Chapter 14

"Daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, are you at home?"

Seeing that no one answered, the woman who led the way said to the boy driving the carriage: "Brother, this is Xiao Yifeng's house. Just wait, I will call you Xiao's daughter-in-law."

After finishing speaking, a roar like a lion's roar sounded.

"Xiao's daughter-in-law, third girl..."

The three mothers in the backyard were stunned for a second when they heard the sound, and then walked out.

Guo Xiaoxiao also responded, "Here it is, who is it?"

Walking to the front yard and opening the concealed courtyard door, Guo Xiaoxiao saw a woman looking at him with a big smile on her face, turned her head to look at the carriage parked aside, and couldn't help becoming curious.

Seeing Guo Xiaoxiao, the servant standing on the side of the carriage came over immediately, bent over and said, "Second miss, the master asked the younger one to bring you something. Please move forward, and the younger one will give you something." Move in."

"Changshun, did my father ask you to come?"

"Back to Second Miss, yes."

"Well, let's move in."

While responding, Guo Xiaoxiao thanked the woman, then ignored the greed in the woman's eyes, turned around and opened the courtyard door, "Changshun, this door is wide enough, please drive the carriage in." .”

"Okay, second lady."

Seeing the carriage entered Xiao's courtyard, the woman couldn't step in, she rolled her eyes, let out a "bah", turned around and walked towards the village.

Changshun brought down some rations and snacks from the carriage, then brought down a basket of eggs, four flailing fish, and finally brought down some pieces of cloth.

"Miss, this time it was the master from Qin county who went to the mansion. The master learned that there are bandits here, so I asked the younger one to send them here."

"It was temporarily arranged by the adults, and there was no time. I only brought these here. The lady will keep them first, and I will send the rest when I am free." He said and handed a stack of things to Guo Xiaoxiao.

As soon as Changshun's words came out, Guo Xiaoxiao understood instantly, then took the things and looked at him and asked, "How is the nanny?"

"Miss, don't worry, my mother is in good health, but she misses her a little, and worries that she is not used to life in this farmhouse."

Guo Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, and handed a pack of dim sum to Xiao Ziqing, "Ziqing, take it and sit down with your sister to eat."

Seeing the two little girls looking at him, but not accepting snacks, Guo Xiaoxiao raised his hand and rubbed their heads, and said softly: "Go and bring Maza over, you two can sit and eat here, okay? "

"Uh-huh."

Seeing Xiao Ziqing turn around to hold the horse, Guo Xiaoxiao put the snack in the little girl's hand, and then continued talking with Chang Shun who was standing aside.

"Brother, go back and tell the nanny that everything is fine with me here. The Guo family is not a place to stay for a long time, so you should make plans early."

"Miss, don't worry, we understand. I came here this time to ask Miss, how do you deal with the few shops Madam left for Miss?"

"Hmph! Didn't Li Qinlan always plan on my mother's dowry? I always wanted to know what my mother's dowry was. Fortunately, my grandfather saved it. When my brother returned, he sold the two shops on North Street. Go, the other three move to Qin County."

Changshun rolled his eyes, and then responded in a low voice: "Okay, we will make arrangements when we get back. After we settle in Qin County, we will send a letter to the young lady. Is there anything young lady needs to do now?"

Guo Xiaoxiao shook his head, "Not yet. Brother, please slow down on the way back."

"Miss, don't worry." After finishing speaking, Chang Shun led the horse out of the courtyard, and drove away in the carriage...

Looking at what was left behind, Guo smiled happily.

She didn't expect that the teacher from Qin County would go to Guo's house, and she felt happy when she thought that his father had to save face and give her something.

In my memory, that father would visit her mother only when he needed money or encountered unsolvable problems, and her mother would help him every time.

But one day, after that woman came to the side courtyard and left, something was wrong with her mother, and later she became ill.

They all thought that her mother was depressed because she didn't get her father's love, but it was not.

Thinking about it now, based on her previous life experience, her mother was poisoned.

Li Qinlan?
Is she really not afraid?

Since then, her mother handed over three shops, and said to the outside world that only the two on North Street were left as her dowry.

These years have passed, and Li Qinlan's mind is alive again.

Since you want it so much, then you can buy it with money. Do you want it for nothing?Don't say there is no door, there is not even a window.

My aunt's things, my aunt has the final say.

After laughing twice, Guo Xiaoxiao moved a few pieces of fabric into the house, then walked into the kitchen to calculate those things.

Today is too hot, the basket of eggs can't be kept, and more than half of them are collected immediately.

The rest are placed in the kitchen, ready to be cooked for a few children, after all, now is the time to grow up.

"Ziqing, Xiao Si, how about we have fish for dinner tonight?"

"Stepmother, do you really eat fish?"

"Mother, I want to eat the fish head."

"Yes, eat fish. Keep the fish head for Xiao Si, and no one can move it, okay?"

"Yeah, mother is the best. Mother, eat cakes." Saying that, the little girl picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and was about to feed Guo Xiaoxiao.

"Xiaosi eats with my sister, but mother doesn't. Mother, go to your Aunt Wen's house." He said and looked at Xiao Ziqing, "Ziqing, take my younger sister to watch the house, stepmother will be back in a while."

"it is good."

Taking a pack of snacks and closing the courtyard door, Guo Xiaoxiao walked quickly to the village.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law Wen, are you home?"

"Hey, here I am, it's Guo Meizi, come in quickly."

"Sister-in-law, how is Brother Wu?"

"It's okay. I took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and I'm much better now. Sister, what's the matter?"

"Today, I sent some snacks from my mother's house, so I'll send them to Tie Dan'er for him to taste." As he spoke, he handed the snacks in his hand to Wen Yan, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, I want to exchange fabric for some." Vegetables, and chicks, I don’t know if my sister-in-law knows where to get them?”

"What? Sister, you just said that you exchanged cloth for vegetables? Chicken cubs?"

Looking at Wen Yan's surprised expression, Guo Xiaoxiao knew that what he did was really right.

Immediately nodded, "Yes, sister-in-law, does anyone know who has it?"

Wen Yan glared at her, and then said aloud: "What's the matter, the fabric is so expensive, and you used it for vegetables, you are really a rich lady."

"Go back, my sister-in-law will bring you some vegetables in a while, and you can keep those fabrics."

"Don't, sister-in-law. The family sent some over this time. I kept some cloth for making clothes, but I still have some. Besides, I want it no matter if it's vegetables or mountain products. As long as I don't cheat me, I will change them."

Looking at Wen Yan's dubious gaze, Guo Xiaoxiao repeatedly assured that the fabrics for making clothes would be kept, and all the fabrics to be exchanged for would be leftovers, which made Wen Yan agree.

"Success. How many chicks do you need? I'll take you to Aunt Yuan's house at the west end of the village. Her house just had a litter of chickens a few days ago."

"That's kind. Shall we go now?"
