How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

Mom, I'm hungry. Mom, I'm hungry.

It is said that this sentence is extremely lethal to the mother. No matter what state the mother is in, she will immediately break away and find food for her child.

The same applies to Jia Qingwu.

She raised her head and said, "Are you hungry? I, Xia Xia, am hungry. Aunt Xu, Aunt Xu, hurry up and ask the kitchen to make something to eat."

Aunt Xu was about to go up and persuade the eldest lady to take care of herself, but she didn't expect that the cousin would do it with just one word. She smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll go right away." After that, she hurried out.

Jia Qingwu thought about the wait for the food to be cooked, so she called out, "Someone, here are the snacks. Bring them over quickly."

Xia Chu helped her out and said softly, "I'm not too hungry, there's no need to rush."

Cui Ya had already brought the snacks over. Jia Qingwu looked at Xia Chu lovingly, reached out and picked up a piece of snack to feed her, "Mommy will feed you, open your mouth obediently.

Xia Chu felt that she hadn't come to terms with it yet, otherwise, she wouldn't know how to feed him now that he was so big. But she still politely declined. Jia Qingwu felt a little disappointed and kept staring at her eating. She kept muttering to herself, "So good, so great, my baby has grown so big. He's just as beautiful as I thought..."

Madam Jia came over after waking up. The others, having received instructions from Grandpa Jia, stayed away from disturbing her. Seeing her daughter, calm and normal, Madam Jia burst into tears of joy. Jia Qingwu, however, was only focused on Xia Chu. Three generations of grandparents and grandchildren sat together, each looking at their own daughter. Xia Chu felt extremely awkward and didn't know what to say. Jia Qingwu didn't seem to want to ask any questions, as if she was happy and satisfied just by watching.

"I'll go wake Qiu Yu up. I'm worried he won't be able to sleep well at night if he sleeps too much." Xia Chu stood up, and Jia Qingwu hurriedly followed, protecting her with her hands behind her back, as if she was afraid she would fall.

Old Madam Jia wiped away her tears, feeling both sad and distressed. But everything would be fine in the future. As long as her granddaughter was around and her daughter's condition stabilized, she thought.

Wang Qiuyu was still dazed when she was called up. She looked around as if she had forgotten where she was. Seeing the woman following her sister, she couldn't help but hide behind her. Is this a human? She is too thin. She looks like a skeleton covered with skin. "Sister, who is this?"

"This is my sister's biological mother, you can call her..." Xia Chu glanced back at Jia Qingwu. She didn't pay any attention to Wang Qiuyu at all. Her eyes were fixed on her, unwilling to leave even for a moment. Jia Qingwu looked older than Dong Xiaohuan, but she didn't know her exact name. "Call her Aunt."

"Aunt." Wang Qiuyu called obediently.

"Mom," she called out the first time, and the rest seemed easier to say. Xia Chu gestured for her to look at Wang Qiuyu, "This is my adoptive mother's child, my younger brother, Wang Qiuyu."

Jia Qingwu's eyes were a little dull. After a moment's reaction, she looked at Wang Qiuyu and nodded slowly, "Qiuyu."

"Yes." Xia Chu didn't say much. Jia Qingwu was still a patient. She turned to Wang Qiuyu and said, "Are you hungry? Get up and have some snacks."

"Okay." Wang Qiuyu nodded and got up.

Several people sat together. Xia Chu's luggage was brought in by the servants, and Cuihua took it to the east wing and put it away.

"How old is Qiu Yu? He has grown so strong. Is he studying?" Mrs. Jia asked with a smile.

"She's ten years old and has been studying there for several years." Wang Qiuyu glanced at the old lady and felt that she looked different from her grandmother.

"Studying is good. All children should study. Only by studying can one understand things." Old Lady Jia nodded with satisfaction.

"I don't like studying. It's not fun." Wang Qiuyu said frankly.

Madam Jia frowned in disapproval, but seeing that he was at the age where he loved to play, she didn't say much. "So what's fun?"

"I like going out to play. It's fun when my sister takes me to the mountain near my grandparents to pick mushrooms and dig wild vegetables. It's fun to go on outings and have picnics outside. It's fun to fly kites and go for a walk. It's not fun to stay in the study at home." Wang Qiuyu said, and Xia Chu gently poked him with a finger.

Old Lady Jia observed that Juexia must be doing well in the Wang family, considering they weren't siblings, yet their relationship was so close. At least judging by the attitude of Wang's younger brother, her family treated her well. It was said that they were worried about her, so the whole family came with her. Furthermore, the Wang couple not only took in Juexia, but also adopted several other children who had been begging with Juexia. Although the Wang family's parents were from a poor family, they were kind and well-mannered.

Although Juexia has endured some hardships, he's found a kind heart. He's calm and composed, neither arrogant nor impetuous. His imperfections in manners are minor, but they're not serious. His eyes are clear and bright, and his smile is always on his lips. He's a good-natured child, evident at first glance. I have to thank the Wang couple for treating him like their own and raising him so well.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Jia said, "Someone from the Wang family has come, why didn't you bring him to live at home?"

Xia Chu explained, "My parents didn't want to disturb the elders, so they settled us in another house of my uncle."

"I see," said Mrs. Jia, who was not one to fail to understand. She must have been unaccustomed to it and felt more comfortable living alone. She didn't dwell on the topic. "Once they've rested, be sure to invite them over and treat them well. Thank them for taking care of you over the years."

There shouldn't have been anything wrong with this, but Xia Chu felt uncomfortable. It was as if the Wang family had become outsiders, separated from her. Deep down, she had long considered the Wang family's parents her own, and had even decided not to marry in the future, but to take care of them for the rest of their lives and provide for them in their old age.

"Sister, when will Mom and Dad come?" Wang Qiuyu asked expectantly after hearing this. Although he had been away for a short time, the place was full of strangers, and he had already begun to miss Mom and Dad.

"I don't know. Everyone is tired and should rest for two days." Xia Chu didn't tell the truth. When to come depends on their own wishes.

"Oh." Wang Qiuyu responded sullenly.

"Xia Xia, why aren't you eating?" Jia Qingwu suddenly interrupted, seeming to think Wang Qiuyu had eaten too much, with only two pieces left on the plate. She protected the plate and pushed it towards Xia Chu, signaling her to eat quickly or it would be gone.

"I'll save room for dinner." Xia Chu smiled at her.

Jia Qingwu said "oh" and pushed it back to Wang Qiuyu. "Have a good meal. I'll make you your favorite hot pot."

After hearing this, Mrs. Jia looked back at the nanny behind her. The nanny nodded knowingly and left. She was going to inform the kitchen to add a first-class pot to the evening.

"Mom, do you like playing the pipa too?" Xia Chu asked, thinking of the pipa that almost covered a wall in the room.

"Pipa? Xia Xia loves to listen to me play the pipa the most." Jia Qingwu stood up and went into the house to get the pipa.

"Xia Xia can also play the pipa?" Old Madam Jia asked in surprise. The Wang family was not a wealthy family, so how could they afford to hire a musician to teach pipa?

Wang Qiuyu rushed to say, "My elder sister plays the piano so beautifully! She doesn't need anyone to teach her! She can do it by herself! The songs she plays are much better than those played by my husband!" He acted like my elder sister was the best in the world, which made the old lady laugh.
