Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled
Chapter 147 Men and women are not intimate with each other
After hearing what it said, Shen Qingge thought for a moment and nodded in response:
"Well, alright then. Just stay in this space for a few more days to regulate your breathing and practice your human form transformation skills. Don't eat too much!
But, having said that, you are now a "man", so you have to be more careful when entering and leaving the space in the future. You can't be as careless and reckless as before!
After all, men and women still need to maintain a certain distance from each other, as the saying goes, men and women should not touch each other! "
After hearing this, Shui Qilin couldn't help but mutter:
"Alright, alright, I get it! I never thought you'd be so particular about these formalities, Master. You're so hypocritical!"
As soon as the words fell, it flashed and quickly slipped into the space, as if it was afraid that Shen Qingge would reach out and hit it the next moment.
Shen Qingge stayed where she was, chuckled twice, then she stretched out her arms lazily and yawned twice in succession, and a wave of sleepiness swept over her.
She fetched a basin of water, washed herself briefly, and quickly got into the warm and comfortable bed.
Not long after, Shen Qingge fell into a deep sleep.
In her dream, she returned to the familiar marquis's mansion again.
The courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion was bustling with activity. The brothers were brandishing swords and knives in the courtyard. The father and mother were leisurely admiring the flowers in full bloom in the garden, whispering to each other from time to time, their faces filled with happy smiles.
The sisters-in-law gathered together, happily teasing the children, and the children's silver bell-like laughter echoed throughout the courtyard; while the kind grandmother sat peacefully in the rocking chair, slightly closing her eyes, enjoying this warm moment.
Everything is harmonious and beautiful!
Unfortunately, it was just a dream!
……
Three more days of leisure passed.
It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze, and everyone was busy in the yard.
The eldest sister-in-law led Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao to carefully and meticulously clean up the fallen leaves on the ground in the yard, while the second and fourth sisters-in-law carefully tended to the few plum trees and daffodils in the yard.
The two sisters-in-law carefully trimmed the branches, watered and fertilized the flowers so that they could still bloom brightly in winter.
The warm sunlight shines down, bringing warmth to people.
It was a rare opportunity to have such a nice day with clear skies, and the third sister-in-law was not idle either. She hurried out of the house with thick quilts in her arms, ready to hang them in the sun.
Just as Shen Qingge had said before, although the winter in Lingnan was not as snowy as in the Central Plains, due to its proximity to the sea, moist and cold air would quietly come.
This damp and cold air is pervasive, not only making people feel uncomfortable all over, but also making clothes and quilts damp and unbearable.
Seeing his third sister-in-law struggling to carry a pile of bedding that was much taller than her and walking unsteadily out of the side room, Shen Qingge hurriedly quickened his pace to meet her.
She quickly took the heavy quilt from her third sister-in-law's hand, and then helped her hang the quilt on the clothesline in the yard.
At this time, my grandmother, who was still sitting in the house, was not used to the climate here and coughed dryly from time to time.
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Jintang hurried into the house and helped his grandmother out so that she could bask in the sun and relieve her physical discomfort.
Shen Qingge, who had just finished the work at hand, turned and walked into the kitchen, lit the stove, and boiled a large pot of spiritual spring water.
Then, she used her mind to pull out a small handful of licorice from the space, which has the effect of clearing the lungs and relieving coughs, and used it to make tea.
These licorice roots have absorbed the spiritual energy in the space, are of high quality, and have excellent medicinal effects.
Not long after, the water boiled and was poured into the teapot. Hot steam also rose from the teapot, as if a white cloud was swirling in the air.
Shen Qingge carefully poured a cup of brewed licorice tea for everyone and handed it to everyone one by one.
The spiritual spring water is perfectly blended with the licorice that is full of spiritual nourishment, exuding a unique fragrance. After drinking it, people feel extremely comfortable and warm.
Just as everyone was immersed in this tranquility and comfort, there was a sudden "creaking" sound. It turned out that the door of the courtyard was pushed open. The people who came were Zhou Xuli and several of his soldiers.
Today, the identities of the Shen family members are still criminal slaves. Even if the King of Lingnan shows leniency and shows special mercy to the Shen family, they still need to undertake some labor tasks.
Look, Zhou Xuli came here specifically to bring them the work they needed to complete.
Zhou Xuli waved his hand and ordered the two soldiers behind him to lift the two looms together and place them in the center of the hall.
Then he ordered three other soldiers to move the piles of chopped and neatly tied ramie into the house.
A woman who was about thirty years old came in from behind the soldier.
She was wearing a coarse linen dress, but she kept it very clean. Her honest and kind look made people feel good about her.
At this time, I only heard Zhou Xuli say politely:
"This is Aunt Liu who lives next door. She has come here today to teach you how to weave!
As for your task, it is very simple. You just need to hand over ten pieces of linen within the next month.
When the time comes, I will personally send someone to collect it."
After saying that, Zhou Xuli chatted with the Shen family for a while about family matters, then said that he had other important matters to deal with, and turned around and left in a hurry.
Just as he was about to step out of the door, a soldier who had been following him ran up to him and asked quietly:
"Brother, isn't the task you assigned them this time a little too easy? Only ten pieces of cloth a month is enough!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuli suddenly raised his hand and slapped the soldier on the forehead, while deliberately lowering his voice and responding:
"How can you be so stupid! We can't afford to offend these dignitaries!
Just deal with it casually and do superficial work. If they ever turn their fortunes around and regain power, it will be us brothers who will suffer!"
Hearing this, the soldier nodded as if suddenly understanding something, and echoed repeatedly:
"Ah...Brother Zhou is really thoughtful. I understand!"
In the small courtyard, apart from Shen Qingge, no one else could hear what Zhou Xuli and the others said.
At this moment, all the women present frowned slightly, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes, staring closely at the weaving tools and the ramie on the ground.
My grandmother did use this loom when she was young and unmarried, but it has been so many years that she no longer uses it.
As for the other sisters-in-law and Shen Qingge, they had been living a life of luxury since childhood. They had only used linen after being exiled, let alone how to weave it. They had no idea at all!
