Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Treat it as Travel! (Third Update)

Translator: 549690339

After the busy farming season ended at home, Xiao Father and big brother returned to their nine to five work schedules, and Xiao Jinli also finally had some free time.

As others in the village were still working, even if Xiao Jinli wanted to help, no one would dare to bother her with any work.

For the villagers, it was good enough that Xiao Jinli finished her family’s work. When she wasn’t busy, all she needed to do was be happy.

So Xiao Jinli resumed her carefree days of grazing cows.

Though, with Cow King at home, she didn’t need to worry about them at all. Cow King could go out and come back on its own, even helping to manage the other cows.

“Ah, Jinli has fallen asleep again beside the haystack.” A few little friends were playing card games under the big tree and glanced at the unsociable Xiao Jinli, feeling somewhat disappointed.

“Jinli doesn’t like noise and doesn’t like playing with us. She prefers sleeping by the haystack. What can we do about it?”

As the farming work of the Xiao Family had come to an end, Xiao Siqian also found himself with some free time.

When Xiao Jinli went to graze Cow King, he followed along.

However, while she was napping by the haystack, he sat under the big tree, watching the children playing.

Listening to the children talking about Xiao Jinli, he immediately found it interesting.

He asked with a smile, “Why doesn’t Jinli like playing with you all?”

At this age, children usually enjoy having fun with their friends.

Little puppy said, “Jinli always thinks that we’re stupid and doesn’t like playing with us!”

“…” Xiao Siqian asked, “Has Jinli always been this smart?”

“Yes, yes, Jinli has been smart since she was little. The adults told us that Jinli could talk when she was three months old, and she could chat with adults. At four months, she started learning to read. By the time she was eight months old, she could recognize every character in the dictionary. Then, Brother Junxuan happily showed Jinli ancient poems, and she could memorize them after reading them once. She also easily learned the math formulas that always give us headaches, like addition and subtraction, multiplication tables. It’s as easy as eating a meal to her.”

Xiao Siqian, “…” This is truly a genius among geniuses.

“When we used to try to play with Jinli, she would complain about how dirty we were and say that we were too stupid to play with her.”

“Jinli has always been handling big matters with the adults since she was young.”

“So, Jinli is different from us. She’s someone who’s meant to do great things.”

Xiao Siqian, .

He discovered that in Xiao Family Village, whether they were adults or children, they all blindly worshipped Xiao Jinli.

While Xiao Siqian was inquiring about Xiao Jinli’s situation, the perceptive Xiao Jinli heard everything clearly.

Xiao Jinli looked up at the blue sky with her eyes wide open and thought, “Although life is leisurely now, it might be a bit too boring. I should go to the city and explore. Maybe, I’ll find something interesting there.”

At dinner, Xiao Jinli told her family, “Dad, mom, I’m planning to go to Jianggan City tomorrow!”

“Ah, going to Jianggan City?” Xiao Mother sounded a bit worried, “Xiao Bao, do you have any business there? If you’re bored at home, you can go to the county town to play.”

Xiao Jinli shook her head and said, “Mom, I don’t know how many times I’ve been to the county town. It’s no fun. I just want to see what a big city is like.”

“But Jianggan City is quite far away. If we drive there ourselves, it will take more than two hours.” Xiao Mother sounded slightly concerned, “How about this, if you really want to go to Jianggan City, I can go with you tomorrow.” Upon hearing his mother’s words, Xiao Junxuan’s eyes flickered, and he said, “Mom, my little sister is already on vacation. Why don’t we all go on a family

Xiao Mother’s eyes lit up immediately, “Right, we can all go together. We can treat it as a family vacation. But can your father and brother make time for it?”

Xiao Father laughed and said, “It’s fine. We wouldn’t be able to relax if Xiao Bao goes alone. Let’s all go together and treat it as a vacation.”

Xiao Siqian had wanted to say that he would go with Xiao Jinli initially, but when the whole family decided to go, he kept quiet.
