Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The government office of Mo City was the only green brick house in the city. It had three courtyards in front and back. The outermost was the government office hall, and the inner was the central hall. After passing through a courtyard, it was the guest room where the county magistrate received guests. The last courtyard was the main room where the county magistrate’s family lived.

The government office windows were all covered with paper, so there was no damage. They could live there after cleaning.

There were still many houses for three families to live in simultaneously. Ji Shuisheng asked Cheng Yu to move the main tent of the central army to the government office, then brought his grandfather and Xiaoying over. The east and west wing rooms were for Qu Da and the others to live in. As for the other villagers, he did not bring them over.

This was because Ji Shuisheng felt that this government office would be the most dangerous place in the future. He did not want the villagers to be afraid and wanted them to live a few days of peace.

However, some people didn’t think so. They felt that Ji Shuisheng knew his background and wanted to distance himself from everyone after finding his father’s old subordinates.

After Ji Shuisheng moved his house to the government office, he saw the injured. The injured person Su Qing operated on yesterday seemed to be in good spirits. At least his life was not in danger.

Seeing that the Young Master had come, everyone was moved to tears. After Ji Shuisheng comforted the injured, he brought Li Daniu and the others to help strengthen the city’s defenses. He was so busy that he did not have time to rest.

On the other hand, Su Qing seemed to be very relaxed. After she finished making the hammer, her forging level had risen to level two. Her war god ability had increased to level 45. Su Qing was pleased and hoped she could continue working hard to level up her forging to level three today.

Zhong Yong held the hammer Su Qing had made for him and happily danced on the street with the hammer technique that Ji Shuisheng had taught him.

This pair of iron hammers was much more handy than his original pair. Zhong Yong’s dance was so vigorous that even the fallen leaves were lifted.

“Master, this is good.”

Zhong Yong waved his hammers and shouted at Su Qing happily.

Su Qing’s lips curled up slightly. She removed an iron ingot from the furnace, and the iron pincers clamped a corner of it as she swung the iron hammer and hammered it. This time, she wanted to make a knife.

Blacksmiths needed a lot of strength. Most blacksmiths had muscles all over their arms and had been practicing with sledgehammers daily.

Seeing his master smash the iron ingot, Zhong Yong stopped practicing his hammering technique. He threw his twin hammers on the ground and ran over to help.

Su Qing stayed in the blacksmith shop for a day and forged a pair of iron hammers and two steel knives. Even when it was dark, she still had not reached level three.

Su Qing asked Zhong Yong to put out the fire while she went back to cook.

When she returned to her house, she saw that it was empty. She didn’t know where her godmother and Xiaoying had gone.

Just as Su Qing was about to look for them, the little tiger and a few children jumped into the courtyard.

“Sister Su Qing, they’ve moved. Sister Xiaoying asked me to tell you they’ve moved to the government office.”

The little tiger was bright and learned every word correctly. His big black eyes were full of intelligence.

“Alright, thank you.”

Su Qing smiled when she saw the children. She suddenly missed her brother, Xiao Chen. She wondered if her mother would fall ill since she left without saying goodbye. Xiao Chen would look for his sister, right?

Perhaps it was because they were a family, but Yang Ruxue, whom Su Qing was concerned about, was sitting in her bedroom, holding her daughter’s little bell and crying silently. She didn’t go crazy like Su Qing was worried about, but she still missed her daughter deeply.

“Ruxue.”

Su Hanxuan walked into the bedroom with steady steps. He had been busy at the shop for a day, but his spirit differed. He would feel physically and mentally tired in the past, but now he was full of energy as if he did not know how to be tired.

Xiao Xi didn’t like any of the clothes in the cabinet. He brought back the latest silk produced by the cloth shop for Madam. Madam said that she wanted to make a dress for her daughter.

Su Hanxuan entered the house and saw his wife holding her daughter’s ankle bell and crying silently. He knew that she missed her daughter again.

“Hanxuan, any news?”

Seeing her husband return, Yang Ruxue quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked at her husband expectantly.

“Not yet, but don’t worry, Madam. I’ve already asked Yang Badou of the Zhenyuan Bodyguard Agency to message Xi’er and ask him to bring Xi’er back.”

Su Hanxuan shook his head and placed the silk on the table. The silk had a faint luster. It was the best material.

“Why don’t we go and find her? This city can’t accommodate Xi’er, so let’s go to Jingshi Dao to accompany her.”

Yang Ruxue’s eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at her husband. Su Hanxuan hesitated. Jingshi Dao was a bitter and cold place. Generally, ministers who made mistakes would be sent there to serve their sentences. Jingshi Dao was next to Tartan, and the people of Tartan were known for their fierceness. The news of eating human flesh and drinking human blood made people shudder.

Moreover, the world was not peaceful now. There were countless refugees, and hunger would drive people crazy. According to his brother-in-law, there were already many cases of disaster victims rebelling. They robbed and killed people to attack the government office. The imperial court was also suppressing them. They killed refugees on the way. Moreover, some bandits took advantage of the situation. It was unknown whether they could arrive safely on the way.

However, he could not tell Madam about this, or she would be even more worried.

“Mother, Father.”

Xiao Chen was wearing a blue satin dress. He lifted the front of his shirt and used his short legs to cross the threshold. There was a sweet smile on his tiny face. His big eyes were smiling at his parents. His voice was so soft that it melted her heart.

Since Yang Ruxue found her daughter, she stopped dressing her son as a girl. He would still look handsome in men’s clothes. However, Xiao Chen was too good-looking.

“Xiao Chen.”

Su Hanxuan bent down and picked up his chubby son. Xiao Chen giggled and kissed his father’s cheek.

“Have you memorized the Three Character Classic?”

Su Hanxuan paid close attention to his son’s studies. Every day he went home, he would test his son’s studies.

“I’ve memorized it. Do you want to hear it, Daddy?”

Xiao Chen looked at his father with his big, sparkling eyes. He seemed very proud and confident.

“Recite it.”

Su Hanxuan glanced at his wife and saw that her eyes were filled with motherly love as she looked at her son with a smile. Su Hanxuan carried Xiao Chen to his wife.

“Ruxue, listen to our son recite the Three Character Classic.”

Yang Ruxue smiled and nodded. She was no longer thin and weak because she needed to take care of her body and wait for her daughter to return. Her cheeks were no longer as pale as before. Now they were fat, and her lips were rosy and shiny. When she smiled, she looked just like when he first met her-quiet and gentle, smiling like a flower.

Su Hanxuan couldn’t help but smile when he saw his wife’s smile. The couple looked at each other, their eyes full of affection, and their relationship was as good as ever. Xiao Chen’s voice interrupted their loving gaze.

“Daddy, I want a reward after 1 memorize it.”

Su Hanxuan was in a good mood. He wasn’t angry when he heard his son’s words. Smelling the milky fragrance on his son, Su Hanxuan couldn’t help but kiss him on his chubby face. He smiled and asked,

“Okay, what reward do you want?”

He had been too strict with Xiao Chen in the past, but now he has changed. The child’s childhood was only a few years. He did not grow up with his daughter, so he could not have any regrets about his son. Therefore, Su Hanxuan was very patient with Xiao Chen now.

Xiao Chen looked at his father with velvety eyes and asked him timidly,

“Xiao Chen has memorized it.. Daddy will let my sister come back to play with Xiao Chen, okay?”
