Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

The results of the national air, land, and sea competitions were in, and the top fifty were posted on the screen wall of the Military University. The army also informed the children that they were tied for first place and would be giving speeches at the army's New Year's Eve party. Huang Bao said, "Hey, leader, we need to keep a low profile and not attend. If you want to know how we learned and understood, I can record it and send it to you!" [He's still willing to make an animated video.] The leader thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll record your learning progress." "Okay. I'll make sure to do it!" The army gave the three children certificates. The material rewards weren't much, just a few books, pens, and other school supplies. The key was the certificate. I heard it came with a bonus of 50 points on the next exam! They could also choose their own school, all free of charge. Huang Bao and the other children had no idea what was going on, and not wanting to dampen the leader's good intentions, they said nothing. The future was too far away. The children had two days off. After that, they would take their winter exams.

Winter vacation exams arrived, and Huangbao and his friends took theirs first, with the whole family cheering them on. Except for Li Qin and Chai Donghua, who were at work, everyone else was home. In the morning, the whole family walked the three children to school. Huangbao was beaming; he loved his family's company. Only after the three children were through the gate and the family could no longer see anyone outside did they head home.

Guoguo, Xiahua, and Li Ru all helped with the cooking. They also slaughtered a few sheep, a cow, and five pigs. In the yard, they built a fire to stew the meat and roast the sheep. Four guards and the Demon Lord worked together! They'd bought charcoal here, saving them the trouble.

Guoguo started braising bacon, pig heads, pig trotters, and pig livers. Xiahua, Liru, Shu, and Hua were stewing meat—braised beef with soy sauce—and making all sorts of dishes, like braised pork elbows and braised pork. Guoguo remembered they had fish, so she asked Xiao Shunzi to catch them quickly. Guoguo pulled out several baskets of large fish, and the men were killing them! It was like Chinese New Year!

The fragrance spread far away! The tigers were drooling at the gate! They couldn't lie still anymore and paced back and forth. Until they came to Guoguo, Guoguo fished out two pig heads and threw them to the two tigers. The tigers caught them and ran away. They rushed so hard that they almost hit the wall. Guoguo laughed at them! Several guards also laughed, "It's so funny!"

The kids were skating in the yard! They were so fast! A few elderly people, taking advantage of the nice weather, sat on wicker chairs in front of the building, watching the kids play.

Because their brother had an exam, these kids all had a day off!

At noon, Ye Heng came back and saw this scene.

The three children put down their things and washed their hands. Guoguo asked Chaihu and the others to bring the food. They were ready to eat.

Fragrant rice, paired with braised pork, boiled fish, braised pork elbow, and roasted lamb. Lotus root slices, scrambled eggs and other vegetarian dishes were also added. The guards and several girls sat at one table, while the Chai family had a large round table with a turntable, so everyone could sit around and eat together. Ye Heng took out two bottles of wine, one bottle for each table of the guards and one for his own table. The men and the old man drank a glass of wine. Li Jingwen said, "This wine is still the best, the taste is just good." Ye Heng: "Haha, old master knows how to say it." Demon Lord: "Old master, this wine can't be bought even if you have money!" Guoguo laughed, "Drink it. It's okay as long as we can buy it at home." This wine is indeed expensive, tens of thousands of yuan per bottle. You can't even buy it for this much! This was bought by someone that Ye Heng and Huang Bao asked!

Lihua Baiguo brought back many jars of wine from ancient times, and they were all ready to drink. Lihua Bai was delicious too! They also had their own homemade wine, which was best enjoyed by women. Xiahua also wanted a sip of wine and said, "Guoguo, bring out our homemade wine so we women can have a couple of drinks too!" "Okay. I'll get it right away." A moment later, two people came in carrying a jar and set it by the door. Guoguo scooped it out with a spoon, giving each of them a large bowl.

Huangbao had exams for the past few afternoons, so they weren't allowed to drink. The meal took over an hour. Huangbao and the other two ate early and went to sleep in their space. Guoguo called when the time came.

Ye Heng drove the car to the front of the building and waited!

At 2:20, Guoguo woke the children up, had tea, and washed up. Yeheng drove them to school. "There's enough time. Don't worry!" Huangbao said, "I know, Dad. You should go home." Yeheng said, "Okay." Xiaochen said, "Brother-in-law, let's go home." "Okay."

The soldiers standing guard looked at Ye Heng. What a handsome man! His demeanor was unmatched! Even men were envious and jealous!

Ye Heng drove home.

Huang Bao had two days of exams. Ye Heng had been picking him up and dropping him off for two days, while Mo Zun drove over a dozen children to school. The next day, the younger ones would also have their exams! Guo Guo, Min Min, Yang Yang, Xia Hua, Wang Xiao Min, and the other women packed up and moved to the city to take care of the younger ones while they took their exams.

Huang Bao and the others finished their exams. Ye Heng took the three children and the elders, and moved everyone to the city to live. The city was bustling with activity. Only four guards were left here to look after the house! They also had the task of delivering food to the troops!

The whole family was so excited to be back in the city center! Everyone started cleaning up together. Guoguo suggested, "Let's celebrate the New Year here. It's more lively here!" Minmin: "Okay, I like the liveliness!" Yangyang: "Haha, isn't it just because there are so many people?" Huangbao said, "Second sister, it's fun to play when there are so many people! The atmosphere is there." Yangyang: "Okay, I'll take you guys out. And take the three little ones with me." Little Chai Jing clapped her hands and shouted, "Okay, okay. Let's go play, let's play. Little sister, let's go play." It seems that playing is something that doesn't need to be taught. Playing is natural. Yang Yang looked at Chai Jing with a smile. "Okay, I'll take you with me, but you have to walk by yourself. No need to be carried!" "Okay, I'll remember to walk!" "Walk by yourself." Chai Jing said, "Walk by yourself!" Chai En's twins each hugged Yang Yang's leg and looked up at Yang Yang. "Let's go out and play!" Yang Yang looked down at them and said, "Okay, you have to walk by yourselves. I'll take you." Chai Pengpeng patted his chest. "Yes, walk by yourselves." Yang Yang praised him. "Pengpeng, you're right. Walk by yourselves." Yang Yang said loudly, "Whoever's going out to play, go back to the room, change clothes, and grab your own small bag. We're leaving in half an hour!" "Okay!" the three little ones shouted. The Demon Lord looked at him and went back to the room to change clothes as well. He was dressed casually, carrying a large backpack filled with a water bottle and a few bags of bread. He grabbed his car keys and went out.

Huangbao, Xiaochen, and Xiaotian each had a backpack in an entertainment style. As soon as they reached the first floor, Huangbao and the others saw three little milk bags walking down. Haha, they were all in the style of little milk bags, each carrying a little yellow duck, haha.

The people in the living room watched the little ones line up and walk down the hallway, all smiling and radiant. It was a feast for the eyes! Chai Shishi said, "Let's go! Let's go play!" Her little voice melted everyone's heart! Little Milk Boy was the family's happy pill! The adults gathered around the children.

Demon Lord Yang Yang left with the six children. Wang Xiaomin, no longer needed to look after the children, told her family to go back to the old house and not to cook lunch for her. Old Mrs. Li said, "Well, go ahead. You'll have food even if you come back late. It's okay." Wang Xiaomin sighed. She put on her bag, grabbed her house keys, and left.

Minmin and Guoguo went to Guoguo's room. Guoguo took out a jewelry box and gave it to Minmin, saying, "You don't like wearing these, so I bought them for you. Wear them. Yangyang doesn't like these either." Minmin took it and looked at it. "They look good. Thank you, Mom!" Minmin took it out and put it on her hands and neck. She looked in the mirror, smiled, and said, "They look good. I'll look better if I'm thinner!" "Just run with everyone in the morning and exercise. You'll lose weight slowly! It's okay!" "Yeah. I know. Haha, I just can't get up." "How about, Mom will wake you up tomorrow morning!" "Haha, forget it, I'll get up by myself!"

Guoguo sat down and said, "When should we go to the south and buy good fabrics for our family to make clothes? The south has good silk!" "Next year. Let's go in spring, when it's neither too cold nor too hot!" "Well, we'll talk about it then. I'll check it out online."

Mother and daughter exchanged these words over tea. This is life. Sit quietly and reflect on your mistakes; avoid idle chatter about others. Just live your life to the fullest. It seems like you're in the midst of the mundane world, yet you seem to be detached from it all. It's like picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely gazing at the southern mountains!
