After hearing his words, Tang Baozhu understood the situation. However, she didn't have time at the moment, so she had to get the house decorated first and then go to check on it when she had some free time.
"I'm sorry, I don't have time right now. My son and I just moved here, and we haven't settled in yet, so we can't visit her at the moment. We'll visit the old lady at her company and home after we've settled in."
Tang Jie was getting anxious. This person could be his younger sister. If he found her and didn't bring her back immediately, his father and mother would break his legs.
“Madam, you may be my long-lost sister. Could you tell me where you are staying for the time being? Once you are settled, I will definitely come to visit you in person.”
Tang Baozhu felt that she should at least meet the original owner's relatives to know whether they were worth acknowledging, so she directly told him her address.
He told him that he would just take Xiaobao's hand and leave the place.
Tang Baozhu knew that the days ahead might not be peaceful. It was possible that her own relatives and her son's relatives would come. She just didn't know if they would get along well with her or if they would try to take her son away from her.
I've raised this son so well, he's always grown up by my side, it would be hard to let him go if someone else took him away.
Hopefully, Xiao Bao's father's family won't be too domineering or powerful, so that if they really try to take the child away, I might be able to win.
While I'm not afraid of them robbing me—after all, if they dare to rob me, I'll just kill them—it would be better if we didn't have to go that far.
After the people who looked like his sister and nephew left, Tang Jie stared blankly at their receding figures.
It took me a while to realize that I had forgotten what I was supposed to do and was eager to go back and tell my father and mother about this happy news.
For many years, the elderly mother has been constantly in tears, feeling that if she hadn't failed to take good care of the child, the people below wouldn't have been able to steal the child without her noticing.
Once Tang Baozhu's figure was out of sight, Tang Jie, accompanied by several servants, hurriedly headed back, eager to tell his family the joyful news.
As for his nephew, who looked very familiar, he had already forgotten about him.
Tang Baozhu forgot about this matter as soon as she turned her head. She took her son to the street and saw that there were a lot of people on the street and many small carts on both sides, which were full of things.
I'm already very familiar with these things. I remember when I first saw them, I was very curious and wanted to take a look at almost every stall.
I came across a place selling steamed buns and mantou, and ordered 40 of them.
Suddenly I realized I hadn't brought a basket with me. More than 40 steamed buns and dumplings were quite a lot, so I decided to talk to the dumpling vendor and buy a basket from the side of the street before buying the dumplings.
The owner of the steamed buns was a kind old man in his sixties or seventies. He agreed without saying a word, as if he wasn't worried at all that Tang Baozhu wouldn't come back to buy his steamed buns later.
Of course, Tang Baozhu wasn't the kind of person to go back on her word. She found a stall selling baskets in a corner, and there were many vegetable vendors nearby, and even wild fruits from the mountains were being sold.
After buying a basket that I could carry on my back, I went back to the place where they sold steamed buns.
When they got back, they found that the old man had already prepared all the steamed buns and mantou that Tang Baozhu had asked for, all wrapped in oil paper, with two buns inside each sheet of oil paper.
It seems the old man wasn't afraid of running away, so I quickly handed it over and put the bun in the basket.
Xiao Bao is very interested in everything he sees when he goes out. If Tang Baozhu hadn't been holding his hand tightly, he might have run away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, considering all the children at home waiting to be fed, I decided to quickly take him home. I'll bring Xiaobao out to play again next time I have the chance.
Tang Baozhu took her son's hand and headed home.
Seeing his mother's hurried manner, Xiao Bao didn't dare to throw a tantrum and try to stay and play, since he hadn't done such things since he was two years old.
When I got home, the door was exactly the same as when I left, with no signs of having been opened. I quickly took out my key and opened the door.
The children are still cleaning up; at least it looks much cleaner now.
She knew they were exceptionally diligent and showed no signs of laziness. Sometimes, seeing how sensible these children were, Tang Baozhu felt particularly heartbroken.
They were all orphans, and they knew that if they were immature and not diligent, they would worry about not being liked by others, so they thought about things a lot.
"I'm back with the steamed buns. You guys stop what you're doing for a moment and fill your stomachs first. Don't forget to wash your hands before you eat."
After the children washed their hands, they lined up one by one to receive buns from Tang Baozi. All the buns were wrapped in oil paper, two to a pack, one pack for each child.
If it's not enough, you can get more; some kids already have two.
The old man selling steamed buns was incredibly generous; each bun was about the size of an adult man's fist, more than enough to fill one's stomach.
For someone as small as Xiaobao, one bun is enough to fill him up. With more than 40 buns, there's no way he won't have enough to eat.
After eating, they rested for a while and then continued cleaning. Soon, the puppet returned with a cart full of things, followed by several people in their twenties and thirties.
Tang Baozhu bought such elderly people so that they could keep the yard tidy and that she could entrust such a large yard to them in the future.
The rest of the staff were responsible for cooking in the kitchen and washing and serving the children. After all, he planned to send all the children to a private school, and also send the girls to learn a trade, so that they could help his son in the future.
Now that the servants have been bought, the rest of the work can be handed over to them, and I can finally take a break.
Put everything the puppets bought back in its proper place: the pots and pans in the kitchen, and the mats and blankets in their respective rooms.
With the puppets around, one is truly worth ten. They can handle everything without me having to lift a finger, which is incredibly easy.
Meanwhile, after Tang Jie returned home, he went straight to the house in the backyard where his father and mother lived without saying a word, wanting to tell them as soon as possible the news that he had found his sister.
