The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 22 Fu Rui
Wang Wulang rubbed his eyes several times before he could make sure he wasn't seeing things. "Sister Ayu, where did you get all this?"

Little Ayu said, "I planted it!" She planted it herself, and she watered it every day!
Wang Wulang is only 10 years old this year. He is quick-witted, but not very fast.

He felt this was very mysterious, but he was sure he had to tell the adults.

"Let's go tell Grandma and ask her to come and see."

Wang Wulang's principle of handling matters is: when in doubt, consult an adult.

The Wang family was busy clearing the irrigation ditch. The collapsed little house was blocking the ditch, so they had to clear it as soon as possible.

Village Chief Hu has been extremely busy these past two days, as the matter in Shanyang Village has not been completely resolved and remains on his mind.

With so many things to do, he forgot that after the people he had rescued in the village got into a big fight with the people of Shanyang Village, he went to Shanyang Village again and then rushed back to leave.

Before leaving, he left a message for everyone, saying that he would never forget the kindness of saving their lives.

Village Chief Hu found Old Man Wang, took out a piece of jade from his pocket, and handed it to him: "Dewang, this is what that young man left for you. He asked you to give it to your Ayu. He remembers Ayu's life-saving grace, so take this as a token. If you take it to him in the future, he will definitely help you."

Old Wang waved his hands repeatedly: "This is unacceptable! This thing looks valuable. How can we farmers take such a thing!"

Old Wang still felt that although it was Ayu who saved the person, it was the villagers who truly saved the person. Ayu was just telling everyone that there was someone hiding in the cracks in the rocks, which didn't count as such a great favor.

Accepting this jade will only invite jealousy!

“What’s rightfully hers is rightfully hers. Grandpa and the others have agreed to this.” Village Chief Hu stuffed the things into Old Wang’s hands and said in a deep voice, “Although our Hu Family Village is poor, it’s not poor in spirit. This time, your Ayu has done a great service. It’s just that the village has suffered a great disaster recently, and everyone is busy surviving. It’s not that we don’t want to repay the kindness, it’s just that we don’t have the time.”

"This……"

“You’ve been here for over ten years, so you should know what our village is like. Ayu is a good child. You should take good care of her. If you can’t raise her, the village will help. This is what several village representatives told me last night. Everyone remembers Ayu’s kindness. She deserves this. No one with such a narrow mind would embezzle such a small amount.”

It was a ring-shaped jade pendant with no particular design. Apart from a small flower, there was nothing carved on it. The jade color wasn't particularly good, but it could be sold for three or five taels of silver in town.

If it were three to five hundred taels, people might become restless.

Old Wang didn't know what to say, when Old Mrs. Wang suddenly appeared out of nowhere, snatched it away, and held it in her hand.

"This should rightfully belong to our Ayu!" Old Mrs. Wang tapped the jade and said lightly, "Just this little thing, and it's worth saving a life? That person's life is really cheap!"

Village Chief Hu repeated what the man had said, only adding that the man considered it a token of his trust.

"Alright, alright, what kind of token is this? We don't even know the person's name or where they live. How are we supposed to find them? How are we supposed to keep our promise?" Old Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "Who are you trying to fool!"

Village Chief Hu: "..." It seems that makes sense, doesn't it?

Old Wang was about to say something more when he saw Wang Wulang rushing over, followed by Xiao Ayu, whose little arms and legs were swinging rapidly, imitating her brother and running with her legs spread wide.

"Grandpa, Grandma! My little sister has planted beans! Lots of beans!" Wang Silang shouted as soon as he saw Old Wang and the others.

While Village Chief Hu was still in a daze, Old Lady Wang rushed over and caught little Ayu, who was running too fast to stop, in her arms.

Little Ayu pulled her head out of her arms, grinned at Old Mrs. Wang, her little face flushed red from running, and she was panting.

"Grandma!" Little Ayu called out sweetly.

"Oh!" Old Mrs. Wang took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat. "Slow down."

Wang Chuanman had just wiped his hands clean and was about to hug Xiao Ayu when Old Mrs. Wang picked her up, turned around, and walked towards Wang Wulang. "What are you doing making such a racket all day? Trying to scare your grandma to death so your grandpa can find you a new grandma! Stop running around like a wild boar all day; even the Monkey King should step down!"

Wang Wulang pointed at Xiao Ayu: "Little Ayu ran away too!"

"It must be you who led him astray!" Old Mrs. Wang lightly kicked Wang Wulang's buttocks, tilting her chin up as she asked, "What did you just say? What kind of beans did you grow?"

"It's right in the back room, grown by Sister Ayu. Let's go take a look, there are so many!"

Village Chief Hu originally intended to return after delivering the items, but upon hearing this, he thought it was just a child's joke, probably some wild grass or fruit.

Spring has arrived, and many plants change every day. Some even start growing secretly in the snow, and some even bear fruit.

But I couldn't resist following them to the back of Old Wang's house.

Old Wang walked ahead, carrying a hoe, while Wang Wulang hopped and skipped ahead, shoveling grass.

After rummaging through a relatively secluded corner, I saw a long row of soybean vines laid out on the ground.

Soybean plants are not actually vines, but rather small trees. However, this soybean plant is different; each branch is very long, winding like a vine, and if stretched out, it would probably be more than half a meter long.

The vine was covered with green bean pods, and judging by how plump they were, there must have been quite a harvest from just one vine.

This thing actually grew right next to the back room, and they didn't even notice it!
Everyone here is a skilled farmer, and seeing this scene, they couldn't stand still. Old Wang and Village Chief Hu stepped forward together, each picked a bean pod, peeled it open, and inside rolled out still-green soybeans.

Each one is perfectly round and plump, comparable to a broad bean!
On a single plant, there were so many bean pods that they couldn't even count them all.

Because they don't know how to count.

"Good heavens, this one plant must weigh at least ten pounds of soybeans!" Village Chief Hu's hands trembled.

At this moment, Wang Chuanman, who was standing nearby, said quietly, "Soybeans, aren't they supposed to be 'October Yellow'?"

It's only early spring, yet it's already sprouting; it's grown so well right after the snow melted.

There are still a solid ten months until October!
Everyone instinctively turned their gaze to the completely unaware little Ayu.

Little Ayu blinked her eyes and tilted her head: "Dad, Grandpa, don't you like to eat beans?"

The elf said that these beans are delicious and can be used to make many things.

—The soybeans are growing at this time, probably because of her.

Is she truly a blessing from heaven?
A doll found in the freezing snow...

Old Mrs. Wang's gaze drifted towards Village Chief Hu, making him shudder involuntarily.

Village Chief Hu's face twitched: "...De-Dewang's wife, why do you look at me like that?"

It looks like they're trying to kill someone to silence them.

Old Mrs. Wang (the villain laughs): You know too much.
