"Thank you, Brother Big Tree."
Fang Dashu rubbed Fang Qing's head.
"Don't be so polite with me. Come visit me sometime."
"OK."
Fang Qing turned around and saw that Zhao Shi'an had already led the cow out of the alley, so she quickly followed.
"Brother, wait for me!"
Zhao Shi'an slowed down this time.
"Don't you like Brother Big Tree? Why don't you ever say anything when you see him?"
"If you don't like him, don't get so close to him in the future."
"I've been keeping my distance, but Brother Big Tree is so nice to me. Look, he even bought me candy, which wasn't cheap."
Zhao Shi'an gave her a disgruntled look.
Fang Qing didn't know why he disliked Fang Dashu, and seeing that he was unhappy, she put the candy away.
They went up the mountain and encountered several villagers who were also collecting mountain goods, including Dashan.
Da Shan hadn't dared to see Fang Qing these past few days, but now that he saw her, he quickly ran off with the other children.
After tying up the livestock, Fang Qing and Zhao Shi'an carried bamboo baskets to collect firewood.
Watching Zhao Shi'an's retreating figure, Fang Qing suddenly said, "Brother, let's go study."
Zhao Shi'an turned around, but he was standing quite far away, so Fang Qing couldn't see the expression on his face.
Thinking he hadn't heard her, Fang Qing repeated herself.
Why are you suddenly bringing this up?
"I just want my brother to study. You're so smart, you're sure to become a great person."
She thought that reading would help her understand principles and perhaps reduce Zhao Shi'an's villainous image.
Zhao Shi'an turned his head away and said coldly, "I don't want to."
Fang Qing sensed the disgust in his tone.
She didn't know what was going on, which showed that Zhao Shi'an wouldn't bring it up again.
Zhao Shi'an couldn't calm down for a long time.
Whenever he talks about reading, he thinks of his previous life.
He was sold by Zhao Jingzhong to a wealthy family. He was convinced that studying would lead him to success, so he did everything he could to become the young master's page.
One is a child who was sold into the household, and the other is a young master with power and influence. One can imagine what kind of life he lived for more than ten years afterward.
However, he later ascended to an unshakeable position, and those people all died by his sword.
He was suddenly struck by this thought and his mood remained so until he came down the mountain and went home.
They ran into the old woman at their doorstep.
It seemed that she was waiting for Fang Qing to return, and the moment she saw them, the old woman started cursing.
"You little bitch, you still have the nerve to come back!"
