Although Sun Chun was not as stunningly beautiful as the pink-faced scholar on the stage, his tall and slender body and handsome face were enough to attract a lot of attention. Even the older grandma Wang would probably not be willing to reject him.

"Then tomorrow, come with me to the town. We'll find a bricklayer and a carpenter together, and then we'll go buy a batch of wood. We'll choose a batch of furniture and daily necessities as well."

The fifteen taels of silver in her hands had already been spent eleven taels, there was still four taels of silver left. After hiring the bricklayers and carpenters, she estimated that the money would be gone, and she would have to look for Ding Liang for more silver. The wood was not cheap, and the new furniture would also have to be paid for.

"Mother, tomorrow, you, Little Brother and Sun Chun, we will leave together. I am worried about the two of you staying at home."

Xia Li suggested to the Lee's.

"Mom will listen to you. Whatever you say, mom will do." Lee's was currently extremely dependent on Xia Li and her heart was filled with pride.

"I also listen to my sister." Xia Qing tilted his head, pulled Xia Li's hand, and obediently answered.

"Then, let's go all out and work hard for our new home." Xia Li laughed happily.

Many times, life is just a thorn, touching it, piercing it, full of menace, not daring to touch it, always showing its sharpness and brutality, but it also prompts people in life to learn to grow a layer of self-defense armor, put on armor, master more tools, cut off sharp thorns, learn how to make thorns a tool of survival.

If you don't want to be beaten by life, you can only learn to be strong.

In the evening, Madam Zhou brought Little Stone to the courtyard for the first time ever. He patted Little Stone on his knees and apologized to Xia Li's family.

"Kneel down, apologize to Xia Qing, quickly."

Madam Zhou's voice was sharp, he pulled on his own child, pressed on his shoulder and knelt on the ground.

"Mom, you're hurting me!" Little Stone pouted and stared. He pushed Madam Zhou's arm and kneeled down unwillingly.

"Xia Li, big sister, my child was ignorant before, he was just trying to help me vent my anger, and playing with Xia Qing, when he was dragging Xia Qing, he accidentally slipped and let him fall into the well. No matter what, it is my son's fault, you guys have beaten him up already, this time, forgive my child, and don't go and report it to the authorities."

This is the chicken that I bought and a basket of eggs, take it to nourish Xia Qing. Furthermore, the people of the village no longer bother with us, and no child dares to play with my Little Stone. We have also received our punishment, can you let my child go?

The Madam Zhou said as he handed over the basket of eggs and chicken meat wrapped in oil paper to the Lee's.

Lee's looked at Xia Li, but did not extend his hand to receive all the things, he glanced at Little Stone who was kneeling on the ground with an unwilling expression, thinking about how his own son had almost destroyed a pair of eyes, and Little Stone who was in front of him, not getting injured at all.

"We don't want your things. Take your son and stay away from our Xia Qing, and stay further away from him, we are afraid, and can't offend your family, so please let us go. As mothers, I beg you, please understand."

Lee's was afraid that Madam Zhou would scold him again, so he got up and stood up for Madam Zhou, and injured Xia Qing. After he finished speaking, he protected Xia Qing back in his room, and closed the door.

"Then what you mean is, will you still go to the County Yamen to report our family's Little Stone?"

The smile that Madam Zhou had on his face did not last long, before returning to his usual overbearing state. He raised his voice and asked Xia Li.

"Son, get up. They don't even put us in their eyes. Why are you kneeling?" As Madam Zhou spoke, he pulled Little Stone up and carried a basket of eggs with him. took away the chicken and held it in his arms.

Little Stone demonstrated as he glared at Xia Li before bounding off into the distance.

"I only have this precious son of mine, if you dare to sue our Little Stone, I will fight with your family. Right, don't stay in this house anymore, we all have broken faces, do you all have the nerve to continue living here, within these few days, move out, no matter what, my mother-in-law is also with us, you all must give up on the idea of relying on her to support you all."

Madam Zhou said these harsh words as he twisted his waist and walked far away. Xia Li was so shocked that his chin almost fell to the ground.

"Is she really here to apologize or to demonstrate her worth? Does she really not feel the slightest bit of shame?" Xia Li was completely puzzled.

Sun Chun's eyes were so cold that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of her body, "What do you think?"

Xia Li was quiet for a while, and then made a decision, "There's no need to say anymore, this family, the further they hide, the better. Tomorrow, I will bring Mother and Little Brother to the town's inn and hide there for two days. Once the house has been repaired, we will directly move over to Tianshui Village. "

"Then stay for the last night." Sun Chun stretched lazily and sat down on the stairs, regaining his usual cold expression, he raised his head and looked at the full moon in the sky. His handsome face was also tainted with a layer of frost, and the corner of his lips slightly raised, creating a beautiful scene.

Xia Li blankly stared at his back, the depths of his eyes couldn't help but be affected.

How did this man grow up? What did he experience?

Sometimes, he was also a chatterbox, but when he was alone, it seemed that he had once again become the ice mountain man he had just met. He was very wary of everything and could not get close to her.

"What are you thinking, staring at me?" Sun Chun stared at Xia Li's dazed appearance, unceremoniously exposing her.

"No, it's nothing. It's getting late, rest early. We still need to go to town tomorrow."

Xia Li said, with a panicked expression he walked into the room, accidentally bumped into the door, without caring about the pain, he closed the door and hid.

Sun Chun laughed and continued to enjoy the beautiful moonlight. In the quiet night, the cool wind blew and the insects' chirps were sent over, causing him to feel sleepy. Unable to hold on any longer, he entered his room to rest.

At dawn, Xia Li brought Sun Chun, Lee's and Xia Qing to pack up the things in the courtyard and put them inside a house. After locking the house, the four of them walked towards the town.

This was the first time the four of them were traveling together.

Xia Qing was like a bird who had just released a cage, jumping and jumping along the way, looking at all sorts of novelty, he continuously talked with Xia Li about it. Lee's took care of Xia Qing along the way, afraid that he would fall and get injured, and unknowingly left Xia Li and Sun Chun behind.

Leaves were quietly hanging from the branches, and not a single strand of wind could be seen. The first rays of the sun had just appeared in the east, and the cool air assaulted the body, causing people to unconsciously wrap their arms around each other in search of warmth.

Chenopoeia walked along the road, stretching his arms, breathing in the morning air, pulling down a branch, plucking a few wildflowers, weaving them into a wreath, putting it on his head, and running two steps like a fawning deer.

"Good morning."

Xia Li formed a circle with his hands into the shape of a horn, and shouted towards the forest in the distance.

"Good morning!"

Sun Chun looked at Xia Li's crazy actions and could not help but scold him.

"Childish."

"I'm happy! Such good spring sunshine, how could I let it go? Come, shout along with me."

"Sun Chun!" Xia Li pulled Sun Chun and shouted towards the forest together.

Sun Chun blushed red and stared at her hands, "Call out yourself."

"You're so boring, just like an old man."

Xia Li shook his head, he did not try to force him to do so and let go of his hand.

Sun Chun quietly followed behind Xia Li, watching her figure go berserk in front of him, going away happily. Unknowingly, this figure gradually became a mark in his heart.

After half an incense worth of time passed, the few of them quickly arrived at the town. Xia Qing rarely came to the town, and upon seeing any novelty, he could not help but gape at it.

"Elder sister, can you take mother and I to town? What are we going to do? I want to eat the Soup Dumplings, is that okay?"

"Big sister brought you and mom here to treat you guys to some steamed buns. There's even a new house to stay in, do you like it?" Xia Li rubbed Xia Qing's head and asked.

"Great, I like to eat Soup Dumplings the most." After Xia Qing finished, he jumped and ran in front of Lee's to say the good news.

Xia Li brought Lee's and Xia Qing to a normal looking inn on the Red River Town.

Looking at the bustling crowd, the smell of food drifting over, and the few wealthy families dressed in gold and silver, Lee's lowered his head to look at his coarse clothes, shyly glancing at Xia Li.

"My daughter, our clothes are so ugly right now. They are really not the same as those rich and noble old wives and masters in the inn. Is it really appropriate for us to go in? It should be very expensive to stay there, if not Qing Er and I can go to the rundown temple for a few days, so there won't be a need to waste money. "

Xia Li looked at the men and women who were dressed pretty well in the tavern and felt that her consideration of the new clothes was a little inappropriate. In this long period of time, she hadn't properly arranged for Lee's and Xia Qing to wear outdoors, and had put all the flowery clothes she had bought earlier in the house.

"Mom, come with me." After Xia Li finished speaking, he pulled Lee's and Xia Qing along. Behind him, the four of them arrived at the biggest clothing store in town.
