Liu Guixia and the others had more than enough to fill their bowls.
Jiang Yue couldn’t eat more. It was already very difficult for her to finish the long strand of noodles in her bowl.
Xue Yan’s bowl was also filled with noodles. Xue Yan first finished the two poached eggs on the top before eating the noodles on the bottom.
Jiang Yue was the birthday girl today. Even if she wanted to help the family, Liu Guixia and the others naturally wouldn’t let her. They let Xue Yan bring Jiang Yue to play around the house. They were told that they could also play in the village.
Knowing that Jiang Yue was four years old today, their neighbor brought a chicken and ten eggs after breakfast.
His grandfather, Xue Da, was also here. He was very happy. Jiang Yue was four years old. Knowing that Jiang Yue wouldn’t want anything from an old man like him, he wrapped two copper coins in red paper and gave it to Jiang Yue.
Only then did Jiang Yue accept it.
The old man was very happy.
Xue Da had lunch at Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s house today. Liu Guixia asked Xue Darong’s family to come over for lunch, but Xue Darong’s family refused. Liu Guixia asked Xue Dafu to call him again, and Xue Darong’s family agreed to come over for lunch.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan accompanied their grandfather in the courtyard. Xue Shi was also carried out. The rocking bed was also carried out so that Xue Shi could bask in the sun. However, he couldn’t let the sun shine directly into Xue Shi’s eyes, so he even put a small hat on Xue Shi.
In other words, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had to help take care of Xue Shi in addition to accompanying their grandfather. Fortunately, their grandfather was very happy. He felt that he was surrounded by his lovable grandkids.
Soon, Sifu returned from town.
He rode back on a horse.
He bought a lot of vegetables, including ribs. He also prepared a birthday present for Jiang Yue.
During lunch, Xue Da and Jiang Yue, sat in the middle. Everyone put food into her bowl and filled it to the brim.
After lunch, Xue Sifu returned to the shop in town.
On the way back to the town, Xue Sifu met Doctor Shen’s carriage and chatted with him for a while before continuing to the town.
Doctor Shen came to Locust Village.
All the others had all left. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan saw Doctor Shen come and went out. The other people at home also came out.
Doctor Shen smiled and said, ” Jiang Yue, I met Sifu on the way here. I just found out that you are four years old today. Please pardon my rudeness. I didn’t even bring you a birthday present.”
“There’s no need, ” Jiang Yue said. “Have you had your lunch?”
“Yes, I came after eating. Where’s Madam Xiao?” Doctor Shen asked with a smile. If he was told to keep a secret, he would do his best to keep it.
When he was sent out of Quanping Inn, Shao Shuting had asked him for help, so he naturally wouldn’t let the cat out of the bag.
Although he was not very clear about Shao Shuting and his sister’s ident.i.ty, he could see that the two of them were not bad people. Therefore, he would be willing to put this matter aside for now.
“In the rooms at the back.” Jiang Yue said.
Zi Cui quickly stepped forward and said politely, “Doctor, please follow me.” Doctor Shen followed Zi Cui.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan originally wanted to follow and take a look, but Xia Han suddenly stopped them and smiled apologetically, “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, our master has something to ask Doctor Shen in private. I’m sorry.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t follow, instead, they only looked at each other.
They couldn’t figure out what private matters Shao Youyue had to ask Doctor Shen about.
Naturally, they felt that this matter was quite strange.
However, they did not ask anything..
