Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All-Chapter 288 - 219: A Misunderstanding (Part 2)

For two people who don’t know each other and haven’t even met, Grandaunt Xie can still speak so matter-of-factly, saying they’ll be together and get married in a couple of years!

And generally, when people get married, the man is usually one or two years older than the woman, so the girl Grandaunt Xie mentioned must be only ten or eleven years old!

So young, just in the third or fourth grade!

No wonder Xiaomi was so scared, she didn’t even hear how her mother responded, and hurried back to report to her big brother.

Jiang Yu didn’t really catch what Xiaomi said, but he first noticed Xiaomi’s uneasy expression, looking quite shocked.

Quickly putting down his brush, he walked to the door in a few steps to support the heavily panting Xiaomi: "What’s wrong, Xiaomi, why are you in such a hurry?"

Little Snow in the yard, as well as Wei Ziang and Jiang Wei in the two rooms opposite, heard the commotion and came over.

Xiaomi took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"Big brother, I was playing in the front yard just now, Grandaunt Xie came to find mom for something, I said mom was at the old house, so Grandaunt Xie went there and told me not to follow."

"At that time, I thought, what could be so secretive that I can’t know, so I secretly followed. Who knew Grandaunt Xie was there to arrange a marriage for you, big brother..."

Xiaomi hurriedly shared the news she overheard.

When she sneaked over to the old house, she happened to hear Grandaunt Xie mentioning some girl, and after a few words, she said she wanted that girl to follow big brother to the county, to the academy.

She was startled then and rushed back to inform her big brother.

This time, all the siblings heard it clearly, and Little Snow and Jiang Wei were a bit anxious: "Ah? What should we do, what if big brother doesn’t like that girl."

However, Jiang Yu himself and Wei Ziang didn’t seem too worried, and even found it a bit amusing.

Xiaomi noticed and stomped her foot angrily: "Big brother! Little brother! Why are you laughing! This is serious, okay!"

"If they really force a stranger bride on you, let’s see what you do!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Jiang Yu raised his hand to pat Xiaomi’s head: "Alright, alright, don’t worry, Xiaomi, let me ask you, did you not hear how mom responded to Grandaunt Xie before you ran back?"

Xiaomi blinked, thought for a moment, and then nodded slowly.

Seems, that’s right.

Jiang Yu smiled helplessly: "I knew it, didn’t dad and mom just say last night that there’s no rush for our marriages? How do you know for sure there’s a girl going to the county with me?"

Xiaomi continued to blink, and suddenly realized, her face reddening: "Ah, I didn’t hear the end before coming back."

Wei Ziang also smiled slightly: "Xiaomi just worried too much, I’m sure aunt wouldn’t agree to Grandaunt Xie’s proposal just like that."

Xiaomi knocked on her own head in frustration: "Oh, how embarrassing, I should have eavesdropped a little more."

Wei Ziang: "Yu, you’ve been reading all morning, take a break, I’ll take Xiaomi to check the old house again. If Grandaunt Xie’s gone, we’ll ask aunt what happened."

Saying that, he pulled Xiaomi, ready to go.

Jiang Wei quickly followed: "I’ll go too!"

Jiang Yu and Little Snow wanted to go too.

Xiaomi was about to nod, but Wei Ziang said: "What if Grandaunt Xie hasn’t left yet, if too many people go, we’ll easily be found out."

Xiaomi realized this too, quickly agreeing that if Grandaunt Xie hadn’t left, they would be caught overhearing.

Then, without waiting for others to say anything, the two hurried out again.

Like how Xiaomi suddenly appeared earlier, now they quickly disappeared from sight again.

Jiang Yu watched them leave, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

Just had a feeling, something seems off with someone.

Elsewhere, the two reached the main gate and didn’t see Grandaunt Xie, guessing she hadn’t left yet, otherwise they’d have seen her on the road.

After all, there was still some distance from their house to the village, and Xiaomi went there and back in no time.

Like sneaky thieves, the two quickly ran to the old house and tiptoed behind the pigsty.

Sure enough, they could still hear Grandaunt Xie’s voice.

She was persuading their mother to think it over, saying the girl was very virtuous and would surely take good care of Jiang Yu.

Xiaomi instantly understood, pursed her lips.

Mom surely must have refused, yet Grandaunt Xie was still persistent.
