Boys are naturally curious about wild things.
It seems to have no age limit. Tiger really adores her puppies and spends half a day playing with them every time he comes over. However, they only stay in the yard each time. The child is too young, and the dogs don't know any better, so Jian Dan doesn't want to cause any trouble.
"Go on, go on, but don't go too far, don't cause trouble, and come back in a bit."
"Okay, okay!"
Tiger, full of excitement, dragged the bewildered Xiaoxin and Xiaohua out the door, while Jixiang and the others ran wildly all over the place once they were outside.
Xiao Xinxin was still anxiously looking back for her after leaving the house, but Jian Dan quickly waved her hand.
She herself can't explain how she feels. Now that she thinks about it, she and Sheng Zhiyuan are complete strangers who have never met before. Yesterday was their first meeting. What was it that made her pay more attention to them and not immediately refuse his request?
Was it the little figure who remained silent even when beaten, resisting in despair, or the father who never gave up despite all the humiliation, but then went all in when he harbored malice towards his child? Or was it simply that he was interested in the "good stuff" that Sheng Zhiyuan mentioned? In any case, this is what ultimately led to this outcome.
This was something she herself dared not imagine; she truly received it herself.
"Why!"
Just think, she's only a sixteen-year-old girl, and now she's bringing home a three- or four-year-old child. Can you believe it?
She herself found it unbelievable. Now that she thinks about it, she must have been poisoned yesterday, otherwise how could she have gotten this job?
Then there's Sheng Zhiyuan, who's even bolder. He dared to hand over such a young, innocent girl to a complete stranger, and even offered his vast fortune as a reward. If it were someone else, wouldn't they have raised another ungrateful child?
Even with such a substantial amount of wealth at the base, just looking at those boxes of treasures makes my eyes light up.
Those boxes were clearly accumulated and passed down through generations, containing gold, silver, antiques, and ancient books—virtually everything imaginable, though the proportion was quite clear: gold was the main component.
Jian Dan also admires the ancestors of the Sheng family; they were so wise. Gold is a hard currency in any era.
Although Jian Dan considers herself not a good person, she is not an irredeemable villain either. She had a history of bloodshed in her past life, so she is not a soft-hearted person at all.
After transmigrating, fearing that others would discover her abnormality, and given that the identity of this body was indeed not entirely pure, she, being a newcomer, just wanted to find a place to live a peaceful life and didn't dare to act recklessly.
After arriving in the countryside, she didn't encounter any of the extreme characters described in novels. Before she even had a chance to do anything, she gradually adapted to the simplicity and honesty of the place, transforming from a cold-blooded and numb person with blood on her hands into someone who became a savior for others.
In just over a year, Jian Dan has completely transformed into a person who is the complete opposite of her previous life.
Not only her lifestyle, but also her attitude towards life and her way of doing things are the complete opposite of the flamboyant young lady from her previous life.
Tiger was overjoyed. He usually only had one younger sister, Xiaohua, and the old lady didn't want Xiaohua to play too much with these naughty boys. But now that he saw this little sister, he was eager to bring her out to show her off. There wasn't a girl as pretty and clean as her in the village.
Even the smallest flowers aren't this white.
The little ones, in particular, were unrestrained when they started running around. Following Tiger, they would disappear in no time.
Not to mention Xiao Xinxin, even Xiao Hua has fallen behind.
However, Xiaohua is familiar with this kind of thing, and if this guy goes crazy, there's no hope for him.
I looked at my little sister.
"Let's not play with those kids anymore. I'll take you to my house. My grandma and my mom will definitely like you."
Xiao Xinxin was a little reluctant to leave this time. Hu Zi, whom she had just met, had disappeared without a trace, and her panic resurfaced. She followed Xiao Hua, but kept looking back every few steps.
Xiaohua is thoughtful and speaks softly.
"Little sister, don't be afraid. I'll take you to my house. There's some good food at my house. Sister Jian gave it to me. I'll give it to you and bring it back to you later."
Don't worry, if you don't come back, Sister Jane will come to pick you up.
The name "Sister Jane" did have some effect, putting the little one at ease.
Really?
Little Flower touched her tiny hand, not daring to use too much force.
"Really, really, aren't you cold? These are my clothes from when I was little. I'll ask my mom to look for something thicker. It's getting cold."
With the old lady and Sun Xiang by her side, and being a pure country girl, Xiao Hua already knows everything she should learn, but her family just can't bear to part with her.
Xiaohua spoke naturally, and Xiaodouding quickly lowered his guard. When they arrived at the Liu family's door, the two children were already chattering away.
As soon as she pushed open the door, Xiaohua called out.
"Grandma, Mom, look who's here!"
This loud shout not only alerted the family members, but also frightened the little boy, who hid behind Xiaohua.
"Hua, why are you back? Weren't you going to play with Xiao Jian? Did you see that child?"
"Mom, why don't we go take a look later? Tiger can't seem to learn to speak properly."
"Okay, let's go take a look after we're done. Whether it's a girl or a boy, that girl's family probably hasn't prepared anything."
Xiaohua waited for a while, but then the mother and daughter started arguing, which made her angry, so she shouted again.
"Grandma, look, who is this?"
The old lady walked out with a smile.
"Coming, coming! What are you shouting for? What's your little sister Jian doing at home? Why didn't you help her with anything? Oh dear!"
As he spoke, he walked up to her, and seeing the little head peeking out from behind his granddaughter, he understood perfectly well.
"You brought other people's children back? Come inside, come inside, let Grandma see them."
The old lady spoke loudly, but her tone was very gentle. Little Xinxin clung to Xiaohua to look at her and didn't pull away.
The little flower was very happy.
"Grandma, isn't the little girl pretty?"
Then he turned around and showed it off to his friends.
"This is my grandma, she's so kind to me."
Little Xinxin blinked her eyes, "It's so good, so good, how good is it?"
The old lady grasped at just one word.
"Little sister? It really is a little girl? Sit down quickly, let Grandma take a look."
There aren't many girls younger than Xiaohua around, and now that she's an older sister, she's even puffed out her chest.
"Grandma, is there any more of the delicious food that Sister Jane gave us?"
Upon seeing this, she knew she wanted to share it with her friends, and the old lady didn't stop her, smiling as she pointed out the place.
"It's still in that little box on the counter. Go get it yourself."
The snacks were given to us simply, but the two kids were reluctant to eat them. They kept them and would only take a small bite when they were craving something.
Xiao Hua climbed onto the wardrobe using a stool, quickly climbed down with the box in her hands, and skipped back to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Come here, look! These were all given to me by Sister Jian. I haven't eaten them all! This is peach shortbread, this is sponge cake..."
The old lady recognized the clothes on the child as belonging to her granddaughter when she was little.
"Mom, it really is a little girl! How come she's so pretty?"
