Ye Shuang then understood, so it was still because of her? But this bandit could be used.
The village already knew about the bandits in the mountains, which was the real reason why Li Mantian and his men came down the mountain. Now, the wild animals on the mountain had been almost wiped out by those bandits, and even if there were any left, the commotion caused by their settlement had driven them to even more distant places.
Bai Xue could actually find prey deeper, but that would take Li Mantian and the others too far. They were unwilling to go that deep, as they were likely to get lost. After all, they had provisions at home, and no one wanted to take risks unless absolutely necessary.
Ye Shuang patted Bai Xue's head to encourage her and whispered a few words in her ear.
Bai Xue obeyed the order and ran out the door when Li Shi opened it, disappearing in no time.
"Hey, Bai Xue, she's really gone wild! She can't even stay home for a day." Before Li Shi could even call out, Bai Xue had already disappeared. She could only turn back to Li Mantian and complain, "Bai Xue should be able to find her way home, right?"
Li Mantian waved his hand: "Don't worry, Bai Xue is very smart. She's probably just going out to stretch her muscles and will be back in a while."
Even Ye Shuang nodded and said, "Mother, don't worry, Bai Xue knows the way home."
Since even Ye Shuang had said so, Madam Li was no longer in a hurry. She left the door slightly ajar so that Bai Xue could enter the house when she returned, and waved to Ye Shuang, saying, "Shuang'er, it's time to practice your needlework."
Ye Shuang couldn't help but look up and sigh. How could this never end? Ah, she really wished Bai Xue could take her with her when she left.
Her lifeless look made Li Mantian smile. He patted her head and said, "Shuang'er, your mother's needlework is the best in the village. Only you can inherit this skill. If even you don't learn it, your mother's skill will be lost. Don't you think that's a pity?"
What's the pity? Even if she teaches it, who else can she teach it to in the future? People in the cultivation world don't use such old-fashioned methods to make clothes and embroider. But if it were in the mortal world, it would indeed be a pity! Oh well, she can just pass it on to a child she finds pleasing to the eye later.
Ye Shuang forced herself to cheer up and followed Li Shi, picking up the handkerchief that was already half-embroidered again and continuing to sew.
The original owner is indeed smarter than the bell, and has made quite good progress in the past few days. Madam Li praised Ye Shuang for finally getting the hang of it, saying that she was almost ready to give up when she couldn't teach her no matter what she tried a few days ago.
Upon hearing this, Ye Shuang immediately stopped what she was doing. So if she had pretended for a few more days that she couldn't learn anything, would Madam Li have stopped making her continue learning every day? This is really... so frustrating!
If only she had pretended for a few more days! In all her years, this was the first time Ye Shuang had ever felt such deep regret!
Fortunately, Li stopped when she saw that Ye Shuang was really impatient. She patted Ye Shuang's head, who was a little angry, and said, "Shuang'er, don't blame your mother for being heartless. These are all things you should know. Even if you have everything now, your mother will leave one day. You need to have a skill to survive, right? Even if life is not good in the future, there will be a way for you to supplement the family income."
Ye Shuang thought about the huge pile of things in her storage ring, as well as some jewelry that had been piled up for years without being used. Hmm, she thought that she probably wouldn't live her life the way Li Shi described in her lifetime.
