After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

"Hurry up and do your homework. Finish it early and rest early. We have to get up early tomorrow." Yin Le urged.

"Yeah." Siniang nodded, told Yin Le to leave dinner on the kitchen stove, and ran to the main room to store a bowl of water for her before returning to the room and sitting in front of the window to do her homework.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled across the courtyard.

Seeing Siniang starting to do her homework, Yin Le walked into the kitchen to have dinner.

The physical exertion was huge, and she ate a lot more. She ate all the large bowl of food that Li left specially, and drank two large bowls of water before she burped with satisfaction.

Qin Yao dug out a relatively complete wolf skin from the warehouse and handed it to Yin Le, "Cow hide is the best for a belt. Then take this wolf skin and exchange it for a piece of cow hide."

Yin Le was slightly startled, a little at a loss.

"It's going to rain tomorrow, so the five-kilometer and night training sessions are cancelled." This half-day would allow her to regain her blood.

"What are you doing standing there, take it!" Seeing that Yin Le didn't move, Qin Yao stuffed the wolf skin into her arms and reminded her to find him in the back mountain in two quarters of an hour to teach her how to use darts.

Yin Le stared at her leaving figure blankly for a long time before blinking. He looked down at the soft wolf skin in his arms and rubbed his face curiously. The fur was so soft that he immediately couldn't bear to exchange it for cowhide.

But the belt had to be made, and she had to change it even though she was short of money.

Yin Le reluctantly rubbed it hard for a few more times, then folded the wolf skin, sat down and massaged his legs.

When the rest time is over, gather all your energy and set off immediately. Try to go to bed early tonight!

Unfortunately, it was still at the end of Haishi tonight before the master and the disciple came down from the back mountain.

Yin Le held a stick in his hand and faced his master's speechless gaze as he returned to the village with difficulty step by step.

Qin Yao was a little worried after all, until she saw the lights on Zhang Dafu's ancestral house in the village on the other side, and knew that she had returned safely, she closed the door and went back to her room to sleep.

Maybe it was because I got a sharp weapon like an iron rod today, and I was so excited that I found it hard to fall asleep for a while.

Counting the days, Liu Ji and Awang should have already boarded the ship, right?

According to her instructions before the two set off, she had to deliver a letter to her before boarding the ship. The letter may have been on the way by now.

But the real situation is different from Qin Yao's estimation. Liu Ji and Awang only arrived in Fucheng today.

In the middle of the night, Liu Ji suddenly sat up from his dream with a start, "Oops, I forgot to write a letter to my wife!"

He quickly climbed to the table, lit the candlestick, spread out the paper, and started grinding.

After all, they will board the ship tomorrow morning, and they must write the letter tonight so that it can be sent out immediately tomorrow morning.

In order not to delay the scientific expedition, the Qi family's ship would not stop at any port during this period, and would not be able to contact the outside world for ten days.

Therefore, if you fall asleep this time, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Liu Ji grinded it with one hand and patted his face with the other hand to wake himself up. He was glad that he didn't really fall asleep.

Liu Ji picked up his pen and started writing a letter under the gaze of Awang, who had already fallen asleep and was woken up in the same room.

When I wrote the first pen, I wanted to tell her about my trepidation and near misses along the way, but when I finished the pen, I suddenly felt that it was better not to tell her.

After all, nothing really happened along the way. All the worries and near misses were all made up by his own imagination.

In this regard, Liu Ji felt aggrieved.

Before leaving, he suddenly found out that he had a follower. He was very surprised and flattered.

but!

He's just a bastard, he's not stupid, he also has a brain, okay!

The evil woman sent him a ngawang for no reason. What does it mean?

Are you worried that he will encounter any unexpected dangers along the way?

Like the kind that kills you?

Otherwise, why would neither Qian Wang nor Song Yu, or the eldest brother and the second brother, be the followers?

On the first day after setting off from Liujiacun, Liu Ji was in a state of complete contemplation and fear.

The carriage suddenly ran over and a stone bounced, which scared him enough to make him cry like a pig.

Awang was speechless and calmly rode on.

Liu Ji never liked to torture himself, so he started to test things around.

"Awang, do you feel resentful when you come out with me?"

Awang: "No."

"Why don't you smile without you?"

Nga Wang: "I don't like to laugh by nature."

"Hahaha, I've seen through it, please tell me the truth! Are we being targeted by someone? Someone is jealous of your eldest father and my peerless appearance, so he wants to get rid of him!"

Awando blinked and said honestly: "No one is jealous of your peerless appearance, sir."

Liu Ji raised his eyebrows, but he didn't refute his first question.

That means you are really being watched!

It's over, Liu Ji thought.

It happened that a gust of wind blew over, and Awang felt hot and flustered, but his eldest father was suddenly startled, broke out in a cold sweat, secretly wrapped himself up, and looked around.

Awang: "Master, you don't have to be so panicked. No one wants to kill you."

Liu Ji's eyes widened instantly, "What did you say? Someone really wants to kill me? Who! How dare you kill a scholar appointed by the imperial court!"

Awang frowned in annoyance, hating that his mouth couldn't lie.

Talk more and take more measures, say less and make fewer mistakes, so Awang chose to remain silent.

Little did he know that in Liu Ji's eyes, this sudden silence was equivalent to a death sentence for him.

The two slept outside the inn at night, listening to the sound of wind and birds in the forest. Liu Ji kept his eyes open until dawn, not daring to sleep at all.

Awang saw that this mental state was not conducive to the scientific examination, so he used his own strength to calm the frightened mind of the old man a little - taking the old man to sleep in the mountains.

At dawn the next day, there were so many prey all over the ground that it was impossible to eat them all.

The two also went into the town and sold a lot, earning five taels of silver, and managed to stay in a luxurious inn at night.

Unfortunately, a vicious robbery occurred in the inn that night, which frightened Liu Ji so much that he thought it was for him and forced Awang to take him to the mountain to lie there for two more days, during which time he refused to go down the mountain. .

It wasn't until Awang couldn't bear it any longer and forced him to carry him down the mountain that the two of them were able to continue their journey.

For this reason, we arrived in Fucheng a full three days later than expected!

In just a few days, Awang felt exhausted that he had never felt before when he was running for his life, and he missed the days when he was farming in the village.

Fortunately, when we arrived at He Mansion tonight, we could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Awang took a comfortable bath, changed into clean clothes, and lay on the soft bedding. Only then was he able to replenish his depleted energy.

but!

A certain old man who woke someone up didn't care about his life or death at all. After writing the letter, he picked him up, thrust the letter into him, and said, "Take it out and mail it tomorrow morning."

Then he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Awang looked down at the letter in his hand, then looked up at Liu Ji, who was already snoring on the bed, clenching his cheeks.

He had a bold idea, and he didn't know whether he should think of it or not - he would sacrifice the eldest man as well. (End of chapter)
