Chapter 273 Xu Ji is a two-faced person
The next day, after breakfast, Yun Qingqing put the bed into her spatial storage, and the group returned to Dashan Village.
As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, a figure rushed towards me like a cannonball.
Yun Xun hugged Yun Qingqing's leg tightly, looking up with her chubby little face: "Auntie, you're finally back! I missed you so much."
Yun Chengying smiled as she looked at her little nephew who was clinging to her sister: "You little ingrate, all you ever think about is your little aunt?"
Yun Xun immediately turned to look at Yun Chengying, her sweet words as if coated with honey: "I miss Uncle Ba too."
Then she looked at Yun Chengxi beside her, her eyes curving into crescents: "And Seventh Uncle."
When his gaze fell on Xu Ji, he exclaimed "Eh!" and asked Yun Qingqing curiously, "Auntie, who is this uncle?"
Yun Qingqing introduced, "He is Xu Ji, a friend of my aunt."
Upon hearing this, Yun Xun said "Oh" and immediately greeted Xu Ji politely, "Hello, Uncle Xu."
Xu Ji smiled and responded, reaching out to pat his head: "Good boy."
At this moment, the other three little ones came out of the house. When they saw Yun Qingqing, they all ran to her and said, "Auntie."
Yun Qingqing smiled and responded. Xu Ji, who was standing to the side, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Little Qingqing, how many nephews do you have?"
"Six."
Xu Ji smiled and said, "Your home here is like a big family."
Yunzhou looked at Xu Ji and asked Yun Qingqing curiously, "Who is Auntie?"
Before Yun Qingqing could speak, Xu Ji leaned down, looked Yun Zhou in the eye, and introduced himself with a warm smile: "Little friend, I am your aunt's friend, my name is Xu Ji."
Upon hearing this, Yunzhou blinked her big eyes and carefully examined Xu Ji. Seeing that his smile was gentle and not unpleasant, she politely greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Xu."
Yunxuan and Yunchuan, who were standing nearby, also greeted Xu Ji politely. Xu Ji smiled and responded, taking out four gold ingots from his spatial storage and giving one to each of them. "Here, this is pocket money from Uncle Xu."
"Thank you, Uncle Xu." Yun Chuan, Yun Zhou, and Yun Xun beamed with joy upon receiving the gold.
Yunxuan calmly thanked Xu Ji, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Xu."
Xu Ji smiled and waved his hand, "It's a small gift, don't be shy."
At this moment, the matriarch of the family led her three daughters-in-law out of the house.
When Jiang saw her daughter, her face lit up with joy, and she quickly stepped forward, saying, "Abao, you're back."
"Mother." Yun Qingqing called out to her obediently, and then called out to the old lady and the other two aunts who came over: "Grandmother, Second Aunt, Third Aunt."
Madam Xu and Madam Wu responded with a smile.
The matriarch walked to Yun Qingqing's side and gently tapped her forehead. "Child, when you go out to play in the future, you should let everyone know in advance so that no one will worry."
Yun Qingqing affectionately took her arm and replied with a smile, "I know, Grandmother. I will definitely let you know in advance next time I go out."
The matriarch's gentle gaze fell on Xu Ji, and she asked with a smile, "Abao, who is this?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingqing introduced him, saying, "Grandmother, he is my friend Xu Ji, who once saved my life."
Xu Ji stepped forward and greeted the matriarch, saying, "Junior Xu Ji greets the matriarch."
Upon hearing this, the matriarch said in a kind voice, "Don't be so polite. You saved Abao; you are our family's benefactor."
Madam Wu looked at Xu Ji with gentle eyes and said gratefully, "Young Master Xu, thank you for saving A Bao."
Xu Ji said gently, "Madam, you don't need to be so polite. Miss Abao also saved my life."
He paused for a moment, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "I have nowhere to go right now. I wonder if I could trouble you here for a while?"
Standing to the side, Yun Chengying and Yun Chengying listened to Xu Ji's refined speech and couldn't help but twitch their lips. They both thought to themselves: This Xu Ji is a two-faced person.
Jiang couldn't make the decision, so she turned to look at the matriarch.
The matriarch smiled and said, "Of course you can. You are Abao's friend and savior. You can stay as long as you want."
Xu Ji's face immediately lit up with a smile: "Thank you, Madam."
Yun Qingqing looked around but didn't see her grandfather, elder brother, or sister-in-law, so she asked the matriarch, "Grandmother, why don't I see Grandfather and the others?"
The matriarch smiled and said, "Your grandfather and the others went to the market."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingqing continued to ask, "Grandmother, have Fourth Brother and Sixth Brother returned yet?"
"They're back, sleeping inside. I wonder what those two were up to last night."
The matriarch then asked Yun Qingqing, "Abao, were you just playing around this time?"
Yun Qingqing nodded: "Yes, Grandmother, we just went out for a trip."
Seeing that her granddaughter did not want to say more, the matriarch graciously stopped asking and looked at her lovingly: "Abao, your grandmother has no other requests for you, she only hopes that you will be safe and sound."
A warm feeling welled up in Yun Qingqing's heart. She smiled and nodded, "Grandmother, don't worry, I'll be fine."
He then added, "I won't let anything happen to you either."
Upon hearing this, the matriarch patted her hand with satisfaction and said gently, "Alright. Abao, you accompany Young Master Xu on a walk around and see the sights. Don't neglect him."
Yun Qingqing nodded in agreement, then turned to Xu Ji and said, "Let's go, I'll show you around."
She had some things she wanted to ask Xu Ji privately.
Xu Ji was looking for an opportunity to be alone with Yun Qingqing, and upon hearing this, he immediately smiled and agreed, then left with Yun Qingqing.
Seeing this, Yun Chengxi and Yun Chengying were about to follow, but the matriarch stopped them: "You two shouldn't follow. Let Abao and her friend have a good talk."
Upon hearing this, Yun Chengying and Yun Chengxi had no choice but to stop and watch the two leave.
