Yang Ruoqing walked a while, stopped, and turned around.

Someone behind her immediately stopped and turned away, not daring to meet her eyes.

She retracted her gaze and walked forward, and the person behind her followed suit.

She stopped again and turned around. The man simply dodged and hid behind a nearby big tree.

She put down the small wooden bucket in her hand, crossed her arms and faced the big tree and shouted: "Stop hiding, I have seen you long ago!"

Luo Fengtang stood up from behind the big tree, raised his head and glanced at Yang Ruoqing, who was looking at him with a smile. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and strode to Yang Ruoqing.

He lowered his eyes, looked at Yang Ruoqing, and said: "I...I didn't mean to follow you..."

"Tangyaozi, thank you for protecting me just now." Yang Ruoqing smiled and said to Luo Fengtang: "What's wrong with you following me?"

When asked about serious matters, Luo Fengtang's embarrassed mood eased a little. He pursed his lips and said, "Fat Ya, have you ever practiced?"

"What?"

"You were very fierce just now. You knocked down the Chen brothers in just a few strokes. Your skills were very good!" Luo Fengtang smiled slightly.

Yang Ruoqing suddenly came over and realized what he was talking about. She smiled nonchalantly and waved her hand: "It's nothing!"

"You are so strong!" Luo Fengtang said again.

Yang Ruoqing waved her hand: "My grandma's ancestors were pig butchers and castrated pigs. Their strength and skills have been passed on to me!"

"Ah?" Luo Fengtang's eyes widened, as if he had been struck by lightning.

Fat girl, so tough!

Yang Ruoqing looked at the tired look of the big boy in front of her and grinned, "Do you have anything else to ask?"

If there was nothing else, she would rush home to put bait on the eel tube.

Luo Fengtang came back to his senses, thought about it, and said to Yang Ruoqing: "The Chen family brothers are not easy to mess with. If you suffered a loss today, there will definitely be another time. You'd better not come out alone in the future!"

Yang Ruoqing looked into his eyes seriously, and what she saw in his eyes was concern from the bottom of her heart.

With a smile on her lips, she nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I understand."

"Okay, I've finished what I have to say, you can go." He also smiled slightly.

Yang Ruoqing's eyes lit up slightly. The dark boy in front of her had a pretty good-looking smile. He had two shallow dimples on his face and his teeth were white and neat!

"Okay, then I'll go first." Yang Ruoqing said, leaning over to pick up the small wooden bucket, turned around and took two steps, suddenly thought of something, turned around again, and found that Luo Fengtang was still standing there, looking straight at him. On her back, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if she was thinking.

"By the way, Tang Yazi, the rabbit you sent is black, fat and strong. My parents and I are very rare. Thank you!"

After saying these words, she turned around, no longer lingering and went straight back to the village.

Behind him, Luo Fengtang looked at Yang Ruoqing's figure until she turned the stone arch bridge over the creek behind the village and completely disappeared. Then he picked up his bow and arrow, turned around and strode towards the mountains and forests!

When Yang Ruoqing returned home, Mrs. Sun was preparing lunch in the kitchen. After she went to see Yang Huazhong in the next room, she returned to her house with the eel tube and began to put earthworms on long bamboo sticks. He crawled in inch by inch, and then cleverly fixed the bamboo stick with the earthworm bait inside the eel tube.

Yang Ruoqing was very efficient at doing these things. When Mrs. Sun came over to call for dinner, she had already finished everything. She put the baited eel tubes neatly aside, washed her hands and closed the door before coming to the kitchen.

After several days of drying, the newly built stove is ready for use.

When Yang Ruoqing came over, Mrs. Sun had already put the prepared meals on the pot table, including a simple and rough farmhouse lunch, wild vegetable rice, cold wild grass, a bowl of snake soup left over from last night, and a bowl of thin egg soup.

Although it was a simple meal, the family enjoyed the meal very well. Just after dinner, the aunt Jin came over by touching the window and peeked in from the door with a face stained with ashes from the bottom of the pot.

His hair was a little disheveled, his eyes were a little cloudy, and he was grinning silly towards the room.

Yang Ruoqing had her back to the door of the house and was chatting and laughing with her parents. She suddenly noticed something was wrong and subconsciously turned her head to look. She was almost shocked by Jin's majestic appearance.

"Father, mother, aunt is here!"

Only then did Mrs. Sun and Yang Huazhong notice that they were coming. Mrs. Sun hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, stood up and walked to the door, greeting: "Sister-in-law, why are you here? What's the matter?"

"Third brother and sister, Yongxian is coming home soon at the end of the month. The quilt in his house is torn. He doesn't care if I sewed it. He says it's ugly. Please help me with it..."

At the door, Jin's soft voice of begging was heard.

"Sister-in-law, you go over first. I'll tidy up here and I'll help you right away!" Mrs. Sun agreed readily.

After sending Jin away, Sun walked back to the bed and said to Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, put the bowls and chopsticks in the pot first. Mom will go and help your aunt sew your cousin's quilt back and then clean it up."

"Mom, let's all separate and live separately. Even if the aunt can't do the things over there, isn't there still the fourth aunt? How did we find you?" Yang Ruoqing was a little unhappy.

Mrs. Sun smiled and consoled her: "It's nothing. Mending the quilt is not a big deal. It only takes a bowl of tea. Besides, this is a private relationship between me and your aunt, so we can help each other."

"This is not a big deal," Yang Ruoqing never forgot to correct Sun's point of view: "Private friendship, helping us, it's nothing. When we separated, our second cousin Yongjin also took the initiative to help us move things. I want to remind you.

Damn, I have to be more careful in the future, don’t let them squeeze our labor and effort in the name of helping in private! After all, we are separated now, and we are two different families from my grandparents."

"My Qing'er is really a little grown-up, what a shrewd person!" Mrs. Sun looked at her daughter's serious appearance and made her want to laugh a little.

He said to Yang Huazhong: "Look at your daughter, who does she look like?"

Yang Huazhong also smiled and looked at Yang Ruoqing. The man's eyes were full of doting: "This old-fashioned tone is really not like the two of us. But, Qing'er, my daughter's words are reasonable. What will happen to you in the future?

Don’t just agree to things, even small things don’t matter, but big things must be discussed with us, do you understand?”

Mrs. Sun sighed helplessly, "I see, you guys are ganging up and treating me like a child. Don't worry, I'm not stupid either. Besides, if you ask me to mend the quilt, that's just for fun.

My needlework is passable!"

"Hehe, since we've already said it, mother, hurry up and get there this time!" Yang Ruoqing urged.

"Hey, okay, I'll be back in a minute."

Mrs. Sun hurried to the upper room. Here, Yang Ruoqing poured a bowl of tea for Yang Huazhong, rolled up her sleeves and came to the kitchen.

Humming a little tune, he began to add water to the empty pot and heat it up.
