Qingzhu is not good at saying nice things, but he is practical and careful in doing things. Most importantly, he also knows some pharmacology and martial arts.

Although Nanny Qian had some selfish motives, she put her heart into choosing someone for the county lord.

If Qingzhu was not a good person, even if she saved herself again, Nanny Qian would not choose to cause trouble for the county lady and make the general's wife embarrassed.

Qingzhu himself knew his own temper and personality. He had grown up in this huge mansion with many setbacks and suffered a lot of losses.

It's not that I'm not annoyed, and I also want a chance to stand out, but I won't take shortcuts. I really can't say false flattery, and I disdain to do anything to flatter or curry favor.

But fortunately, I met Nanny Qian, who gave me an opportunity to improve myself. When I saved Nanny Qian, I did not do so for any reward. I just followed my heart and saved people. If it were someone else, I would have saved them if I could.

Nanny Qian told Qingzhu about the County Lord's Mansion, saying that there were few people and less trouble, and the County Lord was also a kind person. Qingzhu was also willing to go there to learn and explore a new world.

Qingzhu was a little absent-minded thinking about the past, and only came back to his senses when Tian Shuang called him softly with a smile.

Looking at Tian Shuang's smiling face, Qingzhu couldn't help but blush and lost in thought, but she felt happy in her heart.

There was no ridicule, dissatisfaction, or jokes on Tian Shuang's face, only sincerity and enthusiasm.

Including Uncle Tian's family, Brother Zhang and Aunt Zhang, as well as the master, they never looked down on or scolded me, and always looked at me with kindness.

Qingzhu thought that this should be his greatest opportunity.

She came to her senses and continued to study with Tian Shuang with a smile on her face.

With the beautiful weather and basking in the sun, it feels warm and peaceful.

It was not until evening that Xiao Wan came out. Seeing the two little girls talking softly while doing needlework, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"From now on, you two shouldn't sew after dark, and don't sew even with the lights on at night," Xiao Wan raised her hand to get them up. "You're still young, and sewing in dim light is bad for your eyes."

Seeing that the two little girls didn't care, Xiao Wan couldn't help but want to tease them.

"You don't want to have your eyes damaged at such a young age. You'll have to squint and look at people through the slits of your eyes. What if I walk past you two in the future and you can't even tell who I am?"

Ah, Tian Shuang and Qing Zhu didn’t know that doing needlework in a dim environment would seriously damage their eyesight. It would be so ugly to squint at people. Xiao Wan made the two of them look pale.

Lian Lian promised that it would never happen again.

But both of them felt very warm in their hearts. The county lady was so considerate to her servants, which was something they had never encountered before.

Both of them secretly made up their minds that they would never let the county lady down for her kindness to them, and that they would serve her well and not do anything to betray her.

Qingzhu was even more grateful to Nanny Qian for giving her such a good opportunity. When she saw her again, she would definitely make some medicinal food for her to nourish her body.

Xiao Wan had no idea what the two girls were thinking. Although she followed the local customs and knew that there were strict hierarchies of superiors and subordinates, she did not intend to challenge the rules of this era.

But after receiving modern education for more than 20 years, I still look down upon and cannot follow some of the rules that are humiliating to others.

It’s not easy for anyone, especially for women in this era. Life is even more difficult.

Especially for slaves, life was even more difficult, as the power of life and death was entirely in the hands of their masters.

They have no freedom at all, and many are sold by their parents, which makes their lives even more miserable.

Xiao Wan cannot save many people, but if they are loyal to the Lord, work diligently, and have no ulterior motives, Xiao Wan will not humiliate or torment them.

God gave her a second chance and she became a county lady appointed by the emperor himself. It was a gift and an opportunity, not a way for her to do whatever she wanted in this era.

Fortunately, whether it was the people sent by the Second Prince or the people sent by Fu, they were all very well-behaved and worked very responsibly and diligently.

Xiao Wan felt that she was already very lucky.

During dinner time, Xiao Wan mentioned the Banchengxian takeout plan to her parents, siblings, and family. Although the Xiao family didn't know much about it, they also felt that the takeout plan was very feasible.

After listening to this, Father Xiao said to Xiao Wan with a somewhat awkward expression, "My daughter, you still have to choose someone to run the takeaway counter. I don't want to interfere with the staffing, but I hope you will consider more reliable people from our clan and village."

"Life is not easy for everyone. Having a job can make life smoother. I grew up with you, and there are children who grew up under your care. I also hope that everyone in the village can live a good life."

Liu also agreed with a few words, but the couple still wanted to choose a partner based on character and would not interfere with other matters for their daughter.

I just hope my daughter will give the villagers a chance.
