Reborn As Lucky Star-Chapter 47 - : Something at the Bottom of the Pool?

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Something at the Bottom of the Pool?

The aftermath of the incident lasted several days.

Although the final conclusion was that it had been a false alarm, Yue Jiandong dared not take his daughter with him again.

After all, she was still too young, and it would be too late if something were to really happen.

Moreover, besides taking care of the fish pond, they also needed to do spring plowing.

With many people and activities around the farmland, encountering someone with bad intentions like Wang Jinshun again could lead to unpredictable accidents.

Yue Qingqing was cooped up at home for several days, watching the wild birds fly freely outside her window every day, her heart filled with a faint sadness.

Ah, to want and not be able to have.

Finally, the day Yue Jiandong returned home, he saw Zhang Ying holding their tearful little daughter.

“She’s been watching the doorway, probably waiting for you to come back.”

Yue Jiandong’s heart overflowed with emotion as he picked up his daughter and rubbed her cheeks with his stubble.

“Missed daddy, didn’t you?”

Yue Qingqing’s cheeks turned slightly red from the rubbing, and her little hand tremulously pointed towards the doorway.

Yue Jiandong still didn’t catch her meaning, “I know you missed dad, tomorrow dad will come back early.”

Yue Qingqing continued to point, her large eyes welling with tears.

“Alright, alright, daddy will stay with you, I won’t go out today.”

Adults, truly a species hard to communicate with.

Unable to express her feelings with words, Yue Qingqing suddenly burst into tears, and Yue Jiandong soothed her while patting her back.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, how about tomorrow dad stays home and doesn’t go out?”

Upon hearing this, Yue Qingqing cried even louder.

It was Zhang Ying who understood, “She wants you to take her out tomorrow.”

“Ah?” Yue Jiandong finally understood, “Let’s not, it’s still cold out, what if she really gets sick? Let’s wait a bit longer.”

Yue Qingqing’s barely withheld tears began to flow again, and Yue Jiandong raised his hands in surrender.

“Tomorrow happens to be the day we fix the fish pond, it’s less crowded there, I’ll take you with me.”

Yue Qingqing finally nodded in satisfaction and reached out to be held by Zhang Ying again.

Yue Jiandong had been working all day and was covered in sweat.

Yue Jiandong, both amused and frustrated, lightly pinched his daughter’s cheek with two fingers.

“You’re too clever, now you despise daddy too?”

Yue Qingqing giggled modestly in her mother’s arms.

Initially, his third senior brother was fond of cleanliness, which influenced the entire sect to develop a penchant for tidiness; she was merely a victim.

The next day, Yue Qingqing happily went out with her dad as she wished.

The cleaning of the fish pond had reached its final stage; no need for two laborers anymore.

So this time, Yue Jiandong took Yue Qingqing alone.

Although the weather had warmed up a bit compared to last time, Yue Qingqing was wrapped even more thickly.

Zhang Ying added a small cape to her daughter, wrapping everything below her neck tightly.

“They say keep warm in spring and cool in autumn; a little sweat is fine, mom will bathe you when we get back.”

Yue Qingqing bashfully covered her face with her little paws.

This time, arriving near the fish pond, Yue Qingqing was astonished.

The previous garbage dump had changed completely; the edges of the fish pond were neatly constructed, and some aquatic plants were planted at the bottom.

The rippling green waves looked quite elegant.

This was a characteristic of the Yue family, probably also influenced by Lin Chunju.

Although the family was poor, everything was arranged neatly, and even patched clothes had nice patterns on them.

In earlier years, they were even ridiculed for being poor yet meticulous, and there were sarcastic comments about behaving like a landowner’s daughter.

Seeing his precious daughter’s astonished expression, Yue Jiandong couldn’t help but boast to the little one.

“Looks good, right?” He had put a great deal of effort into the renovation, with every inch marked by a stretched string.

Later, when more flowers and plants are transplanted to decorate, it will almost resemble the pond of a wealthy family’s estate in the past.

Yue Qingqing nodded, staring unblinkingly at the pond.

Seeing her reaction, Yue Jiandong grew even more proud, intending to place his daughter in a pushcart nearby to finish the final touches.

However, Yue Qingqing grabbed his collar and would not let go, pointing ah-ah at the bottom of the pond.

With the experience from previous times, Yue Jiandong gradually sensed something unusual about his child.

“Do you think there’s something under there?”
