When the sky was getting dark, the sound of Wang's father's cattle cart was finally heard outside the door. The couple was driving the newly purchased pigs into the pig pen and feeding the family's hard-working cattle husband with water and fodder.

Xuanyuan Xi put on her shoes and got out of bed, walked out of the second door and went to the front yard to greet her.

The Wang family yard is divided into a front yard and a backyard by a wall. The backyard is a residence, and the front yard has a stove, a woodshed, a cowshed, a pigsty, and a small vegetable patch. Once the door on the wall is closed, the front yard and the backyard are They were completely separated.

This was specially added by the couple because they were afraid that their daughter would be frightened by the scene of pig killing.My daughter used to be sick and could hardly get out of bed. Once the door to the room was closed and separated by the courtyard wall, the sound was not noticeable.

Butcher Wang looked at the little girl running over with a smile on her face, like a little cannonball. She was wearing a pink cotton skirt newly bought by his wife, and a hair tie of the same color with two small pulleys hanging around her chubby cheeks as she ran. , looked innocent, cute, and full of energy, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his honest face.

This seemed to be the first time he smiled since his daughter's death.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reach out and pat the top of the hair of the little girl who ran to him.

Xuanyuan Xi raised her head. She originally just wanted to say a few polite words, but the sound of the child's milky milk made her whole body soft and cute.

"Mom and dad are tired after a hard day's work. It's so hot. Go and wash your faces. I'll get you some water."

After saying that, Xuanyuan Xi felt choked in her heart. It had been three days and she still couldn't stand the "cute" feeling in her body. It was so unfeminine.

Then she ran to the kitchen on the right to pour water. Butcher Wang kept shouting behind her, "Slow down, don't be in a hurry, be careful of falling."

After pouring two bowls of cold boiled water, Xuanyuan Xi brought it to the couple. She walked with her calves, and she had to control her body to keep the water from spilling.

The couple took the bowl, looked at each other, smiled, and drank it all.

It seems good to have such a baby girl to replace my daughter.

Yang put away the bowl and put it back in the kitchen, then took a small bamboo basket from the bullock cart, and led Xuanyuan Xi back to the backyard, "Yan Yan, are you good at home today? Are you hungry? Mom bought you something delicious. It’s better, please give me a cushion first.”

The daughter used to be weak and could only lie in bed to rest and not run around, so the couple could safely leave the child at home and only come back at noon to cook a meal and check on their daughter.

Now it was Xuanyuan Xi. Yang was a little worried at first, but although Xuanyuan Xi could run and jump, she was also extremely sensible and annoying.

She picked up Xuanyuan Xi and put him on the chair, then took out an oil paper bag from the bamboo basket and opened it. It was a few small candied fruits, specially bought for the child's sweet mouth.

"Yanyan, try it quickly. Is it delicious?"

Xuanyuan Xi stretched out her little fleshy hand, picked up a piece and brought it to Yang's mouth, "Mom, you eat first, and I will eat after you finish."

The smile on Yang's round face became a little bigger. She took the hand of the newly baked girl and gently bit the candied fruit. After tasting it carefully, she touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "It's so sweet. It’s so sweet that it’s so sweet to my mother’s heart, Yanyan wants to try it too.”

Xuanyuan Xi did not eat, but picked up another piece of candied fruit and gave it to Butcher Wang. Butcher Wang took it with narrowed eyes, then turned around and ran back to eat a piece himself.

Although for Xuanyuan Xi, who has seen the royal delicacies and tasted all kinds of modern cuisine, the taste of this candied fruit is really not good, and it is a bit too sweet, but she can still feel the feelings of the Wang family and his wife.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Xi couldn't help but feel that it was not worth it for the couple. How sad would they be if the child they truly loved as their daughter stole all the family's savings?

I wanted to scold the original owner for that naughty kid again, but after thinking about it, I decided to let it go. Don't disturb the heavens again and thunder in the daytime.

Yang stood up, looked at Xuanyuan Xi lovingly, and said softly: "Yan Yan, you eat here first, mother is going to cook."

It's not like he was a real child. Xuanyuan Xi couldn't bear to eat and drink for free, so he immediately jumped off the stool and pulled Yang's sleeve, "Mom, I'm going too, I want to help mom cook!"

Xuanyuan Xi had proposed to help the family two days ago, but neither husband nor wife agreed.

First, the child's fever has just subsided and his body is not yet well.

Second, the child was still young, fair, tender, and polished, so they were reluctant to let her work.

However, Mrs. Yang looked at the little girl's firm eyes and thought that her family was just an ordinary family and could not afford to raise a young lady. Moreover, it was impossible for her daughter to marry into her husband's family and not do any work. As soon as her mind changed, she agreed.

Xuanyuan Xi squatted on the ground, helping to wash some vegetables and being careful not to get his clothes wet.

Because their daughter had just left, the couple were still on a vegetarian diet for the time being. Yang fried some tofu and green vegetables, and made an extra portion of egg soup for Xuanyuan Xi to replenish his health.

Although Yang has no cooking skills, for a farmer, if he can eat well, there is nothing to fault.

When Butcher Wang was busy, he turned around and saw the scene in the kitchen. It was warm and full of life. The well-behaved and sensible daughter, the virtuous and capable wife, and the well-off life. Everything made him not regret picking up this daughter.

After the family finished eating, Xuanyuan Xi kept acting coquettishly and begged the couple to take her out for a walk.

The two of them thought that their daughter could not go out before, but if such a little living treasure was kept locked up all the time, she might get sick, so they agreed.

After clearing away the dishes, the couple took Xuanyuan Xi and went out for a walk.
