Chapter 215
215 Returning to Hu Family Village For The Harvest
Qin Huai and Little Ah Yu chatted with each other for a while before Chi Jia returned.
“Send Ah Yu back.”
Chi Jia, who had just returned and was about to take a breather, had no choice but to stand up again. “Yes.”
When Little Ah Yu returned to the Wang Family, Qin Huai gathered everyone.
For a moment, more than 10 people stood in the originally empty courtyard.
Qin Huai’s voice was very cold. “How much did you see?”
Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, no one daring to respond.
They all knew that the Little Master was asking about the matter of Ah Yu taking out the food just now.
They’d seen everything.
However, those who could be on duty in the courtyard were not the Madam’s people. They were all loyal to him.
Even so, Qin Huai could not completely trust them.
He took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket. When everyone saw the porcelain bottle, their expressions changed.
The Life Vanishing Pill would erase a person’s memories of the past 24 hours.
Qin Huai placed the porcelain bottle on the stone table. Everyone took a step forward silently and took out a pill in turn. Without hesitation, they stuffed it into their mouths and swallowed it.
The secrets of Miss Ah Yu were indeed too shocking. They could not guarantee that they would not reveal the secret under any circumstances. After all, there were too many methods in this world to extract information. Some of those methods were so painful that it caused one to wish they were dead. Some could directly compel a person to speak the truth.
To truly keep a secret, other than being dead, there was only the choice of ensuring that the memory did not exist to begin with.
The effects of the pill took effect very quickly. In less than 15 minutes, everyone fell to the ground one after another.
When they woke up again, they looked a little dazed.
However, they quickly realized that they should have taken the Life Vanishing Pill.
Seeing Qin Huai sitting in front of the stone table, Chi Ding braced himself and asked under the gazes of the others, “Young Master, do you have any instructions for us?”
Qin Huai said, “I’ve already handed the jade token to Ah Yu. In the future, you’ll listen to her orders.”
Chi Ding was shocked. The Young Master had actually handed the token over to Ah Yu.
They were secret guards and did not have much to do usually, but they were also indispensable.
“Young Master, this-”
Qin Huai glanced over. He was clearly expressionless, but it made Chi Ding’s scalp tingle and he did not dare to say another word.
That gaze really resembled Madam’s.
It carried an inexplicable killing intent.
“Guard her well. If she suffers any losses, bring your own head to me.”
Everyone complied.
When Chi Jia returned, Qin Huai had already arranged things here. He let him pack his luggage that day and they left Nanhe Town overnight.
That night, Little Ah Yu cried again. When the Wang Family found out that it was because Qin Huai was leaving, they were a little surprised. That child was usually silent, but he actually left immediately after bidding farewell.
The Wang Family had just found Wang Aibao and the family was still somewhat chaotic. They did not go to look for Qin Huai that night.
Only on the second day, when Liu Shi brought a box of food to the Qin Family, did she realize that only the servants were left.
The few boys who followed her over were shocked as well.
“Why did Mr. Chi leave just like that? He didn’t even say goodbye!” Wang Wulang shouted. “Then what will happen to our martial arts training in the future?!”
When Chi Ding, who was sweeping the courtyard, heard this, he slowly walked over and said indifferently, “What’s the big deal? If he’s not here, someone else can teach in his place too.”
Wang Wulang looked at him in surprise. “Who?”
Mr. Chi was the strongest person he had ever seen.
For some reason, Chi Ding read this sentence from Wang Wulang’s eyes.
The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a very disdainful gaze. “You’re just too inexperienced and don’t know much about the world outside. With Chi Jia’s level, he’s only enough to guard the door for us.”
This time, not only Wang Wulang, but everyone else looked incredulous.
Even Liu Shi, who did not know what to do, looked at him suspiciously.
With that, Chi Ding kicked Chi She who was guarding the door. “You, perform for them.”
Chi She: “…” Can you not implicate me when you’re acting cool?
Little Ah Yu, who had been pulled over, looked up at Chi She listlessly.
“Don’t make things difficult for Uncle She.” Little Ah Yu was a little helpless.
Chi She shook his clothes and snatched the broom from Chi Ding’s hand. Under everyone’s gaze, he kicked the broom head away with his right foot.
With a light sweep, he stabbed left and right with the stick. With a tap of his right toe, he flew up to the roof and spun the broom around the house.
The children below all looked up and exclaimed.
Even Little Ah Yu had already forgotten about her temporary sorrow.
After the performance, Chi She threw the broomstick to the ground. The broomstick stabbed into the ground, and its tail trembled.
The children were all stunned by this move.
Little Ah Yu said, “Uncle She is so powerful!”
“It’s just ordinary. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to come and guard the door.” Chi She clapped his hands and stuffed them into his sleeves. He sat on the small stool beside the threshold and put on that wretched and mysterious appearance again.
The children worshiped him.
Chi Ding, who originally only wanted Chi She to perform a few simple moves: “???”
Brother, aren’t you overdoing it?!
“Mr. She, please accept my bow!” Wang Wulang knelt in front of Chi She without thinking.
He did not know if this level of martial arts was powerful or not. He only knew that Chi Jia usually did not teach such powerful martial arts.
He really wanted to learn.
Chi She waved its hand. “My level is not good enough. It’s better to let our brooms-man teach you. He’s the best in our village. Otherwise, he won’t be able to get the sweeping job.”
The children’s gazes turned to Chi Ding like sunflowers chasing the sun.
Including Little Ah Yu, her eyes were shining.
Chi Ding: “???”
Hence, he could only perform a more difficult show with tears in his eyes.
The hidden secret guards watched with relish.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. They were no better than those street performers.
For the street performers, at least there were copper coins to be earned.
Hence, Chi Ding officially took over Chi Jia’s “disciples” and began to teach them martial arts.
Wang Aibao stayed in Nanhe Town for two days and got to know the surrounding neighbors a little before Old Madam Wang decided to bring her back to Hu Family Village.
It just so happened that it was a busy farming season now, and the various crops in the fields were about to welcome a harvest.
The people of Hu Family Village were excited every day. The food in the fields was growing day by day. How could they not be excited when they saw the healthy plants and the plump grains?
“Our Hu Family Village is really blessed by the heavens. Look at this rice grain. I’m afraid it’s a few times more abundant than in the past!”
“That’s right. Look at these soybeans. They’re plump and round. The color is good, and they smell fragrant. Look at how big they are. A single stalk is probably around 10 catties in weight!”
Hearing everyone’s excited voices, Village Chief Hu thought of the soybeans that the Wang Family had taken out back then.
The villagers only thought that the grain planted by the Wang Family was very good. Coupled with the fact that the weather was good and the temperature was nice, it was as if the heavens had given them food to eat.
Only Village Chief Hu knew that the Wang Family had probably contributed a lot.
