After becoming a stepmother,I transfered the whole family into farming

Chapter 38: Very Agreeable

A faint smell of blood permeated the valley.

Six robbers, all dead!

Liu Ji blinked twice quickly. He didn't even know when the six people fell down.

Anyway, in the blink of an eye, they were all dead.

Qin Yao wiped the knife clean on the robbers' bodies. The six robbers died with their eyes wide open, and the light in them had long since disappeared.

The six people were wearing tattered linen clothes that looked even worse than Liu Ji's. Qin Yao glanced at them with disdain and reached out to touch something on them.

Unfortunately, they were so poor that they didn't get a single penny, but the knives in their hands looked pretty good.

Qin Yao put away all six knives, stood up, looked around, and threw all six bodies into the overgrown ditch on the right, allowing them to return to the embrace of nature.

There were many wild animals in the forest, and they were cleared out in just a few days.

After quickly dealing with the six people, Qin Yao thought that there would be villagers passing by on a daily basis. She swept the bloody area with her feet and covered the bloodstains with sand and gravel so that if someone came, they would not be scared.

Qin Yao clapped her hands, "By the way, do these six people look familiar to you?"

She suddenly remembered, "If it's someone from around here, it would be a bit troublesome."

Liu Ji shook his head stiffly.

I thought, isn't it a bit deliberate that you ask after you've already killed the person?

He has remained silent since the incident.

Qin Yao thought he was quiet and nodded, "It's good that he is not from this area. There is a rule in Shengguo Law that if a commoner encounters a thief on the road, it is not a crime to kill him."

She raised her chin towards him and said, "Let's go."

Liu Ji followed immediately, and when passing by the gravel that she had swept with her feet, he took a big step and jumped over.

The two returned home one after the other, and it was already mid-afternoon.

After He finished making lunch, she went back home. The helping tribesmen were busy around the house.

Tiles were delivered one after another, and with everyone's efforts, the new house gradually took shape.

Qin Yao was surprised to find that the meals at home were much more delicious these days, and the house had become cleaner. Someone maintained the house every day to ensure it was clean.

The man in the family is now basically at home every day. He doesn't go out to find a young wife to entertain the older girl. He manages the housework better and better, which is exactly what she wants.

Qin Yao vaguely guessed that this should be related to what happened when she returned from Xiahe Village that day.

But what she didn't know was that as soon as the two returned to the village that day, Liu Ji immediately took out the hidden copper coins, grabbed a handful and hurried back to the village.

He first found Mrs. Zhou, and under her surprised look, gave her ten copper coins.

"What is this?" Mrs. Zhou was a little confused and a little scared.

Liu Laosan is not right today. Did he do something bad again?

Liu Ji said with a guilty look on his face: "Sister-in-law, I picked all the vegetables from your field a few days ago. Here is the money for those days. Please take it. But don't tell my wife that I picked the vegetables from your field."

What did you pick? It was obviously stolen!

Mrs. Zhou was furious, "Okay, it turned out to be you. I chased those guys in the village and scolded them for two days, but no one admitted it. It turned out to be you who did it!"

Seeing that she was angry, Liu Ji quickly admitted his mistake: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I forgot to give you the money for a moment, so I brought the money back to you."

Mrs. Zhou didn't know what kind of person this man was. She weighed the coin curiously and asked:

"San'er, the sun didn't even rise from the west today. You've really changed. You stole something and still came back?"

Liu Ji quickly corrected: "What do you mean by stealing? I just bought them. Sister-in-law, remember, I bought the vegetables from you with money. It was definitely not stealing!"

After saying that, he gave her two copper coins, calling it hush money.

Mrs. Zhou found that she could hardly understand the man in front of her.

Is this still the old Liu San?

Liu Ji repeatedly told his wife not to tell him about this. After Zhou Saozi nodded in agreement, he turned around and continued to rush to Grandma Wang's house at the village head.

Granny Wang was sitting at the door sewing shoe soles. When she saw Liu Ji running over, her dim eyes suddenly opened and she shouted angrily,

"Liu Laosan, you bastard, how dare you come to my house and steal my eggs?"

When Granny Wang was young, she fell and broke her calf bone, which was not healed. From then on, she suffered from a chronic illness and her legs and feet have become somewhat unsteady.

Two years ago, the world was in chaos. His son was conscripted and died on the battlefield. His daughter-in-law remarried and ran away, leaving behind only a little grandson. The two depended on each other for survival.

Granny Wang couldn't do heavy work, so she raised a lot of chickens and ducks and made a living by selling eggs. This is how the grandparents and grandchildren survived.

Eggs were Grandma Wang's life. Who would have thought that Liu Ji would come right after she went out to catch insects for the chickens and ducks as a snack.

The little grandson was young, and Liu Ji tricked him into opening the door and letting him into the yard.

In just a blink of an eye, he took away five eggs.

My little grandson counts the chicken and duck eggs at home several times every day and remembers the number clearly.

After Liu Ji left, he counted and realized that he had been cheated by Liu Ji.

When Granny Wang returned home, what she saw was her poor grandson sitting at the door crying loudly. When she heard him say that it was Uncle Liu who had cheated him, she was furious.

She wanted to go find Liu Ji, but she was afraid that this boy might be so reckless that he might hurt her old bones without knowing the severity of the situation. After hesitating for a long time, she decided not to go.

But she didn't expect that even if she didn't go to cause trouble for Liu Ji, the shameless Liu Ji would come again!

Granny Wang picked up the hammer placed by the door and looked fierce as if she would fight him to the death if Liu Ji dared to come near her.

Liu Ji hurriedly said, "Don't get excited. I came here to give you money for the eggs. I left in a hurry that day and forgot about it. Don't get me wrong. I am not that kind of person."

After saying that, he counted out five copper coins, put them on the ground, and turned and left.

After walking out for a while, she suddenly turned around and came back, scaring her little grandson who was about to pick up the money. The grandson ran back home and hid behind his grandmother.

Liu Ji smiled in what he thought was a kind smile and handed over five coins. "I'll buy you five more eggs to give my wife as a snack in the evening. She's been busy these days, so I need to give her some extra food."

Granny Wang was skeptical. Everyone knew that Liu Lao San was full of lies, and none of them were true.

She asked her grandson to bring the money over. When she saw that Liu Ji actually gave her money, she suppressed her suspicion and took five fresh eggs and put them on the ground, letting Liu Ji take them himself.

"Mother-in-law, the eggs from your place are much more delicious than those from other places. I'll come again next time." Liu Ji smiled brightly, picked up the eggs on the ground and put them back in his pocket, turned around, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now, I can finally feel relieved.

Even if the woman at home found out, she wouldn't be able to find fault with him.

So we can't kill him.

He had lived for twenty-three years and had never imagined that someone would kill someone in front of him as easily and casually as cutting melons and vegetables.

What's more unexpected is that I would actually marry this god of death into my family.

If only he had known that he would do such a sin! Liu Ji looked up at the sky. He was regretting it now!

When he passed by the old house of the Liu family, Liu Ji walked in with a sad face. For the first time in his life, he spoke kindly to his stepmother Zhang.

Just to ask her to teach him some cooking skills so that he can please the killing god at home.

Zhang: It was quite sudden.
