It's the morning of the first day of the new year.

Without waiting for Tong Huaqiong's family to wish her a happy new year, the villagers from the same village who worked with Tong Huaqiong flocked to Tong Huaqiong's home to wish their dear employer a happy new year.

Tong Huaqiong accepted them all with a smile.

Then the family members came to wish Tong Huaqiong a happy new year. According to custom, Tong Huaqiong gave each of the children a red envelope.

"Thank you grandma."

Maner and the others smiled sweetly, then ran out of the house and went to the backyard to wish Master Su a happy new year.

Not only did Xiaolong Maner and other children come to Master Su's house, but children from the private school also came from all over the country to pay New Year's greetings to Master Su.

In this era, teachers were equivalent to parents, and many students had red faces from the cold while running on the mountain roads.

Master Su himself was not a person who cared about worldly things. He usually ate at Tong Huaqiong's house, and he did not prepare anything except wine and drinks during the New Year.

Taking this into consideration, Tong Huaqiong asked the maids and servants to prepare tea, fruits and pastries and bring them to Master Su's place to warm up the children who came to pay New Year's greetings.

It is lively when there are many children, and the noise can be heard from the backyard to the front yard.

Tong Huaqiong and Hong were talking in the house when they could only hear some chattering in the backyard.

Hong said with envy, "Children are so lively."

"Boss, isn't it a coincidence that just when we carried over the tea, fruit and cakes we prepared, we saw that the children had already eaten them. It must be that Miss Cousin had the same idea as us, and she prepared it for Master Su in advance."

Xiaoxi and Su Qing came in with a smile and interrupted the conversation. Tong Huaqiong was relieved, otherwise she really didn't know how to comfort Mrs. Hong. It was Mrs. Hong's regret that she didn't have children. Tong Huaqiong couldn't say that not having children would make her quieter and she could live a few more years.

The cousin Xiaoxi was referring to was naturally Tong Pandidi.

Su Qing said, "There was a kid who had just started school at the end of the year. He didn't know the situation, so he asked my cousin to call me "teacher's wife", which made my cousin blush."

Tong Huaqiong smiled and said, "It's possible for children to make mistakes."

Su Qing thought that although Master Su had denied the rumor, she couldn't suppress her joy in her eyes and brows.

After the two maids left, Tong Huaqiong asked Hong, "I was busy with the weaving workshop this year, and you spent a lot of time with Pan Di. Why is Master Su still so enthusiastic about Pan Di?"

"More eager than before, even telling Pan Di clearly."

Hong couldn't keep it to himself once he brought up the subject.

Tong Huaqiong leaned sideways and asked, "What's Pandi's reaction?"

Mrs. Hong said, "I have observed that Pandi is not as resistant as before, and even praised Master Su as a good man in front of me. When you went to the capital before the New Year, one night Huaer had a fever, and the doctor went to Heilongtan. Pandi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Master Su heard the noise, held Huaer in his arms, borrowed Qian's carriage and rushed to the town clinic. He was in a hurry and didn't wear thick clothes. He was frozen all night, and Hua recovered, but he collapsed."

"Pandi seems to be very touched."

This was the first time Tong Huaqiong heard about this.

Master Su is indeed a very good person.

I treat all flowers as if they were my own children.

The key is that Master Su is not very old and looks good, and he is quite a match for Tong Panddi.

If Tong Pandi really gets married to Master Su, Tong Huaqiong will support it.

The failure of Tong Pandi’s first marriage doesn’t mean she can’t pursue her next soulmate.

Speaking of Tong Pandi, Tong Pandi came in.

Tong Huaqiong asked Tong Pandi directly: "Master Su has made it clear to you, what do you think?"

Tong Pandi's face turned red.

Tong Huaqiong tried to guess Tong Pandi's thoughts, and it seemed that her feelings for Master Su were also warming.

Mrs. Hong advised, "Master Su is a good man, thoughtful, gentle, impeccable in both character and appearance, and more importantly, he is good to you and Hua'er. Brother Pan, you can really consider marrying Master Su."

"Hua'er Duo'er will eventually grow up, get married and start her own family. It will be boring for you to be alone by then. It's better to marry according to your heart while you are still young."

Tong Pandi lowered his head and said nothing.

Hong said, "Do you feel that you are not worthy of Master Su after your divorce? You must not have such thoughts. There are no villages or towns where you can remarry."

According to Mrs. Hong, since Tong Pandidi and Master Su are interested in each other, they should get married and make her ex-husband's family angry to death.

Tong Pandi said, "I have a good impression of Master Su... When I divorced, I swore that I would never marry again. Now I want to marry again. Isn't that a slap in my face?"

Tong Huaqiong and Hong looked at each other.

How can a person maintain the same idea for his whole life?

Tong Huaqiong said, "Whether you marry or not, you are still you. You have the right to accept Master Su, and you also have the right to reject her. The prerequisite is that your true inner thoughts prompt you to make a decision, not based on the relationship with Wu Musheng, and certainly not to confine yourself to some oath. You can't be afraid to marry again because your last marriage failed, and of course you can't choose to marry just to prove that you can marry better."

“Everything is based on your happiness.”

"Whether you marry Master Su again or someone else, you are no longer the Tong Pandi of the past, but the Tong Pandi who can challenge the other party. No one can guess what will happen in the future. What's important is that you have the confidence to protect yourself and your two daughters in any situation."

Tong Pandi pondered Tong Huaqiong's words carefully.

During the two years of her contact with Master Su, he was good to her and her daughter. In addition, Master Su was well-educated, spoke and acted in a gentle and appropriate manner, so she was moved.

The reason why she hesitated was that, firstly, she was worried that if she married Master Su while divorced, Master Su would be exposed to the gossip of outsiders; secondly, she was afraid that she would repeat her fate with Wu Musheng.

Her aunt's words made her suddenly realize that it was important to take her own happiness as the starting point and enjoy the present moment and to have the confidence to protect herself and her two daughters.

Tong Pandi said, "Aunt, Aunt Hong, I understand."

At this time, Master Su was in the room questioning students who came to pay New Year's greetings about their studies.

A group of children wailed that they came to celebrate the New Year, not to take exams.

"Master Su, let me tell you a secret. My grandmother and my mother are discussing about letting my cousin be your mistress." The person who said this was a student from Moon Bay.

During the New Year's Eve dinner, his family mentioned that he would come to pay New Year's greetings to Master Su the next day. His grandmother and mother lamented that Master Su had no one who cared about him and that he would be too lonely living alone in Qinghe Bay, so they wanted to introduce the child's cousin to Master Su.

Master Su: “…”

"Thank your mother and your grandmother for me. This master does not need to arrange a marriage."

This was not the first time that Master Su had refused a marriage proposal.

After he arrived at Qinghewan to teach, people in the surrounding area inevitably became curious about him. When they learned that the teacher with great knowledge, good character, good looks and youthful appearance had no companion, the area around Qinghewan was in an uproar.

Their children were sent to private schools, and they were qualified to participate in Master Su's life events.

Everyone was mainly worried that Master Su, who was single and could feed the whole family, might be driven away by the stupid students. Where would they find such a good master? They had to find a wife for Master Su, preferably one from Qinghewan, so that Master Su could take root in Qinghewan.

So every now and then someone would come to propose marriage to Master Su, but Master Su would refuse again and again with a sullen face.

Now Master Su didn't dare to look the aunties and grannies on the street in the eye. If he looked at them, they would pull him to marry them, as if he had been taken into the Spider Cave.
