Transmigrated as A Farm Girl Making Her Family Rich

Chapter 89: Chapter 88: Feeling Rare

The carriage of Tang Mansion had just arrived at the front door when a group of maids and old women ran out from the open gate.

These people were all servants sent by Madam and the young madam to welcome the young Master.

Mrs. Li, having entered the county in the carriage, no longer kept her eyes closed. When the carriage stopped, she held the young Master, ready to alight and noticed that the young Master had opened his blurred eyes and said:

“Wet nurse, have we arrived home?”

“Yes, young Master, we have arrived at the entrance of Tang Mansion. Are you hungry? Let’s go inside and have someone bring you some food.”

A tender expression appeared on Mrs. Li’s face. She treated the young Master as if he were her own child, after all, he was the child she breastfed, and she had a special affection for him.

In the face of the young Master, she couldn’t help but radiate a maternal glow.

“Mmm, wet nurse, I need to pee.” Tang Shunyan had been sitting in the carriage for so long and had just woken up.

“Alright, the wet nurse will carry you in.” Mrs. Li’s strong arms made carrying a child under three years old a minor task.

“Right, Jufeng, housekeeper, take my gifts and the little box to my room.”

Tang Shunyan turned his head while in Mrs. Li’s arms to speak to the housekeeper who had alighted from the horse and to Jufeng who was moving things from the carriage.

Of course, Jufeng thought about bringing the young Master’s box directly to the young madam’s room.

“Young Master, you took gifts to Mrs. Li’s home, shouldn’t the gifts be received by the adults?”

Tang Shunyan shook his head and said, “But those are gifts from my little sister, and those gifts in the little box are what I wanted to give to her. If she doesn’t accept them, they are still my belongings; they can’t be sent to my mother’s room.”

“Young Master, this jar, along with the gifts, should be shown to the adults, shouldn’t they? The toy your little sister gave you, shouldn’t it be shown to the elders?”

The housekeeper, harboring his earlier thoughts, of course, wanted the young Master’s toys to be shown to the Old Master and young Master—it was a good opportunity to discuss this business prospect with them.

“Alright! Jufeng, take that little box to my room and Grandpa Housekeeper, take my gifts to see grandmother. After seeing grandmother, let’s go see mother.”

Obviously, Tang Shunyan didn’t want the elders to see the gifts because the elders might take them away.

Those were gifts his little sister had given him and he planned to hide them all.

Jufeng opened and closed her mouth but could only agree and followed them back to the young Master’s courtyard.

The maids Mei Zhi and Xiu Zhi helped carry the items, but dared not make a sound, fearing that upon the young Master’s return to the mansion, he might complain about them to the elders.

Mrs. Li carried the young Master to his room, first let him use the potty, then poured some water for him to wash his face.

She gave the young Master some water to drink and something to eat, and only then did she change his dirty clothes.

This fussing took up some more time.

Tang Shunyan actually wanted to quickly go to his grandmother’s courtyard, eager to share the happy events of the day with his grandmother and also with his mother, sharing his joy with his family.

However, faced with Mrs. Li, this responsible wet nurse, who insisted he eat his fill before allowing him to go to Madam’s courtyard.

When the housekeeper brought the young Master’s gifts to Madam’s courtyard, it was in the afternoon, and only Madam and some housekeeper’s old women were discussing matters there; the Old Master was not present, nor was the Eldest Young Master likely to be there at that time.

“Madam, your servant has brought the young Master back.”

Madam had the housekeeper leave her side but kept a maid nearby, instructing the maid to serve tea to the housekeeper.

She also noticed the gifts placed beside the table by the housekeeper, some items wrapped in a bag and others in a clay jar. Coming from a farmer family, they were surely not valuable and Madam didn’t take much interest or intend to inquire.

“Housekeeper, the young Master went to the Li family, nothing happened, right?”

After sipping tea and setting down his cup, the housekeeper smiled at Madam and said, “Madam, the young Master went to the Li family today, and these are what he has received is quite happy.”

“Oh, what are those? Who sent them?” After hearing the housekeeper’s words, Madam felt a bit relieved.

“It was sent by the youngest daughter of the Li family.” The mysterious tone in the housekeeper’s voice gave Madam a sense of speculation.

“If I remember correctly, isn’t the Li family’s daughter only a few years old? She came to work here when she was just a month old, and now she’s just over four months old. A child who’s only four months old can give gifts?”

Madam thought the housekeeper was joking.

“Madam, what I say is true. Have you ever seen a four-month-old child who can carve? Can a four-month-old sit steadily and actually give gifts?”

The housekeeper’s words made Madam completely disbelieving; even the maid by her side looked at the housekeeper with a skeptical gaze.

“Housekeeper, you’re not going to say that the Li family’s little daughter can talk at four months old, can you? A four-month-old girl can carve? If that’s not a genius, it’s a demon.”

The words of Madam caused the smile on the housekeeper’s face to fade. He had been too happy and hadn’t thought much, staring blankly for a moment before he continued:

“This little girl. I saw that she hasn’t started talking yet, but some toys are indeed said by her father to have been carved by her, and none of her elder sisters have this ability.

When we first arrived, we did indeed see this little girl holding a small carving knife, which shocked Mrs. Li, thinking her daughters were playing with knives and even scolded her husband a bit.”

“So, you’re saying Mrs. Li didn’t know her daughter could carve? Mrs. Li has been at our mansion until last month without going back, so maybe her daughters only recently learned to carve. Some people spend several years learning carving without success, but a few-month-old girl excelled?”

The speculation of Madam gave the housekeeper some thoughts as well. Previously, he hadn’t thought too deeply, but now, with Madam’s speculation, it seemed incredible.

“Jinhua, go and call Mrs. Pan.”

Madam wanted to ask Mrs. Pan to understand more.

The housekeeper also sent the maid to call the Old Master and the young Master, deliberately not calling the young madam since she was pregnant and it wasn’t suitable for her to walk much.

The Old Master and the young Master were discussing matters in the study, dealing with some official business.

They heard from the guard at the door that Madam’s maid had asked for them, requesting their presence back at Madam’s courtyard.

“Father, let’s continue our matters later, perhaps our son has returned and possibly brought us a surprise.”

“Yes, it might be a surprise or a shock, but it’s good to go back and see.”

Both father and son harbored the same thought; the ambitions of Tang Shunyan were too substantial, pressuring both of them.

Madam called Mrs. Pan and asked her several questions.

Of course, it was to confirm if Mrs. Li’s youngest daughter was indeed just over four months old?

And whether her daughter could sit and could actually carve wooden toys.
