Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 523 Playing

"Originally, I wanted to come earlier, but my father was really busy in the yamen and couldn't get away." Gu Yunxi explained, "I said I would come alone first, but my father also said that Uncle Bai has some feelings for me. It’s a life-saving grace. If I’m the only one who comes, if he doesn’t come, it won’t be appropriate, and I’ll have to wait for a few days.”

Bai Lixia pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You didn't say before that you are the daughter of Magistrate Gu's family."

 Officials are different from ordinary people, Bai Lixia still knows this.

"If you don't say it, it won't affect us being friends." Gu Yunxi chuckled.

"That's true..." Bai Lixia scratched her ears and laughed too.

There were guests at home, especially a little girl who was about the same age as the children at home. Bai Shuiliu and Bai Zhuye also came to meet and talk.

Gu Yunxi is outgoing, lively and laughs. She originally liked Bai Lixia as a friend in need, but now she sees that her sister is also kind and talkative, so they started chatting enthusiastically.

They are about the same age, and they are both well-educated, so they soon started playing together.

"It's very warm today. It's my first time back at the farmhouse. I want to run outside. Can you take me for a walk?" Gu Yunxi suggested with a smile.

"Right now..." Bai Lixia thought for a while, "I'm afraid there's nothing going on in the village, but now the wheat is turning green, so you can go to the fields to see if there are any wild vegetables to dig."

When Gu Yunxi heard this, he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay, let's go dig wild vegetables."

As he said that, he jumped down from the stool and started to walk out.

"It's better to tell your father and our parents." Bai Shuiliu said.

Although Gu Yunxi has a lively temperament and they have fun with each other, she is the daughter of the county magistrate's family. I don't know if County Magistrate Gu is willing to let Gu Yunxi do these things.

"Well, I have to say something. Also, do you want to change your clothes?" Bai Lixia suggested, "The ground is full of dirt, so I'm afraid you won't be able to wear this clothes."

Gu Yunxi's dress is a bit long and is of a beige color that doesn't stand up to dirt. If she goes for a walk in the fields like this, she'll probably look like a local monkey when she comes back.

"Well..." Gu Yunxi nodded, "I'll go and talk to my dad first."

After saying that, he ran out quickly and came to Gu Xiuwen, "Dad, I want to follow Li Xia to dig wild vegetables in the fields."

Gu Xiuwen hesitated for a moment.

It's not that Gu Yunxi can't do the work of digging wild vegetables, it's just that Gu Xiuwen was a little worried about the last time he took pictures of flowers. In addition, he also felt that it was a bit troublesome for the children of the Bai family.

Bai Shitang said, "We are all working in the fields right now. People in Baijia Village take good care of each other. Magistrate Gu can rest assured."

“The children are used to playing around, but now they have become very attached to Miss Gu, and they are probably very happy.”

 The implication is that Baijia Village is very peaceful, and Bai Lixia's children are happy to take care of Yunxi.

Seeing this, Gu Xiuwen nodded, "Go, but you are not allowed to run around alone. You must follow your two sisters closely, so as not to cause trouble to others."

"I know, I know." Seeing Gu Xiuwen's agreement, Gu Yunxi happily followed Bai Lixia to the house to change clothes.

Gu Yunxi was about the same height as Bai Lixia, so she put on the clothes Bai Lixia usually wore. She felt that the things on her bun were too cumbersome, so she simply combed her hair again and tied it up again with a hair rope.
