Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Breaking Ground Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Breaking Ground In the countryside, candy was quite a luxury, and ordinary families couldn’t afford it, and even if they did buy so, they were reluctant to share it with others. It’s no wonder Xiao Gougou was so anxious; countless won from the village have stord to others’ hos, scolded their ancestors for eighteen generations over their children sharing a little tasty treat with friends, and only stopped after completely venting their anger.
“Hey! It’s just candy, what’s the big deal?”
Xuexue, with a smile brimming on her face, didn’t care at all; she had bought those candies for Chuner in the first place, and now that she wanted to share them with her good friend, she let her be.
The anxiety that Xiao Gougou had been holding in her heart finally settled down, and she felt that Chuner’s sister was even more amiable than before.
Xuexue looked down, rubbed Chuner’s little head, and said, “Chuner, go on, bring out so candy for Xiao Gougou to try. You are good friends after all, and you can’t be stingy, okay?”
“Sister, you’re so nice.”
Chuner cried out joyfully and turned to run into the house.
Xuexue, holding a worn-out hoe, instructed Chuner to watch the house and then went out with Big Bull.
“Wife, where are we going?”
“To the fields to play.”
“Is it fun?” Big Bull asked with a curious face.
This fool, once cleaned up, actually had delicate and tender skin, clearly having never done rough work before—could he be the Eldest Young Master from so wealthy family?
Looking at Big Bull, Xuexue had a thoughtful expression on her face.
“Wife, what are you thinking about?”
“I’m wondering if, after the wound on Big Bull’s head heals and he rembers his family and his own na, whether he will forget about us?”
Upon hearing this, Big Bull imdiately stopped in his tracks, looked at Xuexue earnestly and foolishly, and said, “Wife, you can rest assured, Big Bull will not forget you for his whole life. I will even build a big house for you to live in.”
“Is that so.”
“Big Bull swears to heaven, I’m not lying,” Big Bull declared, while lifting up two fingers in a ridiculous and comical oath.
“Pfft!”
Xuexue burst out laughing, “Never thought you knew how to swear, huh?”
“That’s how I saw Xiao Gougou swear to Chuner that day.”
“Oh?” Xuexue looked surprised, “Why did Xiao Gougou swear to Chuner?”
“He said that when he grows up, he will definitely marry Chuner, or else be struck by lightning.”
“My goodness! That little runt—he’s not even fully grown and he’s already flirting?” Xuexue was both irked and amused.
“He said it’s called ‘preparing for a rainy day’.”
“That little runt hasn’t even attended a private school yet, and he already knows how to use idioms. Not bad at all, he’s got potential.”
“Wife, you’re not angry?” Big Bull asked tentatively.
“What’s there to be angry about? It just shows that our Chuner has been charming since she was little, and won’t have to worry about getting married when she grows up.”
Chatting as they walked, they inadvertently arrived at the edge of the fields.
There they saw Madam Xie in the field, laboriously picking up stones.
In the freezing cold that made people shiver, Madam Xie was working up a sweat.
“Mother!” Xuexue called out loudly from the edge of the field.
Madam Xie looked up, quite surprised, “Xuexue, Big Bull, what are you doing here? Go back, Mother is enough here.”
Although Xuexue was originally from a noble background, she beca a country girl after following her mother’s sudden death, making Madam Xie feel guilty and naturally not wanting her to do such heavy work.
“We’ve co to help. How long can you manage by yourself?” As Xuexue spoke, she went down into the field, walking towards Madam Xie.
The ground was covered with rocks of all sizes, and at the sight, Xuexue’s anger flared up: “The old folks from the Mo family are too despicable, actually giving us such a lousy piece of land.”
