Jin Xiaotao's expression did not change, the hand holding the lotus leaf secretly exerted force, and her fingernail deeply pinched the center of her palm. A red mark was left.
Taking a deep breath, she said in a joyful tone, ”The Young Madame of the Zhi County Elder's family?”
”That's right!” Jin Xiaofeng could not hide her expression, ”My mother has already arranged everything for me. Next year, when that child Jin Xiaolou has grown up, I will carry that child and go up.”
Jin Xiaotao felt her vision blur, and she could not help but take two steps back.
The bright sunlight hit on Jin Xiaofeng's half-squinting eyelids, making her feel pain.
”Aiyo, what are you doing!” Jin Xiaofeng tugged at Jin Xiaotao, ”Keep it up, do you still want to go into the city?”
Jin Xiaotao frowned, she bit her lower lip, slowed down for a moment, and then handed the lotus leaf over …
When Jin Xiaolou returned with the half basket of loquats and the large bundle of wild rice, she had already hidden herself in the dense and dense branches and leaves of the locust tree, and was rubbing her sore shoulder.
Looking at the ploughed ground, Jin Xiaolou was satisfied. She waved to Gao Lang who was hiding in the grass shed not far away.
Gao Lang was truly more obedient than the big golden hair that Jin Xiaolou had raised in his previous life. When he saw Jin Xiaolou wave his hand, he obediently ran over.
However, Gao Lang's clean hands still held onto the two osmanthus cakes.
Jin Xiaolou had never eaten an ancient cake before, but just by looking at it with her naked eye, she was able to tell that the pastry was made in an exquisite manner that did not seem to belong to this village.
”Where did this come from?” Jin Xiaolou was suspicious.
”It was given to me by a passing uncle.” Gao Lang still had half a piece in his mouth, the way he spoke sounded vague, fragmented osmanthus flowers fell in front of his clothes.
Jin Xiaolou lightly patted off the dust on Gao Lang's clothes. ”Uncle? Which uncle? ”
”Eldest Uncle is Eldest Uncle. He's tall and big.” Gao Lang gestured a little, clumsily and seriously saying, ”He even grew a full face of beard, making him look like a monkey.”
Chang An who was sitting on the locust tree was so angry that he almost fell down. Shameless... enslaved him, exploited him, ate his food, said he was like a monkey...
Gao Lang then said: ”My wife, this dessert is really delicious, I was reluctant to finish it, so I left two pieces for you.”
Jin Xiaolou's heart warmed. She didn't think that being targeted by a fool would have such a feeling. She let out a long sigh.
Just as he opened his mouth, Gao Lang took a piece of osmanthus cake and placed it into his mouth.
It was very sweet. The entrance was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. It was as if he wouldn't feel tired even if he plowed another 500 mu of land!
Jin Xiaolou threw the basket to the side, then pulled Gao Lang and the others and planted all the wild rice inside it.
