"Since he is not here for you, my lady, then why did Zhen Yubai come here? Is he born to love teaching?"
Liu Ji frowned suspiciously and muttered in a low voice: "He gave up being a rich young man and came to our mountain village to be a teacher. He must have a problem with his brain!"
Qin Yao looked up at the sky in silence, exhaled a deep breath, ignored Liu Ji who was making random guesses, and said to Awang:
"Zhen Yubai is not an ordinary person. You'd better not hang around the academy if you have nothing to do, so as not to be discovered by him. Some people are born with stronger intuition than ordinary people."
Looking at Liu Ji who was still guessing the other party's purpose, Qin Yao was a little hesitant whether to tell him about Zhen Yubai's meeting with Gong Liangliao that night.
But it seems there is no point in saying it, so I'd better not say it.
Awang nodded and took note of the instructions. He looked at Qin Yao deeply. His intuition told him that the lady knew something, but she didn't say it.
Seeing that Qin Yao didn't show any reaction, Liu Ji unwillingly caught up with her and asked, "Madam, are you just going to leave Zhen Yubai alone?"
This is not like her style.
In the past, if we found any signs of something going wrong, we would nip it in the bud.
This is so abnormal, could it be——
"Madam, you are not..." Are you attracted to that pretty boy Zhen Yubai?
Liu Ji didn't dare to say the second half, nor did he have the chance to say it.
Because the children are back from school.
Yin Le drove a carriage full of children and stopped in front of the three of them. Jinhua and Si Niang immediately rushed off the carriage.
"Mother!"
"Third Aunt!"
Two human-shaped meat balls wrapped tightly in thick jackets suddenly rolled into Qin Yao's arms. The impact was like a calf rushing forward. Qin Yao only felt like she was hit twice with a big sandbag.
"It would be a waste if you don't practice martial arts to have such great energy." Qin Yao caught the two little girls and said with a smile.
After hearing this, Jinhua cried out and immediately pulled out of her arms, waving her hands to express her resistance. "I don't want to learn martial arts. I think it's hard for Dalang to learn martial arts. I don't want to. Third Aunt, please let me go~"
The little girl was so scared by what she said that she looked at her third aunt pitifully.
Before Qin Yao could say anything, the bad guy Liu Ji walked up to her, patted her shoulders and arms, and exclaimed:
"Jinhua, Third Uncle, I see that you have a unique bone structure and are a natural martial arts genius. Are you sure you want to waste this talent?"
Jinhua's almond eyes flickered, and she was secretly delighted, "Really?"
Liu Ji nodded, and seeing the light of expectation flashing in Jinhua's eyes, he changed the subject and said worriedly: "But practicing martial arts is very hard. If you can't stick to it and give up halfway, you may go crazy and die from the reverse of your meridians."
A slap accurately hit Liu Ji on the back of the head. He screamed "Ah!" and immediately asked angrily: "Who hit me?!"
"It's me." Qin Yao walked forward, gently pinched Jinhua's frightened little face, looked up and gave a ferocious smile to Liu Ji who was scaring the child.
Liu Ji sucked in a breath of cold air, and his anger instantly turned into an embarrassed smile, "It's okay then, haha, haha."
Jin Hua's eyes sparkled with tears. She grabbed Qin Yao's hand and said anxiously, "Third Aunt, I don't want to go crazy."
"Your uncle is trying to scare you. Don't worry, he won't go crazy, and he won't force you to learn martial arts. Good boy, go home." Qin Yao said with a smile.
Jinhua finally realized that she was teased by her uncle and glared at Liu Ji angrily, "Uncle, I don't want to talk to you anymore!"
After saying that, he walked angrily to the back of the carriage, took down the bookbox, and dragged it home.
Halfway through the walk, he turned back and said, "I'm going to tell my grandfather, Third Uncle, you're bullying a kid, shame on me!"
After scratching her face with her little hand to show her counterattack, the little girl turned around and walked into the old house triumphantly.
Liu Ji listened to the snitching voice from inside and touched his nose awkwardly, "This stingy guy."
He walked a few steps quickly, drove Yin Le out of the car, put the laughing Jin Bao down, and gave the boy who had the audacity to laugh at him a slap on the head, "Go away, go back to your own home!"
He carried Si Niang, who was about to stick with A Niang, to the carriage by force and whipped the horse, "Go home for dinner!"
Yin Le and Awang silently turned their heads to look at Qin Yao. The master/mistress must have worked really hard to have such a husband who is so proud of his children.
Qin Yao pretended to smile 'strongly', strode between the two of them, put her hands behind her back, and walked slowly home.
Yin Le looked at Awang, and Awang looked back at him. Their eyes met, and there was a flicker of fire.
After a disagreement, the two rushed out, and a short-distance sprint race officially began!
In the end, Awang rushed into the house three seconds earlier.
Qin Yao arrived last. She walked into the courtyard and gave a contemptuous smile to the childish people in the room. She turned to Li and said with a smile, "Let's have dinner."
Mrs. Li responded with a smile on her face. Her son Xiao Laifu had successfully registered today and would be able to go to school tomorrow. She couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about it.
She brought the dishes to the main room, and after putting them down one by one, Li did not leave as usual.
"Madam." Her eyes were slightly red, and she bowed deeply to Qin Yao who was sitting on the main seat: "Thank you for sending little Lai Fu to school."
Knowing Qin Yao's character well, Li did not say polite words of gratitude and repaying her, because she would prove herself with her actions in the future.
Qin Yao smiled and motioned for her to stand up. "You're welcome. It's my duty."
Li shook her head excitedly. How could this be considered as what she should do? It was clearly the Madam who treated them well.
Seeing that Li's eyes were red, Qin Yao was afraid that she would cry in front of her, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "Go and have a rest."
"Oh, right." Qin Yao told her, "Tomorrow Yunniang and the others are going to go to the bookstore in the city to buy books for the children. You can go with them after you finish breakfast and bring little Lai Fu with you."
Li was overjoyed and couldn't help but kneel down to thank him. Then she quickly stood up and left before the lady got angry.
Little Lai Fu was lying outside the door and heard everything in the main room. He saw his mother coming out crying and laughing. The mother and son looked at each other, full of anticipation for tomorrow's trip.
After Li left, Qin Yao's family started eating.
Erlang ignored his father's repeated reminders of dining etiquette. He quickly finished the food in his bowl, put down his chopsticks and was about to leave.
"Where are you going?" Liu Ji stopped him, "Come back and sit down."
"I just taught you a few days ago that there are dining etiquettes. The younger ones can only leave the table after the elders have finished eating."
Liu Ji said angrily: "You are now the sons and daughters of a juren master. If you are so unruly, you will be embarrassed when you go out to visit other people's homes in the future!"
Erlang looked at his father helplessly and said, "I have something to do. I need to teach the lessons I copied down earlier to Xiao Laifu. We agreed that I will help him become the top student after he enters school."
After explaining, he secretly glanced at the head of the family who was concentrating on eating, and said confidently, "Besides, this is at home, not as a guest at someone else's house. My mother didn't say anything."
Although the latter sentence was said quietly, Liu Ji heard it clearly. His mentality exploded instantly and he slammed the table and stood up: "Rebellious son, you dare to disobey your father!"
Erlang's shoulders trembled, not because he was afraid of his father, but because he was startled by the sudden roar. He subconsciously looked at A Niang.
Liu Ji reacted instantly and realized that Erlang, this brat, was actually provoking him on purpose!
I panicked, but pretended to be calm as I looked at Qin Yao. If I disturbed her appetite, I would be dead. (End of this chapter)
