Chapter 3: I’m Useless, I’m Sorry

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xu Fengqiao was shocked by her earth-shattering cries. “Why is Xiao Yu crying non-stop?”

Of course, Su Xiaoyu could not respond to her. She could only continue crying.

Su Changsheng was also confused and worried that the child would fall ill from crying so much as soon as she was born.

“Child’s mother, is the child hungry?”

Only then did Xu Fengqiao remember that she had not fed her yet, so she quickly fed her.

“Be good and drink the milk. Don’t cry after drinking it.”

Xiaoyu suddenly stopped crying as the woman held her in her arms and she smelled the woman’s fragrance.

Xu Fengqiao finally heaved a sigh of relief. By the time the baby fell asleep after eating, her entire body went limp and she no longer had any strength.

Su Xiaoqiu entered the room at this moment and came forward to greet her. Then, he took his sister from her arms.

At this moment, Su Changsheng hurriedly walked in with a bowl of egg soup. His heart ached when he saw his wife on the bed, who was extremely weak and whose hair was drenched in sweat.

He helped her up. “Get up first. I made you some egg soup. Smell it. Does it smell good?”

Xu Fengqiao smelled the fragrance and subconsciously swallowed her saliva.

In this family, eggs were very rare. They barely ate it a few times a year.

Although she wanted to eat it, she could not bear to when she thought of the many children at home.

“I’m not eating. I’ll just have some millet porridge. You can give it to the kids.”

Su Xiaoqiu hugged his sister. Although he also yearned for the bowl of egg soup, he did not even look at it.

“Mother, it was tough for you to give birth to Sister. Hurry up and eat. You can only feed her when you have the strength.”

Su Changsheng agreed. “That’s right, have it now.”

Xu Fengqiao looked at the baby in Su Xiaoqiu’s arms and smiled weakly.

“That’s true. This sister of yours can really eat. Her appetite is bigger than yours when you were young!”

With that, she picked up the egg soup and dug in.

Her body was very weak after giving birth. Xu Fengqiao fell asleep after eating.

Su Changsheng helped her clean up and left.

Although it was finally raining, this rain could not solve their family’s emergency. Now that there was another family member at home, even eating became a problem.

He looked out at his three sons and called them together.

“I know that you guys can’t eat your fill every day, but now that there’s a younger sister in the family, our family has to be more diligent. No matter what, we can always find a way to survive!”

Xiaochun and Xiaoqiu were in their teens, and their faces were full of vigor.

“Father, don’t worry. We will definitely be more diligent. We will definitely let Mother and Sister live well!”

Su Changsheng looked at their young faces and could not bear to see them like this.

But in this situation, it was useless no matter how much he could not bear to.

“From tomorrow onwards, I’ll go to the fields every day and plant those few acres of land. I’ll strive to keep the family from starving. Xiaodong is the youngest. He’ll be in charge of taking care of Mother and Sister when I’m not at home. Xiaochun and Xiaoqiu…”

“Father, we’ll go to town to work!”

The two brothers said in unison, but it made Su Changsheng’s heart ache even more.

He looked at his three sons, who were all skin and bones, and felt even worse.

“Dad’s useless. I’m sorry…”

Xiaoqiu was the oldest and had the calmest personality.

“Father, we all know that our family’s current situation is all because of Grandma… We all understand, but Father, you can’t let her do whatever she wants in the future.”

The reason why the Su family was the poorest family in Ancient Tree Village was that Old Madam Su had tightly held onto the few acres of land that Old Master Su had passed down to Su Changsheng. She would rather leave it desolate than give it to him. The land that they were farming now was rented from someone else.

As for money, she held it even tighter. Every time she came over, she would take this and that.

Su Changsheng saw this, but every time he wanted to stop her, she would start crying.

She would talk about how difficult it had been for her. Her husband had died at such a young age. Even her eldest son had left before her.

Su Changsheng had always been a kind and honest person, so he always turned a blind eye. It was because of this that Xu Fengqiao suffered a lot with him.

Thinking of his wife’s frail appearance after giving birth, and his newborn daughter, he steeled himself and nodded.

“Don’t worry, I won’t be soft-hearted towards your grandmother anymore.”
