Chapter 29: Where Did You Sneak Out From?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Now, seeing Li Hehua’s face full of antic.i.p.ation, Jiang Yue opened her mouth but couldn’t say no.
She had no choice but to obediently move a stool and sit in front of Li Hehua, letting Li Hehua tie up her hair. Li Hehua tied it very carefully, and it took her a long time to finish.
She had two small buns on the top and many braids hanging down from the bottom. Now, she looked extremely lovable and adorable.
She also looked extremely precious.
“No wonder people say you’re the prettiest girl in the village.” When Xue Wufu saw it, he ran over. It was extremely rare. He bent over, his hands on his knees, and stared straight at her.
Jiang Yue was starting to regret asking Li Hehua to tie her hair when she received all this attention…
Even Xue Yan, who came out of the house, was stunned.
Jiang Yue looked up at the sky and avoided everyone.
“Jiang Yue.” Yu Hongyan also came over and stared at her. “Those who don’t know would think that you’re a baby girl who sneaked out of some rich family.”
Liu Guixia laughed. “I agree. So, you guys should treat Jiang Yue better in the future. Such a precious baby shouldn’t be kidnapped.”
“Yes, yes.” Yu Hongyan and the rest actually agreed.
Jiang Yue was speechless.
While Jiang Yue was brushing her teeth with the willow branch that she had bitten off, Xue Dafu, Xue Yifu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Wufu had already left to plow the barren land. Li Hehua had brought a lot of clothes to wash by the river behind the house. Yu Hongyan was cutting wild vegetables with a vegetable knife under the shed to make a pot of wild vegetable soup for later. Liu Guixia was kneading cornmeal flour under the shed, adding something else from time to time to make cornmeal.
Xue Dafu and the others didn’t come back for breakfast. Since they had woken up so early, there wasn’t any breakfast for them. When breakfast was ready, Liu Guixia and Li Hehua would send it to the land and stay there to work.
The crops all year round depended on the hard work of the farmers.
Jiang Yue turned around and saw Xue Yan brushing his teeth. After he washed his face, he took a broom and dustpan and started to clean the house.
After Jiang Yue washed her face, she also took a broom and helped to clean the yard.
Although her body was small, she thought of herself as an adult. If she didn’t do something, she would feel bad and uncomfortable.
The free-range chickens in the yard were not afraid of her. They pecked at something on the ground from time to time and clucked.
“Our Jiang Yue is so sensible.” When Liu Guixia and Yu Hongyan saw her, they couldn’t help but praise her.
Jiang Yue had no choice but to accept it.
When Liu Guixia finished steaming the cornbread, Li Hehua returned after washing the clothes. Yu Hongyan went to dry the clothes, while Li Hehua and Liu Guixia brought Jiang Yue and Xue Yan for breakfast.
Cornbread and coa.r.s.e grain still stung her throat, but Jiang Yue felt that it was more delicious than coa.r.s.e grain rice.
Maybe it was because there was cornmeal in it, so it was a little sweet. There was also the unique fragrance of cornbread. Even so, Jiang Yue only had one cornbread.
She saw that Xue Yan had only eaten one as well.
Liu Guixia and Li Hehua hurriedly ate two cornbread and drank a large bowl of wild vegetable soup. Then, they hurriedly carried the bamboo basket containing breakfast and the hoe.
“Mother, sister-in-law.” Xue Yan stopped them. “You guys keep an eye on Wufu today.”
It was obvious that he was still worried.
