The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2286: Chapter 2286: Following Madam Won’t Lead You Astray (32)

”No need, we’ll do it ourselves.” The tall boy scratched his head, ”I’m Luo Xiaoxin, this is my brother Luo Xiaomao. We live in that courtyard, you’ve seen us, but maybe Brother Ma didn’t notice.”

Today, since the Yang Family’s old residence was holding a funeral, the school had a day off. The two of them helped their big sister with chores, but got distracted and almost lost the bucket.

”Come on, it’s no big deal.” Ma Laiwang picked up the bucket. He knew the house, it belonged to Yang Ruxin, and apparently someone was living there who was a distant relative or something.

In the small courtyard, the stove in the main room was burning brightly, making it very warm. A pot was simmering on the stove, boiling a big bone broth, filling the room with a pleasant aroma.

Luo Da and Luo Er were lying on the lounge chairs, both very weak, kept alive only by Dao Xuzi’s medicinal soup.

Luo Qiaoqiao sat beside them doing needlework, occasionally checking the stove and adding a piece of coal from time to time.

”Qiaoqiao, your dad and I are content seeing you three siblings doing well, even if it means living just two more years.” Luo Er sighed, ”But now, you’re the only one we’re really worried about.”

”Second Uncle, what is there to worry about?” Luo Qiaoqiao lifted her eyes and smiled, ”Look, I’m eating well and dressed warmly now, I even feel I’ve gained some weight. You just focus on getting better. Xiaoxin and Xiaomao are in school now, madam says they’re quite smart. In the future, they’ll at least be able to become scholars.”

”Qiaoqiao, with you around, I’m not worried about the boys, but you can’t let yourself be held back. You’re already nineteen.” Luo Da looked at his daughter with guilt all over his face, ”If it weren’t for the incident with your dad, you should have been a mother by now. But now...” He said, his eyes reddening.

”Dad, don’t be sad.” Luo Qiaoqiao quickly put down her needlework, got up, and brought over the medicine bowl from the table, ”Here, it’s not hot anymore, drink it up.” She carefully fed it to Luo Da’s mouth, and after he finished, she did the same for Luo Er.

”Dad, Second Uncle, don’t worry about me getting married.” Luo Qiaoqiao put down the medicine bowl and continued to sit and stitch the shoe sole, ”As long as I’m with madam, things definitely won’t be bad. As for marriage, it’ll come when the time is right. So, just focus on getting better and wait for my wedding. In the future, you’ll help me take care of my kids.”

”Alright, then Second Uncle will help you take care of your kids, taking them to catch crickets and birds every day. Second Uncle is great with a slingshot.”

”Dad will take him to ride big horses...”

”Yes, then I’ll be filial together with my husband.” Luo Qiaoqiao turned her head to suppress the sting in her eyes, then turned back with her usual expression, ”So, don’t worry. The right thing is to focus on getting better. With you here, Xiaoxin, Xiaomao, and I have a home.”

”Ah!” Luo Da and Luo Er exchanged a glance, ”Focus on getting better.” This life they were living now is something they didn’t even dare to dream of before. Their daughter was right, with madam, the future wouldn’t be bad, ”You must live up to madam.”

Luo Qiaoqiao nodded, ”Don’t worry about that, I know what to do.”

”By the way, where are those two kids who went to carry water, why are they taking so long to come back?” Luo Da changed the subject.

”I’ll go out and check.” Luo Qiaoqiao got up and walked out once more.
