Chapter 190: Unexpected Guests

r kids were warned not to wander off.All actions should be carried out under the direction of an adult, including even going to the bathroom. Always inform an adult and go with a companion.Thus, every...After these rules were set, everyone in the new village understood more clearly what they were busy with every day.

The whole new village operated like a well-oiled machine.

Besides Jia Yin, such a little girl, there was no idler in the village.

Even Li Laotai sometimes carries Jiayin to the melon field to help with weeding and topping, earning five work points.

Of course, everyone in Li's family strongly opposed it. They were afraid of tiring the old lady and also afraid that Jia Yin would get sunburned.

Jiayin is a glutton, she has raised herself a little pot belly. She's chubby and cute, but who knew she was so sensitive to the sun!

She only went to the fields with her grandmother for a day, and when she came back, half of her face was visibly darkened. Looking at her frontally, one side was white and the other black - truly a yin-yang person.

Everyone at home laughed uncontrollably, which made Jia Yin angry. She pouted her little butt and buried her head under the covers, refusing to come out.

As a result, the blanket was suddenly thrown open, and she was also pulled into his arms.

Jiayin was a little annoyed and looked up to see that it was Ye Gongzi who had come. She started to cry, aggrieved, clutching onto Ye Gongzi's neck tightly.

"Wah wah, Uncle, is Fu Niu an ugly child Father made fun of me, and my brother laughed too!"

Young Master Ye couldn't help but smile either. The chubby little girl was now a face of black and white, no matter how you looked at it, it was amusing.

But the little girl burst into tears. He couldn't bear to see her cry, so he quickly comforted her, "Funiu isn't ugly at all. This is just from the sun. It'll be fine in a few days if you stay indoors."

"Really" Jiayin choked back tears, feeling a little embarrassed by her撒嬌. After all, she was old at heart, but looking at her short arms and legs, hmph, she was still just a child! She could be willful and angry!

"Wow, wow wow! Fu Niu is angry, Fu Niu isn't an ugly child!"

"Okay, okay, don't cry, Funiu, don't cry!" Ye Gongzi panicked and quickly opened the box he brought. "Look, Uncle brought you some good things."

Inside the box was a pair of gold bangles, with two hollow little bells dangling below, particularly delicate and beautiful.

Young Master Ye handed the heavy gold bracelet into Jia Yin's hand. The precious gift immediately brought a smile to her face.

Both bracelets were solid, with gold bells added, totaling over three ounces. That's over thirty ounces of silver!

Luxurious, too luxurious, but... she loved it! So her tears immediately changed their course, flowing from the corner of her mouth!

Young Master Ye saw that although the plump girl's eyelashes were still wet, her eyes sparkled and she drooled, looking like a little money-lover. He couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

Jia Yin wiped her mouth, clutched the bracelet tightly, and didn't mind being made fun of. She went downstairs to look for grandma.

Li Laotai was killing a chicken, and hearing her granddaughter's crying, she ran into the house. She bumped into her granddaughter head-on, and Jia Yin fell to the ground on her bottom.

Li Laotai hurriedly scooped up her granddaughter, "Little ancestor, you're crying and laughing again, what on earth is the matter This little girl is truly becoming a spirit! A bit tanned is nothing to be laughed at by family members, right Tomorrow I'll have your father and them all go out and tan themselves black, so they can accompany you in your darkness. How about that"

Jiao Yin heavily kissed Grandma's cheek and excitedly showed off to her, "Grandma, Grandma, Uncle gave me a treasure!"

Li Lao Tai took a glance and was so startled that she quickly pulled out the young master Ye who had just come out.

"How come you're giving Funiu jewelry again She's just a child, how would she know what's beautiful or not And such expensive things! You should keep this gold and make some nice jewelry later for when you marry a wife!"

Young Master Ye smiled and listened, then said, “I received quite a bit of gold and silver when I killed the barbarians before. Let me give Fu Nier a small trinket with one ingot of gold. Don’t worry, Auntie, I’m not short on money.”

Then Old Madam Li felt relieved, but also even more grateful. This was a gift from the Emperor, imbued with dragon qi. Her granddaughter wearing it would surely be beneficial.

"Alright then, auntie will take it for Funiang this once. But from now on, it's over."

"Good, I understand, Auntie." Young Master Ye took the chick from Jia Yin and sat aside watching the old woman tend to it.

Soon everyone was back home, Jia Yin ran all over the yard with her new bangles, wherever she went, the bells would ring.

Everyone in the family knew that the little girl had been angry before, so they showered her with praise, praising Jia Yin to such an extent that she was extremely proud.

I thought Ye Gongzi would stay for the night, but after lunch, he had to leave.

The Li family members couldn't bear to part with him and asked, "Are you going to kill the barbarians in Jiangbei again this time"

"No, this time I'm stationed at the dock. I volunteered for the post. In case there are any commoners like you who cross the mountains, we can help them right away," said Young Master Ye.

"Yes, yes! This is wonderful!" Lao Li recalled the terrible events of the past and still shuddered.

Back then, each city gate charged a fee, so many people, like them, were forced to enter the forest out of desperation.

Although the forest is full of dangers, with wolves, tigers and leopards lurking everywhere, there are certainly many who have successfully made it through.

We mustn't let them be hunted by barbarians even as they see the dawn.

"Then go quickly, it's close by. In a few days, have the fourth one bring you some food."

Young Master Ye waved his hand and rode away with his personal guard.

He thought the old lady was just saying it, after all, his family was busy and probably didn't have time to prepare anything for him.

But Old Lady Li was serious. That evening, she brought her daughters-in-law and noodles, intending to make hanging noodles.

Upon hearing this name, Jiayin initially thought it was like the delicate, intricate automata of the past. But despite her drowsiness, she looked at it for a long time and grew increasingly impressed by her grandmother and mother's meticulous thoughtfulness and craftsmanship.

Hand-rolled noodles, fermented dough, kneaded once and stretched twice. Each noodle is made by hand, a truly labor-intensive process!

The first batch of noodles were hung in the yard at noon the next day, swaying gently in the wind, like curtains.

The summer wind was both warm and gentle, the sun also diligent, in a day's work, by evening the hanging noodles were eight parts dry.

Cut them down to a suitable length with a knife and let them air dry in a well-ventilated place overnight, then they will be thoroughly dry.

Jiayin held a small stick, tied a red silk ribbon to it, and helped drive away sparrows and flies. She forgot about her little face in the process, and when she finished making the noodles, she had turned into a little black charcoal.

To make up for her granddaughter's wounded vanity, the old woman specially made a bowl of braised noodles.

Life is always busy and beautiful. The Li family only thinks about food when they are free. They have stocked up fifty kilograms of dried noodles and a whole jar of meat sauce.

Li Lao San is going to build a stove in the corner of the yard again. Tao Hongying is preparing to roast some dried meat crispy cakes and will also send some to Ye Gongzi. This kind can last for a month without spoiling.

After dinner, Jia An and Jia Xi accompanied their younger sister in playing hide-and-seek in the courtyard. Jia Ren chatted with grandma, while Li Lao Si and Jia Yi helped Li Lao San with chores. Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru tidied up the kitchen.

Li Lao'er said that during the day, a customer scolded the young man. He said, "I'll go find the village head and say that from now on, we should drive out guests like this."

"Yes, that's right! If the children of our village are not in the wrong, they shouldn't be bullied. At worst, we just won't earn this silver!"

Li Laotai loves her children the most and can't stand it when they are wronged. She chased her son away, saying, "Go quickly and come back early to sleep."

"Understood, Mother," Li Lao Er stood up and pushed open the courtyard gate to go out.

As soon as the door opened, Liu Biaotou and his men were seen surrounding a middle-aged woman.

Liu, the leader of the鏢 (protective escort), stepped forward and said, "Second brother, while we were patrolling, we caught someone acting suspicious at the village entrance. She said she was looking for Li Zhensheng's house. Hearing the name, I thought it sounded similar to yours, so I brought her here."

Li Lao'er got one foot inside the door and one foot outside, directly nailed to the spot.

It took him a long time to find his voice. He asked, "Who is she looking for Li Zhensheng"

Jiā'ān Jiāxǐ, with her hands on the palanquin carrying her younger sister, just reached the doorstep when she heard this. She turned around and shouted, “Grandma, do we have anyone named Lǐ Zhēnshēng in our family”

The elderly woman's needlework basket

clattered to the floor with a bang, scattering the needles and thread all over!
