Qin Yao took a deep breath of the slightly cool air in the spring night, and her fist almost deviated from the target just before it was about to hit Yin Le's head.

The sharp wind from the fist swept past Yin Le's cheek, and she just fluttered her eyelashes twice.

You can see that he is a little panicked, but not too panicked.

"You are so vicious!" Qin Yao hit Yin Le's forehead with her fist neither lightly nor heavily, gritting her teeth and saying hatefully.

Forget it, do whatever you want!

Tomorrow morning I will pack her up and throw her into the factory to do hard labor!

Qin Yao led people into the house. The house had become quiet and the father and son had already gone to bed.

Qin Yao pointed to the water tank at the kitchen door and said, "Go clean yourself up."

He went into the house again to find bedding and extra towels, handed the towels to Yin Le, and spread the bedding in the small room beside the corridor.

The bedding was made, and Yin Le finished washing up and followed over.

It was too dark at night and nothing could be seen clearly. Yin Le only felt that the yard was neatly arranged, the ground was clean, and there was a faint scent of flowers and fruits in the house.

The air was dry, the candlelight was bright, and the place was very crowded, completely different from her damp and dim shabby hut in Xinghua Village.

It feels like home here.

"You sleep here tonight." Qin Yao left the candlestick behind and was about to leave after giving the instructions.

Yin Le thanked her quickly and watched her enter the main house before closing the door and sleeping in this small room.

That night, Yin Le had a dream.

She dreamed that her elder brother and his wife came to find her and said that the family had already canceled the marriage with the old man and wanted to take her home. They also said that she could do whatever she wanted at home in the future and her parents would not force her to get married anymore.

When he woke up from the dream and saw the completely unfamiliar wooden beams above his head, Yin Le was already in tears.

Because she had already woken up in the dream and knew clearly that such family members only existed in dreams.

Liu Ji was always the first one to get up early in the family, but when he came back from the toilet today, he was surprised to find some rustling noises in the front yard.

Could Awang dare to get up earlier than his master today?

Does he still want to live? He doesn't even understand the ways of the world!

With some suspicion, Liu Ji walked through the corridor to the front yard. Seeing Yin Le sweeping the yard with a broom, he was almost scared to death.

"Why are you here?" Liu Ji asked in shock.

Afraid that he was dazzled, he rubbed his eyes hard and looked again. Yin Le had already turned around and squatted slightly to bow to him.

Qin Yao refused to accept him as her disciple, but Yin Le had already decided in his heart that she was his master.

Then the person in front of you is your master.

When meeting the master, the younger generation naturally has to bow.

Yin Le had no intention of hiding anything, and said bluntly: "Master, I followed you here secretly last night, and your benefactor was kind-hearted, so he brought me back to stay for the night."

Of course, if possible, she wouldn't mind sleeping on the floor in this yard and living there for a long time.

"What did you call me?" Liu Ji asked.

Yin Le put down the broom, stepped forward, and bowed formally, "Yin Le greets Master, Master, do you have any instructions? Yin Le is willing to serve."

Liu Ji thought to himself that the woman at home had finally met her match.

He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. You can continue with your work. Master, I'm leaving now."

After finishing his morning homework, he would go to the Lotus Courtyard to serve. Not only did he have to entertain the old man, but he also had to be ready to face his tests at any time. He was not necessarily much more idle than Qin Yao.

"Yin Le respectfully sees off Master." Yin Le bowed again, and then stood up when he saw Liu Ji enter the study.

Just as I turned around to pick up the broom to continue sweeping, I didn't expect that my broom had already been taken by someone else, who was sweeping vigorously.

He guessed that it should be someone from his benefactor's family, but Yin Le had never seen him before, so he could only carefully test and ask:

"Who are you?"

Afraid that the other person would be scared by her face, she deliberately pushed the bangs next to her cheeks forward to cover the scar.

Awang raised his head and looked her over. He caught a glimpse of the peculiarity on her face and was slightly surprised, but not frightened.

He said simply: "My name is Awang."

Having said that, he continued to do what he was supposed to do.

Yin Le introduced: "Awang, my name is Yin Le, you can also call me Yue Niang."

The two men looked to be about the same age, and Yin Le didn't know who was older, so he didn't call him brother.

Awang said "oh" and looked at her warily, as if he was afraid that his job would be snatched away, with a strong sense of crisis.

After sweeping the floor, Awang went to the kitchen to light a fire. While boiling water, he poured the leftover food into the泔水桶, added a few scoops of rice bran, stirred it evenly, and mixed in some chopped rotten vegetable leaves. He then took it to the back of the house to feed the chickens and cows.

Chickens and cows love this recipe the most. As soon as Awang approached with the bucket, the chickens in the cage fluttered their wings and clucked excitedly, knowing that food was coming.

After feeding the livestock at home, Awang would lead Lao Huang to the river bank at the foot of the mountain and let it stroll around and find some fresh grass to eat.

After releasing the horses, he passed by the vegetable garden and picked a fresh vegetable before returning home to prepare breakfast for the whole family.

The children got up at this time. Awang distributed the prepared rice balls to them and packed lunch for the four children and stuffed it into their school boxes.

He rushed to the old house, got on Liu Zhongjia's carriage, and went to school.

When the family had a new older sister, Dalang and his two siblings, who were in a hurry to go to school, didn't have time to ask.

However, Qin Yao was not woken up by the calls of "Aniang" this morning, because Yin Le, who had nothing to do, finally found a job he could do - tying children's hair.

She didn't know how to do anything in the kitchen. After all, her family was well-off in the past, so it was not her turn to do it herself.

But when it comes to tying hair, Yin Le is very talented and has learned many hair-tying techniques since he was a child.

Today, Sanlang's hairstyle is finally no longer a messy bun.

Yin Le put his hair in a bun on top of his head, and left two strands of hair hanging down from his temples in thin braids.

Sanlang's skin is not very white, and there are no very white skinned children in the country, unless they stay outdoors.

But his skin is very tender.

Qin Yao specially bought some moisturizing oil and asked them to apply it every day before going to school. The children's skin was smooth and tidy, and they looked good. After their hairstyle was done, they looked like young masters from some wealthy family.

Si Niang finally had a new hairstyle - her hair was hanging down and parted into a bun.

With the pearl headband that Qin Yao bought for her, her looks went up two levels.

Si Niang looked at herself in the bronze mirror again and again, feeling extremely satisfied. She secretly hoped that the elder sister who was visiting her home would help her tie her hair tomorrow morning.

After seeing the children off, Liu Ji went out with his book box and headed for the Lotus Courtyard.

There was no time left, so I held breakfast in one hand and dragged the book box with the other. I had already built up my physical strength, so I ate while jogging without even taking a breath.

The courtyard became quiet again, with only Awang, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, and Yin Le, who didn't know what to do and was standing in the corridor of the main hall.

As for Qin Yao, if there was nothing urgent on weekdays, it would be far from the time for her to get up.

From the kitchen, the aroma of food kept wafting over. Yin Le touched his stomach and swallowed secretly.

I got up so early that my stomach is already growling.

But she hadn't done any work yet. Whenever she wanted to do anything, the man called Awang would suddenly appear like a ghost and snatch the work away.

Yin Le thought he was just being polite at first, but later she realized that this guy was a strange guy. He was just afraid that she would take his job!

It's just work. Is this something good that you need to rush for?

Yin Le scratched his head, not quite understanding.
