"Mom, where's Dad?" Song was sitting in the yard picking crab meat.
"Your father went out to pick river gourds before dawn." Song looked at her daughter. She wanted to get closer but was afraid. After what the head of the household told her last night, she always felt that her daughter was a fairy and she was a mortal. If she got close to her, it would seem like she was defiling her.
But now that the couple knows it, let it go. The little girl is too young and her mouth is not shut. No, even if it's not small, she can't know about it. The more people know about it, the more danger Xiaoyu will be in. The head of the family said that even nobles in the capital may not have this treasure, and my daughter will be envied by many people.
Zhao Xiaoyu pulled Song intimately, "Mom, is breakfast ready?"
"You're hungry. I made some porridge and some pancakes. They're still warm. I'll serve you some."
"No need, I can do it myself. Don't be so nervous. Earn money slowly. Health is the most important. Is Li Xi still sleeping?" So pitiful. Zhao Laosan is not a human being. He doesn't let go of child laborers, no matter how old they are.
"Well! She slept too late last night. No matter what, she can't sleep too late today."
"Yes, she is still growing and can't stay up late."
"the same as you."
Zhao Xiaoyu looked down at her own small body. It was quite small.
Except for Zhao Dashu who went out to pick crabs, the rest of the family stayed at home, busy peeling, washing and steaming crabs.
Two days later.
“Woof woof woof…”
A mule cart arrived at the door. "Excuse me, is this Zhao Dashu's house?"
The people inside quickly cleared the things on the table and stuffed all the river gourds, washed or not, into an empty room.
“Squeak!”
"Little Second Brother!"
Zhao Xiaoyu knew this man. He had moved bamboo shoots to Uncle Shunzi's house several times before. It seemed that he was a special deliveryman to various restaurants.
The shopkeeper stuck his head out of the carriage and said, "Finally I found you." Your residence is really remote, and he finally found you after asking Liu Shunzi's family.
"Boss?" Zhao Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat. His father, who had gone out to pick crabs, was about to come back.
"Boss, are you looking for my father? He is out of town and I am going out to look for him now. Mother, please bring a bowl of hot water to the boss and my second brother." After saying that, he rushed out of the house.
The shopkeeper wanted to say that it would be okay for him to wait, but it was too late.
Song looked at her daughter running out of the room, and then looked at the shopkeeper nervously, because she didn't know how to entertain an important guest.
"Please sit down and I'll bring you some water."
Xiao Liqi stood by and watched them without saying anything.
Shopkeeper: ...
In the mud, Zhao Dashu picked up a full basket and was about to go home.
"Dad, Dad, the shopkeeper is here! The river gourd cannot be brought to the Xi family."
Zhao Dashu is in a mess, what should he do? Should he be knocked down?
"Dad, over there, behind the rock, keep an eye on the people. I'll capture them and then go home."
"Ai!"
Behind the big rock, the father and daughter looked left and right like thieves. After making sure that there was no one around, Zhao Xiaoyu put the things into the space.
"Boss, you are here. How come you have time to come and play with me?"
