How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 217 The atmosphere between these two is a little sweet.

Just as Xiao Gousheng finished thinking, Shiba ran towards Dong Laoqi and the young general. "Sister, what brings you here?"

sister?
Just as Xiaogou Sheng was about to say, "Where do you have a sister?", he remembered that he actually did have a sister, a sister with superhuman strength.

The little dog looked closely and confirmed that she was indeed her grandmother's goddaughter. She had just changed a lot.

Lu Taohua used to be a typical peasant girl, but now her whole demeanor has changed. She must have worked very hard this year, and endured a lot of hardship. "Hello, Auntie! Uncle, how did you recognize me at first glance? I didn't even recognize you!"

As she ran, Shiba said, "Because my aunt smiled at her."

Little Dog Sheng: "..." Adults' thoughts are just not as pure as children's. When Shiba saw Dong Laoqi smiling at someone, she wondered if the other person was someone she knew. But what she really thought was whether Dong Laoqi had taken a liking to that person.

Lu Taohua jumped down from her horse. "Greetings, little brother. Greetings, little niece. I'm here on business."

Eighteen: "What a coincidence. Sis, you look so impressive right now."

Little Dog Sheng thought the Emperor must have specifically sent Lu Taohua here on official business. "Auntie, have you been promoted now?"

"Yes. I have a hundred people under me now."

Eighteen: "Sis, you're so amazing, I'm so envious."

Lu Taohua looked at Shiba and smiled, "You're very capable too. I heard from my mother that you're in charge of several hundred children now."

"Yes. We're both great."

“Yes, we’re all amazing.” Lu Taohua picked up the three little bald boys in one go. “Mommy missed you so much. Let me see if you’ve grown taller and heavier?”

The three little bald boys said, "We've gotten heavier and taller. We miss our mother/great-grandmother too."

Little Dog Sheng: "Is everyone at home alright?"

"Alright. Mother brought you quite a few things. And who is this young master?"

"Young Master Xi Huaizhou".

Xi Huaizhou bowed to Lu Taohua. "Greetings, Aunt."

"Hello, my mother also brought you something."

Xi Huaizhou was quite touched. "Thank you."

Old Dong Qi: "Let's go inside and talk."

After entering the house, Lu Taohua explained what errand she was on. Xiaogou Sheng then recounted what had happened to them.

Qian Laifu was quite happy to learn that Lu Taohua had arrived. "How many days can you stay here?"

"Three days."

"You can only stay for three days?"

"Yes. The Duke of Jin said he would send me out on errands frequently in the future."

"This..." Qian Laifu felt that this was a good thing, but at the same time he felt that Lu Taohua was, after all, a girl.

Lu Taohua looked at Qian Laifu's conflicted expression and smiled, "I quite enjoy being out on business. I'm very happy that the Duke of Jin is willing to entrust me with this task."

Okay. "Then be careful. Even though you're strong, you can't fight off four hands."

“I know, don’t worry. The Duke of Jin has assigned me a deputy who has served the Duke of Jin for many years.”

Qian Laifu was relieved. "Then you should discuss things with them more often."

"it is good."

The next morning, as soon as Xiao Gou Sheng arrived in the backyard, he saw Dong Laoqi and Lu Taohua chatting and exchanging moves.

The little dog rubbed its eyes. Why was there such a sweet atmosphere between these two? "Good morning, Auntie, Little Aunt."

Old Dong casually replied with a "Good morning".

Lu Taohua smiled at Xiaogou Sheng. "You've come to practice martial arts too?"

"Yes. Auntie, I also want to spar with you."

"You fight Sanhu and his gang first. I'll fight you after your aunt leaves. Your aunt will stay here for three days."

"Ok."

A little while later, the three little bald guys and Wu Niu and Liu Niu also arrived.

The little dog Sheng seized an opportunity to sidle up to Shiba and whispered, "Uncle, don't you think there's a strange atmosphere between your brother Dong and your aunt?"

Eighteen looked in the direction of Dong Laoqi and Lu Taohua. "No."

"Take another look." Eighteen looked again. "They're closer than before."

"I knew the atmosphere between them was a bit strange, didn't I?"

Eighteen glanced sideways at the little dog. "Are you still half asleep?"

"You're awake?"

"Then why do you find it strange? Brother Dong and Auntie weren't familiar with each other before, but they naturally became closer once they got to know each other."

"No. Their closeness is not ordinary closeness."

"Of course they're not ordinary; they're both family members."

"..." She was indeed still half asleep. Why was she discussing this with her uncle? Her uncle was intelligent, but all he cared about was family. "Uncle, you continue practicing your martial arts. I won't disturb you."

"Focus on your training. Don't overthink things."

"understood."

The little dog, Sheng, moved closer to Qian Laifu. "Grandpa, don't you think there's a red thread connecting Uncle Dong and my aunt?"

Qian Laifu laughed as soon as he heard that. "What are you thinking about? Your Uncle Dong and your aunt are both good kids, but they don't look good together at all."

Even Little Dog Sheng knew that Dong Laoqi and Lu Taohua weren't a good match. But she just felt that the atmosphere between them was a little sweet. "Okay."

During breakfast, Dong Laoqi naturally sat down in the empty seat next to Lu Taohua. "What would you like to eat? I'll get it for you."

"Thank you, I can take it myself."

"It was just a small thing," said Old Dong, placing a few meat buns in front of Lu Taohua. "These buns smell delicious, have some more."

Seeing that he had already taken it, Lu Taohua stopped refusing. "Okay."

Little Dog Sheng: "Grandma Auntie, I want to eat that bun too."

Old Dong took two steamed buns and tossed them to Little Dog Sheng. "Catch!"

"Okay!" Little Dog Sheng thought to herself as she took the bun: If she wasn't mistaken, her grandma would definitely be very happy. Her grandma was afraid that her Uncle Dong thought no girl in the world was good enough for him.

While eating his steamed bun, the puppy secretly glanced at Dong Laoqi.

Eighteen served the puppy a bowl of porridge. "Eat properly."

"Oh." The puppy looked away.

After dinner, everyone went off to do their work.

Lu Taohua stayed for three days before leaving.

Everyone went to see her off when she left.

Xiao Gou Sheng then observed Dong Laoqi's expression.

After dinner, Xiao Gou Sheng approached Dong Laoqi. "Auntie, I want to go to the night market. Will you come with me?"

"Row."

At the night market, Little Dog Sheng casually bought a few things. "Auntie, are you in a good mood?"

"Yes. Is there anything else you want to buy? I'll buy it for you."

The puppy chose a comb. "I want to buy this."

Okay. Is there anything else you'd like to buy?

"That's all. Go back now."

Back at the hotel, as he dismounted, Xiao Gousheng casually asked, "When did you start liking peach blossoms?"

Old Dong laughed upon hearing this. "You figured it out?"

The little dog, Sheng, laughed too. "You knew I'd figure it out?"

"Of course," said Dong Laoqi as he dismounted. "I've known you since you were shorter than my calf."

"Hehe... My grandma is afraid you'll stay single forever. Why do you like my aunt? The two of you don't look good together at all."

"you guess."

The puppy thought for a moment. "You died once because of your beauty, so you don't care whether the other person is good-looking or not?"

*Facepalm* Thank you so much for correcting my mistake, sweetheart! You worked so hard! Wishing you happiness every day! Sending love! (﹡o﹡)(*з)(ε｀*) *kiss*
