red a shot, killing a zombie raven. He spoke directly.If they keep staying here, they're definitely going to be ripped apart."Stop!"Wu Lianyi suddenly spoke.Everyone instinctively stopped firing. The..."Four years old is indeed young, how old is this girl"

"Dayaya is seven years old this year. She is healthy and strong. She hasn't been sick much since she was a child."

Fengxu'er immediately explained.

"Look up and let me see."

Upon hearing this, Lian Yi obediently raised her head and gave Madam Gu a sweet smile, showing off all her tiny white teeth.

Ms. Gu's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that the Willow Family had raised their young lady so well, and she wasn't afraid of strangers. So she smiled and said:

"This girl looks pretty good. What's her personality like"

"As the eldest child of the Liu family, Daya was responsible for taking care of her younger siblings. None of them had ever been hurt or gotten into trouble, and all the boys listened to Daya."

Feng Xu'er smiled and said, her little Feng had said that Big Sister was the most capable. As for how capable, her son was too young to know.

"Go ahead and get out of here. I want to have a few words with her alone."

Mrs. Gu said to Fengxu'er.

Yes, mistress.

Feng Xu'er obediently withdrew from the room, knowing that this was Shao Fu's way of testing Daya in private.

"Dayaya, come here, come to me."

Mrs. Gu beckoned to Lian Yi with a wave of her hand.

Ripple strode confidently before Madam Gu and, raising her head, spoke:

"My lady, you are so beautiful."

No matter how many times you try to flatter me, it won't work. Gu Shao's wife said with a smile:

"Tsk, such a sweet mouth."

"Dayu is telling the truth, Dayu never lies to people."

The ripples pretended to be innocent and assured.

Do you know what to do staying at the Gu Residence

"Understood, take good care of the young lady and make sure she isn't bullied."

The conversation flowed like ripples.

"Then what abilities do you have to protect the young miss"

"I am very strong and I know how to use a slingshot."

Ripples pretended to be deep in thought, muttering to herself as she pondered.

"Oh What kind of strength are you talking about"

Mrs. Gu, showing interest, inquired further.

The ripples swept around, then walked straight to the solid wooden small square table. She grasped the table leg with one hand and effortlessly lifted it up, tossing it upward for a moment before catching it steadily again. The surrounding maids and elderly ladies gasped in astonishment.

This table, they struggled to lift it, but a six-year-old girl, who was just as tall as the table, effortlessly lifted it up. She even tossed it around with ease. It's impossible not to be amazed.

"Good child, you put the table down. I believe in you!"

Mrs. Gu was truly delighted, her face beaming with smiles as she spoke.

"My lady, because we had to flee our home, I never dare eat my fill. If I did, I'd have so much strength that even an adult could be thrown down by me."

"Was this strength born into you"

"Well, my mother told me that my grandfather's father was a hunter. He was very strong and could knock down even a bear with one punch."

He gestured with a small fist, as if to emphasize that he wasn't lying.

Madam Gu already had thoughts of staying. She said to the women around her:

"Nanny, go bring Miss Little over here. Tell her I've found a playmate for her and she should come meet him."

Yes, Mistress.

The wet nurse immediately obeyed and went out of the room. Madame Gu had a servant girl bring up a plate of snacks. Lian Yi politely thanked her before taking a small bite and eating it, looking very well-behaved and polite. This made Madame Gu even more pleased.

After a while, the wet nurse brought in a little pink bundle. The little bundle was a bit droopy and only managed a strained smile when it saw the young mistress before stretching out its hand to be held by its own mother.

Madam Gu immediately took her daughter into her arms and placed her on her lap, then gently stroked her daughter's head and asked softly:

"My darling daughter, what's wrong Why are you pouting your little mouth Who has upset my precious baby"

"Mother, Die'er had a nightmare."

Gu Mengdie rubbed her eyes and said.

Mrs. Gu felt her daughter's hand stiffen, and then she smiled and said:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. With your mother here, I will surely drive away the bad guys from your dreams."

"Well! Die'er is not afraid!"

Gu Mengdie leaned against her mother's shoulder and softly replied.

"Butterfly, you always complain about not having a playmate. Mother has found a little girl your age for you. Look, do you like her If you do, Mother will have her play with you all the time, okay"

After Mrs. Gu finished speaking to her daughter, she pointed in the direction where Li was.

Gu Die'er only then discovered that there was a strange girl beside her. She turned her head and curiously looked at Lian Yi.

With a wide smile, Lian Yi generously let the other person see her teeth, showcasing her eight pearly whites. This even caused Gu Die'er to laugh along. Then, she asked Gu Shao Fuqin to put her down and herself toddled over to Lian Yi's side with her short legs.

"My name is Gu Die'er, I am four years old today. What's your name"

"My name is Liu Daya, I am six years old. You are the same age as my younger sister, but you're short and thin. Are you not eating enough Our family moved to Youzhou City because our hometown was affected by a disaster. Has this place been affected too"

Mrs. Gu twitched the corner of her mouth after hearing Da Ya's words, but she also knew that the little girl wasn't lying, so she didn't speak up. She wanted to see how her daughter would respond.

"What does "suffering" mean Why am I always hungry"

Gu Die'er tilted her head and asked.

"A disaster means that heaven doesn't send rain, the crops in the ground don't get water, so they don't grow or produce ears of grain. By autumn there is no harvest and no food, so naturally people go hungry."

Ripple patiently explained.

"I have eaten, but I am growing slowly."

Gu Die'er also found that she was a head shorter than Lianyi, so she explained.

"That's because you haven't been eating enough, that's why you're growing slowly. I'll take you out to play for a few days, and you'll eat more. When you eat more, you'll grow taller."

After finishing her sentence, Lian Yi stretched out her hand, motioning for Gu Die'er to hold it. Gu Die'er, perhaps truly lacking companions, happily extended her small hand and clasped it with Lian Yi's. Then she turned her head and said to Lady Gu:

"Mother, I want to go play in the garden with Dayu."

"Go on! Let the nursemaid accompany you, don't fall."

Mrs. Gu gave the nanny beside her a look, and the latter immediately understood. She smiled and followed the two little dumplings out of the room.

When the wind outside saw her niece dragging the little miss out of the house, she knew things should be done.

As soon as the two youngsters left, Madam Gu summoned Feng Xu'er inside. As per their agreement, it was a ten-year service contract. The contract was given to Feng Xu'er to take back and have Liu Dasan and his wife sign and seal it. Afterward, they needed to register it at the government office. Madam Gu did not want to skip these procedures.

Because her own daughter was satisfied, Madam Gu even paid Liu Daya five years' worth of wages in advance, a way to appease the Liu family.

Feng Xu'er took the contract and one hundred taels of silver, and hurried back to the inn, telling the Liu family this good news.

Old Man Liu let out a sigh and gave the one hundred taels of silver to Mr. and Mrs. Liu Dashan:

"This is the money that Dayu earned for you all. Take it and keep it safe. After you've settled in, send a message to Dayu and ask Shan Gen to go see his sister. Then, send those boys to school to learn some basic knowledge. We need to support Dayu."an and the others doing""" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!Everyone buzzed around the ripples, asking questions nonstop.After patiently answering everyone's questions...
