Chapter 111 The Three Liu Sisters Learn to Read
A big question mark appeared on Su Nuannuan's face. She didn't understand what the three of them were worried about.
In the end, it was Liu Zhaodi who spoke up.

"Nuan Nuan, we can't read."

After Liu Zhaodi finished speaking, the three Liu sisters all lowered their heads in self-consciousness.

Compared to Su Nuannuan, who got into university, they were like insects crawling in the mud, worlds apart from her. Although Su Nuannuan was younger than all three of them, they still felt very inferior whenever they were around her.

Seeing the three of them looking embarrassed, Su Nuannuan really didn't expect that the reason was this.

Su Nuannuan patted her head. She should have realized it sooner; given Sun Dahua's personality, she definitely wouldn't let the three sisters go to school.

In fact, the three sisters are the norm in the village.

If it weren't for the benefits of getting into university, no one in the village would have thought of sending their children to school.

Seeing the three sisters' state, Su Nuannuan frowned. The fact that the three of them were illiterate was a major problem.

However, Su Nuannuan couldn't help the three of them and could only helplessly express her opinion.

"If you want to make more money by digging for medicinal herbs, you still need to know a few words."

Liu Zhaodi thought about Su Nuannuan's words, a determined look flashing across her face, and said to Su Nuannuan.

"I understand. Nuannuan, thank you for your book."

Seeing that Liu Zhaodi did not refuse the book she gave her, Su Nuannuan knew that she had taken her words to heart.

In fact, Su Nuannuan was also guiding the three of them to learn to read. The fact that the three of them were able to separate from the Liu family and even knew how to make money by selling herbs shows that they have very resilient characters.

For girls like these, if they could learn a few more words, they would surely have a good life in the future. The three Liu sisters are now in the prime of their youth, and they have earned some money selling herbs; this is a good time for them to learn to read.

With this in mind, Su Nuannuan decided to give the three of them some more help.

"Just a moment."

After saying that, he ran back to his room.

The three Liu sisters looked at each other, and Liu Xiangdi spoke first.

"Big sister, we can't accept any more of Nuannuan's things."

Liu Pandi nodded as well.

Liu Zhaodi patted her two younger sisters' heads and said.

"Don't worry, I won't accept Nuannuan's things. We'll leave when she comes back."

Su Nuannuan went back and entered her own space. Since the three Liu sisters wanted to learn to read, how could they be without literacy tools?

Su Nuannuan used her mental power to search through the warehouse and found the pencils and notebooks she had stored away before. The pencils were just ordinary pencils, and the notebooks were second-rate exercise books that Su Nuannuan had bought wholesale from the Yiwu Small Mall. Three notebooks could be bought for one yuan, which was perfect for the Liu sisters to practice with.

After taking out those two items, Su Nuannuan also bought a pencil sharpener and three erasers. She put these items into a bag and carried it out.

"These are my used pencils and notebooks, for you to use when you learn to read."

When Liu Zhaodi saw that Su Nuannuan was giving them more gifts, how could they possibly accept them? So, she waved her hands repeatedly and refused.

“Nuan Nuan, you’ve already helped us a lot. We can’t accept this.”

Upon hearing Liu Zhaodi's words, Su Nuannuan looked disapproving.

“If you can read and go to the city to buy these, it will definitely cost a lot of money. You might as well use mine; these are all what I had left over. You don’t need to feel burdened.”

When literacy was mentioned, Liu Zhaodi's expression softened somewhat.

However, she wouldn't take Su Nuannuan's things for nothing. So, she took out a piece of coarse cloth wrapped in her pocket, unwrapped it, and found a roll of money inside.

Liu Zhaodi counted out a few bills and handed them to Su Nuannuan, saying...

“We can’t take your things for free. Consider this payment for these items.” This money was what the three Liu sisters had earned by digging for medicinal herbs over the past two months. Liu Pandi and Liu Xiangdi didn’t complain when their eldest sister gave the money to Su Nuannuan; in fact, they felt it was only natural.

Su Nuannuan's help to them could not be repaid with money. Liu Zhaodi gave Su Nuannuan money so that they would owe her less.

Meeting Liu Zhaodi's persistent gaze, Su Nuannuan swallowed the words of refusal that were on the tip of her tongue.

"Alright, I'll accept the money. And please don't refuse these things."

This time, Liu Zhaodi did not refuse the bag that Su Nuannuan handed her.

After saying goodbye to the three sisters, Su Nuannuan went home.

After the three Liu sisters returned home, they took out the herbs from their baskets and spread them out on the ground.

However, the three of them sat down in the courtyard and started reading the "Encyclopedia of Chinese Herbal Medicine" that Su Nuannuan had given them.

They didn't recognize any of the characters in the Encyclopedia of Chinese Herbal Medicine. However, that didn't stop them from finding it fascinating.

After her second and third sisters finished reading, Liu Zhaodi put away the "Encyclopedia of Chinese Herbal Medicines" and carefully wrapped it in her clothes.

Then, Liu Zhaodi opened the bag that Su Nuannuan had given her. The moment Liu Zhaodi took the bag from Su Nuannuan, she knew she hadn't paid enough.

She gave Su Nuannuan a total of one yuan. However, the weight of the bag told her that there were many things inside, and their value far exceeded one yuan.

After the bag was opened, Liu Zhaodi looked at the contents and thought to herself, 'Just as I thought.'

"Hey lady, this is a pencil!"

Liu Xiangdi excitedly took out the twenty pencils bundled together and stroked the prints on them with her little hands.

Liu Pandi took out her exercise books. Looking at the six brand-new exercise books, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She said to Liu Zhaodi.

"Big sister, look."

After saying that, he opened his exercise book and showed it to her.

Looking at these things, Liu Zhaodi felt a pang of sadness. These weren't Su Nuannuan's leftovers; they were clearly gifts Su Nuannuan had specially prepared for them.

She had only ever seen these school supplies before, and her younger brother treasured them.

Once, when Liu Pandi was washing clothes, she accidentally got Liu Xiaobao's notebook wet, and the little brother's face immediately turned black.

Although Liu Xiaobao didn't hit them, he later told Sun Dahua about it. Sun Dahua then beat Liu Pandi's hand badly and wouldn't let her eat.

After this incident, the three Liu sisters kept their distance from their younger brother's stationery.

None of the three had ever encountered such a thing before, and they were all quite curious. These things were very precious to them.

Liu Xiangdi stroked the pencil in her hand with great affection and said to Liu Zhaodi.

"Big sister, are we really going to use these things to write in the future? I'm reluctant to part with them."

Liu Zhaodi patted Liu Xiangdi's head and said.

"Yes. We can't waste Nuannuan's kindness. You must study hard from now on."

After hearing Liu Zhaodi's words, Liu Xiangdi blinked and said.

"Big sister, aren't you and second sister going to learn to read with me?"

Liu Zhaodi shook her head and did not continue speaking.

She wanted to send her third sister to school. She and her second sister would dig for medicinal herbs to earn money to support her third sister. Once her third sister learned to read at school, she would teach them.

However, we still need to discuss this matter with my second sister.
