Outside the open courtyard gate, many villagers were still watching.
He embarrassedly begged Qinling for forgiveness.
"Uncle, can you please not kneel? It's so embarrassing with so many people watching!"
Qinling's eyes darted around, and a plan came to mind.
"Sure! As long as you gain the villagers' trust, you can go to the county with your third cousin to work on the martial arts school!"
