Rong Yan’s fingers moved. It was not the first day that the little girl had used random words. He could not be serious with her! She definitely did not know that there was a saying “a pair of wings without a colorful phoenix” in front of this sentence. Of course, she did not know that it was talking about lovers!
Rong Yan didn’t know how to respond to that. Fortunately, Xiaoxiao was already used to his silence. She stuffed a handful of green grass leaves into his hand and raised her eyebrows. “Here, let’s finish our lie and continue playing!”
At this moment, Yun Yi, who had completed Xiaoxiao’s mission, walked around the tree trunk with a small sapling. “Master, I…” Then, he retracted his reflexively widened eyes and retracted his gaze from the two people “holding” hands. He held his neck that had stiffened out of curiosity and took big steps back to stop Yun Er, who was also walking over. He said firmly, “Master is not around.”
Rong Yan was speechless. He wanted to change a group of guards.
Xiaoxiao, who did not see this scene, had already adjusted her tone and exclaimed, “Aiya, Little Big Brother Ah Yan, you found it so quickly?”
“Father, Mother, Brother, the cooling grass is indeed here!”
She was talking about mint leaves. This mountainous area had grown a lot, so it was just right to cover up the lie. As for whether to put them in the milk tea, it was not up to her to decide.
Ning Fengnian and his wife were very surprised. Even Ning Ansheng couldn’t help but ask, “Really?” He thought that his sister must be lying to come out and play.
Xiaoxiao avoided Big Brother’s gaze and burrowed into the mint bushes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe chose mint to lie because it was the most luxuriant plant in the vicinity that was useful to her. It was the most suitable for secretly changing the ingredients. She stuffed her small hand under the mint bush and buried a few tomato seedlings with different growth. She stuffed them in again and again. The cumin in the seedling state was also rooted. It was very convenient.
After exchanging dozens of redemption items in the space, she finally heard her second brother ask curiously, “What are these fruits? They’re green and red and strange.”
Xiaoxiao casually picked one. “I’ll bring it back to play with.”
Ning Fengnian was filled with worry. Madam Song also said, “Don’t eat it blindly. Most of the good-looking fungi in the mountains are poisonous. This fruit is hard to say.”
Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, feeling that she was the kind of brat who would casually pick up things to eat in their eyes. “Father, Mother, I’m already 12 years old!”
The couple chuckled and knocked her on the head.
Xiaoxiao was furious. “Besides, doesn’t Doctor Gongsun still want to perform acupuncture on Father? We’ll know if this fruit is poisonous when we ask him.”
Ning Anhui was used to bickering with her. “Do you know how powerful he is again? What if he doesn’t know either? Look at how young he is…”
Xiaoxiao turned to look at her second brother. “Brother, Li Muyan is the current head of the Li Family. With his status, he has always been polite to Doctor Gongsun, but he doesn’t dare to say anything. Guess who this young Doctor Gongsun is?”
Ning Anhui thought for a while and admitted that his brain wasn’t working well.
Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and looked at this lazy thing. “Have you forgotten what Second Uncle said when he found that swindler to cheat us?”
Second Uncle had said too much. When Ning Anhui tried his best to recall, Ning Ansheng probably couldn’t stand it anymore. He reminded him from the side, “The Li Family is looking for the genius doctor.”
Ning Anhui was surprised. “Isn’t that made up?”
Ning Ansheng didn’t want to bother with this stupid brother anymore.
Xiaoxiao continued to remind him. “The identity of the person Second Uncle found is fake, but the Li Family and Shen Family’s search for a doctor can’t be faked. Didn’t you see that County Magistrate Shen didn’t deny it?”
Ning Anhui rubbed his nose that was itchy from the grass on his shoulder. “What does this have to do with Doctor Gongsun?”
Xiaoxiao said in an old-fashioned manner, “Second Brother, you should study more with Big Brother later.”
After a long while, Ning Fengnian and Madam Song were the first to react. Ning Fengnian asked in disbelief, “Xiaoxiao, do you mean that this kind-hearted Doctor Gongsun is the genius doctor found by the Li Family?” He was really lucky! The genius doctor, who was treated as a treasure by the richest family in Jiangnan and the county magistrate’s family, actually took the initiative to treat a farmer like him and did not charge him money!
After Ning An recalled the key point, he raised a question that made Xiaoxiao want to beat him up. “Since Doctor Gongsun has such a powerful background, isn’t it a little overkill to ask him to help you look at wild fruits?”
Xiaoxiao thought to herself that she still wanted to put righteousness before family! Because of Second Brother’s words, her parents also looked like they agreed. She could only say weakly, “I, I can make many, many delicious dishes for him.”
Rong Yan, who had not spoken much, frowned and went forward to take the half-green and half-red “wild fruit” from her. “You don’t have to ask him. I know what it is.”
Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and put on an expression that asked for more details. Rong Yan identified it carefully and said, “This is a scarlet fruit. It’s an additional item. I don’t know why it grows here, but according to the people who brought them here, fully ripe red fruits are edible and taste sour and sweet.”
At this point, he specially turned to look at Xiaoxiao and said solemnly, “But you can’t eat scarlet fruits that haven’t completely turned red. They’re sour and seem to be slightly poisonous.”
Xiaoxiao:… Did everyone misunderstand herfWas she the kind of silly child who would stuff whatever she picked up into her mouth? Huh? Huh? Was she?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe took a deep breath and swallowed her complaints. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile. “Little Big Brother Ah Yan is so awesome. He knows everything in the country!”
This time, Rong Yan’s heart tightened.
It was impossible for an ordinary rich young master to know so much. He was too rash. He could not be so rash next time.
But… Why did he suddenly feel uncomfortable when he heard Ning Xiaoxiao say that she wanted to make a lot of delicious food for that genius doctor?
Behind him, Yun Yi’s gaze darted back and forth between Rong Yan and Xiaoxiao, and he gradually understood.
Since she was sure that it could be eaten, no, it could be eaten after it ripened, Xiaoxiao instructed her second brother to help her dig out more than half of the tomato seedlings in the mint bushes. “We’ll come back next time.”
Ning Ansheng glared at her. “You’re thinking about it just like that?”
Xiaoxiao said seriously, “You have to leave some leeway for everything. If I destroy them all and find out that they can’t be planted when I go back, won’t there be no remedy?”
Ning Anhui patted his eldest brother. “Sigh, I think what Sister said makes sense. If we can plant it, we can just come again next time. It’s not far anyway.”
Ning Ansheng had a headache. He doted on his younger sister, who was getting more and more tough, and his younger brother, who was completely led by the nose by his younger sister. Now, he was even more glad that he had allowed his younger sister to continue opening shops. If she was left at home, who would be able to keep an eye on her?
“You can come, but someone has to follow you!”
He still did not realize that he had long been completely subdued by his sister.
Xiaoxiao carefully hid her smugness and acted cute obediently. “Alright, Brother! I’ll listen to you!”
Big Brother was satisfied, Second Brother was jealous, and there was also Little Big Brother. He felt like his heart had been scratched by something and felt strange..
