Chapter 652: Family
As the night deepened, the Wan family's yard finally returned to peace.
There was no conversation that night, but the next morning, the courtyard became lively.
Pinellia, Angelica dahurica and Osmanthus fragrans are the first to rise.
Old Mrs. Wan and Second Sister-in-law Wan did not get up in the morning due to health reasons. Liu and Wan Yu also woke up at a fixed time every day. Old Second Wan was tired from the journey, and since Old Mrs. Wan and Second Sister-in-law Wan were both fine, he felt relieved and slept soundly.
Wan Laosan woke up early in the morning and went to the town.
In the yard, Pinellia ternata and Angelica dahurica are getting to know Osmanthus fragrans.
"Little sister, my name is Banxia and her name is Baizhi. We are the young lady's people. We are new to this family and don't understand many things. We need you to explain them to us."
Guihua saw several unfamiliar faces coming to her house last night, but it was a bit chaotic last night so she didn't dare to ask.
"Sister Banxia, Sister Baizhi, my name is Guihua. I was also bought by Grandma Wan and Auntie. They are good people and have never treated me as a servant. I have been in this family for two years. Everyone treats me as a child of the Wan family. From now on, we are all a family. You can ask me if you have any questions. But you two sisters look like you come from a wealthy family. You should not do the work we do in the countryside."
Guihua said as she looked at the clothes on the two people. They were much better than hers, and they were skirts. She definitely couldn't work with these clothes.
Banxia and Baizhi also looked down at their clothes.
"Sister Guihua, is there something wrong with our clothes?"
"There's nothing wrong with the clothes, but we farmers don't wear them like this. It's not convenient for us to work. Also, the material is too good. It would be a pity if it got dirty."
"That's easy. Let's go change. What do you want to do? Let's help together."
Banxia is efficient in his work and fluent in his speech.
"I need to cook and feed the chickens, geese and rabbits. Can you light a fire?"
"Yes, and we can also help feed the chickens and geese."
Guihua brought the two of them into the kitchen.
"This is the stove. Sister, you can light the fire first and cook a pot of porridge for breakfast. I'll knead the dough and make pancakes, and then stir-fry a few dishes."
"Sister Guihua, you don't have to be polite. Just tell us what else you want to do. We can learn even if we don't know how." Baizhi also asked.
She found that this little girl, who was a few years younger than them, knew so many things that she admired her.
"Sister Baizhi, you can help me wash the vegetables, and I'll cut them later. I'll go chop grass leaves to feed the chickens and geese first."
"Use a knife? Let me chop it. You wash the vegetables. I'm good at using a knife."
Baizhi blinked and smiled at Guihua.
But to Guihua, she just thought Baizhi was good at cooking.
"Okay, Sister Baizhi, come here, I'll tell you how to do it."
I saw Guihua go to the shed next to her, take out a bundle of green grass from the basket and put it on the ground.
"Sister Baizhi, here is a guillotine. Just chop the grass into pieces. Call me when you are done. I will mix some rice bran in it and you can feed it."
Bai Zhi listened carefully and found it very interesting. Although she was a maid, she had never been exposed to farm life.
"Okay, leave this to me, you go and do your thing."
Guihua was a little worried. There was a huge difference between a guillotine and a kitchen knife. She took a look at Baizhi's fair and tender skin and was really afraid that she would chop her hand.
"Sister Baizhi...if you really can't do it, don't force it. Safety is the most important thing."
Bai Zhi waved her hand, "Don't worry, it's no problem."
Baizhi had a look of curiosity about new things on her face. She squatted down and imitated Guihua's actions just now. She put a bundle of grass under the blade of the chopper and pressed hard, and the grass was cut off.
Guihua watched for a while, found that Baizhi was doing a good job, and left.
Fubao was awakened by the smell of rice coming from the kitchen.
When she opened her eyes, she saw her mother looking at her, with her grandmother beside her.
"Mom, grandma, are you awake? How do you feel?" Fubao hurriedly felt their pulses.
Mrs. Wan Er and Old Lady Wan both already knew that Fubao knew medical skills.
At this moment, the two of them let Fubao feel their pulses with doting smiles on their faces.
"Second son's wife, this lucky baby is back. I feel like the air in the house is different now. It smells sweet."
"Grandma, it's really sweet. I can smell the fragrance of rice in the kitchen. Sister Guihua must have made something delicious."
Fubao said with a smile while hugging Old Mrs. Wan.
"Oh, now that you said that, my stomach is rumbling. I feel like I can eat a whole cow."
"Grandma, you must eat more. You've lost weight, and Fubao is worried about you."
Fubao touched Grandma Wan's sunken cheeks. She remembered that when she left, her grandmother's face was still rosy and the wrinkles on her face had decreased a lot. Now she looked the same as when she was exiled to Shizi Village, or even older than then.
"Grandma's heart and soul are back. Everything she eats tastes delicious. It will be back in a while."
Fubao nodded heavily.
"Grandma, Mom, you two must be well."
"Don't worry, Mom will be fine. Mom still wants to watch Fubao grow up."
"Dinner is ready. It's time to eat." Guihua walked in from outside, followed by Baizhi and Pinellia.
The two of them have been following Guihua since morning, and they do whatever Guihua does. This should be the fastest way to get familiar with this home.
Guihua skillfully put away the quilt on the kang and set the kang table in place.
Now that there are more people in the family, Guihua knows that Grandma Wan likes to have her children and grandchildren around her, and it is lively and lively, so she directly arranges breakfast in Grandma Wan's room.
"Grandma, sister Fubao is back. You look much better today."
"Guihua, you have worked so hard during this period, running around and taking care of me and your second aunt. You are a great contributor to our family."
"Grandma, it's my duty to take care of you and Second Aunt. I haven't done anything useful in the house and outside. It's all the same work. I'm used to it. I don't feel comfortable letting others do it. But Sister Baizhi and Sister Banxia helped me do it today, which saved me half the time."
Old Mrs. Wan had already noticed Banxia and Baizhi behind Guihua. These two girls were so pretty. Looking around the young girls and wives in the village, none of them were as pretty as these two girls.
"Fubao, did you bring these two girls back?"
Old Mrs. Wan didn't think anywhere else.
"Grandma, this is sister Banxia, and this is sister Baizhi. They were both given to me by my big brother. They are both amazing and know Kung Fu."
"Oh, you know Kung Fu? I've never seen a woman who knows Kung Fu. Your elder brother is very thoughtful. After dinner, tell grandma about your elder brother."
"Oh, well, there is another happy event. I'm sure grandma will be so happy when she hears it."
Fubao kept the secret.
"Meeting you is the greatest joy. Nothing else is more important than you." Old Mrs. Wan hugged Fubao. Her face was full of wrinkles, but she looked much better.
Wan Ersao also looked at her daughter with eyes full of doting.
With three clever girls in the family, the Wan family finally has some free time.
However, when it was time to eat, Old Mrs. Wan asked everyone to sit at the table. Since Old Second Wan was the only man in the house, she did not deliberately avoid him.
Banxia and Baizhi had never eaten at the same table with their master, so they felt very uncomfortable when they were asked to sit down by Old Lady Wan.
Fu Bao noticed the two were uncomfortable and comforted them, "Sister Banxia, Sister Baizhi, I told you that we are a family from now on. We will eat every meal together. You will get used to it after a while."
Banxia and Baizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't eat much during the meal, and were only half full thanks to Liu's warm hospitality.
In order to hurry up, the driver who came to deliver the goods left with Wan Laosan early in the morning.
At this moment, the west wing of the house is filled with things and there is no place to step.
The family had just finished their meal when they heard a lot of talking coming from outside the yard.
