Translated by: NekoCat
Seeing that Su Wangqin had entered the stove room, Sister Fu took some badger oil and smeared it on Gu Chunzhu's scratched cheek, "Don't think too much about this medicine! Everyone's family has a bottle at home, it can be used for scalds, burns, stab wounds and the like."
"I see,thank you sister-in-law."
Gu Chunzhu hugged Xiaocheng, her hair messed up the same as Qui shi and since she had lost alot of weight recently, she looked quite pitiful.
Sister Fu didn't take into account the presence of the two children, she held Gu Chunzhu's hand wanting to talk to her.
Her lips moved and she persuaded: "Actually, Wangqin is very good to you. If he hadn't protected you today, seeing your mother-in-law's temperement, she will definitely scrape you off to subsidize the second child's family.
" If it wasn't for him, I would have left with my two children." Gu Chunzhu's apricot eyes released some kind of tenacious energy, she firmly added: "I have hands. I can fish and sell shrimps, It 's better to fight with those strangers than fight with them every three days."
These two children are Wangqin's, how can she take them away with her, Sister Fu thought in her heart but she didn't say this out loud, but as soon as she saw Gu Chunzhu's serious expression, her thought changed completely. She can see that Chunzu loved the children very much and it was also a blessing for these two kids.
There was a figure shaking at the kitchen door. Su Wangqin's face was never gloomy like before. He silently went to the stove to set the fire.
"Just be patient, bear it for a while like me" Sister Fu patted Gu Chunzhu's hand.
"I can't endure it." Gu Chunzhu knew what Sister Fu meant. She was relieved when Old Mrs Su kicked her legs. Her life was only a few decades long. Why should she endure the hardships.

With stubbornness in her eyes, she looked at Sister Fu's caring face and said "When I earn money, I want to move to town or county, I will not live here and suffer grievance ! "
To her surprise, Sister Fu's eyes shone with light. Her plump face showed approval and said, "I think so too. It's convenient for Dazhuang to study in town!"
The two women suddenly became like-minded and talked a lot.
Gu Chunzhu wanted to move because there were too many excellent relatives here in the village, on the other hand she also sells river prawns in the town every day, her heart cannot rest everytime she leaves the two children here.
"Does sister-in-law know how much a house cost in town?" Since sister-in-law Fu also wanted to live in town, she must have known a lot about the market.
Sister Fu didn't hide it from her, "A house with one entry and one exit costs 10 taels and a house with two or more entry are more expensive, it costs 15 taels." Gu Chunzhu was stunned by the price. She didn't quite understand this. What does it mean? She asked Sister Fu in detail and she also explained it to her.
As soon as you enter the house its like a courtyard, a courtyard surrounded by three houses.
The house with two entrances has a passage on the wall of the yard, and there is a courtyard next to it, and the two interconnected courtyards are then connected. There is a front yard and a back yard for those who have three entrances. This is where the ordinary wealthy people live, especially for those who have four entrances and five entrances.
Hearing what Sister Fu said, Gu Chunzhu learned a lot.
"What about the rent, how much is the rent?" Gu Chunzhu asked curiously.
Now the family's savings are only few silver coins, it is not so easy to buy a house in town.

8 226Witch of Andania
Laura Alexandra Muriel is the willful 16-year-old crown princess of the island kingdom of Andania. Endowed with breathtaking beauty and well-versed in both the twin arts of magic and the zither, she’s the gem of the imperial family. However, the golden age of Andania is long past and the weakened nation is besieged by the northern protectorate of Vaishya and threatened by the southern slave empire of Saadian. As the flames of war ignite throughout the world and Andania teeters on the brink of destruction, the nation’s survival demands the ultimate sacrifice from one to save the many. A civilization with two opposing systems of magic. Ancient Magic: Wielded only by Andanian witches, emphasizes innate Talent and self-sacrifice for higher magic (Talismans, Song). New Creation Magic: Preferred by the high gods & the rest of the world, requires sacrificing the life energy and blood of others for higher magic (Spells, Incantations & countless other forms). A world with two antagonistic superpowers and an island nation forced to the brink of extinction. Protectorate of Vaishya: The world’s largest trading union. Calcutta, the capital is the wealthiest city on earth, and ruled by the benevolent Zimran royal family, who seeks to establish a trading monopoly on unique Andanian magic. Empire of Saadian: The world’s mightiest slave empire. Riyadh, the capital is the grandest city on earth, built on the backs of countless slaves, and ruled by the Immortal Emperor Xerxes, who seeks exclusive rights to the immense military potential of unique Andanian magic. Andania: In its golden age, its unrivalled magical wares were famous throughout the known world. Magical artifacts with unimaginable power, flying fleets of steel, and enchantments that rivaled the divine blessings of gods. But today. An aged powerless king clings on to power with his two young daughters, the last of the ancient witches of Andania. And as the fleets of both Vaishya & Saadian crest the horizon, the survival of the nation is threatened as never before. And two princesses that simply wanted to spend a happy childhood together in peace. Laura Alexandra Muriel: The willful & stubborn elder sister and The Witch of Andania, the title granted to the most accomplished witch of her generation. Her sworn duty, to sacrifice even her very life, to ensure the safety of her people. Her greatest love and lifelong competitor, her dearest younger twin sister. Lily Alexandra Muriel: The kind & supportive younger sister and the undisputed genius in the zither and song. Her only wish, to live in peace and quiet with her elder twin. Her curse, a power that could doom an empire to desolation. What’s the worst that could happen? A forbidden Tower, that can grant any wish. A forgotten Species, resides within the darkest depths of the seas. An ancient Serpent, plots to usurp the remnants of the high gods. Powerful witches, desperate wishes, lost memories. Immortal emperor, devious archmages, blood sacrifice. High gods, undead diviners, hidden costs. Will the mortal witches finally triumph? Will the Immortal rule the world? Will the gods survive the serpent’s schemes? And what about that cute fluffy kitten? Will she ever have her heart’s desire? Tags: Fantasy, Action, Tragedy, Romance, Comedy, Adventure, Strategy, Magic

8 161Kathy With A K's Song
"Oh my darling, when you smile, it is like a song"-"Obviously," She started. There was a nervous shake in her voice that made me tilt my head in her hands. "Obviously you don't understand the agreement." She repeated after quickly composing herself. I rolled my eyes, but let her continue."Where you go, I go. Where I go, you go." She told me sternly. Her thumbs grazed my cheeks and heat rose on my skin where she touched. I couldn't tell if this was just Sophia being caring or if she was maybe feeling more. My brain told me that this was all a friendly gesture, but my body and it's stupid hormones were telling me that it was something more. And your brain can never really overcome true instincts. I moved closer towards her, shrinking the already limited space between us. This time it was Sophia's turn to blush which only made my smile grow larger. All I could think about was her lips meeting mine.(a new and improved skmw xx)
