After dinner, Zhuoyue stayed for a while longer, chatting with Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu, and only left when it was almost ten o’clock. Jiang Xue escorted Zhuoyue to the door, thanking him once again.
After a good night’s sleep, Jiang Xue woke up early the next morning. She saw her in-laws and parents getting ready to go exercise, so she called out to them and said, "Mom and Dad, don’t rush out for exercise yet. Let me take you to see that house first."
The elders didn’t refuse and followed Jiang Xue to the house not far away. When Jiang Xue opened the garden gate, the elders saw a large garden.
Jiang Xue wasn’t exaggerating—it truly was a big garden, spanning several acres at first glance.
Seeing such a large garden, not only Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu were delighted, but even Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang were thrilled.
With such a big garden, they have plenty to keep them busy. Whether they’re planting flowers or vegetables, they’ll have something to do every day.
Jiang Xue showed the elders around the garden and then handed them the keys. The gardening tools were all stored in a small shed next to the garden.
Seeing all the tools, the elders’ eyes lit up immediately, and each of them picked one up and started working in the garden.
Watching the eager elders get to work, Jiang Xue’s face was filled with smiles, and she couldn’t help but feel emotional. Indeed, she had confined the elders too much at home, or else they wouldn’t have been so eager to start working.
Seeing them busy, Jiang Xue didn’t disturb them and, after handing over the keys, went straight home.
Back home, Little Reunion happened to have just woken up. Jiang Xue changed her son’s clothes, played with him in the space for a while, and then came out to have breakfast.
After breakfast, seeing that the elders hadn’t returned, she had to take the child and go to find them. The busy elders finally put down their tools when they heard Jiang Xue calling them back for breakfast, washed their hands, and went home with her.
On the way, the elders were still discussing where to get some seeds for planting or whom to ask for advice on growing flowers.
Walking among them, Jiang Xue had no opportunity to join the conversation. Even Little Reunion was momentarily overlooked by the elders.
It wasn’t until Jiang Xue told them she had to go to work and would leave Little Reunion with them that they remembered, apart from tilling the soil, they also had to watch the child.
However, with so many people around, taking care of a child was no issue. At worst, they would leave one person dedicated to taking care of the child. So, after some discussion, Father Jiang, whose health wasn’t very good, was left behind.
But Father Jiang wasn’t too willing, so after some bargaining, they reached an agreement: they would take Little Reunion with them while they worked.
As long as the sun wasn’t too harsh, they would let Little Reunion stay at the field’s edge. If the sun was too strong, they wouldn’t stay under it themselves, let alone Little Reunion.
Thus, after agreeing, Little Reunion went to the garden for the first time, enjoying the sun while watching his grandparents work.
Watching intently, he really wanted to get out of the little cart and play in the soil. So, in a moment of inattention, Little Reunion directly tipped over his cart and crawled out.
"Oh no, Little Reunion fell!" Father Jiang glanced at Little Reunion by chance, saw him on the ground, turned pale, and shouted out loud.
