Chapter 138: No Risk
Suddenly, I felt a little panicked and asked, "Do you think my grandma will be okay?"
Mrs. He understood the hardships of the grandparents and grandchildren best. She came over and comforted them, "Yaoyao, be good, it's okay. Auntie will come to your house later." Patting the little girl's head to comfort her made He Yao feel much more at ease.
She raised her head with a smile and said, "Uncle He came back from town and brought some meat to our house. Grandma said that my aunt's family is kind, so they take care of us like this."
As he spoke, he stood up from the chair, knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times. His movements were so fast that no one in the room had time to react.
He Yao looked at Xiao Tao, then looked at Xia Yining, as if she had made a decision, and said loudly, "Aunt, please buy Yaoyao as a maid, and use the money to find a good doctor to check your health."
"From now on, Yaoyao will stay by Ning'er's side and protect her well."
Mother He: “!!”
She was so frightened that her heart was trembling. Nanny Tong Gui reached out to help the little girl up and patted the dirt off her knees.
She consoled him, "Why do you have to think so much when you are so young? Adults will help you with your affairs. I will ask a doctor to check your health even if you don't need me to sell you. As for the money for the consultation, I'll pay for it first."
Xia Yining: “!!”
He was so shocked that he forgot to chew the duck meat in his mouth. He looked at He Yao blankly and said, "Why do you want to sell yourself? Doesn't Yaoyao consider Ning'er a friend? Do you think mother won't lend you money?"
A few words hit the nail on the head. He Yao felt a little awkward, snapping her fingers together. She stood there with red eyes and a twitching nose. She looked at the eyes on her hands and quickly shook her head.
He said anxiously: "No, Yaoyao is a child, still a girl, many people in the village don't believe that Yaoyao will pay it back in the future."
"I thought that my aunt and Ning'er were the same as them..." The voice became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.
No matter which dynasty, there are always people who favor boys over girls, especially in villages where boys are needed to carry on the family line. They will be more stubborn and look down on girls from the bottom of their hearts.
"This world was born under women's skirts, but it does not allow them to grow wildly."
She sighed helplessly and said, "There's no need to sell yourself. Your grandma would be so upset if she knew. When we get back to town, I'll take you to see a doctor."
He Yao nodded excitedly and assured again and again: "Aunt He and Ning'er, don't worry, Yaoyao will definitely pay back the money and will never default on it."
Hearing the little girl's assurance, Mrs. He shook her head sympathetically, stuffed two more duck rolls into her hands, and said with a smile, "Eat more, there's plenty at home."
Just now she took a closer look at He Yao's clothes. Although they were neat, they were a little messy, which was very different from their previous tidy appearance. At first she thought it was the child who was making a fuss and messed them up while playing in the village.
Now listen to...
If even the children know that the adults are not feeling well, then there must be something seriously wrong with their health, so they think of going home to check after dinner.
When Old Man He came back carrying farm tools, he looked unhappy. After washing his hands, he drank two bowls of water before saying, "The situation is not good. There is less and less water in the river. It is difficult to irrigate the fields."
"Even the water level in the wells has dropped a lot. If this continues, we will have to flee from famine."
Thinking of her childhood memories, Mrs. He couldn't help but tremble, and asked with fear in her voice: "Old man, how much longer do you think you can hold on?"
Old Man He looked up at the sky. The sun was so hot that it could dry a person out. He said uncertainly, "At most half a month. If it doesn't rain, we won't be able to survive."
There was silence in the house. Even He Qing and He Yao understood that if it didn't rain there would be drought, no water to drink, and no crops to grow, and many people would starve to death.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Xia Yining said, "God is merciful and will not let the people suffer. Don't worry, Dad and Mom."
At the same time, she was talking to Chi Yan in her mind. The dragon had been calling her just now, and her brain was buzzing. She asked speechlessly, "Yan Yan, you are a steady dragon. Don't shout so loudly next time."
"It's easy to kill people, so you can change your master."
I saw Chi Yan staring at a certain spot in the space, and said in disbelief: "The goddess dragon has come to the world, and praying for rain for the people of the world can accumulate merits."
Xia Yining: “???”
With a frown on his face, he asked, "What are you talking about? I know Shenlong, it's you."
"Who is that goddess?"
"No, that's not right. Where did you see that? He looks a bit neurotic."
Chiyan: “…”
Looking at the words floating in the air, he sighed and replied, "In your space, space space~!"
"It should be a spirit. Could it have developed intelligence? That's not right. Your space shouldn't have space spirits. Or has it changed after years of dormancy?"
There were many people at home, so Xia Yining couldn't go in right away. He just said that they could talk again in the evening when they had time, and then he followed his family to his uncle's house for dinner.
When she left, she gave the remaining roast duck to her two friends, thinking about helping them improve their lives, such as selling embroidery? She didn't know how to do it, and holding an embroidery needle would strain her eyes, unless she had superb skills and sold it at a high price.
It would be great if she was a system, so she could buy some books and let them study on their own, which would be much better.
Seeing her frown, He Pozi advised: "Everyone has a path to take. Ning'er, don't worry too much. The arm cannot twist the thigh. We have to live the way the people above tell us to live."
"You must not be the first to stand out. It is always dangerous to be targeted. Ning'er is so smart, she should know what mother is talking about."
Xia Yining shuddered instantly. She lived in ancient times where people could be killed at any time. Knowing this, she wiped her face to save her life.
She nodded obediently and said in a baby voice, "Don't worry, mother. Ning'er understands."
He Di had been standing at the door waiting for someone. When he saw his brother and sister-in-law coming over, he reached out and hugged Xia Yining and walked into the yard, saying, "Look, your father usually watches you closely, so uncle doesn't even have a chance to hug Ning'er. But today, he won't let go no matter what."
After saying that, he turned away from Old Man He and returned to his look of disgust, as if the person he was waiting for at the door just now was not him. Xia Yining just thought that the old man in front of him was very cute. He stretched out his hand to pull his beard and said, "Then Uncle, you must hold her tight. Auntie won't give it to her even if she wants it."
He Di: “!!”
He looked at her with a somewhat hurt look in his eyes and said weakly, "I thought Ning'er was a simpleton, but it turns out she's smart, and a very smart little smart person."
"You know that uncle is afraid of his wife on purpose, you are such a bad boy~!"
She made everyone laugh. It seemed that wherever the little girl was, there would always be laughter. She was such a lovely happy person.
