Waves of night wind blew by, causing her to feel a little cold. She hugged her arms, and only felt her body become heavy.

"Why did you come out?" Sun Chun softly asked as he embraced her waist from behind.

"The house is a little hot and stuffy. If you can't sleep, come out and get some fresh air." Xia Li looked at the twinkling stars in the sky and said.

"Then let's sit in the courtyard for a while longer." Sun Chun said as he carried Xia Li and sat on the stone bench.

Xia Li took the initiative to hug Sun Chun, and looked around at the empty surroundings, quietly staying in his embrace, the two of them were enjoying the tranquil night scene.

"My wife, take a look. Is this star bright?" Sun Chun shook Xia Li gently, and lowered his head to ask.

Unfortunately, the little girl in his arms fell asleep very quickly, and he heard the sound of regular breathing. Sun Chun stood up with a smile on her lips, and carried Xia Li into the room. He placed her on the bed, opened the window, and fanned her softly with a fan in his hands.

Ru Shuang held the sword in his hand tightly, and stood outside the window, looking at the extremely loving Sun Chun and Xia Li, his eyes became somewhat moist. He turned around, and looked at the lonely night sky, and returned to the corner silently.

After dawn, Lee's sat on his bed like usual, drinking medicine, applying medicine, and embroidering. Just at this moment, someone knocked on his door unexpectedly.

Lee's looked over, and Ru Shuang walked in with a grey coarse dressed lady.

The woman's skin was dark, her hands were full of calluses, and her long hair was neatly combed behind her head. When she saw Lee's, she immediately kneeled.

"Yu Niang pays her respects."

"Quickly get up, why are you kneeling down?" Lee's sat on the bed as his legs were inconvenient. He was not used to people kneeling down in front of him.

"Madam, this is the person that the young master has found to serve you. She has no children now, so she will be by your side forever." Ru Shuang introduced the place to the Lee's.

Lee's remembered that Xia Li and Sun Chun had mentioned this to her before. She just did not expect the two of them to move so quickly.

"Yu Niang, my legs are inconvenient right now. When I'm better, you can accompany me while you take good care of Qing Er." Lee's said to the Yu Niang who was kneeling on the ground.

"This servant will listen to the madame's arrangements in the future." Yu Niang kneeled on the ground, looking at the ground as he replied softly.

"Then get up, don't always kneel." Lee's said again, feeling very apologetic in his heart.

"Yes, madame." Yu Niang stood up from the ground and walked to his side.

"Since this is the first day that Yu Niang has come, and has served you, Madam, there must be a lot of things that I do not understand. Today, I will first teach Yu Niang for a day." Ru Shuang and Lee's explained.

"I'll do as you say." Lee's seemed to feel fatigued, and rushed to the embroidery workshop by himself. After drinking the medicine, he went to sleep.

"The madame is kind and compassionate, but that does not mean that she is easy to bully. If I find any slights in you, I will definitely chase you away." Ru Shuang warned the Yu Niang who was standing beside him.

"This servant dares not." As Yu Niang spoke, he knelt down on the ground once again. His eyes flickered with extreme fear and his body continued to tremble.

"That's good." Ru Shuang stared at Yu Niang, who had already fallen asleep, and sighed in her heart. Her master was too soft-hearted, and this servant would treat her slowly, she had seen too many things, and did not want the Lee's to be looked down upon for no reason, so she had to keep on playing with the Yu Niang, and let her know the basics of being a person.

The moment Xia Li opened his eyes, he habitually went to look at the people around him, but after he had pounced on empty air, he could not find Sun Chun in the entire room. Outside the room, Ru Shuang guarded the room and saw the anxiety on Xia Li's face as he took the initiative to speak with.

"Reporting to the Madam, the Young Master went to the Qingzhou Prefect and has something to discuss with the Prefect."

Xia Li was a little embarrassed for a moment, but she smiled bitterly: "It doesn't matter, he has matters to attend to, I can understand."

"Young Master wanted to let Madam sleep a little longer, so he left without saying a word to you." Ru Shuang was afraid that Xia Li was not in a good mood, hence he explained.

"Yes." Xia Li nodded, he did not want this to ferment further, so he changed the topic: "Ru Shuang, come with me to see Mother, I wonder how her leg is recovering."

"The Yu Niang has already been arranged for you to take care of her, rest assured Madam." Ru Shuang replied quickly.

"Yeah, I think it's better if I go over and take a look." Xia Li said and went to the west wing.

In the west wing, Yu Niang was helping Lee's apply the medicine. Xia Qing was sitting on the table eating lunch, and the room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

"Sister, come and eat with me." When Xia Qing saw Xia Li, he pulled her to the table and sat her down.

"Sure, let's eat together." As Xia Li said that, he pulled Ru Shuang who was behind him and sat on the table as well.

"Madam, your subordinate cannot sit with you."

"We don't have any masters or subordinates here. We're all sisters, so there's no need to take it to heart." Xia Li did not give Ru Shuang any chance to reject her offer, and pulled her along to sit at the table.

"I will add two sets of tableware for Madam and Ru Shuang's Female Academy." sat on the table and looked at the few dishes in front of Jin. Cucumber was mixed in cold water, egg was fried in wood ear, and several bowls of meat porridge. The food was light and was just right to Lee's's appetite.

The entire morning, Yu Niang was busy with work, he did not even care about eating, in Xia Li's eyes, he was very satisfied with the person Ru Shuang had found, as for how he treated himself, he still needed time to train.

"Yu Niang, you eat with us as well." As Xia Li said that, he pulled the Yu Niang and Ru Shuang to sit together.

"How can this be, ma'am, a rule!" Yu Niang might have been instilled with a bunch of rules by Ru Shuang, so at this time, he was the same as Yu Niang, sitting at the table uncomfortably.

"You two, hurry up and eat. Otherwise, your food will get cold. After eating, I still need to go to the stronghold to busy myself." Once Xia Li said that, Ru Shuang and Yu Niang looked at each other, their emotions wavering.

"Alright, let's eat!" Xia Li said as he stuffed the chopsticks into the hands of the two men.

"Yeah, hurry up and eat, Little Li and I have the same intention, we don't have a master or servant here, we're all family." Lee's looked at the two people at the table and advised.

"Yes." After Ru Shuang finished speaking, he took the chopsticks and took a bite of the dish.

Seeing Ru Shuang move his chopsticks, the Yu Niang also started to eat as well, secretly observing his expression from time to time. This cautious look made Xia Li's heart ache even more.

After finishing breakfast, Xia Li and the Lee's spoke a few simple words, then left the courtyard and went back to the stronghold.

Uncle Fu was busy in the courtyard, seeing Xia Li and Ru Shuang arriving at the village, he immediately went to welcome them.

"Madam, you're here."

"Uncle Fu, the main reason why I'm here today is to discuss about the association with you. I've thought of a few ideas to let everyone in the village live a good life, why don't you listen to it for now."

"Madam, this weather is very hot, please come this way." Uncle Fu was elated to the point that his beard was raised as he walked towards his own courtyard towards Xia Li.

When Xia Li and Ru Shuang entered the courtyard later, the Uncle Fu passionately gave two bowls of white water and placed them on the table.

Xia Li looked at the courtyard of the Uncle Fu, it had two floors and two floors. In the courtyard, he planted a few herbs, raised a few chicken and duck rings, it was a typical farmyard.

"This is my wife's fried peanut. Madam, try it. I bought it from the market at the foot of the mountain." The Uncle Fu said as he placed a plate of peanuts in front of Xia Li.

Xia Li looked at the Peanut in front of him that had been fried to death. It was completely black, without any oily water, he resisted the urge, ate one, and poured all the white water into his stomach.

Ru Shuang also barely managed to eat one, he wiped off the black ash on his mouth, drank the white water, and did not touch the chopsticks anymore.

"We've already finished the Uncle Fu before we came here. You guys can take it to eat." Xia Li pushed the peanut in front of Uncle Fu.

"Then we'll eat." Uncle Fu seemed to be hungry for a long time, as he pulled his wife who was busy working in the kitchen to the table. With Xia Li's permission, the two of them sat down on the seats and started eating the peanut with gusto.

When Uncle Fu finished washing her face and hands, and sat in front of Xia Li again, she asked directly.

"Uncle Fu, yesterday, you and I took a look around the village. Our surroundings are surrounded by mountains, and we have an abundance of resources, especially herbs, so we might as well sell them all at a low price. We might as well mobilize all of us to pick a certain herb, and I will buy them all."

After Xia Li finished speaking, even Ru Shuang who was at the side was stunned, and was unable to comprehend what she was trying to do for a moment.

"Madam, would you like to purchase it in one go? Where did you get the money from, and do you want to sell all of these medicinal herbs? " Uncle Fu stood up from his seat, he was still a little worried. Although this idea was not bad, uniformly purchasing herbs, every family would be able to get a regular amount of income.

To be honest, Uncle Fu, I am also a doctor, although my hospital has suffered many twists and turns and I almost closed my doors, but I have prepared to pack up my ten over hospital and start my new business again, and I am lacking a large amount of medicinal ingredients. With people from the village helping me purchase them, for you to earn a sum of income, isn't that also a good thing?
