Xu Linyue, who transmigrated from the 21st century, crossed over with a heaven-defying spatial ability, possessing the body of a five-year-old farm girl. She originally thought of just accepting he...
Xu Wenwu said, "Grandpa and grandma, Die'er and I are in love with each other. I made a promise to her that after the test next year, I will marry her!"
The Xu family was all stunned. Zhang was the first to react. She smiled and said, "Good job, boy. You finally got it. I like Die'er very much. I fully support this marriage."
Wang nodded and said, "Yes, this girl is sweet-talking. She used to be very caring towards me and kept me company. She's a good girl, well-behaved and pretty. She's a perfect match for Wenwu in our family!"
Although the old man is very fond of his eldest grandson Xu Wenwu, Wendie is indeed a good child.
So she said, "Well, I think this girl is very good. Since you have already promised Wenwu, you can't let her down. After all, she is also a daughter of an official. Old woman, you have to make good arrangements for her!"
Wang smiled and said, "I know!"
Xu Wenwu said, "I want to ask the matchmaker to come over first to finalize this marriage. I can't let Die'er wait for me like this!"
Zhang said, "Wenwu is right. Since both our parents agree, I will choose an auspicious day to propose directly and finalize the marriage. This way, the girl will feel more at ease."
Xu Wenwu said: "It all depends on the arrangements of mother and grandmother!"
The whole family was overjoyed. The Xu family was going to have a happy event, how could they not be happy!
Qibao asked, "Grandma, why don't I see the other brothers?"
Wang said, "They said they'll be staying in the town house for the time being and won't be back until the day of rest."
Shippo nodded.
Finally, the food was served on the table. There was meat, shrimp and fish, and it was delicious.
Su Chenyu pulled Jing Chen to sit down without any hesitation and said, "Grandpa Xu, Grandma Xu, I was still missing the taste of the food cooked by the Xu family when I was outside! Now I can finally taste it!"
Wang smiled and said, "Okay, if you like, eat more. You and Jingchen can stay a little longer. Just go to the kitchen and ask for anything you want to eat. Just treat it like your own home. And Yefeng, you should sit down too. Don't stand all the time!"
Jing Chen made a look at Ye Feng, and Ye Feng clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, old lady!" After that, he pulled out a chair and sat down. To be honest, he also missed this, but he didn't express it usually.
Without saying anything, they started eating. They were really hungry and their chopsticks never stopped moving.
Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were heartbroken. They were both about the same age as their own children, so they couldn't help but feel an overwhelmed maternal love in their hearts.
While peeling the fish for them, he also told them to eat slowly and be careful of fish bones.
Among the few people, only Jingchen ate the most elegantly, but he also picked up his chopsticks quite quickly, but he looked a little different.
After dinner, the hunger in his stomach had disappeared, and Qibao asked, "Grandpa, did anything happen while we were away?"
The old man said, "No, it's still the same as before. There are just some tourists from other places asking about Wenwu, but they are all brushed off by the patrol team. However, the boy named Bai Zeyu sometimes comes to ask if Wenwu has returned."
After resting for a while, they were indeed a little tired, so they all went back to their rooms early to rest.
The next day, Qibao got up very early. Cui Cancan was just about to go out for a walk. When she saw Qibao, she greeted him with a smile.
Qibao said: "Cancan, I noticed that you seem to have lost some weight!"
Cui Cancan said happily, "Really? I've increased my exercise intake now, and I feel much more relaxed and refreshed. Now I feel uncomfortable if I don't run for a day, which has never happened before."
Qibao smiled and said, "Well, not bad. You're really much better now than when you first came to my house. Your personality is more cheerful too."
Cui Cancan touched the back of his head sheepishly and said, "I used to meet people who were sarcastic and mocking towards me. Since I came to Xujia Village, the uncles and aunts in the village have been very friendly to me and would chat with me. I feel like I have a different life. I like it very much."
Qibao smiled and said, "As long as you can change yourself, I haven't wasted my time on you."
Cui Cancan said gratefully, "Qibao, I also want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I would probably still be as timid and submissive as before, and people would look down on me. I've come to terms with it these days. Why should I force others to accept my bad self? It's not fair to others either."
Qibao also understood what she meant, and he looked at Cui Cancan with increasing respect. He didn't expect that in just over a month, she had changed so much. She was completely different from before, more confident and cheerful than before.
Cui Cancan smiled and said, "Qibao, I'm going to go for a run first!"
Qibao nodded, looked at her back as she ran away, and smiled slowly. She thought that people like her were the ones who deserved help the most!
Qibao walked all the way to the school gate. It was the time when students just entered the school. When the children saw Qibao, they greeted him enthusiastically.
Qibao responded to them one by one.
"Miss Qibao, why are you here?" When Mr. He's mother saw Qibao, she happily greeted her.
"Aunt He, I'm just taking a stroll and coming to see you and Master He!" Qibao said.
Mother He smiled and said, "Jie'er and I are doing well. I really like my current life. Looking at these cute and polite children every day makes me feel particularly happy!"
Qibao said, "Well, that's good. If you need anything, just tell us. Is there enough pens, ink, paper, and inkstone in the school?"
Mother He said, "It's enough. Uncle Xu sent us quite a bit before. We have everything we need. There are a lot of tourists in the village now, so I have to guard the school gate every morning. For the children's safety, I lock the school gate once all the students are here. We can't let outsiders disturb the children's studies."
Qibao nodded and said, "Aunt He is very thoughtful! You have worked so hard."
Mother He smiled and said, "What's the big deal? I'm old enough and can't sleep in the mornings, so I might as well find something to do."
"Qibao! Why are you here?" Xu Huaer saw Qibao and her face lit up as she ran towards him.
Qibao hadn't seen Xu Huaer for a while, so he smiled and said, "I'm just here for a stroll."
Xu Huaer said, "Qibao, I have good news for you. The handkerchief I embroidered actually sold. I'm so happy! My mother said that no matter how much the handkerchief sells for, it's all mine and she lets me keep it!"
Qibao smiled and said, "Congratulations, Sister Huaer!"
Xu Huaer smiled and said, "I can make money with my own ability, thanks to you and Aunt Ru's dedicated teaching. The other sisters and I are very grateful to you!"
Qibao said, "Why thank me? I just helped to mention it. You should thank Aunt Ru!"
Xu Huaer nodded and said, "Yes, Qibao, I know. I'm going to be late soon."
Qibao nodded. At this time, he could vaguely hear the children reading aloud.
