Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

Why would anyone come here at this time?

Qiao Ran stood up. Butler Zhou and Shopkeeper Chen also looked at each other and followed Qiao Ran out together.

Five carriages came, and the carriages contained more grain, meat, vegetables, etc. than what Butler Zhou and Shopkeeper Chen had delivered.

A middle-aged man who looked like a butler jumped out of the front carriage. Butler Zhou and Shopkeeper Chen shouted at the same time: "Butler Zheng?"

Butler Zheng obviously did not expect these two people to appear here, and asked in surprise: "Why are you two here? Are you here together?"

He looked at the piles of grain, meat, and vegetables piled in the open space, and wondered why so many people came to this small valley to give gifts.

Shopkeeper Chen laughed and said: "Miss Qiao is our partner in Juxian Restaurant. Old Zheng, why are you here? Oh, is it because Miss Qiao saved your lady in our restaurant last time?"

Butler Zheng nodded and asked the girl standing in front of Butler Zhou and Shopkeeper Chen, "Is this Miss Qiao?"

Qiao Ran nodded.

Butler Zheng bent down and bowed sincerely:

"The old servant is the chief steward of General Zheng's house. At the order of my general and his wife, I sent a small gift to Miss Qiao. I hope that Miss Qiao will accept it. The general and his wife have always wanted to find the girl and reward her for her kindness to our family. Thanks to the lady's saving grace, I went to Juxian Building several times but couldn't find the girl. I asked shopkeeper Chen and found out that you live in Devil's Valley, so the general asked me to deliver these grains, meat and vegetables first. The house will not be so busy in a few days. Now, come over and thank the girl in person."

Qiao Ran remembered that she had used the Heimlich maneuver to save a dying little girl from choking on peanuts at Juxian Building, and she understood.

"The general and his wife are so polite! It's just a little effort and nothing worth mentioning. I hope Butler Zheng will come back and let me express my gratitude to the general and his wife. I also wish them good luck in the new year and all the best!"

"Okay! Okay! The old servant will definitely tell you."

Butler Zheng smiled happily. He did not expect that such a little girl from a rural background could be so humble and polite. She was more polite than those rich ladies in the capital who were carefully taught by their wives and mothers.

And he was not arrogant at all. He only said that the life-saving grace was a simple effort, and he was not greedy for credit at all. He did not take this opportunity to climb the big tree of the General's Mansion to find a shelter for these helpless refugees who had just settled down.

Butler Zheng's affection for Miss Qiao doubled instantly, and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

Qiao Ran asked him to stay and have lunch with him. Butler Zheng also sent away the servants in the house, not even leaving a carriage behind, and planned to ride on the carriage of Butler Zhou or Shopkeeper Chen back to the city.

Several people returned to the tent, and Old Mrs. Qiao, who was holding her grandson in the corner of the tent and watching a group of monkeys teasing two rabbits with green vegetables and hay leaves, came up to them.

"Ran Ran, who are these...?"

Qiao Ran introduced both parties. Mrs. Qiao did not expect that all of them were servants of important people in the capital. She was a little nervous and quickly invited the people into the big tent.

However, the three housekeepers saw that this old country lady was well-groomed. She was not vulgar even when she was wearing coarse clothes and a homemade leather jacket. She also behaved elegantly. If she were wearing the clothes of a wealthy family's mistress, it would be difficult for anyone to suspect her. her identity.

Mrs. Qiao's bones were not in good shape and her complexion was very poor. Especially after she had to travel continuously without food or water while fleeing from famine, her whole body was almost collapsed and her face was so thin that she looked disfigured.

Fortunately, Qiao Ran came through, and her family drank spiritual spring water along the way. The old lady's health became better day by day, her old diseases were completely cured, her body became stronger and her complexion became stronger. The better come.

And because the food is much better than in my hometown, there is always fish and meat, and the food makes me look rosy and happy, and I really don’t look like an old country lady who has just been on the run for several months.

Qiao Ran and shopkeeper Chen went to draw up a contract, while housekeeper Zhou, housekeeper Zheng and Mrs. Qiao sat down on the cushions on one side to chat.

Seeing the white, tender and chubby baby in the old lady's hands, the two old housekeepers felt happy.

This little baby looks like a lucky doll, does it mean that this family is full of blessings?

Then looking at the little guys who were feeding two little white rabbits in the corner of the tent, the two old housekeepers sighed again. The population is prosperous, which is also a great blessing!

"Sister, are those your grandchildren?"

Butler Zheng asked, pointing to a group of children in the corner.

Mrs. Qiao nodded and called her grandchildren over.

"Come here, I've met the two housekeepers. This is Grandpa Zhou, and this is Grandpa Zheng."

Qiao Xi, Qiao Beiqiao, Xing Qiao and Yue all shouted: "Hello, Grandpa Zhou! Hello, Grandpa Zheng!"

"Okay! Okay! Okay! Oops, grandpa didn't expect to bring some toys that little kids like to play with. Really, I haven't even prepared this as a greeting gift, so I'll give you a few gold leaves to play with!"

Butler Zhou's heart softened when so many children called him grandpa. He excitedly took out a money bag from his body and put a handful of shiny gold leaves on the little guys' little hands.

Butler Zheng on the side was also excited. Unlike Butler Zhou, he was a servant of the Zheng family. His master valued him and gave him the surname Zheng.

After all, he was just a slave, but here he was called grandpa by so many children, not caring about his identity at all. He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed to slits.

He also gave a few golden melon seeds to each of the children. He also dug out a small bundle from the pile of supplies he brought over and spread it out. It was a pile of small toys for the children in the city.

There are cloth tigers, rattles, jigsaw puzzles, nine-link rings, thousands of tops (spinning tops), Cuju, Shuanglu, Kongming Suo, etc. It's a full bag.

Housekeeper Zhou was shocked: "Old Zheng, why did you bring so many toys here? How did you know that Qiao Yatou's family has so many children?"

He secretly blamed himself in his heart for not being more careful and asking if there were any other children in Qiao Yatou's family. He didn't bring any gifts now, but instead let Old Zhengtou, an old boy who had never seen Qiao Yatou, Stealing the limelight.

Butler Zheng smiled and said: "Because I have a young lady at home! I often buy gifts for young ladies. This time I am coming to Devil's Valley to give gifts, so I have prepared these small toys. If Miss Qiao's family has a baby, wouldn't these gifts be just right for her? Give it to them? If there are no such young babies, then it would be a good idea to give it to the babies in the village!"

Butler Zhou was upset because there was no child in his master's house, so he never thought of buying some gifts for children.

Seeing those cute little children surrounding the pile of toys and sweetly mouthing Grandpa Zheng's hands, Butler Zhou felt very angry.

After returning home, he will go to the streets in person, buy all the toys suitable for children on the street, and give them a big package!
