"Tingting," Jianjun called out to her from outside the door, it seemed something big had happened.
Tingting brought out some hot ginger soup for Jianjun. "Rest for a while, honey, and have some ginger soup. It's so cold outside, warm yourself up quickly."
Jianjun took a moment to catch his breath and then drank all the ginger soup in the bowl.
He said slowly, "Wife, you are so thoughtful. I am so lucky to have you."
"Stop talking nonsense. What happened today that makes you so anxious?"
"Guess whose house is on fire?"
"How could I possibly guess? Tell me quickly, don't keep me in suspense."
"Was it the Qin family's house that caught fire, or was it set on fire by someone else?"
"It couldn't be this Qin Yecai, could it? Did they catch her in the end?"
"It's not wild vegetables, it's Wang Laizi, the village rogue."
"Hey, that's strange. They have no grudge against each other, so why did they start a fire?"
"Wife, do you want to know?"
"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly, could I have guessed wrong? That can't be right."
"Honey, let me tell you, when we got there today, we burned everything to ashes."
"The whole family went up the mountain to catch fish, saying that Qin Yecai had found them, so the whole family, young and old, went up the mountain."
"Honey, does that mean our place has been discovered? After all, I only see our river on that mountain."
"You guessed right, wife. That's why you're called our family's female Zhuge Liang."
Stop talking nonsense and get to the point.
"Then Qin Yecai has an alibi. She's a 13-year-old girl, and besides, they were all together, catching fish as a family."
The team leader started searching with his whole family to see who had gone out that day. Who would go out for a stroll in the dead of winter? Their padded coats weren't warm enough, their meals were bland and they were always hungry. Anyone who went out must be the problem.
"Then they discovered that this Wang Laizi didn't love his family, and that's when suspicions arose."
"The whole village was searching, and they finally found him in a trap, but he was gone."
"Jianjun, I have a feeling that I can't help but be connected with this time-traveling woman."
“Wife, I also suspect her. When she was talking about Wang Laizi being in the trap, her expression was off, and I noticed it.”
"I guessed it was related to her, but how did I convince Wang Laizi? How did we get in touch on this matter?"
"Honey, do you think Qin Yecai might have promised Wang Laizi something that made him work so hard?"
"Wang Laizi is a rogue, but he can't possibly like Qin Yecai, can he?"
"I was convinced it was her who did it. In the end, she took care of it. Think about it, she's a Qi Transmigrator. Things that seem impossible to us are easy for her."
"It seems we really can't underestimate her. This isn't safe either. Next time, let's go deeper into the mountains. This area is also unreliable."
"It's a bit difficult to make money now. We should dress as inconspicuously as possible. Being unnoticed is the safest thing to do. We don't want to be targeted by her. Although we're not afraid, we don't want to cause trouble."
Jianjun nodded. You can't underestimate women; their methods and scheming are formidable.
"Alright, let's just pretend we don't know, honey. Let's hurry up and get on the kang to warm up. We've been running around all day, and our shoes are all wet. We'll be ready to eat soon."
Actually, the two of them guessed half of this correctly.
Qin Yecai harbored deep resentment towards this family. Besides her adoptive mother, she also hated her four younger sisters. She even secretly resented her cowardly father, who hadn't uttered a word when he was beaten, proving his weakness.
Back in the Wu Dynasty, she was a hunter with great strength. Although she was all alone in her family, she was still a capable person. She was just about to find a son-in-law to live with her when she was accidentally attacked by prey and came here.
She lives alone and has had her share of suitors, but she's dealt with them all. I never expected there would be someone so suicidal.
Qin Yecai also gradually went up the mountain to hunt, eating meat every day on the mountain. With good food, he had energy, and his strength gradually recovered. Killing a wild boar by himself was no problem.
One day, while hunting in the mountains, he saw Wang Laizi sneaking into the widow's house. Upon seeing this, a plan came to mind.
"Uncle Laizi, what are you doing?" Qin Ye asked, feigning innocence.
"I'm just strolling around here, I'm just bored."
"It's a joke that someone can eat their fill at this time."
"Uncle, I know what you're going to do. I'm going to tell the captain. Is that alright?"
"Qin Yecai, I think you're tired of living, daring to threaten me."
"Uncle, I'm not threatening you, I just want to do business with you."
"Business? You're a fool who's been beaten to a pulp by the Qin family, and you can still do business?"
Hearing Wang Laizi speak of him like that, he secretly resented him, thinking, "Just you wait, I'll see how I deal with you later."
"Uncle, my grandma has a lot of money, at least 800. You know she hit me last time, and my aunt's family too. If you go and get it, it's all yours."
"This old lady is quite thrifty with so much money," Wang Laizi thought to himself.
"Do you think I'm stupid? You want to get revenge on someone, and you want me to do it? Aren't you underestimating me?"
“How can this be considered foolish, Uncle?”
Listen to me: "I'll think of a way to get this whole family up the mountain. I left some firewood inside the house before we left. You can just give them the firewood and set it on fire. Who would have thought of you?"
"Secondly, I won't tell you about your midnight climb over the wall; that's our secret."
"Thirdly, I heard my grandma say that she wants me to marry the mentally challenged man from the next village next year. I thought, why not marry your uncle instead of this mentally challenged man? The money will be ours, and I can give you a big, healthy son. We'll be family then."
"Aren't you afraid I'll tell the captain what you said, or you won't be able to leave, Qin Yecai?"
"What good will it do to tell them? If they find out you went to someone's house tonight, will you have a good outcome?"
"As for not letting me leave, you can try. The fact that I came to you proves that I'm all prepared. Just do as I say."
"Oh, sure."
Wang Laizi went up and started grabbing wild vegetables, getting handsy and touching them, saying, "How about I charge you some interest? Anyway, you'll be my wife soon."
The wild vegetables didn't refuse, but wishful thinking was out of the question.
"Once I get this money, I'm your wife. You see, you don't have any money either, and I can't let us starve."
"No problem." What trouble can this little girl cause? Once I have the money, I can do whatever I want with her.
The two hit it off immediately. Once the deal was done, Wang Laizi came to the foot of the mountain to find Qin Yecai. Qin Yecai took the opportunity of saying she saw a wild rabbit to meet him, knocked him unconscious, and the rest is history.
The rabbit naturally went back to tell the family that it hadn't been caught, and got a scolding. No one would have guessed it was her, but unfortunately, Jianjun and his wife already knew her background.
