The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 213 A Promised Marriage
Besides the all-purpose water, nutrient solution, and gene repair agent, Xiao Ayu continued to extract more.

Those were fruits she had treasured and never shared with anyone else.

It was a variety that Tuanzi deliberately left in the space to nurture and improve for her.

The fruit, larger than her fist, each had nourishing properties that could never be found elsewhere.

Tuanzi had also told Xiao Ayu that these things must never be known to anyone else.

At first, Xiao Ayu was worried that her pocket was too small and she couldn't take out too many things, otherwise her brother Ayou would definitely be suspicious.

But as she slowly took them out, she thought about how her brother Ah-you was leaving and that she might not be able to eat these things for a long time, and she felt very distressed.

Before I knew it, I had taken out a huge pile.

In addition to the fruit, they also took a large pile of wheat, rice, and beans, filling a large stone table.

They finally took everything she had. Little Ayu sat on the chair, panting, still a little worried.

She kept saying, "Brother Ayou, you must be strong! Go home and spend time with your mother soon. Maybe if she's in a better mood, she'll feel better!"

She was talking to herself, unaware that Qin Huai's eyes had become very deep and unfathomable.

After a long while, Qin Huai finally spoke, "Have you shown these things to anyone else?"

Little Ayu wanted to say that her grandmother, mother, and grandfather all knew her.

Others probably don't know.

"What's wrong?" Little Ayu didn't know why Qin Huai asked that, so she asked him in return.

Qin Huai said, "You can't let others know about these things, and you can't show them to others."

Little Ayu muttered to herself, "I know, Grandma said that, but you are Brother Ayou, not someone else."

Qin Huai's expression softened slightly upon hearing this.

He had roughly guessed that these things were probably not of this world.

If that's the case, then Xiao Ayu's origins might be more complicated than he imagined.

However, Qin Huai also confirmed one thing: his illness was cured by these very things in front of him.

As for the grains that Xiao Ayu took out, many thoughts flashed through Qin Huai's mind in an instant.

He thought for a moment, then took out a piece of jade from his waist. The jade had a very intricate pattern, with a gold-inlaid jade design at the very center and the inconspicuous character "Qin".

"You've given me so many things, and I don't have anything to give you in return, so I'll just give you this," Qin Huai said. "It's nothing valuable; it's the wages for the people in my family."

Seeing Xiao Ayu's confused look, Qin Hua continued, "I don't know how long I'll be gone. There are still some servants at home. Since we have long-standing contracts, it's not worthwhile to just let them go. You can have them help look after the house, and sometimes you can have them do other things. This sign will make them listen to you. If they don't listen, you can deduct their wages."

The guard who heard this was speechless.

That's terrible, they'll deduct my wages.

Actually, Xiao Ayu isn't usually this generous. Ever since Tuanzi left, Xiao Ayu herself hasn't been willing to eat anything from her space.

She was afraid that if she ate too much, the fairy wouldn't come back.

However, she would be willing to give it to her brother, Ah-you.

Maybe in the future, Brother Ayou won't be able to eat these things anymore.

Xiao Ayu still remembers that when Qin Huai first went to the mountains with her, he accidentally vomited blood.

So Xiao Ayu gave her extra medicine. She didn't know which medicines were effective and which weren't; she just gave her whatever she had.

If Brother Ayou feels unwell at that time, he can eat it too.

As for what Qin Huai gave to Xiao Ayu, Xiao Ayu doesn't know what it represents.

I only vaguely knew that by holding that sign, I could get help from the uncles here.

Even Qin Huai himself didn't realize how important what he gave was.

Qin Huai was not really at ease with Xiao Ayu. She had a secret, which meant that she might lead an extraordinary life.

He knew that the old lady of the Wang family was a wise woman and would try her best to protect Xiao Ayu.

Qin Huai preferred to stay in Hujia Village or Nanhe Town rather than that cold, impersonal place.

But he had to leave. The lady's men said that if he didn't leave, he might cause trouble for the town.

Qin Huai also stated at the time that he was able to resolve the issue.

Later, the lady sent a letter containing only a single, simple sentence.

"With your current strength, how long can you protect her?"

These words made Qin Huai instantly realize that he was still too weak; otherwise, the people sent by the madam wouldn't have told her all the information about this place so early.

The lady was very busy, so busy that she didn't spend much time with her own son. It was a luxury to see her twice a year.

Qin Huai did not trust the lady, but he also knew that only if he left this place would the lady withdraw her people.

Since the lady won't pay attention, other unimportant people, those hiding behind the scenes, will naturally disperse as well.

"Brother Ayou, I will always wait for you and always remember you. Please don't forget me, okay?" Little Ayu was still a little worried before leaving.

Qin Huai: "Okay, I won't forget you."

He will probably never forget the little girl who made him want to talk more.

Little Ayu walked to the door and asked hesitantly, "Brother Ayou, how long will you be gone?"

Qin Huai: "I don't know, maybe one or two years, maybe seven or eight years, or maybe longer."

Just as the lady said, he must cultivate enough power; otherwise, he will always be under her wing and will never truly have the right to protect others.

Little Ayu counted on her fingers for a long time, but still couldn't figure out exactly how long it had been.

So she simply said, "If you're going to be gone for a long time, we won't be able to celebrate our birthdays together every year."

Qin Huai recalled the only bowl of longevity noodles he had ever eaten, which came from the simple and honest Old Wang family.

Although it was already the second day of his birthday, it was still very meaningful to him.

"Yes, we can't celebrate together anymore." Without Xiao Ayu, he didn't want to celebrate his birthday either; it didn't mean much to him.

Before Xiao Ayu could finish speaking, she put her two index fingers together, looking a little embarrassed.

"Then you must come when I get married!"

Clang! Something fell to the ground.

Xiao Ayu turned her head to look and saw someone flash by on the roof.

Oh dear, Uncle Chiding is so careless; he even managed to loosen the roof tiles while sitting on the roof.

Qin Huai glanced in that direction, but felt a little annoyed.

"You're still so young, what are you talking about getting married?"

Qin Huai was not happy at the thought of Xiao Ayu going to someone else's house.

He knew that once a woman got married, it would be difficult for her to go out, and at that time, she wouldn't come to visit him anymore, right?
"You shouldn't get married," Qin Huai said, pursing his lips.

Little Ayu exclaimed in surprise, "But, but, adults all have to get married. They say that if you don't get married when you grow up, no one will like you!"

Little Ayu is most afraid of being disliked by others.

"Then you wait for me," Qin Huai said. "Didn't we agree that we'd get married later?"

Little Ayu nodded: "Okay, then I'll wait until I'm 15."

All she knew was that the adults were whispering that girls should get married at 15.

It can't go on any longer.

"it is good."

The young boy had no idea that his simple remark to keep someone there had actually created an opportunity for him.

Less today, five updates tomorrow, and twenty-five updates in two days.
