Chapter Seventy-Three: The Feeling of Getting Rich Overnight
Mercado led them back to the bedroom, Emma followed Suri into the room, Suri sat on the sofa seriously, watching Emma stirring her fingers and hesitant little eyes, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and said bluntly: "Little Emma, you can ask whatever you want." ”
Emma shook her head anxiously, raised her hand and said: "This is my sister's secret, Emma doesn't ask, and she won't tell it, sister, please believe me, I really won't tell it." ”
Look at her anxiously swearing, so sensible, and remember that she was careful outside the door just now, and it feels good to treat each other sincerely.
Su Rui gently pulled her to her side and sat down, looking at her flattered little pitiful appearance head-on, and suddenly wanted to tease her, and her face gradually became serious.
Emma's whole back stiffened, revealing nervous little eyes, she was like a frightened little rabbit, seeing that Su Rui couldn't hold back her laughter, she said with relief: "Teasing you, don't be nervous." ”
Looking at her body slowly relaxed and sitting, with a simple smile, Su Rui said sincerely: "Emma, thank you." ”
Emma hurriedly waved her hand and said seriously: "Sister doesn't need to thank you, this is what Emma wants to do, and please don't blame Emma for hiding witchcraft, because my mother said that witchcraft will only bring me trouble, so ......"
When she lowered her head as if she had done something wrong, Suri touched her head and smiled, "It's okay, it's Emma's private matter, and your mother is not unreasonable and understandable." ”
"Really, doesn't my sister blame me?"
Looking at her excited gaze, Su Rui nodded with a smile, suddenly remembered something, twisted away and asked with a straight smile: "In the ancient city, it was said that your mother was sick, can I ask what kind of disease your mother has?"
Speaking of this question, Emma made a sad face and sighed lightly: "Mom's heart problem began a long time ago, but now it is getting worse and worse, before going out, she asked me to go to the ancient castle to worship and pray to Lord Shira, the god of dreams, saying that this is her wish. ”
"Sister, do you know, for me, these five spike tickets are my mother's hopes and wishes, and it is-" At this point, Emma choked up and cried, and then wiped it off, and said sincerely: "It's the only money left in the family, in order to treat my mother's illness, the family is already poor, and now it's even more of a family, and the only remaining five spike tickets are still earned by selling my bed, but I didn't expect the price of white roses to rise in the end, when I was helpless and sad, it was you who helped me, I really thank you." ”
"Mom said that people should be grateful and not ungrateful, this is the basic quality of a person, so in the future, as long as my sister says a word or needs Emma, Emma is a definition and will never shirk. ”
Her words made Suri both distressed and moved.
Su Rui has some bad premonitions, if these dialogues appear in the TV series, eight or nine will not be far from ten, and that person will already receive a boxed lunch.
However, these are all bloody episodes of TV series, and they can't be taken seriously.
Su Rui comforted himself, took Emma's hand and said seriously, "Emma, is there anyone else in your family?"
Emma shook her head and said, "My father and brother died when I was very young, working in the pond to make a living, and my mother and I were the only ones left in the family. ”
"And your mom is home alone now?"
Seeing her frowning, Emma hurriedly shook her head and explained, "No, before I went out, my mother was with Aunt Wang in the next room, and Aunt Wang said that she would take care of my mother for me." ”
Su Rui nodded silently and said seriously: "Emma, your mother still needs you, I have Master Curry here for their protection, hurry home tomorrow morning, when your mother is better, you can go to the White Mansion to find me at any time, or I will go to the Sixteenth District to find you when I am done." ”
"But Mom said—"
Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Su Rui straightened her body and said, "Emma, my sister knows your intentions, and you have already repaid it, and you and I will be equal to you in the future, you don't owe me anything, you know?"
Emma was stunned, then nodded slowly.
Su Rui breathed a sigh of relief, touched her little head, and said meaningfully: "Emma, you have to remember that life, old age, sickness and death are natural laws, remember that I am here." "Although I am the object that needs to be protected, it is useless, but I am not a villain with a beautiful heart.
Emma was simple-minded, so she naturally didn't expect the deep meaning in her words, and she was so moved by her words that she burst into tears and nodded heavily.
"Well, Emma will remember. ”
"It's so good, it's so cute. Suri smiled and pinched her cheek, complimenting Emma with an embarrassed smile.
"Miss Suri, have you slept?" said the butler, knocking on the door three times.
The reason why Su Rui didn't sleep was that he knew that someone would definitely come, but he didn't expect it to be the housekeeper, and he was about to get up to open the door after being slightly stunned, Emma stood up first, and ran over and twisted the door lightly.
The butler stepped into the door along her sideways, holding a chest of classical carved mahogany in both hands.
Mrs. West's commands?
When Su Rui was puzzled, the housekeeper gently put the mahogany box on the tea table and said respectfully: "Miss Su Rui, this is a thank you gift from Madame, she said that it is very important for girls to have money." ”
It is estimated that he saw that he even had to ask Eva Roy for ten spike tickets, so he sent money.
Suri is very sure that she is not a gold worshipper, nor is she a greedy person, but she does need money, and she only has 24k pure gold fingers in her pocket now, and the feeling of being penniless is really panicked.
Seeing her hesitating, the housekeeper smiled and said, "Miss Surui, the master is not here, Miss Windsor is the backbone of Blue Villa City, so these are all worth taking for you." ”
Suri glanced at Emma, thinking that she was embarrassed to ask for it now, and that she would have to make money cheekily if she didn't have any money in the future, and she didn't grind anymore when she thought about it, and thanked her heartily: "Thank you to Mrs. West for me, this is what Suri needs most." ”
The butler smiled and nodded, then stepped back, closing the door with his hand.
Su Rui opened the wooden box and looked at the stacked 100 yuan bills inside, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"I'm not poor at all, and it feels good to be rich. ”
As he spoke, Suri picked up a bundle of tassel tickets and took Emma's hand, who was stunned.
Emma was surprised: "Sister, you have 10,000 spike tickets, you want to give it to me?"
"Hmm. Su Rui replied to her simply and clearly, closed the wooden box lightly, and everything he said and did was natural and relaxed.
Emma felt her hands heavy.
Su Rui knew that she was going to start saying this and that again, so she hurriedly said in front of her: "If you take it, take it, without you guarding the outside of the room, how can I solve the problem with peace of mind, and you don't need it, your mother also needs it, don't grind, put it away." ”
"Knock, knock, knock"
There were three more knocks outside the door.
"Collect it quickly, money should not be exposed. At Suri's urging, Emma quickly stuffed the tassel ticket into her sack cross-body bag, then glanced at Suri and trotted over to open the door with her nod.
Is it Yom, or Lilia, or Master Curry this time?
Or maybe it's Wendy, who came to grow her hair for herself?
While Suri was guessing, the door slowly opened, and the person at the door surprised her.
Housekeeper: Go and return, is it time for dinner?
But why is his eyes a little different? a little deep......
