Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming

Old Master Yu and Prince Fu returned to Chenjia Village first, leaving Yu San and Xue Jingtang to continue interrogating those people.

"Uncle Yue, who do you think is behind this attack?"

Prince Fu really couldn't figure out who Qing Ning had offended.

Old Man Yu rode his horse side by side with him, turned his head to look at him, then looked into the distance, thinking for a long time.

"At first I thought it was that old fellow Wen Bai, but if the Wen family took action, I don't think they would spare Qing Ning's life. For a moment, I had no idea."

Prince Fu sighed deeply, "I must protect Qing Ning. I can't help my brother with other matters, but I can still protect someone."

He was the youngest of all the princes. Although there were many conflicts among his brothers, they were all kind to him.

Therefore, he seemed to have few worries, and his royal brother always protected him under his wings. It was rare for him to be such a pure and innocent person.

"Yes, Qing Ning is too eye-catching right now, and the people in the court will naturally assign her to Erlang. Although Your Majesty is in his prime and it is too early to appoint a crown prince, Erlang is already the heir. If he has such achievements to help him, how can he not be envied?"

"Needless to say, the Wen family, what about the other families? They are all eyeing us covetously."

At this point, Mr. Yu suddenly felt a surge of foul air, filling his entire chest.

"Uncle Yue, please don't be angry. The children are all good children. It's just that these noble families are too impatient. They are all underage and they are doing this."

Prince Fu comforted Old Man Yu, but he couldn't help feeling sad when he thought about the situation where brothers would kill each other in the future.

The two of them returned to Chenjia Village with thoughts in their minds.

The patrol and martial law at the village entrance were much stricter than before, and there were also many people deployed around the Chen family.

The children were no longer as casual as before, and even the adults were much more cautious.

Old Master Yu frowned as he watched, annoyed by these bastards.

When Yu Feihong saw them return, he immediately exchanged information with them about recent events.

"That's the situation at the moment. There's nothing unusual happening in the village."

"I'm glad you're alright. I was just worried they might harm innocent people. I'll have to be vigilant in the future. I can't let my guard down until the other party is clear."

"Yes, father."

"Lime, how are you these days?"

Mr. Yu is always worried about Qing Ning.

The little girl must have been very scared after this incident.

"This girl is really generous. I heard from Brother Qi that she cried once when we rescued her, but soon she was like nothing happened, eating and drinking as usual."

"He didn't make a fuss after returning home. Instead, he comforted us and told us not to worry. In the past few days since he came back, he has been going to school and working in the fields just like before."

Yu Feihong spoke of Qingning with a heart full of pity, saying that the child was so sensible.

"Oh, I'm glad you're okay. I was worried that this incident would leave a shadow in her heart."

"By the way, how are those two from my family doing?"

Prince Fu then remembered that his two children were also abducted that day.

"Jinniang is not feeling well. Uncle Chuan said she was frightened and will be fine after a while. Young Master Xing is fine, and he's not feeling unwell."

"It's hard for these two children. They have never suffered such injustice since they were young."

Mr. Yu sighed.

Prince Fu nodded in agreement, the two children felt wronged.

After dinner, Mr. Yu called the three people over and asked about what happened that day.

"They didn't talk much while I was with them. Occasionally they would say something I couldn't understand, and it sounded a bit like the Ruzhou accent."

Qing Ning carefully recalled everything that happened on the road.

"Ruzhou accent?"

"Yes."

Several people lowered their heads in thought, Ruzhou is thousands of miles away from here.

"Qing Ning, did you hear it wrong? How can you be sure it's a Ruzhou accent?"

Mr. Yu was indeed somewhat confused.

Qing Ning thought to herself, how can I tell them that she knows the dialects of different places? Although I can't speak them, I can recognize them.

But here, she was only six years old and had never traveled far.

"Oh, I used to go to town often and met many outsiders there, including people from Ruzhou. Because I was curious about the dialects of different places, I paid special attention to them."

After Qing Ning finished speaking, everyone fell silent again.

But at this moment, I was still thinking, why is Ruzhou here? Who is he?

"Also, the uncle who led the group said that an important person wanted to see me and asked them to bring me back safely. He also said that they have people in Coral County to pick me up."

Qing Ning told all the news he had heard, and it seemed that there was no useful information.

"We understand. You all should go back and rest."

Mr. Yu asked them to leave.

"Who sent them? What's their purpose?"

Old Master Yu really couldn’t figure it out, Ruzhou?

"That's not hard to guess. Qing Ning knows a lot. He wants her to go safely, so he must have some ulterior motive. What is that ulterior motive?"

Guo Ziyi looked at everyone and, without waiting for them to speak, continued, "Qing Ning is still young and naturally wouldn't have any dirty thoughts. They can only be here for Qing Ning's abilities."

"He can make money, has methods, and has ideas. He can farm, has skills, knows things we don't know, and can even raise children. These are not surprising if taken individually, but when put together in a child, it is truly remarkable."

"I heard that the Xu family's income more than doubled last year thanks to the recipes and toys Qing Ning gave them, and that was only half a year ago. And this year, they've got plowshares, cotton, sweet potatoes, and even county regulations. That means they've got money, profit, and fame."

"The Wen family wants to get rid of her simply because of the Second Prince. If she can't be used by them, then she certainly can't be used by us. But this person clearly wants Qing Ning, so I think he has something else in mind. If that's the case, we can relax a little."

After Guo Ziyi said this, everyone suddenly understood a lot.

"Ziyi is right. If he's not trying to kill me, then he's not on the same side with the Wen family, at least not for now."

The most important thing now is to let Yu San intensify the interrogation of the origin, and at the same time send people to look for clues, so as to understand the other party's identity and intentions as soon as possible so as to fight back.

Everyone discussed for another hour or so before going back to rest.

Everyone has been tense and worried these days, and because of the summer heat, they haven't slept well.

Qingning didn't care. She came back, washed up, and went to bed.

Ziqiao stayed by Qingning's bedside all the time, which made Qingning a little uncomfortable.

"Sister Ziqiao, please sleep with me."

"Girl, you sleep, I'll keep watch over you."

Ziqiao is a responsible secret guard and she knows her duties clearly.

Qing Ning couldn't sleep at all. There was someone standing in the room and she felt uncomfortable.

"Sister Ziqiao, don't worry, no one will be able to get in. There are guards inside and outside the village, and inside and outside my house. You can't rest well if you follow me around every day. How can that be possible?"

"It's okay girl, I'm fine."

No matter how Qingning tried to persuade him, Ziqiao just wouldn't move.

Finally, Qing Ning said, "Sister Ziqiao, I can't sleep with you here."

"Ah?" Ziqiao was stunned, then said, "Then I'll hide in the dark."

"Alas, Sister Ziqiao, I'm not used to being watched. Either you go back to your room and rest, or you sleep with me."

Qing Ning simply acted like a rogue. She really wasn't used to someone keeping watch over her while she slept.

I have to follow her and protect her during the day, and I don't get to rest at night. Isn't this pure exploitation?

"Then I'll sleep with you."

Ziqiao made a choice immediately. Of course, she had to stay with the little girl. She would just accompany her to sleep and stay alert at night.

Qingning grinned, moved closer to the bed, patted the space beside her, and motioned Ziqiao to go to bed.
