Chapter 120 Why wasn’t I the one who picked Xingxing back?

After school, the boys were very happy to see Xingxing and their mother coming over.

Fan Xingru, who has a good relationship with the brothers, is also there.

When Fan Xingru saw Xingxing, her eyes lit up and she called her "Sister Xingxing" in a somewhat reserved manner.

The youngest, Gui Ge'er, was muttering, "She's my sister, not your sister."

Fan Xingru said seriously: "In our relationship, your sister is my sister, it makes sense."

Gui Ge'er was speechless.

Xingxing had met the brother and sister from the Fan family before, and knew that they were good people, so she was not shy and replied with a sweet smile, "Brother Fan."

Fan Xingru didn't say anything, but from her excited eyes and eyebrows, it could be seen that she was obviously very happy.

Several guys went to try on clothes. Fan Xingru was probably waiting for the guys to come out so that they could do their homework together. She was standing in the shop leaning against the counter, bored.

Xingxing lowered her head and played with the little clay figurines that Li Chunhua bought for her at the door of the shop, and she was having a lot of fun.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at Fan Xingru, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Brother Fan, is there something wrong?"

Fan Xingru blushed. She didn't expect that she was staring at Xingxing in a daze and was caught by Xingxing.

"Hey," Fan Xingru retracted his gaze, and the boy looked straight ahead, calm and composed, "It's nothing, I just think the clay figure in your hand is nice."

Xing Xing nodded and simply believed what Fan Xingru said. She held up the clay figurine in her hand and said, "Brother Fan, if you like, Xing Xing will let you play with it for a while."

Fan Xingru: “…”

Although he was very moved, as a teenager, he didn't need to play with clay figures...

The clothes made by Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng were very fitted, and the teenagers from the Yu family had no problem wearing them when they tried them on.

Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng planned to take Xingxing home.

Coincidentally, Fan Xingru's sister, Fan Pingfang, also came to pick up Fan Xingru. When she saw Xingxing, she remembered something and smiled brightly, saying that she and her sisters were going to go on a trip to the suburbs in a few days: "... I heard that the maple leaves there are as red as fire, very beautiful. It seems to be near your village. Are you free then? I'll pick you up and we can go play together?"

It is obvious that Fan Pingfang likes Xingxing very much.

Xingxing tilted her head and thought about it.

Sister Fan was talking about Hongfenggou, which is on the mountain adjacent to Wuming Taoist Temple.

When I passed by today, I indeed saw the fiery red maple trees there, which were very beautiful.

I want to go!

Xingxing looked at Li Chunhua with some anticipation.

Grandma once said that if anything happens outside, we should ask my aunt to take charge.

When Li Chunhua saw her little niece's eyes sparkling when she looked at her, she almost imprinted the words "I want to go" in her eyes.

As an aunt who dotes on her niece, Li Chunhua responded quickly: "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Fan."

Xingxing smiled happily and curled her eyes.

Fan Pingfang also smiled and said, "What's the problem? Xingxing is so well behaved."

That's how it's settled.

It gets dark early in winter, so Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng did not delay any longer and held Xingxing's hand as they prepared to return to Nantuo Village.

As for the maid Shuangyun, after applying medicine on her acne, she could go back with them.

Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofen were both quite excited.

Maid, there is actually a maid in the house!

Originally, the two of them had bought some things from the county town, and they were both eager to try the feeling of being served by a maid, so they wanted Shuangyun to help carry the things.

But Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng looked at Shuangyun again and again and felt that she looked really pitiful. They did not feel comfortable ordering her around, so they just carried the baby themselves and walked briskly in front.

Shuangyun followed Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng somewhat awkwardly.

When they returned to Nantuo Village, it was already dusk, but Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng looked at each other and they both slowed down their pace at the same time.

When someone in the village sees this person, they will ask curiously, "Who is this?"

Bai Xiaofeng said "Oh my!" and laughed, "Who else could it be? Our newly bought maid."

Therefore, within a day, many villagers knew that the Yu family was so powerful that they even had a maid!

Li Chunhua and Bai Xiaofeng walked with a cheerful look in the eyes of everyone.

Seeing Xingxing being held in Li Chunhua's arms and going back to Yu's house with Li Chunhua and the others, the villagers couldn't help but whisper, "Look, Xingxing has been at the Yu's house for less than a year, and the Yu's family has changed a lot! They eat better and wear better clothes. They sent several boys to study in the county, and opened a shop in the county. Now they even use maids!"

"That's right! Xingxing is really a lucky star! I'm so jealous of her. Why wasn't I the one who picked Xingxing up?"

"Bah, look at what you said. It hadn't rained yet, and the harvest from the fields was uncertain. Who wouldn't worry about the next meal after the last one? Can you be as courageous as Aunt Wei and save Xingxing?"

"Tsk, so it's the Yu family that deserves to be rich!"

When she returned to Yu's house, Li Chunhua couldn't wait to shout "Dad, Mom" ​​loudly.

Mrs. Wei came out of the house after lifting the curtain. Seeing that Li Chunhua, Xingxing, who was holding her child, and Bai Xiaofeng were all fine, she breathed a sigh of relief and said unhappily, "My eldest daughter-in-law, you were calling me so urgently. I thought something had happened."

Li Chunhua motioned Shuangyun to come forward and asked excitedly: "Mom, do you know who this is?"

Only then did Mrs. Wei realize that there was one more person coming back.

She looked at the double clouds in the twilight: "...This is..."

While they were talking, Su Rouer also came out from the third room.

She had been seriously ill before, and although she had recovered a little now, she still looked weak and frail, like a willow in the wind.

Su Rouer coughed twice and asked Li Chunhua: "Sister-in-law, you are back from the county. How is my husband?"

Li Chunhua smiled and said, "Third brother looks good. Business in the store is booming and he is very busy."

When Su Rouer heard this, she felt relieved and a little distressed.

At this moment, she also noticed that there was a strange girl in the yard. She paused and said, "Who is this..."

Li Chunhua introduced her excitedly: "This is the maid my third brother bought - her name is Shuangyun!"

Mrs. Wei never thought that she would have a need for a maid in her lifetime, but after looking at Shuangyun, she quickly accepted it.

But Su Rouer felt a little awkward.

She pursed her lips tightly and looked Shuangyun up and down.

Why did Brother Bao buy her as a maid?

When the first and second wives heard about this, they came out and looked at Shuangyun in surprise.

Shuangyun shrank back at the sight of everyone's stares. She stood there at a loss, not knowing what to say.

Finally, it was Mrs. Wei who made the final decision and asked Shuangyun to clean up the room in the corner of the yard where miscellaneous items were stored. She would live there from now on.
