Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 344: Don’t neglect it!

The round-faced maid is called Shui Ling, and the long-faced maid is called Shuiyun. They are both from Zhengjiazhuang.

They are cousins. They didn’t say what they were good at, so they didn’t ask about the good news.

 The days will be long in the future, get along slowly, and you will understand everything.

The old lady was so happy that she bent down to wipe her granddaughter's mouth and said, "Your adoptive father has paid a lot of attention to your affairs. Please go over and have a look. Thank you also to your adoptive father."

“Okay, grandma, I’m going to get some delicious food for my adoptive father.” Jiayin nodded and ran back to the east room with a smile. When she came out, she carried a small basket.

This time, the round-faced Shui Ling took the lead and helped to catch the basket. He carefully carried it in his hand, but his nose twitched invisibly.

Shuiyun glanced at her secretly, causing Shui Ling to stick out her tongue quickly.

Dongmei stayed behind to help the old lady with the work, while Ye Shan led Jiayin and the maid out.

Master Hou is sitting under the eaves of the corridor, wiping the sword that the Li family gave him.

Even though the blade was already shiny, he still wiped it again and again.

 For soldiers fighting on the battlefield, good sharp knives and smart mounts are all trump cards to save their lives at critical moments.

His horse, a BMW, was raised since he was a child. It is smart and physically strong, and can run fast. It can truly travel a thousand times a day and eight hundred times a night.

 But he never found a suitable weapon, so the Li family gave him this sword.

For so long, this knife has been able to chop off the heads of not one thousand, but also two or three hundred barbarians. The blade has no gaps or curls at all. It is simply a magic weapon.

So, when he has free time, he will wipe and maintain it.

Now seeing the little girl coming, he quickly put the knife away for fear of scaring the little girl.

"Father!" Jiayue ran up and sat down next to his foster father, showing off, "Uncle Shan has brought someone back!"

The Marquis held her and sat on his lap, pulled off the handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile: "I found someone for you, are you so happy?"

“Of course,” Jiayin nodded and responded abruptly, “My brothers have to study in the morning, and they don’t take me to play cockfights or slingshots in the afternoon. Humph, I won’t need them anymore, I have someone to play with me!”

The Marquis rubbed her little head and said, "As long as you are happy. From now on, if your adoptive father is not at home, you will have to take them with you wherever you go, you know? You are the princess now, so you have to get used to it!"

“I know, adoptive father!” Jiayin responded quickly and asked Shuiling to deliver a basket with three cantaloupes in it.

Jiayin took one, hesitated and said, "Father, let's eat one, and give the other two to Shui Ling and the others. Shui Ling came over just now and his mouth is watering."

Shui Ling blushed and stepped forward and said, "Master, I am born with a good sense of smell. This fruit is really fragrant..."

Shuiyun was afraid that his master would be angry, so he pulled Shuiling and knelt down, "Master, forgive me, Shuiling has been reckless and greedy since she was a child, but she has good cooking skills and is even more loyal..."

The Marquis waved his hand and signaled them to get up, "Get up. Just take what the Princess rewards you. Stay here tonight and let Dongmei teach you the Princess's habits. From now on, you can serve the Princess wholeheartedly. The Li family will not treat you badly."

Shui Ling and Shui Yun quickly kowtowed, but Grandma He raised her head slightly and glanced at Mr. Hou.

  She was a secret guard. Although she had been in the palace, she also knew the temper of the prince and he was not a talkative person.

At this moment, I heard the Marquis say so much, just to tell the two maids to serve the princess well. It is obvious that the princess is definitely not ordinary in the Marquis' heart and cannot be neglected.

 Thinking like this, she lowered her head even more.

Soon, Ye Shan took them down to settle down. Shui Ling carried a basket with two cantaloupes, grinning happily to the ears. The Marquis took a dagger, peeled the melon skin, and cut it into two halves. The father and daughter sat under the eaves of the corridor, gnawing on the cantaloupe and chatting.

“Father, I want grandma to take me to Luoan tomorrow!” Jiayin hugged the cantaloupe and her little face was a mess.

The Marquis then asked, "Why do you want to go to Luo'an?"

“Brother Jiaren will have his birthday tomorrow, and his third uncle will have his birthday in the next nine days. When I celebrate my birthday, my third uncle and my brother both gave gifts, and I want to give them gifts too!”

Jiayin wiped his face, like a little cat with a beard.

Master Hou was almost confused by all the birthdays. The Li family has a large population, and someone has a birthday almost every ten and a half days. It's hard for the little girl to remember them all.

He finished the cantaloupe in two mouthfuls and took a small silver ingot from his purse. "My adoptive father has been busy these days and has to go back to the Marquis' Mansion. You take the silver and help your adoptive father buy a birthday gift for your eldest brother and your third brother." Uncle, when you come back, you can stay at the Marquis Mansion for a few days."

Jiayin took the money and smiled with bright eyes, "Okay, grandma is too busy taking care of the master and younger brothers and sisters. I will live with my adoptive father, so grandma doesn't have to steam custard for me or coax me to sleep."

After saying that, she stood up and ran home, "I'll tell grandma!"

The Marquis took the little girl’s leftover melon tail in his hand and couldn’t laugh or cry, “This girl came here just to rob money?”

The old lady brought a bowl and was eating noodles. Seeing her grandchildren playing and eating, she laughed and cursed, "Eat quickly, be careful of getting wind in your stomach."

Jiayin jumped in like a little rabbit, rushed into grandma's arms, and talked about going to celebrate the birthdays of her eldest brother and third uncle.

The old lady then remembered, "Oh, I forgot about this when I got busy. I really have to go to Luo'an."

Jia An Jiaxi and Cat Brother immediately came forward, even if they were making trouble, they wanted to follow.

It’s a pity that the old lady gave them a slap in the face, “You should study hard at home and don’t be lazy.”

Jiayin was so proud, "I asked you to play cockfight without me, and grandma and I went to the academy without you either!"

Jia An Jiaxi and Cat Brother were discouraged, and replied with a slumped head, "Why don't we take you? You are too young, and I can knock you away in a game of cockfighting!"

Jiayin blinked her eyes and thought it made sense, so she said, "Then I'll come back and bring you sticky cakes!"

“Seriously? Haha, my sister is the best! Then we’ll wait at home, and you and grandma will come back soon!”

 Jiaan Jiaxi and Cat Brother were both happy.

They especially like the sticky cake sold at the end of Luoan Street. It is not only delicious but also fun. A piece of sticky cake can be stretched out to two feet long.

 Often the two brothers would pull at each other, just to see how long they could stretch it, and then they would eat it. It was a kind of bad fun...

Although Hui Niang is in confinement at home, Dongmei is helping Tao Hongying, Aunt Wu Sanzi and others often come over, and Li Yong is always by his wife and children's side. Mrs. Li is not afraid of anything if she leaves for a day.

 So, early the next morning, Li Laosi drove the carriage, took the old lady and Jiayin and rushed to Luoan, thinking of having lunch, talking about family affairs, and returning quickly in the evening.

When passing through Xindu, they bought some things. When they arrived at Luoan, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

Jiayin opened the window to see the excitement, but saw a horse hurriedly running in front of him, and sitting on the horse was his third uncle.

Perhaps it was because of poor riding skills that the third uncle was crooked, as if he was about to fall down at any time. She was so frightened that she quickly shouted, "Grandma, look, it's the third uncle!"
