Chapter 64 Mr. Yan is a female teacher!
Li Qiutian naturally trusted Li Shiyue.
Along the way, Li Shiyue and the Li Qiutian and Li Xiatian sisters ate together, slept together, and even killed people together.
No cousin in the world has a relationship as close as that of Li Shiyue, Li Qiutian, and Li Xiatian.
"You're my sister, who else can I trust if not you?"
Li Shiyue received Li Qiutian's reply. She looked into Li Qiutian's eyes by the moonlight and said, "Sister, open your mouth." Li Shiyue opened her mouth and said "Ah."
Li Qiutian, without suspecting anything, opened her mouth as if imitating Li Shiyue.
Li Shiyue then put the fertility pill that she had prepared beforehand into Li Qiutian's mouth.
Yes, Li Shiyue had taken advantage of being alone before to claim the mission reward, which was a fertility pill.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Shiyue decided to give the fertility pill to Li Qiutian.
As for why she doesn't eat it herself?
Li Shiyue has taken the fertility pills twice, and now her strength is greater than that of an adult. She guesses that she is now stronger than those soldiers with some martial arts skills.
Of course, the greater the strength, the better. The higher the combat power, the more confident you are in protecting yourself and those around you.
However, Li Shiyue also discovered that the strength to grow requires energy to support it.
In summary, she now needs to eat a lot to feel full.
Just like those two dry biscuits tonight, for an average person, they're just enough to keep them from getting hungry.
However, for Li Shiyue, eating this was almost the same as not eating at all, and it even made her feel even hungrier.
Therefore, until she can ensure that she has enough food, there is no need for her to take this fertility pill for the time being.
So, should we save them up like we do with Shenbao pills, and wait until the right time to use them later?
But along the way, it is clear that chaos is coming. Even if the people of Li Family Village can take advantage of Li Shiyang to settle down in Andong again, will they really live a peaceful and good life after settling down in Andong?
That's impossible.
When a building is about to collapse, no individual can possibly turn the tide or protect themselves.
Therefore, it is of utmost importance to unite all forces that can be united.
Thus, Li Shiyue had the idea of giving the fertility pill to Li Qiutian.
Li Qiutian was her cousin, and they had a close relationship, having killed people together. Moreover, Li Qiutian inherited the Zheng family's talent for immense strength; despite her young age and short stature, she possessed the strength of an adult woman.
Giving the fertility pills to Li Qiutian is the most cost-effective option.
So, isn't strengthening your sisterhood the most appropriate choice right now?
As for Li Qiutian, after taking the fertility pill, it's possible that after feeling her own power increase, she might regard Li Shiyue as a monster, believing that Li Shiyue is possessed by a demon, and want to join forces with Li's mother to kill her.
But what business can be without risk?
Should we not do it just because there are risks?
If all choices are based on maximizing benefits, then that is the best choice.
Li Qiutian immediately noticed that the fertility pills were sweet. She assumed that Li Shiyue had gotten some candy from somewhere and deliberately waited until everyone was asleep before calling her out to eat it alone.
When she bit into the "candy," a stream of water rushed down her throat.
Li Qiutian opened her eyes wide in surprise. Just as she was about to ask, Li Qiutian looked at her and said, word by word, "It's a good thing, sister. Don't ask, and don't tell anyone else."
This is something you and I should know, and we must not let a third person know.
Sister, trust me, just listen to me, okay?
After Li Shiyue finished speaking, Li Qiutian checked her mouth with her tongue and found that there was nothing there. She saw the seriousness in Li Shiyue's eyes and nodded, saying, "Okay."
Afterwards, the two actually went to the outhouse. When they returned to the house, sure enough, Li's mother was still awake and waiting for them.
After seeing Li Shiyue and Li Qiutian lie down, Li's mother turned over and went to sleep.
They slept soundly through the night, and before dawn, many people in Lijia Village were already up.
This was because everyone had become accustomed to waking up early after fleeing the famine. Even after waking up and realizing that they were now safe, the habit was hard to break, and they all got up eventually.
When Zhu Laowu heard from his shop assistant that not many people bought pancakes last night, he knew that the people of Lijia Village were not willing to spend money, so this morning he asked his shop assistant to bring firewood to sell.
"The shopkeeper said that if you want to cook for yourselves, you can set up a stove in this yard, but you'll have to pay for firewood and water."
Even though firewood and water have to be bought, after all the calculations, cooking porridge yourself is still the most economical option.
Several families pooled their resources to buy a bundle of firewood and two buckets of water, and that was enough to provide for their meals for the entire day.
Li Shiyue was so hungry that she ate more, but she still restrained herself and only ate about half full, just enough to make her stomach feel better.
Li Shiyang came to find her right after she finished eating.
"Sister October, I told Grandpa that I'm going to buy some gifts to visit Mr. Yan Jun during the day."
Yesterday, the ship owner told me that nowadays, only Mr. Yan's family controls the large ships from Dongmu to Sanshan Port. The implication was that Mr. Yan is directly under the command of the Prince of Zhenbei.
This matches what Manager Liu said.
What Mr. Chen told me at the time was that I should go find Mr. Yan first.
How can we board the ship? What are the requirements?
We should all meet with Mr. Yan and ask him properly.
How about it? Is October going?
Of course Li Shiyue was going; not only was she going, she was also going to dress up nicely before she went.
Because Li Shiyang clearly had dressed up, he was wearing the hat that scholars usually wore, and he had changed into a clean set of clothes. Wasn't he dressed up?
This clean and tidy attire was a matter of etiquette in front of others. Li Shiyue told Li Shiyang to wait a quarter of an hour, then turned around and asked her mother to watch the door. She quickly washed her hands and face after entering the house. Her mother quickly helped her comb her hair into a double bun, and she changed into a clean set of clothes that she had been keeping in her bundle before leaving the house.
With this disguise, it's not easy to hold that wood-chopping knife.
However, Li Shiyang also invited Li Wangshui, and Li Shiyue handed over his wood-chopping knife to Li Wangshui for safekeeping.
Li Wangshui's task was simple: he just combed his hair, then carried a basket on his back, putting the machete inside.
Just before the three of them left, they encountered Zhu Laowu, who was about to enter.
"Oh my, what brings you here, young master?"
"Manager Zhu," after exchanging greetings, Li Shiyang said with a smile to Zhu Laowu, "I was just about to ask you about something."
"Of course, of course, please ask away, my lord."
From Zhu Laowu's words, it was learned that Mr. Yan usually stayed in Xingshenglou on Haiping Street, and that one should go early to visit him, because there were quite a few people who wanted to see Mr. Yan.
The three of them left the inn and, following Zhu Laowu's instructions, went to Xiang Guifang to buy four kinds of pastries, and then to Chaxiangji to buy a jar of peach blossom wine and a bottle of fine tea.
This peach blossom wine from Cha Xiang Ji was something that Zhu Laowu specifically instructed me to buy, saying that it was Mr. Yan's favorite.
The journey was long, so the three of them hailed a horse-drawn carriage. Yes, there were horse-drawn carriages available in Dongmou County.
By the time we arrived at Xingsheng Building, it was already mid-morning.
Upon entering Xingsheng Restaurant, the welcoming waiter led us to a long wooden bench. "Young master, take this wooden slip. It has your number written on it. Listen carefully to the announcements from the second floor. When your number is called, take this slip and go upstairs."
Someone upstairs at the door received the young master's wooden slip, meaning the young master would then be able to see Mr. Yan.
Li Shiyue waited until evening, and just when she thought she wouldn't be able to see Mr. Yan today, someone on the second floor suddenly called out the number on the wooden slip in Li Shiyang's hand.
However, once they reached the second floor, the servant at the door only allowed two more people in. Helpless, Li Wangshui handed the gifts to Li Shiyang and Li Shiyue, watched them go inside, and then stood outside staring at the servant.
As soon as she entered, Li Shiyue smelled a faint floral fragrance. When she went over the screen and went inside, she saw a woman sitting on the low couch, wearing a red dress and a red flower in her hair with a gold hairpin.
Two maids dressed in green stood to the left and right of the low couch.
There was no one else inside.
So, in other words, this Ms. Yan Jun is a female teacher!
