The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cangyue Country's Nanlai Paradise

"Miss," Qian Qing came out of the room on the first floor of the main house, carrying a bucket of water: "Are you hungry?"

"You go ahead and do your thing, I'll serve breakfast." Ye Ling opened the lids of the two pots. One contained porridge and the other contained buns, both of which were made by Qian Qing in the morning.

Qian Qing mopped the floor of the first floor of the main house skillfully. Because Feng Qingyang loved cleanliness, he specially bought the best wooden floors when building the house. Except for the open-air stove, all other rooms were covered with them. This way, he could mop the floor clean with the mop made by Ye Ling, and it was also convenient to clean up.

"Dinner is ready!" Ye Ling shouted.

A family of five sat at a round table under a transparent parasol in the yard and started to eat their first breakfast after returning.

Li Ye looked up at the transparent parasol while eating. "Miss, Qianqing said you made this. What material is it made of? Why is it transparent? It's so unique and the quality is good. It's been a few months and it still looks new."

"It's a secret. Sometimes it's inconvenient to eat on rainy days," Ye Ling said with a smile. He really wanted to say: This material is made with top technology. It probably won't be too worn out even after a few years, let alone a few months.

"Miss, the only room left for me to clean is the room where Brother Li will stay tonight. I will help you after I'm done," Qian Qing said.

"After you finish cleaning, sort out the things in the kitchen first, then take the two children to clean up the yard and prepare lunch. Let Li Ye unpack it first. I'll go to the river to fetch a few buckets of water. The water tank is empty," said Ye Ling.

"I can fetch water, how can I let you do it?" Qian Qing said.

"You don't know martial arts, and you're exhausted from running back and forth. I'll just treat it as exercise, so don't worry about it."

"Thank you, Miss." Qian Qing was very happy: "Miss, to be honest, I still like this place. It's simple, comfortable, and peaceful."

"Otherwise, why is it called Paradise?" Ye Ling smiled and suddenly remembered something: "Oh, I almost forgot, I have to get the chicken coop and dog kennel out first."

"Yes, I forgot too. We bought a dozen chickens and a dog yesterday," Qian Qing said.

Li Ye's lips moved, but he couldn't help asking, "Miss, I remember there were... five roosters, a dozen hens, and a big yellow dog. They were all alive. Where are they...?"

"In the doghouse and chicken coop!" Qian Qing said, "But the cages haven't been opened yet. I don't know if the chickens and dogs are still alive. I put them in the woods to fend for themselves when I left."

Li Ye immediately stood up, walked out the door, and came back after a while: "Are you really in a chicken coop or doghouse? I remember last night we...we even...Forget it, I won't ask anymore, let's eat! Hehe...eat the vegetables." Li Ye didn't dare to ask anymore, because Qian Qing was staring at him.

Ye Ling looked like he was watching a play: "Qianqing, we have been traveling for the past twenty days. You have all worked hard. Make a few more dishes for lunch today. I want to eat meat."

"Don't worry, Miss, I will make all your favorite dishes."

"Okay, by the way, Qianqing, you can take Eighth Sister and Wanqi to sleep on the first floor of the main house for the next two days. There are soft beds and it's very spacious."

"I want to sleep with Eighth Sister," Wanqi said.

"Okay." Qian Qing smiled and picked up another small bun for Wanqi: "Tonight, you and Wanqi sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the couch, okay?"

"Thank you, sister," Wanqi and Eighth Sister said in unison.

"Hurry up and eat. We will have to live a good life here from now on. Miss, I don't want to go out anymore. If you have anything, you can go out with Li Ye to do it. The three of us are safe here," Qian Qing said.

"Okay, but about Stonehenge, ah~" Ye Ling said with a slight sigh: "If Jiuyou wakes up, he will definitely be able to completely change the center and direction of Stonehenge. Even if Uncle Xia comes, it will be difficult."

"Miss, you don't believe in Master Xia? He is the sworn brother of Master and Master Feng."

"We should be on guard against others, but we should not have the intention to harm others," Li also said.

"Yes, at present, only senior brother and Uncle Xia know about this road. We don't need to be on guard against senior brother, as he is very familiar with Master's formation. But we still have to be on guard against Uncle Xia. Don't forget about Ruibao. That child disappeared innocently, and everyone says that I killed him," said Ye Ling.

"Miss, why should you hide the fact that you killed someone? You even dared to kill the prince openly. What is a little brat?" Li Ye said.

"That's right," Qian Qing also agreed.

"It's okay. They have their own mouths. Let them say whatever they want. Let's get to work. I'm full. I'm going to get some water first. By the way, Wanqi and Bamei, there are two places here where you can't go. Do you know where they are?" Ye Ling asked.

"I know," Wanqi stood up immediately. "First, you can't go to the creek without an adult. You'll be washed away. Second, you can't go into the woods without an adult. There are terrifying beasts in there that will eat you up without leaving a single bone."

"Wanqi is so great, Eighth Sister, did you hear that? In order not to lose your life, you must not go to these two places without an adult. This yard is not very small, you can play as much as you want," said Ye Ling.

"Eighth sister, remember, I won't take sister Wanqi to any dangerous place," Eighth sister replied seriously.

"Very good. I'm going to the creek to get some water now. Do you two want to go and see?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Wanqi finished her porridge in two mouthfuls: "I'll go with my sister. Come on, Eighth Sister, let's go together."

Ye Ling carried two buckets of water and took her two children with her, skipping to the river not far away. The clear spring water in the mountains was extremely clean and without any pollution.

Qian Qing and Li Ye were left eating.

Li also picked up some food for Qian Qing: "Eat more, you have lost a lot of weight recently, you must have been traveling hard."

"Do you think... do you like this place?" Qian Qing suddenly asked seriously, "It's very likely that I'll stay here forever this time. Can you stay with me forever? If not, it's not too late to leave now."

Li Ye smiled and said, "Before I became the captain, I was a clerk. I worked there for seven years. I stayed in the cabinet all day, silently sorting this and calculating that. Those days were even more boring than this. There was no one to talk to.

Later, I became a team leader and was finally able to go on missions. Over the years, I suffered countless injuries, both major and minor, and twice I nearly lost my life. At that time, I wondered, what is the point of doing all this? If I die, there will be nothing left. During the holidays, there won't even be anyone to visit my grave.

Langya Pavilion is actually not as glamorous as it looks on the surface. Where there are people, there are open and secret struggles. This kind of atmosphere only emerged after Sect Leader Mo, Secretary Ji and Secretary Yue took office. The three of them worked together to rectify the people with ulterior motives in the pavilion.

There was a time when I really wanted to find a deserted place, to be alone, and live the rest of my life without caring about anything. But I was afraid of being lonely, so I wanted to apply to return to the clerical position, but Cai Qianshi wouldn't let me, saying that there was really no one candidate for the captain, so... I could only bite the bullet and do it, until last year, when the young lady fell from the sky and became the chief envoy of Renzi Hall. To be honest, none of us looked down on her, because Renzi Hall must have a chief envoy with high martial arts skills, so that when going on some dangerous missions, the survival rate of the brothers will be high.

With Miss's guidance, I was filled with confidence again, thinking I could live a few more years. Miss never looked down on any of her brothers. Then I met you. Suddenly, my world brightened. I had a goal to strive for. I thought... maybe we'll have children of our own in the future. Then I'll have to earn more money to support you.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. That day, when I heard that the young lady had left, I quickly ran to the Immortal Peak and found that you were gone too. I suddenly felt... very scared, and my mind was in a mess. I couldn't think about anything when I went back. Finally, I decided to leave with you. Now that the young lady is gone, the future of Renzitang is unknown. I don't want to waste any more time because my martial arts skills are not high. Being a captain is already my limit and I can't go any higher.

Leaving Langya Pavilion is a particularly difficult thing, so I didn't ask Qianshi to resign, but went directly to find Sect Master Mo. I was sure that he would be worried if the young lady left alone, so I offered to go with you, and the Sect Master would definitely agree. I am very glad that I made the right bet this time.

Now, the paradise I dreamed of has arrived, and you are with me. We are a big family, living here without any disputes with the world. Do you think I will leave?"

Qian Qing shook her head with tears in her eyes: "No, then are you healed from your previous injury?"

"Silly boy, it happened last March. It's been a year. How could it not be okay? Sigh, you don't know how miserable it is to be unable to take care of yourself and be carried around. I even thought about committing suicide, but Doctor Kou found me and scolded me, saying that he had finally saved me and that I should die outside and not die in front of him. That's how I managed to pull through."

"So, when the young lady said your internal energy was unstable, you haven't really recovered at all, right? Then why are you still running around on missions?"

"It's okay. Now we have plenty of time to rest and recuperate, right? Well, I have to quickly demolish the house, decorate our new house, and get married."

"You're dreaming. Who wants to marry you so quickly?" Qian Qing said with a smile while cleaning up the dishes.

"You've brought me home, so you have to give me a legitimate status, right?" Li Ye asked with a smile.

"Let's tear down your house." Qian Qing shyly picked up the empty bowl and walked into the open-air stove.

Li Ye picked up the remaining dishes and chopsticks, followed him in, and asked with a sly smile: "Why, was I wrong?"

"You're not right," Qian Qing said, refusing to admit it. "By the way, look here."

Following Qian Qing's finger, Li Ye saw signs of a leak on the straw roof of the open-air stove. "It's not serious. I'll go up and fix it first. It rains a lot this spring, and it would be bad if it leaks later."

"I tried it once before, but it didn't seem to work."

"It's okay. I'm not an expert in this area, just watch." Li Ye said as he walked out of the door and flew over to check it out.

Qianqing's face turned red, but she still smiled happily.

A moment later, Li also came down from the roof. "It's okay. I saw some lime and clay in the small warehouse. Mix them together, and then, since it hasn't rained in the past two days, cover the roof with it. It will stop leaking."

"Then hurry up! I'll go clean the room you'll stay in tonight." Qian Qing walked away with the basin of water.

Li also started to work, first dealing with the water leak and then demolishing the house.
