Chapter 629: Chapter 629: She Can Handle It
When Qiao Dami said this, Zhuang Lühe was stunned.
Pocket, pocket money?
Now, Qiao Xiaomai is the one providing pocket money …
“My pocket money is also given by Xiaomai.” Tong Sanlang said, “Mother, our family’s conditions have really improved, you can rest assured to take it.”
Zhuang Lühe upon hearing this, became lost in thought.
What’s going on, even Tong Sanlang falls under Qiao Xiaomai’s management now?
She quickly recalled the Tong Family’s confiscation and gave Tong Sanlang a complex look.
This youngster, who she dared not think of previously, unexpectedly now …
But based on his looks, he genuinely feels good about Qiao Xiaomai.
She pressed her lips together and stopped resisting.
Then Qiao Xiaomai continued shopping, and two carts were quickly piled up with goods. They then all headed towards Anping Village.
The nearer the home, the more timid one becomes. So Zhuang Lühe couldn’t help but hold Qiao Dami tighter, “Should … Should I stay at the manor first?”
She found herself without courage to face the villagers.
“It’s not convenient there. Although the house is built, there’s nothing else there. Besides, it’s noisy often during the day, it cannot fit anyone for living.” Qiao Xiaomai explained.
Zhuang Lühe tightly hugged Qiao Dami without saying a word.
Her breathing turned shallow, her body was stiff.
“Don’t be afraid. It’s past noon now, there’s hardly anyone in the village.” Qiao Changshun comforted her.
It was a hot day, and nobody was out in the scorching sun. Everyone was either at home resting or working in the fields, there was practically nobody on the streets.
Zhuang Lühe laughed awkwardly and remained silent.
Qiao Dami, her small arm around her neck, reassured her loudly, “Mother, don’t be afraid, the Sun Family must be hiding somewhere now. They don’t dare to show up.”
He thought Zhuang Lühe was afraid of the Sun Family.
Zhuang Lühe responded by petting his little head and softly humming in agreement.
The oxcart arrived at Anping Village quickly, just as Qiao Changshun said. The streets were completely empty. From the village entrance to their home, they did not meet a single person.
When they arrived at their house, Qiao Xiaomai told the oxcart to stop, she jumped off to open the courtyard gate.
Qiao Dami also hopped down from the cart excitedly, he ran inside the house calls out, “Mother, come and see sister’s dowry!”
The items that Yang Ye presented, if they could be moved inside, were placed in the house; otherwise they were piled up in the courtyard, the whole courtyard was filled.
Zhuang Lühe looked up at the familiar small courtyard, took a deep breath, and mustered the courage to get off the oxcart.
The small courtyard was still the same, the difference was that everything sold previously had been replaced. There were chicks in the chicken coop, lush vegetables in the vegetable garden, and the shed and the whole courtyard were filled to the brim.
These things were all part of the dowry gifted to her daughter Qiao Xiaomai by the royal characters from the plays…
Zhuang Lühe’s lips trembled, her emotions were a mix of everything. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel·fıre·net
Will she, as a mother, affect Qiao Xiaomai’s relationship with those important figures?
Once she steps into this courtyard, would she bring bad luck to the people inside…
“Mother, come in.” Qiao Xiaomai who had opened the gate and started unloading the carts, seeing Zhuang Lühe frozen at the gate, urged her.
“I, I won’t bring bad luck to you, will I?” Zhuang Lühe asked with a pale face.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai burst into laughter, “Mother, don’t worry, come in. No matter what kind of evil spirits there are, I can suppress them.”
As for fate, she had never bowed down to it.
For Zhuang Lühe, this less intelligent woman with poor judgement, she could take care of her.
