(The female lead is purely a young child, and all her knowledge and understanding of the future come from that long dream.)
Six-year-old Yi Rongkun had a very, very long dream. In the dream, ...
Chapter 0090: Just treat it as your own place (sharing the era and life with the interstellar people
Yi Rongying looked at the aunt who suddenly came to recognize her as a relative with disbelief in her eyes.
The night before yesterday she was still calling her Sister Ran, but now when they meet she treats her as an elder.
"you……"
After a brief silence, Yi Rongying couldn't help but whisper, "Are you really my aunt?"
"yes."
Ran Qiaojun smiled, "Come here, Rongying. Auntie has prepared a gift for you. Do you like it?"
"And Rong Kun's little sister's."
As she spoke, she opened another larger bag, took out a few floral dresses from it, and tried them on the two sisters.
"Yeah, it really fits. Rongying, do you want to come inside and change into it so I can see it?"
“What are you spending this money on?”
When Liu Guoxiang entered the main room from the kitchen, he saw her holding a few skirts and gesturing on her two daughters. "We know why you came to my house."
"How can I let you spend this money?"
"Sister, it's normal for me, as an aunt, to buy gifts for my niece."
Ran Qiaojun smiled and said, "You can't meet your relatives for the first time without bringing anything, right?"
"Okay, let her do it."
Yi Zhongxiang said to his wife, "Bring the noodles over when they're ready. Don't let her aunt go hungry."
"Sister, come and try my cooking skills."
Liu Guoxiang turned back to the kitchen, took the noodles out of the pot and brought them to Ran Qiaojun.
“It smells so good.”
Ran Qiaojun quickly tucked her skirt into the arms of Yi Rongying and her sister, stood up and took the bowl of noodles. The fragrance of the noodles and green onions filled her nose, and she couldn't help but sigh.
He swallowed his saliva in a very unpresentable manner: "Sister, your cooking skills are better than I thought."
"Eat it if you like it."
Liu Guoxiang also knew that since they had recognized each other as relatives, they could not let outsiders see that there was anything wrong with their relationship.
So she smiled and said, "Stay at home for a few more days, and I'll cook some of my specialties for you to try."
"Thank you, sis! I'll be more than welcome then."
Ran Qiaojun smiled happily and couldn't wait to start eating.
The noodles tasted really good, and Ran Qiaojun squinted her eyes with happiness while eating.
He also sighed: "This is the taste of home, so good."
Liu Guoxiang and Yi Zhongxiang sat aside, watching Ran Qiaojun eat noodles quietly.
After finishing her meal, Ran Qiaojun stood up to wash the dishes, but Liu Guoxiang stopped her: "Sit down, sit down, let the children wash one bowl each."
As she spoke, she looked at her second daughter and had no choice but to stand up and take the bowl from her newly recognized aunt: "Aunt, I'll wash it."
"this……"
Ran Qiaojun smiled awkwardly, "Sister, brother-in-law, don't be so polite to me in the future."
Yi Zhongxiang said with a smile: "You just came back, so I won't be polite to you from now on."
"Sister, how long do you plan to stay this time?"
Liu Guoxiang asked this question only after seeing the child take the dishes to the kitchen to wash them.
Although I know that she is going to live in my house, as a relative, it is normal to ask this question.
"Sister, I finally found you, you won't stop me from living with you, right?"
Ran Qiaojun looked at Liu Guoxiang with tears in her eyes, as if she had done something unforgivable, her eyes full of accusations.
"Haha, how come?"
Liu Guoxiang smiled awkwardly, "It's not that the place at home is too small, I'm afraid you won't be able to get used to it."
"I'm so happy you can stay here. Why wouldn't I let you stay?"
"We sisters finally got to know each other, and I still have a lot of things I want to ask you."
"That's great, thank you, sis."
Ran Qiaojun smiled brightly when she heard this. "I'm so happy that you and your brother-in-law can take me and cousin Mengchen in."
"From now on, I have a family. I don't have to worry about others laughing at us for being orphans."
At this point, she looked at Yi Zhongxiang awkwardly: "I just have to inconvenience my brother-in-law for a while. When Sister Mengchen comes back, we will find a bigger place to build a house."
"Build the house big enough to ensure everyone in the family has a room and there are still two rooms left for guests to entertain guests."
"Why build such a big house?"
Liu Guoxiang was used to being concerned about money, "How much will that cost?"
"Don't worry, sister. Although sister Mengchen and I have been searching for you all these years, we haven't done nothing."
"We both have regular jobs, receive food every month, have a stable income, and have a lot of receipts. Building a bigger house is no problem at all."
Just kidding, the higher-ups have already given instructions to prepare a big house for the mission target.
How can we let the heroes of our Dragon Country live in such a dangerous house?
The specific location where it will be built has not yet been determined.
It depends on how the surveying and mapping personnel and engineers sent by the higher-ups are arranged.
When Yi Zhongxiang and his wife heard her say this, they were still making eye contact with them, guessing that this might be an arrangement from above.
So she pursed her lips and said nothing more.
In the kitchen, Yi Rongying heard that her "aunt" and her family would help renovate the house, so that everyone in the family would have their own room.
My heart was burning with hope, and I was looking forward to Aunt Mengchen coming back soon.
In this way, she and her sister can have their own little world and no longer have to squeeze in the same room with their parents.
By then, I will be able to prepare a desk in my room and write and read at any time.
Thinking of this, Yi Rongying couldn't help but speed up her dishwashing movements.
Ran Qiaojun took in the expressions of Liu Guoxiang and his wife, and seeing that they had reacted, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as they hinder me from carrying out my mission, it will be fine. Once the house is built, it will be convenient for the people assigned by the superiors to say something to the mission target.
By then, she and Pei Mengchen would be able to complete their tasks more easily.
Thinking of this, Ran Qiaojun looked at Liu Guoxiang and his wife with a more intimate look.
"Brother-in-law, when the house is built, you and your sister will have more space to live in. You don't have to squeeze into such a dark little room."
Upon hearing this, Liu Guoxiang smiled and said nothing.
I knew she was conveying the arrangements made by her superiors for her family.
Just be obedient and do as you are told. There is no need to insist on living a hard life.
But I couldn't help but murmur in my heart, this girl is really more and more likable the more I look at her. Not only is she good-looking, but she can also talk. It would be great if she was really my biological sister.
As for building the house, let’s talk about it after it is actually built.
Yi Zhongxiang had the same idea, so he followed Ran Qiaojun's words and said, "Yes, when the house is built, our family can live comfortably."
Ran Qiaojun heard this, and a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes, but she still pretended to be well-behaved: "Yes."
"By the way, when will your sister Mengchen come back?"
Liu Guoxiang knew that Pei Mengchen was the one who was in charge of this matter. No matter how cute this girl was, he was only doing this for the sake of his own daughter.
"I should be back in two days."
Ran Qiaojun smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister. Sister Mengchen is a very good person. She also wants to find you as soon as possible."
"You didn't come back with me because you really had something important to do today."
"I know."
Liu Guoxiang acted like a caring sister. "You guys have your own work to do, and when you're done, come home. My home is your home, so don't feel constrained."
"Sister, you are so kind. I will tell Sister Mengchen when I see her."
For a moment, the main room was filled with laughter, as if a family was really chatting.
On the other side, people from several other branches of the Yi family gathered at Yi Zhongqi's house to discuss the sudden plan by their superiors to install electric lights and repair roads for them.
Talking about it, the topic came back:
"You guys think, is there really nothing wrong with that relative from the youngest family?"
Yi Zhongyuan spoke again, "Could it be that they knew from somewhere that the higher-ups were helping us, so they deliberately made up this identity?"
Upon hearing this, the others fell silent.
They actually knew in their hearts that the girl's appearance was too abrupt, and it happened to be when they learned that they were going to repair the road and install electric lights.
They don't believe that there is no problem.
But the problem is that they have no evidence, and it is not easy for them to ask the youngest brother's family directly in front of them.
After all, they are relatives of the youngest brother. If they do this, won’t they be disliked?
"I hope they're not that kind of people."
Fan Yadi said softly, "If anyone dares to harm the youngest's family, I, an old woman, will be the first to not forgive them."
"Humph, if he really has some intention, I'm afraid it will be too late for us to know."
When Ou Guiying doesn't want to talk nicely, she always says things that make people feel uncomfortable.
Yi Zhongju pondered for a moment and then reassured him: "Don't worry, that girl probably isn't here to harm the youngest's family."
"Old Three, do you know something?"
Yi Zhongyuan looked at him and said, "You live closest to the youngest's house. You can hear everything they say. Did you hear something?"
As they spoke, everyone cast inquiring glances at Yi Zhongju.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Yi Zhongju hesitated before saying, "The night before yesterday, after returning from the fourth brother's house, I took the mute to the youngest brother's house and sat for a while."
"I also spoke to Miss Xiao Ran."
After a slight pause, waiting for everyone to digest the meaning of his words, he continued: "I can see that Miss Xiao Ran has no ill will towards the youngest family."
"Evil deeds are not written on one's face."
Ou Guiying muttered softly, but Yi Zhongqi glared at her and she shut up and didn't say anything else.
Yi Zhongju glanced at her and smiled: "Old Fourth is right, bad people don't write their badness on their faces, but you can tell a lot from their eyes."
"Although I don't have much ability, I can still tell whether a person's eyes are right or not."
"That girl's eyes are very straight, without any uncomfortable twists and turns."
"Also, did you notice that even though we suspected her, she didn't say anything mean to us. Instead, she patiently explained."
Yi Zhongju sighed as he spoke, "If it weren't for the absolute last resort, who would be willing to travel so far to come to our rural area?"
"It must have been difficult for her, a girl, to have been running around looking for her relatives all these years."
After he said this, everyone nodded involuntarily.
That’s true. Who would want to live a life of displacement unless they had no other choice?
Maybe they really blamed others wrongly.
Thinking of her previous guess, Fan Yadi couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.
She looked at everyone and said, "Let's stop guessing. When the youngest's family comes out, we can ask them and we'll know."
"Okay, that's the only way."
Ou Guiying was the first to agree, "As long as they're not here to harm the youngest family, there's no need to think the worst of them."
For a moment, peace returned to the main hall of the fourth room.
Everyone was chatting with each other, and the atmosphere was always harmonious and warm.
On the other hand, after chatting with Liu Guoxiang and his wife for a few more words, Ran Qiaojun suggested taking a walk nearby.
Hearing this, Liu Guoxiang quickly stood up and said, "Sister, why don't you let the child go with you? You are not familiar with our village, and someone will lead you so that you don't get lost."
"No, no, I'm very good at finding my way."
Ran Qiaojun smiled brightly and said, "Sister, don't worry about me."
"Sister Mengchen and I have traveled extensively over the years. Where haven't we been?"
"If such a small village can make me get lost, then I have no right to come to your house."
When Yi Zhongxiang and his wife heard this, they understood that the other party was probably going to survey the terrain and look for a suitable place to build a house.
So the two of them no longer insisted on having their child follow them, and only reminded her to be careful when going out, as some families have dogs and she should not get bitten.
"Don't worry, I'm very good at it."
Ran Qiaojun said, she looked at Yi Zhongxiang: "Brother-in-law, do you have a bicycle at home? Lend it to me? It will be more convenient for me to ride."
Yi Zhongxiang smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Sister, you think too highly of me. With our family's financial situation, how can we afford such precious items?
"It doesn't matter if you don't have it. It's just a matter of taking a few more steps."
Ran Qiaojun smiled and turned to walk out the door, "Then I'll go out for a walk first, sister, brother-in-law, you guys go ahead and get busy."
"Sister, please be careful on the road. Come back when you get tired."
Liu Guoxiang stood at the door and gave loud instructions.
"I understand, sis."
Ran Qiaojun responded with a smile and quickly disappeared out the door.
Watching her disappearing figure, Liu Guoxiang took a deep breath and smiled, "It's not bad to have a sister like this."
"If they are willing, then just leave as relatives."
Yi Zhongxiang patted his wife's shoulder and said, "Anyway, from now on, she is your sister, no more distant than his fifth sister."
"I'm just worried about how I'm going to tell the Bandit Bend brothers and sisters-in-law if they show up."
Liu Guoxiang pondered this question and wondered, "What would they think if they knew I had contact with my biological father?"
"What can I think?"
Yi Zhongxiang didn't think there was anything wrong with this. "They're just two 'orphans'. They shouldn't be so intolerant of them, right?"
"Unless they no longer want to acknowledge our relationship, they won't have any objections."
"It's been a relationship for decades. It won't change just because two 'orphans' suddenly appear."
"Don't worry."
Liu Guoxiang listened to her husband's words and pondered, "Do you think it's necessary to talk to my brother and sister-in-law about why the higher-ups are building a power station and industrial park here?"
"Don't tell me for now."
Yi Zhongxiang stopped him, saying, "Let them discover this themselves in the future. Don't talk about it casually."
"The main thing is that even if you tell us, people might not believe you. On the contrary, they might even laugh at us for dreaming."
"Of course, if necessary, we can help arrange formal jobs for our nephews. That way, no one will have any objections."
Liu Guoxiang nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Youngest, from the youngest's family."
When the couple was standing in the courtyard and talking in low voices, the people who were talking in the fourth room came out and called them to stop, and waved to them, indicating that they should go upstairs to talk.
