Suddenly, a sound echoed. A particularly robust Calf emerged, its gaze wary as it looked at Zhou Shuisheng and his wife.
“Dad, there’s a little cow!” Zhou Shuisheng’s son, Zhou Xiaohau, exclaimed in surprise, his face lighting up with joy as he turned to Qing Xuan. “What a beautiful little cow!”
Zhou Shuisheng couldn’t help but be captivated by Qing Xuan at that moment. She seemed to have grown a bit taller, her skin transitioning from a light blue to a deep azure, her smooth fur pristine and unblemished.
She looked incredibly spirited.
Xiaohau glanced at Qing Xuan and felt an instinctive fondness for her. Without thinking, he reached out to stroke her forehead.
“Moo!”
However, Qing Xuan took a cautious step back, eyeing the Zhou family with suspicion.
“Hahaha! This little cow is quite on guard,” Zhou Shuisheng chuckled, shaking his head. He looked at Qing Xuan and said, “Little cow, where’s your owner? We’ve come from afar to thank them.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Shuisheng found himself laughing silently. Was he really talking to a cow?
“Hahaha, this is too funny! How could a cow understand human speech?”
He shook his head in self-deprecation and was about to move forward when Qing Xuan gently called out, tossing her head as if to indicate for them to follow her before turning and walking away.
“Huh?”
Zhou Shuisheng was taken aback, glancing at the equally astonished Xiaohau. They exchanged bewildered looks.
“Old man, this little cow can’t possibly understand you, right?”
“Surely not?” Zhou Shuisheng thought, feeling a mix of shock and disbelief. Yet, the calf’s recent behavior did seem to suggest otherwise.
“Moo!”
Seeing that Zhou Shuisheng and his wife remained rooted in place, Qing Xuan turned back again, her large eyes reflecting a hint of human-like curiosity.
At that moment, Zhou Shuisheng and his wife finally saw it clearly.
Qi Qi's body trembled as he looked incredulously at the little cow in front of him.
This cow could actually understand human speech!
Thinking of this, Zhou Shuisheng was astonished. He whispered, "Are you going to take us to find your owner?"
The cow's cautious demeanor was so endearing that if anyone from the Jianghe City business community saw it, their eyes would surely pop out in disbelief. Even Zhou Shuisheng, who had dominated the Jianghe City business scene for years, had such a timid side!
"Moo."
Qing Xuan nodded human-like, suddenly pouting and looking angrily at Zhou Shuisheng, as if to say, "Aren't you here to find my owner? I’m trying to take you there, but you’re not moving!"
Go, go, go! Let’s leave now!
Zhou Shuisheng laughed heartily and quickly pulled Little Flower along, with the three of them following Qing Xuan.
"Moo."
Only then did Qing Xuan nod in satisfaction, a smile spreading across its bovine face as it leisurely headed toward the orchard.
The Zhou family hurriedly followed Qing Xuan into the orchard.
Just a few steps into the orchard, Little Flower suddenly exclaimed in surprise, pointing excitedly at a fruit tree not far away.
"Look, peach blossoms!"
Peach blossoms?
Zhou Shuisheng was taken aback. It was already summer; how could there still be peach blossoms blooming?
Impossible!
Thinking his wife must have made a mistake, he casually looked up and was stunned to see a peach tree bursting with blossoms just a few steps away from him.
As the wind blew, a faint scent of peach blossoms wafted through the air.
Zhou Shuisheng was instantly dumbfounded.
What kind of place is this? There really are peach blossoms!
