Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! - Chapter 281
281 The Spirit Treasure Rat Escaped
The various thank-you gifts from Zhang Zhan were not as stunning as before.
Even if the thank-you gift this time was no worse than before.
Zhang Zhan had asked someone to swagger over to the Wang Family to send a thank-you gift, so the surrounding neighbors knew that the Wang Family had a backer.
!!
He was the new county magistrate.
The county magistrate was evaluated every three years and changed every six years. If nothing unexpected happened, the new county magistrate would govern them for six years.
In the next six years, the Wang Family will be protected by the county magistrate.
They could not be provoked!
In the eyes of the commoners, even that small official from the courier station was someone they could not afford to offend, let alone a seventh-grade county magistrate. That was simply a heavenly official!
At this point, those who were originally jealous of the Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop’s business quietly shrank their necks.
They were even secretly glad that they had yet to use their various schemes. Otherwise, they would have really shot themselves in the foot!
As Old Madam Wang was not around, everyone did not think too deeply about it. They only happily received Zhang Zhan’s servant and treated him well before sending him out politely.
What they were most concerned about was the matter of the matchmakers.
Dalang was quite anxious. What he was most worried about was the marriage. Now that he did not have this worry, he was naturally happier.
Little Ah Yu and the others quickly arrived at the village.
Village Chief Hu and the others were playing chess with Old Master Hu at the village entrance. A group of smelly chess obsessed old men were sitting under the Yellow-horned Tree, fighting until their faces were red.
“I told you to move the Horse piece. What’s the use of moving the Elephant!”
“Don’t you know the combination move of the Horse and Cannon? What kind of lousy chess move is this? There’s no cleverness at all!”
“Checkmate-hey, hey, what’s wrong with you? You can’t withdraw your move!”
“Shut up, Ma Daha. Gentlemen shouldn’t talk when observing chess. Do you want to be a gentleman or a villain?”
“…”
Village Chief Hu felt a headache coming on, afraid that these old masters would anger themselves to death.
Just as he was worried, he suddenly heard a child shout, “Wow, Ah Yu is back!”
Old Master Hu and the others paused and looked towards the main road in unison.
Wang Dalang was carrying Little Ah Yu out of the carriage. Then, a young girl they didn’t know came down. Old Madam Wang was the last to step down.
They had been sitting on the donkey cart for so long that their buttocks were about to fall apart.
When they reached the village entrance, they did not want to ride in the carriage anymore and wanted to walk back.
Wang Dalang then drove the cart towards the Wang Family.
“Old Master Hu, Old Master Ma, Old Master Yang, Second Master Hu, Fifth Grandpa Hu, Grandpa Village Chief!” When Little Ah Yu saw them, she began to greet them from afar.
When the group of old fellows saw Little Ah Yu, they threw away the chess pieces in their hands and stood up with a smile.
“Ah Yu, why are you back? I heard that you’re studying in town. Why? Are you skipping school now?” Old Master Hu stood with his hands behind his back, his tone a little stern.
Little Ah Yu shook her head. “Old Master Hu, I didn’t. I’m on vacation! I came back to see you now.”
Even though they knew that the little fellow was being polite, they still smiled until their eyes curved.
Especially Elder Ma. He had just smiled like an old tree bark when he turned around and saw Old Madam Wang’s unfriendly expression. His smile twisted into a cold snort.
“You’re just coming home to visit. What a glib-tongue. Don’t learn some useless words.” With that, Elder Ma turned around and left.
He would not give Zhu Zi’s wife a chance to argue with him!
Little Ah Yu smiled, not affected at all.
After chatting with the old men and making everyone happy, Little Ah Yu continued walking in.
When she saw Hu Xiaotong, who had just returned from picking herbs, Little Ah Yu waved her hand. “Big Brother Xiaotong!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the Spirit Treasure Rat on the lamb’s head jump off the ground and run quickly in Hu Xiaotong’s direction.
Hu Xiaotong was shocked when he saw a rat running over. Before he could react, he saw the rat circle around him and run behind.
“Little Rat!” Little Ah Yu chased after it.
