Chapter 1490 The Sturdy Little Zaozao
The carriage wasn't moving fast. An old lady was sitting in the carriage, and she had just fallen ill, so Shu Yu told her to go slowly.
The weather was nice and cool these past few days, so Shuyu opened the curtains and looked at the scenery outside with the old lady.
"Once your great-aunt is found, I'll bring her here to see it. This place is completely different from what it was thirty or forty years ago." Perhaps because she had some expectations in her heart, the old lady no longer shied away from mentioning Xiao Fangshi after the matter was brought up.
Shu Yu laughed and said, "That's right. Once you find your great-aunt, you can travel around with her. Anyway, we have a carriage at home. You can go to places you've been before, places you haven't been before, and places you want to go. Life will be quite enjoyable."
Although she didn't know if Xiao Fang could still be found, the old lady had hope, which was better than having no hope at all.
The old lady's eyes lit up when she heard Shu Yu's description. "That's good."
As the grandfather and grandson were talking, the car arrived at the village.
The sunflowers are only about half a person tall right now, and they look lush and green. Although they haven't bloomed into golden flowers yet, they are still incredibly beautiful at first glance.
The old lady was delighted. Before, the family only owned a few acres of land, and after Lu Erbai injured his leg, they had to sell it to raise money. Now, in such a short time, this entire area of land belongs to them; it's so festive.
The carriage stopped outside the village, and the old lady was still turning her head to look at the flower field, reluctant to look away.
Then Zhou Qiao's surprised voice came from inside, "Grandma? What brings you here?"
The old lady turned around, but the first thing she saw was the child in her arms.
She immediately stepped forward and took the child from her, saying, "Oh, little Zaozao, let your great-grandmother hold you."
Xiao Zaozao opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth, and a string of drool came out.
She probably found it very amusing and started giggling.
The old lady bounced her over and said, "This little girl is really... sturdy."
My little girl is almost six months old now. She's not exactly heavy, but she's definitely not light either.
The old lady had taken care of many children, but none of them had arms like hers, which were as thick as lotus roots.
Back then, the family was poor, and there wasn't much breast milk, so the babies were all skinny. But Xiao Zaozao was different. Zhou Qiao took good care of her during her postpartum period, ate well, and had plenty of breast milk. Plus, Da Niu found a wet nurse early on, so of course the little girl chubby.
Xiao Zaozao is very easy to take care of. She's at a stage where she's curious about everything. As long as she can see the outside world, she doesn't care who holds her.
Shu Yu teased her for a while before the old lady chased her away, saying, "Alright, Shu Yu, don't you have things to do at the workshop? Go ahead and get busy. I'll just stay here and talk to your sister-in-law and keep an eye on Xiao Zaozao."
"Alright then." Shu Yu let go of her hand and saw the old lady carrying Xiao Zaozao to the side to look at the door frame before walking over to Zhou Qiao and whispering, "Grandma was sick yesterday, but she's better today so I brought her out for a walk. Please help take care of her, sister-in-law, and remind her to rest later."
Zhou Qiao was unaware that the old lady was ill, and upon hearing this, she nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of things here."
There are servants in the manor, and Hua Xian is also there, so there's nothing to worry about.
Shu Yu simply gave Zhou Qiao a heads-up and then quickly said goodbye.
She boarded the carriage, and the sound of it driving away quickly caught Xiao Zaozao's attention. The little girl stretched out her arms and cried out, trying to rush over, almost causing the old lady to drop her. Zhou Qiao took the child and turned her around to coax her to look at the flower field.
