Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

Zhou Jicheng brought his soldiers and pulled a lot of wood back to Xu Miao's yard in Hanjia Village.

Most of the wood was whole logs, which the soldiers brought back from a distance with ropes tied to their horses.

After unloading all the wood, the soldiers borrowed axes from nearby villagers, split the whole logs, and stacked them on one side of the courtyard wall.

The soldiers were busy in the yard, and Xu Miao and Chun'er were not idle in the house either.

He boiled a large pot of water, poured it into clean bowls, and handed them to the soldiers in the yard.

"Brothers, come over and have some hot water."

"Thank you so much, brothers, for following us and being busy all night."

Chun'er was sweet-mouthed and kept calling the soldiers "big brother" while busy handing the hot water in her hand to several soldiers.

Xu Miao was also busy pouring a bowl of hot water for Zhou Jicheng in the room: "Acheng, drink a bowl of hot water quickly and sit down to rest."

"You must be exhausted after hauling all that wood. Thank you so much!"

Xu Miao was sincerely grateful to Zhou Jicheng. If he had not offered to take Xu Miao to the northern border, none of this would have happened.

After Zhou Jicheng walked around the room, he sat on a small stool next to the fire, picked up a bowl and drank some hot water. Then he said to Xu Miao, "Ah Miao, why are you being so polite? This is not a tiring job. It's just that it takes a little effort to pull the wood back."

"I think your house is really nice. I didn't expect that Village Chief Han is such a considerate person."

"I also knew to build a house in Hanjia Village and leave it to the master family."

Xu Miao also sat by the fire, warming himself by the fire and chatting with Zhou Jicheng, waiting for the soldiers to help chop the wood.

Xu Miao: "I heard from some older villagers that this house took a long time to build. Village Chief Han led the villagers to repair it. Although no one has lived in it for many years, the house has been well maintained."

"Mr. Han is a caring person who really knows how to be grateful."

"Ah Cheng, I want to ask you for something. I want to send a letter back to the capital. Do you think it's possible?"

Seeing Xu Miao wanted to send a letter to the capital, Zhou Jicheng nodded and agreed: "Of course, we have soldiers here who are dedicated to delivering military reports to the capital."

"Give them the letter, and it will be delivered to the capital soon."

"Who do you want to send a letter to?"

Seeing Zhou Jicheng's agreement, Xu Miao quickly said to him, "I want to send a letter to the wife of the Duke of Dingguo, and also send one to my wife to let her know she's safe."

Xu Miao had been out for nearly two months. Firstly, he wanted to report his safety to his mother, and most importantly, he wanted to write a letter to the wife of the Duke of Dingguo to thank him for giving her the village.

Although it is bitterly cold here, everything is fine, especially the way Village Chief Han behaves, which is really beyond Xu Miao's expectations.

I didn't expect that Hanjia Village would be like this now. Not only was Xu Miao not troubled when she arrived here, but a house was specially prepared for her to live in.

Especially the land within a radius of a hundred miles, this is a big matter, and Xu Miao must inform the Duke Dingguo's Mansion before he can feel at ease.

Zhou Jicheng waited for Xu Miao to finish speaking, then smiled and told Xu Miao, "You can live in Hanjia Village without worry. I don't think the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion would be interested in this little piece of land."

"They are very rich and have a large piece of land in the capital. Why would they care about your little thing?"

"It's right to write a letter. You can't be a person who throws the donkey away after it has done its work."

Xu Miao was speechless. Why did these words sound so harsh, as if she was the one who killed the donkey.

Zhou Jicheng and his soldiers worked until it was completely dark before they set out from Xu Miao's yard and returned to the barracks.

"A Miao, I'll leave Da Hei to accompany you."

"Don't think it's a bit playful at ordinary times, but it can definitely help you guard the house at night. With it here, you can sleep peacefully at night."

"Dealing with two or three adults is a piece of cake for Dahei."

"Our barracks are not far away. If we ride north on horseback, we can arrive in half an hour if we are fast."

Zhou Jicheng pointed to the north and carefully instructed Xu Miao.

Zhou Jicheng felt a little reluctant when thinking about leaving.

Zhou Jicheng had been living with Xu Miao for the past two months. When they separated, he was filled with reluctance.

Seeing Zhou Jicheng like this, Chun'er couldn't help but hold back her laughter.

Xu Miao also smiled at Zhou Jicheng who was riding on his horse and said, "Don't worry, it will be dawn if we don't leave now."

Xu Miao also knew that Zhou Jicheng was worried about her and Chun'er being alone in Hanjia Village, but sooner or later she would have to face life alone and could not always rely on Zhou Jicheng like a crutch.

When Zhou Jicheng and his group of soldiers rode away from Hanjia Village, the noise stopped abruptly and everything returned to calm.

Xu Miao and Chun'er simply washed up and lay down on the warm earthen kang, covered with a thick quilt.

It was Chun'er's first time living on a kang. Her face flushed with excitement. She hugged Xu Miao's arm and laughed foolishly.

"Second Miss, our family is so wonderful. I feel like I'm dreaming."

"This is my first time staying in a kang. I didn't expect it to be so hot. It was so hot that I even started sweating."

"And that's right, this Han Village is all yours now. Second Miss, tell me, am I like the housekeeper in a big landlord's house now? Apart from you, am I the most powerful one?"

When Xu Miao heard this, he laughed out loud and nodded.

Chun'er's dream is to be a housekeeper serving her master.

When she was still a little girl, she would break out in cold sweats every time she saw the nanny who managed the backyard in Xu's mansion.

He was worried that he had done something wrong and that the housekeeper would find out and give him a good beating.

At that time, Chun'er felt that the housekeeper in the backyard was more powerful than the master. When she grew up, she wanted to be a powerful housekeeper. She could scold or beat anyone she disliked.

Just over two months after following the Second Young Lady out of the capital, she had already become the housekeeper she had always dreamed of.

Chun'er said that her dream came true so suddenly that she was a little overwhelmed.

Chun'er chatted with Xu Miao for a while and then fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Miao also had full expectations for her future life, and accompanied by Chun'er's snoring, she welcomed her first good night's sleep in Hanjia Village in northern Xinjiang.

After Village Chief Han brought his four sons home, Aunt Han started to quarrel with him.

Aunt Han screamed at Village Chief Han at the top of her voice, "Grandpa, you just gave the whole village to that little woman. Why don't you think about your sons? Without Hanjia Village, what will happen to the children in the future?"

Village Chief Han sat cross-legged on the kang in the room where he and Aunt Han slept. He picked up his pipe from the kang, filled it with tobacco, lit it, and took two deep puffs before scolding Aunt Han, "Stupid woman, you know nothing!"

"I gave away Hanjia Village just for the sake of my four sons. Do you really want these children to be stuck in Hanjia Village as peasants their entire lives? Have you ever thought about giving them a chance to go out and see the world?"

Aunt Han was scolded by Village Chief Han so much that she was furious. She dreamed of letting her sons go out and make a living, but Village Chief Han always stopped her and kept saying wait a little longer.

When the eldest son got married and had children, Village Chief Han did not tell her how to let her sons go out and explore the world.

Before Aunt Han could say anything, Han Dahu, the third son of the Han family, muttered, "Going out and making a living requires money, and where does our family have any money? Dad used all the money to buy land, and otherwise he would have just eaten it all."

Village chief Han has four sons, namely Han Dajiang, Han Dahe, Han Dahu and Han Dahai.

Rivers, lakes, and seas, once you have grandchildren, then everything will be smooth sailing.
