Yangtao's thoughts

  Yang Tao thought hard for half a night, but still couldn't think of a way that would satisfy both sides.

  Isn't she really going to follow Lu Dahei every day? Not to mention that she has the leisure time to embroider flowers, but even if she had a lot of free time, she wouldn't have the desire to take risks.

  Anyway, life comes first, Yang Tao is very respectful of his own life.

  Let Pei Yifan follow? This is a stupid idea that can't be more stupid. Although Pei Yifan looks a bit weak and pale, he doesn't count as a handsome guy, but he still has a refined and scholarly air about him. What if that weirdo changes his appetite, wouldn't that be another innocent Pei Yifan being dragged in?

  Although Pei Yifan is a bit young, that demon may not be interested, but it's still good to prevent trouble before it happens.

  Not only did she not think of a solution, but Yang Tao also came up with another worry. In the mountains, she had only thought that Qi Bao might have taken an unusual interest in Lu Da Hei, but she had overlooked the fact that Qi Bao's martial arts skills were so advanced that he would have to castrate himself first. After all, Lu Da's family only has this one son, and for people of this era, especially those from rural areas, carrying on the family line is also a very important matter!

  Yang Tao felt more and more headache, but he really didn't have any good ideas. Moreover, looking at the big black road's admiration for "Kite Brother" was like a continuous river, wanting to stop it was impossible.

  Yang Tao finally understood a truth, relying on her little cleverness, wanting to save someone's life was very powerless, she could only choose to save the lives of one village. It seems that all she can do is shut her mouth and wait for changes.

  Yang Tao, who had resigned herself to her fate, decided to go to sleep. She didn't want to face the next day with a pale little face and two panda eyes, although so far, she still didn't know what she looked like.

  It was probably because she slept late and was really tired, so Yang Tao got up late on the second day. Since she came to this house, it was her first time getting up later than Pei Yifan. Of course, Pei Yifan is now slightly more diligent than before, which is why such an unprecedented situation occurred.

  Yang Tao couldn't help but feel grateful to Pei Yifan, he was really very considerate and didn't do the job she had to do every day, pinching him awake when he was still sleeping. By the time Yang Tao got up, Pei Yifan had already swept the yard and boiled water. After washing up, making breakfast, Grandma came back from outside.

  After breakfast, Yang Tao embroidered flowers as usual, while Pei Yifan went out after washing the dishes. Yang Tao guessed that Pei Yifan had gone to look for Lu Dahei and was certain that he would return empty-handed.

  "Yi Fan brother, didn't you go find Da Hei brother?" Yang Tao asked with feigned ignorance as he saw Pei Yi Fan walk into the yard.

  Except when she is in a moment of urgency, Yang Tao will occasionally reveal some stubborn nature, otherwise, Yang Tao is still very well-behaved and polite.

  "I went for a walk with Big Hei Ge for a while, and then Big Hei Ge went into the mountains to find Fengzhao Ge," Pei Yifan said in a low voice.

  When Pei Yifan was also called "Kite Brother" so intimately, Yang Tao felt a serious threat again. With beauty in front of her, no one can stop it, and some evil beauty will make even someone who has seen the world like her stunned, and for this group of children, it is even more lethal.

  It seems that she is the only one who has retained her sanity.

  But Yang Tao decided to observe for two days first, maybe Lu Dahei would be unable to withstand the temptation of that freak's evil and unorthodox martial arts, and wouldn't learn it himself. That demon wouldn't even give Lu Dahei the chance to choose freely, would he?

  Moreover, Wang Shi is going to collect the embroidery work tonight, she wants to finish this last bit carefully, and this afternoon she still needs to go wash clothes, and continue telling stories to Er Ya Tou and the others, there's no time to go be a kitchen maid for Lu Da Hei and Feng Zhuan.

  She could only secretly worry about Lu Dahei in her heart, anyone can prove that she is not afraid of death so timidly, nor is it great to consider the overall situation, but wholeheartedly busy.

  When Mrs. Lu came to pick up the embroidery, Yang Tao had just finished the last stitch, and although she also had some amateur foundation in embroidery, she was still nervous.

  "Hey, old lady, look at this embroidery I did. Is it okay?" Yang Tao would pay attention to his words when he wasn't in a hurry, but when he was anxious, he would forget and use the wrong pronouns, saying "I" instead of the more polite forms.

  "Go on, go on, it's quite good." Old Mrs. Lu indeed took a closer look and immediately smiled with joy. "Taozi's hands are really skilled!"

  "Hey, old lady, how much can you buy with three wen? How many wen is equivalent to one or two silver coins?" Yang Tao decided to ask about the ancient exchange rate, thinking carefully about her dream of getting rich, and whether it would be a futile hope if she only took in some embroidery pieces.

  "A few silver coins? That's a thousand wen, isn't it?" said Mrs. Lu.

  "What? So little?" Yang Tao couldn't help but blurt out. When would she ever have money then? She had many uses for it!

  "Silly child, we do embroidery for the Zhao family's shop, and even if we have two coins in our hands, it's for emergency use. We're far from town, and there's nowhere to spend money around here. The daily necessities at home are also brought back by Old Xia from town and sold to us. Who has the time to go to town for a day or two? Even if we did, we wouldn't be willing to part with that money." Road Big Sister said as she walked out the door.

  After seeing off Lu Danniang, Yang Tao supported her cheek with her hand and fell into deep thought again.

  It seems that if she only embroiders flowers, the original accumulation is a bit too slow. When can she achieve her great dreams in all aspects? In this era, there are no banks and no loans. Even if there were some money houses, they wouldn't lend money to a child with nothing.

  Yang Tao was lost in thought, when Lu Dahei walked in from outside, with Xiao Yu still holding his hand. Dabao was carrying Xiaosan, and Erbao, Shuixiang and the others were all following behind.

  Yang Tao thought that today was the day when Wang's family collected the embroidery, and Lu Dainiang, Liu Shu, and others would wait at home, so they let the children come by themselves. Others are not important now, it seems that this is Lu Dahei's first day, and he has returned safely.

  Yang Tao carefully observed Lu Dahei, and his face didn't show any signs of being bullied or suspicious ambiguity. It seemed that this weirdo actually understood some subtleties, maybe he really had a crush on Lu Dahei and was cultivating feelings first.

  Here is the translation:

  Ah! A flash of inspiration struck Yang Tao's mind. What a freak! Just look at his clothes, so light and airy, and he's still got nothing better to do than take on free apprentices, and ask around about brothels and whatnot - must be a rich guy. And yet he wants to take advantage of Lu Dahei, using the whole village as leverage?

  Yang Tao's face broke into a smile, her eyes staring straight at Lu Dahei. Anyway, this kid had already gone astray and wouldn't listen to good advice, so she might as well sell him for a good price or use him as collateral for a loan.

  She's suspected of human trafficking!
