The Bully General's Spiritual Husband

At the village entrance, the wooden fixed pulleys were already installed before Tian Xiaoqiang fainted.

Yin Baicai was invited to Li Zhe's house for breakfast.

Li Mo was unusually clingy to Yin Baicai today, following her like a little tail wherever she went.

Yin Baicai was going to buy vegetables from Grandma Wu and Aunt Zhang's houses, and Li Mo was going to go with her.

Left with no other choice, Yin Baicai had to take him with her.

After watching the two leave, Li Zhe cleaned up the dishes at home before carrying his bow and arrows up the mountain.

He hadn't been to town for many days, so he decided to go up the mountain to hunt some game to sell in town tomorrow. He also wanted to ask Lin Xing and the others how their investigation was going.

Qingshui Town

Lin Xing and Jiang Su hid in the crowd and waited until the Huang family steward came out of the restaurant.

Lin Xing nodded to the two of them: "Alright, proceed according to plan."

Jiang Su and his companion had already disguised themselves and took the opportunity to approach Huang Nian, the steward of the Huang family, and then snatched the money bag from his pocket.

Just run away!

Huang Nian shouted, "Help! Thief!"

Lin Xing made a special trip out and quickly chased after Jiang Su and the others, and soon retrieved the money bag that Huang Nian had been robbed.

He handed the money bag to Huang Nian, who had been chasing after him for a while and was panting: "Uncle, here's your money bag. Check if the money is correct."

Huang Nian took the money bag and eagerly opened it to check it carefully: "Yes, thank you, young man."

Lin Xing looked anxious: "Oh no, if we go too late now, there might be no work left."

Upon hearing this, Huang Nian asked, "Young man, what's wrong with your anxious face?"

"It's okay, it's just that it's too late to carry the big bags now, the leader probably won't want me anymore."

Huang Nian was hoping someone would help him retrieve his money bag, but he was currently out of work. He remembered seeing that Lin Xing's kung fu was quite good, and the guards who had been watching over him had just left a couple of days ago.

Isn't this perfect opportunity? We can send this young man back to fill in!

Huang Nian: "Young brother, I wonder if you would be willing to come back with me and be a guard. I just saw that you were quite skilled when you chased those two thieves."

Lin Xing asked excitedly, "Uncle, you really want me? But I've never done this kind of work before. All I know how to do is carry sacks."

"You've lost your job, haven't you? Then come back with me. It's much better than carrying heavy loads, and you'll get a tael of silver a month!"

Seeing that Huang Nian had taken the bait, Lin Xing pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you, Uncle. I grew up relying on the kindness of others. I finally met a master, but he died later. You're willing to give me a job. You're like my second parents!"

Huang Nian: "Alright, come with me. I still need to go back and deliver my husband's favorite eight-treasure duck and braised pork knuckle!"

Lin Xing followed behind Huang Nian with a happy expression, "Uncle, please carry it for me."

"Good, you're quite clever."

In this way, Lin Xing successfully infiltrated the Huang residence.

Jiang Su and He Qi, hiding in the shadows, witnessed all of this.

He Qi: "You know what, Lin Xing is quite good at pretending. He managed to fool the Huang family's steward just like that."

Jiang Su: "Don't let your guard down. Let's quickly arrange Lin Xing's identity. Since Huang Nian can become the steward of a prefecture, he's probably not that simple."

"it is good."

Just as Jiang Su had predicted, after Lin Xing entered the Huang residence, Huang Nian sent people to secretly investigate Lin Xing's identity.

Zhou Da: "Uncle Nian is right, what that kid said is true, I've checked it out."

Huang Nian waved his hand: "Okay, go and make the arrangements. Have him guard the door."

Yin Baicai had just bought the vegetables when he noticed the door was locked. He carried the vegetables and asked Li Mo to take the key out of his pocket.

This was the key that Li Zhe gave him when he first came to cook for Li Mo. Later, when he wanted to return it to him, Li the bully said that he should keep it for now.

"Li Xiaomo, please open the door quickly so I can bring my things inside."

"Momo opened it."

Yin Baicai praised verbally: "Great job!"

Yin Baicai is now preparing another day's meals, and she's going to make spicy chicken.

Yin Baicai chopped the chicken that Li Zhe had killed before leaving home into pieces. Knowing that Li Mo couldn't eat spicy food, she specially made him a non-spicy version.

During lunch, Ge Tian and the others said to Yin Baicai, "Brother Cai, you've delayed a lot of the project today, so you'll only get half a day's pay."

"That won't do, Brother Ge, just settle it for one day. Besides, the village chief only called everyone together because of special circumstances!"

Suddenly, Yin Baicai suggested, "Let's settle our wages tomorrow; it's been half a month already. From now on, we'll settle them every two weeks. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, the men's faces lit up with joy. They were always paid at the very end of the day, and sometimes, their employers would try to deduct their wages.

This is the first time I've encountered a family like Cai Ge'er's.

"Alright, Brother Cai, let's do it your way!"

"It's settled then. Everyone, let's eat. This is a wild pheasant that Li Zhe hunted in the mountains. It tastes great."

Yin Baicai even specially saved a lot of food for Li Zhe, so that he could heat it up and eat it when he came back.

Yin Baicai looked at the sleeping Li Mo, fanned him while dozing off herself.

When she got sleepy, she lay down and fell asleep next to Li Mo's bed.

When I woke up, the sun had already set.

Seeing that Li Zhe had not returned, Yin Baicai went to wake up Li Mo on the bed, but when she looked up, she could not see Li Mo at all.

Li Mo pushed open the door and came in: "Mother, you're awake."

"Li Xiaomo, when did you wake up? Why didn't you wake me up?!"

Li Mo smiled and said, "Mother is sleeping soundly, I won't wake her."

Yin Baicai stood up, stretched, and patted Li Mo's head: "Little Mo, are you hungry?"

Li Mo nodded shyly.

Yin Baicai walked out of the room, preparing to start a fire and cook, when she happened to see Li Zhe push open the door and enter.

The sunset cast a tall and imposing shadow on Li Zhe's figure, and Li Zhe's bright eyes met Yin Baicai's gaze.

Yin Baicai was stunned for a moment, then patted her face and thought to herself: Why am I staring at Li Zhe in a daze?

Li Mo, who was standing next to Yin Baicai, spotted the deer that Li Zhe was carrying. "Mother, look!"

When Yin Baicai came to her senses, Li Zhe had already carried the deer into the yard.

Yin Baicai pulled Li Mo closer, "My God! It's a sika deer! Li the bully, how did you hunt it? Damn, that's amazing! I've only ever seen these things in zoos."

Yin Baicai squatted down and touched the antlers of the sika deer: "It's true, I didn't just see it through the glass, I really touched the sika deer."

Li Mo asked curiously, "What is a zoo?"

Suddenly asked, Yin Baicai panicked, wondering why she had suddenly brought up modern matters.

Quickly diverting Li Mo's attention: "Hey! Little Mo, aren't you hungry? Let's go cook some food!"

Yin Baicai panicked and looked up at Li Zhe.

Seeing that Li Zhe didn't seem to suspect anything, she finally felt relieved.

Li Mo's stomach rumbled with hunger, and Yin Baicai quickly pulled Li Mo away, saying, "I'm sorry to have made you hungry for so long. I'll go make dinner right away."

As Li Zhe watched Yin Baicai's departing figure, he thought to himself: This young man has so many strange things about him! But is he really still the same Cai-ge'er from before?
