After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 719 Ring
and many more!

That’s not right!

An idea suddenly occurred to Liu Ji, and he jumped up from his armchair in shock.

Who is doing a drill in the middle of the night? And is he dressed so coquettishly?
Si Kong Jian didn't think that he was promoting him because of their fellow apprenticeship. It was clearly a trap for him!

Liu Ji, who realized it late, met Qin Yao's gaze and suddenly waved at her, "Madam, come closer, I have something important to tell you."

"But don't be too angry after hearing this. As a husband, I will definitely protect my wife's innocence." Liu Ji added seriously.

Qin Yao, who was about to urge him to go to bed early so that he could prepare for the midnight drill, raised her eyebrows and leaned over to hear Liu Ji say in a not-so-soft voice:
"A treacherous plot! This is a common treacherous plot! The so-called representative of the literary world leader is simply a lie. He is trying to send a consort to the Northern Barbarian Princess!"

He had delivered food to the Northern Barbarians. No one knew better than him what kind of place and people the Northern Barbarians were. It was simply not a place where people could stay.

With his unparalleled beauty, if he dresses up a little, wouldn't he be able to charm the Northern Barbarian Princess so much that she would want to marry him?

That's the princess. If she falls in love with him and asks His Majesty to grant her marriage, if he resists, it would be considered disobeying the Emperor's order and his entire clan would be exterminated.

Damn his ancestors, Sikong Jian wants him to die!

Liu Ji was so angry that he shuddered violently and said angrily: "No matter what, we are from the same school. How could he harm me like this! No wonder the teacher kicked him out of the school. This villain is simply a shame to my school!"

After hearing what Liu Ji said, Qin Yao's face turned ugly.

She just felt that there was something wrong with Liu Ji joining Sheng State to welcome the delegation.

Going out of the city to welcome the diplomatic envoys is a good job. People all over the city are watching, and if you perform a little better, you can easily gain fame.

Thinking about the intensity of the imperial examination next spring, which student in the capital would not want to take the opportunity to show himself?
I'm afraid that the threshold of the Imperial Master's Mansion has already been trampled by officials of all ranks in Kyoto, and the places have long been given to the children of officials who are preparing to take part in the Spring Examination. How can an ordinary commoner like Liu Ji have a chance?

But now after Liu Ji said this, everything made sense.

but
Qin Yao was speechless for a moment after taking a look at Liu Ji, who was running around in the hall in a panic because of her beauty.

"You are a little too confident about your appearance."

"But." She raised her lips with a dangerous and powerful smile, "Anyone who dares to steal my people will die!"

Liu Jijun's face turned red after hearing such a domineering remark, and he suddenly stopped being anxious.

"My dear, then, then I will go back to my room and sleep first?" They still had to rush to Beidingmen for drills in the middle of the night, so they had to sleep as long as possible to get enough rest, so as to avoid making mistakes during the drill.

Previously, he had not yet realized Si Kong Jian's evil plan, but now he had realized his viciousness. He had to be even more alert to deal with him, so as not to fall into the trap of Si Kong Jian, that villain.

Qin Yao nodded, "Go ahead and take care of yourself."

Qin Yao watched Liu Ji go back to his room, turn off the lights and go to sleep, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She felt that she had to do something, as Si Kongjian was a villain that was hard to guard against.

With Liu Ji's IQ, he is quite clever, but if his opponent is at the level of a national master, it would be a one-sided IQ crush.

Qin Yao asked Yin Le to take the children back to their room to sleep, and at the same time think of a reason to ask for leave from the teacher tomorrow, so that they could go to the city gate early in the morning to join the embassy delegation in entering the capital.

After sending the children away, Qin Yao came to the kitchen in the second courtyard, found a hammer and a thick wooden chopping board, and took off the silver snake hairpin on her head.

After feeding the horse with night grass, Awang brushed the grass crumbs off his hands and went to check whether the doors and windows of his house were closed. Suddenly, he heard "bang bang bang" sounds coming from the second courtyard.

Following the sound, I saw Qin Yao sitting on the kitchen threshold with a thick chopping board in front of her. She had a hammer in her hand and was hitting something on the sticky board.

Awang walked closer to take a look with curiosity. It turned out to be a silver bar that she had broken into two pieces by brute force. She was trying to make a ring out of the bar. However, the ring was too big and did not look like it was meant to be made into earrings.

The more Awang looked at it, the more he found it strange. He could not help but squat down and asked curiously, "Madam, what are you doing?"

"Hit the ring." Qin Yao didn't even raise her head and continued to fight with the silver bar in her hand.

Awang: “I haven’t heard of it.”

Qin Yao obviously had no intention of explaining. She raised her hand and there was a bang sound, which made Awang's teeth ache.

"Go to sleep and don't worry about me." Qin Yao took the time to wave her hand, signaling Awang to leave quickly. He was such a big man standing there, revealing himself in front of her.

Awang looked at his beloved chopping board with heartache. There was a big groove on it. He seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

Qin Yao looked up impatiently, "What's wrong? Do you have anything else to do?"

Awang shook his head stiffly, and chose to bow to the force, and whispered a reminder: "Silver is soft, you don't have to hit it so hard."

He stood up and left, looking back every few steps.

Qin Yao shrugged her shoulders and continued to work hard.

She originally thought that making two silver rings was a very simple matter, but she didn't expect that the silver block would be deformed after being hit by the hammer.

Qin Yao took a deep breath, slowed down her movements, and tried to pay attention to the force and direction of each hammer, so as to avoid accidentally smashing it into a flat strip and ruining her efforts.

The bang-bang sound lasted for a long time in the quiet night before it stopped.

Outside the courtyard, the night watchman rang the gong to remind people that it was the third watch and the weather was dry, so they should be careful with candles.

Liu Ji was still in a dream, but his body instinctively got up from the bed.

The gathering starts at Chou hour, so he has to prepare to set off now, otherwise he will be late.

There were lanterns lit in the corridor, and the candlelight shone into the room, allowing one to vaguely see the general situation.

Liu Ji was too lazy to light the lamp. He put on his clothes while yawning and slapped his face to wake himself up completely.

Unfortunately, it didn't work very well and I still felt so sleepy that I wanted to die.

With sleepy eyes, he searched for the copper basin and other toiletries and wandered to the door. He opened the door with a creaky sound, raised his eyes, and met a pair of eyes with clear black and white.

Liu Ji was stunned and shook his head, thinking that he might still be in a dream.

When I looked again, a face came directly towards me. I couldn't control my instinct of fear and opened my mouth to scream.

However, as soon as he uttered the word "mother", his mouth was covered by a hand.

"It's me." Qin Yao looked at the man who was so scared that his body was stiff and his breathing had stopped, and reminded him with a contemptuous tone.

Liu Ji immediately breathed a sigh of relief, took away Qin Yao's hand that was covering her face, patted his chest and asked with lingering fear:
"My lady, why are you not sleeping so late at night? You scared me to death."

Qin Yao did not answer. She took out two silvery, round objects from her waist and put one of them on the ring finger of her left hand.

The other one picked up Liu Ji's empty right hand and put the same thing on his ring finger.

Liu Ji only felt something cold and heavy on his fingers.

It was clearly just a silver ring, but it seemed to have wrapped around both his finger and his body.
