Chapter 198 Introduction
"I have never had so many people eat with me. My father always comes back very late, so I eat alone at noon every day. I don't have a mother. My father said that my mother got sick and died when I couldn't remember. , I miss my mother!" Wu Xinyi said in a tearful voice.

"Good boy, you will come here often from now on, and Grandma Xu will eat with you. You see there are so many people in our family, and they all like you." Mrs. Wang said with some distress.

"Really? Then I will come often from now on. Grandma Xu, please don't find me annoying." Wu Xinyi said in a timid tone.

"How could it be! Xinyi is so beautiful, it's too late for us to like you!" Wang said.

Wu Xinyi raised her head and glanced around the people sitting next to her. Seeing that they were all looking at her with smiles and kindness on their faces, she didn't feel sad anymore. She picked up the bowl and started eating again.

After dinner, Qibao was going to take Wu Xinyi around the village. Yaya also wanted to follow and kept following Qibao. When Zhi'er saw his playmate was about to leave, he put down the toys in his hands and followed suit.

Mrs. Qian couldn't hold her back and was a little helpless.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang said: "Chunlan Furui, you two follow Qibao and help keep an eye on these two little ones. Don't let them get close to the water."

"Yes, old lady." They both replied in unison.

Qibao took Wu Xinyi to his greenhouse and said, "This is my vegetable greenhouse. There are many vegetables grown in it."

Wu Xinyi said: "I heard my father say that the vegetables in Zuixianlou are provided by your family. I have eaten them a few times and they are very delicious. Can I go in and see what these vegetables look like?"

"of course!"

Since everyone is busy building houses now, they only need to take care of the vegetables in the greenhouse in the morning, so there are not many people in the greenhouse.

Qibao led Wu Xinyi into the greenhouse, and the two little ones followed.

Wu Xinyi looked at the vegetables in the greenhouse curiously and said, "What kind of purple vegetables are these?"

Qibao said: "This is eggplant. The eggplant box we eat for lunch is made of it."

Wu Xinyi said: "It turns out that this is what it looks like when it grows in the ground, and it is really different from the cooked food."

Qibao took Wu Xinyi to every greenhouse and looked at the vegetables.

Yaya held a big red tomato and smiled happily. Qibao picked the tomato and said, "You can also eat this raw one. It's sour and a little sweet."

Wu Xinyi said: "I know this, this scrambled egg with red fruits is particularly delicious!"

Qibao said: "It's called a tomato. I'll take it out and wash it later. It's also delicious raw."

Wu Xinyi nodded, and happily picked the reddest one.

Qibao picked a few more and gave one to everyone.

Qibao took her to his orchard again, but Wu Xinyi was pleasantly surprised. He picked a strawberry and said, "This is so beautiful, it must be delicious!"

Qibao said: "The filling in the snack you ate before was made of it. The freshly picked ones are the best."

Wu Xinyi didn't bother to wash it off with water. She took out her handkerchief and wiped it, then stuffed it into her mouth, and the sweet juice overflowed in her mouth.

"It's so delicious! It's so sweet, I like it so much!" Wu Xinyi jumped up and down while eating.

Qibao said: "If you like to eat, I can bring some with you when you go back."

Wu Xinyi said: "Okay, next time I will bring something I like to share with you."

Passing by where the villagers were working, everyone was a little curious when they saw the strange girl next to Qibao.

Uncle Xu explained: "This is the county magistrate's daughter. I came here today to play with my Qibao."

When everyone heard this, they were extremely surprised. They did not expect that this person was the daughter of the county magistrate. They all looked at Wu Xinyi respectfully.

Wu Xinyi, however, did not act like a young lady and greeted the villagers very kindly.

Everyone returned the greetings one after another. "Whose house is this? It's so beautiful! I've never seen a house like this before!" Wu Xinyi asked, pointing to a house.

Qibao said: "This is the house of our village chief's family. It is newly built. From now on, every family in our village will live in a house like this."

Wu Xinyi said: "No wonder so many people are building houses in the village!"

The sun was gradually setting in the west. Qibao saw that it was late and he had played all afternoon, so he planned to take Wu Xinyi home.

As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I saw a carriage parked there.

Wu Xinyi said disappointedly: "This is my family's carriage. My father should have sent someone to pick me up."

Sure enough, a man dressed as a government servant got out of the carriage and came forward and said: "Miss, the county magistrate sent me to pick you up."

At this time, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Zhang came out of the house, holding two baskets in their hands, and said, "Xinyi, here are some snacks and fruits I prepared. You can take them home and eat them slowly. Come when you are finished." Take it from Grandma Xu’s house.”

Wu Xinyi said: "Thank you, Grandma Xu. I'm going back. Xinyi will come see you next time."

Wang nodded and put the basket into the carriage.

Wu Xinyi reluctantly hugged Qibao and said, "Thank you for taking me to visit your village today and letting me see a lot of interesting things. This is my first time! I had a lot of fun today. I will do it next time Can I also invite you to my house?"

Qibao nodded and said, "Of course!"

Wu Xinyi let go of Qibao and said, "Then we've decided, but my house is not as fun as yours."

After putting Wu Xinyi into the carriage, the government servant drove the carriage to the town.

Wu Xinyi stuck her head out of the car window and waved goodbye to the Xu family.

Watching the carriage go away, Wang said: "This child Xinyi has no mother, and it's rare that the county magistrate can teach her so well. It's not easy!"

Mrs. Zhang also said: "Xinyi is over eight years old this year. It has been several years since her mother passed away. The county magistrate has not remarried yet. She is really an infatuated person!"

Qibao slightly agreed in his heart. As a county magistrate, it would not be difficult to marry again. He was probably afraid that the one he would marry would be bad for Wu Xinyi.

Not long after everyone returned to the house, Xu Wenwu and the others came back.

"Sister, has anyone come to the village today? When I just came back, I saw a carriage leaving our village." Xiao Wu asked.

"It's the county magistrate's daughter who came to play at my house and just left." Qibao said.

"Why did the magistrate's daughter come to my house? We don't know each other."

Wang answered: "She came to play with Qibao, and she will probably come to our house frequently in the future. If you encounter her, don't bully her."

"I know grandma, since she is my sister's friend, we will definitely not bully her." Xiao Wu said.

Wang said: "Okay, wash your hands and eat quickly!"

The government servant drove the carriage to the door of the county magistrate's house, and Wu Xinyi got out of the carriage with a disappointed look on her face.

The county magistrate had been waiting for his daughter to come back at the door. Seeing her expression, he quickly asked with concern: "Xinyi, what's wrong with you? Is the Xu family treating you badly?"

Wu Xinyi shook her head and said: "Dad, they are very good to me. They give me a lot of delicious food and pick up vegetables for me. They are very caring about me. Sister Yue'er also took me to visit their village. I had a great time. .”

Magistrate Wu was surprised and said: "Since we were having so much fun, why is it like this now?"

"Dad, I finally made a good friend, but we broke up not long after we played together, and no one was with me at home." Wu Xinyi said aggrievedly.
