Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Seeing the person coming, Zhou Xiaoxi smiled instantly, and when he stood up, he realized that his body was covered in mud, especially his hands, even under his fingernails.

She brushed off the mud on her hands somewhat embarrassedly, and was about to say hello to Yang Zian when she saw the woman standing behind him.

The man had tears in his eyes and looked at him eagerly.

Zhou Xiaoxi stopped unconsciously. She quickly guessed the identity of the visitor, but she didn't know what to say in public.

It was Yang Zian who broke the deadlock. He introduced:

"Xiaoxi, this is my aunt. Aunt Nanqing, this is Zhou Xiaoxi."

Baili Nanqing quickly calmed down, took Zhou Xiaoxi's hand and said with a smile:

"Good boy, I love you the moment I see you. Tell me how to do this job, and I will work with you."

Zhou Xiaoxi looked at his tightly clenched hand somewhat helplessly. The back of his hand was white, tender and smooth, but the calluses on the palm were thicker than his own due to years of hard work.

Looking at her right hand again, it was wrapped in a white handkerchief with a faint red tint. Was she injured?

She asked with some concern:

"Your hand?"

"Ah! Look at me, I totally forgot about it. It's okay, I was just accidentally cut by the teacup, it will be fine in a few days. I'm very strong, I can do some rough work without any problem."

Zhou Xiaoxi felt a little sad when she heard this. The warmth transmitted from the tightly held hand made her feel unprecedented peace of mind.

"There isn't much work to do, so why would you need to do it yourself? I'll talk to them about the rest, and we'll go home after that."

The ceramic pots that Zhou Xiaoxi bought are used to grow Oxalis.

There is a large open space around the largest pear tree in their village. It was here that Li Shoucai made some important speeches.

For this reason, no Oxalis seeds were sown in this vacant lot.

Zhou Xiaoxi thought of piling up pots of Oxalis in this place and arranging them into special patterns based on the different colors of the flowers.

First, it can increase the overall beauty of the village; secondly, these potted plants are for sale.

One hundred coins for a pot is a bit high, but this is a scenic spot after all! Besides, this thing is too easy to copy, and it will soon be sold in other places, so the price will definitely drop in the future.

So this is probably the only chance to sell it at a high price.

Zhou Xiaoxi told Zhang Da Niu about her plan, and she was in charge of everything else. She also drew a simple sketch of where to put the flower pots, and they just had to place them according to the markings on the picture.

During this time, Zhou Xiaoxi found that many people in the village began to look down on Zhang Daniu. Her cousin Li Daniu was the most well-informed in the village and had reported many things to her.

Words like "servants" and "lives lower than theirs" are unbearable to hear.

At present, everyone has a common goal and seems very harmonious on the surface, but Zhou Xiaoxi knows in his heart that the customs of the villagers still need to be improved.

Therefore, Zhou Xiaoxi recently handed over many tasks to Zhang Daniu. The girl was also very competitive and completed every task beautifully, which made people convinced. She silenced many people.

She never forgot about building a village school, and she started working immediately after the appreciation party. If she wanted the villagers to truly unite as one, she had to vigorously develop education and solve the problem fundamentally.

After quickly arranging things, several people came to Zhao's house.

Zhao and Li were busy with their workshop and had not come back yet. Only the eldest daughter was doing housework at home.

Seeing the group of people, she bowed gracefully and went into the house to make tea.

Baili Nanqing was very surprised and looked at Zhou Xiaoxi with raised eyebrows.

Zhou Xiaoxi explained with a smile:

"The village inn needs help, so I asked Brother Yang to invite a governess from the city to teach everyone the rules. It would be a shame to let those nobles laugh at us, and it would also affect the reputation of the appreciation party."

Zhou Xiaoxi cleaned it a little bit, and Baili Nanqing took a wet towel to help her clean her face. After she was done, Zhou Xiaoxi thought of something, looked at Yang Zian and Fu Qiuyang and said:

"Please go to the main hall and rest first. I will go change into clean clothes."

Then he looked at Baili Nanqing again.

"Can you come in and help me with my hair? I'm not very good at doing a bun."

It was true that she couldn't do a bun, but Zhou Xiaoxi didn't need to let Baili Nanqing, whose right hand was injured, tie her hair. She just found a lame excuse and wanted the other party to personally confirm the cinnabar mole on her chest.

It was not convenient for Shangguan Lan to see it at that time, but there is nothing to be embarrassed about now.

Always ask the other party to confirm, otherwise it will end up being a big mistake.

In fact, until now, Zhou Xiaoxi still has no sense of identity with his true identity and always feels it is unreal.

Fu Qiuyang heartlessly went straight into the house to drink tea and eat snacks, but Yang Zian guessed it roughly.

My love for Zhou Xiaoxi increased even more. She is smart and does things in an upright manner. How can one not like her!

Baili Nanqing didn't think so much. She only regretted why she didn't follow the governess's instructions on how to comb hair. She was so depressed that she couldn't satisfy her daughter's first request!

But she still smiled and agreed, and followed Zhou Xiaoxi into the house. She was determined not to miss any opportunity to be alone with her daughter!

The furnishings in the room were simple and plain, and there wasn't even a jewelry box on the small dressing table.

Baili Nanqing felt so distressed when she saw this. She suddenly remembered the gift she brought and was about to go out to the carriage to get it, but was stopped by Zhou Xiaoxi.

"Asking you to comb my hair is just an excuse. I still want you to confirm my identity in person."

She turned around, took out a small bag from the closet, and handed the small clothes inside to Baili Nanqing.

Baili Nanqing carefully took the peach pink dress that had obviously faded, and gently stroked the pattern of a cat catching a butterfly with her hand.

Tears fell down her cheeks, and she murmured:

"When you were able to crawl, you would get excited whenever you saw a cat, and you would smile happily with your toothless mouth. Child, you are my daughter, I am absolutely sure of that. In fact, I was sure the first time I saw you, because you look like your father, and your two brothers look like me."

No wonder!

Zhou Xiaoxi could hardly find any similarities between herself and Shangguan Lan, so she was always suspicious.

However, it is better to confirm everything. So she continued:

"Although you are sure that I am your daughter, I still want you to see the mole on my chest, just to be sure."

After saying that, she didn't feel shy. The mole wasn't on a private part of her body, so Zhou Xiaoxi simply opened her collar to show it to the other person.

Baili Nanqing couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands to suppress her tears, and looked at the center of Zhou Xiaoxi's chest with tearful eyes.

Only then did she understand the real purpose of Zhou Xiaoxi asking her to come into the house.

The guilt she felt at the child's behavior became even more difficult to suppress, and she hugged him in her arms and burst into tears.

"Qingyue, my daughter, it's been so hard for me to find you!"
