Chapter 175 Your family is so nice

The next morning, Shuangyun and Shuanghe fetched some hot water and asked the woman to wash her face. They then found some of their old clothes and gave them to the woman to wear. Then they happily took the woman to find Mrs. Wei.

"Look, old lady, she is still a pretty girl." Shuangyun and Shuanghe pulled the girl to show her to Mrs. Wei.

When Mrs. Wei saw this, she saw that the woman was shivering and tugging at her clothes awkwardly, and she didn't know what to say.

She is indeed quite pretty.

"Don't be afraid, young lady. Where are you from?" Mrs. Wei asked kindly.

Who would have thought that after hearing this question, the woman's eyes turned red and she knelt down in front of Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei couldn't help but feel her eyebrows twitch.

Shuang He quickly pulled the woman up and said, "Hey, sister, our old lady doesn't like people kneeling to her. I know you are grateful to her for saving your life, but we don't care about this. Just remember it in your heart."

The woman was startled, and after glancing at Mrs. Wei's face, she nodded timidly, her voice hoarse, "I, I understand."

The woman had a thick accent and was obviously not a local.

Fortunately, although the accent is strange, it is not difficult to understand.

Mrs. Wei felt sorry for the girl because she had frightened her with a frown, so she tried to soften her tone: "... Girl, I don't mean anything else. It's just that we are all from the same poor family, so stop kneeling here and there. Tell me, where are you from? Why did you fall down on the road?"

The woman's eyes were red, and she wiped her tears and said, "I am from Qingcheng... I couldn't make it any longer, so I wanted to come and live with my aunt since the beginning of the year... But I was captured by bandits and taken to the mountains. I finally managed to escape during the chaos when the government was suppressing the bandits, but I had nothing to eat or drink, and I almost died..."

Everyone sighed for a while after listening to this and was somewhat moved.

Adults know what happens when a woman is taken up the mountain by mountain bandits.

His life story is indeed tragic.

Mrs. Wei also felt that the woman was very pitiful, so she spoke in a gentler tone: "...Then where is your aunt's house? I'll let my third son take you there."

Yu Sanbao nodded on the side.

The woman looked at Yu Sanbao hesitantly: "It's you..."

She said in a hoarse voice: "I remember you. You saved me."

Yu Sanbao said with a "tsk". "It wasn't me who saved you, it was you who insisted on grabbing my clothes."

The woman seemed a little embarrassed and lowered her head.

"You haven't told me where your aunt's house is. Is it close to here?" Yu Sanbao asked.

The woman shook her head, her voice hoarse and sad: "...My aunt's family also suffered a disaster and moved away. I don't know where they went."

The Yu family looked at each other in bewilderment.

Mrs. Wei asked again, "Where did you live originally? If not, we can find a way to send you back. The drought is gone and the famine has improved a lot. If you go back to your previous residence and cultivate the land, you will be able to survive."

The woman burst into tears this time.

She originally spoke with a strong accent from other places, and when she cried and sobbed, it took Mrs. Wei and the others a while to figure out what she was saying.

It turned out that her father passed away early, and she and her mother were left alone in her family. They originally had an acre of thin land to barely make ends meet, but the clan took the acre of thin land back on the grounds that her family had no heir.

She and her mother had no choice but to run away to seek refuge with her aunt.

As a result, before she could reach her aunt's house, her mother died of illness on the way.

The Yu family looked at each other in bewilderment.

This girl has nowhere to go.

The girl probably knew her situation. She cried for a while, then knelt down in front of Mrs. Wei again, "Old Madam, I know you have a kind heart. Please take me in. I am very capable and can do anything..."

Mrs. Wei had a headache: "Get up first, don't kneel before me. This is not easy to do..."

There are already two maids in the family.

Shuanghe helps run the store in the town and takes care of four grandchildren who are studying. Shuangyun helps out at home and does some housework.

She really couldn't think of where else there was a need for help.

Seeing that Mrs. Wei was hesitant, the girl cried even louder. She kowtowed to Mrs. Wei again and again, "Old Madam, please be kind. I really have nowhere to go..."

Mrs. Wei had a more and more headache: "Hey, hey, hey, don't kneel down to me... Shuanghe and Shuangyun, help her up quickly."

Shuang He and Shuang Yun hurriedly picked up the girl, one on each side.

The girl was probably still weak, and she cried too sadly, her body swayed, her head tilted, and she fainted.

Shuangyun and Shuanghe quickly helped her onto the kang.

Mrs. Wei, this is such a headache.

When they rescued Xingxing, she had nowhere to go, so they could have raised her. But now she's such a grown-up girl, and the Yu family has no shortage of people, so how could they raise her?

It was Yu Sanbao who came up with a plan: "...Since she says she can do anything, why don't I find a wealthy family in the county and let her work as a maid. Our family doesn't lack maids, so why not find a family that does?"

This is a good idea. Mrs. Wei smiled and nodded.

After dinner, everyone went their separate ways and the girl slowly woke up.

Shuang He was very enthusiastic and said to her, "I've left some food for you in the kitchen. It's still hot."

The girl thanked Shuanghe, but her brows were still filled with worry.

Shuang He was kind-hearted and could not wait to tell her, "You don't have to worry too much. Although our family is not short of people, Third Master has thought of a way for you. Third Master is very powerful and knows many people from wealthy families. When the time comes, we can find a family that is short of maids for you."

The girl thought for a long time, then nodded slowly.

Shuang He happily went to get her food.

When the girl saw the food, she didn't eat as voraciously as she did last night when she just woke up, but she ate very quickly.

Shuang He took some needlework and sat beside the girl, watching her eat while she did her needlework.

She had been sewing a few stitches when she saw Xingxing coming over. She was standing by the kang, watching the girl eat with curiosity.

"Sister, my name is Xingxing, what's your name?" Xingxing asked curiously.

The girl didn't bother to reply to Xing Xing's words. She ate the whole brown rice cake in her hand and then replied, "...My name is Yang Xiangdie."

Xing Xing readily changed her words and said, "Sister Xiangdie."

Yang Xiangdie responded and buried her head in eating again.

Xingxing watched for a while and saw that Sister Xiangdie was concentrating on eating, so she ran out to play.

"The cakes are so delicious..." Yang Xiangdie ate two brown rice cakes and wanted to eat more, but Shuanghe stopped her: "Xiangdie, you will get hurt if you eat more."

Yang Xiangdie's eyes never left the bamboo basket where the cakes were placed. After a while, she licked her lips and murmured, "Your family is so nice..."
