Inheriting a Legacy and Traveling to Ancient Times

In her previous life, Zhao Qingyan grew up in an orphanage. She unexpectedly activated a pocket dimension and began hoarding supplies. After spending all her savings, an accident transported her to...

Chapter 842 Watching the Melon

Immediately afterwards, Baihu ate almost half of Huahua's cooked food before stopping.

Hua Hua wasn't angry. Seeing that Bai Hu really wasn't going to eat anymore, she ate the rest of the food.

Zhao Qinghe suddenly felt very full, but looking at the two furry creatures, she found them quite adorable.

Before Zhao Qinghe left,

She asked Hua Hua again if she wanted to go with her. Hua Hua shook her head and then deliberately looked at the white tiger's belly.

Zhao Qinghe's eyes widened. "Huahua, wow, it's only been a few days and you're already going to be a father."

Hua Hua actually grinned, much to everyone's surprise.

Instruct the guards not to stop Hua Hua and her husband whenever they return.

She also made sure to take good care of them and provide them with enough food before leaving with lingering concern.

The Zhao family mansion in the capital has been incredibly lively lately because there are so many children in the family.

Later, because the little ones were too naughty, they were sent to a village in the suburbs for a period of time.

The children were having a blast.

Climbing trees to steal birds' nests and wading into rivers to catch fish are not enough; sometimes, on a whim, the children even take over the job of watching over the melon patch.

The melons and watermelons in the field were ripe, and it was easier for them to eat them while keeping an eye on the field.

The head of the village had a lot of unspeakable suffering.

These are our ancestors. It's fine for children to play during the day. Having a few more people behind them will prevent any danger.

But it was the middle of the night, and seeing a group of children sleeping in a shack made me feel uneasy.

If a melon thief were to steal the melons and also steal and sell the little ones, he would truly be guilty beyond redemption.

That day, the head of the village, Zhao Da, came to visit.

He knelt down before Princess Yan Yue as soon as he entered, pleading, "Princess, please save me..."

After listening to Zhao Da's tearful account, Princess Yan Yue couldn't help but twitch her lips.

The children of the Zhao family are truly extraordinary.

Zhao Da's crying and pleading were indeed effective.

When they returned to the estate, several carriages followed behind them, taking Zhao Minggeng with them.

Zhao Minggeng found the children in the melon field.

Each person had half a watermelon in their hand and was eating it with a rice spoon in their other hand.

His face and body were covered in watermelon juice, and he was laughing without a care in the world. Not only that, his already not-so-fair skin looked like a black potato.

If it weren't for the fact that these little guys were dressed in nice clothes, Zhao Minggeng would have almost not recognized them.

"Third Grandfather..."

He was quite polite; he greeted Zhao Minggeng immediately upon spotting him.

They called out sweetly, but not a single one of them stood up.

I don't know if the watermelon in my hand was too heavy, because it weighed down my bottom.

The youngest one, with a silly grin, scooped out a piece of melon flesh and held it up, saying, "Third Grandpa, eat this."

Oh my, this is so sweet it made Zhao Minggeng happy!

He no longer cared whether the children were well-behaved or not.

She plopped down next to the child, took the spoon, and ate the melon in one gulp.

I wiped my mouth; it tasted strangely sweet.

He patted the melon closest to him, felt it was ripe, picked it off the vine, and with a quick chop, split it in half, revealing the red flesh inside.

The women in the Zhao household were waiting for their children to return home.

They craned their necks until sunset, but still didn't receive any news of their child returning home.

"Alright, everyone go back to your own courtyards."

Xiao San'er probably needs to take care of some trivial matters on the estate before she can come back.

"Didn't Zhao Da say the melons are ripe? Selling ripe melons brings in a considerable income every year."

Mrs. Huang was so overwhelmed by the sight of her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law that it hurt her eyes.

One by one, they were absent-minded.

When her old woman couldn't understand what was going on, she was just waiting for her own children to come back.

Why didn't I think of this earlier? Those little brats have been sent there for so long. I only started to panic when I heard that the kids were causing trouble.
