The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 91 Drawing Things

Old Wang knew absolutely nothing about the truffles.

Grandma Wang explained it to him, and as Old Wang listened, he felt something was amiss.

"You're saying that Ayu found those expensive truffles?" Old Wang asked, puzzled. "We've been in Hujia Village for 17 years now, how come no one has ever dug them up before?"

Grandma Wang glanced at him and said, "Do you think you can just dig that up whenever you want?"

Moreover, if it weren't for Xiao Ayu insisting on bringing it back for her to see, the other silly boys in the family would have thought it was sheep droppings and would probably have kicked it away when they saw it. They would never have thought it was a good thing.

As for Dr. Hu, he never thought about this aspect. Those precious medicinal herbs generally depend on the right time and place; they grow where they are meant to grow, and you might not be able to find them even if you search for them separately.

Old Wang said, "Our Ayu is a bit unusual."

"You're only finding out now?" Old Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes with practiced ease. "Her eyes alone are extraordinary, but so what? Now Ayu is one of our Wang family members, and she's brought us so many benefits. We two old bones will protect her even if it costs us our lives!"

Old Wang sighed, "How about we send Ayu away and find her a wealthier family? It's better than letting the child suffer in our house..."

"You're such a blockhead! Do you think wealthy families are easy to deal with? There are plenty of dirty tricks in big families. If you want to harm your child, you're welcome to try!"

“But if Ayu were an ordinary child, it wouldn’t matter. She clearly has a secret, we…”

Looking at the 500 taels of silver notes on the table, plus another 50 taels of silver, the old lady Wang's expression changed repeatedly.

She asked, "Wang Dewang, how many years have I been married to you?"

Old Wang was stunned: "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

"I've been married to you for so many years, and I haven't had many peaceful days. I'm 52 this year, and I've lived most of my life. I'm content." Old Mrs. Wang suddenly said, "I'll live as many days as I can in the rest of my life. I refuse to believe that I've risked my life and still can't protect one child!"

Old Wang looked displeased: "...Why are you bringing this up out of the blue! I never said I wouldn't raise Ayu. Whatever secrets she may have, the child herself has done nothing wrong, and I didn't intend to drive her away. You're making it sound like I'm a bad person!"

Besides, what kind of family would kick their child out after the child has earned so much money? That doesn't make sense.

He was worried, not that the Wang family would be implicated, but about the child.

Ignoring Old Wang's expression, Old Mrs. Wang said to herself, "I want to use this money. The debt of more than 2000 taels of silver owed over there will not come from here, but I want to use this money to make more money."

Old Wang opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

"Didn't we agree before? You'd be in charge of everything at home, big or small. You can do whatever you want." Old Wang looked at the few white hairs that had suddenly appeared on Old Mrs. Wang's forehead and realized that his wife had really aged without him noticing.

She was clearly very beautiful when she was young.

But now, for the sake of her family, she works as hard as a real old farmer.

He was the one who let her down.

Old Wang suddenly had an idea.

Just then, Old Mrs. Wang slapped Old Mr. Wang on the shoulder, followed by her scolding: "You've finished talking, what are you standing there for?! Get back to work! Do you expect me to serve your whole family all day long? You might as well work me to death!"

Old Wang: "..." He was wrong. He shouldn't have thought that his wife was sad right now.

After Old Wang walked out dejectedly, Old Madam Wang carefully put away the silver and banknotes. She glanced at Old Wang's limping leg, pursed her lips, and ultimately decided not to tell him that perhaps Ayu's divine water could cure his leg.

After all, that divine water could even bring the dead back to life and pull people back from the brink of death; it was impossible that it couldn't even cure a lame person.

However, it may not be as simple as it seems.

There's still a lot going on at home that needs to be addressed.

Let's put the old man's legs aside for now.

After cleaning herself up, Xiao Ayu quickly skipped off to find Qin Huai, wanting to see if her brother Ayou had gotten better.

Chi Jia had already brought Qin Huai back, and he was carrying a pheasant in his hand. He casually tossed it to Aunt Hu: "Let's add a dish tonight."

Aunt Hu was somewhat flattered: "Is this for us?" Hu San, standing nearby, asked, "How much does it cost?"

Their family doesn't have much money left.

"No need, just give us a bowl when it's ready." After saying that, Chi Jia led Qin Huai back to his room.

Chi Jia was a rough man. Hu Sanshen and the others' bedroom was a mess. Chi Jia had just added an extra layer on top, but there was still a lingering smell around.

"I need to take a bath." Qin Huai really couldn't stand himself anymore.

He actually got diarrhea, which had never happened before.

He now despises himself immensely.

I even forgot to feel the unprecedented lightness in my body at that moment.

Chijia quickly went to prepare hot water for him.

Little Ayu's head popped out from the bedroom doorway, and she covered her eyes with both hands, asking him, "Brother Ayou, guess who I am?"

Qin Huai didn't speak, but just stared at Xiao Ayu.

"Haha, it's the cutest little Ayu!" Ayu ran forward and pointed to a light pink bib in front of her, "Brother Ayu, look, this is a new bib that Mom made for me. It's bigger and prettier than the previous one!"

Qin Huai glanced at it and didn't find anything interesting about it.

The fabric was rough, the stitching was hardly exquisite, and the fabric was bare without any embroidery. Even the worst embroiderers in the mansion could make something much better than this.

But faced with Xiao Ayu's expectant gaze, he still nodded against his will.

Little Ayu took two fruits out of her pocket, one yellow on the left and one red on the right.

She blinked and asked Qin Huai, "Brother Ayou, if it were you, would you choose the left or the right?"

"…Honey, you should choose for yourself."

Tuanzi was truly exasperated with this little rascal. Just now, it had asked the little rascal to choose its reward, and the little rascal came running over here.

It thought it had forgotten about that matter, but it turned out that it wanted Qin Huai to help it choose.

You're very lucky; the things you chose yourself are definitely better.

But Xiao Ayu wouldn't listen. She felt that she hadn't used anything she won in the lottery, so it didn't matter what she won.

Moreover, how does it know that Brother Ayou is unlucky?

Qin Huai didn't know what Xiao Ayu meant, but he thought that Ayu probably wanted him to choose one of them, and she would keep the other one for herself.

So he chose yellow.

Yellow is usually associated with acidity, so let's leave the red one for her.

Wow! Actually, I also want to choose yellow; it looks delicious!

Although Xiao Ayu said that, she still generously handed the one on her left to Qin Huai, and then told Tuanzi in her heart that she wanted to choose the one on the right.

The one on the left was chosen by Brother Ayou, and the one on the right was left for me by Brother Ayou, so I'll choose the one on the right.

The ball of light on the right was selected, and the ball of light on the left immediately disappeared.

It took out a box from the ball of light, and after seeing what was inside, the little dumpling breathed a sigh of relief.

Okay, at least it's not useless.

You should be able to use what you got from this draw very soon.
