Chapter 206 Destiny
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Lanyi reacted the fastest. He followed Nuobao's line of sight and immediately found something wrong!
"Oh no, this child has eaten something!" Xiao Lanyi frowned and shouted.
He quickly stood up, picked up the swaddling clothes, put the child upside down on his arm, and patted her back with his other hand!
After a few pats, there was a "wow" sound, and an aventurine jade bead was vomited to the ground.
Old lady Xiao stared at the bead, then looked at the child's purple face, her pupils trembled, and her heart was hanging. Mrs. Xiao was
even more frightened. When she came to her senses, she realized her negligence and hurriedly hugged the baby girl, her face as pale as paper.
"Mother, it's my fault. I only cared about resting myself and forgot about Yuan Jie'er in my arms." Mrs. Xiao was ashamed and afraid, biting her lips uncomfortably.
After all, she was not her biological child, and she had only been in her arms for a few days, so it was inevitable that she was a little unfamiliar and careless.
Mrs. Xiao didn't care. She turned her eyes and looked at the little Nuobao beside her, her eyes full of gratitude.
"Wanjun, if it weren't for this child who reminded us, I'm afraid that something bad would really happen. Why don't you thank them quickly!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao turned around quickly, panting, and went forward to hug the little Nuobao.
"Thank you... Thank you, child... Otherwise, I don't know what to do..." Her voice was still unstable, and she was shaking like sieve chaff, which showed that she was extremely scared.
Xiao Lanyi touched Nuobao's head lovingly.
This sweet girl always comes to the rescue at the most critical moment.
Little Nuobao didn't take credit for herself. She was standing on tiptoe, anxious to see how the baby girl was doing.
The little baby was lying in the cradle, crying heartbreakingly, with saliva all over her mouth.
Because the beads hurt her throat, the poor child's saliva even tasted bloody.
Little Nuobao saw that she was still soft, but only about five or six months old, younger than Chun Ge'er, and couldn't help feeling distressed.
This was very generous. She held the rabbit in her hand in front of her and shook it vigorously with her little hands.
"Don't cry, little sister, let me give you this to play with~"
The little baby heard the sound, stared at it for a few times, and then really stopped crying. She looked at Little Nuobao with her wet black eyes instead of Mr. Rabbit.
"Ah, ah..." The little girl opened her mouth towards Nuobao and spit out a big mouthful of water.
She wanted to reach out and touch Nuobao, but her limbs were tightly held by Mrs. Xiao, so she couldn't move.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao clapped her legs in surprise: "Wanjun, look, did Sister Yuan smile just now? The carriage was bumpy, and the child had just left her parents, and she had been crying all the way. This is the first time I see her smile!"
Mrs. Xiao stroked her chest and lowered her head to tease the child: "Indeed, mother, we have been coaxing her for so long on the road, and she has never looked at us like this."
Although Mrs. Xiao has been trying to attract the attention of the child in her arms, the little milk ball only babbled at Nuobao, and her pure black eyes were full of curiosity.
The two children were in tune with each other. As if Nuobao understood what she meant, he also shook his head at her and grinned.
"Yiya~" Nuobao deliberately imitated her in a baby voice.
After such teasing, the little kid finally stopped crying and insisted on coming over and nudging Nuobao.
Mrs. Xiao felt relieved and focused all her attention on little Nuobao.
The kid was wearing a purple wisteria dress and a pair of pigtails. His face was chubby and white as tofu. He looked blessed.
Rich people like this kind of little blessed face the most. Mrs. Xiao was immediately happier and took off a pair of gold bracelets and stuffed them into Nuobao's small palms.
"This child looks good to me, and she just saved my little nephew and granddaughter. It's really a deep fate." Mrs. Xiao's heroic face showed joy, and she said straightforwardly: "Why not let Yuan Jieer recognize her as a god sister, so that she will not forget the life-saving grace, and ask for good luck for both children, how about it?"
Mrs. Xiao naturally had no objection and smiled slightly.
However, for the sake of being appropriate, she still said: "This is a good thing, mother, but we have to ask the family of this child first to see if they agree."
Mrs. Xiao agreed immediately.
Although this is a rural area, seeing that Nuobao is well-dressed, her family must not be an ordinary farmer. It is still unclear whether people will look down on the Xiao family.
The Xiao family is not arrogant, so Mrs. Xiao is going to send someone to find Nuobao's parents and ask them.
Seeing this, Xiao Lanyi, who was standing by, couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and laughed.
Tsk tsk, even this grandmother blames him for not wanting to go home? If the ancestor came in person, wouldn't he still be captured by Nuobao!
At this time, Mrs. Feng couldn't find the concubine and went upstairs.
"Nuobao, why are you here? Are you disturbing the guests to rest? Come down with your mother." Mrs. Feng picked up the concubine and was about to greet the guests.
Mrs. Xiao then realized that this little girl was the child of the owner of Xianquanju.
She smiled and told her what happened just now.
Mrs. Feng was slightly surprised.
This precious girl, after not seeing her for a while, can do something big.
Feng picked up the gold bracelet and felt it was too heavy, so she quickly returned it.
"How can I accept such an expensive gift when we first meet? You are too polite."
Mrs. Xiao was very persistent and pushed it back: "No matter how expensive it is, it is just an external thing. It is not as important as your daughter saving my nephew's life."
Seeing the two of them pushing and shoving, both of them were a little stubborn.
Xiao Lanyi finally couldn't help it, took the gold bracelet, and took it for Xiao Nuobao on her own initiative.
"Why can't I accept it, Sister Feng? My grandmother doesn't know, but you know it too. Nuobao is just like my own sister. Even if it's not because of what happened today, it's only natural for her to accept my bracelet."
After saying that, he stuffed the bracelet into the inner pocket of little Nuobao's collar.
Little Nuobao suddenly felt that his clothes were heavy and he was about to fall down.
But when he thought that it was all gold, the little guy couldn't help but jump for joy. He hurriedly covered his clothes, his eyes full of light!
Old Mrs. Xiao was stunned when she heard this.
She looked at the "rebellious grandson" and said in surprise: "What do you mean by just like my own sister? From what you said, you mean that you have known this family for a long time?"
Xiao Lanyi touched the back of her head and simply told everything that had happened in the past few days.
Knowing that it was the owner of Xianquanju and the little baby who attracted Xiao Lanyi to stay, Mrs. Xiao was surprised and happy.
No wonder her grandson was so reluctant to leave. Even she, an old woman, liked this place a little. Especially
with such a cute little Nuobao who was like a timely rain.
Mrs. Xiao raised her lips and said with great joy: "It's such a coincidence. It seems that this is the destiny of our two families!"
Mrs. Xiao was full of excitement. She was no longer in a hurry to urge Xiao Lanyi to go with her. Instead, she wanted to stay with him.
"In that case, I will also stay here for a few days. Wanjun, quickly ask the servants outside the door to go to the carriage and unload all the luggage!" Old Lady Xiao waved her hand and said excitedly.
