The man rolled his eyes impatiently. "No need to rush me! It's not the agreed time yet. Go away, I have things to take care of!"
The old man's face froze for a moment, but he didn't say much. He just looked at him twice and turned away.
......
Early in the morning, Jiang Xinian got up early with Xiao Lingdang and the others to practice morning exercises, which was rare.
His movements were vigorous and powerful, and it was impossible to tell that he was a person who had just been poisoned and seriously ill. Even Xu Guling and the others could not help but be surprised.
"Brother, why do I feel like something's wrong with you? I've never seen you so energetic before. How come after being poisoned, you look even more energetic?"
Xiao Lingling, who was doing morning exercises, froze for a moment.
Jiang Xinian just laughed and said, "No, no, I just suffered a great loss in martial arts. After this loss, of course I have to intensify my training. This kind of sin is enough once."
Xu Guling just thought that this time he was irritated and did not investigate further.
But Jiang Xinian himself knew best that his health condition was much better than before he was poisoned.
All the old injuries and lesions from many years ago have disappeared.
Although he didn't know how the little bell did it, he knew very well that all of this must be related to the little bell.
However, this kind of thing would be a very important secret to anyone, so he didn't intend to ask more questions.
When Xiao Lingling saw that he didn't even look at her, she felt relieved.
With Jiang Xinian, Deng Rong's illness was quickly cured. She originally thought it would take more than a month, but now she was completely cured in just over twenty days.
Xiao Lingdang found a reason to take her out to play, and after asking for her opinion, she sent her to the space to reunite with Deng Zhuo.
Now, Deng Zhuo is even more motivated and busy in his space every day.
After that, Xiao Lingling sent many more tools for work.
So now the space in Xiao Lingling is no longer empty as before, but two small courtyards have been built along the foot of the distant mountain.
The courtyards are about the same size, and the rooms are all built with wood selected directly from the mountains. Since there is only one person, the speed is definitely much slower, but the quality is very good.
Xiao Lingling also went to the town several times to buy some daily necessities and sent them in. Since then, the father and daughter have officially settled down in this space.
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Although Little Bell is still chubby and cute, she has grown a lot taller. Well, at least she still has one head...
Although it is still a little shorter than other six-year-old children, it is already very good.
Little Bell stood in front of the pillar, looking at the mark she had carved last month, her face wrinkled.
"Grandma, why, why is it that it's been a month and I haven't grown at all..."
Mrs. Zhao was also a little confused. Logically, her granddaughter had a good diet, practiced martial arts, and was active, so why wasn't her weight increasing?
But she couldn't say that to Xiao Lingling, so she quickly found an excuse.
"Oh, this is normal. Some children grow up early, some grow up late! Don't worry, you still have many years to grow. Maybe you will grow faster later."
Xiao Lingling used to believe it, but after hearing such words so many times, she no longer believes it.
He sat dejectedly on the steps, his chin in his hands, looking so sad.
Qiaomei had just finished washing and hung the clothes out to dry. Seeing her like this, she came over and said, "Miss, what's wrong? Why do you look so depressed and unhappy?"
Xiao Lingling felt even sadder when she saw Qiaomei, who was still a head taller than her.
"Sister Qiaomei, do you think I will really become a short and fat melon?"
A smile flashed in Qiaomei's eyes. "How could that be? Miss, don't listen to Lily's nonsense. She just envies your good looks and is deliberately trying to piss you off!"
Xiao Lingling was obviously really scared. She was not tall before her reincarnation, and she was really worried.
"But Lily is indeed taller than me, and she's obviously three months younger than me."
Lily is a new family that moved to Huaxiang County. They also opened a private restaurant that was passed down from their ancestors. The two families can be said to be in a competitive relationship.
In the past three years, the herbal medicine restaurant has become more and more prosperous, and has even opened branches in the provincial capital.
Lily's family's private dishes were doing very average business in Huaxiang County, so Lily naturally felt hostile towards the herbal medicine restaurant which was doing a booming business.
Although adults don't dare to provoke Xiao Lingling, the child doesn't understand that and tends to act recklessly.
Lily often used her height advantage to mock Xiao Lingling.
Yesterday, when Xiao Lingdang went to the store to deliver clothes to her father and mother, she was caught by Lily, who started to criticize her indirectly.
Look, Xiao Lingling started to feel unhappy as soon as she came back. It has been two days and she still hasn't recovered.
Lin Ran was clacking away on his abacus in the study, checking and settling the account books of the four stores in his family from last month.
That’s right, four stores.
After these three years, both the wood shop and the herbal medicine restaurant opened branches in the city.
Lin Ran studied with Huo Qiuyue for a year. He was not stupid and learned very quickly. In fact, if he was willing to take the exam, he would not be able to pass the exam as a scholar, but he would definitely pass the exam as a student.
However, he was really not interested in the imperial examination, so Huo Qiuyue recommended him a very good accountant and he studied there for half a year.
From then on, he was in charge of managing the account books of all the Lin family stores, and there had never been any mistakes.
Lin Ran finished calculating and summarizing the four account books in just over an hour. He stretched and came out to relax.
As soon as I went out, I saw the little bell sitting at the door.
He looked at Qiaomei in confusion, and Qiaomei just shrugged at him.
Lin Ran was helpless and picked up Xiao Lingling. "Hey, who made our princess unhappy? Tell my third brother, and he will beat him up!"
Little Bell subconsciously hugged his neck and cried coquettishly, "Third brother, why haven't I grown any taller this month?"
Lin Ran found it funny. "Isn't this normal? You often don't grow for a month, but maybe it will grow next month?"
Little Bell got angry and immediately clenched her fist and hit him in the chest.
Although Lin Ran had grown taller, he had never practiced martial arts before, so his small body was no match for Xiao Lingling's punch. He staggered and his back hit the wall, gasping in pain.
"Hiss~~~~Little Bell! You're trying to murder your brother! I can't withstand your iron fist. Two more hits and my ribs will break!"
Little Bell gave him a disdainful look, exerted force with her legs, and jumped out of his arms with a plop.
"Tsk! Third brother, you're too weak. No wonder Lily said you're all show and no substance! I'm going to find second brother!"
