After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

That day, Qin Yao left Kyoto City and did not stop.

He galloped on the snow and arrived in Wangcheng on the eve of New Year's Eve.

Spend the New Year with his brother and Dalang.

He also paid tribute to his deceased parents and family.

After not seeing each other for a year, Dalang has become much more mature and stable.

In the past year with Qin Feng, the young man has gained a lot of knowledge.

He learned about the changes in Kyoto City from his mother and wanted to go back to see it.

After the New Year, the mother and son separated temporarily.

Dalang took a horse team from his uncle and tried to lead the team to trade independently.

Qin Yao stayed in Wangcheng for a month and helped his brother to clean up all the local opponents.

Just after the first month of the year, one person and one horse continued to go north.

When Dalang finally succeeded in bringing his caravan back to the capital after stumbling all the way.

Qin Yao had already started the happy days of training eagles and racing horses with the Barbarian Princess Hu Hetixiang and the Barbarian King Da Yanshi Huiyang.

The spies of the Imperial City Department always delivered the news about Qin Yao to Liu Ji in time.

Before Dalang entered the capital city, the old father ran to Nanlouguan to greet him happily.

Dalang was very moved when the father and son met.

The old father came up and searched him all over.

While searching, he asked expectantly: "Did that vicious woman Qin Yao ask you to bring anything back to me?"

Dalang: "."

If possible, he really wanted to whet his father's appetite again.

But thinking of his pitiful appearance when he was abandoned in the capital city by his mother, the young man was soft-hearted.

Dalang waved away the unshaven man who was standing in front of him.

He walked to the front of the carriage and took out a treasure box from a pile of goods.

Liu Ji took it and opened it immediately.

Inside was a finely crafted dagger, with hundreds of gems of various sizes inlaid on it, shining and colorful, and extraordinary beauty.

Liu Ji took a deep breath, and he knew at a glance that this dagger was more valuable than his life!

Dalang explained: "On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Wangcheng Treasure Pavilion held an auction, and my uncle took me and my mother to see the world."

"When this dagger was brought up, my mother said: It's so showy, your father will definitely like it."

"So I spent a lot of money to buy it. This time when I return to Beijing, let me bring it back to you, father."

Liu Ji touched the dagger again and again, and asked with sparkling eyes: "Is it real or fake?"

"Fake!" Dalang jokingly stretched out his hand to grab it, "If you don't like it, you can give it to me, I like it very much!"

Liu Ji slapped the boy's hand away in annoyance, sneered at him, and put the dagger into his arms.

This was specially taken by his wife for him, so don't even think about it!

Since then, Liu Ji's anger and resentment have disappeared, and the poisonous woman in his mouth has become a dear wife again.

From that day on, he changed his previous image of a resentful husband and returned to his former handsome and cool appearance.

Even when he was busy with official duties, he did not forget to take time to go home and take care of the children.

If he was free, he would take a few people from his family to play around and supervise the children's studies.

When Liu Ji received news from Qin Yao again.

It was when Erlang participated in the county exam for the first time and got a good score.

Liu Ji was in a very good mood. While he skillfully dealt with the false congratulations of his colleagues, he took a thick stack of news about his wife home to share with his family.

But after learning that Qin Yao had run from the prairie to the Western Desert and lived freely every day, Liu Ji felt jealous.

February of the third year of Cangxu.

The Xisha Tusi, located in the southwest of Sheng State, invaded the territory of Sheng State with a fierce and unstoppable force.

Just when the whole court was shocked.

The spy of the Imperial City Division was forced to submit a simple letter.

Why was he forced?

Because their secret base was actually found, and the mysterious and brave man forced this letter into their pigeons.

It said: Someone wants to fuck my sister, I'm going first, remember to continue the logistics supply for me!

There is no signature, and no name appears.

But Liu Ji, who got this letter, knew that it was written by his beloved wife who had been unrestrained and free all his life.

Thinking of the aggressive Xisha Tusi, Liu Ji's heart immediately sank and his scalp numbed.

Wasn't Qin Yao still in the Western Desert before?

Why did she run to the Xisha Tusi again?

She still wants to fight with others, and kill first and report later?

The director of the Imperial City Department slammed the table and roared: "Why don't you go to heaven if you are so capable! Two fists can't beat four hands. If you die on the battlefield, I will be a widow!"

After scolding, it was cool.

He rushed into the palace without stopping, and quickly asked the emperor to order the requisition of food supplies from all over the country to be sent to the southwest border.

As the southwest war reports were sent to Kyoto one by one, Liu Ji was so anxious that his mouth was blistered.

But there was no trace of Qin Yao in those war reports.

Liu Ji was so anxious. Didn’t she say she was going to help her sisters fight? With her skills, how could there be no news at all?

Liu Ji, who was worried, broke into Ziwei Palace at night.

He asked for the job of delivering supplies and went to Xisha in person.

When he arrived at the place, he saw that the Xisha chieftain was under another name, not the original name at all.

He had just captured the Xisha chieftain alive and was drinking happily with the men and women of the Manchu army.

The general of the southwest border defense admired this capable general very much and gave her twelve Xisha beauties as captives.

She ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls, hugged left and right, and was very happy.

Look at him again, Liu Ji. He is tired from traveling, his beard is tangled, his hair is messed up, and his eye sockets are sunken. He is lying in a pile of dead people, so that no one can tell whether he is dead or alive.

Liu Ji Nu started from his heart, strode towards the woman hugging her from left to right, and lifted her wine cup.

In a fit of anger, he got angry like this.

When he woke up again, he was already in the general's tent in the military camp.

The couple, who had not seen each other for more than two years, fought for 300 rounds at night, causing the makeshift camp bed to collapse.

The general wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh, so he consciously gave up his tent to accommodate this fierce couple.

During these days of guarding the southwest border, the couple followed each other, loving and harmonious.

But suddenly one day, Qin Yao took her bloody horse and left again.

This time she left a long letter to comfort her, so the men in the family didn't get upset.

Liu Ji honestly returned to Beijing to look after the family and children.

Qin Yao kept walking and traveled all over the great rivers and mountains.

Sometimes she would ask someone to bring something home, including trees from Lingnan, cats from Siam, pearls from the South China Sea, pine cones from the north, rhino horns from Henan, and butterflies caught in the virgin forest.

She was away from home and rarely came back.

Occasionally appearing in the capital or Liujiacun, it would only be in a hurry for a few days.

But all the family members talked about was her. This person was far away, but seemed to be always by their side.

In the past ten years, Qin Yao's footprints have spread all over the Sheng Kingdom.

Ten years later, Liu Ji still gets excited and happy every time he receives news about her.

He couldn't explain the feeling, as if someone was living another wonderful life for him, so he was always full of expectations.

In the autumn of the eleventh year of Cangxu, three great events happened in the family.

First, Sanlang married into the Xu family and married Xu Jiajia. Two young people who were heartless and only knew how to eat and drink established their own small family.

The second is brother and sister Erlang and Siniang.

Erlang successfully became an official.

Siniang also fulfilled her wish and became the first female security guard in Sheng Kingdom.

Liu Ji doesn't need to worry about these two.

Of course, it was the brother and sister who had the final say, and he, the father, had no control over it.

It was the old father's last struggle not to be controlled by them.

The third great thing is that Qin Yao comes home.

She returned to Liujia Village and was waiting for them in the small courtyard.

After Liu Ji learned the news, he lied that his parents were in poor health and might be dead.

After taking half a year's leave, they took Awang with them and returned to Liujia Village happily.

As soon as he entered the village, he was chased and beaten severely by Old Man Liu who blocked the village entrance with a hoe.

"Liu San, you unfilial son, I and your mother are alive and well, who are you cursing to death?"

"Don't think that you can be lawless just because you are a corrupt official. If you dare to be arrogant in front of your father, I will beat you to death!"

Old man Liu was chasing after him, while Liu Ji was running ahead.

He bumped into two people accidentally and looked up, almost frightening Liu Ji to death.

One of these two people is Zhen Yubai, a teacher at their village school.

The other one is actually the former emperor and now the wise king Baili Qingyang.

He was dressed like a teacher and looked frail. Together with Zhen Yubai, he helped the shocked Liu Ji up, gave him a faint smile, and left.

A group of village children fell behind them, among whom a ten-year-old girl with braids shouted the loudest.

It is the girl born after the second sister-in-law Qiu, and now the new generation of little bully in Liujia Village.

Jinbao is married. The couple opened a wine shop in the county and lived a prosperous life.

Jinhua did not marry out of the village, but found a good young man in the village, took over the stationery factory in the village, and is now the general manager of the factory.

Da Mao is a powerful person, loves reading and is motivated.

It was only two years ago that Liu Fei sent someone to take him to the capital.

I have found the best private school and teacher, and I plan to take the county exam next year.

Speaking of Liu Fei, Old Man Liu was even more angry than when he met Liu Ji.

After so many years, I still haven't married a wife and started a family. I'm afraid I will become an old bachelor.

Thinking of this, Old Man Liu couldn't help but sweep the hoe in Liu Ji's hand fiercely.

"As an elder brother, why don't you worry about your brother? If he continues to be alone like this, no one will help him when he dies, and he will become a lonely ghost!"

"Liu San'er, tell me the truth, did you instigate this?!"

Liu Jigang recovered from the shock of seeing the wise king, and was greeted by his father's hoe.

Feeling the strong wind, his eyes widened in disbelief.

What a deadly move the old man made!

It was a pity that he had not had a wife by his side to practice for many years, so his reflexes had deteriorated a lot. He couldn't dodge the hoe when he saw it coming down.

Soon enough, a hand suddenly appeared in front of Liu Ji and grabbed the hoe that had been smashed down.

"Dad, I know you are angry, but don't be angry yet. Leave this person to me, so don't worry."

Hearing this familiar female voice, Liu Ji raised his eyes in surprise, "Madam!"

Qin Yao turned back and raised her eyebrows with a smile. Ten years have passed. Time seems to have not left many traces on her body, but her skin has become darker and her figure has become stronger.

The full sense of security is still so reassuring.

For Qin Yao's sake, Old Man Liu withdrew.

The couple walked home side by side, chatting about the people and things happening around them.

Liu Ji rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to prepare delicious food for her. Qin Yao sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard and took a nap, as usual.

Liu Ji just took the time to look back at the courtyard while being busy, and couldn't help but wonder, is she a human or a spirit?

If it is a spirit, what kind of spirit is it?

I think it should be a good one, the kind that does not eat people.

It's a pity that they met too late, and he never knew her past.

But now he can still stay in this small courtyard together and cook soup for her, which is very satisfying.
