Chapter 442: Separation Again

"Be careful." Xiao Fu looked at this scene and ran towards Xiao Jiuyue with big strides.

"Dad!" Xiao Jiayuan shouted excitedly, and at the same time looked at Xiao Jiuyue worriedly: "Sister!"

Donggui and Huaqing, who were standing by, were about to rescue someone, but when they heard Xiao Jiayuan's call, they stopped immediately. Anyway, Xiao Fu's position allowed him to catch the young lady steadily.

A pair of strong arms steadily caught the falling Xiao Jiuyue. Xiao Fu's voice rang out, "Yu'er, how can you be distracted when walking on the mountain? Be careful on the road you walk on. What if you fall and get hurt?"

Xiao Fu made sure that Xiao Jiuyue was fine, so he looked up at Jin Wu: "Jin Wu, how do you take care of the young lady?"

"Master, it's all my fault!" Jin Wu responded with his head down.

Hua Qing had never seen Xiao Fu before, so he wasn't afraid. He stepped forward and said, "Master Xiao, if you hadn't suddenly appeared and called out to the young lady, she wouldn't have fallen down out of shock. How can you blame Jin Wu for this?"

"Besides, it was you, Master Xiao, who was there to take over, that’s why we didn’t go to rescue the young lady. Otherwise, we could have protected her and kept her safe!"

Hua Qing kept chattering, saying that they didn't take good care of the young lady, but she refused to admit it!

"I'm fine. It was my own carelessness. It has nothing to do with them." Xiao Jiuyue quickly spoke to smooth things over. After standing still, she looked up and saw Xiao Fu, and blurted out, "Dad, when did you get here? Why did you go up the mountain?"

The moment when Xiao Fu rushed towards her with worry and without hesitation made Xiao Jiuyue feel a deep worry. Perhaps, this is fatherly love?

At the same time, Xiao Jiuyue felt vaguely that the scene just now was a little familiar.

Every word Xiao Fu said was filled with worry.

"How can I feel at ease when you guys go up the mountain and never come back?" Xiao Fu was worried at first that Xiao Jiuyue, who had no memories, would be distant with him. Now, Xiao Fu felt that he was overthinking it.

"Just like when you were little, climbing trees like a man!" Xiao Fu looked at Xiao Jiuyue, his childhood appearance vaguely visible in his eyes. He said, "Remember when you fell from a tree as a child? Luckily, Dad caught you, otherwise, you would have been smashed into a pulp!"

Xiao Fu's words brought back a vague memory in Xiao Jiuyue's mind: a red figure falling from a tree.

"Daddy!" Xiao Jiayuan ran over and excitedly threw himself towards Xiao Fu, saying, "Dad, I, I've grown taller!" Xiao Jiayuan looked at Xiao Fu with sparkling eyes. He wanted to throw himself into his daddy's arms, but he was a little embarrassed.

"Jiayuan?" Xiao Fu looked at Xiao Jiayuan who was rushing towards him, hugged him in his arms, and patted his shoulder: "Jiayuan has grown up. Now he is almost as tall as your sister!"

"Dad, I even learned kung fu!" Xiao Jiayuan's shoulder was patted vigorously by Xiao Fu, but it didn't hurt at all. His young face was full of anticipation.

"So amazing?" Xiao Fu's praise made the smile on Xiao Jiayuan's face deepen.

"Dad, Jiayuan has learned Kung Fu really well. When we get home, let him teach you a set of boxing techniques that are truly not just fancy moves." Xiao Jiuyue praised from the side. If Xiao Jiayuan, who was praised by his father and sister, had a tail behind him, it would definitely be sticking up high.

"Good boy, you didn't let your father down." Xiao Fu slapped him on the shoulder. Looking at Xiao Jiayuan's tender face, he felt particularly good. After not seeing him for three years, the Xiao Jiayuan who had a toothache when he was changing teeth has grown up!

All the way back home, to the Xiao family’s main house, it was a real reunion.

After dinner, Xiao Fu talked about leaving for Xiangcheng tomorrow.

They had just met and were about to face separation. Xiao Jiayuan looked at Xiao Fu reluctantly, and Su Su's red eyes showed her reluctance.

Su Su told Xiao Fu that she wanted to go to Xiangcheng, but Xiao Fu didn't want to.

"Dad, I'll go with you." Xiao Jiuyue spoke directly.

Before Xiao Fu could refuse, Xiao Jiuyue said, "I had some ideas about changing the flow of water when I was working on the Jinjiang River embankment. However, I had no one to help me at that time, so everything was just wishful thinking. This time, I'm going with Dad, and I'm sure I can help him!"

"By the way, I also have medical skills." Xiao Jiuyue added.

"Dad, I can go too." Xiao Jiayuan said impatiently.

When Su Su heard this, she also said, "Then I'll go too!"

Xiao Fu looked at these three faces. These were the most important people in his life. He said silently, "Suniang, you and Jiayuan go back to Shengjing. If Yue'er leaves with me, I won't be at ease without you watching over Mother."

"Jiayuan, didn't you say before that you have grown up and that you have experience in growing crops in Fu'an Village? It's just right for you to go back to Shengjing to help your elder brother!" Xiao Fu made clear arrangements for the mother and son.

"Dad, sister, my medical skills are also very talented." Xiao Jiayuan looked at Xiao Jiuyue eagerly. He wanted to follow his father!

"I can ask Doctor Wang to go with me to Xiangcheng." Xiao Jiuyue smiled. She stood up and asked Doctor Wang directly, "Master, are you willing to go to Xiangcheng?"

Xiangcheng?

Doctor Xiao Wang paused, then nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course I am willing!" Last year, Xiangcheng was hit by a flood, and so many people were displaced and their loved ones died!

Doctor Wang wanted to go with his disciple Miao Hong at that time. His strength was not great, but he would save as many people as he could.

But Miao Hong was afraid of death and refused to go, so she couldn't go with him either.

This time, Doctor Wang would be more than willing to take advantage of the opportunity!

"Okay." After getting a positive answer from Doctor Xiao Wang, Xiao Jiuyue immediately made arrangements in an orderly manner. She just needed to take Hua Qing and Dong Gui to Xiangcheng.

Lian Xin and Luo Kui were both unwilling and asked, "Miss, can I follow you?"

The two girls looked at Xiao Jiuyue with tears in their eyes, as if they had been abandoned by others. Xiao Jiuyue helplessly comforted them, "We went to Xiangcheng this time to work, and we didn't rush like we are now."

"I'm not afraid of hardship."

Lianxin and Luokui said in unison: "Miss, we have always been the ones taking care of you. How could you be alone?"

"That's right, Miss. We all know what you like to eat and your habits. When you get to Xiangcheng, you'll still need someone to take care of you." Luo Kui said, not wanting to be left behind, "Miss, I know Kung Fu. Although I haven't learned it well enough, I'm not afraid of hardship when it comes to traveling."

Lianxin and Luokui were talking back and forth. Xiao Jiuyue said, "Lianxin, Luokui, you two should go back to Shengjing first. I have something important for you to do. If you follow me to Xiangcheng, you won't be able to handle these important tasks."

"What's the big deal?" Lianxin and Luokui asked in unison.

Xiao Jiuyue said, "I've been away from Shengjing for three years. I'm completely in the dark about everything in Shengjing. The Song family broke off their engagement, and Mu Yinqiu married into the Song family. She'll definitely find a chance to mock me. Go to Shengjing for me first and gather information. By the time I return, I'll be prepared."
