The maid named Xiaohuan sometimes thinks about what kind of life her uncle lived before he went up the mountain, who is in the family, whether he is married, and whether he has a girl he likes...
Later, as we lived together for a long time, we gradually learned some things.
Some of the information Li Yi accidentally revealed made the little maid give up some of her assumptions, but for more things, she was not so sure yet.
As early as the night of Chinese Valentine's Day, when Li Yi became very strange, the little maid already had some kind of guess in her mind.
If the love between two people lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night...
She also pestered Sister Qin, the only educated person in the village, to explain the meaning of these two sentences to her. She only remembered that Sister Qin said at that time, my uncle... I am afraid he is also a person with stories.
Looking at the scroll in her hand again, looking at the beautiful woman, the little maid couldn't help but have random thoughts in her heart, could this be her uncle's former sweetheart?
One is a dignified scholar, the other is a graceful beauty. They were supposed to be a pair that would be envied by the world. They would love each other and stay together for the rest of their lives...
Unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred. The scholar was kidnapped by bandits and became the prince of the stronghold. The beauty sat alone in her boudoir and washed her face with tears...
Although I can't see anything on weekdays, I'm afraid my uncle is suffering a lot in his heart, right?
Thinking of this, an inexplicable emotion suddenly came to the girl's heart. She felt her nose was sore, her heart felt tight and uncomfortable, and tears fell down.
"Xiaohuan, what's wrong with you?"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from beside her. The girl was startled. When she turned her head, she saw Liu Ruyi standing behind her.
"Ah, Miss Second..." She quickly reached out and wiped her tears and said, "It's nothing, I accidentally squinted my eyes just now."
"What's this?"
Liu Ruyi looked at the familiar painting in her hand and looked over.

A night's sleep relieved a thousand worries. When Li Yi woke up the next day, it was almost lunch time.
Naturally, it was too late to teach the naughty children, and no one paid him a salary, so the motivation for work was really insufficient. Fortunately, it was up to him to decide whether to go to school or not, and there were no restrictions.
There was no one in the yard. Liu Ruyi must have gone out to practice. As for Liu Ruyi, Li Yi hadn't seen her since yesterday, and he had become accustomed to her occasional disappearances.
Xiaohuan was cooking in the kitchen, and it was not the case for a grown man to wander around the kitchen all the time. Moreover, Li Yi himself would get bored after a long time. As early as half a month ago, he began to consciously teach Xiaohuan some cooking skills.
When it comes to cooking, you can't just throw something in the pot and cook it like before. Eating should be a kind of enjoyment, not just to fill your stomach.
After a simple wash, I walked to the door and stretched for a long time.
Breathing in the fresh air from the mountains, I suddenly felt refreshed.
The air that has not been polluted by industrialization carries the taste of nature in every mouthful. It is extremely fresh and has a strong smell of meat?
After carefully distinguishing it, Li Yi confirmed that he smelled it correctly. It was indeed the aroma of meat.
The smell didn't come from his own kitchen. Last night he told Xiaohuan to handle the meat himself. He wrinkled his nose and took a sniff. He looked in the direction of the smell and saw the naughty boy named Fang in the family.
He walked over holding a huge sea bowl in his hand.
The naughty kid walked up to Li Yi, holding the bowl of sea in his hands, and said timidly: "Uncle, this is what dad asked me to send here."
Seeing the big bowl of cooked meat in the naughty boy's hand, Li Yi smiled, touched his head, and took it from his hand.
Although there is no shortage of this thing, it is someone else's intention, which is difficult to refuse.
After completing the task assigned to him by his father, the naughty boy ran home without even saying "Goodbye, uncle".
Today there is not only fragrant rice, but also meat to eat. The smile on the naughty child's face has reached the corner of his mouth, and his heart has already flown home.
Not only Li Yi could smell the rich aroma of meat, there were countless people standing at the door of Liuye Village this morning, smelling the aroma in the air and swallowing their saliva.
The situation in the village before our eyes was such that even rice was a luxury item, and the people in the village had not smelled the aroma of meat for who knows how long.
And when they saw a few naughty children wandering around the village carrying bowls of white rice with a layer of meat on top, everyone became uneasy.
Not talking about pork, just talking about white rice, even the richest family in the village cannot be so luxurious.
A group of landless tenant farmers actually had better food than the land-owning Liu clan. I don’t know how many people were shocked.
Thinking back to what happened yesterday, someone finally realized that the things that the big man named Fang and others brought back to the village were really food!
A full ten kilograms of rice!
For them, this is no less than an astronomical figure.
There were already people who couldn't help but ran to inquire about the news, and when they came back, they were all in a daze.
I was worried that I had no place to show off. When someone asked me about it, the big man named Fang and others naturally told them the whole story without reservation.
When the news spread to everyone, it turned out that some powerful new uncle had easily exchanged a painting for ten taels of silver. He bought all the meat and grain.
After learning this news, everyone was left with nothing but deep shock.
None of them had ever seen what ten taels of silver looked like. The old Fang family, who had been too poor to take the blame, could now eat rice and meat. This incident had a greater impact on them.
What I regret most at this time is probably those women who paid Li Yi to paint during Chinese Valentine's Day. When they think that the lanterns they let fly are actually worth ten taels of silver, their hearts bleed.
Using ten taels of silver to put out prayer lanterns is probably the most extravagant thing they have ever done in their lives!
And those who were originally from the same family as Fang Dahan and others, but now can only watch others eat meat, they only have deep regrets in their hearts, and secretly regret in their hearts why they didn't stand up when everyone jointly launched an attack on the direct lineage.
On the two sisters Liu Ruyi's side...
Of course, there are also people who are secretly thinking about going down the mountain and kidnapping a scholar, not letting him do anything, but locking him in a room and painting every day...
But just thinking about it, if any scholar has this kind of ability to make money, how can he be called a "poor scholar"?
No matter how jealous and jealous Zhizhi and others are, they have to admit...
The two sisters Liu Ruyi and Liu Ruyi may have really found a treasure this time!
