The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 246 Little Ayu Vomits Blood
The donkey carts were all handed over to Wang Chuanman for transporting grain, and the horse carts were returned to the Qin family. Previously, the entire Hu family village had spent half their effort searching for that horse.

Later, when the Qin family found them, Village Chief Hu and the others were extremely grateful.

Otherwise, losing such an expensive horse would be a huge financial burden for their family.

Ostensibly they found the horse, but in reality they brought it back to Akade and the others: ...

I felt very guilty.

Now, Old Wang refuses to use the Qin family's carriage no matter what.

Moreover, if the villagers see them going down the mountain to the village, it might cause some gossip.

Old Wang was reluctant to buy it, and walking there was too far. He also had to carry things with him, which would probably take two or three days round trip, which would be a huge inconvenience.

After thinking it over, Old Wang went to the livestock farm, which specialized in selling all kinds of livestock.

When the shopkeeper saw Old Wang, he recognized him as the father of the owner of Wang's Steamed Bun Shop, and his face immediately lit up with a wide smile.

He went up to him with a smile.

Fifteen minutes later, Old Wang came out with a smile, leading a mule cart.

"Master, didn't you sell another mule cart? Why do you look a little unhappy?" The young man next to him asked, slightly puzzled.

The shopkeeper rubbed his temples, looking aggrieved: "I never expected someone who looked so honest and unassuming to be such a bargainer. I almost lost money!"

Young man: "..."

Watching Old Wang walk away, he silently put down his hand, which was about to buy a sheep.

"Sir, please wait a moment!"

Shop owner: ?
Fifteen minutes later, the young man followed Old Wang out, leading a sheep with him.

The shop owner, who had inexplicably lost money, clutched his chest and remained silent for a long time.

He needs to be given some time.

Old Wang happily drove his mule cart to Xiashan Village, while Little Ayu took advantage of the last day of the busy farming season to go to the Master's house with a group of friends.

Yang Fuzi also wanted a share of the wildflowers that Xiao Ayu had given him. Unexpectedly, the fruits that grew from those flowers were quite tempting.

Master Yang didn't know if the fruit was edible, so he treated it as an ornamental plant.

The children didn't like going to Master Yang's house on weekdays, but Xiao Ayu loved to go to Yang Liu's house, and the others liked to be with Xiao Ayu. Gradually, whether they went to school or not, Master Yang's house was always lively.

On this day, one of Master Yang's former students came to visit him.

Seeing Xiao Ayu and the other children playing happily nearby, I was quite surprised.

He thought to himself, "It seems that the teacher's temper has improved a lot, otherwise the children would definitely not have come here."

Seeing him looking at Xiao Ayu, Master Yang couldn't help but smile: "Don't underestimate Ayu because of her young age. She is very sensible and intelligent, much better than many of her senior brothers and sisters."

It's a pity it's a girl.

Master Yang had expressed such regret many times.

"Is that child really that good?"

Master Yang smiled at her and simply called Little Ayu over from afar.

“Ayu, come here, recite the ‘Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River’ to your senior brother.”

Upon hearing this, the student's eyes widened in surprise. This child looked to be only two or three years old, yet he could recite such a complex text?

Little Ayu was very well-behaved; when she was reciting, she found a slightly elevated spot.

With her little hands behind her back, she imitated Master Yang, shaking her head and swaying her body.

"...I departed from the capital and returned to my eastern fief. I passed Yique, crossed Huanyuan, and traversed Tonggu..."

Xiao Ayu's pronunciation is becoming clearer and clearer; she only struggles a little when she encounters words that are difficult to pronounce.

Master Yang was very satisfied with what he heard, and his friends around him were also very supportive.

The student who came to visit had already stared wide-eyed.

The sunlight fell and shone on Xiao Ayu's face, her long eyelashes trembling slightly as she recited.

Even the spirit-testing rat, which was scurrying about on the ground, seemed to be captivated by Xiao Ayu's earnest expression. Everything was so beautiful.

Suddenly, Xiao Ayu turned pale, covered her neck with both hands, and coughed violently.

He suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The little man could no longer stand and fell headfirst off the platform.

Everyone was shocked.

"Ayu!" Master Yang tried to catch little Ayu.

Unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared and held little Ayu firmly in their arms.

Red Hare looked down and saw that Little Ayu's eyes were closed, her face was pale, and even her breathing was weak.

How is this going? !
"Who are you?!" Master Yang looked at Red Hare warily.

Red Hare did not answer Master Yang's question, but coldly said to Tangyuan, who was standing there dumbfounded, "I will send her back to the Wang family and quickly fetch a doctor!"

Upon hearing this, Tangyuan took off running outside.

By the time Tangyuan went to find the doctor, Chitu had already used his lightness skill to carry Xiao Ayu back to the Wang family.

Upon seeing Xiao Ayu's uncertain state of life and death, Liu almost fainted.

"What's going on here?"

Everyone else was extremely nervous.

When Tangyuan ran to find the doctor, he was seen by Xiao Zhangshi. Upon learning that Xiao Ayu had an accident, Xiao Zhangshi didn't care about the shop anymore. The couple handed the shop over to Cai Niu and rushed to the Wang family.

Meanwhile, little Ayu is caught in a nightmare.

In her dream, she was in a place that was both strange and familiar; it was a somewhat dilapidated courtyard.

Various vegetables were planted in the yard, and a kitten was jumping around.

A young woman leaned against the door frame, holding a needle and thread, mending something.

When Xiao Ayu saw the woman, she suddenly burst into tears.

"Who are you?" Little Ayu blinked her eyes. For some reason, she really wanted to call that person "Mother".

The woman smiled kindly as she slowly approached Xiao Ayu.

Step by step.

As she walked, her appearance gradually changed; her hair turned white, her face turned bluish-purple, and her pupils became dark black.

Her outstretched hand turned into withered bones.

"Ayu...Ayu..." The woman, who was gradually becoming more terrifying, spoke in a sinister tone, "It's all your fault, come down and keep me company!"

Little Ayu stared wide-eyed, standing rooted to the spot, unsure how to react.

Meanwhile, in the Xie family mansion in a neighboring county to the east, an altar was set up in the middle of an abandoned courtyard.

A woman dressed in black, holding bowls of blood, was chanting incantations as she circled the altar.

A little further to the side, a girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old was covering her nose with a handkerchief.

"Are you sure this will work?" The girl frowned, looking at the woman in black with some distrust.

"Exchanging life for life is a forbidden technique and requires more time, so please don't rush, Miss." The woman in black spoke in a very cold tone.

At this moment, there was another little girl lying on the wooden board next to them, seemingly asleep.

They had no idea what was happening outside.

"This is someone I finally managed to find, so please don't mess it up, otherwise I can't guarantee I can find a second one."

“Miss Xie, if you really don’t believe me, we can stop now. But you will have to bear the consequences yourself.”

After the woman in black finished speaking, she slammed the bowl she was holding onto the altar with an expression that said, "Take it or leave it."

Hearing the black-clad woman say this, Xie Dongzhu gritted her teeth in hatred.

It's just that this is something she can't tell anyone. She can only find this one person, otherwise she would never allow herself to be threatened by her!
