The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband

Seeing how serious she was, Ji Xiuping straightened his expression as well. He thought that if she needed his help with anything, no matter how difficult it was, he would not refuse. He focused his mind, afraid of missing a single word she said.

Seeing his expression, Tong Qian figured it must be because of her earlier look that he felt a little anxious, so she explained, "I've talked to you about this before, and you even gave me some suggestions."

"I brought home the courtesan who plays the zither from the biggest teahouse here. I had previously said I wanted her to work with Yun at the teahouse, but she's not in a good mood right now, and she's burdened with too many worries and feels constrained in many ways."

"So I took it upon myself to send her to the village, thinking that I could give her a moment of peace. If she could have the kind of life she longed for, I thought her emotions would definitely calm down. Sure enough, after a few days, she did become much more settled, and she was no longer as cautious as before."

"In any case, she's staying there, so letting her do nothing is a kind of torture for her. So I had her teach the children to play the piano. I also plan to have Yun go to the village in a while to discuss these matters with her and let them try out the things you mentioned to me before."

Ji Xiuping listened and nodded. He had indeed learned about this matter before, so he wasn't particularly shocked when she told him about it. After all, Tong Qian always seemed to be thinking from other angles and trying her best to avoid things that might happen.

"I did know a little about this matter before, and what you're doing now is indeed reasonable. The idea of ​​having her teach those children in the village to do these things is indeed to influence her emotions, and in that case, it's possible that she will stop dwelling on those things from the past."

Tong Qian smiled slightly as she listened to his praise. In this matter, she was more happy than anything else because she had the support of Brother Xiuping. Thinking this, she continued, "But there are some things you don't know. I asked Master Qiu and Master Yuan to recommend a teacher who teaches martial arts."

"After hearing what they said, I think that the martial arts teacher does have his own unique abilities. He is currently teaching the three Li brothers martial arts at our home. After spending some time with them, he also feels that the three Li brothers have a lot of potential in these areas. So, for now, it seems that many things are proceeding as planned."

Seeing Ji Xiuping's still calm expression, she felt a little embarrassed, but still said, "The funniest thing is that as soon as the two of them arrived in the village, they were chosen by the villagers. Unexpectedly, they even came to our yard to propose marriage to them."

"At that time, I really didn't know how to handle those things. Whether I said something to Kui'er and Sichen or just rejected the people in the village, it was the most unfavorable situation for us. Just when I was struggling and didn't know how to choose, something I never thought would happen at that time."

"Si Chen and Kui'er both lost their tempers at that time. I could understand Si Chen's temper, but I didn't expect that Kui'er, who was usually gentle and didn't dare to say much, would speak up at this time. That's how the matter was suppressed. In the end, those people even followed Master Yuan to the fields to learn about farming."

"Moreover, after the following days, after Master Yuan taught them in these areas, they also felt that they had learned something very seriously. The atmosphere in the village has completely changed. The situation you were thinking about before, the feeling of gossip, has now completely disappeared."

When Ji Xiuping heard the news brought by Tong Qian, he was surprised that things he thought were impossible had changed so much in just a few days. He was just glad that he hadn't been there for Qian'er during those difficult times and didn't know how much she was suffering.

Seeing Ji Xiuping's expression, Tong Qian knew what he was thinking. Without waiting for him to say anything, she interrupted him directly, saying, "So I think now is the best time. I think all those messy things have been talked about until they've died down, and we should start doing what we've already prepared."

After being interrupted by her, Ji Xiuping forgot what he was about to say. However, seeing the exhaustion on her face as she spoke, which she could not hide no matter what, he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. He had never given Qian'er a good life. The only thing he had done was to bring her home back then and prevent her from being sold to some unknown place.

Now, in order to feel at ease here and do the things she's always longed for, she's considered all possible scenarios for herself. She's even unaware of how much she's already endured alone, all in just a few short days…

Thinking about this, I felt a lot of heartache. Even though my rational mind told me that I shouldn't make things difficult for Tong Qian in these matters, my emotions kept telling me that I didn't want to miss out on anything related to her in the future.

An idea suddenly flashed into her mind, and she said without hesitation, "Qian'er, let's go back to the village together these days. Even if I can't help you much on a daily basis, I don't want to worry about you without knowing anything when you encounter many problems."
