Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All-Chapter 314 - 228: The Liu Family

Mi ran quickly to the courtyard gate, then slowed down her steps as if she were casually wandering, arriving by the waterside pavilion, her eyes quickly searching around.

Oh no, it seems to have run away.

A bit anxious, at least the spot where she released it yesterday had nothing visible now.

Looking around, there were sounds from several rooms, but no one had come out yet, probably just waking up.

Mi hurried to the spot from yesterday, dipping her fingers into the water, a stream of Spiritual Spring swiftly gushed out.

Last night she heard her parents talking, unsure what gift to give to Grandpa Liu, she thought of the turtle from the space.

In the space, being well-fed and nourished by the Spiritual Spring, it hadn’t hibernated, and while growing for so many years, it had long matured and grown large.

The largest female turtle already weighed six or seven pounds and had laid eggs twice.

So she thought of taking a turtle and putting it in the courtyard pond, then pretending she discovered it, making it seamlessly presentable as a gift to Grandpa Liu.

Of course, she wasn’t so foolish as to kill the turtle for eggs, so it was another slightly smaller, roughly five or six pounds, male turtle that she released last night.

Five or six pounds isn’t small either, a gift like this is definitely impressive!

But she also thought, if left overnight, the turtle might disappear, so it might be better to come quietly and release it today, and then say she discovered it. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

However, she feared oversleeping and missing the chance.

Besides, even if it ran away overnight, she could find a way to lure it out.

And indeed, the moment the Spiritual Spring water was placed in, something resembling a stone nearby moved slightly.

Mi’s eyes instantly lit up.

"Dad! Mom! Come here quick! There seems to be something here!"

Mi shouted at the top of her lungs, and the first to rush out was Wei Ziang.

"Mi, what’s wrong, what happened?"

Following closely were Jiang Yu and Liu Ze, then Jiang Wei, even with his clothes not fully on.

The brothers jogged over, seeing Mi crouched by the pool, pointing at a spot in the water.

"Big brother, little brother, look quickly, there seems to be something there."

Mi didn’t care who had arrived, as long as they retrieved the turtle; this thing was definitely gift-worthy!

"What is it?" Wei Ziang had already reached Mi, squinting his eyes, following her pointed direction.

The sky wasn’t fully lit yet, but fortunately, the water wasn’t deep. Squinting slightly, one could see what Mi was pointing at.

"It looks like a turtle."

In recent years, in Fu’an Village, seeing a turtle wasn’t uncommon; everyone recognized it.

Jiang Yu also arrived, just in time to hear these words: "Really? This luck is amazing!"

Mi pretended to be excited: "Yeah, I just passed by here, and happened to see it move slightly. I thought I was mistaken at first, but it turns out it’s real."

Jiang Yu turned around and left: "I’ll go get something to scoop it up."

A moment later, Jiang Hu came over with a net, along with Jiang Yu, followed by the second aunt and Xiao Xue.

The water wasn’t deep, and Jiang Hu crouched on the steps, easily scooping the turtle into the net, which was huge, still struggling inside the net.

"Such a big turtle." The second aunt was surprised.

Jiang Hu nodded happily: "It’s not bad, second aunt, quickly get a bucket."

"Oh, okay." The second aunt hurriedly turned around and went to the kitchen to get a bucket.

This turtle wasn’t the largest they’d caught, but only one from a few years ago was bigger.

"Didn’t we just say last night that we didn’t have anything suitable to bring to Uncle Liu’s house? Second aunt, what do you think of this? It’s perfect for Uncle Liu."

Liu Ze, standing by, heard this and said, "Uncle, aunt, there’s really no need to be so courteous, just coming to Cheng County is enough to make Grandpa very happy."

Jiang Hu waved his hand: "We can’t really go empty-handed, though. This turtle appeared just at the right time."

"By the way, how did you guys discover this?"

"It was Mi, Mi discovered it."

Everyone turned to look at Mi, who rubbed the back of her head with a grin: "I was just lucky, passing by and happened to see it move at the bottom of the water."

No one really suspected anything, as no one would imagine such a thing involving space, they just thought Mi was really lucky to have discovered even this.

Only Wei Ziang, after hearing Mi’s explanation, gave her a look but didn’t say anything further.

After breakfast, the second aunt asked everyone to wash up, and they prepared to leave.
