150 Village
After dinner, Xiao Tingyun thought about going out for a walk around the area.
When I told the village manager that I wanted to visit Xiaoshan's family, he hesitated and said, "Miss, the situation of those farmers is probably not that good..."
What the manager of the manor meant was that the countryside was naturally not as good as the city. It was okay to stay in the manor, as the decorations were all based on the style of the capital. But if she went outside, there would be a lot of dirt and mess, and he was afraid that this precious girl would not be able to adapt.
The housekeeper was already very nervous about going to the mountain before.
What if there is someone ignorant in the village who bumps into us?
Xiao Tingyun understood what the manor manager meant, and just smiled to comfort him, "You don't have to worry that I will be dissatisfied. It's not good to stay at home when you come to the manor, otherwise I will be in trouble for coming here."
Manager Zhuang advised her to give up this idea, but Xiao Tingyun was determined to go, so he had to go with her. With him around, those people would be more cautious.
Xiao Tingyun took a group of people to a nearby village.
As soon as I came in, some children who were playing at the entrance of the village saw me.
"Wow! It's a fairy!" A little boy about three or four years old stared at Xiao Tingyun and exclaimed.
Another older little girl, about seven or eight years old, immediately covered her brother's mouth and warned him softly, "Don't talk nonsense. What if she gets upset?"
The little boy nodded with round eyes, and the girl let him go.
But I was thinking: She really looks like a fairy...
The boy didn't say anything else, but just looked at Xiao Tingyun curiously.
Xiao Tingyun gave him a kind smile.
The boy was immediately happy, and whispered in the girl's ear, "Sister, the fairy smiled at me."
girl:……
Xiao Tingyun kept walking inside, and more and more children followed him.
Although they were following her, she could feel that they were all looking at him with curiosity.
Manager Zhuang asked them to go and play and not to follow him.
The kids did move a little further away, but overall they still followed them.
Manager Zhuang frowned and wanted to ask them to leave.
Xiao Tingyun shook his head. "Forget it, just follow me."
"yes."
There was no bad intention behind them, and children are curious. However, such a big scene naturally attracted the attention of adults.
At first I just poked my head out to take a look, but later I was shocked to find that a fairy-like girl had come to this small place.
Gu had no choice but to stand up and see what the girl was going to do.
However, after seeing that Steward Zhuang was standing next to them, some of them boldly asked, "Steward Zhuang, who is this fairy-like lady?"
Manager Zhuang snorted, "Don't be rude! This is the third young lady of our Xiao family!"
Third Miss? !
Isn’t that the master of Marquis Dingbei’s Mansion? ?
The man's expression changed immediately, and he said in a fearful tone, "I, I am blind, I hope Miss Third will forgive me."
"It's okay, you all go and do your own things. I just wanted to come and take a look." Xiao Tingyun didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he thought that these people were quite interesting.
Although they are at the bottom of society, they still work very hard. The mud on their feet has not been removed yet, but there is no sign of distress on their faces.
After Xiao Tingyun said this, those people instantly developed a deep liking for him. After all, those noble ladies had only existed in their imaginations, and they had never seen such a friendly noble lady who wanted to come and see them, the country bumpkins who were digging for food in the fields.
Soon, more people came closer.
Among them was Xiaoshan, who, relying on his short height, squeezed in from under the adult's armpit like a loach.
When she saw Xiao Tingyun and the others, her eyes lit up, "Miss! Sister Luzhi, Sister Lanzhi, and Sister Caixing!!"
Xiao Tingyun smiled and waved his hand for him to come over, "Come here quickly."
He ran towards them from the top of the hill with a group of envious eyes on him, his chest heaving slightly as he ran, and he took a deep breath.
Xiao Tingyun touched his head and asked, "Was it you who delivered this this morning?"
Xiao Shan nodded shyly, "My parents said that they didn't have anything good to give you, so they went to the river to catch some fish for you."
As he spoke, he carefully looked at her face and asked, "Do you like it?"
"I like it. I've tried it and it's delicious." Xiao Tingyun naturally did not ignore the expectation in Xiaoshan's eyes, and it really tasted good.
As expected, Xiaoshan was very surprised when he heard this, "I'm glad you like it. I'll send it back to you tomorrow!"
"Don't bother, just keep it for yourself and eat it at home."
They probably couldn't bear to eat the fish themselves and wanted to give it to her. She was not an ungrateful person.
Xiao Shan scratched his head and said, "Dad can still catch some fish. My dad is really good at catching fish!"
Xiaoshan’s father: …You are truly my good son!
Xiao Tingyun was amused, "You didn't even ask your father's opinion and just made the decision for him. Doesn't your father blame you?"
Xiaoshan paused. He indeed had not asked his father's opinion, and there was a lot of work to do at home recently, so he was afraid that he would not have much free time.
"Well, then..." Xiaoshan couldn't think of any good idea for a moment.
Someone teased Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, your father is busy, but I am. How about I go fishing for you tomorrow? When you grow up, you can marry my girl, how about that?"
Xiaoshan glared at him. There was no trace of his girl at all. They were all bad boys. Why should he marry them?
"Uncle Zhang, even if you miss the girl like crazy, you don't want me to get involved!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Then it's okay to marry someone from my family. I can also catch fish for you!" another lady teased.
Xiao Shan raised his head in disdain and said, "Forget it, Auntie. You are not much better at catching fish than me!"
"Hey, this guy doesn't think highly of me!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Xiao Tingyun couldn't help but laughed, "Xiaoshan, why don't you take me to your house?"
"You want to go to my house?" Xiaoshan's eyes lit up, "I'll take you there right now!"
"Miss Third, why don't you go to my house and rest first? My house is just in front." An old lady couldn't help but come out to poach people.
Such a beautiful girl, a daughter of an official family, and kind-hearted. If I could go to her house, it would be a great honor for my humble home!
Xiaoshan's eyes widened. He didn't expect there was such a thing and he felt a little anxious.
"Come to my house! I have..."
"My house is fine too. I have a persimmon tree at home!"
“Me, me, me!—”
It was the first time that Xiao Tingyun was surrounded by so many people's enthusiasm, and he was a little stunned for a moment.
Manager Zhuang couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard the chattering sounds around him. He didn't expect the scene to be like this.
These people were getting closer and closer. Xiao Tingyun felt that his breathing was a little uncomfortable and he called out Luzhi softly.
Seeing this, Luzhi frowned and shouted, "Shut up!"
The sound stopped suddenly.
Everyone looked at each other and dared not say anything.
"What are you guys yelling about? My lady doesn't like too many people making noise!"
