Chapter 266: Oxen and Horses



Chi Xingyue didn't know either. This was probably the magic of space.

He casually picked an apple and gave it to the other person, then took Ling Jiheng to the walnut forest and chestnut forest to check in: “Well, the workload is quite heavy, I can’t handle it all.

Those in the detention room who can't move around freely and whose labor can't be exploited will be relying on you from now on."

Ling Jiheng nodded: "Don't worry, I will do my best to take care of it."

I dare not promise how to take care of it.

The space was vast, and what he had touched so far was just a corner. In the Great Yong Dynasty, a manor this large would have required hundreds of servants to barely operate. If he promised to do so, he would be overestimating his own capabilities.

Chi Xingyue didn't insist on him working day and night. By saying this, she was just telling him that she was going to give up and become a salted fish, and asked him to take care of himself.

After wandering around the orchard for over half an hour, we arrived at the flower greenhouse, where roses of various colors competed for beauty, as well as orchids, lilies, lisianthus, daisies, and other flowers.

Chi Xingyue picked a bright yellow rose and gave it to Ling Jiheng, then took him to the foot of the mountain to play in the water.

The spiritual spring water rushed down from the mountain, and Ling Jiheng finally understood why his young wife's face was cold that night.

After lingering here for a while, the two of them went back to the police station together.

Two hours had passed since they left, enough time for the thugs to figure out their choice.

That’s right, several big men in the detention room are waiting anxiously.

At first they were surprised by the environment they were in, but later they did not doubt Chi Xingyue's identity. They just thought that Master Xu was so short-sighted to be an enemy of the fairy.

Without even a moment's hesitation, he knew exactly what to choose. Especially after seeing his friend's miserable state, his conviction was stronger than ever.

They waited and waited for a long time, but the fairy never showed up.

I thought the other party had changed his mind, until I was desperate, I saw Chi Xingyue's late figure.

They cried with joy and prostrated themselves on the ground: "Fairy Lady, we are willing to reform ourselves and atone for our sins!"

Chi Xingyue nodded and signaled Ling Jiheng to bring in the dictionary, books, writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone. "Your task is to learn the characters and then transcribe the contents of this book into the writing of the Great Yong Dynasty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the thugs looked up in disbelief. They'd thought the punishment was just hard labor, but they hadn't expected it to involve reading and writing. Ah, kill them, and give them a quick death!

I thought this in my heart, but I didn't dare show it on my face. No one is not afraid of death, and those who are are forced into desperate situations.

"My Lady Fairy, we are the lowest beings and cannot even read!"

Chi Xingyue frowned: "No one can read?"

"My Lady Fairy, books are not something that ordinary people like us can afford to learn. Besides, we are dull and we can't learn even if the master asks us to!

Fairy Lady, how about we help you farm?"

Chi Xingyue refused: "I only have this one request. I'll give you half a month. If you can't learn it, you'll be reincarnated!"

The thugs immediately kowtowed to Chi Xingyue: "Fairy Lady, we understand!"

Chi Xingyue taught them to use radicals to look up words in the dictionary. The dictionary contains both the simplified and traditional Chinese forms of the word, which serves as a comparison.

No matter how dumb these people are, they can always copy correctly, right? After a while, won't they learn it? If they can't learn it, well, there's really no need for them to exist. Her space doesn't support idle people.

I went back to the village committee building and brought over a dozen steamed buns as their food rations.

Chi Xingyue even tempted them with chicken legs and big apples: "See, this fairy has plenty of delicious food. If you behave well, you can have extra food, do you hear me?"

The thugs nodded quickly, and Chi Xingyue said, "Hmm," "You guys choose a leader to be in charge of order in the dormitory. As for the names, let's arrange them like number one, number two, and number three."

Okay, hurry up and study. I'll come over tomorrow to check your results. If you don't pass, you won't get any food! "

Chi Xingyue's words really strangled the lifeblood of several people.

When they woke up, they noticed the difference in themselves. They didn't know how they could become so thin in such a short time.

On second thought, it seemed normal. After all, the temperature in the room was high enough that one could wear light clothing.

Several people speculated that one day in heaven equals one year on earth, and it might be late spring or early autumn now.

They haven't eaten for such a long time, and their stomachs are burning with pain. If the fairy doesn't give them food, they will definitely starve to death!

As soon as Chi Xingyue left, the group started looting. Everyone had a steamed bun, so if they wanted more, they had to resort to force. Number One, with his not-so-strong fists, quickly took control of the situation.

Finally, the steamed buns were divided equally.

Chi Xingyue sighed as he left the police station. "It wasn't a big deal before. I could come in whenever I wanted, and it didn't matter if I didn't want to. But now it's no longer possible. I have to feed them on time. It feels like it's more stressful than raising cattle and horses!"

Ling Jiheng chuckled: "Don't be so ungrateful. Those oxen and horses, if used properly, are worth more than livestock!"

How could Chi Xingyue not know this? She just said that.

I went to the village committee compound and looked at the time. It was already one o'clock in the morning.

He quickly pushed Ling Jiheng to sleep, and the two of them huddled together on the single bed in the dormitory again. They really asked for trouble.

Chi Xingyue had suggested sleeping outside, but Ling Jiheng found the space more comfortable. After spending time inside, the pain from his wounds had lessened. He wanted to get better quickly so he could share the burden with his young wife.

So, let him do as he pleases.

Time passed little by little and the day gradually brightened.

Baozhu remembered Chi Xingyue's instructions and did not disturb them.

After getting up, Shu Muyun and Ling Weicheng didn't dare to make too much noise. They checked the situation in each courtyard for the two people and made sure that there was no problem before paying their respects to Rongsiyuan.

The old lady asked about the young couple's situation before she started eating with peace of mind.

The steamed buns and oil tea they had today were Chi Xingyue's favorites. The old lady told Aunt Taohua to save some rice for the two of them and keep it warm by the fire.

Aunt Taohua naturally agreed, and said that she had made a lot today, enough for the second young master and his wife to eat.

In Zheguiyuan, Fu Huanping finally recovered some vitality after a night's rest, and was in the mood to check his own injuries, those of Chen Shitou, and Zhang Ke.

After taking this look, I found that Doctor Cheng's level was far superior to that of the military doctors of Zhou's army.

At least the military doctor was helpless against the barbed arrowhead, but Dr. Cheng saved two lives from the hands of the King of Hell.

This is such a great ability, he even wants to poach people. But it is conceivable that Ling Jiheng will not agree.

We can let the military doctor come here for further training, but I don’t know if Dr. Cheng can teach him everything he knows.

Fu Huanping was thinking about something when he heard Zhang Ke groaning. He suddenly came to his senses and realized that he had not sent anyone to report to Zhou Jiajun yet.

He quickly called Ling Yi and asked him to go and report his situation to Zhou Chengyu.

"Yes, that's right. After we wiped out the last wave of Northern Liao troops, Luo Changchun suddenly appeared and invited me to visit the Luo family..."
