Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All
Chapter 122: Guests from Town
The three siblings prepared to go back only by the time of Si.
Just as they turned around, Xiaomi saw something moving in the distance and looked intently.
"Huh? Why is there a carriage entering the village?" đłđđ˛đđ¨đđŻđđđ§đđš.đ°đźđ
She looked more closely and was even more surprised.
"Why is Dadâs ox cart following behind the carriage?"
Perhaps due to the Spiritual Spring water, Xiaomi had excellent eyesight, and the rest of the family wasnât far behind. Xiaoxue also saw it.
The two sisters frowned simultaneously, because that carriage had already passed through Fuâan Village and was heading towards them.
"Xiaomi, are those people coming to our house?"
Jiang Xiaoxue pulled Xiaomiâs sleeve a little uneasily.
Although she was the older sister, because she often heard others say that her younger sister was a Little Lucky Star, capable of bringing good fortune to the whole family and even the whole village, she instinctively felt her sister was more capable than herself.
"They should be." After all, there was only their family behind the village.
"Tiedan, Xiaohui, letâs go, letâs go home."
Xiaomi raised her voice and shouted, and Tiedan and Xiaohui, who were still playing wildly, quickly stopped. Seeing the two sistersâ unusual expressions, they hurriedly ran over.
Without much explanation, the three siblings quickly ran home. In just a few moments, the carriage was almost at the doorstep.
And since the ox cart was blocked behind, they couldnât see their father.
"Second Sister, go call Mom."
Xiaomi casually put down the bamboo basket and ran to the courtyard gate.
Jiang Xiaoxue was a bit nervous. In her impression, only wealthy families could afford a carriage, and this one looked very expensive.
However, after Xiaomi called her, Xiaoxue still nodded and went into the house to call their mother, forgetting to put down the basket of chrysanthemums.
Before long, with a soft command from the driver, the carriage stopped outside the courtyard. Just as Xiaomi was about to shout to ask what they were doing, the carriage curtain was lifted, and Jiang Huâs head popped out.
He looked drowsy.
"Dad!" Xiaomi shouted loudly.
Jiang Hu instantly woke up, shook his head vigorously, and then jumped off the carriage: "Xiaomi, where are your mother and second sister?"
Just as he finished speaking, their mother, pulling Xiaoxue, appeared at the main room door, which was just a large room divided into several small sections.
"Brother Hu, whatâs this?" The mother gestured towards the carriage behind Jiang Hu, somewhat puzzled.
At this moment, a servant-like person came out of the carriage, first helping an elderly man off, and then assisting a half-grown boy.
Xiaomi couldnât help but take a few more glances.
Nothing else; it was just that the boy looked about seven or eight years old, but was skinny, with pale skin and unnaturally rosy cheeks.
It was obviously a hot day, yet he was wearing several layers of clothes inside and out, almost as if it were winter, and he wasnât sweating at all.
Probably due to lack of rest, Jiang Huâs response was a bit sluggish.
"Ah, look at my mind. Second Sister, this is Master Liu from the town, a family relative of Shopkeeper Liu. Master Liuâs son does business in the county, and this is Master Liuâs grandson."
After the introduction, Jiang Hu also introduced their mother and others to Master Liu.
The elderly man, holding a cane, walked with vigor, much stronger than his little grandson.
"Haha, so this is the Little Lucky Star. Thanks to you, my grandsonâs health has improved a lot."
Xiaomi was surprised. This sickly appearance was already an improvement?
But Xiaomi didnât show it, pretending not to know, she looked up and showed a pure smile: "Hello, Grandpa Liu."
"Good, good, good." Master Liu appeared very happy, nodding repeatedly in excitement: "No wonder sheâs the famous Little Lucky Star, so cute."
The servant continuously supported the young master Liu, and Jiang Hu glanced at him worriedly a few times. Seeing that he wasnât in much trouble, he took a few steps forward and picked up Xiaomi.
As he led Master Liu into the courtyard, he didnât forget to introduce.
"Second Sister, Shopkeeper Liu said that young master Liu has been eating our familyâs food these past few months, and his appetite and health have both improved a lot. Today, they came specifically to visit our home."
Xiaomi, lying on her fatherâs shoulder, looked at the young master with bright eyes: "Brother, are you sick?"
The boy was startled for a moment, obviously not expecting Xiaomi to greet him.
Xiaomiâs round little face, with big, bright eyes, looked adorable.
Tormented by illness, Liu Ze couldnât help but show a slight smile: "Yes, my health is not very good."
Xiaomi looked regretful: "What a pity. When youâre sick, you have to drink bitter medicine and canât eat delicious food."
In winter, Second Sister often used this tactic to scare Tiedan from playing in the water.
The boyâs eyes curved slightly: "Everything from Xiaomiâs family is very delicious."
Just now, Uncle Jiang called her Xiaomi, he heard it.
Xiaomiâs face broke into a wide smile instantly: "Of course, everything from my family is delicious."
In just a few exchanges, everyone had reached under the eaves and were listening to Xiaomi and the young master Liuâs conversation.
Tiedan, who was holding onto Xiaohuiâs neck, also heard this, and he finally couldnât hold back.
"Sister is lying, todayâs buns are not tasty!"
Saying this, he ran to Jiang Hu, tugged at his pants, and looked up.
"Dad, everything sister cooked today is tasty, but the buns werenât good, Second Sister and Momâs tongues have gone bad!"
Dad isnât a girl, he must be different from the sisters!
Jiang Hu was shocked: "Second Sister?"
Second Sister smiled helplessly, how could she explain this with so many people around?
Xiaoxue, however, earnestly patted Tiedan: "Xiaomiâs first time cooking, itâs definitely delicious!"
That serious expression immediately let Jiang Hu and Master Liu know what was going on.
Tiedanâs lips pouted, feeling like he was about to cry the next moment.
Jiang Hu hurriedly picked up Tiedan too: "Itâs okay, itâs okay, Tiedan. Everyone has different tastes, itâs normal for some to like and some not to."
Tiedan sniffed, but fortunately didnât cry: "Really?"
Does that mean that although sisterâs buns are tasty, itâs normal that he doesnât like them because he finds them unpleasant?
Jiang Hu quickly nodded: "Yes, thatâs right. For example, no matter who makes crown daisy, both you and Second Sister donât like it, right?"
Tiedan nodded, realizing that it wasnât the sistersâ tongues that were broken, nor was his tongue broken.
After placating his son, Jiang Hu awkwardly looked at Master Liu: "Apologies for the embarrassment, Master Liu, the kids are young and donât understand much."
Master Liu waved his hand repeatedly: "Itâs okay, itâs okay, the kids are very cute. By the way, I heard you also have an eldest child who is studying in town?"
Jiang Hu nodded: "Yes, heâll only be back in the afternoon."
Putting down the two children in his arms, Jiang Hu went inside to get some stools for them to sit on for a while.
Second Sister went to the kitchen to boil water, thinking the boyâs health wasnât great and not knowing if there were any dietary restrictions, so she just boiled plain water.
