Xiao Jia Village was not considered close to the Guest House. After walking for almost two hours, the wedding procession arrived at the Xiao Jia Village.

The Xiao Jia Village looked much better than the West Thousand Family Guest House. Xu Hui could see from the cracks in the roof that many of the houses were made of brick and tile, as if their lives were considered quite prosperous.

She remembered walking into a large yard first, then into the top room, then turning around and walking through a row of eaves before entering the room. However, he felt that the Xiao Clan's courtyard was very large. Thinking about how the three generations of the Xiao Clan lived together, it was normal for a few people to live there.

Looking at the room he was in now, Xu Hui frowned. It was a new house after all. Why would it be like a warehouse with so many things piled up?

There was a large room with a long brick bed in the middle of the room. On the bed was a large wooden chest that she had brought along with her from her marriage. There was a wooden table and two chairs on the floor under the brick bed. On one side was a pile of old items, which looked a bit messy.

Xu Hui could not help but stand up and walked over to look at the piles of things. The old tables and chairs, the tattered mats and baskets seemed to be old furniture that was not used, but what was at the bottom?

Xu Hui could not help but extend her hand and push away the things that were piled up. The thing that was pressed down on the bottom long square shelf looked like a loom. There was also a piece of smooth wood with two pointed ends that was randomly thrown beside him. Wasn't this the same as the shuttle that was used to weave cloth?

Xu Hui could not help but want to move the things on it away. She wanted to see clearly, if it really was the loom, she would be able to rely on her own hands to earn money to support him.

Before Xu Hui could pick up the rotten stool at the top, the door was slowly pushed open. Xu Hui immediately sat back on the bed and covered her head with the cover.

A pair of small feet slowly walked into Xu Hui's line of sight, then stopped moving.

Xu Hui could not help but lift the hood. It was a three or four year old skinny girl with shiny black eyes.

She was looking at him curiously with her crooked finger. She looked silly and cute. Xu Hui bent down and asked softly, ”Who are you?” Are you hungry? ”Don't bite your finger. Come, this is for you to eat!”

Xu Hui took a palm-sized pancake from the table and handed it to the kid. The kid's eyes lit up when he saw the food. He stuck out his fingers and hurriedly took it over, taking small bites like a squirrel.

Seeing the child chewing so fast, with his neck stretched out, Xu Hui knew that the child was hungry. She quickly handed a bowl of water and said, ”Eat slower, eat slower. There are still a lot of water left. Don't worry, I'll give it all to you!”

The little kid gulped down a few mouthfuls of water and swallowed the cake. Then he slowed down and ate a piece of cake. He drank some more water and patted his belly to indicate that he was full.

The child was thin but had delicate facial features. Xu Hui liked the look of the child as she smilingly patted her belly. She picked the child up and sat on her lap.

Touching the child's thin back, Xu Hui smiled and asked, ”What's your name? How old are you? Whose little child is it? ”

”Niuniu!” The little kid raised his finger and pointed at himself. Xu Hui smiled and asked, ”You're called Niu Niu?”

The little kid laughed so hard that her mouth split open. However, when Xu Hui asked her about her parents and how old she was, all she would do was play around with her fingers and not answer, or gesture with her hands and say some vague words. Xu Hui furrowed her brows. This child had probably never been raised properly before, and it looked like he wasn't small, so he couldn't even speak clearly.

At that moment, Xiao Dazong walked in with two bowls of food. When he saw Xu Hui carrying Niu Niu, he could not help but blink in surprise.

When the child saw Xiao Dazong, he jumped down from Xu Hui's body and ran over to hug Xiao Dazong's leg and shouted, ”Brother!”

This was actually Xiao Da Yong's little sister!

It wasn't that his sister was almost six years old, but how could she be so young?

Xiao Dazong saw Xu Hui frown and said, ”This is my sister, Niu Niu. She's still young and doesn't know much. Is she messing with you?”

”No, Niuniu is very obedient, I really like her!” Xu Hui smiled at the Niuniu who peeked at him from the side of Xiao Da Yong's leg and said softly.
