Chapter 185 - Regretting It Afterward

o were good at socializing.Thus, Jia's Second Madam was invited over early to help with the reception.With her wide circle of acquaintances and her ability to chat and laugh easily, no one in the flow...Young Master Ye was taken aback, then came to his senses and laughed, "Uncle, I have my subordinates search for these things, so I'm not very clear...

But all these are good things, planted well in the village. 。This is close to Kyoto, it will definitely sell for a good price then. 。"

The village head chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. “I agree. With half-sized boys watching over the field during the day and patrol teams at night, this piece of land is well protected.” 。He pointed to a small patch of cleared land, “That’s already been tidied up. In a few days we'll put up some shelters there, and Lao Zhao and the others will take turns living here.” 。Such a good cucumber, we can't let some uncouth animals ruin it. 。" Alright, Uncle. I'll do as you say. " 。If there's anything troubling you, and I'm not around, just ask Ye Shan and his wife. 。Master Ye felt the nervousness of the young girl in his arms, and gently patted her back. Jiayin quietly let out a breath. 。"Oh dear, I wouldn't want to trouble you again" 。"The village head puffed on his pipe and sighed, “This marks the complete settling of our people in this village. With everyone working hard, we’ll gradually take root here.” 。After some casual conversation, Master Ye held Lady Jia Yin's hand and walked towards the mountain valley. 。Jia Yin secretly peeked at Ye Gongzi's profile, seeing that he didn't seem to want to ask any more questions, so she became happy and her little mouth started chattering away. 。Young Master Ye walked slowly, with a plump little girl in his arms. She was heavy and pressed against his arm. Her voice was soft and sweet, and she nodded and shook her head happily from time to time, which also made his eyes smile. 。He liked the Li family, not just because they took him in and cared for him when he was sick, nor was it because of this magical little girl who pulled out a little pill to save his life. 。Instead, it was the Li family's peace and warmth that attracted him. For someone who had spent half his life on the edge of a knife, this was incredibly appealing. 。When he was out there fighting enemies, when he got hurt, when he was freezing or starving, he would instinctively think of the Li family's courtyard. 。 She remembered the nagging Li Lao Tai, the steaming hot meals, and this chubby little girl... Jia Yin saw him daydreaming, her expression joyful but slowly tinged with sadness. She didn't know what he was thinking, but she felt a pang of heartache too. 。Then she started making a fuss, demanding that Master Ye carry her. So, the big and small ones walked home together. 。As they reached the gate, Jia Yin carefully leaned into Ye Gongzi's ear and whispered, "Uncle, when I grow up, I will take care of you, just like how I am filial to my parents and grandparents." 。"How about it"

"Good"

"Master Ye smiled and asked in a low voice, 'Fu Niu has to work hard to earn silver. You have more people to support now.'" 。“ Master Hou is back! I was just about to go look for you. There are mosquitoes tonight, and Fu Niu always gets bitten all over. ” 。“

Jia Yin jumped down and ran towards Madam Cui with a smile. She was picked up into her arms and acted coquettishly, “Aunt Shi, Fu Niu wants some snacks!”

Before Madam Cui could answer, Old Li had already come out of the room, “No, eating snacks at night is easy on your teeth” >>> 。“If you’re hungry, let your mother steam egg custard for you!” Jia Yin stuck out her tongue at her grandmother and made a face, which caused Cui Fu and Ye Gongzi to laugh. 。Soon, Tao Hongying had prepared dinner. 。Li Laosi and Liu Biaotou haven't come back yet, but with Mr. Wen here, the family is not worried about their food and lodging. 。Miss Ye brought along Ye Shan and Dong Mei, while Mrs. Cui brought along Qiong's daughter, all having a meal at Li's house. 。Therefore, the men and women were separated and seated at two separate tables. 。A woman sat on the kang in the east room, while Li Laoer and Ye Gongzi, along with their brothers Jia Ren and Jia Yi, sat in the main hall. 。Tao Hongying cooked four dishes. She steamed pork and cabbage dumplings, and served them with golden yellow millet porridge. 。After a busy day, especially having had some alcohol at noon, eating this kind of home-cooked dish now is simply too comforting and warming. 。The women chatted, and the men ate and talked too. Both inside and outside the house, it was very lively. 。Jiayin sat on her special little stool, about the same height as a kang table. She took a spoon and ate some egg custard, then had a big steamed dumpling, and was full. 。After the meal, Old Li kept Master Ye at home. Though his courtyard was tidy, it wasn't as comfortable as his own. 。Young Master Ye readily agreed, so that night the big kang in the west room was turned upside down. 。Jia Yi, Jia An and Jia Xi all gathered around Ye Gongzi, asking him to tell stories about killing barbarians. Even Jia Ren, holding a book, sat aside. 。Master Ye picked a few stories that weren't so bloody but very dangerous, and told them. The boys listened with gasps of surprise, but their blood was also boiling with excitement. 。Jia Yi wished to immediately follow Young Master Ye to kill the enemy. Li Lao Er immediately poured cold water on his son, "There are only you and your fourth uncle who are skilled in our family. If you go to kill the barbarians, there's only your fourth uncle left. What if something happens, he won't be able to take care of everything!" 。In a few more years, the barbarian tribes will be on the north bank of the river. They can't be killed all at once in a short period of time. 。“Young Master Ye also nodded, “The barbarians have completely occupied Jiangbei. Riding on horseback, they come and go like the wind, it's really hard to kill them in a short time.” 。Even the claim that they could retake lost territory within a decade was an optimistic one, made on the grand stage. 。" Jiayì didn't insist on it, after all. Now that they had just settled in the village and there was this treasure trove of Hot Spring Valley, everyone was envious. " 。He followed Young Master Ye and would still think about his home. 。Throughout the night, Master Ye slept soundly accompanied by the snores of the young masters of the Li family. 。I had a bowl of hand-rolled noodles in bone broth for breakfast, then took people to Kyoto. 。The weather is really nice, it's a pity to stay inside. 。Then, Old Lady Li laid out an oilcloth in the courtyard and threw down a few cushions. The young girls sat together and did needlework. 。The bedding at home has been washed and dried, smelling pleasantly of sunshine. 。Jiayin lay in the middle of the bed, rolling around and giggling every now and then. 。Old Mrs. Li and several others each guarded one side, sewing and laughing along with the rest. 。Just then, Old Li came back. 。The old girls quickly beckoned him over and sat beside them, asking, "Well, what's the result Has the county office figured it out"Li Laosi scooped half a ladle of cold water and drank it down, nodding in reply, "There's both human and physical evidence. Guo Qing can't deny it either. After a few boards, he confessed everything." 。He bribed a group of martial artists and deliberately had the Guo family killed. 。 。But things were too smooth, and the people of Jianghu became greedy. They split into two groups on the spot. One group returned, while the other stayed in the north to collude with some bandits, planning to continue killing and robbing. But before they could carry out more evil deeds, they ran into us. 。Everyone listened with bated breath, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. 。"Fortunately, you were careful at the time, otherwise you would have suffered a loss." 。"Yes, it's actually a member of the martial arts world, not a bandit." 。"This Guo Qing is really ruthless, her own cousin, she just killed them all like that." 。"If a person is greedy, they can do anything." 。"Still, I have to thank Doctor Zhang. Without his poison, half of those people would have been killed before our village youths could even stand a chance against the martial arts masters..." "And Sister Qiong, she also helped tremendously..." 。Everyone was chattering, all of them pale with fear. 。Li Laosì looked around, not seeing Zhang Shenyi, and asked, "Where did Zhang Shenyi go He's truly amazing." 。Mr. Guo woke up on the road, but half of his body was unusable. 。Master Liu was helped to the clinic by someone and received acupuncture promptly, but the doctor said that he would not be able to walk on his feet afterward. 。">ks you to enter the palace immediately. I happened to be free, so I took on this task and made this trip.”Everyone was confused and didn't know what urgent matter the emperor had.The lord rose to chan...
