I'M THE FARMGIRL YOU CAN'T MESS WITH

Chapter 257: Family Friends

Editor: Atlas Studios

Qi Xiuyuan was sitting with his men at the Mu family’s house. He took a look at the Mu family’s new house and smiled. “This house is not bad. Is it warm to live in?”

“It’s quite warm.” Shu Wanniang made tea for Qi Xiuyuan and asked with a smile, “General, why are you looking for Ah Ling?”

“Auntie, you don’t have to be so polite. Just call me Xiuyuan.” Qi Xiuyuan paused for a moment and said, “You can call me Chengde1.”

Shu Wanniang glanced at the things that Qi Xiuyuan had brought and couldn’t figure out what he meant. Were they becoming family families who visited each other from time to time? However, her husband was just a soldier under Qi Haoran. Although her daughter had a good relationship with Qi Haoran, the Mu family’s family background was too different.

While Shu Wanniang was still in shock, Qi Xiuyuan had already straightened his back and leaned forward slightly. “Auntie Mu, I came this time to officially make the two families interact with each other.” Seeing Shu Wanniang looking at him warily, he smiled and said, “Uncle Mu is very capable, and Ah Ling is also extremely bright. Our families have interacted with each other for the past two years. The Mu family should have a certain understanding of the Qi family, right? I like Ah Ling very much and treat her like a younger sister.”

Shu Wanniang asked nervously, “So?”

Qi Xiuyuan’s eyes flashed with a smile. He looked at Shu Wanniang seriously and said, “I’m busy with work and in the prefectural capital, so it’s inevitable that I can’t take care of Haoran. That child is a tyrant and has a stubborn temper. He doesn’t listen to anyone. Only the words of his cousin, Zijin, and I can enter his ears. Ah Ling is on good terms with him, so he heeds a little of what she says. Therefore, I want to ask Auntie and Ah Ling to help me pay more attention to this child in the future. If he does anything out of line, please advise him.”

Although he said that he was inviting Shu Wanniang and Mu Yangling to pay attention, he was actually only inviting Mu Yangling alone.

Shu Wanniang heaved a sigh of relief and agreed with a smile. “Don’t worry, General. I’ll talk to Ah Ling. Actually, I think Little General is quite sensible.”

“You don’t have to call him that since he’s just a child. Just call him Haoran in the future.” As he spoke, he looked at Fei Bai. Fei Bai immediately handed over the gift he had prepared earlier. There were two high-grade crystal clear jade pendants, three white and flawless jade pendants, and a pair of sparkling white jade bracelets. The jade pendants were for Bowen and Bosi, the white jade pendants were for Xiuhong, Xiulan, and Kejia, and the jade bracelet was for Mu Yangling.

Once they accepted these gifts, the Mu and Qi families would have an extraordinary relationship in the future, and be considered family friends, even though the Qi family was out of the Mu family’s league.

Shu Wanniang only paused for a moment before accepting it. Actually, she had no choice but to accept it. The Mu family was already dependent on the Qi family to begin with. It was already a blessing that the Qi family was willing to set aside their status and interact as if they were equals.

Shu Wanniang took the gift and smiled. “Then I’ll take advantage of my seniority for once. In the future, I will call you Chengde.”
