Chapter 69 Is she herding sheep, or is she being herded by sheep?
Below the mountain were rows of houses, surrounded by fields, one after another, as if someone had cut them out.
The thousand-year-old peach tree at the entrance of Tangjia Village sways in the wind, a truly beautiful sight.
Little Su Bao was completely absorbed in watching it.
This will be my home from now on!
She looked up, pursed her lips, and gave a sweet smile.
Tang Qi couldn't help but smile as he looked at Xiao Su Bao's smile.
He wondered if it was just his imagination, but Xiao Su Bao seemed to have changed a little.
Tang Qizhen led Xiao Subao and the others from one end of the village to the other.
"Uncle, sigh, I accidentally caught a tiny bit of prey today..."
"Oh dear, I'm no good at this. I'm not as good as my master!"
"Look how clever this goat is; it even knows how to carry people. Let's not kill it for now and keep it to produce milk!"
"Haha, I'm just lucky..."
"Our little Su Bao can even catch a pheasant..."
As a result, everyone in the village knew that the Tang family's fortunes had changed.
The combination of these two events made them look at Xiao Su Bao with a hint of respect.
"Enough already!" Tang Cheng had just returned from the fields and glared at his second brother with annoyance at his smug look.
When Tang Qi saw his elder brother, he immediately pulled the goat over and looked obedient.
"Big brother, I caught my prey!" He excitedly approached Tang Cheng, his eyes crinkling with laughter.
Tang Cheng's lips twitched slightly, but he nodded in the end, reached out, and took Xiao Su Bao off the sheep.
Just take it off!
The baby's body was almost stiff!
I don't know what to do with my hands and feet...
"Can't you stop being so reckless? Look how scared you've made my little sister!" Tang Cheng glared at Tang Qi.
He held the little bundle of joy, feeling a pang of heartache. Even his second child wasn't as steady as his fourth...
Speaking of this, Tang Cheng said, "By the way, I discussed the irrigation canal with the villagers, and we've decided to bring one from the east, near our village's fields!"
In any case, it's best not to get close to Zhao Family Village.
Xiao Su Bao recovered and listened to Tang Cheng's words quite seriously.
But she couldn't understand a word of it!
When everyone returned home, Qian had just finished feeding the chickens and ducks. Seeing them come back, she put down the basin she was carrying and came out.
"Huh, what's wrong with this sheep?" Qian asked, looking at the ewe with surprise.
"I caught it!" Tang Qi said proudly.
Qian looked surprised, but subconsciously glanced at Xiao Su Bao beside her.
Little Su Bao was confused, but when she saw her mother looking at her, the little bundle of milk immediately showed a sweet smile.
Madam Qian took the baby from her and asked gently, "What's wrong? Were you frightened when you went out with your second brother?"
Little Su Bao quickly shook her head and said to Madam Qian, "No, Second Brother is very, very good, and he's good to Su Bao too!"
Tang Qi breathed a sigh of relief; this little girl was indeed considerate.
I wish I had a daughter!
"Mom, my second brother and I found lots of red berries for you to eat..." Little Su Bao said happily.
She also handed the pheasant from her waist to Ms. Qian.
"Su Bao also caught a pheasant for Mom to nourish her body!" Little Su Bao looked at Qian Shi and spoke softly.
Her eyes were filled with the thought, "I want to be good to you."
Madam Qian's heart softened at her cute appearance.
He gave the little baby a couple of big kisses on the cheek.
“Look how good your sister is! If you ever dare to treat her badly, see how I deal with you!” Madam Qian glared at her sons and said with a hint of warning.
Before Tang Cheng and Tang Qi could speak, Wang Xiuer immediately emerged from the kitchen with a kitchen knife.
She glared fiercely at her husband.
She gave her older brother another unfriendly look...
Forget it, my older brother is fierce, I can't beat him!
But my own man can...
"Mother, who mistreated my daughter... no, my sister! I'll beat him to death!" Wang Xiuer glared fiercely at Tang Qi!
This wife of mine is so fierce!
Tang Qi was speechless. When did he ever say something wrong about the little milk ball?
Is my wife going to take this opportunity to bully me?
The Qian family...
"Alright, hurry up and cook. How come your ears are so sharp!" Madam Qian glared at her second daughter-in-law with annoyance.
After scolding her two sons, Madam Qian finally looked at the two sheep.
The ewe seemed to have a kind of bloodline suppression when facing Qian.
“This goat has milk, so we don’t have to kill it. We can keep it to give the children goat milk!” Madam Qian said with a wave of her hand.
In their village, some people used to catch goats, and some people used to raise them.
Mr. Qian naturally knew this.
Little Su Bao's eyes lit up, and she carefully tugged at Qian Shi's clothes with her little hand.
"Mom, can I feed the sheep? I don't know how, but I can learn!" Little Su Bao looked at Qian Shi expectantly.
This ewe is much bigger than the little lamb!
Is she herding sheep, or is she being herded by sheep?
The Qian family was about to refuse.
After all, they have so many sons in their family, and whoever goes out can always pick some weeds or take them out for a walk.
Even if the children are dying, they still have so many adults, don't they?
Little Su Bao's hands are so small, yet already so rough. Qian Shi didn't want her to suffer so much.
"No..." Qian's words of refusal were on the tip of her tongue.
But looking at Xiao Su Bao's expectant eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Little Su Bao could naturally sense Qian's rejection.
The little bundle of milk lowered her head, looking a little disappointed, but only for a moment before she looked up and said with a smile, "It's okay, Little Su Bao can feed the chickens!"
The Qian family...
This child is a bit sensitive. He's just come to our home and is probably still afraid of being abandoned!
Thinking of this, Qian reached out and patted the little dumpling's head.
“It’s not impossible, but I’m afraid it will be too hard for you to do it alone. You can take care of the lambs, and the ewes will have their mothers, as well as your brothers and nephews, okay?” Madam Qian had come up with a compromise.
As expected, upon hearing what Qian said, Su Bao immediately nodded and revealed a sweet smile.
When Ms. Qian saw the little dumpling's smile, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, Mom, don't worry, Little Su Bao will definitely raise the lamb to be plump and healthy!" Little Su Bao said excitedly.
Ms. Qian nodded with great trust, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Take your time!
The child is still young; he can always be well-mannered.
With this in mind, Qian began to think about studying.
All the children in the Tang family are required to study. Tang Dabao, Tang Erbao, and even Tang Sanbao have all started their education.
However, they were all at home.
Should our little one also stay home for early childhood education?
Sending the child to the county town is definitely not an option; the child is too young, and she wouldn't feel comfortable with that.
If I go with them, things at home will be difficult to manage.
The second son's wife is a bit of a shrew, while the eldest son's wife is virtuous, but her health isn't very good!
Girls still need to study, and Xiao Su Bao needs to study even more. This child is the hope of the Tang family and Tangjia Village.
As she was thinking about this, a commotion arose at the door.
"Mr. Qian, hurry, something terrible has happened..."
