Chapter 2426: Chapter 2426: What, are you very happy?
If it weren’t for the fact that the two children cried so desperately at the beginning, nearly crying their lives away, An Jiuyue wouldn’t have brought them all the way back and stayed in the treehouse.
“Your Third Brother, once you et him, you’ll know what he looks like. So, when are we going to the capital to visit your Third Brother?”
She softly asked the two children.
“Whenever Auntie is free, we’ll go with Auntie,” Yi Zhou thought for a mont and replied.
Anyway, it’s the sa wherever they are. Since Third Brother is in the capital, they would go and visit. Auntie Lan, who follows Auntie, ntioned that they ca here because they used to cry a lot.
This place is where their mother rescued them, the place they’re most familiar with.
But now they’ve grown up and don’t cry anymore, so actually, they can go anywhere as long as Auntie is with them.
“So, Auntie will make arrangents. After we pick mushrooms for a few more days, we’ll go back, okay?” An Jiuyue asked them.
“Okay.”
The two responded.
Outside the room, the maid, Lan’er, heard her lady speak, and she couldn’t be happier.
They could finally return to the capital and didn’t have to live here any longer. Those who haven’t experienced it really wouldn’t know how harsh living here could be.
It’s not about eating poorly, but this place truly isn’t suitable for living. In winter, it’s so cold it could freeze a person, with the wooden house letting the wind blow straight through.
And when sumr arrives, the mosquitoes are too nurous. Even with a mosquito net and burning incense, it’s no use.
Occasionally, so wild animals co by, and even snakes try to slither into the wooden house.
Once, while she was asleep, she felt sothing crawling on her face, which startled her awake. She then saw a huge centipede, about to crawl into her collar.
Terrified, she scread and quickly flung the centipede away, not daring to step on it.
In the end, it was the lady who ca over and killed the centipede with one stomp. After that night, she couldn’t sleep well for several nights, fearing more centipedes in the house.
Now that the lady plans to go back, she can follow her, and she truly doesn’t want to return again.
An Jiuyue read books with the two children for a while, then said she would make sothing for them to eat, so she left the room and bumped into her maid, Lan’er.
“What are you doing standing here?”
“Miss, are we really going back to the capital?” Lan’er asked with undisguised joy on her face.
Hearing her words, An Jiuyue frowned slightly.
Living in the wooden house for several years seems to have made this girl forget what her position is.
Not only did she eavesdrop on her conversation with Xiao Zhou and the others, but she even dared to ask in front of her, really taking her as the unworldly young girl she once was?
“Why, are you happy?” she asked coldly.
Seeing her cold expression, Lan’er’s heart dropped, thinking this is not good.
“I wouldn’t dare, Miss. I’m just happy for you, finally not needing to stay in this wooden house anymore, Miss. Sumr is coming soon.
When sumr arrives, there will be so many mosquitoes, and your delicate skin couldn’t bear it.”
She quickly picked nice words, turning the topic to An Jiuyue herself. Even if she wanted to go back, she couldn’t let the lady think she was anxious.
