"Don't worry, we won't hurt you." Han Yimo waved his hands repeatedly at his vigilant eyes, thinking that she must have been abused so badly by those so-called relatives that she was scared out of her wits. Otherwise, she wouldn't be like a frightened bird, whose thorns would stand up at the slightest thing.
"We just want to get you to join us. We don't want you to do anything else. Just cook and fry. Fetching water, chopping wood, grinding rice, grinding flour, etc. are all left to us." Han Yimo put away the smile on his face and said seriously.
"Qiao Mo, our cooking skills are too poor. We almost got poisoned several times because the food was not cooked thoroughly. You are a good cook. Our cooperation can not only ensure our safety, but also reduce your burden. It is a win-win situation. I hope you will consider it carefully." Kang Mingyuan saw that his brother almost messed up the matter, so he had to speak to smooth things over.
"Yes, yes, Brother Yuan is right. For our own safety, you should just be kind and team up with us. Don't worry, we will be your family from now on. We will also help you if you need any help."
After hearing Kang Mingyuan's words, Han Yimo remembered the last time when both of them were poisoned because the green beans were not cooked thoroughly. If Wu Da'e had not come to find them, the consequences would have been disastrous. In order to be able to return to Donghai alive, he must pull Qiao Mo over.
"I'm an orphan. I broke up with my uncle's family before coming here, so no one will subsidize me. If I live with you, your living standards will be lowered." Qiao Mo said lightly.
"We don't receive any subsidies from anyone. We all earn our own livings. There is no question of anyone being implicated." After hearing what Qiao Mo said, Kang Mingyuan felt relieved.
"Also, although I'm a girl, I have a big appetite. If you team up with me, you'll be at a disadvantage." Qiao Mo thought that she had to cultivate her supernatural powers and practice martial arts, so her appetite would not be less than that of an adult man, so he acted like a villain first and a gentleman later to avoid conflicts later.
"It doesn't matter. In addition to working to earn money, we can also go hunting in the mountains, catch fish in the river, and catch loaches and eels in the fields. I guarantee you will have enough to eat." Han Yimo didn't care how big her appetite was. He didn't believe that with their ability, they couldn't fill the stomachs of three people.
"Okay." Qiao Mo saw that they were inviting him sincerely, so he hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
"It's a happy decision, Qiao Mo, welcome to our big family." Han Yimo extended his right hand to Qiao Mo.
"Okay, please take care of me in the future, big brothers." Qiao Mo didn't act pretentiously and put her hand on him. It was better to be able to team up with others than to fight alone. Otherwise, she would not only have to fetch water and chop firewood by herself, but also have to buy a lot of things.
"From now on, we will work together and share the joys and sorrows." Kang Mingyuan put his hand over her, and the three of them said hello. Kang Mingyuan gave her a key to the kitchen and said that she would be in charge of kitchen matters from now on.
Since they were eating together, Qiao Mo moved his own food over and dismantled the newly built stove.
As night fell, the number of mosquitoes suddenly increased, as if they were pouring in from all directions. Qiao Mo, who was sitting in the flat land to enjoy the cool air, was bitten by several big lumps on his hands and legs, so he had to go into the house to rest.
There was a moon outside, but the room was dark. Qiao Mo didn't have an oil lamp, so he planned to find a few candles from the wooden bracelet space as an emergency measure.
"Qiao Mo, you don't have an oil lamp, so use this for emergency." At this time, Han Yimo brought over a homemade wind-killing lantern made of a can. This was what they used when they went out. They had also brought a flashlight, but a flashlight requires batteries, and the battery brigade's sales outlets were often out of stock. They didn't want to go to the commune just for a pair of batteries, so they made this lamp with a can.
"Thank you, Brother Han. I will go buy lamps and oil tomorrow and return them to you later." Qiao Mo did not hesitate and gladly accepted their kindness.
"It doesn't matter. Apart from teaching literacy classes, we rarely go out." Han Yimo nodded.
Liu Ruoling, who was next door, saw that Qiao Mo not only had dinner with Kang Mingyuan and the others, but also lent her an oil lamp. She felt very uncomfortable and said to Chu Maoshen with a pout, "You really can't judge a person by appearance. She has learned how to seduce men at such a young age."
