Some people plant vegetables, some pick vegetables to prepare for cooking, some chop wood and wash clothes...
Everyone seemed to have a clear division of labor, and they were all very serious when working. They would exchange a few words from time to time, and the atmosphere was very good.
For a moment, Duan Qingxi even felt that this was not a mountain stronghold, but an ordinary village.
At this time, someone noticed Duan Qingxi.
"Isn't this Young Master Xiao Qi?"
Duan Qingxi looked up when she heard this and found that everyone had noticed her. They had all stopped what they were doing and looked very reserved.
There was even a lady who wiped her hands on herself, then walked towards her and asked cautiously: "Young Master Xiao Qi, is there something important that brought you here?"
Only then did Duan Qingxi realize that they were calling him.
Xiaoqi was a name that Helian Sheng randomly gave her because few people called her that. Helian Sheng never called her that when there was no one around, so she was a little confused just now.
Duan Qingxi smiled awkwardly and said, "Well... nothing much, I just came to take a look."
The woman was relieved when she heard this, but she didn't dare to leave and go to work immediately.
Knowing that his arrival disturbed them, Duan Qingxi said, "You guys go and do your work. I'm just here to look for Xu Xuan."
The woman said, "So Young Master Xiao Qi is here to look for Young Master Xu. Young Master Xu is teaching the children in the room over there..."
When talking about Xu Xuan, the woman was full of admiration. She must have been moved by Xu Xuan's behavior in recent days.
Duan Qingxi also nodded with great satisfaction. It was quite good that Xu Xuan could leave such a good impression in front of these people.
After letting them continue working, Duan Qingxi walked towards the house.
Before I got close, I heard the sound of a child reading.
The house looks very simple. It must have been built temporarily with some wood, so the situation inside the house can be seen through the gaps.
Children of different ages sat together in a circle. Due to limited conditions, there were no desks in front of them, but each of them held a piece of paper full of words in their hands.
Xu Xuan stood in front of them, holding a book in his hand, looking at the children with gentle eyes.
It can be seen that he is very good to these children, and these children respect him very much.
Duan Qingxi was watching outside, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
She didn't know how long she stood there watching, until her legs and feet became numb without her noticing.
After Xu Xuan taught for a long time, he asked the children to go back to work.
Although he did not encounter any objection from the village chief for teaching the children in this way, the second and third in command were very dissatisfied with him. He was also worried that his behavior would affect the children, so he did not dare to take up too much of their time.
The children were still reluctant to leave, but since Xu Xuan said he wanted to rest, they could only carefully fold the papers in their hands and put them away. They bowed to Xu Xuan to express their gratitude before running out happily.
Because she was running so happily, she didn't notice Duan Qingxi. Instead, Xu Xuan, who was walking slowly behind her, noticed her.
When he saw her, Xu Xuan was still stunned.
But he had always mistakenly believed that she and Helian Sheng were in cahoots with the people from the mountain village, so naturally he didn't have a good face for her. He didn't even say hello and just left.
Duan Qingxi thought his temper was a little cute, but she just smiled and didn't approach him to chat. She just left.
