Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! - Chapter 193
193 Grandma Is Back
Old Madam Wang brought Little Ah Yu home, her face terrifyingly black.
Only then did everyone realize that Old Madam Wang had returned.
Liu Shi did not dare to say anything else. She quickly went to the kitchen to boil hot water for Old Madam Wang’s bath.
!!
Little Ah Yu had to take a shower too since she was carried by Old Madam Wang.
Old man Wang asked Madam Ma to make a trip to the Qin Family to bring the children back.
When the children learned that their Grandma was back, they all ran home.
It was not that they missed Old Madam Wang very much, but when the adults in the family returned from a long trip, they usually brought something for the children.
She would not bring them buns but at the very least, she would bring them a piece of candy.
The Wang Family’s good life was only reflected in the fact that they could eat their fill every meal, eat buns made with white flour, and eat meat every two days.
There were no snacks.
Only their own candied haws could be eaten, but they were already tired of it. No one could eat the same snacks every day.
When Old Madam Wang brought Little Ah Yu to take a shower, the children were looking around, wanting to see what Old Madam Wang had brought back. In the end, they looked around and did not find anything similar to a package.
“Grandma didn’t bring anything back?” Wang Liulang couldn’t help but ask Wang Erlang secretly.
Wang Erlang shook his head gently. “I didn’t follow Grandma out. It’s useless for you to ask me. Why don’t you ask Grandpa?”
Old man Wang had a good temper. He was worlds apart from Old Madam Wang. However, for some reason, the children were afraid of him and usually did not talk to him.
They would rather be pulled by the ears by Grandma Wang.
Wang Liulang was unwilling to ask Old man Wang.
Instead, Wang Wulang ran over and asked shamelessly, “Grandpa, Grandma didn’t bring anything for us this time?”
“You only want to eat all day. How can your heart not ache for your Grandma? She’s been braving wind and dew alone for so long, and there’s no one by her side to take care of her. I wonder how tired she is!” Old man Wang’s heart really ached. The fatigue on Old Madam Wang’s face could not be faked.
Wang Wulang looked surprised. “Wow, Grandpa, you even know how to use the idiom braving wind and dew. The Master only taught us this idiom just yesterday. Grandpa, have you gone to school before?!”
Old Wang slapped Wang Wulang’s head. “I’m talking to you seriously. What are you jabbering about over there?”
In the end, everyone could only wait for Old Madam Wang.
After Old Madam Wang finished washing up, Old man Wang had already taken out a dry cloth towel to dry Old Madam Wang’s hair.
On the other side, Liu Shi had also pulled Little Ah Yu over to dry her hair.
Old Madam Wang sat on a wooden stool and swept her dignified gaze across everyone. She sneered and said, “Looks like you’ve been living a carefree life while I was away. You’ve even forgotten the rules!”
Everyone was confused.
It was only when Old Madam Wang told them about Little Ah Yu that they realized why Old Madam Wang’s expression was so bad when she returned.
Little Ah Yu quietly walked out of the door, but no one knew where she had gone. This was indeed everyone’s responsibility.
It was all their fault for being negligent.
Although Nanhe Town was orderly, who could predict if there were any special circumstances? If Little Ah Yu was deceived by someone, what would happen to her?
“You still want me to bring you food? Dream on! You all would just cause trouble the moment you don’t do proper work for a day. I’ll be crazy to bring you food!
You can’t even do something as simple as taking care of your sister. Tell me, what’s the use of your existence? You guys go to the Master’s place to study all day long but I don’t see you learning any etiquette!
The martial arts that you learned from Mr. Chi is not just about punching and kicking. He also taught you to be righteous and protect your family. But which of you has done it?”
Old Madam Wang’s words were spoken in an unhurried manner. Not to mention those children, even the surrounding adults lowered their heads.
When Little Ah Yu heard her Grandma scolding her brothers, she immediately panicked. She hurriedly ran to Old Madam Wang and shook her hand. “Grandma, it’s all Ah Yu’s fault. Don’t scold the big brothers. It’s Ah Yu who wanted to talk to Uncle Chen.”
Tears gathered in her eyes, and her voice became softer and softer. “Ah Yu knows my mistake. I won’t do this again. Don’t scold the big brothers…”
Because she was too anxious, Little Ah Yu forgot to stop addressing herself in the third person.
Old Madam Wang had a weakness towards Ah Yu acting cute to begin with, but she still maintained a straight face, wanting Little Ah Yu to remember this lesson.
This time, it was a false alarm. But what about the next time?
If everyone was used to it and Little Ah Yu really went missing next time, how long would it take for them to realize it?
Old Madam Wang did not dare to gamble like this.
Moreover, Little Ah Yu had another background. Before she reached seven years old, Old Madam Wang had decided to guard Little Ah Yu tightly, so that her ruthless family would never have a chance to hurt her.
Therefore, Old Madam Wang never let go of any details.
What she was most angry about was not that no one knew that Little Ah Yu had gone out this time, but that as soon as she left, these people began to relax.
She had only been gone for a month. What would happen if she left for even longer?
It was extremely difficult for such a family to become a large family.
Even if Chuangui passed the Imperial Examination or her grandchildren achieved some success, if the family was constantly being dragged down by the other members, they might as well just continue being ordinary bumpkins.
Old Madam Wang did not have the time to tell these deep principles to the descendants in front of her. It was useless to say too much. Their horizons had limited them such that they would not consider the problem comprehensively, or even think in the long term.
She had to take things slowly.
After Old Madam Wang’s lecture and everyone promised her that they would do better, she asked about Chen Yuan.
Old man Wang let the eloquent Wang Chuangui do the explaining.
Wang Chuangui told Old Madam Wang everything.
“Fortunately, you didn’t agree directly. Don’t worry about this matter. I’ll talk to that person tomorrow.”
Hearing Old Madam Wang’s words, the Wang Family secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
They had indeed been holding this matter in their hearts for a long time, waiting for Old Madam Wang to return.
In their eyes, with the Old Madam back, the matter was completely resolved.
After noon, Wang Chuanyuan and his wife, who had received the news, returned.
Other than Wang Chuanfu, the other four Wang brothers were all here.
Old Madam Wang called her sons and daughters-in-law together and said to them, “This time, I went over to see Shopkeeper Zhou. Fortunately, things went smoothly.”
The others did not know why Old Madam Wang suddenly brought up this topic, so they could only listen silently.
Seeing their attitude, Old Madam Wang felt a little complicated in her heart, but she still continued, “Shopkeeper Zhou gave a promise. We can send someone to be a steward at his place. The salary is 150 taels a year, and food and accommodation are included. There are several other benefits. Every year, there will be a month of leave granted.”
An annual salary of 150 taels?!
This was too much!
In Nanhe Town, this amount of money was enough to buy a house every year!
Everyone’s gazes became fervent.
