Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man

The two rooms are also divided into two parts, the inner room is used as a bedroom, and the outer room is used to accommodate maids and receive guests.

Although they were in the same courtyard, they were clearly separated from the Zhao family.

Zhou Yu was also very satisfied with this. His two younger sisters were very shy now, so he decided to take things slowly.

But he believed that with Qin Ying's gentleness and patience, and An An's influence, his two sisters would definitely get better.

The fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month soon arrived. This winter was particularly cold. When I went outdoors, I didn’t even dare to take my hands out of my sleeves.

But when they heard that the rabbits were going to be slaughtered and the meat distributed, the villagers of Tongshutun forgot the cold and came to the rabbit farm early.

Qin Ying had someone catch twenty rabbits. The villagers who saw this couldn't help but ask, "Yingzi, are you going to kill so many rabbits at once? Are they enough for babies?"

Qin Ying smiled and said, "Don't worry, the breeding rabbits are all here! We've worked hard for a year, so we have to have a good New Year!"

All twenty rabbits were sent to Uncle Chen Jiu's yard, slaughtered collectively, and then weighed and divided equally.

The rabbit's blood was made into blood tofu, which was also divided equally.

After the rabbit skins are processed, they are first distributed to people working in the rabbit farm and the elderly in the village.

The Zhao family got a whole piece of rabbit skin.

There were originally two rabbit skins stored at home, and Qin Ying made a small quilt for An An, which would make her sleep much warmer at night.

I pieced together the leftover materials to make a pair of small ear warmers for everyone in the family, so they don’t have to worry about their ears getting cold when they go out.

Zhang Jinzhi also had a complete rabbit skin, and after discussing with Zhou Yu, he gave it to the Zhao family.

Qin Ying made a vest and two pairs of cotton shoes for An An.

Because it was cold, the meat froze quickly, so no one rushed to eat it and saved it for the New Year to improve their lives.

The Zhou sisters arrived on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.

They were all tall and thin, with faces that were about 50% similar to Zhou Yu's, but softer, and their skin was so white that it was almost transparent, just like dewdrops in the morning sun, beautiful and fragile, as if it would disappear at any time.

Zhou Qi was half a head taller than Zhou Mian. He protected his sister, who also looked wary, behind him. Both of them were trembling slightly.

This was Qin Ying’s first impression of them.

They were accompanied by two maids who were about seventeen or eighteen years old, but they were not allowed to serve closely. Their only role was to separate the male guards.

It can be seen that the two sisters do not completely trust Zhou Yu, but because they look similar, the sense of distance is not so obvious.

Zhou Yu didn't dare let them go into the house directly, so he invited Qin Ying over, introduced them to each other, and then accompanied them to the Zhao family's yard.

To be on the safe side, Aunt Zhao sent Zhao Hu to stay temporarily at Dashuan's house.

Seeing the two frail girls, Aunt Zhao felt distressed by their empty eyes and said, "Yingzi, please settle them down first. Mother will go make some hot soup."

Qin Ying led the four masters and servants into the newly built house, lifted the thick straw curtain, and a gust of hot air hit their faces as soon as they opened the door.

The room was dark, so Qin Ying lit the candle that Zhou Yu had brought to her in advance.

In fact, if you adapt to the environment in the house, you will not feel it is dark. It is only when people come that the light can reduce people's fear.

Zhou Qi and Zhou Mian looked around the room carefully and vigilantly.

Opposite the door is an octagonal table and two chairs, behind which is a straw screen that divides the room into two parts.

On the left hand side is a water tank and a basin rack, and on the right hand side is a small stove with a small straight water jar embedded in it. When the fire is burning next to it, the water in the jar will also heat up. As long as the fire is not extinguished, there will always be hot water in the water jar.

Qin Ying waited until the candlelight stabilized, and before rushing in, she turned to Zhou Qi and said, "Miss Zhou, this door must be bolted at night. The bolt is behind the door. If you are afraid at night, you can put another lock on it. It's in the small niche next to the door."

Zhou Qi's expression relaxed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Qin Ying smiled, walked inside, and pointed behind the screen: "There is a bed here. The two sisters can sleep here, but the place is a bit narrow and can't hold much."

The two maids looked at each other and said with a smile, "Thank you very much." However, they were unhappy in their hearts. They couldn't understand why the eldest master had to bring the two young ladies to such a remote place.

Not to mention the young ladies, even they had never suffered such injustice! This room was simply empty!

Qin Ying had naturally noticed their expressions, but she pretended not to notice. She lifted the door curtain and said, "There's a door in here too. It's very convenient to bolt and lock it."

She stood at the door, lifting the curtain, and waited until all four of them were inside before she said, "This is the room where the eldest and second daughters sleep."

There is a kang on the south side, and at the end of the kang is a large kang cabinet, on which are neatly folded bedding.

The kang had been heated in advance, so the room was very warm.

In addition to the floor cabinet for clothes on the north side, there is also a dressing table and a toilet with a lid in the corner.

The two maids were a little unhappy. The kang was so big that four people could sleep on it, so why did they have to sleep on the beds outside?

It's much colder outside than inside the house!

Zhou Qi looked around and breathed a sigh of relief. It was hot in the room and her thick clothes were a little loose, so she took off her sister's cloak first, then took off her own, folded it and put it at the end of the kang.

Qin Ying smiled and said, "You two girls have come a long way and must be very tired. You two should take a rest first. I'll go over there first and bring the meal to you when it's ready."

He nodded and turned to walk out.

Unexpectedly, two maids also followed out.

Qin Ying was a little surprised.

The two maids said, "The young ladies don't want us to serve them personally."

Qin Ying didn't say anything.

When we arrived at the yard, Zhou Yu had not left yet and was pacing back and forth restlessly.

Seeing Qin Ying coming out, he hurried over and asked, "How is it?"

Qin Ying shook her head: "I can't see anything wrong for now."

Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief and frowned as he looked at the two maids who were bowing to him: "What do you usually do?"

The two maids looked at each other's cards and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Young ladies, you don't want us to serve you. You just want us to taste the food before you eat..."

"When we settle in at night, no one is left in the ladies' rooms."

Zhou Yu's face darkened, but he said nothing more.

Qin Ying then realized that perhaps she had made a mistake in leaving beds for the two maids, so she said, "If you two sisters don't mind, please stay with us for a few days."

While Zhao Hu is away, the three of them can temporarily move to Zhao Hu's house and let them live in their original house.

The two maids pretended to refuse a few times and then agreed.

An An was feeding chickens in the next yard. She came back with an egg in her arms and raised it above her head with a smile: "Mom, let's make egg soup for Auntie at noon!"
