Qin Ling walked around Tian Cai in two steps and went to the well with the bucket in hand.

"I really don't know what to say to this guy!" Seeing that she couldn't stop him, Tian Cai couldn't help but mutter, forget it, if he wants to fetch water, let him do it, at most he can help her fetch it this time.

As soon as she turned her head, she met Luo Xiuyan's eyes full of gossip. Even a blind person could see the meaning of that look. "What's going on?"

"It was when I was planting trees in the mountains that he stepped into a trap and got hurt. I carried him back and bandaged him and applied medicine. Now that he's almost healed, he insists on working for me." Tian Cai picked up a few more slices of Rehmannia root and put them in the medicine grinder, continuing to grind them. "The key is that the trap that hurt him was one I dug before the freeze, but I forgot about it when it snowed heavily."

"My mother said that my second brother used to play with the two brothers. Later, Uncle Qin and his wife passed away, and they went to Fengchan Village, so they lost contact. When they came back, second brother Qin had no time to play with them," Luo Xiuyan sighed, thinking that it was not easy for second brother Qin to take care of his silly brother all these years.

"He was always thinking about how to make a living, but Second Brother Qin was able to endure hardships and was also very skilled, so his life was gradually getting better."

Not long after, Qin Ling came back with two buckets of water. After filling the large water tank, he carried the buckets to fetch water to fill the small water tank.

It wasn't that Tian Cai was lazy that she didn't fetch water. There were many young girls and wives washing clothes by the well during the day, so she was used to fetching water in the evening. By then, everyone had gone home to cook, so only half a tank of water was left at home during the day.

After the small water tank was filled, Qin Ling glanced around and saw the tree stump that had not been chopped in the kitchen. He pulled a small stool over and started chopping it.
