Chapter 73 The feeling of getting rich overnight

Mercado led them back to their bedrooms. Emma followed Su Rui into the room. Su Rui sat on the sofa solemnly, watching Emma wriggling her fingers and hesitating little eyes, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise, and said bluntly: "Little Emma, ​​you can ask whatever you want."

Emma shook her head anxiously, raised her hands and said decisively: "This is my sister's secret. Emma won't tell it if she doesn't ask. Sister, please believe me, I really won't tell it."

Seeing her anxiously swearing, being so sensible, and remembering how she carefully guarded the door just now, it feels so good to treat each other sincerely.

Su Rui gently pulled her to sit beside her, looked at her flattered and pitiful face, and suddenly wanted to tease her, her face gradually became serious.

Emma's whole back was stiff, showing nervous little eyes. She was like a frightened little rabbit. Seeing it, Su Rui couldn't help laughing out loud, and comforted: "Just kidding, don't be nervous."

Seeing her sitting slowly and relaxed, with a simple smile, Suri said sincerely: "Emma, ​​thank you."

Emma quickly waved her hands and said seriously: "Sister, you don't need to thank you. This is what Emma wants to do. Please don't blame Emma for concealing the fact of witchcraft, because my mother said that witchcraft will only bring me disaster. so……"

When she lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, Su Rui touched her head lightly and said with a smile: "It's okay, this is Emma's private matter, and what your mother said is not unreasonable and understandable."

"Really? Don't sister blame me?"

Seeing her excited gaze, Su Rui nodded with a smile, and suddenly remembered something, and asked seriously, "It was said in the ancient city that your mother is ill, can I ask what kind of illness your mother is suffering from?" ?”

When it came to this question, Emma looked melancholy and sighed softly: "Mom's heart problem started a long time ago, but it's getting worse now. Before going out, she asked me to go to the ancient castle to pray to the Oneiroi seat." Master La prayed and said it was her wish."

"Sister, do you know that for me, these Wusui tickets are my mother's hope and wish, and even more so—" At this point, Emma choked with tears, and then wiped it away, sincerely saying: "It's more of a family There is only money left. In order to treat my mother, my family was already poor, and now my family is even more destitute. The only remaining Wusui tickets I earned by selling my own bed. I didn’t expect that the price of white roses would increase in the end. When I was helpless and sad, it was you who helped me, and I am really grateful to you."

"Mom said that people should repay their kindness and not be ungrateful. This is the basic quality of a person. So in the future, as long as my sister has a word or needs Emma, ​​Emma will never shy away from her definition."

Her words made Su Rui both distressed and moved.

Su Rui had a bad premonition. If these dialogues appeared in the TV series, it was almost inseparable, and that person had already received a lunch box.

But these are all the bloody plots of TV dramas, so they can't be taken seriously.

Suri comforted herself, took Emma's hand and said seriously: "Emma, ​​is there anyone else in your family?"

Emma shook her head and said, "My father and elder brother passed away unfortunately when I was very young and went to work in the pond to make a living. Only my mother and I were left at home."

"Then your mother 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 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 and the others to protect me. Go home quickly tomorrow morning. When your mother is better, you can come 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 mother said—"

Before she finished speaking, Su Rui straightened her body and said seriously: "Emma, ​​my sister knows what you want, and you have already reported it. From now on, I will be equal to you. You don't owe me anything, you know?" ?”

Emma froze for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Su Rui breathed a sigh of relief, patted her little head, and said meaningfully: "Emma, ​​you have to remember that old age, sickness and death are the natural laws of life, remember that I am here." It's useless, but I'm a kind person with a good heart.

Emma was pure-minded, so she naturally didn't expect the deep meaning in her words. She was moved to tears by her words, and nodded heavily.

"Well, Emma will remember."

"So good, so cute." Suri smiled and pinched her cheek lightly, complimenting Emma with an embarrassed smile.

"Miss Su Rui, are you asleep?" The housekeeper knocked on the door three times.

The reason why Su Rui didn't sleep was because he knew that someone would come, but he didn't expect it to be the housekeeper. After being slightly startled, he was about to get up to open the door, but Emma stood up first, ran over and opened the door lightly.

The butler stepped into the door along her side, holding a classically carved mahogany box in both hands.

Mrs. West's orders?

When Su Rui guessed in confusion, the housekeeper gently placed the mahogany box on the tea table, and said respectfully: "Miss Su Rui, this is a thank you gift from Madam, she said it is important for a girl to have money around her."

I guess it was because I saw that I wanted to ask Eva Roy for even ten spike tickets, so I sent money here.

Su Rui is very sure that she is not a gold digger, nor is she a greedy person, but she really needs money, and she only has 24k of pure gold fingers in her pocket, feeling really flustered about being penniless.

Seeing her hesitating, the butler smiled and said, "Miss Su Rui, the master is not here, and Miss Windsor is the backbone of Lanshu City, so you deserve these."

Su Rui glanced at Emma, ​​thinking that she was too embarrassed to ask for it now, but she would have the cheek to make money if she had no money in the future. After thinking about it, she stopped talking and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you to Mrs. West for me, this is Su Rui's last needs."

The butler smiled and nodded, then backed out, closing the door behind him.

Su Rui opened the wooden box and looked at the piles of hundred-yuan tassel tickets inside, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"I'm finally not poor, and it feels so good to be rich."

During the conversation, Su Rui picked up a bundle of spike tickets, and took Emma's hand who was stunned.

Emma said in amazement: "Sister, this is [-] spikes of tickets, do you want to give it to me?"

"Yeah." Su Rui answered her simply and clearly, and lightly closed the wooden box, her words and deeds were natural and relaxed.

Emma felt her hands were heavy.

Su Rui knew that she was going to start talking about this and that again, so she quickly put the words in front of her and said, "Take it if you tell me, without you guarding outside the room, how can I solve the problem with peace of mind, and you don't need to , your mother needs it too, don't be a jerk, put it away quickly."

"Knock, Knock, Knock"

There were three more door knocks outside the door.

"Put it away quickly, and the money should not be exposed." Under Su Rui's urging, Emma quickly stuffed the spiked tickets into the sack and messenger bag, then glanced at Su Rui, and trotted over to open the door with her nodding.

Is it Yom this time, or Lilia, or Master Curry?

Or Wendy who came to grow hair for herself?

When Su Rui was guessing, the door opened slowly, and the person at the door caught her by surprise.

housekeeper?Back and forth, is it meal time?

But why is his look a little different?a bit deep...
