The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

The small courtyard of my home.

The iron lamp casing was covered in oil stains, and perhaps due to its age, it had been coated with a thin layer of copper-yellow. The faint flame dispelled the darkness, giving a sense of warmth and security.

The night wind grew stronger, occasionally whistling in through the cracks in the windows.

The oil paper on the windows hasn't been changed yet; I've been too busy lately to take care of it.

The oil paper needs to be replaced, and the roof tiles also need to be replaced. The snow these past few days hasn't been heavy; it's been falling on and off.

If the winter solstice passes and heavy snow closes the mountains, the snow will fall even heavier.

In addition, the firewood reserves are insufficient.

Murong Jiu and Di Qinglin sat inside the house, chatting idly while waiting for Jia Daoshi to return.

These past few days have been arguably the most relaxing and happiest they've had in the past two years.

But Jia Daoshi just said he was going out for a walk, but the women's sixth sense told them that things were not that simple.

Because Jia Daoshi did not have the habit of going out for a walk after meals.

"Sister Qinglin, where did he go?"

Murong Jiu was somewhat worried.

"Don't worry, he's now mastered the Dragon Elephant Divine Skill, ordinary martial arts masters can't hurt him." Di Qinglin hesitated for a moment, "I guess he might have gone to find Hong Fa."

Based on Di Qinglin's previous habits, she would also seek out Hong Fa and kill him outright.

As the daughter of a general, she had previously read some military books in her father's study at home and knew a little about strategy.

A person like Hong Fa will definitely call for help when he suffers a loss!

Regardless of whether the Hundred Flowers Gang will find out, it would be best to kill him beforehand, without anyone noticing!

As for what happens in the future, we'll talk about that later!

Because what Jia Daoxian needs most right now is time!

As long as we master the Dragon Elephant Divine Skill, what are the Hundred Flowers Gang compared to us!

"Did they go to find Hong Fa?" Murong Jiu's thoughts differed from Di Qinglin's.

"Sister Qinglin, Hong Fa has the Hundred Flowers Gang behind him, are you sure you'll be alright?"

"Don't worry. He can definitely handle Hong Fa. As for the Hundred Flowers Gang, even if we don't kill Hong Fa, he will still bring his people to cause trouble for us! As long as we kill Hong Fa, we can at least get through this winter. Once the heavy snow closes the mountains, the Hundred Flowers Gang won't be able to enter. If they really want to investigate, they'll have to wait until next spring at the earliest, right?" Di Qinglin said.

Both sisters were experienced people who had seen a lot in life, and after chatting for a while, they felt more at ease.

"Sister Qinglin, where are Sister Weishuang and Sister Ruyu now?" Murong Jiu asked again.

“Ah Jiu, you don’t need to worry about that at all. Sister Wei Shuang and Sister Ru Yu are even more capable than me. Back then, that guy Jia Daoshi wanted to sell them out, but they took the opportunity to escape so that they could find our old subordinates in Daqing Kingdom and pave the way for the princess to restore the country,” Di Qinglin said with a smile.

"Huh?" Murong Jiu was clearly unaware of this additional reason. "This...this is far too risky!"

“Where aren’t we taking risks? With Sister Weishuang and Sister Ruyu’s abilities, they can act without the two of us around, which will only make them safer,” Di Qinglin sighed.

Mu Weishuang is the captain of the guards in the Daqing Imperial Palace. Her martial arts skills are even better than Di Qinglin's, making her the top expert in the palace.

Yan Ruyu is the daughter of the High Priest of the Daqing Kingdom. She possesses profound knowledge of esoteric arts and is familiar with Qimen Dunjia.

It was thanks to Mu Weishuang and Yan Ruyu that they were able to safely escape the Longwu Dynasty's pursuit!

After arriving here, they concealed their abilities in order not to reveal their identities.

But staying here any longer was clearly not a solution, so Mu Weishuang and Yan Ruyu made an excuse and left Jiajia Village!

"kindness!"

After hearing Di Qinglin's words of comfort, Murong Jiu felt much more at ease.

"Alright, let's stop thinking nonsense. We still have some cloth; let's make him some more clothes."

Di Qinglin laughed and said, "Ajiu, can you teach me how to thread this needle?"

"Hehe, Sister Qinglin, you're becoming more and more feminine! Last night you and your husband..."

"Ah Jiu! How dare you make fun of me! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget..."

Upon hearing Murong Jiu mention what happened last night, Di Qinglin couldn't hold back anymore. His face turned as red as fire, and he reached out to tickle Murong Jiu's armpits!

"Hehe... But I saw him the other day, he's really strong, no wonder Sister Qinglin couldn't keep up for a while..."

"You still said that!"

Murong Jiu and Di Qinglin were making a ruckus in bed.

When Jia Daoshi returned home and saw this heartwarming scene, he felt that everything he had done was worthwhile!

Seeing Jia Daoshi return home, Di Qinglin's face turned even redder!

"My lord, Sister Qinglin, I'm going to the kitchen to boil some water." Murong Jiu chuckled and got up to walk towards the kitchen.

At this moment, during the fight with Murong Jiu, Di Qinglin's black veil had fallen off, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes were half-open, giving him a unique allure!

Looks like tonight will be another sleepless night...

……

The next day, just as dawn broke, Jia Daoshi found Jia Hu, and the two of them took three bamboo baskets and went to the marshland behind the mountain to catch fish.

Jia Quan already knew that Jia Daoshi could catch fish and sell them for money, so he didn't stop him; instead, he came to help.

Jia Daoshi couldn't let his uncle and grandfather work for nothing, so he offered each of them a reward of one hundred coins a day!

Good heavens, that's 100 coins a day, so 200 coins for two people!

Jia An's monthly salary is only fifty coins!

This delighted Jia Quan and Tie Lan!

Jia Daoshi and his two companions went to the marsh to catch fish, while Tie Lan led Di Qinglin and the others to kill the fish, clean their internal organs, and stuff perilla grass into their bellies!

Working together, they quickly filled the containers with about two hundred fish.

This time, Jia Daoshi only caught small fish; he rejected all fish weighing more than two pounds.

Fish like this are quick to grill and sell well.

After loading the fish, Jia Hu pulled his family's wooden cart and followed Jia Daoshi to the county town.

As soon as Jia Daoshi arrived at his stall, before he could even set it up, a large crowd gathered around him.

The last time Jia Daoshi brought fish cakes, they sold out very quickly, leaving many people without getting to eat them.

Those who ate it felt an unforgettable aftertaste, and wanted to eat it again and again!

Especially for those well-off families, they were practically waiting for a butler to bring back large food boxes, carrying ten or twenty pieces at a time!

The fish are small this time, so the price is cheaper. One grilled fish is reduced to ten coins, and ten fish are one hundred coins!

But the rich are still rich!

Thanks to the contributions of these wealthy families, even though we arrived a little late today, the products still sold out quickly!

After a busy morning, Jia Daoshi and his three companions were starving.

Especially Jia Hu, who could only look but not eat all morning, was really craving it!

By noon, we were starving!

"Brother Daoshi! I want to eat! I want to eat!"

Jia Hu had already started shouting.
