"So I will be a big businessman in the future." Xia Qianqian boasted, but she didn't know much about it. She just couldn't think of any other way to make money except building a kiln and firing tiles. Her family was too poor and had nothing!
Yangliu Village has rich kiln soil resources and it’s free. She can build a kiln and then go to the mountain to pick up some firewood and start her own business.
After all, Qin was a woman with no opinion of her own, and she only knew how to worry: "Qianqian, do you really know how to fire a kiln?"
"Yes." Xia Qianqian was confident.
Thanks to Gu Yanjing, she knows a little about firing porcelain. Is firing tiles harder than firing porcelain? If she failed once, she would try again. She believed that those who have the will can achieve their goals. She can still survive without Gu Yanjing!
"Mom, don't worry. I know what I'm doing. I'll take the seeds to town to sell tomorrow and get some money. Then I can start buying bricks to build a kiln." Xia Qianqian said.
Although Qin couldn't see, she could feel her daughter's ambition. Besides, she didn't know how to survive, so she could only believe her daughter: "Okay."
"Where is Yunyun?" Xia Qianqian asked.
"Yunyun has a slight fever and has fallen asleep," said Qin.
Xia Qianqian turned her head and saw Xia Yunyun curled up in the quilt with a red face. She reached out and touched her and found that she had a fever.
Alas, it was like a rainy night when the roof was leaking. There were no herbs and no money. Xia Qianqian fetched some water and wrung it out with a cloth to cool Xia Yun down physically. She waited until Xia Yunyun's fever subsided before going to bed.
Before going to bed, Xia Qianqian placed a stool behind the door, and placed a bowl of water on the stool. Finally, she placed a thick wooden stick beside the bed to prevent any accidents.
She returned to the village with great fanfare today and beat Jiang Li again. Tonight, perhaps it will not be peaceful.
…
That night, Xia Qianqian didn't dare to sleep too deeply.
Sure enough, in the middle of the night, there was a rustling sound outside the door. Xia Qianqian opened her eyes suddenly, listened carefully, and curled her lips coldly: Bastard! On the first night back in the village, someone came to the door!
Qin was sleeping soundly with Xia Yunyun in her arms, so Xia Qianqian did not disturb them. She picked up the wooden stick she had prepared long ago and tiptoed to the door.
Jiang Li and Jiang's father were just outside the door, smiling lewdly: Xia Qianqian and her daughter are both beauties, and tonight, father and son can each have one!
However, in order to prevent the noise from being too loud, they prepared some incense and entered through the crack in the door.
As soon as the incense was put in, Xia Qianqian saw it. She covered her mouth and nose, reached out to dip a little water from the bowl on the stool, and dripped it on the incense.
The incense was extinguished, but the father and son of the Jiang family outside the door were unaware of it and were still waiting excitedly.
After a while, they felt that the incense was almost burned out, so they broke into the room.
The stool and basin behind the door overturned, making a series of clanging noises, which were unusually loud in the quiet night and frightened the father and son of the Jiang family. When Jiang's father leaned in to look, Xia Qianqian hit him with a club.
Father Jiang fell down without even a cry. Jiang Li's face changed drastically, and he hurried to pull his father. He put his hand in, and a stick hit him. He clearly heard the sound of his hand bones breaking, and then cried out in pain: "Ah-"
A sharp cry cut through the night. Qin and Xia Yunyun were awakened, and Qin shouted in panic: "Qianqian, Qianqian!"
When Xia Yunyun saw Jiang's father lying on the ground and Jiang Li screaming, she was so scared that she burst into tears.
For a moment, the crying of the child and Jiang Li's screams alarmed the entire village.
