If their general heard this, he would be extremely jealous. "Miss, you've misunderstood. I am Xiaoyan's cousin."
Hearing the word "cousin," Xia Minmin felt quite puzzled.
In the blink of an eye, she saw Ling Ba admitted to the hospital again. This time, before she could mistake him for someone else, Qiu Yan said, "I am not married. This child is my fiancé's. He is serving in the army and is not in the village."
Qiu Yan didn't want her cousin to misunderstand her.
"Her fiancé's child?" Qiu Yan's words made Xia Minmin's head spin.
But seeing that Qiu Yan was unwilling to say more, he didn't press her further.
Where are your younger brother and sister?
Qiu Yan: "They are studying in Baiyang."
"Studying? My sister is studying too?"
"Um."
Seeing Qiu Yan nod, Xia Minmin's understanding was once again refreshed.
Xiao Ran stared intently at Xia Minmin, "Mommy, is this older sister your friend?"
Xia Minmin smiled gently and walked towards Gu Xiaoran. "You can't call me 'sister.' I'm your mother's cousin. You have to call me 'aunt.'"
Speaking of age, she is five years older than Qiu Yan, but her round face has a bit of baby fat, which makes her look younger.
When she was young, her family was too poor and she had many younger siblings, so she stayed at home to do chores.
Therefore, she never married, thus delaying her marriage.
When she was ten years old, she came to Lingnan Village once with her birth mother.
She had a vague impression of Qiu Yan, but she had never met Qiu Xu or Qiu Ling'er before.
Gu Xiaoran didn't think about why Qiu Yan suddenly had a cousin, and just sweetly called out, "Auntie."
When Xia Minmin heard Xiao Ran call her, she smiled and played with him.
To confirm Xia Minmin's identity, Qiu Yan made a special trip to the village chief's house to inquire about the person who had come.
Wang recalled that she and her husband had met Qiu Yan's aunt more than ten years ago.
Although a long time has passed, they still have some impression of what Qiu Yan's aunt looked like.
And this Xia Minmin looks somewhat like her mother, so it seems that's correct.
Qiu Yan confirmed Xia Minmin's identity and no longer had any doubts.
This girl had clear, innocent eyes. Since she was a cousin, she naturally treated her well.
When Xia Minmin first arrived at the Qiu family, she felt somewhat awkward in front of Qiu Yan.
As Xia Minmin looked at the table full of delicious food during dinner in the evening, she felt as if she were in a dream.
That night, Xia Minmin slept on Qiu Yan's soft bed, feeling somewhat unreal.
Everything here was so different from what she had imagined.
Early in the morning, Xia Minmin saw Qiu Yan busy and offered to help.
Upon seeing that many people had come to Qiu Yan's house, she did not forget to ask, "Why did Qiu Yan hire so many people?"
After understanding the situation, she rolled up her sleeves and immediately joined in the pharmaceutical production.
But after getting to know her, she gradually opened up.
She was gentle by nature, and Zhu Juan was kind-hearted. When she learned that the girl was Qiu Yan's cousin, she was very kind to her.
The two got along quite well.
Not to mention Zhu Juan, even Gu Xiaoran at home likes to talk to Xia Minmin.
However, to Qiu Yan's surprise, Xia Minmin stayed at her house for more than half a month, either helping to make medicine or helping to clear land and plant medicinal herbs, without ever mentioning leaving.
As a result, most of the people who worked for Qiu Yan knew about her.
Among the villagers, many women began to try to get close to Qiu Yan and introduced their sons to her.
Qiu Yan found these things somewhat amusing.
However, it's best to let Xia Minmin decide such a matter herself.
