"No." Lai Qirong took out one or two taels of silver from his waist belt, and Lai San also took out one or two taels of silver from his sleeve.

Lord Jin gave him another shock, and the matter was settled. However, the feud was also established.

Ye Xiao was at the yamen, and Liu Fugui took his men back. Outside the yamen, Mi Yao gave Liu Fugui two taels of silver.

"Uncle village chief, please divide this money among the brothers and uncles who helped us. Thank you all for coming to help our family today." Mi Yao bowed slightly.

"Hey, Ah Xiao's wife, this is not allowed." Several villagers said hurriedly.

"Don't be polite, this is a small token of our appreciation. We're sorry to have taken up your time for the whole morning. Ye Xiao and I thank you for speaking up for us. We are all in the same village, and we may need you in the future. Don't refuse." Mi Yao glanced at Liu Fugui.

"Okay, everyone, just accept it. If the Ye family has problems in the future, everyone just need to pay attention and help out." After several contacts, Liu Fugui already knew Mi Yao's character. When she said she would give it, it meant it sincerely. After all, they were in the same village, and she would definitely help the Ye family in the future.

"Uncle, you guys go back first. I'm going to buy some things. I'll go back by myself in the afternoon. You'll have to help take care of the things at home." Mi Yao said.

"Okay, go and get busy." Liu Fugui led a group of people back to the village.

Mi Yao wanted to buy some pipes today. Yesterday, she saw six toilets in the warehouse of the villa. They were all left over after the renovation. She never took them back and kept them in the warehouse. There were some pipes, but not many. Mi Yao calculated that they were not enough. So she planned to use the copper sewer pipes in the villa space for the indoors and other pipes for the outdoor ones. If anything was broken, it would be convenient to replace it.

I went to three grocery stores, but couldn't find anything suitable. Either the quality was poor or it didn't meet my requirements.

I looked at the time and it was time for lunch, so I went to a nearby restaurant. The first floor was full, so I went to the second floor.

Two simple dishes and a bowl of rice.

In the previous life, Mimo was a rough person. Sometimes he would be very particular about food, but sometimes, he would just eat until he was full. I remember when I was training on the isolated island, I ate raw mice and tree roots...

Thinking of the past, Mi Yao shook his head.

"Hey, second brother, I heard that your mortal enemy was crippled?"

From next door, a rough male voice came.

"Keep your voice down." The second brother was very alert.

"What are you afraid of? No one knows us. If someone blindly bumps into us, I'll kill him." The burly man said again.

"You seem to be getting more excited the more you talk. Let's eat quickly. Our eldest brother is still waiting for us up the mountain," said the second brother.

Mi Yao curled the corners of his mouth and said, "On the mountain? Why does this word sound a bit like a copycat?" He immediately became interested.

Hearing the two men coming out of the room next door, she followed them.

The two men arrived at the inn, paid the bill, went to the backyard, led out two horses, jumped on the horses swiftly, whipped the horses, and rode away.

Mi Yao was very interested in the stronghold of these two people, but they were riding horses and he couldn't catch up with them on foot.

So I had to give up.

When we got home, Cuihong and Yinghua had already cleaned up the kitchen. On the mountain, the neatly lined bamboo walls were also nearing completion.

Now all that's left is the house.

When the two little ones heard their mother coming back, they ran out. Mi Mo assigned new homework to the children. Now the two children have learned all the radicals and are starting to write some simple characters.

At night, the night owl came back.

"Do you know where the nearest cottage is from here?" Mi Yao asked.

The night owl was eating his vegetables and suddenly looked up.

"Why are you asking this?" Why did Ye Xiao feel that this woman's eyes were a little evil, as if they were emitting green light.

"Oh, I'm just asking, is there any?" Mi Yao asked.

"There is a Menghu Village at the border of Wan'an Town and Yongning County. Menghu Village has a special geographical location, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The bandits in Menghu Village are highly skilled in martial arts and extremely ferocious. They kill people like crazy and often rob passing escort teams and merchants. Sometimes they even kill ordinary people. It is not an exaggeration to say that they burn, kill, and loot, and their crimes are extremely heinous." said Ye Xiao.

"Then the court won't do anything about it?" Mi Yao asked again.

"The Menghu Village has a special geographical location. The village is on the top of a mountain and is surrounded by cliffs. There is only one road leading to the mountain, and this road is heavily guarded by Menghu Village. It is like one man blocking a thousand. The imperial court has also sent troops to encircle and suppress them many times. Not only did they suffer heavy casualties, but they became even more violent." Ye Xiao is in the yamen every day and he knows a lot of things.

"Oh!" Mi Yao couldn't help but look at Qingniu Mountain.

"What are you going to do?" Why did Night Owl have a bad feeling?

"I want to go and take a look?" Mi Yao said bluntly.

"No." Ye Xiao objected immediately. He put down his chopsticks and just looked at Mi Yao. Why was this woman so hard to understand?

"You have no right to control me." Mi Yao was very unhappy. Why should this bastard control her? He lost his mind after seeing her cook a few meals for him?

When Ye Xiao saw Mi Yao's fierce gaze, his momentum immediately wilted. Indeed, what right did he have to control others?

"I'm not troubling you. It's just that the Tiger Village is too dangerous. Those bandits not only kill people like crazy, but also rob women. If women fall into their hands, do you think there will be any good consequences?" Ye Xiao expressed his concerns.

"You don't have to say anything." Mi Yao returned to the room.

Ye Xiao looked at the table full of food and lost his appetite. Why is this woman so stubborn?

Ye Xiao got up and went to Shuanzi's house.

"Auntie, Shuanzi, it's time to eat!" The door was not closed, and Ye Xiao went straight into the yard.

When Ye Xiao saw a small pot of stewed chicken on both tables, he knew it was the leftovers from his family's lunch, so he took them back to Shuanzi's wife and his second sister-in-law.

"Ye Xiao is here, looking for Shuanzi!" Shuanzi's mother was very happy. Since Shuanzi and his two daughters-in-law went to work at Ye's house, they not only earned money, but also the food at home has improved significantly. No matter what kind of person Mi Yao is, as long as she can bring real benefits to their family, it's good enough.

"Yeah." Night Owl hummed.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Shuanzi stood up and was about to come out.

"You eat your food. Your sister-in-law and I are going to the county tomorrow. Your sister-in-law said she wanted to buy some ingredients that are not available in town. It happens that I have a day off tomorrow, so I will accompany her to the county. We are leaving early, so you should go there earlier. You can keep an eye on the house, and let Cuihong help me look after the two children. We will try to come back as early as possible." Ye Xiao said.

"Okay, brother. You guys go ahead. Cuihong and I will go there early." Shuanzi agreed.

Shuanzi's two brothers didn't say anything, but they were both honest people, and they smiled at Yexiao.

After saying this, Night Owl went back home.

The light in Mi Yao's room was off, and Ye Xiao thought that this woman must have given up. But there was a sound from the kitchen, and Ye Xiao walked over and saw Mi Yao taking out three bags, which seemed to contain plucked chickens and placed them in a basin with more than twenty potatoes.

There was also a piece of pork belly and two round vegetables. I don’t know what they were as I have never eaten them.
