The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1640: Chapter 1640: How to Help (5)

”Why are you all back?” Yang Ruxin looked at the group of kids, their heads resembling radishes. Because of the cold weather, everyone was bundled up, especially the younger ones like Erya, Sini, and Little Yezi, who looked like colorful balls.

”Big Sister, we only had class in the morning today, and there’s no food provided,” Sini said, blinking her big eyes.

”Alright, Big Sister forgot about that.” Yang Ruxin pinched Sini’s rosy little cheeks. ”Hurry and go change your clothes and wash up.”

”Big Sister, what were you just talking about?” Sanni didn’t rush to change and instead sat down.

Zhou Xiao also stayed behind.

”The families of the two herbalists I told you about before have arrived. They’re meeting in the side room right now,” Yang Ruxin explained to Sanni without hiding anything. ”Your Second Sister wants to help them.”

”I think we should.” Sanni, knowing the details Gu Yuan had brought back, nodded immediately. ”But this matter can’t be brought up by us; otherwise, they won’t feel grateful.”

Yang Ruxin smiled and glanced at Erni.

Erni shrugged. After all, Third Sister was always smarter and saw things more clearly than her—she’d long since accepted that.

At this moment, Gu Yuan walked in and said, ”Miss Yang, Luo Da and Luo Er would like to see you.”

Yang Ruxin nodded and stood up.

”I’m going too,” Sanni quickly got up and followed her.

Since Sanni went, Zhou Xiao naturally followed as well, and finally, Erni also tagged along.

In the side room, the family had already been talking calmly for a while. Upon seeing Yang Ruxin enter, they quickly stood and bowed.

”Is there something you need from me?” Yang Ruxin nodded slightly.

Luo Da and Luo Er, holding onto their three children, knelt down together.

”Miss Yang, my brother and I aren’t going to live much longer. Even if we do survive, we won’t be able to take care of the children,” Luo Da said, tears welling in his eyes. ”Qiaoqiao has already been delayed because of me... I only hope Miss Yang can take them in, just so they can at least have enough to eat. They’re very diligent, truly they are...”

”Yes, the children have endured so much, especially Qiaoqiao,” Luo Er said, his voice choked with sobs once again. ”We just want them to survive well...”

Yang Ruxin didn’t rush to respond. Her gaze swept over them, finally stopping on Luo Qiaoqiao. ”What do you think?”

”We beg Miss Yang to take us in.” Luo Qiaoqiao lowered her head to the ground in a kowtow. She knew her ability was only enough to barely raise her two younger brothers; she couldn’t even guarantee they would one day marry wives. If that was the case, why cling to the status of a freeman?

”Indeed, I need more people here, but what I require are loyal servants, so...”

”We are willing to sell ourselves.” Luo Qiaoqiao spoke firmly.

”But the servants here must abide by the rules,” Yang Ruxin said with a faint smile.

”We will never forget Miss Yang’s life-saving grace,” Luo Qiaoqiao promised adamantly. ”If we do, may we be struck by lightning.”

”If that’s the case, then you may stay,” Yang Ruxin nodded. ”For the time being, you are not required to work. First, focus on taking care of your fathers. I have a house in the village; you can all move there and live together. Then...” She paused for a moment. ”After the New Year, Luo Xiaomao and Luo Xiaoxin can join the others in attending school.”

Hearing this, Luo Qiaoqiao’s eyes lit up instantly, and she tugged on her two younger brothers. ”Quickly, kowtow to Miss Yang!”
