"Grandpa Mo did a really good job," Li Rouniang praised gently.

Erni cheered up and continued playing with the ball with Dani.

Li Rouniang walked over to Old Man Mo and said, "Thank you, Uncle Mo. I'm sorry to have troubled you today."

Old Man Mo waved his hand and said, "It's good that everything is resolved. I was worried about her at home. I'm relieved to see Erni back. You'll have to be more careful in the future. If you need anything, you can leave the child with me."

Old Man Mo has seen a lot in his life, so what is there that he can't see through? He can understand it at a glance. Li Rou Niang is probably not well received in her husband's family. It's a pity for such a good woman.

Li Rouniang nodded and went inside to take care of the two children. Mo Bei told Old Man Mo what had happened, and Old Man Mo was also indignant. How could there be such a bad person!

After Rou Niang finished dinner, Mo Bei saw that it was still early, so he pulled Er Ni and Dan Ni aside and said, "Dani, Er Ni, starting today, Uncle Mo will teach you martial arts, okay?"

Mo Bei had just thought of this. There were some situations where he couldn't intervene for the time being, but it would be good for Li Rou Niang and her widowed children to learn some self-defense skills.

This was the only thing he could do for them.

"Why would I need to learn kung fu?" Erni had no concept of learning kung fu at all.

"If you learn kung fu well, you can fight bad guys and protect your mother," Mo Bei said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Erni immediately nodded and clapped her hands, saying earnestly, "Erni wants to learn kung fu. Erni wants to protect her mother."

Mo Bei looked at Zhao Dani again. Zhao Dani was at a loss. Seeing how eager her younger sister was to learn, she could only nod reluctantly.

Seeing this scene, Li Rongniang was also somewhat moved. She had been feeling uneasy today because she had impulsively run into the Qian family's house. Fortunately, the Qian couple weren't bad people; otherwise, she and her daughter wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed.

When she was surrounded by the servants, she thought that if she had martial arts skills, she would not be afraid of these people.

Or perhaps I have some means of self-defense now, so when Zhao Dayou comes back, even if I get beaten again, I will be able to fight back, right?

Thinking of this, she stepped forward and stammered, "Mo Bei, do you think it's too late for me to learn some kung fu now?"

Mo Bei turned to look at Li Rou Niang, only to see the woman standing there in the setting sun, her face slightly flushed, seemingly at a loss for what to do.

Mo Bai nodded and said, "Of course you can. Although you won't be as skilled as someone who has been learning since elementary school, you can still learn some self-defense skills, which might be helpful in a critical moment."

Li Rouniang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "Then let's start learning from today."

Mo Bei nodded. As the sun set, Mo Bei pointed at the mother and her two daughters, while Old Man Mo sat in a rocking chair in the courtyard watching.

He supported Mo Bei teaching the mother and her two daughters martial arts, after all, he knew that he and Mo Bei might leave one day.

He had also heard from the villagers that Li Rouniang's husband was not an easy person to get along with and was somewhat irritable, so it would be good for Rouniang to learn some martial arts for self-defense.

When Li Rouniang returned home that evening, Granny Zhao had already gone back to her room and fallen asleep. Perhaps she wasn't asleep, but in any case, she didn't come out again.

Li Rouniang and her two daughters stood in the courtyard. Erni looked at the tightly closed door of Granny Zhao's room and asked, "Mother, is Grandma's leg better?"

Li Rongniang patted Erni's head and said, "Much better, Erni, don't worry."

Erni lowered her head and didn't say anything more. She wasn't worried; she was just afraid that if her grandmother's condition worsened, her mother would have to stay home to take care of her grandmother, and then she wouldn't be able to go to Uncle Mo's place to learn kung fu.

Granny Zhao hadn't gone to sleep. She knew as soon as Li Rouniang and her two daughters entered the courtyard. She hid behind the door and secretly watched. After hearing Erni's words, she felt a little guilty for no reason. This silly child actually cared about her leg, but she wanted to sell her.

However, this feeling of guilt was fleeting, quickly replaced by the heartache of losing an ounce of silver today. That was pure silver! It was truly painful to see her like a broken heart. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

For the next month, Li Rouniang and the children worked tirelessly from dawn till dusk. Whenever they had free time, they would learn kung fu.

Mo Bei was quite strict with the Zhao sisters, as they needed to have a solid foundation from a young age. As for Li Rouniang, who was already of a certain age, Mo Bei taught her some technical skills.

Putting everything else aside, at least the mother and daughter have learned to recognize most of the acupoints on the human body after this month. It's a pity that Zhao Dani eventually gave up because it was just too difficult, just too difficult.

To put it bluntly, she really has no talent in this area!

Li Rouniang felt a little bit of regret.

On the contrary, Zhao Erni liked him very much, and she followed Mo Bei around every day, even wanting to go hunting in the mountains with him.

Erni understood. She thought that if she could go into the mountains to hunt, she could sell her prey to support her mother and sister and become Sanni again.

After obtaining Li Rouniang's consent, Mo Bei took Zhao Erni into the mountains several times. Erni became even more excited and studied even harder!

Mo Bei initially only intended to give Li Rouniang and her daughter some ability to protect themselves, but he never expected to actually gain a satisfactory and talented apprentice.

"Mom, come quick and see what I caught!" This time, Erni actually caught some prey on her own during her trip into the mountains. She ran back excitedly and shouted loudly.

Li Rongrou's mother heard this and went to investigate, only to find that Erni was holding a pheasant in her hand.

"Erni, did you do this?" Li Rouniang asked, somewhat surprised.
