Chapter 269: The Girl-Dazzling Maniac
So, the news that Fubao stood up quickly spread throughout the Xu family.
Old Mrs. Xu, who was preparing lunch with her daughters-in-law in the kitchen, just quit and ran off to see her precious daughter.
"Seventh Brother, by the way, what brings you here?"
After the family had been making a fuss for a while, Mr. Xu suddenly remembered that he had left Guan Laoqi aside.
"It's nothing serious, just those two fish!"
Guan Laoqi chuckled, "Before, the Taohua River was completely dry, and we caught all the big fish in the river. Whether it was upstream or downstream, it was the same."
"But today, some people saw a lot of big fish in the river."
"I bought these two by the river."
"Brother Xu, tell me, is our Peach Blossom River connected to some underground river?"
When Guan Laoqi asked this question, Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of the fish spring in the mountains.
The fish in the fish spring are the fish that emerge from the underground river.
Now, Guan Laoqi said that there are fish in Taohua River again. Does that mean there is movement at Yuquan again?
"Seventh Brother, this is really possible."
Mr. Xu did not deliberately deny Guan Laoqi's speculation because of the Yuquan incident.
After all, even guessing that the Taohua River was connected to the underground river was useless. The Taohua River was so long, and there were at least eighty water holes along the way. Who knew which one connected to the underground river?
What's more, Taohua River is now full of water again.
It is even more impossible to explore the location of the underground river.
"Oh, if only I had known about the underground river earlier!"
Guan Laoqi sighed for a long time.
If the underground river had been found, this drought would not have ended in almost no harvest.
Fortunately, they dug a well and planted sweet potato seedlings during the drought. With the relief grain distributed by the imperial court, although life this year was not easy, at least they would not starve.
What's more, they have replanted a crop now. As long as there are no more unexpected problems, they will still have a good harvest in the fall.
"Now that I know, it will be useful when there's a drought next time."
Old Master Xu casually comforted Guan Laoqi with a few words.
Guan Laoqi nodded and didn't say anything more. After all, this year's drought was over.
…
Guan Laoqi had lunch at Old Xu's house and had two drinks with Old Master Xu. When he left, he was a little drunk.
The old wine from Old Xu's family is extremely strong.
After lunch, Boss Xu drove a horse-drawn carriage with 300 kilograms of millet and headed towards the village where his father-in-law lived.
Xu Laoer wanted to take a nap, but his father kicked him twice and told him to go to the mountains to see what was happening at Yuquan.
Yuquan made a lot of money for the Xu family.
Later, only small fish fry were left in Yuquan.
Old Master Xu and Boss Xu had originally planned to wait until their family had a pond and bring the fish fry back to raise them, but who could have imagined that a severe drought would strike.
During this process, no one thought of going to the Yuquan Spring to take a look.
The conversation that Guan Laoqi had today reminded Mr. Xu of Yuquan, so he naturally sent Xu Laoer to check out the situation.
As for Mr. Xu, he was in no mood to visit Yuquan. His entire attention was on his precious daughter.
Before they even noticed, their daughter could stand up, two or three months earlier than other children!
Thinking of Fubao's magic, Mr. Xu finally understood why Uncle Lu refused to accept him as his disciple and insisted that Fubao become his grand-disciple before he would accept him as his disciple.
The difference in bones is too obvious!
Thinking of this, Old Master Xu counted on his fingers and found that Uncle Lu had exceeded the return time he said by more than two days.
After teaching me the breathing method, Uncle Lu left Lingshui Village on the pretext of attending to some personal matters, saying that he would be back in three days at most.
But now, it’s been more than five days!
"Is there anything wrong?"
Mr. Xu was a little uneasy.
Although he didn't have much contact time with Uncle Lu, and his title as a so-called registered disciple was somewhat untrue, but Old Master Xu really treated Uncle Lu as a disciple.
Old Master Xu thought about it for a while and decided to wait for Old Master Xu to come back and then ask him to go to the county town to tell his sworn fourth brother about Uncle Lu's disappearance.
After all, Uncle Lu came to his house because of Zuo Qiu.
…
Putting his thoughts aside for the moment, Mr. Xu looked at his precious daughter who was trying hard to stand up again.
Unfortunately, Fubao's efforts again were ineffective.
In the end, Fubao could only sit down depressed and start practicing angrily.
That’s right, it’s cultivation.
After several failures, Fubao carefully recalled how she stood up at noon, and finally determined that she needed to practice, because she was practicing before she stood up for the first time.
"My girl, what are you doing——"
When Mr. Xu saw Fubao's posture, he was stunned for a moment.
This posture and this breathing method are clearly the breathing method taught to him by Uncle Lu.
Fubao doesn't care whether her father is shocked or not. She is just a little kid now, and she learns whatever she sees and says whatever she hears.
The saying "parrots imitate what others hear" refers to little kids like her.
So, her image now is not weird at all.
A quarter of an hour later, Fubao stopped practicing and tried to stand up again.
Then, she really stood up again.
Compared to the first time she stood up, she was obviously much more stable this time.
“Chuckle…”
Confirming that his discovery was correct, Fubao couldn't help but laugh triumphantly. His laughter quickly attracted Mrs. Xu, who was chatting with someone outside, to come in.
This time, Old Mrs. Xu finally saw Fubao standing.
"hug!"
Seeing his mother coming out, Fubao waved decisively.
"Oh my, my precious daughter, you are so amazing!"
Old Mrs. Xu took two steps forward, quickly picked up Fubao, and kissed her on the face again and again.
Fubao was not willing to be outdone and responded with a slap.
Maybe it’s the nature of mother and daughter, Fubao really likes the feeling of being held in her mother’s arms. It’s very comfortable and warm.
In this respect, my dad is quite lacking.
But soon, Fubao realized that he had made a mistake.
Her mother actually carried her out of the house and told everyone she met that she could stand up. She wished everyone would come to praise her precious daughter for being so great.
For a long time, Fubao thought that only his father was a crazy maniac who showed off his daughters, but he didn't expect that his own mother was also like this.
This really proves the saying that people from the same family tend to be similar.
My biological mother and my biological father are the same!
