llagers all frowned and remained silent for a moment.But the young master seemed to think they were afraid, or perhaps didn't even consider a bunch of peasants worth his attention.He was delighted, fa...Perhaps drunk on alcohol, Lao Si Li returned home with a flushed face and told his family about going as escort with Liu Daibiao.

As expected, everyone was surprised to hear about the ten taels of silver.

This represents several mu of land's worth of harvest, and it's a bumper crop year.

Especially Wu Cuiflower, her two eyes were almost glowing green, just about to speak when she was gently kicked by Li Laer.

Remembering last night's beating, she immediately shrank her neck, but her mouth still muttered in defiance.

The result was that Li Lao Er drove him straight back into the house. Everyone present was used to this kind of scene.

"Lao Si, it's not that I don't trust Liu Daibiao, it's just... is this job safe Will there be any danger"

Lao Li tapped on the metal tobacco pot, but she still felt uneasy inside.

Tao Hongying held Jiayin without saying a word, her face also full of worry.

Jiao Yin stretched out her chubby little hand to comfort her mother, but her hand was too short to reach. She could only pull at her collar and whimper.

Li Laotai immediately took the good news, holding it close and comforting her. She rubbed her soft cheek gently.

"Little Fortune, are you worried about your father too Don't be afraid, let's hear what your father has to say."

Li Laosi stepped forward, touched his daughter's small face, and smiled.

"Mother, just put your heart at ease! This trip is going south, the weather is warm, and the road is easy to travel. Liu Diao tou wants to help me out, so our family can have a good year too!"

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a little relieved.

Liu Biaotou had been in this line of work for some years, with many capable people under his command. Naturally, he wouldn't be lacking a Li Laosi.

But he took the initiative to bring Li Lao Si along on this trip, clearly wanting to help out Li's family.

Li Lao thought for a moment, then finally nodded.

"Alright, go on! We've got you and your two brothers looking after things at home. Don't worry about Hongying and Funi either!"

Seeing her husband's expression, Tao Hongying guessed that she wouldn't be able to stop him. She could only nod in agreement.

Li Lao Si snatched the girl away and cherished her dearly.

"Haha, Little Blessing, bring some good luck to your father so he can come back safely and we can have a prosperous New Year!"

Jia Yin was poked in the cheek by her father's beard, pushing him away with a disgusted hand. Before she could even call for help, Jiayi had already started shouting.

"Milk, I'm going too! I want to go on a鏢 mission with Uncle Four! Today at the鏢 bureau, I sparred with Liu's kid, and he couldn't beat me! If he can go on a鏢 mission, so can I!"

Li Laosì also wanted his nephew to get some exercise and helped plead on his behalf.

"Liu, the head鏢師, praised Jia Yi as a good prospect for martial arts and said that he might even pass the wushu exam in the future. He suggested that Jia Yi accompany him this time!"

Li Jiayin quickly stretched out her small hand and ran towards Jia Yi, managing to save herself.

Jiarren went to study, this Jiayi's second brother was born with supernatural strength, martial arts is also a good choice.

Then she cried out a few times, but everyone couldn't understand what she was saying. They just saw her saliva dripping out like broken beads...

Li Laotai glanced at Li Laoer, saw him slowly nod, and didn't stop him.

"Alright then, you'll go out and train with your fourth uncle. Just remember to listen to your fourth uncle and Master Liu, don't be reckless!"

Li Jia-yi jumped for joy, his voice bubbling with excitement as he readily agreed.

Thus, the uncle and nephew decided to follow Liu Biāotou on his escort mission.

However, Old Lady Li specifically instructed everyone not to let Wu Cuiflower know for now, otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble she might stir up.

Then, everyone carried Wu Cuifang on their backs, preparing luggage and provisions.

On the day of their departure, everyone reluctantly saw Li Lao Si and Jia Yi off at the village entrance. Wu Cuifang was still a little dazed.

"What is Jia Yi doing following around, the fourth brother isn't lost and can't find the city gate. Does he still need Jia Yi to send him to the鏢局 What melodrama!"

While speaking, Wu Cuifang still wanted to step forward and pull her son, but she was pulled back by Li La'er.

"Jia Yi went with the fourth brother to escort the goods, don't meddle."

"What, he's going too" Wu Cuifang widened her eyes and exclaimed in a sharp voice.

"Oh dear, how heartless! My son is so young and they're making him go out to earn money! Isn't that like sending him to his death No, absolutely not!"

"Shut up!" Li Erchang flushed red, clamping his hand firmly over Wu Cuifang's mouth.

All the Li family members looked unhappy, especially Tao Hongying.

Li Lao Si had just set out when Wu Cuifang, that wretched mouth of hers, spoke to him in such an ominous way.

"Tsk tsk tsk! One more word out of you and I'll sew your mouth shut! Get lost, you're just adding to the problem!"

Li Laotai, her face dark with anger, scolded and, enraged, picked up Jia Yin and turned to leave.

Li Lao Si pulled up his belongings and ran as fast as he could, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

At last, only Wu Cuifang was left sitting at the village entrance, ranting and raving. Unfortunately, no one paid her any attention...

Another three or four days passed, and Li Jiayin's 100th day arrived.

Now that winter has just arrived, the wind is especially biting, making one's face ache. Even Jia Yin, who loves the bustle of life most, stays huddled on the kang and doesn't clamor to go out.

But Li Jiaren, who was studying far away in the county town, came home braving the wind and snow, with a body full of cold.

He went straight into the east room, bowed respectfully to his grandmother, then stood far away, gazing at his younger sister with a smile on his face.

Jiayin was diligently practicing rolling over, her little face flushed from the effort. Just as she succeeded, a cute plush doll appeared in front of her.

Jiayin stretched out her little hand to grab it, grinning with a pink gum line, she shook the doll toward her brother.

"This is a hundred-day gift I prepared for my younger sister. It's not worth much."

Li Lao Tai pulled her grandson up onto the kang, "As long as you have your sister in your heart, that's all that matters. Whether something is valuable or not doesn't matter. If your sister likes it, then it's the most valuable."

Grandma Li smiled and pinched her granddaughter's chubby cheeks, then picked her up and put her in her grandson's arms.

"Give your sister a hug, let's get some good luck from our little lucky girl!"

Jiārén was afraid that the chill on his body would affect his younger sister, so he had to lift her up.

Jiayin loved to hold things up high, giggling and laughing with joy.

As soon as she lowered her head, she noticed that her big brother's foot had turned purple from the cold, and it looked like he might even have frostbite. Her heart ached for him immediately.

What a shame! There's no cotton socks or snow boots in this world. My big brother has brand new cotton shoes but no socks to wear with them.

Sitting in the study all day, relying on a brazier for warmth, how could one not feel cold

It's still better to think about it quickly and find some way to keep warm.

Here, Li Laotai dragged her grandson to inquire about the food, lodging, and transportation of the academy. Meanwhile, Jia Yin was rummaging through the space and finally found two rubber hot water bags.

But this thing is a product of modern times, taking it out rashly has risks.

Then, the whole family finished dinner and went back to their rooms.

Jia Yin insisted on staying with Grandma and carefully took the hot water bottle out of the space and placed it beside the pillow.

As expected, the old woman was startled by the sudden appearance of the hot water bag and remained speechless for a long time.

Li Jiayin was anxious, pointing at the hot water bottle and calling out in a flurry of "ahh"s.

Old Mrs. Li only then came to her senses, touching her wildly beating heart and whispering softly to her granddaughter.

"Little Fu, is this for the family"arents' home easily whenever she wished.Wu Sanniang had no mouth to speak with, but her praise was clear. "This courtyard is really good, it must be comfortable to live in."Lao Li looked around and wa...
