"Mom? What Mom? You never let me have a moment's peace! Didn't you go out to play? Why are you back again!"
Upon seeing her son covered in mud, the middle-aged woman immediately rushed forward and lifted him up.
"Do you know how hard it is for me to wash your clothes? You just changed me into clean clothes and you've made them so dirty again. I think you deserve a beating!"
While speaking, she vigorously patted her son's head. The little boy looked playful and showed no fear. After his mother patted him clean, the little boy chuckled.
"What were you trying to say? Go ahead and say it!"
The little boy raised his hand, turned around, pointed towards the village entrance, and shouted loudly:
"Several black cars have come to our village. Those cars look bigger than my cousin's van, and they must be much more expensive!"
The middle-aged woman looked surprised. Outsiders had come to her small mountain village? And they even brought several cars.
Thinking of this, a look of joy suddenly appeared on the middle-aged woman's face. Several black cars, could it be that the higher-ups have come to donate things again? Then she had to hurry over, otherwise the good things would be picked up by others if she was late.
"Go and wake your dad up, he's been sleeping all day. I'm going to the village entrance now!"
The little boy reached out and tugged at his mother's clothes, looking puzzled, and asked a question.
"What are you going to the village entrance for? Are you going to look at the cars too? Then I won't call my dad, we'll go together. I want to take another look at those cars."
The middle-aged woman in the red blouse shoved her son's hand away and ran outside while shouting angrily.
"What are you looking at? That car must be here to donate something. Go call your dad, I'll go save a spot!"
Hearing his mother say this, the little boy was also very excited. They came to donate things? That means he'll have a new toy tonight, and maybe even some good food at home!
When the woman in red arrived at the village entrance, she saw that most of the adults in the village had already arrived, including even the elder Ninth Master, who rarely went out.
"That old geezer is quite proactive, that old codger!"
Just as the woman finished speaking, a somewhat familiar child's voice rang out from the crowd, accompanied by exclamations of surprise from the villagers.
"Ninth Grandfather! Ninth Grandfather!"
Upon seeing Grandpa Jiu, who was struggling to walk, Xiao Yanbao immediately jumped off the car and ran towards him.
At first, the villagers didn't recognize Xiao Yanbao. They looked at Xiao Yanbao and Ninth Uncle, the most senior member of the village, and whispered among themselves.
"Does Ninth Master have such wealthy relatives outside?"
The adults immediately recognized the license plates of the five black vans, so when the person who got out of the car called out "Grandpa Jiu," everyone gasped in surprise.
"I knew Ninth Master was no ordinary man. Look, these five cars alone are worth tens of millions."
"What? This... this is so rich? What do you need so much money to buy a car for? If I had this much money, I would build a building and install an elevator inside. Then I would ride up and down in the elevator every day."
Hearing the ignorant words spoken by those around them, everyone laughed and laughed. At the same time, Grandpa Jiu opened his arms and greeted Xiao Yanbao with a smile.
"Xiao Xinyan, is that you?"
Xiao Yanbao nodded immediately, and at the same time looked at Grandpa Jiu's left leg. Grandpa Jiu raised his hand and gently stroked Xiao Yanbao's head. Perhaps because he was too excited, his trachea tingled when he swallowed.
"Cough cough..."
Grandpa Jiu was coughing incessantly, his face turning red, as if he were about to run out of breath.
The middle-aged man standing next to Grandpa Jiu also recognized Xiao Yanbao, and his expression changed drastically. He then pulled Grandpa Jiu backward.
"Don't come any closer! You jinx! Ninth Master starts to feel unwell as soon as you come in!"
A jinx? Could it be that little girl is back?
The villagers stared intently and realized that the stylishly dressed young girl was indeed the same little girl who had been driven out of the village before. Some of the villagers' expressions instantly turned extremely ugly...
