Back in the countryside, she was just as capable as the men when it came to farm work.

However, she was never full, which somewhat affected her performance.

Now that we have enough to eat and wear, we feel like we have inexhaustible strength, enough to kick an old ox aside and plow two acres of land ourselves.

Thinking of this, she excitedly said to Shen Qiyin, "Miss, don't worry about the Shen family in the future. I can farm to support you! I guarantee you won't live worse than you do now!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiyin was taken aback.

Then she thought about it and realized that all her actions were aimed at ruining the Shen family. It would be strange if Ren Dong didn't realize what she was trying to do.

only……

"Honeysuckle, don't you think I'm ruthless and vicious?" She didn't care what the world thought of her, but she didn't want the people around her to avoid her like the plague.

But Ren Dong said, "This servant only feels that you have the heart of a Bodhisattva, and that you have held back until now to take action against them."

"If it were a servant, I would have poisoned them to death with rat poison long ago!"

She had only been in this household for a year or two, yet she had already witnessed so many ugly faces, who wished they could squeeze every last drop of blood from her young mistress.

Should we keep such family members alive for the New Year if we don't poison them?

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiyin chuckled, feeling relieved.

After having breakfast, she went to check on Shen Cang as Madam Shen had instructed, and after returning to the Begonia Courtyard, she continued to teach Ren Dong to read.

After lunch, they went out.

On her way to Guangrentang today, she made a detour to the gate of the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Several notices were posted on the high wall outside the yamen:

There is a case of Zhang San harassing Widow Wang. The villagers can all testify to this. Zhang San was arrested but fled. Now, an order is issued to apprehend him. Anyone who knows about this but fails to report it will be punished the same way.

The notorious river bandit "One Worm" has reappeared, robbing merchants traveling between the banks of the Qiong River. A reward of five hundred taels of silver is offered for his capture. A portrait of the criminal is shown on the left.
