's family still encouraged Zhou Heng enthusiastically. With every step he took, they encouraged him. They seemed to be even happier than Zhou Heng.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao's eyes turned red.

Zhou Heng had only taken ten steps and was already sweating profusely. His legs kept trembling. Every step he took, he wanted to sit back in the comfortable wooden wheelchair. However, every time, he thought that with such a family taking care of him and encouraging him to stand up again, how could he disappoint them? How could he make such sparkling eyes dim? Therefore, every time he felt that he could not hold on anymore, he persevered.
