The important thing was that the two children looked very distinctive, and that man was also a frail scholar, quite acceptable.
"How could this happen... how could she come?"
Goh Fei was shocked as she looked at Brother Goh; hadn’t she said not to come?
"They want to experience rural life. You and Fang Ya remember to smile nicely later, or else you both will be working tonight."
Brother Goh’s words made both of them shudder; they didn’t want to work at all.
Although they hadn’t worked yet, they didn’t want to.
"Fang Ya, shall we... take them to the mountain to play?"
"No. Goh Fei, have you forgotten why you left this mountain? You wanted a new life."
Fang Ya shook her head with clenched teeth. She had fallen several times for being disobedient and thought she could get the Goh Family parents to agree. She hadn’t expected them to be so stubborn and refuse.
In this village, men were women’s sky; whatever men told women to do, women had to do, otherwise, they were guilty.
This was too much; what era was this to still be so excessive?
Women had to work, farm the land, do everything, while men just needed to stay at home, like retired emperors. Boys were okay, but girls were destined to work. Why was fate so unfair...
"But I’m really too tired."
Goh Fei also wanted to resist, but she was tired; she feared she might be the next one to work.
It was now very cold, especially cold, as if winter was just around the corner.
That was when he came to her side, the one she wanted to leave to find her boyfriend.
"We can’t do that, let’s keep pushing and try."
In fact, Fang Ya also couldn’t see where hope was; she was even more exhausted, the pressure inside her even greater, possibly because she hadn’t eaten in a long time.
The men acted as if they hadn’t heard them.
"What are you girls thinking? Isn’t it good to work properly? Women need to work to have food. Otherwise, who would farm all this land?"
Listening obediently would have been fine, but why act on your own? What were the results now?
When they got home, they saw Bai Zhi and the others already drowsy.
At the sight of Xiao Qi, Fang Ya’s heart skipped a beat, and seeing Bai Zhi made her even angrier.
What was Xiao Qi thinking bringing only Xingxing? They should have brought more people.
As the man approached Bai Zhi, her eyes suddenly opened.
"Hi, uncle, you’re back?"
She turned to look at Fang Ya and Goh Fei, relieved to see Fang Ya, who looked disheveled but still had a spark in her eyes, unharmed.
"Why didn’t you sleep?"
Brother Goh was instantly surprised; he clearly...
"Because I didn’t want to sleep; I really wanted to see them."
Bai Zhi snapped her fingers loudly, and Xiao Qi along with Wu Wa also woke up.
What was going on? They had drunk the water, so everything they said before was a lie.
"You say they are Goh Fei’s students, that’s also a lie, right? Tell me, what did you come here for? What do you want to do?"
The man’s face stiffened, and he took out a bamboo tube and blew into it, summoning many people.
"What do you want to do with Goh Fei? Goh Fei is my daughter, and this Fang Ya is my niece."
But Bai Zhi was happily looking at those people.
"Uncle, what’s this? Are we playing a fighting game? I just want to take them away."
