My Princess Holds Superpowers
Chapter 378 - Chapter 378 378 its not far to the capital city now

Chapter 378: 378, it’s not far to the capital city now. Chapter 378: 378, it’s not far to the capital city now. If the family could only afford to educate one child, Ye Wenyu wouldn’t have had any complaints.

But while the eldest branch managed to send both their sons to study fairly, his parents had always only thought about having him earn money so that Wenxuan could have enough capital.

Especially since Wenxuan had gone to school, their mother always fussed over him with such warmth, but when facing him, she would just tell him to work hard so that when Wenxuan grew up and became an official, he would also take care of his good-for-nothing older brother.

Ha!

No one knew that every time he heard these words, Ye Wenyu would feel a piercing pain in his heart.

He had hands and feet, he didn’t need anyone’s support, he could work, but he didn’t want to become the tool his mother spoke of, to earn money for Wenxuan’s future.

They once were very poor, yet he felt full of drive; now that they had money, he felt as if life had lost its meaning.

Ye Wenyu stepped out of his room and saw Ye Qinghua and Ye Qingzhi sitting together in the courtyard, dividing items from a wooden chest.

“This one looks good, I want this bracelet, shiny and pretty…”

“Then I’ll take this necklace, you’re not allowed to fight me for it…”

Having left the second branch, Ye Qingzhi had a brilliant smile on her face, and her cheeks had grown a bit fuller over time, no longer looking as skinny as before, as if she had lost her shape.

Ye Wenyu now finally understood, the feelings Ye Qingzhi once had.

In fact, everyone in the family knew that Qingzhi was the one who had been neglected, but since everyone was used to it, no one ever intentionally paid attention to it.

Now, Qingzhi was being raised under grandmother’s name, and the one who was neglected had become himself. Ye Wenyu truly understood the feelings of being neglected!

At the same time, Ye Jiu once again woke up in Sikong Mo’s embrace, just in time to hear Si Nan say, “Master, the capital city isn’t far ahead.”

“Ah? We’ve reached the capital city?” Ye Jiu sat up with a start from Sikong Mo’s arms.

“Not yet, there’s still some distance to cover, but we should be able to arrive before nightfall,” Sikong Mo replied, soothing the just-awakened Ye Jiu with one hand.

“So… that means, I’ll be able to see my Fourth Brother soon?” A smile appeared on Ye Jiu’s face.

A couple days earlier, Sikong Mo had said that they had news of her Fourth Brother, only that he had encountered some troubles in the capital city, but fortunately, there was no danger to his life.

She had wanted to ask for more details, but Sikong Mo simply wouldn’t tell her, only saying that she should go see for herself once they were in the capital city.

Ye Jiu thought, as long as there was no danger to life, other issues weren’t that big of a problem.

Compared to the excitement on Ye Jiu’s face, Sikong Mo had an expressionless face, just nodding slightly, “Mhm.”

Ye Jiu didn’t notice the seriousness on Sikong Mo’s face, otherwise she surely wouldn’t have laughed so heartily and carefree.

“Are you hungry? Want to eat something before we continue?” Sikong Mo looked down at Ye Jiu in his arms and suddenly asked.

“Mhm.” Ye Jiu nodded, rubbing her sleepy eyes, “I am a bit hungry.”

Sikong Mo didn’t even have to speak, he just gave Si Nan a look, and Si Nan immediately understood, “Let’s stop ahead to eat.”

Then, everyone took their positions, each person’s actions clear and disciplined.

While sitting and waiting to eat and drink, Ye Jiu watched Si Nan use a flint to start a fire, which took several attempts to ignite, and she remembered she had something useful in her space!
