Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All-Chapter 241 - 203: Three Years Later (Part 3)
"Woof woof~" The small black dog reminded the little master, who was staring in a daze, that it was getting late and time to prepare to go home!
"Wait, I’m looking for something." Xiaomi rummaged around for a while and finally found only two fresh lotus leaves, as these were the only things that wouldn’t raise suspicion.
After waiting a little longer, the temperature in the incubator became suitable, and the little peacocks’ feathers quickly dried. Though still ugly, they were fluffy.
Adorably ugly.
Seven peacock eggs, seven little peacocks, simply perfect!
Xiaomi carefully placed the little peacocks on the lotus leaves, afraid they might try to run away. She also specially used a small bowl to hold some Spiritual Spring water and hugged it in her arms.
The allure of the Spiritual Spring water was indeed strong. The little peacocks, who tried their best to hide, started drinking water obediently at the sight of it and didn’t struggle anymore.
Xiaomi didn’t dare put them down. Although it was a bit much and very inconvenient, she quickly held a few of the little peacocks in her arms and then put the incubator back into space.
There were also quail eggs, pigeon eggs, and ostrich eggs in the space, but there was no time now. If she waited any longer, the temperature would drop, and it would be hard to raise them once hatched.
Besides, hatching too many at once and bringing back too many unfamiliar poultry would be too conspicuous.
Xiaomi always believed in the saying "the bird that pokes its head out gets shot." It was fine since the entire Fu’an Village stood out together, and they never refused to share seeds with others, so everyone had positive reviews.
But things like peacocks and ostriches were indeed unusual; having just one was enough, too many would not be good.
She checked the surroundings to ensure nothing was left behind, then gave the small black dog’s butt a pat.
"Little Black, go back and call Dad or Big Brother to come help. I can’t carry all these little peacocks back by myself."
She was already struggling just holding them, unable to see the road beneath her feet, let alone climb mountains with such a distance ahead.
"Woof woof~" The small black dog barked a few times at Xiaomi, as if agreeing, then ran off without looking back.
Xiaomi also wanted to follow. Seeing this, Xiaomi quickly said, "Xiaomi, wait, stay with me, don’t run off."
Xiaomi circled around and indeed returned to Xiaomi’s side, lazily licking its paws and washing its face.
The distance from here to Fu’an Village was quite far, with two mountains in between. Adding the time spent waiting for the peacocks to hatch and dry their feathers, it added up to almost an hour, or two hours.
By now, the sun was already setting.
Xiaomi sighed deeply and found a place to sit and wait.
This was the first time she sent the small black dog back to find someone. She didn’t doubt the small black dog’s abilities, just worried her family might get scared, thinking something happened to her.
And Xiaomi’s concerns were not unwarranted.
As Jiang Hu mentioned, Wei Ziang started going to school in town after he turned seven last year. After the New Year next year, Jiang Wei would have to do the same.
Just like before with Jiang Yu and Liu Hai, Jiang Hu would take them to school when delivering vegetables to town in the morning, and they’d walk home by themselves after school. Only when it rained, would they be picked up.
Wei Ziang returned home at about the usual time, turned around the front and back yards, and couldn’t find anyone.
"Ziang Ge, don’t bother looking. My sister went to the mountains again."
Jiang Wei was sitting under the eaves peeling peanuts. The peanuts had been dried and were being shelled for storage, taking up less space.
Ziang Ge had walked past him twice without paying attention, so he had no choice but to speak up.
Wei Ziang paused his hand that was about to knock, turned around, and came to Jiang Wei’s side, grabbed a stool, and started peeling peanuts with him: "How come she’s so late today? Did she leave late?"
Ever since they were granted permission, Xiaomi had been going to the mountains every few days, and everyone had gotten used to it.
Besides, with no sign of Little Black or Little Mi at home, knowing they were with her, no one worried.
"It’s not too late, she should be back soon."
Just as they were speaking, Jiang Hu’s Second Aunt came carrying a hoe: "Ziang is back, Wei’er, where’s your sister? Did she go to the mountains again?"
The place where Xiaomi went to the mountains and where Jiang Hu and the others worked was not in the same direction, so Jiang Hu’s Second Aunt didn’t know.
Jiang Wei nodded honestly, "Hmm, she went to the mountains, she should be..."
"Woof woof~"
"...Look, she’s back."
The woofing sound was unmistakably from their Little Black.
But before everyone could be at ease, they saw Little Black rushing into the courtyard like the wind, barking while circling around Jiang Hu, even biting his pant legs and pulling him out.
"What’s wrong with Little Black? Where’s Xiaomi?"
Wei Ziang’s expression changed immediately. He jumped up, knocking over the basket of peanuts, scattering them all over the ground.
But no one had time to care, especially Wei Ziang: "Uncle, Little Black must be taking us to find Xiaomi. Little Black, lead the way!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Little Black ran out again, and Wei Ziang followed without thinking.
Jiang Hu was stunned for a moment before reacting, his face also changed: "Second Aunt, you stay home and watch over the kids, Ziang and I will go out and take a look!"
He initially wanted Ziang to stay home too, but by that time he was already out the door. Not daring to delay, Jiang Hu also rushed out, hastily chasing after them.
