Chapter 17 You are useless

Grandma Su finally felt a lot more at ease after hearing what Grandpa Su said.

In the past few days, in order to make the life of her family better, Grandma Su took the risk and took out the money and tickets Su Xiaotian gave her.

However, she was worried all the time, what if someone saw the clues!

Grandpa Su's method will come into use when the time comes.

"Old man, you saved so many people before, but not one of them thought about you. Now you want them to be good people in vain."

Thinking of the people who had been saved by Grandpa Su in the past, Grandma Su felt a little bit unhappy!

Grandpa Su said: "When I first rescued people, I never thought about letting others repay me. I just wanted to do something good for myself."

A few years ago, when the Su family gave birth to many boys at once, people in the village were envious of them.

At that time, some people said that the reason why the old Su family has a new and prosperous life is because of Grandpa Su’s good deeds and virtues in his early years.

Even Grandpa Su himself felt that this was a possibility.

For this reason, there are not many people in the village who do evil, and some are even willing to help others when they can.

"The children at home are healthy, which is a blessing. In the past few years, which family has not had children who died in infancy? Our children have grown up safely, so what else can we ask for?"

"Besides, our little sweetie is such a smart kid, what else can we be dissatisfied with?"

Su Xiaotian was affirmed by Chi Ge, and Grandpa Su felt that it was right to do good deeds back then.

Grandma Su didn't know what was going on in her old man's heart, so she just sighed and said, "I'm just saying it in vain, it's worth it to keep us safe in their name."

"Go to sleep, it's getting late, I'm still busy tomorrow."

The old couple had a busy day and soon fell asleep.

The Chi family's grandfather and grandson were in the cowshed, but they couldn't sleep.

Su Xiaotian gave them a huge shock, especially Chi Yiyuan.

"Grandpa, do you think Su Xiaotian is really so smart?"

It's not that I doubt it, I just find it incredible. Are there really such smart people in this world?

"It's too late to read books in this life. Maybe Su Xiaotian is such a person!" Chi Ge said leisurely.

No one knows that besides studying, he also learned some physiognomy skills.

Earlier, he had seen this girl who was very beloved by the old Su family, and knew that the child had a rough fate.

But when we meet again today, our fate has changed.

However, you cannot say these words to your grandson.

"Now that I'm teaching her, I'm also helping her with you."

Chi Yiyuan was silent, grandpa, what does this mean?

Why does he feel that grandpa is paving the way for him?

Could it be...

"Grandpa, is your illness serious?" Chi Yiyuan sounded anxious.

Grandpa had stomach problems. In the past few years, he had not been able to eat enough, and his stomach problems had become more and more serious.

Many times, he saw his grandfather break out in cold sweat from pain and nearly roll on the ground.

"Grandpa, this is an old problem, you don't have to worry." Chi Ge said in a hurry, fearing that his grandson would be worried.

His stomach problems were getting worse and worse. Several times, he worried that one day he would faint from the pain and never wake up again.

If he could have some kind of friendship with the people in the village, maybe Xiaoyuan could still have someone to rely on.

Although Xiaoyuan is smart, studious and sensible, he is just a teenager in his teens.

He was worried about leaving him alone in this world!

Fortunately, the people in the old Su family are very kind. I believe that if such a day comes, they can take some care of Xiao Yuan.

The next day.

During breakfast, Grandpa Su gave his grandsons a good lecture. He only said one sentence inside and outside, saying that they had read so many years of books in vain and were no longer as good as Su Xiaotian.

Several brothers from the Su family were dissatisfied with this. Although their sister was smart, she had only studied for less than a year. How could she be better than them?

But when grandpa praised his sister, they all suppressed their dissatisfaction.

She is the only sister, even if grandpa praises her, it doesn't matter.

"I see you brats are not convinced, so the old man will test you." Grandpa Su took out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it to Su Shouwen first.

Su Shouwen looked at Grandpa Su confused.

"Brother, grandpa asked you to read the newspaper." Su Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh.

My grandfather is really a lovely old man, he is learning and selling now.

"Read the newspaper?" Although Su Shouwen didn't understand why his grandfather asked him to read the newspaper, he still obediently picked up the newspaper and started reading.

Su Shouwen's newspaper was read fairly fluently. Su Xiaotian felt relieved after hearing that except for a few typos, everything else was fine.

However, when it was the turn of the second eldest child, Su Ciliang, this was not the case at all. Forget it, the reading was stumbling, and there were still many words that were read incorrectly. Either the white words were read, or the wrong words were read.

Su Xiaotian couldn't help but shake her head after hearing this.

The third child, Su Sangong, was more powerful than the two brothers. From what Su Xiaotian heard, she read everything correctly without even a single typo.

Then there are four, five, and six...

When the ninth child started reading, basically eight out of ten words were wrong. There was no way. The eighth child of the Su family was two years older than Su Xiaotian and was only in the second grade now.

"My dear, read it to them and let them hear what reading a newspaper means!" Grandpa Su stroked his goatee and said proudly to Su Xiaotian.

"Grandpa, my little sister has only been reading for a few days. How can she understand the characters in the newspaper?" Su Ciliang first said that grandpa was forcing himself to do something difficult.

He even looked at Su Xiaotian in embarrassment. What if the little girl couldn't read and was embarrassed to cry?

Do you want to skip school today and go to the mountains to find wild fruits for your little sister to make her happy?

Su Ciliang's words were exactly what the other brothers felt.

Old Jiu Su Jiulian also nodded quickly and said: "Sir, my little sister has been studying for less time than me. If I don't know the words, my little sister will definitely not know them either. It's better not to let me..."

He didn't say the last word, lest his little sister would be even more sad if she heard it.

"Hmph, do you think that my dear baby is as useless as you disobedient little bastards?" Grandpa Su snorted heavily.

Su Xiaotian hesitated. None of her brothers studied very well. What if she studied too well and her brothers lost face?

Su Xiaotian didn't know that her hesitation gave her brothers the illusion that she couldn't read at all.

The brothers looked at each other and, at the risk of being beaten with a broom by their grandfather, strongly requested that their sister not be allowed to read the newspaper.

"Huh, dear, you don't have to save face for them, just read it and let them know how bad they are, and maybe they can study hard."

Grandpa Su's last words made Su Xiaotian feel very reasonable.

Her goal is to let her brothers cherish the opportunity to study, learn more, and become useful talents in the future.

However, none of the brothers are doing well in studies now, and only the third brother is the best. This is not good.

While Su Xiaotian was thinking, Anna's voice appeared in her mind.
