Chapter 327: Eight Bearers

At the same time, Li Qingyin and her family in the Xu Village also woke up.

Xu Wenlin’s injuries were no longer serious. Her heart still hurt, but it was no longer a problem.

As soon as the siblings got up, they went to the foot of the mountain to pick the bamboo leaves. They felt that fresh bamboo leaves were better, so they went to pick them early in the morning.

The bamboo forest grew along the foot of the mountain. It was a large area, about an acre of land. They picked one-tenth of it every day. After picking it, they immediately fertilized the bamboo trees for the sake of sustainability.

The siblings each picked a basket and returned home. Li Qingyin just finished making breakfast.

As soon as Xu Wenlin entered the house, she called out sweetly, “Mother…”

Li Qingyin’s voice came from the kitchen. “Wash your hands and eat.”

Xu Wenlin replied, “Okay, Mother.”

They had plain porridge, steamed buns, eggs, and pickles for breakfast. In the entire village, their breakfast was the most sumptuous.

Li Qingyin doted on her children as much as Li Qingyu doted on her children. Now that she had money, she spent it on her children. They were still growing.

The three of them surrounded the table and ate. After they ate, Li Qingyin went to feed her husband.

Li Qingyin said, “Go and deliver the bamboo leaves to Cousin’s house later. I’ll go to the county to buy ducklings. Don’t be anxious if you don’t see me when you come back.”

The pond had been cleaned up and a small shed had been built to shelter the ducklings from the wind and rain. Everything was arranged.

The two children nodded.

Xu Songnian swallowed the bun and said, “Mother, my thirteenth birthday is in three days. Shall we invite Cousin’s family over for dinner?”

Li Qingyin immediately agreed. Third Sister’s family had helped them so much, so they should indeed express their gratitude. “I’ll prepare a few tables of dishes to celebrate your birthday.”

Xu Songnian smiled. “Thank you, Mother.”

Li Qingyin touched her son’s head, her eyes filled with love.

After dinner, Xu Songnian and Xu Wenlin set off for the Chu Village with the bamboo leaves on their backs.

When Xu Songnian and Xu Wenlin arrived, Chu Qingzhi’s family was eating.

Li Qingyu called out to the two children. “Songnian, Wenlin, come and eat.”

Xu Songnian shook his head. “Third Aunt, we ate before we came.”

Li Qingyu knew that Xu Songnian was stubborn and had strong self-esteem, so she did not insist anymore. She turned around and handed them a fried dough stick each. “Eat it. I will help you weigh the bamboo leaves later.”

Xu Songnian smiled and took the fried dough stick. It smelled so good. He swallowed his saliva. “Thank you, Third Aunt.”

Xu Songnian ate the fried dough stick and went to an auntie’s house in the village to squeeze some goat milk. Then, he would feed it to the three wolf cubs.

He came to feed them every day. Chu Qingzhi told him that the wolves would only recognize him if he fed them everyday. Hence, he was in charge of the three wolf cubs’ daily meals.

The journey from Xu Village to Chu Village took about fifteen minutes. If he ran, it would only take him five minutes.

Li Qingyu weighed the bamboo leaves for them. It was the same as usual. Xu Songnian had ten catties of bamboo leaves, which amounted to 50 copper coins, Xu Wenlin had five catties, which was 25 copper coins.

With so much money every day, Xu Songnian could save one to one tael and five hundred copper coins a month.

Xu Songnian put away the money and said with a smile, “Third Aunt, it’s my birthday in three days. Mother said to treat your family to a meal.”

When Li Qingyu heard this, she remembered that Xu Songnian’s birthday was indeed coming soon. “It’s my fault. I almost forgot. Go back and tell your mother that we’ll definitely come.”

Xu Songnian nodded happily. “Ok.”

At the village entrance.

Chu Qingzhi’s family sent Ning Yuting and Grandpa Ning to the village entrance.

Ning Yuting helped Grandpa Ning into the carriage. Then, he turned around and said to everyone, “Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Chu, Auntie, brothers, sisters, we’ll go back first.”

Grandpa Chu said reluctantly, “Bon voyage. You have to eat the dry food I prepared for you. Don’t let yourself starve.”

Grandpa Ning lifted the curtain and said with a smile, “Brother, we know.”

Ning Yuting looked at Chu Qingyue affectionately. “I’ll pick you up on the tenth of September. I’ll prepare everything. You don’t have to worry about anything.” Chu Qingyue lowered her head shyly and nodded.

Grandpa Chu smiled and said, “Yuting, we understand. Be careful on the way with your grandfather. Send us a message if there is anything.”

Ning Yuting agreed and said to Chu Qingyue, “Come with us to the county city.

I have something to tell you.”

Chu Qingyue nodded.

The carriage slowly moved forward…

In the carriage, Ning Yuting could no longer care about the fact that his grandfather was still around. He held Chu Qingyue’s hand. “When I go back, I’ll send someone to protect you.”

Chu Qingyue felt that she was not that precious and did not need protection.

She immediately rejected him. “No need. No one will hurt me.”

Ning Yuting said with some concern, “I’m afraid that Luo Yinhuan will.”

Chu Qingyue shook her head and said, “I’ve already reconciled with her. Speaking of which, it’s strange. She actually came to apologize to me.”

Ning Yuting did not tell Chu Qingyue that he had gone to look for Luo Yinhuan. It was only right to take care of his fiancee. There was no need to shout about it. “She must have been stung by her conscience and realized her mistake.”

“Probably. Let’s not talk about her.” Chu Qingyue did not like Luo Yinhuan and did not want to mention her at all.

“Alright, let’s not talk about her. But Qingyue, do you really not want protection?”

Chu Qingyue shook her head. “Yuting, having someone follow me all the time is too strange. I’ll feel very uncomfortable.”

Ning Yuting compromised. “Then protect yourself and wait for me to marry you.”

Chu Qingyue reached out and pinched Ning Yuting gently. She said softly, “Grandpa is still here.”

Grandpa Ning closed his eyes to rest and tried his best to reduce his presence. He was happy that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law were on good terms.

“It’s fine.” Ning Yuting interlocked his fingers with Chu Qingyue. He really hoped that time would pass quickly and he could marry Qingyue as soon as possible.

Chu Qingyue was also very reluctant to be separated from him. She gently leaned her head on Ning Yuting’s shoulder, trying to leave as many sweet memories as possible to reminisce while he was not around.

Eight strong young men came to Li Qingyu’s house in high spirits.

Chu Tianfeng said loudly, “Auntie, we’re all ready.”

Li Qingyu and the others were counting the betrothal gifts at home. Hearing this, Li Qingyu walked out quickly and distributed the eight pieces of red cloth in her hand to the eight of them. “Tie the red cloth around your waist.”

The eight young men were specially hired by Li Qingyu to carry the betrothal gifts. They were energetic and strong.

“Alright.” Chu Tianfeng took the red cloth and tied it around his waist. This was a sign that they were the bearers of the betrothal gifts. Li Qingyu saw that it was not tied properly and helped adjust it. She valued her eldest son’s marriage very much.

Li Qingyu waved at them. “Come in with me. Two people carry a box.”

The eight of them followed Li Qingyu into the house. As soon as they entered, they were dazzled by the four red boxes. They thought to themselves, Auntie’s family is too rich.

There were red silk flowers tied to the betrothal gift box. It looked very festive.

After carrying the betrothal gift box, they set off.

The moment they went out, they immediately became the center of attention in the village..
