The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 464 - 433: Has Someone Caught Her Heart?
Half an hour later, a rather large group poured out of the Wei Family Mansion.
Yuan Bao once went fishing outside Yunyang City, and at that time, they even tried to see how much hot water it took to break the ice layer.
Although many years have passed since that incident, the memory remains vivid.
This time, upon hearing that Yuan Bao was going again, the ladies of the Wei Family were all excited. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Originally, Yuan Bao just wanted to take her two younger brothers and a few familiar people to the river to catch a few fish, have some grilled fish, and perhaps host an all-fish feast in the evening.
Now, practically all the ladies and kids of the Wei Family who were at home have ventured out.
With such a large family accompanying them, alongside servants and guards, it’s truly a grand procession that would make anyone unaware think something monumental was happening.
The Wei Family couldn’t possibly explain to the townsfolk they passed, resulting in more and more people joining them, leaving the city and heading straight to the riverbank.
Now, this is truly delightful!
The fellow townspeople, seeing the Wei Family heading to the river to fish, instantly recalled Yuan Bao’s impressive feat from back then.
It’s said that once the ice was broken, the fish in the river jumped out on their own.
"Let’s go, let’s go, hurry up, let’s get some tools too!"
"Fishing, fishing!"
"Let’s catch some of Princess Jiafu’s good fortune!"
The townspeople dispersed, but only to gather more fervently later.
Thankfully, the ice on the river was thick enough; otherwise, Yuan Bao would truly be worried about the crowd causing the ice to collapse.
"Come on, come on, let’s get the fire going!"
The Eldest Princess gave her orders directly.
The accompanying guards and servants quickly prepared the firewood and lit it.
Soon enough, many bonfires were ablaze along the riverbank, bringing much warmth and energy to the cold winter day.
Meanwhile, on the river, Yuan Bao and Mei Jiu personally took action, leading the group to break the ice.
The two of them weren’t employing any advanced skills, they were purely having fun.
After all, this trip was all about enjoyment.
If it were only about catching fish to eat, there wouldn’t be a need to mobilize such a grand outing.
While Yuan Bao was busy, the children from the Wei Family also joined in on the fun, choosing a spot and starting to dig holes.
Of course, compared to Yuan Bao and Mei Jiu’s speed, the children were much slower.
"Auntie, we’re going to play too!"
Seeing the kids playing, Mrs. Wei Shen and Mrs. Wei Yun were also intrigued.
The joy of getting hands-on was something they hadn’t relished in a long time.
"Go on, go on!"
The Eldest Princess naturally wouldn’t refuse Mrs. Wei Shen and others their desire, although fewer people were left to chat with her, the sight before her was enough to lift her spirits.
"Jiaojiao, I’m here to help too!"
Seeing her mother personally go to the ice to dig holes, Wei Qiqi didn’t bother maintaining her noble lady demeanor, quickly slipped to Yuan Bao’s side.
"Qiqi, can you do it?"
Yuan Bao laughed when she saw Wei Qiqi coming over.
Back then, she even encouraged Wei Qiqi to practice martial arts, but she couldn’t stick with it.
Upon hearing Yuan Bao’s words, Wei Qiqi snorted and said, "Little Jiaojiao, look down on me? Humph, I’ll show you that I’m quite capable too!"
So, Wei Qiqi personally joined in, wielding the pickaxe.
After a dozen swings, Wei Qiqi gave up.
Her tender hands had already developed blisters.
"Ouch, Jiaojiao, my hands hurt!"
"They’re burning!"
Although the blisters weren’t broken, Wei Qiqi was in real pain, looking tearfully at Yuan Bao.
"Help me treat them!"
Wei Qiqi knew about Yuan Bao’s miraculous methods, although she didn’t know those methods relied on Incense Fire Wishing Power.
Nevertheless, in Wei Qiqi’s heart, she had full trust in her former little sister, now her auntie.
And that was a form of faith.
Wei Qiqi had also contributed to Yuan Bao’s Incense Fire Wishing Power.
With the mindset of taking from the people and using for the people, Yuan Bao found a little ointment.
"Here, apply it, it will heal quickly!"
For such minor injuries and pains, Yuan Bao wouldn’t use too much Incense Fire Wishing Power, just a little. This not only relieved Wei Qiqi’s pain but also taught her a lesson she wouldn’t forget too soon.
